Chapter 106 - Are They Together Now?

Chapter 106: Chapter 116: Are They Together Now?Although Mu Xingfeng knew the truth, he still felt stifled seeing the keys An Ran handed him.

"Just hold onto the keys. I won’t be staying here much after the holidays. If you still don’t have a place to go, you can come here." Mu Xingfeng said, then stepped out of the door first. He dreaded the thought of the girl going back to school and feared he couldn’t control himself.

When An Ran went downstairs, she didn’t see Mu Xingfeng. She knew he must have gone to get the car, so she decided to wait for him at the community gate.

At that moment, a red Porsche pulled up in front of her, looking exactly like Lu Yi’s model. It was clear that it belonged to someone rich.

As she was pondering, the car window slid down, revealing Ye Sheng’s enchanting face looking at An Ran. With some delight, he asked, "An Ran, what a coincidence! Where are you headed? I’ll give you a ride."

An Sijia originally intended to pretend she hadn’t seen this scene, but since Ye Sheng had already stopped the car, she immediately said with a smile, "Yes, sis. Coincidentally, Ye Sheng and I were going to lunch. Why don’t you join us?"

Looking at the two of them, handsome man and beautiful woman in the red sports car, An Ran couldn’t help but think they were well-matched. Are they... together?

She couldn’t help but chuckle inwardly, remembering how last month Ye Sheng had insisted on getting back together with her, criticized her for clinging to the past, and talked about his so-called physical needs and true love. How foolish she had been then!

An Ran shook her head and replied indifferently, "No need."

An Sijia clearly saw the trace of disappointment in Ye Sheng’s eyes upon hearing An Ran’s words and said, "Sis, why didn’t you come home during the holidays? You know how much Mom and Dad miss you, and blamed me for not waiting for you during my break."

Ha! Miss her? How come she wasn’t aware of such parental affection from her adopted parents? She replied coldly, "I went to work."

Ye Sheng interjected upon hearing this, "Work? An Ran, are you short on money?"

Before An Ran could answer, An Sijia took the lead and said, "Sis, don’t blame Mom. Dad’s company is hard to run, and Mom just wants you to help him. I’m not good at studies, so naturally, can’t be of any help. Among us three siblings, the family can only rely on you. Mom asked you to join the company early because she values you more than me, her biological daughter. But you don’t understand Mom; you’d rather work outside than join the company. Do you know how much that hurts Mom?"

An Sijia’s eyes started to redden as she spoke.

An Ran felt disgusted by An Sijia’s display and sneered, "Of course, I understand her. That’s why I gave all my bonuses to her for your tuition at the Art College. Isn’t that enough?"

So stunned was An Sijia that she couldn’t believe An Ran would mention this in front of Ye Sheng, and she stammered, "Sis... actually, that day... actually Mom..."

An Ran, however, had no intention of listening further. Seeing Mu Xingfeng’s car approaching, she ran over and got in.

Mu Xingfeng had noticed her from a distance, standing at the gate talking to someone in a red sports car. When the girl ran towards him without any hesitation, he felt very pleased. But once she got in, he realized her mood seemed off.

"What’s wrong?" Mu Xingfeng asked as he started the car and passed by the red Porsche.

An Ran shook her head, "Nothing."

Since An Ran didn’t want to talk about it, Mu Xingfeng didn’t ask further, driving her straight to the bus station.

Ye Sheng watched An Ran intently and, hearing An Sijia’s words, felt his heart gripped tightly. An Ran, in the An Family, had fallen to such a state? Not only did they not give her money for tuition, but they also took away her bonus for saving someone’s life?
