They all want to control me!

Chapter 33 Does She Like Me?

"Gao Yan, a sophomore in the Department of Physical Education, president of the photography club, and Xiao Nan's girlfriend, who was my former roommate," Lin Ran said. "I just added her on WeChat yesterday, and there are no more than three chat messages. You can check it yourself. Is that detailed enough?"

"Ahem, I didn't mean anything by it, I was just venting a little."

Jiang Qiaoqiao blushed slightly. She had thought Lin Ran had hooked up with another girl and was unfaithful to Tao Zhiyao, but it turned out to be her friend's wife.

"Besides, even if I make a few female friends, it's none of your business, is it?"

"That won't do." Jiang Qiaoqiao's tone became serious. "I have to control your body. If you mess around and catch a venereal disease, how disgusting would that be?"

"You have no faith in my character? I'm done with you, Qiaozi."

Lin Ran racked his brains but never came up with this reason.

I almost thought she liked me, and that she was jealous because there were too many girls around her—but thinking about it, it makes sense. This rich girl is incredibly wealthy; she wouldn't choose a small-town student like me.

Tao Zhiyao is more realistic.

At noon, Lin Ran chewed on the spicy strips in her mouth and quickly swallowed them.

Recently, Jiang Qiaoqiao has become addicted to spicy snacks. Every time she tries to control her body, she has to buy a bag of spicy snacks, which causes Lin Ran to drink a lot of water afterwards, otherwise she would have already gotten a sore throat from the spiciness.

Jiang Qiaoqiao was heartless in lifting her buttocks; she only cared about her own pleasure, and Lin Ran was left to clean up the mess afterward.

After finishing lunch, Lin Ran ran to the boys' dormitory 201, pushed the door open, and saw Xiao Nan wearing briefs, lying on the bed with his butt sticking out, making a video call with his new girlfriend Gao Yan.

In the three-person dormitory, Lin Ran lived off-campus, Wang Jiahao went home, leaving only Xiao Nan, dressed in very light clothing, to guard the dormitory.

Of course, most of the time, boys in the dorms only wore a pair of shorts.

"Hey virgin, I need to talk to your girlfriend about something."

"Holy crap, Ran-ge! You can't take your brother's wife!" Xiao Nan immediately slammed his phone shut, his face filled with terror.

"Get lost, I'm not a jerk." Lin Ran laughed and cursed. "Your boyfriend is the president of the photography club, and I want to borrow some of their people to shoot a video."

"Oh, I see. You scared me to death." Xiao Nan sat up and patted his chest.

"Am I that scary?" Lin Ran grinned. Although he was not bad-looking, he didn't think he was so bad as to steal someone else's wife.

Xiao Nan shook his head seriously: "Ran-ge, you can feel it yourself. Recently, girls often look at you in class. I sit in the last row, and I can see their lecherous eyes very clearly."

Lin Ran glanced at the top right corner of her vision and saw the [Passive - Benevolence] skill, which must have increased her favorability towards strangers.

Having too much charm seems to be a problem.

Xiao Nan climbed off the bed, handed his phone to Lin Ran so the two could talk, and tilted his head, straining his ears to listen carefully, lest Lin Ran really steal his girlfriend away.

"You're Lin Ran... The name sounds familiar, I feel like I've heard it somewhere before. And looking at you now, you really are very handsome." A voice came from the phone.

Xiao Nan's face instantly turned green. She bared her teeth and brandished her claws, but hesitated to speak—a boyfriend can't stand it when his girlfriend says other guys are handsome in front of him.

"However..." Gao Yan added, "I like Xiao Nan more now, he's his girlfriend."

Xiao Nan instantly regained his composure, a happy smile spreading across his face, his eyebrows twitching as if dancing with glee.

"Because I like the submissive type. You look too strong, tall and big, not like a submissive type. Xiao Nan is fair-skinned and slender, and he has a submissive vibe when he walks down the street. I especially like that type."

Xiao Nan's smile lasted less than five seconds before it froze, his face turning a terrifying purplish-red.

No matter how you look at it, this doesn't sound like a compliment.

Virgo, such a bold woman is rare to you; you've found your soulmate.

