Forced Pampering: Haughty Husband, Please Restrain Yourself

Chapter 1540: Chapter 1555: Does An Ran Have a Boyfriend?

”I say, Zheng Kai, does An Ran have to report everything to you? You’re overstepping your boundaries.”

Xiao Xiao didn’t want to deal with someone with a short-circuited mind, so she hugged her books and bypassed Zheng Kai, heading towards the classroom.

Overstepping? I really just care about An Ran, Zheng Kai shouted in his heart.

Alright, he did want to meddle, mainly to find out whether she really was with that young guy these days. How could a sister and brother be together all the time? If so, there’s definitely something going on.

Thinking about this, Zheng Kai stopped Xiao Xiao again, laughing awkwardly, ”Xiao Xiao, there’s something I’ve been wanting to ask you, there’s no time like the present, so I’ll ask you today.”

Xiao Xiao shivered from his laugh and took a step back, putting some safe distance between them, looking at him as if he were a fool, ”Ask away!”

”Uhm... does An Ran have a boyfriend?” After asking, Zheng Kai quickly added, ”You know, I’ve liked An Ran for a long time, but I’ve never dared to confess to her. That day, I saw a young guy come to see her, and I’m worried... and it’s been so many days since I last saw her in night class, isn’t she with her boyfriend?”

”Hehe... hehe...” Xiao Xiao didn’t know how to laugh anymore. She really hadn’t noticed that Zheng Kai also harbored such feelings for An Ran. Whether she’s with her boyfriend, of course, only this guy seems to have misunderstood something.

When did Instructor Mu come to the school? And young guy? Young?

The young guy he mentioned, if she guessed correctly, should be An Sicheng, right?

”Are you talking about the young guy who came to the school to find An Ran that day?” Xiao Xiao asked.

”Yes, that’s him. I saw him with his arm around An Ran’s shoulders, looking very close.” Speaking of An Sicheng, a flame instantaneously flared in Zheng Kai’s eyes.

”No,” Xiao Xiao gave him a definite answer, then turned back towards the classroom.

No? Zheng Kai’s eyes lit up; does that mean he still has hope?

”Hey, Xiao Xiao, I haven’t finished speaking, don’t walk away,” Zheng Kai chased after her again, ”Xiao Xiao, with your understanding of An Ran, would she agree if I confessed to her?”

Xiao Xiao halted her steps, squinting her eyes slightly, suddenly feeling playful enough to tease him, ”You can give it a try. If your charm is great, she will naturally agree to you.”

It’s just that your charm might not be as great in An Ran’s eyes as her family’s Instructor Mu.

The December days are very short, and it was completely dark by six o’clock.

When Mu Xingfeng returned to Longteng Xinyuan, he saw from a distance that a light was already on in his home. A light that henceforth became indispensable in his life, a light guiding his way forward.

Upon entering the house, there were already two dishes set on the dining table. The faint aroma of food lingered in the air, and the shadow of a person at the kitchen door, along with the sounds of cooking, obscured everything else.

Placing his car keys on the shoe cabinet and changing his shoes, Mu Xingfeng didn’t take a step further in. He simply leaned against the foyer, watching the busy silhouette reflected by the kitchen light.

All day long, he had been investigating the situation of that mysterious person. As Jin Weiliang had said, he had reviewed all the surveillance videos from the charity night, yet he hadn’t found any suspicious individuals.

By relying solely on surveillance, he eliminated all the registered staff, invited guests, and those wearing journalist badges and staff status from that day. Despite the vast workload, even so, he still hadn’t found that person.
