Leng Xiao knew that Ye Qingran was waiting for Chu Yan. He deliberately said, “He probably won’t come to pick you if something comes up. Isn’t it the same if I send you?”
Ye Qingran said, “It’s too different. Moreover, if it’s him, I’m willing to wait.”
Leng Xiao’s face darkened and he did not say anything.
Ye Qingran tilted her head slightly and looked at him. She said frankly, “I feel that you don’t like me at all. It’s probably because I changed from a man to a woman. You have some strange thoughts in your heart and you think that you like me.”
Leng Xiao said, “You don’t have to accept me, but don’t doubt my heart. As for whether I like you or not, I’ve thought about it again and again. It’s not because I know that you’re a girl that I like you.”
He had liked her a long time ago, but he had thought that she was a man and did not want to continue.
Ye Qingran’s original intention was to hope that Leng Xiao would give up.
But it seemed that he had made up his mind.
It was probably impossible to make him give up using words.
At this moment, the glass door of the restaurant was pushed open and a tall and handsome man walked in.
Ye Qingran was a distance away from the restaurant entrance. She did not see the man who came in until the sound of the man’s footsteps was heard clearly.
She followed the sound and saw Chu Yan in a black suit.
Ye Qingran immediately smiled and waved at Chu Yan.
Chu Yan also saw Leng Xiao, who was sitting next to her. His cold eyes suddenly turned as cold as a lake and he narrowed his eyes dangerously.
Leng Xiao naturally saw Chu Yan as well. He leaned back on the chair and looked like he was ready to face the enemy.
However, he saw Ye Qingran put down her chopsticks and stood up immediately. “Brother, you’re here.”
Chu Yan reached out his hand and rubbed her little head lovingly. He then put his hand on her shoulder and said, “Okay, let’s go.”
Leng Xiao’s gaze tensed up when he saw his action.
He suppressed the displeasure in his heart and greeted with a smile, “We meet again, Mr. Chu.”
Chu Yan looked at him indifferently and nodded perfunctorily as a response. Then, he ignored him and walked away with Ye Qingran in his arms.
Leng Xiao clenched his fists but did not follow him.
The world’s most arrogant and haughty Leng Xiao felt discouraged.
On the other side, Murong Yichen also saw it. He walked over and asked, “Who is that man?”
Leng Xiao replied coldly, “Chu Yan.”
Murong Yichen said in surprise, “He is Chu Yan. He looks familiar, I seem to have seen him somewhere before.”
Leng Xiao looked at him. “Where have you seen him before?”
Murong Yichen said, “I have to think about it.”
Leng Xiao:”…”
…
On the other side, Ye Qingran followed Chu Yan out of the restaurant.
Sitting in the car, she smiled and apologized to Chu Yan, “Brother, thank you for today. This Leng Xiao is too difficult to deal with.”
The man’s aura was a little cold. He looked at Ye Qingran indifferently, his eyes clearly devoid of warmth. “Since you find him annoying, why did you come out to eat with him?”
Ye Qingran said, “Who went out to eat with him? I went out to eat with my mother and coincidentally bumped into Leng Xiao and Murong Yichen. My mother quickly finished her meal and went to deliver food to my father, leaving me alone. The two of them insisted on coming over to be friends.”
When Chu Yan heard this, his expression instantly softened.
The faint coldness also melted in an instant.
He hummed softly. “Is that so?”
Ye Qingran leaned forward and stared at him. “Otherwise, what do you think it would be? Leng Xiao sends me messages every day and always asks me out for a meal. I haven’t even agreed to it once. Looks like I have to agree to it next time.”
Chu Yan’s tone suddenly became overbearing and tyrannical. “You’re not allowed!”
Ye Qingran said, “Why not?”
Chu Yan said, “Because you said that you wanted to pursue me.”
Ye Qingran was stunned and her eyes suddenly widened. She was especially surprised. “What? I said, I… I want to pursue you?”
Unlike her little self-shocked expression, Chu Yan was still very calm.
He snorted softly. “Why are you so surprised? Don’t tell me that you don’t even remember what you said.”
Ye Qingran gulped and said slowly, “When I was drunk last time, you lied to me and said that I pressed you against the wall and forced a kiss on you.”
The corner of Chu Yan’s mouth curled. “Unfortunately, you forgot. I don’t know if you still remember this time.”
“This, that…” The tip of Ye Qingran’s ears were red.
The memory of the forced kiss was very clear.
She did not even need to think about it. This image would always appear automatically in her mind from time to time.
She pursed her lips. “I really said… that I want to, want to pursue you.”
Chu Yan nodded.
Ye Qingran said, “Then you agreed to let me pursue you.”
Chu Yan spoke very slowly, enunciating each word clearly. “You didn’t give me the right to refuse. You said that I couldn’t refuse because the person who wanted to pursue me was you and not me.”
Ye Qingran:”…”
Chu Yan must be lying to her. He must be lying to her.
It was the same last time, she felt that Chu Yan would not lie to her. She felt that Chu Yan was an aloof and reserved person who would not joke with her.
In the end, he had been lying very calmly.
Ye Qingran thought about it and shook her head. “I don’t believe you. You must be lying to me.”
Chu Yan placed his slender fingers on the steering wheel and turned to look at Ye Qingran. “If you don’t believe me, then forget it. If you don’t want to pursue me, then I’ll do it.”
Ye Qingran looked at Chu Yan in astonishment.
What did she just hear? Did Chu Yan mean that he was pursuing her?
Chu Yan looked at her lovingly and continued, “And I won’t copy you. I’ll pursue you properly.”
Her heartbeat quickened and she held her breath. “You really want to pursue me?”
Chu Yan grunted. “You don’t want to pursue me. Then I can only pursue you instead.”
An indescribable ambiguous atmosphere slowly rose in the car.
Ye Qingran licked her lips. “Then, will you suddenly stop pursuing me one day?”
Chu Yan chuckled and asked happily, “What do you think?”
Ye Qingran felt her cheeks burning. She was afraid that they were already as red as blood. She muttered, “How would I know? Erm, you should start driving first. Leave first.”
Chu Yan did not start the car.
He reached out and rubbed her head before pressing on his chest. “I really don’t know if I should call you a coward. After all, you dare to do it, but you don’t dare to say it.”
Ye Qingran’s heart skipped a beat. She felt his gentle aura, as if it was going to melt her.
She couldn’t take it. She couldn’t take it. With such a beauty in front of her, a heavenly dish was in her bosom.
It was really the greatest test in the world.
However, if he said that she wouldn’t pursue him, so he would pursue her. Did that mean that he was the same as her.
After all, if he didn’t like her, who would pursue her.
Ye Qingran took a shallow breath. She was afraid that she was too serious and there was no turning back. She deliberately asked in a joking tone, “Chu Yan, are you confessing and saying that you like me?”
