White Rich Beauty (15)

"Sister Yue Ran! Sister Yue Ran!"

While Yue Ran was supporting Jin Yao step by step, Jiang Hao's voice came faintly from the corridor in front of her.

She narrowed her eyes and quickly messed up her clothes and hair a little before responding.

Yue Ran's eyes burst with joy. "Hao Hao! Hao Hao! I'm here!"

Jiang Hao rushed over when he heard the sound. "Sister Yue Ran!" He jumped on Yue Ran and hugged her thigh. "Where have you been? I'm so worried about you!"

The two men following Jiang Hao looked at her with varying degrees of worry in their eyes.

Yue Ran smiled as she placed a hand on Jiang Hao's head and said in a low voice, "I'm fine, Hao Hao."

"Who is this man next to you?" Yang Chi interrupted the warm scene with accusing eyes.

He was the first one to discover Jin Yao's existence. Why did Yue Ran find another man again? Yang Chi only felt that a lush green field was growing atop his head.

"Now is not the time to ask; it's more important to save him first!"

After Yue Ran's words, Jiang Yi immediately noticed that something was wrong with the man Yue Ran was supporting. He quickly took out his phone and called the ambulance and then the police.

Central Hospital.

Jiang Yi and Jiang Hao had returned home, while Yang Chi went with a few policemen to recount the situation and also pay the hospitalization fee in passing, leaving Yue Ran alone.

In Jin Yao's ward, a nurse was treating Jin Yao's small scratches. A two-centimeter knife wound on his thigh had already been stitched up by the doctor, and the rest were trivial wounds left for the nurse.

Yue Ran originally just stood aside and watched indifferently at the nurse's robotic actions, but when she saw Jin Yao's eyelids moving slightly, she immediately reacted.

She asked the nurse in a sad and worried voice, "Miss Nurse, when will Jin Yao be able to wake up? When will these injuries heal? Is he very seriously injured? How long will he be in the hospital? Will he be in pain when he wakes up?"

Her eyes were foggy, and there was even a little hint of a whimper in her voice.

The middle-aged nurse smiled when she heard Yue Ran's words. "Are you worried about your boyfriend?" She asked. "Don't worry; children of this age are very resilient, and they can be discharged from the hospital in about a week!"

Yue Ran was taken aback by her words. "No, he's not my boyfriend, and—and—I'm not his girlfriend." Her words ended on a sad note.

Jin Yao was completely conscious, and he also regained clarity. However, he didn't choose to open his eyes.

His heart fluctuated as images of Yue Ran's face and expressions played out in his head.

The Yue Ran when she was worrying about him.

The Yue Ran when she was comforting him.

The Yue Ran when she was flattering him.

The Yue Ran when she was confessing her love to him.

The Yue Ran who would never stop bothering him.

This very same Yue Ran, whose face became more and more distinctive, clear, and bright in his mind.

"Jin Yao's favorability +5"

"Jin Yao's favorability +5"

"Jin Yao's favorability +5"

"Jin Yao's favorability +5"

"Jin Yao's favorability +5"

"Jin Yao's current favorability is 60"

Yue Ran pursed her lips, and coldness flashed in her eyes. It was obvious that she was not satisfied.

The shields of the Lord God must have been strengthened once more. If it wasn't so, how could the favorability score of all strategy targets move up so slowly? She'll definitely have her revenge!

Meanwhile, Jin Yao's mood was very complicated. He recalled the process of his rescue. How could she have rescued him at such a coincidental time? But why did he not feel averse to it?

Jin Yao opened his eyes, ignoring the nurse who was still treating his wound, and looked directly at Yue Ran.

She looked a little messy, and there were even dirt stains that weren't cleaned up on her face. And at the same time, she looked especially beautiful—a down-to-earth type of beauty—a face with no make-up, pure and tender.

"Yue Ran, you saved me; what do you want?" Jin Yao finally found his voice and asked. "As long as it is within my scope of ability, I can give anything to you."

"I want to be your girlfriend!" Yue Ran said it bluntly.

"Okay." His answer was fast, and there was no hesitation on his face.

Yue Ran: ?

Ruan Ruan: ?

She was confused. What happened? Why did he agree so readily? And does this mean that they're dating now? That he's her boyfriend and she's his girlfriend?

Just the thought of it left a bitter taste in her mouth.

Looking at Yue Ran's bewildered expression on her face, Jin Yao couldn't help but let out a chuckle. "Are you so happy you turned into a fool?" His voice sounded teasing. "Come here."

Jin Yao smiled.

Ruan Ruan: ??

"Master, has this Jin Yao been possessed by an evil spirit?"

Yue Ran inwardly let out a sigh. "No, it's just that he really did think that he liked me romantically."

This was the first time that Jin Yao ever smiled in front of Yue Ran. The frozen ice finally melted. The winter snow was washed away, leaving a blooming spring.

No matter how attractive Jin Yao may look, Yue Ran would never be moved, especially knowing how cruelly he treated the original body in the plot.

Still, Yue Ran walked towards Jin Yao and leaned close to him. She was then patted on the head in front of his unconditionally adoring eyes.

Jin Yao's smile did not falter as he uttered a few words that really didn't fit his image: "You are so cute."

Yue Ran: ???

It was almost as if she had met a fake Jin Yao.

"What are you doing?!" At some point in time, Yang Chi had appeared at the doorway of the ward.

Yue Ran was startled by the roar and reflexively took a few steps back, and then she saw Jin Yao stare at her dangerously.

Yue Ran:...

Jin Yao turned his head to look at Yang Chi, the person who had disturbed them. Before he could speak, the impatient Yang Chi said, "Aren't you Rui Qin's boyfriend? Why are you messing around with my fiancée here!?"

Yang Chi knew who Jin Yao was. He would often hear this very name from Rui Qin's mouth and even meet him outside by chance, so he always thought that Jin Yao was Rui Qin's boyfriend!

When Yue Ran helped Jin Yao out of the haunted house before, Jin Yao had always kept his head down, so Yang Chi had no time to identify his face clearly. But now he knows that the person Yue Ran saved was Jin Yao!

Even if he doesn't like Yue Ran, he won't allow her to cuckold him!

However, no one cares about Yang Chi's feelings at this moment. Jin Yao and Yue Ran were glaring at one another.

"Who is Rui Qin?!"

"Fiancée?!"

Yue Ran's exclamation was joined by Jin Yao's dark and dangerous voice.
