Chapter 34: Crazy Xu Yan

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

It’s already time to get off work, Liang Ran didn’t go back to the office and decided to go home with Ji Xuan directly.

This time, Liang Ran had learned her lesson. After getting into the car, she sat beside Ji Xuan so that Ji Xuan could use her as a pillow at any time.

The car started and then sped up slowly. The driver Ji Xuan hired was a veteran, so they never had to worry about motion sickness in his car.

Ji Xuan was very satisfied with Liang Ran’s obedience. His face, which had been sullen since Fan Ze appeared, finally improved a lot. He reached out to hold Liang Ran in his arms.

Suddenly, the driver sharply turned the steering wheel and the car tilted to the side. Liang Ran’s heart tightened, and she was scared stiff.

Almost simultaneously, Ji Xuan quickly reacted by holding her head and pressing her whole body in his arms.

At this moment, Liang Ran could barely feel her own breathing. She could only hear Ji Xuan’s heartbeat.

Fortunately, the car’s performance was good, and the driver’s skills were not bad. In the end, the car stopped steadily.

Ji Xuan heaved a sigh of relief. He first looked at Liang Ran, who was in his arms. Seeing Liang Ran’s dazed expression, he frowned and asked, “Scared silly?”

Liang Ran raised her head and looked at him in a daze. She didn’t say anything, but her eyes seemed to contain thousands of words.

Ji Xuan was stunned. He raised his hand and gently touched Liang Ran’s face with the back of his hand, “So easily scared?”

Liang Ran suddenly reached out and grabbed his palm that was pressed against her face. Then, she said in a daze, “Ji Xuan.”

Ji Xuan raised an eyebrow. “You don’t call me Mr. Ji anymore?”

Liang Ran’s eyes gradually regained clarity. She replied, “Mr. Ji.”

Ji Xuan’s eyes turned cold. He pulled his hand back. “What do you want to say?”

Liang Ran spoke sincerely, “I want to thank you. In that critical moment, you chose to protect me without hesitation. Other than my parents, no one has ever treated me so well.”

A hint of unease flashed through Ji Xuan’s eyes, but he quickly covered it up. He said calmly, “No need to thank me. I didn’t have any intention to save you.”

It was completely subconscious.

But Ji Xuan did not say that.

The driver was still shaken, patting his chest for a long time before speaking, “I’m sorry, boss. That girl was too crazy. She stood directly in front of the car, and I don’t know what else to do.”

Ji Xuan did not pay attention to the road earlier, and only realized what was going on after hearing what the driver said. His face darkened as he opened the door and got out.

Liang Ran followed closely behind him. It was not until she got out of the car that she realized who the driver was talking about.

Xu Yan had stopped them yesterday, and now she was here again?

Liang Ran was a little impatient.

Ji Xuan was even more frustrated. This time, he was really angry. This could be seen from his dark eyes.

Xu Yan looked at Ji Xuan’s expression and was obviously scared. When the car almost ran over her, she was terrified. Although the driver avoided hitting her, she clearly saw the car almost overturn.

If that’s the case, there would definitely be casualties in the car. Xu Yan felt a lingering fear and looked at Ji Xuan carefully. “Brother Xuan, I didn’t do it on purpose. The people in your company didn’t let me in. I have something to say to you, so….”

“So you chose to stop the car directly?”

Ji Xuan coldly interrupted her.

Xu Yan looked like she was about to cry and said, “I have no other choice.”

Ji Xuan looked at her coldly. “Piss off. Don’t test my patience.”

Xu Yan’s eyes turned red and she suddenly looked at Liang Ran behind Ji Xuan and angrily said, “I came all the way back to the country to find you, and you want to send me away for her? What’s so good about her? She’s just a woman who approached you for money.”

Liang Ran touched her nose. Xu Yan was telling the truth, but this girl was also quite terrifying. She dared to do something as crazy as stopping a car.

She took two steps forward and stood beside Ji Xuan. She held Ji Xuan’s arm and smiled at the furious Xu Yan.

“Miss Xu’s last sentence is right. I did approach Mr. Ji for money. Mr. Ji knows this very well,” Liang Ran said and turned to look at Ji Xuan. “Am I right, Mr. Ji?”

Ji Xuan didn’t say anything and tacitly agreed with her.

Xu Yan’s eyes were almost spitting fire, and she angrily said, “What makes this shallow woman better than me?”

Ji Xuan’s entire body was filled with impatience. He said indifferently, “Better than you in every way.”

The anger in Xu Yan’s eyes was gradually replaced by disappointment. She looked at Ji Xuan as if she was looking at a scumbag. “It was her before, and now it’s this Liang Ran. Why can’t you ever see me?”
