They all want to control me!

Chapter 75 The Incompetent Wife

"Holy crap, Ran-ge, you..."

"Let me introduce you, this is my sister, Lin Le."

Lin Ran, expressionless, slapped Su Lingle, who was smiling and waving her hand beside her, on the back of the head and said calmly:

"Lele, behave yourself, don't embarrass your brother in public."

"You...!" Su Lingle was inexplicably slapped and was angry, but after hearing the threat in Lin Ran's words, she tilted her head and said with a forced smile, "Okay, geigei~"

That "brother" sounded like it was trying to strangle Lin Ran.

Xiao Nan and Gao Yan were shocked and looked at each other in disbelief.

Xiao Nan pulled Lin Ran over, quickly glanced back at Su Lingle, and whispered:

"Ran-ge, what's going on? Isn't this your childhood sweetheart? How did she suddenly become your sister?"

"Are you finally going to let go of your shackles and become a scumbag? No, you're going to German orthopedics clinic?" Gao Yan became even more emotional and questioned him directly.

"Things have taken a bit of a turn..."

Lin Ran twitched the corners of his mouth. At first, Su Lingle wanted to attend the dinner party as a couple, but later she herself felt that this identity was too far-fetched, so she thought of the brother-sister identity. It just so happened that Su Lingle had been spending every day with Lin Ran recently, so she took the opportunity to have a proper identity.

As for whether I'll be recognized... I can't even recognize all my own classmates, so I don't have the mind to care about other majors.

After hearing Lin Ran's explanation, Xiao Nan and Gao Yan reluctantly accepted it.

Gao Yan remembered something else:

"By the way, isn't that Su Lingle the singer 'Lele' who was very popular a couple of years ago? I watched your live stream last night and 'Lele's' face looked very familiar. Today I realized that when I compared her with Su Lingle, their chins were exactly the same."

"Yes, she is 'Lele'." Lin Ran nodded.

Tao Zhiyao's roommate, Wang Hui, already knew about this. He didn't think it could be kept secret for long, or that it could be kept secret until now, which proved that Su Lingle really rarely attended live events in the past few years. Most people had heard her songs, but didn't know what she looked like.

Xiao Nan was still confused and asked who Lele was. Gao Yan mentioned a few songs that were very popular online, and Xiao Nan immediately understood. Then he looked at Lin Ran with envy and jealousy.

"Ran-ge, are we still good brothers? Last time it was Jiang Qiaoqiao, and this time it's Su Lingle. You've been hiding it so well, I didn't even notice."

"Cough cough."

Lin Ran coughed twice, unable to offer an explanation. He couldn't very well say that he only became close to them after they had taken advantage of him, could he?

Become someone everyone rides, and then make friends with many girls.

So he decided to shift the blame elsewhere.

"Senior Gao Yan, I think you've been too indulgent with Virgo lately. He seems to want to meet a lot of pretty girls too."

"I didn't do it! I didn't!" Xiao Nan exclaimed in shock. "This is slander, utter slander!"

"Get your ass over here!"

Gao Yan didn't care about any of that. As a real tigress and a sports student, disciplining Xiao Nan, who had thin arms and legs, was as easy as picking up a chick.

"Better you die than me, you virgin! Enjoy your happy troubles, so many single guys don't get this kind of treatment."

Lin Ran looked away and met Su Lingle's intense gaze.

Her alluring eyes blinked rapidly, and Su Lingle's expression suddenly changed. She frowned and said angrily:

"Get out of here..."

She reached out to grab Lin Ran's collar, but Lin Ran wouldn't let her have her way. He grabbed her wrist first and pressed her against the wall.

Su Lingle struggled for a few moments, but realizing she couldn't outmuscle Lin Ran, she immediately adopted a fawning expression and begged for mercy:

"Good brother, I know I was wrong. I just wanted to play a role-playing game with you, so please forgive me~"

Lin Ran released her grip: "To be honest, if it were Jiang Qiaoqiao, she would rather die than show weakness. You have indeed lost in this respect."

"..."

Su Lingle was struck dumb, frozen in place.

Lin Ran understood her too well; one sentence struck her right where it hurt, hitting her vital point, even more intensely than physical humiliation.

