Chapter 207: Poor Thing

She pouted and looked unhappy. Mo Chi thought that his attitude was too fierce, so he hugged her waist again and said in a much gentler tone, “Don’t be angry. I’ll take you out to play later, okay?”

Qin Ran nodded and was about to say something when she suddenly saw a familiar figure. At the same time, the other party quickly saw her.

Zhang Lan was holding her best friend’s hand and looking for a suitable place to take photos and post them on her social media when she suddenly saw Qin Ran. Her eyes widened and she immediately walked over. She glared at Qin Ran angrily. “Qin Ran, what did you do to Xiao Xue? Why did she suddenly disappear? Did you do something?!”

It seemed like Zhang Lan still didn’t know that Qin Xue’s identity had been exposed. Qin Ran smiled sarcastically. “What has it got to do with me? Perhaps Qin Xue feels that her mother is a mistress and is too ashamed to see anyone.”

Qin Ran had been targeted by Zhang Lan many times. Although she never took Zhang Lan seriously, she also felt that Zhang Lan was indeed stupid and pitiful. Every time Qin Xue said a few words, Zhang Lan would rush to stand up for Qin Xue. If anything happened, Qin Xue would shrink back, and the pitiful Zhang Lan would still be in front.

Last time, Zhang Lan was taught a lesson by her, but she still didn’t seem to have learned her lesson. After the storm passed, for some unknown reason, Zhang Lan is back again. Now that she saw her, she actually didn’t know how to hide. She really didn’t know if Zhang Lan was brave or brainless.

“A mistress?” Zhang Lan widened her eyes. “What nonsense are you talking about? Auntie Qin and Xiao Xue are like mother and daughter. Where did this mistress come from? You must be jealous that everyone likes Xiao Xue, that’s why you made up such nonsense to lie, right? I advise you to give up early, you vicious woman!”

Qin Ran sneered. She originally didn’t want to bother with Zhang Lan, but seeing that she was kept in the dark, she looked at Zhang Lan sympathetically. “You should have just returned to the country a few days ago, right? I advise you to go online and look at the news. Qin Xue has always been lying to you. Her biological mother is Zhao Fang, and she’s the illegitimate daughter of Zhao Fang and Qin Chong. Now, everyone in Xuanchuan City knows about this. As her best friend, she actually didn’t tell you?”

Zhang Lan originally wanted Qin Ran to shut up. She didn’t believe Qin Ran’s nonsense. Qin Xue was so innocent and kind. How could she be the daughter of a mistress? However, when she saw Mo Chi, who was about to flare up, standing beside Qin Ran, she held back her words.

Seeing that Zhang Lan didn’t believe her, Qin Ran couldn’t be bothered to say anything else. She stood up and said, “I just feel that you’re very pitiful. I heard that your mother was once hospitalized for two months because of your father’s lover and almost lost her life. You should know how detestable the person who destroyed someone else’s family is, right? But you’ve actually been good sisters with the daughter of a mistress for so many years. Sigh, how pitiful.”

Qin Ran glanced at Zhang Lan as if she was looking at a pitiful worm. Then, she didn’t say anything else and pulled Mo Chi away.

After Qin Ran left, Zhang Lan was still in disbelief. She and her mother hated mistresses the most in their lives because the lover her father kept back then almost angered her mother to death. Even now, that lover was still hidden by her father in a place they didn’t know about. He would transfer a large sum of money over every month. Her mother hated her to the core, but there was nothing she could do.

How could her best friend, Qin Xue, be the daughter of a mistress? However, Zhang Lan felt that Qin Ran would not lie. Although she hated Qin Ran, she had to admit that Qin Ran never seemed to lie.

Qin Ran and Mo Chi left the clubhouse. They were about to go home when Mo Chi said that there was a famous amusement park nearby and asked Qin Ran if she wanted to take a look.

“Amusement park? That’s too childish. I’m not a child.” Although Qin Ran said that, she stopped in her tracks for a few seconds.

How could Mo Chi not see the wavering in her heart? He pulled her in another direction.

After walking for less than ten minutes, they arrived at the entrance of the amusement park. The two of them bought tickets and followed a group of children into the amusement park.

The variety of rides dazzled the two of them. Qin Ran had never been to such a place that belonged to children. She looked at the strange rides in confusion. “What are these for?”

“I don’t know much about it either. Let’s try it first. It’s still early. We can play all of it.” After Mo Chi finished speaking, he brought her to the carousel.

Qin Ran sat on the carousel and looked around curiously. She said in disdain, “How childish. Look, there are only children here. How can there be adults like us?”

Mo Chi took out his phone and said to her, “Smile.” Then, he took a photo and objected to her, “Who said that adults can’t play? Aren’t every adult once a child?”
