Chapter 136: Lin Qingzhi Gets Angry

While Xu Anlin was crying out in despair, Wang Haoran felt quite pleased inside.

First Liu Xinyao, and now Chen Ranni, with each encounter, he had seized 200 luck points in total.

He checked the system.

[Xu Anlin’s remaining protagonist halo: 100. Current host luck points: 1800. Ability points: 90.]

With Xu Anlin’s protagonist halo down to 100, no wonder Wang Haoran deliberately argued with Xu Anlin; the effect was quite good.

With Xu Anlin’s halo this low, it should be straightforward for Wang Haoran to finish him off, not as troublesome as killing Su Xiaoyi.

While Wang Haoran was planning an assassination for the evening, Chen Ranni, who was holding his hand, started to get nervous.

She was feeling very flustered.

What should I do? We’re about to enter the store. If Sister Qingzhi sees this, how do I explain?

N-no, it’s okay, I don’t need to explain… Maybe Sister Qingzhi will be happy… After all, when she was helping me with my makeover, she said a few times, “Don’t be nervous, you can treat me like your sister.”

On the surface, she was encouraging me not to be nervous, but in reality, she was hinting for me to be brave, to become her good little sister, right?

I can’t let Sister Qingzhi down!

Finding an excuse, Chen Ranni gripped Wang Haoran’s hand tighter.

This surprised Wang Haoran, who was about to let go.

Initially, Wang Haoran was leading Chen Ranni, but now, it felt like she was pulling him into the store.

Lin Qingzhi, who was sitting at the counter writing something, looked up when she heard them come in.

“…”

You’re being way too blatant!

I’m still alive, you know!

Lin Qingzhi was speechless.

She had already noticed Chen Ranni’s thoughts.

It was hard not to; Chen Ranni was too obvious.

When they were changing her appearance, Chen Ranni often asked for Wang Haoran’s opinion through Lin Qingzhi, then said with a guilty look, “I want to hear a guy’s opinion, but I don’t have any male friends, so I can only ask you, Sister Qingzhi!”

Chen Ranni thought she was hiding it well, but Lin Qingzhi saw through it immediately—

This girl wants to use what I taught her to attract my man’s attention!

Lin Qingzhi tested this.

When deciding on a new hairstyle for Chen Ranni, she casually said, “Ran Ran, you also think the third hairstyle looks good? See! Haoran’s taste isn’t great; he insisted the second hairstyle suited you and would make you stand out!”

As soon as she said that, Chen Ranni immediately began reconsidering the hairstyle, acting like it was a serious decision.

Then, after pretending to study the pictures on her phone for a while, she firmly said, “Actually, Sister Qingzhi, I think I prefer this hairstyle! Let’s go with this one!”

“…”

Seeing Chen Ranni’s blushing but trying-to-stay-calm look, Lin Qingzhi was speechless.

She felt Chen Ranni looked like a primary school student who hadn’t done their homework being questioned by the teacher, with a guilty expression and shifty eyes, but still stubbornly saying, “I did my homework, I just forgot to bring it!”

Knowing Chen Ranni’s thoughts, Lin Qingzhi couldn’t get angry.

Because Chen Ranni didn’t seem to want to steal, but to join.

Hmm… just like I did before!

Moreover, Chen Ranni was too respectful to her.

At this point, Lin Qingzhi felt an inexplicable feeling—Chen Ranni’s behavior was much like a concubine in ancient times.

Thinking it over, Lin Qingzhi decided that Chen Ranni probably hadn’t interacted much with men, and suddenly meeting someone as outstanding as Wang Haoran, she couldn’t help herself.

So, she decided to change Chen Ranni’s appearance and her introverted, insecure personality, making her more confident and encouraging her to make more friends.

Obviously, it worked; Chen Ranni became more confident and brave—

But Lin Qingzhi never expected her to be brave enough to hold her boyfriend’s hand and bring him right in front of her!

What is she thinking?

With Lin Qingzhi staring at her expressionlessly, Chen Ranni started to panic.

She hurriedly let go of Wang Haoran’s hand and forced an explanation.

“Sister Qingzhi, I-I brought him here for you to talk to, you two take your time!”

After saying that, Chen Ranni ran to a corner nearby, sat on a small stool with her back to them, and showed them the back of her head.

Watching her hide like an ostrich, Lin Qingzhi looked back at Wang Haoran.

“…”

Seeing Wang Haoran acting as if nothing had happened and sitting beside her, Lin Qingzhi puffed her cheeks in anger.

“Now you need someone to lead you by the hand to come to me? Seems like you’ve almost forgotten about me!”

“No way, actually, I was the one who held Ran Ran’s hand first. Let me explain!”

Wang Haoran pulled her into his arms.

“Earlier, outside, a guy was leering at Ran Ran and wouldn’t leave her alone. I couldn’t stand it, so I stepped in.”

“As soon as I intervened, the guy felt ashamed and was hit hard! If you go out now, you might still see him kneeling in agony!”

Being held, Lin Qingzhi snorted coldly.

“Hmph, I’ll believe your nonsense about this, but how do you explain the holiday? Seven whole days, not once did you come to see me!”

Talking about this made Lin Qingzhi angry.

The holiday was the busiest time for the flower shop, and Wang Haoran went on a trip, taking Liu Xinyao with him!

Liu Xinyao, who had promised to work part-time at the shop!

She talked so sweetly about the job but ended up stealing my man before the job even started!

Look at Chen Ranni, knowing I was busy, she came to help every day, mornings and afternoons! Sometimes, she stayed until it got dark and had no choice but to rest here!

She never sneaked around, just asked me about my man casually!

That’s how a good sister should be!

Thinking about Wang Haoran’s confession about Liu Xinyao during the holiday, Lin Qingzhi felt bitter.

“Hmph, you’re heartless!”

“Qingzhi, are you jealous of Yao Yao?”

“No!”

Lin Qingzhi huffed in anger.

Though she wasn’t jealous of Liu Xinyao, being a latecomer herself.

She was just mad that Wang Haoran hadn’t come to see her once during the holiday.

Seeing her angry look, Wang Haoran leaned in and whispered softly in her ear.

“Not jealous? That’s good! I brought a surprise for you!”

“……What is it?”

Feeling his breath by her ear, Lin Qingzhi’s tone softened.
