Chapter 1478: Chapter 1492: Like a Terracotta Warrior

"Bars are not good places, and hanging around those people, she’ll suffer sooner or later," Zheng Kai climbed into the car. Before starting it, he looked at An Ran again, "An Ran, you must never come to this bar again. I don’t think those people have good intentions."

He was genuinely worried that An Ran might be tempted to form some band and come looking for them.

"Don’t worry, I’m not interested in their band," if Xiao Xue hadn’t acted first and reported afterward, she would never have gone on stage to perform.

Now, seeing the behavior of Dongfang Ming and the others, she definitely wouldn’t get involved with them.

It’s just Xiao Xue...

"Hey, Zheng Kai, aren’t you hot dressed so tightly?"

An Ran suddenly noticed Zheng Kai, dressed impeccably. In the bar, she had already noticed that today Zheng Kai’s shirt was buttoned meticulously, even the collar button was fastened tightly.

At first, she thought Zheng Kai was worried that the women in the bar might fancy him as a young stud, but now they were outside the bar, why was he dressed like a terracotta warrior?

Hearing this, Zheng Kai’s back stiffened. He turned his neck awkwardly to glance at the person in the back seat. Trying to smile, he remembered the words "cool and aloof," and tightened his expression, "Not hot."

After speaking, he turned around and started the car.

An Ran felt baffled. Did she offend Zheng Kai? It was the first time she saw Zheng Kai angry, probably because of Xiao Xue’s boyfriend and those people.

An Ran thought this way.

Xiao Xue returned to the dorm the next day at noon.

She greeted An Ran and the others upon entering and then collapsed onto her bed.

An Ran, Xiao Xiao, and Feng Hui Ning exchanged glances, feeling that as fellow dormmates, they really should give her a heads-up.

However, before they could speak, Xiao Xue directly reached out her hand, "Hold on, I know what you want to say. Rest assured, I’m in the medical field, so I know the dangers of that stuff. But you have no idea how stressful their line of work usually is, so don’t worry, I won’t touch that stuff, but I can’t convince them either."

"As long as you’re aware, we can’t interfere with others, but since you’re our friend, we hope you’re taking care of yourself," An Ran said.

"Got it, thank you all. Let me sleep a bit, and we’ll go out for some snail noodles together in the evening." Xiao Xue suggested.

Seeing Xiao Xue indeed had clarity, An Ran and the others didn’t say anything further.

As the weather was gradually cooling, Xiao Xiao suggested going shopping for clothes. Just as they left the dorm, An Ran’s phone rang.

Thinking it might be Mu Xingfeng again, An Ran smiled sweetly and pulled out her phone, but then she saw a familiar name, and her smile froze the instant she saw it.

Answering the call, An Ran remained silent, listening to the other’s faint breath, waiting for him to speak.

A moment later, the other finally spoke, a voice hoarse and weathered, "Ran, do you have time this weekend? I’d like to see you."

Afraid An Ran might refuse, he quickly added, "It’ll just take a tiny bit of your time, just a quick chat."

An Ran’s nails pressed against the metal loop on her bag strap, she eventually said, "Okay."

The other person clearly breathed a sigh of relief, "I’ll wait for you at the school gate, don’t rush. I haven’t been to your school much, so I’ll take the opportunity to look around."

"Mm," An Ran replied and hung up.

Xiao Xiao sensed something from her tone, "That family called you?"
