If Wang Ran didn't possess absolute confidence, she certainly wouldn't have carried herself with such poise.
You really can't judge a person just by their surface appearance.
Especially in the circles of the rich; it was nowhere near as simple as Lin Yu had imagined!
Facing his young girlfriend, Xia Zhenfeng seemed like a completely different person.
A broad smile immediately piled onto his face as he said cheerfully,
"How could I? Who doesn't know I'm a decent man?"
"Who would dare arrange those kinds of things for me!"
"Xiao Ran, you know me. I'm famously loyal!"
Saying this.
Xia Zhenfeng directly grasped Wang Ran's hand.
He was no different from a twenty-something young man trying to win his girlfriend's favor.
Lin Yu was almost dumbfounded: "???"
It wasn't that older people had to be incredibly proper, solemn, and serious.
But there was a young person present, after all!
And this young person was his daughter's boyfriend!
Was it really okay to just show his true colors so openly?
Now, Lin Yu even started to doubt...
Between Wang Ran and Weiwei, who was the actual villain?
Why did it look like this older man and his young partner were genuinely in love?
Wang Ran noticed Lin Yu's reaction and playfully pushed Xia Zhenfeng with a smile.
She said pointedly,
"If you had come back any later, I'm afraid I would have been treated as an enemy and wiped out."
Lin Yu: "!!!"
Oh no. Crap.
She's coming for him!
Xia Zhenfeng followed Wang Ran's gaze and immediately spotted Lin Yu's unnatural expression.
Then.
Pointing at Lin Yu, he said,
"You mean this kid?"
"Did he give you trouble before I got back?"
Looking at Xia Zhenfeng, it seemed like he would pounce at any moment and hit Lin Yu with a vicious combo.
Lin Yu's heart pounded with anxiety!
How could he not be anxious?
Because Lin Yu was the one leading the charge in giving Wang Ran trouble just a moment ago.
However arrogant he was when causing trouble, that was exactly how anxious he felt right now.
If he had known their relationship was so harmonious, why would he have blindly taken Weiwei's side?
It was entirely due to faulty intelligence that led to this current outcome.
If it were Lin Yu himself.
Having a stranger barge into his home and blatantly scold him.
The moment the head of the household returned, he would definitely run to them for backup!
Wang Ran wasn't an idiot. Wasn't he doomed?
To his utter surprise.
Wang Ran suddenly changed the subject, chuckling lightly as she said,
"This is Lin Yu's first time at our house, how could he possibly give me trouble?"
"I'm talking about your precious daughter!"
"Every time she sees me, it's like she's looking at an enemy."
"As if I'm some snake demon seducing you to be with me."
Only then did Xia Zhenfeng withdraw his gaze from Lin Yu.
He went back to coaxing his young girlfriend:
"Hehe, this is my fault for not explaining things clearly to Weiwei."
"Actually, I've talked to her many times. You know her temper, she's too much like me, incredibly stubborn!"
"I've told her so many times, but she just won't listen."
"Shanshan is the one who understands me. I only had to tell her twice and she got it."
Wang Ran replied in an exasperated tone:
"Shanshan understands you? She's just sensible. Stop flattering yourself."
"Alright, I won't interrupt your chat. Have a good talk."
"I'm going to check on your precious daughter to see if she got scared by you."
Saying this.
Wang Ran walked around Xia Zhenfeng, deliberately passing right by Lin Yu.
The two exchanged a glance, making Lin Yu's heart skip a beat.
Hiss...
This woman was really something else!
She actually didn't mention how he offended her?
Why would she cover for him?
It left Lin Yu completely baffled.
Regardless.
At the very least, it lessened Xia Zhenfeng's hostility towards him.
During the ensuing conversation, Lin Yu could feel a bit more at ease.
"Uncle Xia, the relationship between you and Aunt Wang is truly enviable, haha."
Lin Yu complimented with a smile, not daring to say another bad word.
Xia Zhenfeng didn't beat around the bush with Lin Yu and went straight to the point:
"I listened to the recording. Thanks to you, kid, I've gotten to know that little bastard Lei Siren all over again!"
"It's not that young people can't have dirty thoughts; I was the same when I was young."
"But harboring such rotten thoughts, blabbing them to everyone, and even taking fucking pride in it..."
"That little bastard should take a good look in the mirror. Does he even have the right to act like that!"

he colors of other people’s emotions. Light red meant anxiety. Gray meant exhaustion. Orange meant excitement. Yellow... meant repression. At the same time, he could gain unlimited control over one of those colors. Pale cyan: relaxation. Using this ability, he started offering “two-yuan hugs,” spending an afternoon exchanging emotional-color experiences with others. Then came his final female customer of the day— a girl whose emotional color was pure black... —— A week later, Xu Chuan had become skilled at using pale cyan—Relaxation—treating it like a bottle of menthol balm whenever he needed it. That was when he discovered he had unlocked another unlimited emotional color: Purple, the color of fear. So these emotional colors refresh every week? Fine, I take it back—I’ll never call you useless again... —— Much later, after Xu Chuan had accumulated countless emotional abilities, one night, he suddenly found himself inside someone else’s dream. There, he could use the emotional colors he possessed to paint. And in her dream, he painted her a shower of pink shooting stars, spreading across the depths of the night sky...
