"To sleep in separate rooms? "Then …"
"Hmm?" Lu Jin put down the newspaper in his hands and rested his chin on his hands. He looked at her with interest and said, "You don't agree to sleep in a separate room?"
He couldn't guarantee that she would sleep next to him in the middle of the night, but he couldn't do anything about it.
But if she wanted to, he was still willing to let her down.
Xu Xiran immediately shook his head and said in a low voice, "I'll listen to you."
Such an obedient attitude should have made Lu Jin happy. However, there was no trace of happiness on his face. Instead, he looked rather disappointed.
What was he planning?
Xu Xiran anxiously sat in his car, thinking about this problem all the way. She didn't even notice when she arrived at school until Lu Jin learned to remind her to get off.
As one of the most famous universities in the country, Yinglan University had many excellent students, but it was rare for such a handsome man to learn how to drive a limited edition car like Lu Jin.
Therefore, when Lu Jin learned to get off the car and open the door for Xu Xiran, he had indeed attracted quite a few people's attention. Some of the girls even whispered amongst themselves, sizing up Xu Xiran's eyes with an indescribable emotion.
Xu Xiran was a reserved person and was not used to being the center of attention. Therefore, when Lu Jin warned her to return home on time, he casually nodded his head and hurriedly ran to the school building.
The moment she appeared in the classroom, it attracted quite a few girls' attention. They even crowded around her to chat.
This caused Xu Xiran, who had always had a bad relationship with girls, to be overwhelmed by this favor. Naturally, he would say whatever he wanted and not hide anything.
After chatting about random things, a girl finally asked the main point — —
"Xu Xiran, is the person who sent you here your boyfriend?"
"Boyfriend?" Xu Xiran was stunned for a moment. He immediately recalled his relationship with Lu Jin and shook his head. "He's not my boyfriend."
"That's more like it …" A girl called Chen Xi said sourly: "I heard that your family has gone bankrupt recently? Where could he get a handsome and rich boyfriend like this? That car looks like it's worth at least a few million. You didn't do something shameful for money, did you? "
Xu Xiran felt a sharp pain in his heart, and silently lowered his head.
Seeing her expression, Chen Xi naturally thought she had hit the mark. She immediately became excited and loudly said: "That can't be, Xu Xiran. I never thought you would be this kind of person." Even if it's bankruptcy, your family still hasn't reached the stage where they want you to do some despicable act of colluding with them, right? "
"I didn't." Xu Xiran's excuse was even lower than a mosquito, but these people were not willing to listen to her explanation. The speed at which the gossip spread was even faster than the wind, and due to jealousy, or the fact that they were still in the mood to enjoy the show, the girls all began to discuss this matter in succession.
Fortunately, the professor's appearance saved her life, and the classroom quickly quieted down.
Xu Xiran sat between them. He had the nagging feeling that everyone was looking down on him, as if he was some shameful, dirty thing.
Her eyes reddened, and she lowered her head in silence, forcing herself to listen to the lecture.
Only when the bell for the end of class rang did she seem to be rescued. She left the classroom without even looking back, hiding in the basketball court.
In the WeChat group chat on her phone, someone mentioned her. It was Chen Chenxi. She openly asked Xu Xiran in the group —
"Hey, Xu Xiran, which shoe are you wearing today? It looks pretty nice."
