But Feng Minsheng did not let go of Ning Ran. He continued holding her.
Ning Ran was furious! She stamped on his feet.
Feng Minsheng didn't expect Ning Ran to do that. He was in so much pain that he had to let go of Ning Ran.
A guy next to Ning Ran cheered for her feisty attitude.
“Ran, why did you...”
“Feng Minsheng, please do not call me Ran. We are not in that kind of relationship.” Ning Ran threw those words at
him mercilessly.
It was the first time they were meeting in many years, and yet he behaved in such a brusque manner. She was
hugely disappointed in him.
It did not matter if he was genuine in his affections for her. She thought that he really went overboard.
The basis of affection should be respect for each other. No matter how much you love someone, you should still
respect each other's boundaries.
It was extremely satisfying for the surrounding crowd to witness the scene that just unfolded. Everyone cheered for
Ning Ran's feistiness.
Looking at the situation, Cheng Xiangyun tried to ease the tense atmosphere.
“Everyone should get seated. You guys haven't seen each other for so long. You should have a proper catch up.”
After Ning Ran sat down, all the guys tried to sit close to her.
To prevent further clashes, Ning Ran chose to sit between two girls.
While they were catching up, it was revealed that Feng Minsheng was the one who had organized the class
gathering. All the expenses were also borne by him.
The ladies were all curious about the current life of this former school hunk. They asked him all kinds of questions,
such as about his work, his relationship status, etc.
Feng Minsheng told them that he was working for a foreign company and he was still single.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe sounded just like a typical eligible bachelor. The ladies got excited and all started adding him on WeChat.
Ning Ran was the only one who was not interested to talk to him. Neither did she ask to add his contact.
The main purpose of having a class gathering was not to catch up, but rather, a battle of each other's
achievements.
Ning Ran was bored after a while. She wanted to leave before the gathering ended.
Feng Minsheng stood up and said, “I'll walk you out.”
“I don't think there is a need for that.” Feeling the watchful eyes of the other ladies, Ning Ran rejected his offer
immediately.
“I have something to tell you.” Feng Minsheng said in a gentle voice.
A mixture of cheers and jeers came from the crowd.
Ning Ran felt very awkward. She was worried that if this push and pull with Feng Minsheng carried on, he might end
up saying more rude things.
Ning Ran agreed, thinking that he would at most only walk her to the door.
“Cheng, let's go.”
Ning Ran shouted out to Cheng Xiangyun, seeing that she was still glued to her seat.
But Cheng Xiangyun did not want to leave yet. “You can go first; I want to stay a while more.”
Since she did not want to leave, Ning Ran left alone.
When they reached the door, Ning Ran waved at Feng Minsheng and said, “You should go back now. I'm leaving.”
“I don't think I want to go back anymore. I'll drive you home. Wait for me, I'll go get the car.” Feng Minsheng said.
“You really don't...”
“The reason I didn't drink was because I wanted to drive you back. Please give me a chance.”
Ning Ran rejected him again. “There's really no need for that. I can take a cab.”
“Please let me drive you back home. We haven't seen each other for so long. Can't you just let me drive you back
this once? Just wait here. I'll be back right away.” Feng Minsheng started walking towards his car while he said that.
Ning Ran did not wait for him. She walked straight to the main road and tried to flag a cab.
Unfortunately, there were no available cabs. The few that drove by all already had passengers.
Just then, Feng Minsheng drove out. He saw Ning Ran and thought that she was waiting for him by the roadside.
He got out of the car and opened the door for Ning Ran, gesturing for her to get in.
Since it had already come to this, Ning Ran felt that she could no longer reject the offer.
Inside the car, Feng Minsheng bent over to help Ning Ran with the seat belt.
He was leaning too near and Ning Ran could smell his cologne. She frowned.
Why is this man using such a pungent cologne? What a weird taste he had!
“I'll do it myself. You don't have to.” Ning Ran tried her best to not show her disgust.
“I am willing to do this for you.”
Because Feng Minsheng was too close to her, Ning Ran tried to lean back. The position that they were in appeared
rather intimate.
The car windows were rolled down. A man who was standing under the streetlamp was taking pictures of them.
He had a professional camera. The angles he chose to take the photos from also seemed professional.
The photos were that of Feng Minsheng crouched over Ning Ran.
When they were finally done with the seat belt, Ning Ran heaved a sigh of relief.
If Ning Ran knew what was going to happen next, she would never have attended that gathering.
“Ran, have you been well all these years?” Feng Minsheng asked her in a gentle voice.
“I am great. I'm married with two kids.”
Ning Ran thought that once she threw out this dynamite, Feng Minsheng would stop having funny ideas towards her.
“Really? Your kids must be so adorable.”
Ning Ran did not expect Feng Minsheng to react this way. He didn't seem to be shocked at all.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe didn't even bother to ask why she was married at such a young age, and even had two kids.
Did he know about it already?
Ning Ran thought for a while, and decided that it was not possible.
Apart from Cheng Xiangyun, she had not kept in touch with anyone from school. By right, no one would know about
her life. How did Feng Minsheng know?
“My kids are very adorable. I love them and my husband very much. I have a very happy family.” Ning Ran said.
Feng Minsheng seemed to be hiding something behind his smile. “So, who is your husband?”
“I don't want to talk about my family. Please respect my privacy.”
Feng Minsheng laughed again. “I know you have kids. But I also know you are not married.”
So he really knows! How did he know?
“Who told you that?” Ning Ran was shocked.
“No secret can be kept forever. Anyway, I just know. Ran, I don't mind that you have kids. I am willing to raise them
together with you. All these years, I have been to many places and met many people, but I am still unable to forget
you.”
Oh no. He has started to confess. Indeed, whatever you don't want to happen, happens. Ning Ran thought.
“It is not possible between us.” Ning Ran rejected him straight away, without giving any consideration.
“Why? I am doing well financially. I can help you raise the kids.”
“They are my children. I can raise them myself. I don't need any help.” Ning Ran was firm.
“Ran, don't be like that. I know you liked me last time. I could tell from your eyes.”
Faced with Ning Ran's rejection, Feng Minsheng did not give up.
“I can't remember if I had liked you last time. But I am very sure that I don't like you now. So don't say anything that
crosses the line, otherwise, we can't even remain friends.” Ning Ran warned him.
“C'mon, Ran. I know you are having reservations because of the kids. But I will convince you that I can really help
you raise them.”
He's such a pain in the neck. Why can't he get it?