Lin Ran looked at her former roommate with pity, worried that Xiao Nan might go insane under the tutelage of this female S.

Gao Yan teased her boyfriend a bit, then discussed serious matters with Lin Ran, namely, shooting a music video.

The photography club wanted to participate in a photography competition but lacked materials. Since they had a friend with a partner, they quickly reached an agreement.

We agreed to shoot at 5:30 pm, at sunset and at night. The lighting at this time is good for creating an atmosphere, that kind of youthful pain vibe, which has a wide audience.

"Hey virgin, here's your phone back. Take care of yourself while chatting with your girlfriend. You're already weak, don't make it worse. Next time I'll bring you a sheep penis."

"Ran-ge, I... want to cry..."

"Have your partner comfort you."

Lin Ran walked out of the dormitory, closed the door, and didn't leave immediately, but lingered for a while to listen to the sounds inside.

Xiao Nan said he was jealous and asked Gao Yan to praise him more. Gao Yan praised him, and Xiao Nan let out a "whoosh" and lay down on the bed, continuing to chat with his butt sticking out.

Lin Ran shook his head helplessly.

Where is your backbone?

Love makes people blind; it can even turn a playboy into a pure and innocent virgin... well, he really does seem to be a virgin.

He wanted to make the most of his lunch break, as he was shooting music videos in the afternoon and evening.

Lin Ran called Tao Zhiyao down from the dormitory and dragged her to the library to study.

Clinical medicine has a lot of technical terms that are difficult to understand. Tao Zhiyao had previously told Lin Ran that she couldn't maintain her regular 2-hour study time every day after participating in club activities.

"Don't take a nap at noon, go to the library to study."

"what?"

Still half-asleep, Tao Zhiyao's eyes widened instantly, her mouth slightly agape, before she nodded resolutely.

"Okay! I'll listen to Lin Ran!"

The two went to the library.

Lin Ran initially wanted to go to the top floor, but remembering the girl with glasses from yesterday, she went to the floor below the top floor, the social science library.

The plan was good, but after sitting in the library for half an hour, Tao Zhiyao fell asleep on the table, drooling and wetting the pages of her anatomy book.

Lin Ran sighed, wiped her mouth with a tissue, turned on the computer, and while browsing her own elective courses, also opened Tao Zhiyao's elective courses, browsing both web pages at the same time.

College students are so energetic; they can fall asleep as soon as their heads hit the pillow.

Also, these elective video courses are too long. Do you think it's easy for me to earn credits?

…………

On the other side, suburban villas.

"Qiaoqiao, the camera and recording equipment has been placed at the little boy's doorstep," Aunt Zhao said.

Jiang Qiaoqiao held her coffee, gently blew on it, and took a sip: "You didn't go in, did you?"

"No. Although I had the key, Qiaoqiao wouldn't let me in, so I didn't go in."

"It's good that he didn't go in, otherwise he would be angry..." Jiang Qiaoqiao muttered softly.

She put down the exquisite porcelain cup, tidied her hair, and a soft, hooked strand of hair still stubbornly stuck out by her ear.

"How's the investigation on Su Lingle going?"

"I can't find anything," Aunt Zhao shook her head. "His father holds a very high position in the province, so I don't dare to investigate further."

"Tsk."

Jiang Qiaoqiao was in a bad mood. Yesterday, she learned that Su Lingle and Lin Ran had a past connection, and her curiosity compelled her to ask Aunt Zhao to investigate.

In the end, no information could be found; the girl's family was very powerful.

But if we can't find it, so be it. Anyway, he was just a passerby in Lin Ran's life, like two intersecting straight lines that will only drift further and further apart, with no possibility of ever meeting again.

Jiang Qiaoqiao disdained to pay attention to people who posed no threat, and continued to ask Aunt Zhao:

Is Grandma definitely coming to visit me tonight?

"Hmm," Aunt Zhao hesitated for a moment, then said, "Qiaoqiao, the old lady seems to have heard some rumors..."

"What's the rumor?"

"The thing about you and that little boy who are in frequent contact."

"..."

Jiang Qiaoqiao's hand holding the porcelain cup trembled slightly, causing the cup to tilt and spill coffee onto the tea table.

She panicked a little.
