While driving the car, You Qianren asked casually: "Baby, is that the college classmate Chen Ran you mentioned just now?"
"That's right." Wu Qian adjusted her seat very low, crossed her two slender legs on the console, and responded while playing with her phone.
You Qianren rubbed the stubble on his chin with his left hand and said with a smile, "You look pretty good."
Wu Qian glanced at You Qianren and said in a coquettish voice: "You damn ghost, you won't fall in love with me, will you?"
"How can I do that? My heart is full of you, and other women are nothing to me." You Qianren said confidently.
"Hmph..." Wu Qian snorted twice, curled her lips and said, "That Chen Ran seems to be one of the few beauties in our school. I don't know how many boys liked her when she was in school. But now , look at her, she is wearing street clothes, she doesn’t have any decent jewelry on her body, and she can only eat at food stalls on the roadside. She looks very bad at first glance. And the man eating at the same table with her Yes, she is also wearing cheap casual clothes, and she probably doesn’t get along very well. Our dignified school beauty has become a joke now."
"Oh, you're doing very poorly..." You Qianren squinted his eyes, a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
Wu Qian didn't notice anything strange about You Qianren. With an excited expression on her face, she said sweetly: "Husband, drive faster. We are all hungry. Let's go eat steak quickly."
"As you command, my baby."
You Qianren responded with a smile, stepped on the accelerator, and felt a strong push on his back instantly. The speed of the Ferrari 488 soared, and it sped towards the city.
…
Inside the food stall.
After Wu Qian left, Chen Ran's mood seemed a little low, and the smile on his face had fallen. He sat back on the stool, sighed, shook the coke, and asked: "Ling Yuji, tell me, why is this man... How could it change so quickly?"
Ling Yuji looked thoughtfully at the Ferrari 488 going away and asked, "Are you talking about the one just now?"
Chen Ran did not point to anyone directly, but said with emotion: "When we were in college, we were very, very good friends. We had a lot of fun eating instant noodles together in the dormitory, and we had barbecue together at a roadside stall. We drank beer and talked about our ideals and ambitions. We were full of hope and motivation for the future. We even went to the Auto City to work part-time to earn pocket money. It was a great time. No one looked down on the other. There was almost no utilitarian element in our relationship. , but it’s only been half a year since I graduated. How come I’ve changed so much? I can’t even recognize it now.”
Ling Yuji thought for a while and said with a smile: "Haven't you heard a saying? Society is a big dye vat. If you jump in white, no one knows what color you will be dyed into. People can change. .”
"Yes, people can change." Chen Ran tilted his head, glanced at Ling Yuji, then waved his white and tender hands and shouted: "Boss, give me two beers."
"okay."
The owner of the barbecue stall responded loudly, and soon came over with two glasses of draft beer and placed them on the table.
Chen Ran picked up a glass, raised it towards Ling Yuji, smiled like a flower, and said: "Here, I hope we can maintain ourselves in this complex social dye vat, cheers!"
Ling Yuji was stunned for a moment. This side of Chen Ran was extremely inconsistent with her identity as a kindergarten teacher, but it exuded another kind of fatal attraction.
"Cheers, cheers." Ling Yuji also raised his glass.
"Bang!"
The two wine glasses touched each other lightly, and then they both raised their necks and took a swig of beer.
"Buzz! Buzz!"
As soon as the two put down their wine glasses, Chen Ran's phone vibrated twice.
Chen Ran picked up the phone and saw a voice message from Wu Qian: "Chen Ran, is that handsome guy eating with you your boyfriend? I was in a hurry just now and didn't even take a closer look. Tomorrow I will bring your boyfriend with me to the class reunion.
Come here and let us all see what this man who can touch our hearts is really like."
I don’t know whether it was intentional or unintentional, but Wu Qian turned the “school beauty” into a “joke”.
Chen Ran bit his lip, a little helpless.
Wu Qian sent another one: "Oh, by the way, Xu Caikun still misses you. If he knew you had a boyfriend, he would definitely give him a blow. Oh, look at me, I shouldn't let you have a boyfriend.
When a friend comes over, Xu Caikun will embarrass him on the spot, and your face will not look good."
Hearing this, Chen Ran frowned.
Although Wu Qian's method of stimulating generals is superficial, it has to be said that it is really effective.
And Xu Caikun is indeed a trouble. He didn't know where he got Chen Ran's phone number. He has been calling her frequently these days. If Chen Ran goes alone during the class reunion, there's no telling how Xu Caikun will harass her.
At this moment, Ling Yuji took a bunch of grilled chicken gizzards and put them on the plate in front of Chen Ran.
Chen Ran's eyes lit up, he held the phone in both hands and started typing quickly: "Well, he is my boyfriend, I will take him there tomorrow."
After the message was sent, Chen Ran put the phone aside, looked up at Ling Yuji, and raised his fingers at him: "Ling Yuji, please sit over here."
Seeing the smiling expression on Chen Ran's face, Ling Yuji's heart skipped a beat, and he was almost ready to die. Naturally, he didn't refuse. He stood up and moved a stool to Chen Ran's side. He looked at Chen Ran expectantly and asked
:"What's the matter?"
Chen Ran's eyebrows were full of beauty, her pretty face was slightly red, and she said with some embarrassment: "You can be my boyfriend!"
"Ah!?" Ling Yuji was suddenly startled, and his little heart jumped so fast that it almost jumped out of his throat.
Although Ling Yuji did have that intention, Chen Ran's sudden words still frightened him.
"Oh, no, no," Chen Ran also realized that he had said the wrong thing, and quickly waved his hand and explained, "I want you to pretend to be my boyfriend."
"Ah? I'm just pretending..." Ling Yuji was disappointed, but he didn't show it too obviously, pretending to be casual and asked: "Is it because your family is urging you to find a partner? Do you want me to help you deal with your family?"
Chen Ran pursed his lips and said, "That's not the case. We have a college reunion tomorrow and I don't want to go alone. If you are free tomorrow, I would like to ask you to go with me."
"It's a college reunion," Ling Yuji murmured a few words, then nodded happily and said, "No problem, I'll go with you tomorrow."
"That's great, thank you!" Chen Ran said happily.
"You're welcome, it's my honor to serve a beautiful woman." Ling Yuji waved his hand and said jokingly: "And you can get a free meal when you go to the class reunion. Speaking of which, I made a lot of money."
Chen Ran was amused by Ling Yuji, covered her mouth and laughed.
Ling Yuji said: "That's right. You look so pretty when you smile. You should smile more. Frowning and sighing shouldn't belong to you."
"Hmm." Chen Ran raised his head and met Ling Yuji's warm smile. He felt his cheeks feel hot and responded with a voice as thin as a mosquito's moan.
"Come, let's have another drink, for a better tomorrow!" Ling Yuji raised his glass and said loudly.
Chen Ran smiled and brushed his hair at the temples, and raised his glass.
The two clinked glasses again.
During the clinking of glasses, the awkward atmosphere just now dissipated and became a lot more relaxed.
After almost an hour, the two separated and agreed to meet in front of the Grand Hyatt Hotel at 6 o'clock tomorrow evening.
