Chapter 247: The Harasser (1)

Loving from the living room to the bedroom, from the sofa to the big bed… In the end, Ye Qingran was exhausted and fell into a deep sleep in Chu Yan’s arms.

A sliver of light appeared on the horizon and Ye Qingran began to sleep restlessly. She had been dreaming, and in the dream, all kinds of messy scenes appeared again.

Familiar yet unfamiliar.

Sweet yet painful.

It was very clear, but nothing could be felt.

Ye Qingran suddenly opened her eyes.

The ringtone of her mobile phone rang in her ears. It was not the sound of an alarm clock, but the ringtone of an incoming call.

Chu Yan had the habit of running in the morning. If there were no accidents, he would get up at seven o’clock on time and run for an hour in the morning.

There was nobody around her now, so it should be past seven o’clock.

Ye Qingran looked at her phone that was still ringing on the bedside table and reached out to take it.

The call was from her cheap father.

“Baby girl, are you up yet? Your Big Brother and I are having breakfast at a restaurant not far from your school. Do you want to come over? If you don’t have time, we can send it over to you,” Ye Jun’s voice sounded from the other end of the phone.

“I’m not at school,” Ye Qingran replied directly.

“You’re not at school. Where are you? Did something happen?” Ye Jun’s voice was obviously a little nervous.

“Nothing happened. I’m fine, but I’m not staying at school. Let’s have lunch together today. I’ll tell you the details later.”

Ye Qingran did not say too much to Ye Jun. .

Her mind was in a whirl and she felt dizzy.

She had some strange dreams again. Everything in the dream was very sharp, but she could not remember anything after she woke up.

This was not the first time this happened.

It was like a dream but not a dream. It was as if it had really happened before, but it was very distant.

It felt very strange.

During breakfast, Chu Yan could clearly feel that Ye Qingran was not in good spirits.

Before going out, Chu Yan asked her, “Why don’t you take a leave of absence and rest at home today?”

“No need, I’m fine. I’ll just rest in the car for a while.” Ye Qingran did not drive today, so Chu Yan sent her to school.

She smiled and said, “Oh right, I’m having lunch with my dad. Do you want to come along?”

Chu Yan asked her seriously, “Can I come along?”

Ye Qingran said, “I haven’t told him about us yet.”

Chu Yan said, “Forget it then. I’ll go see your dad again when you want to tell him.”

“I feel that you’re so virtuous,” Ye Qingran teased.

“The word virtuous cannot be used on men.” Chu Yan flicked her forehead with his finger. “Do you not want to go to school anymore?”

Ye Qingran hugged his arm and gave him a mischievous smile. She dragged him out. “Hurry up, I’m going to be late.”

Under the morning sun, two long shadows snuggled up against each other, warm and sweet.

In the afternoon, Ye Qingran received a text message from Ye Jun the moment she ended class, detailing the restaurant name and private room number.

He had not seen Ye Qingran for a long time. When he saw Ye Qingran, Ye Jun greeted her with a smile. He wanted to give her an intimate hug, but Ye Qingran avoided him.

Ye Jun was not angry. His daughter was already an adult and had a proud personality. Naturally, she did not want him to be clingy.

He just hated that he raised her the wrong gender when she was young and missed the days when his daughter was the most clingy to her father.

Ye Jun pushed the menu in front of Ye Qingran. “Daddy has ordered all your favorite dishes. See if you want to add anything else.”

Ye Qingran said, “Enough. There are already so many dishes. If you order any more, you won’t be able to finish them, it’ll be a waste.”

Ye Jun said happily, “My daughter is so good. She knows how to save money for her father.”

Ye Qingran:”…”

In the past, didn’t he always scold this son.

It was really change in gender, change in attitude.

Ye Jun said again, “I’ve discussed with your mother. From now on, during your time in the capital, you can come home every day to eat. The dishes outside are ultimately not as healthy and clean as the ones at home.”

“If both of you come to the capital, what about the company in Jiang City?” Ye Qingran asked.

“I’ll go back to Jiang City occasionally. The two cities are very close anyway,” Ye Jun said.

“In the Internet era, a lot of work can be handled online. It’s still feasible,” Ye Qingran saw that there were only Ye Jun and her in the private room, so she asked about Ye Hanzhi.

“Where’s Big Brother?”

“He has something to deal with at the company and can’t leave for the time being.” Ye Jun did not talk much about Ye Hanzhi and the company. Instead, he asked how Ye Qingran was doing at school.

She did not go back to school last night. Instead, she had stayed outside. Naturally, he also asked about that.

Ye Qingran had already thought about it and was ready to tell the Ye family about her boyfriend.

She was not underage and being in a relationship was not a bad thing. There was no need to hide it.

Moreover, she felt that she could not hide it even if she wanted to.

She said directly, “I was at my boyfriend’s place last night.”

After she said that, she felt much more relaxed.

Ye Jun’s expression changed instantly. His gaze became sharp and his expression became serious. “You’re still so young. What boyfriend are you having?”

He did not care who she had a boyfriend with. To him, no man was worthy of his daughter. He could not be with his daughter.

Ye Qingran smiled and asked, “I’ve been an adult for 18 years. Moreover, I’ve had a girlfriend since I was 15 years old. At that time, I didn’t see you calling me young. You just told me to take it easy and not play with people’s lives.”

Ye Jun’s face was a little embarrassed.

At that time, he said that because he thought she was a boy. How could a boy be the same as a daughter?

“It’s different for men and women. I’m afraid that you’ll be deceived.” If he had known it would turn out like this, he wouldn’t have been so strict with her in the first place.

“Then you can rest assured. I’ll still know whether or not he’s lied to me.” Ye Qingran still believed in Chu Yan.

The more Ye Qingran said this, the more worried Ye Jun became. “I’m afraid that you would pretend not to know even though you do, and be willing to be deceived.”

This made Ye Qingran momentarily speechless.

She smiled helplessly. “Then if you say it like this, girls should not fall in love because they might be deceived.”

Ye Jun said, “It’s not that you can’t. I just want you to wait a few more years. By then, you’ll have more social experience, and you’ll be able to distinguish between good and bad.”

Ye Qingran knew that what Ye Jun said was right. If it was the original Ye Qingran, or any other 18-year-old girl, these words would have worked perfectly.

However, she was not really 18 years old.

She replied, “Thank you, but Chu Yan, I believe in him.”

“Chu Yan?”

Ye Jun’s face darkened. “It’s that brother of Ruoruo’s. You were staying at his house before. At that time, you even told me that there was nothing between the two of you. You even said that he was a good person. It’s obvious that he had bad intentions.”

Ye Qingran said, “In the past, there really wasn’t anything. He just took care of me like a brother. When I was homeless, he took me in and taught me homework, so that I could enter Du University. Father, you should be grateful to him.”