Su Lingle gritted her teeth, grabbed Lin Ran's arm, and pleaded:

"Good brother, please pin me against the wall one more time, and I promise I won't beg for mercy... Being outshone by that wicked woman feels like a hundred bullet ants are biting me all over, it hurts so much!"

When Xiao Nan, who had just finished being scolded, saw this scene, he immediately froze on the spot. He glanced at Gao Yan, who was as fierce as a tigress beside him, and felt sad. The difference between people was too great. He was being scolded, but Ran Ge was being licked by a female singer and asked to be pinned against the wall. Are they from the same world?

Fuck your God, this is so unfair!

Lin Ran and Su Lingle walked into the restaurant together. Gao Yan thought for a moment, then took out her phone and sent a message to Tao Zhiyao.

She felt that as a good friend, she should tell Tao Zhiyao.

The message came back quickly.

Tao Zhiyao: Thank you, senior. Lin Ran told me that she was going to take Su Lingle out to eat. I don't mind.

"Gao Yan: Are you really not bothered, or are you just pretending?"

Tao Zhiyao: It's true. I believe Lin Ran is a good person (grinning face).

Gao Yan felt very uncomfortable seeing this.

Silly girl, men aren't as simple as you think. There's no one in this world as innocent as you. People are fickle. If you don't hold onto happiness tightly, it will slip away somewhere else.

However, all she could do was tell Tao Zhiyao about the situation, since it was a matter between the two of them, and outsiders couldn't interfere.

…………

Tao Zhiyao sighed, sat on the wooden chair, tilted her cute face up, and stared blankly at the night sky shrouded in dark clouds.

My roommates bought a chicken frame sprayed with vinegar from a food stall.

She doesn't like sour flavors or vinegar, so she didn't go to buy any and sat here waiting for them to come back.

"Lin Ran, I miss you so much..." she murmured softly.

Many people say she is a very well-behaved girl, but she knows herself that she is not; she is not well-behaved and has a bad heart.

Gao Yan just asked her if she minded, and she answered that she didn't mind. But actually, she did mind. After all, only a complete fool wouldn't mind if someone you care about ate with another person of the opposite sex.

However, Tao Zhiyao didn't have the courage to "not mind".

She was afraid of causing trouble for Lin Ran and incurring his displeasure.

Tao Zhiyao's feelings were too humble, so humble that even a ripple of emotion from Lin Ran could send her fragile feathers flying to the bottom of the lake.

When I was little, I watched a TV series with my mother. The male lead had an affair, but his wife knew it all but pretended not to know and treated him well.

The mother angrily scolded her for being melodramatic, but Tao Zhiyao gave a different answer: "The wife must love her husband very much and believe that her silent efforts can make him change his mind and fall in love with her again."

It's a really silly idea. If this were in modern times, many viewers would definitely complain about the melodramatic plot.

But Tao Zhiyao really thought that way. She didn't think cheating was right, nor did she think her wife's silence was right. She just felt her wife's deep affection for the male protagonist.

My mother said that I should not be a "wife" in the future. Only a person who dares to speak his mind and face the world with his head held high is a complete person.

Ultimately, Tao Zhiyao found herself in the position of the wife in the TV series... no, perhaps not quite the same, but in some similarities, she made the same choices as the wife.

"I believe in him, and I'm willing to wait, but... this feeling is awful."

Tao Zhiyao stood with her heels on the wooden chair, hugged her knees, and curled up into a small ball. Her eyes were lifeless as she watched an ant carrying a leaf twice its size on the asphalt road, struggling to climb over it. Even when it encountered small potholes and bricks, it did not give up and shakily stepped over them.

Patience is really hard.

Across the street.

Wang Hui, with a chicken carcass in her mouth, randomly tapped on her phone screen and dialed a number.

"Feed?"

"Where are you?"

"The restaurant, someone in the class is treating us to a meal."

"I'll turn the camera around, take a look for yourself, I've never seen Yao Yao like this before!"

Best friends stand up for justice online!

After Wang Hui finished speaking angrily, she hung up the phone and shared her location. She had done what she could; the rest was up to the two of them to decide.

If it doesn't work out, that would be great; Yao Yao, this wonderful girl, is mine!
