Ch 38: Threat
Song Ranran doesn’t like Qin Zui right now. The book describes this stage as Song Ranran constantly avoiding Qin Zui, while Qin Zui relentlessly pursues her, making her afraid of him.
So at this time, if Qin Zui really wants Song Ranran to like him, he shouldn’t keep staring at her.
Being stared at and liked by a man you don’t like is an extremely uncomfortable feeling.
Qiao Rong has tried it before, and she can empathize with that feeling.
“Is this also part of chasing Ranran?” Qin Zui looked at Qiao Rong as if he would hit her if she said no.
Qiao Rong shrank her neck and nodded: “Advance by retreating.”
“Alright.” Qin Zui said, picking up his schoolbag, then turning to Qiao Rong again, “If you come up with any plans, come find me anytime.”
“Okay.”
The reason Song Ranran likes Qin Zui in the later stages is that she discovers Qin Zui really loves her. He appears in time when she encounters danger and gets injured to save her.
At that time, Qiao Rong thought of that plot, and she still had a deep impression because Qin Zui behaved particularly Su.
After Song Ranran graduated from university and went to work, because she didn’t have money, she rented a civil house. As a result, someone downstairs charged their electric car in the corridor, which exploded and caused a fire. Song Ranran was trapped upstairs and couldn’t get out. Qin Zui knew about it, came over immediately, and rushed into the sea of fire to save her, suffering severe burns, but Song Ranran was unharmed.
After that, the relationship between the two people underwent great changes and progress.
However, Qiao Rong thought, she couldn’t possibly let Qin Zui take such a big risk and do such a thing at this time.
She didn’t want to accidentally fail; the risk was too great.
Fu Beijun and Song Ranran walked towards the pharmacy, neither of them speaking.
The sky was getting dark, and the lights along the road were on, illuminating the long and slender shadows of the two people. Song Ranran looked down at the shadows on the ground. Her shadow and Fu Beijun’s shadow were sometimes close and sometimes far away, just like their current relationship.
The current Fu Beijun still doesn’t like her. Later, when his mother passed away, she stayed by his side, and he truly liked her.
But now, because of Qiao Rong, things seem to have started to change a lot.
She just didn’t know if Fu Beijun in this life would still like her.
But she always believed in doing her best and leaving the rest to fate. Although she doesn’t know what the result will be now, before that, she must work hard to make Fu Beijun fall in love with her.
“Beijun, is Uncle’s foot injury better?”
“Much better.” Fu Beijun said. He suddenly thought that he had told his father last time that the Qiao family wanted him to be a security guard. The salary was so high, and it wasn’t too hard. He only needed to stand guard and patrol every day, and he could get off work on time.
Fu De was naturally willing to hear that.
But before that, he was also afraid that the relationship between Fu Beijun and Qiao Rong would become very strange. After all, Qiao Rong had pestered his son to death before, so he cautiously inquired about Fu Beijun’s thoughts. He found that Fu Beijun didn’t hate Qiao Rong that much, so he was slightly relieved.
He was always afraid that his son was too sensible and suffered a lot outside without telling him.
Fu Beijun thought, he was actually not as well-behaved and obedient as his parents thought. Every step he takes now is just to live a better life.
Over the years, he has been struggling at the bottom, accustomed to the warmth and coldness of human relationships. Now, he is just a person who uses any means to achieve his goals.
Song Ranran heard him say this, and then said with a smile: “That’s great, then what about you and Qiao Rong? I saw that she seemed to be very close to Qin Zui today.”
The implication is that Qin Zui hates Fu Beijun so much, but he is so close to him. Could it be that the two of them are plotting against him?
Fu Beijun couldn’t help but curl his lips when he heard her say this: “You don’t have to worry about me. I’m not as fragile as you think.”
When he said this, his tone was as gentle as ever, and with his consistently pale face, he looked a little weak.
◈◈◈
But Song Ranran knew what he looked like in his previous life and didn’t think he was so gentle. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have become like that after his mother passed away.
“That’s good. I’m just afraid that Qiao Rong’s mischievous personality will hurt you. I don’t mean anything else.”
Hearing Song Ranran’s words, Fu Beijun hummed, obviously unwilling to continue this topic.
Song Ranran didn’t want to continue talking, for fear of annoying Fu Beijun.
Fu Beijun glanced at Song Ranran. He thought of Qiao Rong saying that she would help Qin Zui chase Song Ranran.
Today, Qin Zui went to Qiao Rong, definitely because of this matter.
Although his feelings for Song Ranran are average, she is very good to his mother. The two are classmates, their family backgrounds are similar, and their families know each other to some extent.
Before, when his mother was hospitalized, Song Ranran would occasionally visit her.
So, he felt that he couldn’t let Qiao Rong hurt Song Ranran.
Qiao Rong thought all night and felt that if Qin Zui wanted to be liked by Song Ranran at this stage, besides major emergencies, becoming like Fu Beijun might also be an option.
Although she said she was helping him chase Song Ranran, she has always had no experience in love. She is still a single dog and has never liked anyone. How can she help him chase Song Ranran?
Before, she said she would let Song Ranran be his home tutor, so that the two could cultivate their relationship. But what happened? So much time has passed, and the day lilies are cold. It seems that Song Ranran doesn’t have any feelings for him either.
She was also afraid that she would come up with a bad idea and make the relationship between Qin Zui and Song Ranran farther and farther away. Then she would be a sinner for all time.
Thinking of this, Qiao Rong couldn’t help but sigh. Imagination is simple, but to really realize it is too difficult.
But Fu Beijun also came to her.
“Qiao Rong, I have something to tell you.”
During the class break, Fu Beijun pulled Qiao Rong out.
Under the gaze of all the classmates, after Fu Beijun pulled Qiao Rong away, the others went to Su Xiaotang to gossip.
“Are they together?”
“Didn’t Fu Beijun keep a distance from Qiao Rong before? Why does it seem like the relationship between the two is very good now?”
“Heaven knows, you ask me, and I don’t know!” Since experiencing being reprimanded by Qiao Rong last time, Su Xiaotang never dared to talk nonsense again.
At this time, in the corner of the corridor, Fu Beijun looked at Qiao Rong: “Don’t let Qin Zui get any ideas about Song Ranran.”
“What’s wrong?” Qiao Rong asked. After a while, she reacted, “Oh, you mean I’m helping Qin Zui pursue Song Ranran? Because he likes her, Song Ranran will definitely like him too, so I just…”
How should she explain that this is a world in a book, they are the male and female leads, and they will be happy in the future?
“Pursue?” Fu Beijun narrowed his eyes, looking at the pure face of the girl in front of him. He really didn’t know what was in her heart that could make her say such a thing with confidence.
“Helping a thug chase a good student, how could you do such a thing?”
Seeing Fu Beijun’s cold appearance, Qiao Rong thought, is she going to fail?
