178: Chapter 178 Let’s worship him together

With the obstruction gone, Jiang Siyue reached out and opened the cabinet. It was full of clothes, nothing special.

She frowned slightly, bent down, and looked under the table.

Then, she discovered a rather large wooden box. It had a lock, but it wasn't locked.

The box was carved with many small figures of men and women, full of intricate details and lifelike!

They all looked like illustrations of couples, but they were decent drawings!

However!

One particular drawing caught her attention... A man was lying in a woman's arms, seemingly sleeping peacefully... But the faces of those two small figures seemed a little familiar!

She slowly reached out her hand... When Xiao Ran returned to the dormitory door, he saw Zhang Yide being pinned against the balcony.

“Second Brother! She's about to touch your stuff!”

“Damn it!”

Xiao Ran didn't dare to hesitate. As soon as he entered the door, he saw Jiang Siyue reaching for his treasure chest!

“Don't move! There's a snake in there!” He quickly stopped her.

“A snake?” Jiang Siyue's slender hand froze in mid-air.

She was most afraid of snakes!

Xiao Ran breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, he arrived quickly; his secret would have been discovered just a few seconds later!

Xiao Ran took a few steps forward, then, before she could react, he squatted down and quickly locked the box.

“That's right! There's a snake in there! Don't you dare touch it!” Xiao Ran wiped a cold sweat from his brow.

Seemingly out of fear of snakes, Jiang Siyue's delicate brows furrowed. She slowly retreated a few steps, then commanded, “Someone, help me open the box!”

“Yes!” Two bodyguards immediately walked over.

Xiao Ran: “...”

Older Sister Jiang!

Are you out of your mind!

Who does things like that!

“Stop, stop, stop!” Xiao Ran blocked the two bodyguards and looked at the girl: “Sister Siyue! Why are you so interested in my box!”

A single “Sister Siyue” instantly bridged the gap between them.

“Xiao Ran, since you call me Sister Siyue! Then tell me, what's with the paintings on the box?” Jiang Siyue asked, full of suspicion.

“Paintings?” Xiao Ran shrugged, “They came with the box.”

Am I supposed to tell you that I can carve too?

“Oh, really?” Jiang Siyue narrowed her eyes, her bright gaze revealing a dangerous aura: “Then tell me, why are there portraits of Han Li and me on the box?”

“I DIY'd them when I bought the box, so I said they came with the box!” Xiao Ran continued.

No matter what, he wouldn't let her discover what was inside!

Jiang Siyue's gaze was as sharp as an eagle's, as if she could see through everything: “Are you sure?”

“I'm sure!” Xiao Ran nodded seriously.

Jiang Siyue pondered for a moment, then her brows relaxed, and her expression returned to normal: “I believe you!”

‘Phew~’

Seeing that she had given up pursuing the matter, Xiao Ran finally let go of the worry in his heart.

“Sister Siyue, is there something you need me for?” Xiao Ran asked.

“Han Li's death anniversary is in a few days; you should go see him too,” Jiang Siyue said softly.

Death anniversary?

Hearing that word, Xiao Ran was stunned.

Didn't she mean for him to go pay respects to himself?

What kind of situation was this?

This was beyond absurd, ridiculously absurd!

“What, you're unwilling?” Jiang Siyue's eyes narrowed slightly, a cold light flickering in them.

It was as if if he refused, she would make him regret it on the spot.

“Go, go, go! Of course I'll go!” Xiao Ran quickly surrendered.

This Older Sister Jiang, in front of Han Li, was like a little rabbit.

In front of outsiders, she directly transformed into a hunter!

This was also why he was afraid of her knowing the truth.

“Good! I'll pick you up on the 1st, and we'll go together!” Jiang Siyue said, leaving no room for doubt.

“The 1st won't work, I'm busy. How about the 2nd!” Xiao Ran shook his head.

On the 1st, he still had to arrange... the earliest would have to be the 2nd.

“Okay, then the 2nd.” Jiang Siyue was still very accommodating when it came to Han Li's friends.

“Then it's settled.”

After sending Jiang Siyue away, Xiao Ran carried the box back to his villa overnight!

Now almost all his ex-girlfriends in the local area knew his school and dormitory; this place was no longer safe!

He had to move his base!

Before leaving the dormitory, he even harshly criticized Old Hei!

If it weren't for Old Hei's big mouth, Xiao Ran wouldn't have been so passive!

---

Time flew by.

August 1st morning, cloudy turning clear, 30°C ~ 36°C.

Xiao Ran lay in his room, idly scrolling through the news.

“Shock! Tycoon's vendetta? The car accident of Tang Shihao's Granddaughter, a famous entrepreneur, is suspected to be man-made?”

“Tang Shihao offers a hundred million yuan medical fee to find a famous doctor to awaken his Granddaughter, Tang Wanxin!”

“Breaking! Jinling City's Second Young Miss Zhang is suspected of running away from home...”

“After Sun Xin颖's concert accident! Xiao Yu Group's stock price has plummeted again and again...”

“Tonight at 9 PM! The 'Clear Sky Meteor Shower' will be visible in the eastern region...”

“Knock knock knock~~ Click click click”

“Knock knock knock~~ Click click”

“Xiao Ran Gege! The sun's already shining on your butt!”

Xu Qianqian's voice came from outside the door, seemingly with a hint of resentment in her tone because the door was locked!

It was one thing to guard against villains!

But even guarding against a lady like her!

Hmph!

“Bang!”

The little loli kicked the door directly, then turned to get the porridge.

Xiao Ran sat up and stretched.

He had learned his lesson long ago!

Lock the door when sleeping!

Otherwise, who knows, he might wake up one day and find himself unknowingly sleeping naked!

Then he'd never be able to clear his name.

“Today is the 30th day!” Xiao Ran mumbled, then opened the system panel.

“Remaining Lifespan: 787 days 7 hours 11 minutes”

With his efforts these past few days, his lifespan value had increased quite a bit.

But overall, the intensity was still not enough!

“System, exchange for the Eye Treatment Card!” Xiao Ran commanded.

“Ding! Spent 365 days of lifespan! Already placed in inventory.”

“Remaining Lifespan: 422 days 7 hours 11 minutes”

Xiao Ran took out the treatment card and examined it carefully.

It was rectangular, about the size and thickness of a bank card.

However, this card was entirely white, with a list of treatable diseases on it.

“This thing, it cost a year of lifespan...”

“Shiqing, oh Shiqing...”

“Xiao Ran Gege! If you don't come out for breakfast soon, we'll eat your share!” The little loli shouted fiercely.

“Got it!” Xiao Ran replied with a smile.

This girl was becoming more and more like a nanny, even providing wake-up service!

If it could be used...
