Chapter 554 - 542: Jiang Yinuo’s Man!
Although Du Ruanqing said she’d handle it, Ou Mingsi still found a baseball bat left behind by a senior. She followed Du Ruanqing on her tiptoes, nervous and flustered, looking as if she was ready to swing the bat at the first sign of trouble the moment the door opened.
CLICK!
Glancing back at Ou Mingsi wielding the baseball bat, Du Ruanqing gently unfastened the door’s safety latch. Just as she was about to turn the doorknob, she seemed to think of something. She paused and called out, "Whose delivery is it?"
Outside the dorm room, sensing the girls’ extreme caution, as if bracing for a great enemy, Qin Fan couldn’t help but chuckle and shake his head.
He lowered his voice and said, "It’s for Jiang Yino!"
Yinuo’s?
At the sound of his voice, both girls turned in unison to look at Jiang Yino.
"Yinuo, you have a delivery?" Ou Mingsi asked.
However, Jiang Yino just laughed in response.
This just confirms my intuition! The so-called delivery guy outside is, nine times out of ten, that scoundrel Qin Fan!
"Yeah, I do!" Although she was certain, Jiang Yino didn’t reveal the truth.
Since Qin Fan wants to play a prank, I’ll let him tease the other two for a bit. It’ll be perfect revenge for all the times they’ve teased me.
"What the heck! Why didn’t you say so earlier! But wait—that’s not right. Since when do delivery guys have the privilege of entering the dormitory building? Don’t they always wait outside?" Ou Mingsi had just started to relax and lower the baseball bat, but now she raised it again, her eyes wide with suspicion.
"Why don’t we just open the door and ask him? I’m also curious how he managed to get up here," Jiang Yino replied with a laugh.
"Yinuo, aren’t you scared? A guy just suddenly appeared in the girls’ dorm!" Ou Mingsi was baffled by Jiang Yino’s bright, cheerful laughter. Sister Yino doesn’t seem like the bold, tomboyish type at all!
"What’s there to be scared of? Didn’t Ruanqin say it? It’s broad daylight. Even if he had wicked intentions, he wouldn’t have the guts to act on them! Tee-hee!" Jiang Yino giggled, covering her mouth. Her laughter was mostly directed at Qin Fan for starting this prank.
"That’s true!" Ou Mingsi nodded and whispered.
By now, Du Ruanqing’s hand was on the doorknob. She twisted it gently, cracking the door open just a sliver. Then, Du Ruanqing took a deep breath and suddenly yanked it wide open!
WHOOSH.
The door flew open, revealing Qin Fan’s grinning face.
"What the—! It’s you!"
After a moment of stunned silence, Du Ruanqing cried out in disbelief. She had never, for a single moment, considered that it might be Qin Fan! Although he had been up here once before, security was much tighter now; the two situations weren’t comparable.
"Why can’t it be me?" Qin Fan said with a sly smirk. With that, he unceremoniously stepped inside, leaving Du Ruanqing and Ou Mingsi standing there, frozen and utterly stunned.
"I knew it was you! You’re pretty bold, aren’t you? Daring to barge into the girls’ dormitory. How did the dorm supervisor at the main entrance even let you in?" Jiang Yino greeted Qin Fan with a warm smile as he walked in. Her eyes were filled with tender affection. Qin Fan’s sudden surprise had truly stirred her restless heart.
"Don’t you know whose man I am? You think a dorm supervisor could stop me?" Qin Fan said, his lips curling into a smug, arrogant grin. It was only in front of Jiang Yino that he could reveal this side of himself.
"Pfft! Whose man? Who gave you the right to say that? And would it kill you to stop being so arrogant for once? The dorm supervisor couldn’t stop you? I dare you to go downstairs and say that to her face!" Jiang Yino retorted, her face flushing red from Qin Fan’s blunt verbal assault. At that moment, it was as if Qin Fan was the only person in her world. For a girl deeply caught in the surging tides of love, her sweetheart would always come before her best friends!
"Jiang Yino’s man!" Qin Fan declared shamelessly, gazing deeply into her lovely, expressive eyes.
COUGH! COUGH!
COUGH! COUGH!
COUGH! COUGH! COUGH!
Right on cue, as Qin Fan finished speaking, a series of dry coughs broke out! Du Ruanqing and Ou Mingsi were looking at them awkwardly. Even an old pro like Du Ruanqing seemed unable to handle the atmosphere.
"Ahem! Could you two please consider your surroundings? Also, we’re living, breathing people here. Could you do us the courtesy of not treating us like we’re invisible? It’s a matter of basic respect!" Du Ruanqing said with a helpless, wry smile.
"Exactly! The sparks are already flying between you two. Have you no consideration for us single dogs? ’Whose man, Jiang Yino’s man’... oh my god! This PDA is inflicting ten thousand points of psychological damage! Compensation! I demand compensation!" Ou Mingsi pouted with a peculiar expression on her face.
"What’s wrong? You two want an introduction? I have three roommates left in my dorm. Just pick one and take him away!" Qin Fan chuckled, breaking the romantic tension and turning to them.
"Pfft! No, thanks! One is all brawn and no brains, another tries too hard to act deep and mature, and the last one always has this pervy, repressed vibe. The only perfect one was already snatched away by Sister Yino!" Du Ruanqing immediately fired back.
UGH.
All brawn and no brains? One who tries too hard to act deep and mature? And another with a pervy, repressed vibe? Is that her impression of the guys from Room 708? Damn! I really want to cry foul on their behalf! But at the same time, a playful smile spread across his face.
In my past life, Du Ruanqing dated the "all brawn" guy. Their relationship eventually ended due to some issues, but they parted on good terms. With my return in this life, I’ve inadvertently changed their fates. What kind of sparks will fly between Brother Ze from the Northeast and Du Ruanqing this time?
Thinking of this, Qin Fan couldn’t help but let out a strange chuckle.
"Hey, what are you snickering about? Yino, watch your man! He’s giving me a sleazy, lecherous smile!" Du Ruanqing exclaimed upon seeing his wicked grin.
"You know, people who say things like that usually end up falling for it! What do you think, Ruanqin?" Qin Fan teased, ignoring her playful accusation.
"What are you talking about? Falling for it? You mean I’m going to get involved with one of them? Please, stop joking! They’re not my type!" Du Ruanqing declared with a flash of her usual assertiveness.
To this, Qin Fan just shook his head without another word. Instead, he pulled a small, exquisite wooden box from his pocket.
"Whoa! Are you proposing? Is that a ring?" Du Ruanqing exclaimed, surprised by his sudden move.
