Ye Qingran and the others had booked a hotel beforehand. Even if they were friends, Ye Qingran’s group would not disturb them at their home. This was the most basic form of courtesy.
However, Bai Beibei and Bai Shu warmly invited them to stay at the Bai family’s residence.
After a few unsuccessful rejections, the group followed the Bai duo to stay at the Bai family’s residence.
No matter how cold Jiang City was during winter, it was still more than ten degrees Celsius. Meanwhile, in the capital city, snowflakes were fluttering in the wind.
Although it was cold, the red lanterns that filled the streets were indescribably festive.
Throughout the entire journey, Chu Ruoruo had been by Ye Qingran’s side. She was obedient and cute.
Bai Shu was extremely envious.
During the meal, Bai Shu poured a glass of wine for Ye Qingran. Chu Ruoruo immediately said, “Brother Bai, Brother Ran doesn’t drink, and he doesn’t like to drink either.”
Then, she picked up some food for Ye Qingran. “Brother Ran, eat this shrimp, it’s very delicious.”
Bai Shu could not control himself again, and his face was full of envy.
After the meal, when Chu Ruoruo had went back to her room, Bai Shu immediately looked at Ye Qingran and called out in a very resentful tone, “Younger brother-in-law…”
Ye Qingran turned towards him.
After waiting for a long time without any further words, he asked, “Older brother-in-law, What’s wrong?”
Bai Shu looked puzzled. “I’ve been thinking about a problem!”
Ye Qingran looked at him in puzzlement. “What problem?”
Bai Shu said in puzzlement, “We’re all fresh meat, so how can you have so many girlfriends?”
When he said this, Ye Qingran, Ye Chenfeng, and Bai Beibei were all shocked.
They looked at him in a daze.
Suddenly, Bai Beibei laughed so hard that her eyes narrowed into crescents. “Big Brother, you’re not fresh meat, you’re old bacon.”
Bai Shu:”…”
He had spoiled this little sister for nothing.
Ye Qingran patted Bai Shu’s shoulder and consoled him earnestly, “Actually, this has nothing to do with whether it’s fresh meat or not. It mainly depends on the face.”
Was this consoling?
Bai Shu only felt a sharp arrow. With a whoosh, it directly pierced his red heart.
He said softly to Ye Qingran, “You’ve heard of SL in the capital, right? There’s a new batch of beautiful girls. Brother-in-law, are you interested? I’ll bring you to try some tonight.”
Naturally, they could not let Bai Beibei hear this.
Hence, his voice was very soft, and only he and Ye Qingran could hear it.
Ye Qingran laughed awkwardly.
She reached out and rubbed her neck, looking exhausted. “Thank you, brother-in-law, but I’m too tired today. I plan to shower and go to bed.”
Bai Shu said with understanding, “That’s true. Then, I’ll bring you there another day.”
He then looked at Ye Chenfeng with a warning tone, “You too. Go to bed early. You’re not allowed to intrude tonight.”
Ye Chenfeng:”…”
He pretended not to hear anything.
A smile can handle everything.
After Ye Qingran returned to the room, she saw the message Chu Yan sent her: [ You’ve come to the capital city. ]
This Ruoruo had clearly said that she would give Chu Yan a surprise, but she still told Chu Yan.
She replied: [ Ruoruo told you. ]
Chu Yan: [ En, why didn’t you say in advance? ]
Ye Qingran sent a crying and laughing emoji: [ She said she wanted to give you a surprise, but she told you in the end. She also didn’t inform me? ]
Chu Yan: [ Actually, Ruoruo didn’t say anything. She just sent me a few messages, acting so mysterious. I guessed that she should be in the capital. ]
Ye Qingran:”…”
She was tricked.
She was the one who broke the last suspicion.
A smart man was not easy to fool.
Ye Qingran sent a wave emoji: [ Goodbye, no more friends! ]
Chu Yan also sent her a picture of [ rub your head, don’t be angry ] .
This was the first time Chu Yan had sent an emoji even though they had chatted for so long.
Ye Qingran smiled.
Someone was really getting better at chatting, even learning how to send an emoji.
Chu Yan asked, [ Which hotel are you at? I’ll pick you up. ]
Ye Qingran replied, [ No need. We didn’t stay in a hotel. We followed my third brother here and are staying at his girlfriend’s house. Since you know that we’re in the capital, you can just wait for her to surprise you. Then, treat us to a meal and take us out to play. ]
Chu Yan: “Then what do you want to eat?”
Ye Qingran: “I want to eat everything.”
Chu Yan: “Then you guys wait for me obediently. Don’t run around. This place is different from Jiang City.”
Ye Qingran: “Okay.”
Her answers were very good. However, the next day, the two of them went to the capital university together at Chu Ruoruo’s invitation.
The reason why Chu Ruoruo came to the capital was because she was interested in this school.
Walking in the lush forest and looking at the beige campus buildings, it was as if a small bird that was locked in a cage had suddenly been released. Jumping up and down, no one knew how happy it was.
Chu Ruoruo said, “Brother Ran, this school is really beautiful. Do you want to go to university here?”
Ye Qingran asked, “Is this school very good?”
The names and schools from the book were different from those in reality, and she had never tried to understand them.
Indeed, she did not know what kind of ranking this capital university had.
Chu Ruoruo looked at her in surprise. “Of course it’s very good. It’s the number one university in the country. How could it not be good? I like this school very much.”
Ye Qingran said, “If you like it, then you can attend.”
The smile on Chu Ruoruo’s face instantly disappeared. “I’ve said it before, but brother wants me to go abroad. Moreover, he has already arranged everything for me. I’m too embarrassed to reject brother.”
She looked into the distance.
There were a few students at the end of the road. They came in groups of twos and threes, chatting and laughing.
Their faces were filled with happiness.
Their bodies were filled with the scent of youth.
“I don’t want to go abroad. I’m not familiar with the place, and I don’t speak the same language. I want to stay in the country and meet new friends. I don’t need any cultural differences, I just want to enjoy university life happily.”
The atmosphere suddenly became very heavy.
Ye Qingran comforted her, “Don’t be like this. It’s actually the same no matter where you go to university. You can enjoy university life happily. There’s actually no difference.”
Chu Ruoruo said miserably, “Perhaps.”
Suddenly.
She seemed to have thought of something and her eyes lit up. She stared straight at Ye Qingran and said, “Brother Ran, your relationship with my brother is not ordinary. Why don’t you help me plead with my brother, don’t let me go abroad.”
Ye Qingran:”…”
She could understand Chu Ruoruo’s feelings of not wanting to go to a foreign country.
After all, she had had such an experience before.
However, her relationship with Chu Yan was fake. As an outsider, it was really not good for her to talk too much about such important matters like school.
“Brother Ran, please help me.”
Chu Ruoruo pulled on her sleeve and shook it vigorously. “If you speak up for me, Brother will definitely agree. Brother Ran, Brother Ran…”
Ye Qingran:”…”
Chu Yan was very good to her.
However, their relationship was not good enough that he would listen to her in deciding such important matters.
