Chapter 87 How did you all come in together?
Lin Ran looked around for help, only to find that most people were indifferent. A few stopped and watched them with interest, but no one seemed inclined to help her.
Lin Ran felt a chill in her heart and, too lazy to maintain any semblance of composure, raised her head and spoke slowly and deliberately.
"I said, I'm not interested. Can you understand human speech?"
The man was so angry that his face turned red, and the flesh on his face trembled with each breath.
He was a nouveau riche who had recently received compensation for his demolished house. Relying on his money, he used his connections to get an admission ticket. He originally planned to find a powerful figure to cling to at the normal banquet, but he didn't expect to be scolded by a woman before he even got in.
He couldn't stand this, and raised his hand to strike, unaware that someone had been watching him from behind for a long time.
Xiao Yunsi arrived at the same time as Lin Ran, so he naturally saw what had just happened. When he saw the man about to make a move, he lowered his head to hide the mockery in his eyes, quickly walked over and grabbed the man's hand.
"And who are you, you pretty boy, trying to meddle in my affairs!"
"I will not change my name or surname, Xiao Yunsi. If you have any issues, talk to the Xiao Group."
Xiao Yunsi had a smile on his face, but the words he said sent a chill down the man's spine.
Even though he didn't know much about it, he was aware of the significance of the Xiao Group.
Having offended the Xiao Group, he has no chance of survival.
This woman actually has connections with the Xiao family!
In just a few seconds, the man thought of many things, his expression changed repeatedly, and finally he smiled ingratiatingly.
"Oh, it's President Xiao. My apologies. I didn't know she was your woman. It was all a misunderstanding."
"Misunderstanding?"
Xiao Yunsi smiled slightly, then looked down at Lin Ran, his tone full of concern.
"How are you feeling? Are you alright?"
Lin Ran looked at the man blocking her way with a complicated expression. A sour and throbbing feeling welled up inside her. When she heard his question, she simply nodded.
"I am fine."
Xiao Yunsi curled his lips and whispered in Lin Ran's ear.
"Don't worry, just watch how I deal with him."
Lin Ran froze for a second, and just as she was about to stop him, it was too late.
"I heard you've always been extravagant and never care about money, is that right?"
The man nodded, puzzled, wondering why Xiao Yunsi was asking that question.
The next second, Xiao Yunsi grabbed Lin Ran's hand and showed her the red mark on her wrist.
"See that? It's so badly scratched. You should go to the hospital for a proper checkup."
The man blinked, staring blankly at the almost vanished mark for a long time before finally nodding.
"Yes, yes, you're right. I'll give this young lady ten thousand yuan right now so she can get a medical check-up."
"Ten thousand?"
Xiao Yunsi's smile became even more gentle, but his eyes were full of threat.
The man wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and quickly changed his tune.
"One hundred thousand, is one hundred thousand okay?"
Xiao Yunsi seemed somewhat dissatisfied and was about to speak again when Lin Ran tugged at his sleeve.
"Alright, alright, there are quite a few people around."
Lin Ran felt a warmth in her heart, especially when she saw that Xiao Yunsi was willing to do such a thing for her, she was extremely moved.
Xiao Yunsi glanced at the surrounding gazes, caught sight of a few familiar figures, and then lowered his head in satisfaction.
He wanted everyone to know about this, and preferably for it to reach his good brother's ears as soon as possible.
Xiao Yunsi was really looking forward to it. What would someone like Xiao Jingchen do after finding out about this?
Under Xiao Yunsi's supervision, Lin Ran successfully received 100,000 yuan.
"Let's go, I'll take you inside."
Lin Ran had originally planned to leave, but after hearing Xiao Yunsi's words, she hesitated. After a long while, she finally nodded.
After all, she had prepared for the party for so long; it would be such a waste for her not to go in.
With Xiao Yunsi by her side, Lin Ran was no longer stopped by those security guards. In fact, those guards lowered their heads as they passed by, afraid that Lin Ran might come looking for trouble if she was unhappy.
The hall was already quite crowded with people, and Xiao Jingchen was naturally in the most prominent position, surrounded by many people who wanted to come and discuss cooperation.
Ye Chuchu looked around with some boredom, and finally her gaze settled on the entrance.
She desperately suppressed her excitement to keep from crying out. After Xiao Jingchen finished speaking, she reached out and tugged at him, her tone innocent.
“Brother Xiao, look, Sister is here too.”
Xiao Jingchen paused in his actions and looked up.
Lin Ran, dressed in a long silver dress, stood there like a radiant being, attracting everyone's attention.
A hint of amazement flashed in his eyes, but it vanished the moment he saw the person standing next to her.
"Oh, why did you come with Xiao Yunsi, sister? Anyone who didn't know better would think they were the ones..."
Seeing Xiao Jingchen's face gradually darken, Ye Chuchu hurriedly covered her mouth and looked over innocently.
"Brother Xiao, please don't misunderstand. My sister may have just happened to come with him. Don't overthink it."
Xiao Jingchen could no longer suppress his anger. He thought about how he had waited for this woman at the entrance for so long, only to have her come in with Xiao Yunsi. Jealousy and anger consumed his reason. He pushed aside the people surrounding him and strode over.
Why are you walking with him?
Lin Ran looked up and met Xiao Jingchen's gaze. Her heart trembled, and a sense of fear spread from the bottom of her heart.
Seeing that she didn't speak, Xiao Jingchen snorted coldly, grabbed Lin Ran's wrist and pulled her over.
The action was ruthless, and Lin Ran felt as if her bones were about to shatter. She subconsciously struggled to shake him off, but Xiao Jingchen misunderstood her action as resistance and increased his strength.
A hint of a smile flashed in Xiao Yunsi's eyes, but his face showed a worried expression.
"Be gentle, can't you see you're hurting her?"
Xiao Jingchen lowered his head coldly, but upon seeing Lin Ran's pained expression, his hands unconsciously relaxed considerably.
"My wife is none of your concern."
As soon as he said that, many people around looked over.
Some of them weren't from this city, and although they knew Xiao Jingchen was married, they didn't know what his wife looked like.
Now that something so exciting has happened, they certainly won't miss it.
Being stared at by so many people, Lin Ran felt like an animal in a zoo, subjected to all sorts of scrutiny. She felt increasingly aggrieved and desperately tried to pull her hand away.
Little did she know that her action had thoroughly enraged Xiao Jingchen, who disregarded the occasion and dragged Lin Ran away.
