Quick Transmigration: Irresistible Beauty
Chapter 176 - 176: White Lotus Transfer Student (6)

This arrangement would naturally only benefit Zhi Lan's boss.

Deducting a day's wages does not mean that there will be no wages received if Zhi Lan does not go to work today, but that she will receive no wages if she goes to work tomorrow.

Does this not mean, for Zhi Lan's boss, that there will be a free employee working for him tomorrow night? This was the reason why he was so "kind" as to let her take a leave today.

Zhi Lan clenched her hand tightly on her phone, and her other free hand was clenched into a fist. Her boss was clearly bullying people in broad daylight! However, she had absolutely no choice but to agree to this unequal arrangement because her only source of income was working at this job.

Thinking of this, Zhi Lan could only helplessly loosen her hand a little on her phone and say, "Thank you, boss."

…

The collocation of the two men and the two women, especially when three of the four of them are still the most important people on campus, made the students who came and went not help but keep turning their heads to look at them.

Zhi Lan was not used to such eyes. She subconsciously took a few steps back and ducked behind Yue Ran for cover.

"Lan Lan? What is wrong with you?" Yue Ran asked questioningly, looking a little ignorant.

"No, I am fine," Zhi Lan answered.

Seemingly able to see the girl's unease, Qi Yu, who was in front, turned his head back to say, "Let us go together."

Yue Ran glanced at the male protagonist with a half-smile expression on her face before saying, "The car is already waiting for us outside."

"Ran Ran, is this the car that you have booked online on your phone?" Ye Chen asked.

"Ah, no," Yue Ran answered with a shake of her head. "I asked my driver to come and send us for one trip."

"Okay, that is great!" Ye Chen said it with a laugh. "Then let us go now! I could hardly wait!"

"Okay," Yue Ran replied with a sweet smile.

Time gradually passed in the chatter of the four. Naturally, most of the time, it was the cooperation of both Ye Chen and Yue Ran that helped liven up the dead silence.

…

"Ran Ran, do you want to eat this?" Ye Chen asked as he took out all the meat from the shell of a hairy crab that he liked the most. "I have removed all the meat from a hairy crab for you."

Ye Chen held the plate of crab meat up for Yue Ran as if he were holding up a treasure to offer it to her with both hands.

Yue Ran let out a small chuckle and said, Yes, thank you, A Chen."

The young girl took the plate and placed it in front of her, looking cute and sweet.

Ye Chen only felt that his heart had started to get sick again. After all, it was beating so loudly and quickly that he almost thought that he had a heart problem.

After eating the crab meat that was offered to her, Yue Ran held the glass of wine beside her and raised it as she said, "First of all, I would like to thank the class monitor and A Chen for helping me move my new desk. And then, when I saw Lan Lan again, I was very happy. I am spending my first day at No. 1 High School with a great start!"

"Well, for me, it is very nice to meet Ran Ran," Ye Chen said with a silly smile, raising his glass of wine up high. "Cheers!"

Qi Yu, the male protagonist, was also infected by the lively spirit of the young girl, and the smile on the corners of his mouth never came down.

Seeing that the three of them raised their glasses of wine, Zhi Lan only felt a little anxious.

"But, Ran Ran," Zhi Lan started a little hesitantly. "You have never been able to drink alcohol well before."

Yue Ran smiled and replied, "Lan Lan, it is alright. I know that my alcohol tolerance is low, so I will just take a sip. I know my body well." After saying so, she once again raised her lowered glass and said, "Come on, everybody, let us have a toast!"

Hearing Zhi Lan say this, Ye Chen put down his glass, frowned worriedly, and said, "Ran Ran, how about me getting a glass of coke for you instead?"

"No need," Yue Ran said. "It is fine; I can still drink a little."

As if this were not enough to convince the young man, after the young girl had finished speaking, she called out the young man's name with a coquettish hook that no one could resist.

"A Chen," Yue Ran said. Her tone of voice went from high to low and back to high again.

How could Ye Chen stand this? He lowered his head, seemingly trying to look at another place, as he stroked his forehead with one hand, trying hard to cover up the big smile on his face that just would not go away. But it seems that he has failed big time.

"Okay," Ye Chen said as he finally compromised. "Then just that one glass and not more."

"Okay," Yue Ran answered happily with a nod of her head.

It was just that no one had expected that what Yue Ran had meant about her having a low alcohol tolerance and thus drinking a sip was really just one small sip.

"Ran Ran?" Zhi Lan asked slowly.

Zhi Lan touched and patted the young girl's shoulder, who was lying with her head and hands down on the table, but she did not get any response except for a few occasional murmurs.

"Ran Ran?" Zhi Lan asked again, trying to gently ask the unconscious Yue Ran to wake up. "What should I do? Ran Ran is completely drunk. And when we came here, Ran Ran had asked her driver to drive back to her home first."

Zhi Lan subconsciously turned to Qi Yu for help.

"Do you know where her home is?" Qi Yu asked Zhi Lan.

"I will just take her back," Ye Chen said.

The two young men almost spoke simultaneously, and both reflexively made brief eye contact with one another. The atmosphere unknowingly tensed a little.

"I… I do not know," Zhi Lan answered honestly and a little hesitantly. "Ran Ran and her family do not live in the place where they used to live three years ago."

"Hmm." Qi Yu hummed a little before saying, "Okay, then I will take a look at the class information sheet."

Qi Yu is the class monitor, and naturally, he has all the information sheets of his classmates in case anything like this were to happen. This information was entrusted to him by the class homeroom teacher.

After looking over it for a while, Qi Yu finally spotted Yue Ran's name, read her address, and then read out loud in surprise, "Ventura Emerald Gardens?"

"Hm?" Ye Chen hummed in question and asked, "Is that not the name of your residential house complex, A Yu?"

Qi Yu did not expect it to be so coincidental. He did not expect Yue Ran to be his neighbor.

"Yes," Qi Yu replied. "Yue Ran lives right next to my house."

"Oh, then that is great!" Ye Chen exclaimed. "The three of us can just go together."

Ye Chen felt very happy at this time. This meant that he would have a reason to go to Ran Ran's house in the future.

"Hm? The three of us?" Qi Yu questioned the young man.

Qi Yu glanced at Ye Chen with a gentle smile on his face. His eyes looked a little more lively and playful as he asked, "Is your way home on the way with us?"

Ye Chen immediately let out a fake cough as he said, "I only want to take Ran Ran back to her home safely."

"There are two girls here," Qi Yu said.

Seeing that the topic had come to her, Zhi Lan quickly waved her hands from side to side and said, "No, it is alright. I can just go home by myself. You two can send Ran Ran back safely."

"No," Qi Yu said a little sternly. "It is already so late at night. It is very unsafe for a girl to travel alone in the dark. Not to mention that your home address is not far away from A Chen's house, so it would be just right for A Chen to walk with you."

Hearing the young man's caring words, Zhi Lan shyly nodded as she responded with a low hum. Now, there is no excuse for her to refuse this.

"Then, you and Ran Ran will go back together, and I am going to take her with me?" Ye Chen asked with slightly furrowed brows.

"Hm, yes," Qi Yu said lightly with a nod of his head.

"Well, okay, great," Ye Chen replied a little too unenthusiastically.

Although the young man was a little reluctant to leave Yue Ran, he also felt that he should really not let a young girl go home alone at night, or it would not be safe for her.

"Then, we will go first," Ye Chen said out of duty.

"Yes," Qi Yu said.

"Then, take good care of Ran Ran," Ye Chen said.

"Understood," Qi Yu answered, smiling a little helplessly.
