Chapter 51 - The Single Life She Was Looking For
Chapter 51: The Single Life She Was Looking For
8: 30 AM in Li County.
After Qin Ran hurriedly finished her breakfast, she did her best to clean the place. It took an entire day for her to clean the three bedrooms, the living room and dining room. After that, she placed many orders from her phone. There were small appliances, furniture, and daily necessities.
Qin Ran was already looking forward to the beautiful and solitary life that followed.
She had three bedrooms and two living rooms, so it was completely enough for her to live in alone. Furthermore, the house’s style was not bad. The north and south were transparent, and the living room and two larger bedrooms were all facing the sun. In the future, she could transform the second bedroom into a study room. It was not bad to read books there usually. She could also put away the coffee table in the living room, leaving only the sofa. When she was in a good mood, she could spread a yoga mat and stretch her body.
Every scene flashed past Qin Ran’s mind, and she nodded. Unknowingly, she fell asleep.
A week passed by unhurriedly.
As she looked at the little house that was getting more and more warm, Qin Ran set a small goal for herself. That was to cook for herself in the future.
Let’s start the first meal at noon today. After working for so many days, why not reward myself with a hotpot?
She bought the vegetables, washed them, and cut them. She then prepared her favorite tripe, mutton, duck blood, and so on. Everything was ready except for the fire.
Halfway through the meal, someone knocked on the door.
Who was it?
Qin Ran looked through the peephole and saw that it was actually Qin Fei. Her second brother who was a B-list celebrity who had been in the entertainment circle all year round.
How did he know that she was staying here?
The urgent knocking sound came again.
“What are you doing?” Qin Ran opened the door impatiently.
“It’s really you, Qin Ran!” Qin Fei exclaimed. “I saw the back of a girl downstairs and thought that she looked like you, so I followed her. I didn’t expect it to really be you.”
How unlucky. The people from the Qin family were really everywhere. We could even meet in this small county city.
Qin Ran didn’t say much. She glanced at Qin Fei and wanted to close the door.
“Why are you in such a rush to close the door? Is there a man hidden inside?” Qin Fei looked down on his younger sister the most. He always thought of his sister in a deplorable way. “Qin Ran, you’re already the Fu family’s daughter-in-law. Can’t you behave more appropriately? Don’t disgrace our Qin family.”
Nothing good comes out of a dog’s mouth.
“I’ve already severed ties with your Qin family. Also, watch your mouth. Otherwise…” Qin Ran clenched her right fist as coldness filled her eyes.
Qin Fei was a paper tiger. Moreover, he had suffered from Qin Ran’s fists before. When Qin Ran first entered the Qin family, as the person who doted on Qin Xue the most, he himself hated country bumpkins the most. Therefore, he would always bully Qin Ran openly and covertly.
As the saying goes, a rabbit would bite when it’s anxious. Moreover, Qin Ran was a tiger cub to begin with. Therefore, she counterattacked after a provocation. This counterattack was something that Qin Fei would never forget for his entire life. The young lady waved her fist and kicked horizontally, almost crippling him.
“Don’t be rash. There are surveillance cameras everywhere here.” Qin Fei said as he retreated towards the lift in a panic.
Qin Ran took the opportunity to slam the door shut and muttered in her heart,?“You’re really overestimating yourself.”
In the end, just as she sat in front of the hotpot and ate a few mouthfuls of meat, the knocking sound came again.
“Are you leaving or not?” Qin Ran opened the door again and roared angrily. However, when she saw the man at the door clearly, she was stunned.
This wasn’t Qin Fei.
But Mo Chi.
The man in front of her was wearing a well-ironed suit and had an imposing appearance. However, his eyes were dark, and it was obvious that he had stayed up late for a few days. On the other hand, Qin Ran was wearing a nightdress and slippers. Her hair was casually tied into a bun, and there was an unfinished tripe in her mouth.
Before Qin Ran could speak, Mo Chi walked past her and entered the living room. He sat on the sofa with his legs crossed, and it didn’t look like his first time here.
“You… why are you here?” After a short while, Qin Ran asked slowly.
“To take you home.” Mo Chi frowned and looked around. When he saw the hotpot, he narrowed his eyes and said, “This hotpot is too oily and unhealthy. Your body can’t take it if you only eat this.” 𝒇𝙧𝚎𝐞𝙬𝒆𝑏𝑛𝑜v𝚎𝒍.c𝑜m
“Why is hotpot unhealthy? It’s a combination of meat and vegetables and is fresh and delicious.” As an experienced foodie, Qin Ran was a hardcore fan of all kinds of hotpot.
“The base dip is too oily, and there are many additives.” Mo Chi actually explained in all seriousness.
