Chapter 114: Chapter 114 Aren’t You Going for a Secret Marriage?

Seizing the opportunity that the other party seemed not to have noticed her yet, Ran Xiangsi approached Xing Chen, instinctively tugged on his shirt sleeve, and lowered her voice, "Can we change to another restaurant?"

Ran Xiangsi did not want to continue provoking that family, especially Gu Beichuan, who always seemed so sinister and odd.

Earlier, Xing Chen had overheard Ran Xiangsi muttering to herself that this restaurant was very expensive. Now hearing her suddenly want to leave, Xing Chen was just about to call her stingy, when he spotted the Ran Family in the distance.

His black eyes darkened slightly. Xing Chen looked back at Ran Xiangsi, whose brows were already knitted.

It seemed she had also seen those people, which was why she was anxious to leave.

"Aren’t those your family members? Aren’t you going over to say hello?" His words had a hidden meaning.

Though Xing Chen knew Ran Xiangsi wasn’t Ran Zhonghai’s daughter, did Ran Xiangsi and Ran Zhonghai themselves know?

"I’m not family with them." Ran Xiangsi shook her head, beginning to make excuses for her discomfort, "Besides, aren’t you trying to keep our marriage a secret? Or do you want to openly tell everyone about us?"

Truth be told, Ran Xiangsi actually had some expectations for her father Ran Zhonghai, otherwise, she wouldn’t have returned to A City. She always believed this was her hometown, which is why she worked hard to live here.

Who knew it would all end up being for Ran Zhonghai’s exploitation.

Ever since the last time Ran Zhonghai went to Ran Xiangsi’s home to find her, he had only called to scold her, and then, there was no further contact.

Ran Xiangsi deliberately avoided them, partly out of fear.

She wasn’t afraid these people would harm her; she was just afraid that the last bit of familial affection in her heart would be completely worn away by them.

But while she wanted to leave right away, Xing Chen wouldn’t agree.

He naturally held Ran Xiangsi’s hand that was tugging on his sleeve, and smiled leisurely, "What are you afraid of? Since we ran into them today, let’s give them a good show of strength."

With that, he pulled Ran Xiangsi toward the inner hall without any room for discussion.

Over there, Ran Zhonghai and the others had all their attention focused on Gu Beichuan, and naturally hadn’t noticed Ran Xiangsi.

Once they reached the inner hall, a manager quickly hurried over, nodding and bowing in front of Xing Chen, "President Xing, you’re here. The private room is ready, please follow me..."

Xing Chen just nodded lightly, still holding Ran Xiangsi’s hand, not letting go.

Not until they entered the private room did Ran Xiangsi finally come to her senses, awkwardly releasing his hand, her face flushed, and she sat silently to the side.

After instructing the waiter to bring drinks, Xing Chen waved him off, signaling him to leave.

"You were chirping like a little sparrow all the way here. Why so silent now?" He raised an eyebrow, lazily leaning to one side, seemingly enjoying Ran Xiangsi’s embarrassment.

As for Ran Xiangsi... she had no mood to banter with him now, "Didn’t you say we’re having dinner? Aren’t you going to order?"

She just wanted to quickly finish the meal and leave.

Thinking about the annoying people outside made her feel like she was sitting on pins and needles.

However, Xing Chen shook his head with a smile, "Today’s dishes, you have to order yourself."

"Fine, I’ll order. I’ll go get the menu." Ran Xiangsi huffed, not knowing what scheme he might be up to.

But just as she stood up, a sudden force pulled her back!

"You!" The next second, she was already in his arms.
