The Genius Sweetheart of the Abstinent Goblin Boss

Chapter 276 Little Flower Sister is so kind!

Jiang Manxi almost rolled her eyes when she saw her sincere expression, and quickly pinched her philtrum.

She strongly suspected that Xiao Leng was an imposter, but she had no proof.

Mo Yilan rushed to the freezer; she wanted to drink something cold to cool down.

It's really driving me crazy.

She poured herself a whole glass of iced cola, and after taking only two sips, she heard the doorbell ring.

She was a little curious, and really couldn't imagine who would come looking for her.

The thought of being kidnapped immediately put him on high alert.

Although in theory all those associated with Yuan Yamei, including Zeng Nian, have been imprisoned, it's hard to say that she didn't have some underground influence after all, given that she held a high position for so many years.

But right now, Xiao Leng and Jiang Manxi are both at home, and she can't let them get into danger because of her.

Thinking it over, she quickly took out her phone and sent a text message to the police before heading to the door to check the situation on the security camera.

But as soon as they turned the corner, they saw Jiang Manxi and Ji Ran already standing at the door, with Jiang Manxi's hand on the doorknob, ready to open it.

"Hey! Danger..." Mo Yilan immediately spoke up to stop it.

The two turned around with puzzled expressions, but before Jiang Manxi could pull back her grip, the door had already been opened.

Seeing this, Mo Yilan didn't have time to think. She rushed over, grabbed the two people, and pulled them behind her, separating them from the direction of the door.

"Hey!" Jiang Manxi lost her balance and fell to the ground with a thud.

At the same time, the door was pulled open by someone outside.

Mo Yilan instinctively wanted to pull Jiang Manxi back, but when she felt the draft rushing in from the doorway, she became extremely alert and adopted a defensive posture, no longer caring about Jiang Manxi.

The next second, when she saw the person's face clearly, she was completely dumbfounded.

Jiang Baishen stood at the door, dressed in a comfortable loungewear set, with a bandage on his right hand and a large, pure white shopping bag in his left.

His originally warm and gentle smile completely cracked when his gaze fell on Ji Ran, who looked indifferent behind Mo Yilan, and his own younger sister, who was sitting on the ground rubbing her bottom.

Mo Yilan's expression wasn't much better.

"You...why are you here?"

"I..." Jiang Baishen wanted to say that he was afraid she had worked overtime again and hadn't eaten on time, so he made some late-night snacks for her and brought them over.

However, seeing the expressions on those two people's faces as they watched the show, my face suddenly felt hot.

Ji Ran casually picked Jiang Manxi up from the ground.

"Ouch~" Jiang Manxi cried out again involuntarily.

Mo Yilan realized what was happening and, not wanting to wait for Jiang Baishen's reply, quickly turned around to pull Jiang Manxi closer. But she withdrew her hand just as she reached out, afraid of offending him.

"Are you alright?! I'm so sorry! I didn't mean to."

Jiang Manxi felt the pain coming from her buttocks. She was initially confused, but seeing how worried Xiao Hua was about her, she was filled with joy.

She shook her head.

"She thought there was danger at the door, that's why she pulled you," Ji Ran suddenly explained from the side.

Jiang Manxi was stunned for a moment, then she remembered that Sister Xiaohua had been kidnapped just two days ago, which was why she was so nervous.

However, knowing there was danger, she rushed forward and shielded herself and Xiao Leng behind her.

Waaaaah, Little Flower Sister is so kind!

Mo Yilan was also taken aback by these words. She didn't expect this brat to explain for her. When did she become so considerate?

"Cough cough..." Jiang Baishen coughed awkwardly.

Mo Yilan then remembered that there was someone standing at the door. "Come in."

As she spoke, she took out some extra slippers for him.

The three of them sat at the dining table, watching Jiang Baishen take out one exquisite insulated box after another from a white shopping bag.

"Well... I didn't expect you guys to be here, so..." Jiang Baishen explained somewhat embarrassedly.

Now that things have been said, who can not understand what it means?

"It's okay, I'm full," Jiang Manxi said.

"It's okay, I'm not very hungry," Mo Yilan said.

Hearing Jiang Manxi's voice, Jiang Baishen was pleased that his younger sister was considerate and sensible. But when he heard Mo Yilan's voice, he immediately stopped what he was doing.

At this moment, only Ji Ran remained silent. She looked at the quiet air and wondered if she should say something too.

She glanced at Jiang Baishen's sling arm; it was both inspiring and heartbreaking that he could cook a whole table of dishes despite his physical condition.

If no one eats it, wouldn't that be terrible, all that effort for nothing?

"Then... I'll eat it?" Ji Ran tentatively suggested, though a hint of reluctance could be heard in her voice.

Jiang Manxi reacted the most, turning her head incredulously to stare at Ji Ran and frantically winking at her.

That brat! She's infuriating!

"You ate so much shrimp tonight, and you still kept eating!" Jiang Manxi couldn't help but exclaim.

Ji Ran scratched his neck. Wasn't the atmosphere already at this point?

"Then I'll go back first."

"Hmm?" The people at the table looked at her uneasily, afraid that she was angry. Jiang Manxi's face tensed up instantly.

"Xiao Leng, that's not what I meant."

Ji Ran gave her a puzzled look. "What do you mean, 'not that'?"

Seeing that her expression was calm and unwavering, the group breathed a sigh of relief.

"No...it's okay, you can eat if you're hungry!" Jiang Manxi immediately clarified her meaning.

Ji Ran shook her head; she wasn't hungry to begin with. "Anyway, it's getting late, I should head back."

"Then I'll take you!" Jiang Manxi volunteered eagerly.

Ji Ran looked disgusted. "You're going to give me a ride? And then I'll give you one?"

Jiang Manxi then remembered that Ji Ran lived in an undeveloped suburban area without even streetlights, which made her feel a little scared.

"Then I..." Jiang Baishen was about to say that he would give it to her, but he was afraid that Yilan would misunderstand again, so he couldn't say a word.

But Mo Yilan wasn't actually jealous about such things. More than jealousy, she was worried about Xiao Leng's safety. "Then let him..."

Before they could finish speaking, Ji Ran shrugged, "Qi Mu will come to pick me up."

As soon as she finished speaking, Jiang Baishen and Mo Yilan instantly understood her meaning and were relieved.

Jiang Manxi looked blank for a moment before realizing that Xiao Leng must have been referring to the incredibly handsome man.

However, the name 'Qi Mu' sounds familiar; I feel like I've heard it somewhere recently.

So the group didn't try to stop her any longer. Jiang Manxi got up, thinking she should at least see Xiao Leng downstairs, but Xiao Leng refused.

Unexpectedly, her brother also stopped her from going to deliver it, so she gave up.

Ji Ran went out alone, and the dark figure was already waiting at the door.

The man, with his hands in his pockets and his back against the wall, couldn't take his eyes off the girl the moment she appeared in his sight.

Ji Ran stepped forward and took his hand.

"Let's go."
