Translator: Dragon Boat TranslationEditor: Dragon Boat Translation

Li Jingran was stunned. “Huh?”

He rarely saw Xu Wanwan arguing with him with a red face, but he was interested. He bent down and looked into her eyes. “Why not?”

“She might just want to ask you for your contact information. It can also just be an expression of her goodwill,” Xu Wanwan said in a whisper. “But you didn’t even say anything to reject her. It’s very likely that you’ll hurt her.”

“Why should I consider her feelings?”

Xu Wanwan said seriously, “Because this is giving other people the least respect!”

LiJingran chuckled. “Miss Xu, have I disrespected you?”

“No, you haven’t.”

“Then why do you have to argue with me about other people’s matters?”

Xu Wanwan was about to be convinced by the man. She pursed her lips and said firmly, “But… I just think that you might hurt a girl’s heart by doing this.”

“Just like me. Sometimes, I’ll let my imagination run wild because of someone else’s words.”

“Of course, what I said is just a small suggestion. You don’t have to take it.”

Li Jingran saw the girl pouting her lips as she seriously tried to reason with him. He sighed and finally compromised, “Okay, then I’ll accept your suggestion.”

Under the setting sun, the man lowered his head. The coldness from before faded away, and his expression was exceptionally gentle.

Xu Wanwan then nodded. “Okay!”

She suddenly thought of something. “Oh right, you came to pick me up from school today. Where are you taking me?”

“To the restaurant for a meal.”

“Are we going out for a meal again today? Isn’t that a little too extravagant?”

“There will be others.”

The two of them walked shoulder to shoulder toward the other end of the road.

The girl who had just been rejected was stunned when she saw this scene.

“That girl is so amazing… she was able to take down such a cold man.”

“Lreally regretted asking for his contact information just now. I thought the worst outcome would be to get rejected. Who would’ve known that he wouldn’t even take a look at me?”

“Tsk, she’s a little amazing, but you’re not bad either,” the girl’s good friend comforted her. “But the one who took him down seems to be our school’s top scorer in Science.”

“No wonder then, he’s so outstanding…”

Xu Wanwan followed Li Jingran to a high-end restaurant near the school. She walked silently beside him and looked up to see Zhou Lin sitting in the corner of the restaurant.

She was wearing a tight-fitting black halter dress, revealing her fair arms and delicate collarbones. Her enchanting long hair draped over her shoulders, making her look particularly feminine.

Zhou Lin also looked at Xu Wanwan and a hint of disdain flashed in her eyes.

Xu Wanwan inadvertently frowned. She pinched the corner of her school uniform and slowed down her footsteps.

Li Jingran deliberately paused and turned around to hold her hand. “You won’t mind, do you?”

No…” Xu Wanwan shook her head gently. “I’m just a little surprised.”

She thought she would have dinner with Li Jingran’s friends, but she didn’t expect to see someone like Zhou Lin.

Li Jingran walked to the dining table and sat down, ignoring Zhou Lin as he handed the menu to Xu Wanwan. “What do you want to eat?”

“Jingran, I’ve already ordered the special dishes here in advance.” Zhou Lin’s red lips curved into a smile as she smoothly took the menu from Xu Wanwan’s hand. “I’m more familiar with this place.”

Xu Wanwan retracted her hand awkwardly and sat on the side by herself, not saying another word.

If she had known that she would be faced with this kind of situation, she would not have agreed to come here to eat with Li Jingran in a confused manner.

Li Jingran glanced at Zhou Lin coldly. Although he did not say anything, there was a silent warning in his eyes.

The smile on Zhou Lin’s lips froze. She shrugged nonchalantly and threw the menu casually in front of Xu Wanwan. “See if there’s anything else you want to eat, feel free to add more.”

“There’s no need to add anything else, Just these.” Xu Wanwan put away the menu in a neither servile nor overbearing manner. She raised her eyes and met the woman’s unfriendly gaze with an indifferent expression.

Zhou Lin narrowed her eyes, but her hands, which were placed under the dining table, clenched tightly.

It seemed that she had underestimated Xu Wanwan.

She did not expect Li Jingran to bring her here. After all, it was their date today!

Soon, the dishes were served.

Zhou Lin ordered a bottle of red wine and poured herself a glass, then she leaned over to pour Li Jingran some wine.

She deliberately bent her body to show her looming cleavage. Her every move carried the charm of a mature woman.

Li Jingran didn’t look at her. He quietly moved the wine glass in front of him away.

“No need.”

Zhou Lin froze on the spot again. She pretended to put away the wine bottle easily and picked up the wine glass in front of her to shake it slightly. “Jingran, today is our date.”

As she spoke, she glanced at Xu Wanwan coldly. “If you’re worried about your little maid, I can pay for her to eat somewhere else. Why bring her to join us?”

Li Jingran’s eyes were cold. “She’s my person, so she naturally has to stay with me.”

“Don’t kid around, Jingran.” Zhou Lin could barely maintain her smile. “Uncle has just been discharged from the hospital. If he hears these words, he’ll be angry again.”

“Besides, I’ve already asked around. Xu Wanwan was only adopted by you in the Li family. If she’s not a little maid, what else can she be?”

She said these words on purpose for Xu Wanwan to hear.

After all, she had been feeling very depressed these days.

Xu Wanwan was only just a bit beautiful, so what made her capture Li Jingran’s heart?

“Miss Zhou, I was indeed taken in by Mr. Li, but I’m Xu Wanwan, not a maid of the Li family.”

“Tm very grateful to him, so I’ll do my best to repay Mr. Li, but these aren’t reasons for you to misunderstand me.”

Zhou Lin snorted, “Actually, your relationship is not important to me at all.”

“Tjust want you to understand that the people of the Li family won’t recognize you, and Jingran can only be my fiancé.”

Zhou Lin was very confident, believing that her background and strength could completely crush Xu Wanwan.

Even if Li Jingran’s current attitude toward Xu Wanwan was not ordinary, it did not mean anything.

After all, a noble family like the Li family valued their history and background the most. Xu Wanwan was just a wild girl who had nothing. It was impossible for her to catch the eyes of his parents!

Xu Wanwan pursed her lips and said in an indifferent tone, “Mr. Li’s relationship with you is also not important to me. I just hope that you will treat me with a little respect.”

Zhou Lin frowned. She did not expect Xu Wanwan to be so calm. She did not want to be outdone!

“You’d better learn to respect yourself before I respect you,” Zhou Lin said without changing her expression.

“Don’t forget that Father Li is very afraid of the effects of your existence. If he knew about your meeting with Jingran today, do you think he would be happy?”

These words seemed calm but carried a deadly threat..
