83: Chapter 83 Private Talk

Lin Yaner didn't expect Xiao Ran to become so difficult to deal with after Lu Yiyi arrived!

After much thought, she finally decided to dump all the problems on that scumbag to solve!

Xiao Ran threatened her with Lu Yiyi!

Then she would throw Lu Yiyi to Xiao Ran!

"Heh! My dear Brother Xiao Ran, do you think you've got me cornered? Do you really think I wouldn't dare let her in?" Lin Yaner sneered.

Xiao Ran: "..."

Damn!

"Lin Yaner, can't we find a place to talk privately? Do we have to be embarrassed together in front of everyone?" Xiao Ran said somewhat helplessly.

He felt that Lin Yaner was getting anxious. Now, neither of them could do anything to the other, and the only point of balance was Lu Yiyi.

Whoever broke this balance first would gain the upper hand.

But for him to expose himself, he still couldn't do it.

"My dear Brother Xiao Ran! Yaner has said it before, as long as you come back to my side, I'll obey your every wish!" Lin Yaner said with a smile.

Xiao Ran shook his head slightly, showing his attitude.

He was a bit tired; let it all be destroyed.

Let these ex-girlfriends mess around as they please!

Xiao Ran turned his head and looked at Liang Shiqing with a gentle gaze, saying softly:

"Shiqing, I'm sorry, Brother Xiao Ran made you unhappy!"

Liang Shiqing was still in a state of unease, and she hadn't expected Brother Xiao Ran to suddenly apologize to her.

This made the unease in her heart instantly disappear, replaced by a warmth like that of sunlight.

She somewhat awkwardly raised her slender little hand, fumbling to place it on Xiao Ran's face, and then said with a smile:

"Brother Xiao Ran, don't say sorry to Shiqing. As long as you're okay, Shiqing will be okay!"

Her palm was warm, and her words were comforting.

Xiao Ran smiled knowingly, gently lowered his head, and rested his forehead against the girl's forehead, whispering:

"Shiqing, thank you."

Lin Yaner watched this scene with jealousy.

Xiao Ran was once again showing affection with another girl right in front of her!

Lin Yaner suddenly stood up and couldn't help but shout at Xiao Ran: "Xiao Ran! What exactly do you mean! Do you think we don't exist!"

Xiao Ran was about to stand up and retort, but someone beat him to it!

Liang Shiqing quickly stood up, spread her arms, and stood in front of Xiao Ran, saying with a firm tone:

"Don't bully Brother Xiao Ran! If you have something to say, say it to me!"

Liang Shiqing was actually very scared, but she knew she should do this!

Brother Xiao Ran had been protecting her just now, so she also had to protect Brother Xiao Ran!

The girl's action made Xiao Ran's heart suddenly ache.

His heart...

It hurt!

It had been a very, very long time!

It seemed as if the wound had reopened!

She couldn't see anything, she was so weak, yet she dared to boldly stand up and protect him.

He was a scumbag, and a month later, he would hurt her again!

What right did he have to be protected by her like this?

"Shiqing..."

Xiao Ran's mouth felt a bit bitter, and for a moment, he didn't know what to say.

At this moment...

Lin Yaner's mind was also a little dazed.

She seemed to see Xiao Ran's past self in Liang Shiqing!

That time, Xiao Ran was also like this, facing several big men, standing in front of her, shielding her from the wind and rain.

Perhaps, this should be her most precious memory, right?

"Two... two big sisters... please don't bully Brother Xiao Ran, okay?" Liang Shiqing, who had been strong for a few seconds, suddenly became a little humble.

She was a year older than them, yet she called them big sisters!

Lu Yiyi pulled Lin Yaner's arm, preventing her from doing anything irrational.

"Yaner, calm down," Lu Yiyi whispered persuasively.

Lin Yaner glared at Lu Yiyi angrily.

'You silly girl, your ex-boyfriend's new girlfriend is telling you not to bully your ex-boyfriend!'

Now that Lin Yaner was blocked by Liang Shiqing, her temper had subsided by more than half.

To specifically target a poor girl, she certainly couldn't do it; she still had her bottom line.

However, it was impossible for her to give up on Xiao Ran!

"My dear Brother Xiao Ran! Will you just hide behind your girlfriend?" Lin Yaner mocked.

Xiao Ran sighed inwardly, gently pulled Liang Shiqing to her seat, and then said softly to her:

"Shiqing, leave it to me. It's okay."

"Brother Xiao Ran..."

Xiao Ran patted the girl's hand, signaling her to rest assured.

"Lin Yaner! Just state your terms directly!" Xiao Ran said, looking directly at Lin Yaner.

"It's already come to this, let's be direct."

"Xiao Ran! I agree to your request. Tonight at 7 PM, at [Meet You There], you come to see me alone! We'll talk about everything when we meet!"

Lin Yaner also didn't want to get entangled in front of everyone; continuing like this was meaningless and would only make people laugh.

Her inner anxiety had now subsided, so she simply agreed to Xiao Ran's request. Talking privately would be good for both of them.

Xiao Ran heard the name of the restaurant, frowned slightly, and then said:

"Change the location!"

That restaurant was a couples' restaurant, and their relationship wasn't suitable for it.

Most importantly...

That was the restaurant Bai Lu owned!

Unless he was tired of living, he wouldn't go to that restaurant with an ex-girlfriend for a talk.

Lin Yaner showed displeasure; her little scheme had failed.

"Then the coffee shop opposite the University of Finance and Economics should be fine, right?"

"Fine."

"My dear Brother Xiao Ran, then it's settled! If you dare to stand Yaner up, or avoid Yaner... Hmph!" Lin Yaner said through gritted teeth.

"Don't worry! I'm a man who values promises the most! I never lie!" Xiao Ran shrugged.

"Heh heh!" Lin Yaner sneered.

You don't lie?

Then pigs would fly!

"Then, Lin Yaner, please don't disturb our meal anymore, okay?" Xiao Ran dismissed her.

It was supposed to be a nice day, but now all the enthusiasm was gone.

But the food was innocent; they still had to eat it, couldn't waste it.

"Hmph! Yi Yi, let's go!" Lin Yaner got up from her seat, spoke to the dazed Lu Yiyi, and then led the way back to the table next to them.

"Ah? Oh!" Lu Yiyi also quickly followed.

Xiao Ran watched the two girls leave, shaking his head with a wry smile.

He probably wouldn't have many good days in University Town from now on.

"Brother Xiao Ran, have they left?" Liang Shiqing suddenly asked.

Xiao Ran looked at the cute girl, smiled slightly, and replied in a gentle tone:

"Yes, they've left."

"Phew~~" The girl gently patted her chest, slowly letting out a breath.

"Shiqing, I'm sorry..."

Liang Shiqing heard his words, reached out to cover Xiao Ran's mouth, but only covered half of it, yet it stopped him from continuing to speak.

"Brother Xiao Ran, please don't say those three words again, okay? Shiqing feels sad when she hears them!" the girl said with a smile.

"Mm, Brother Xiao Ran won't say them anymore!" Xiao Ran naturally understood what the girl meant.

"Uh huh~ That's good! Brother Xiao Ran! Shiqing is hungry~~ Wants to eat meat~~"

"Alright, little Shiqing~ Brother Xiao Ran will feed you~~~"

Beef in the pot.

Fragrant juice dripping. Springy and tender, with an enticing aroma.

"Open wide~ Ah~~"

"Awoo--"

"So hot!"
