Xu Wanwan nodded seriously. “Yes! Thank you for today!”

She said it sincerely as if she had used up all her enthusiasm.

Seeing that she was always so serious, Li Jingran chuckled and suddenly wanted to tease her. “How are you going to thank me this time?”

“I haven’t thought about it yet…” She thought about it seriously for a while and said, “But if you need me in any way, I can—”

Before she could finish her sentence, Li Jingran suddenly leaned in front of her, his eyes filled with complicated emotions.

Xu Wanwan’s lips were half-open, but she could only swallow the words she had yet to finish.

Her eyes darted around, staring at the man in confusion. She felt a strange feeling in her heart.

Li Jingran’s eyes darkened, and he slowly reached out to touch the red and swollen mark on Xu Wanwan’s forehead. He couldn’t bear it.

“Does it still hurt?” His voice was low and hoarse.

Xu Wanwan’s breathing stopped. The man’s cold fingers brushed over the wound. She didn’t feel any discomfort. In fact, she felt a little comfortable.

She answered obediently, “It doesn’t hurt anymore.”

Li Jingran’s eyes softened a lot. He said in a low voice, “I’ve already taught Li Xuyi a lesson.”

“This is all a misunderstanding. I’ve never blamed him.”

Li Jingran sighed lightly. “Remember to tell me immediately if anything happens at school in the future.”

“Okay.” Xu Wanwan was as obedient as a kitten.

She suddenly thought of something and quickly stood up. “Oh right! I said I’d cook for you. Wait for me here. I’ll go and cook something delicious for you.”

Without waiting for Li Jingran to say anything else, Xu Wanwan ran to the kitchen.

Li Jingran looked at the girl’s back as she jogged away. He felt inexplicably happy, and the corners of his lips curled up.

Xu Wanwan put on her apron and began to work. She had recently learned how to make pastries, and now she wanted to make them for Li Jingran to eat.

She was so busy kneading the dough that she didn’t notice the white flour on her face. After the pastries were out of the oven, she carried them out of the kitchen.

Li Jingran had been waiting for a long time. He couldn’t help but chuckle when he saw the girl for the first time.

She was so busy that there were a few white marks on the side of her face, looking like a cat that was secretly eating in the kitchen.

Xu Wanwan didn’t notice the change in the man’s expression. After putting down the pastry, she picked up a small piece and handed it to the man’s lips. “It’s fresh out of the oven. Try It.”

Li Jingran looked at the exquisite and small pastry, and his appetite was also whetted. He slowly opened his mouth and ate the entire pastry.

Xu Wanwan’s eyes narrowed in satisfaction. “Is it good?”

Li Jingran tasted it slightly. He licked the corner of his lips and praised, “Not bad.”

“I recently learned this online.” When Xu Wanwan heard his praise, she was even happier. “I knew you would like it.”

“By the way, I made some more. I’ll take them to school tomorrow and give some to Li Xuyi.”

Li Jingran’s eyes paused. “He’ll have some too?”

Xu Wanwan didn’t notice that the man was a little unhappy. She said to herself, “I’ve observed Li Xuyi at school. He often doesn’t eat well. If this continues, his stomach will be in trouble.”

“You also observe him often?” Li Jingran frowned slightly.

“Yes, because he’s your brother, so I want to treat him better.” Xu Wanwan did not think there was a problem at all and said honestly.

There was a hint of jealousy in Li Jingran’s tone. “No need. He has enough pocket money every month. He won’t starve to death.”

Xu Wanwan: “But—”

Before she could finish, she was interrupted unhappily by Li Jingran. “Enough, don’t mention him.”

Xu Wanwan thought he was still angry at Li Xuyi, so she pursed her lips and didn’t say anything more.

After dinner, she packed the pastries into a small container and went back to her room to rest.

At night, she would usually study and then catch up on the drama.

After she finished reading and was about to catch up on the drama, her phone suddenly rang.

Xu Wanwan pushed her computer to the side, bent over to take the phone from the bed, and answered an unfamiliar phone call—

“Xu Wanwan, are you free tomorrow? I have something to talk to you about. Let’s meet up, shall we?” On the other end of the phone, Zhao Zixuan asked her in a tentative tone.

When Xu Wanwan heard this voice, she said unhappily, “I’m not free.”

“Then when are you free? We haven’t seen each other for a long time. There was some misunderstanding earlier, so I wanted to explain it to you.”

“Zhao Zixuan, it’s already impossible between us. Please don’t contact me again in the future.”

Xu Wanwan finished her sentence in one breath and directly hung up the phone.

The next day, when Xu Wanwan arrived at school, many people were giving her strange looks along the way.

Just as she was curious, Lin Jianan jogged over and said while panting, “Wanwan, have you heard? The Liu Corporation offended some dark organization and went bankrupt overnight.”

When Xu Wanwan heard the news, she was a little shocked. “That shouldn’t be possible, right?”

She remembered that the Liu Corporation was quite a big enterprise. How could it go bankrupt just like that.

“But that’s the truth. Liu Ru is really in trouble now. She and her father got expelled from the school,” Lin Jianan said with a sigh.

When Xu Wanwan heard these words, she thought of Li Jingran for some reason.

Could he have done these things?

“But this is good too. No one will find trouble with us in school in the future.”

Xu Wanwan was absent-minded. “That’s true.”

The two of them walked toward the teaching building and bumped into Liu Ru and her dad, who had just come out of the academic affairs office.

Liu Ru was carrying a box. Her eyes were dark as she deliberately walked toward Xu Wanwan’s direction.

Lin Jianan subconsciously grabbed Xu Wanwan’s arm. “Why hasn’t Liu Ru left yet? We’d better hide from her.”

Xu Wanwan nodded and turned around to walk to the other side.

Seeing that she was about to leave, Liu Ru jogged over and chased after her. “Xu Wanwan, stop right there!”

“What? Do you want to fight before you leave school?” Lin Jianan grabbed Xu Wanwan’s arm and said unhappily.

Liu Ru’s face was no longer as bright and beautiful as before. Her previous gentleness had disappeared. She said fiercely, “Xu Wanwan, let me tell you, this matter is not over.”

“Even if I leave, Xu Yue will not let you off. Just you wait.”

Xu Wanwan frowned slightly and said coldly, “Be a good person and stop talking nonsense.”

Liu Ru was so angry that she gritted her teeth. “Just you wait!”

After she said that, she lowered her head and ran away.

Lin Jianan made a face at her back and complained, “Who are you trying to scare?”

It was a Friday, so school ended early.

Xu Wanwan had forgotten to tell the driver that the school had changed the time, so she could only take the car back by herself.

Walking out of the school gate, she turned to the convenience store to buy something. Just as she was about to walk back, her wrist was suddenly grabbed.

“Sister, long time no see.”

Xu Yue was wearing a black cap, and her entire face was covered by a mask.

Not waiting for Xu Wanwan to react, she had people directly drag her out.
