The Unlikely Encounter

The first thought that crossed Chen Ran’s mind was whether the girl in front of him had a few screws loose.

“Hmph, aren’t you, old man, interested in a young, beautiful girl’s body? Or are you a sheep-tailed man?”

She pointed at him with a mocking gesture, her eyes narrowing into a smile that was both beautiful and infuriating.

Chen Ran, however, remained unfazed.

“Please return the lipstick you just stole and leave the store,” he said softly.

“I won’t!”

Lin Qingqing responded defiantly, as if daring him to do something about it.

“I won’t, I won’t, I won’t! What are you going to do about it, old man? Hmm?”

“I’m not just not giving it back, I’m also not leaving. Are you in a rush to go home? Do you have a little girlfriend waiting for you? Will she be calling soon?”

“No worries, I’ll explain it for you. I’ll say you’re with someone and can’t leave. Yeah, all night long~”

The girl seemed determined to stay put for the night.

“…”

Chen Ran concluded that the person in front of him was an annoying woman who made his fists clench.

So, instead of hitting her, which wouldn’t solve anything, he quietly turned and quickly made his way to the main switch of the convenience store, turning off all the lights.

“Click,” went the sound.

The convenience store was instantly filled with the blackness of night, with only a faint glow from the street lamps outside, preventing it from being completely dark.

Chen Ran saw the confusion on Lin Qingqing’s face, clearly not understanding his actions.

But then something even more puzzling happened.

Chen Ran left the store without a backward glance, locking the glass door behind him.

The sound of the chains clinking in the night was particularly loud.

Lin Qingqing frowned as she finally understood Chen Ran’s intentions.

“You’re crazy?! You’re going to lock me in here all night?!”

She rushed to the door, her face pressed against the glass, glaring at Chen Ran.

Even in her anger, she remained adorable.

But Chen Ran simply replied calmly,

“You said you wouldn’t leave, and I need to go home. So…”

“This is illegal detention!!! I’ll call the police and have you arrested!!”

Lin Qingqing’s panic was evident.

But Chen Ran just shrugged nonchalantly and replied with a single word.

“Oh.”

“Oh, you…”

“You’re not allowed to leave, got it?! Otherwise, I’ll never forgive you!!”

Lin Qingqing was shocked to discover that Chen Ran was so “sly.”

But she didn’t realize that Chen Ran had only pretended to lock the door.

Suddenly, the glass door of the convenience store swung open again, and Chen Ran dragged her out forcefully.

He then quickly locked the door, leaving Lin Qingqing stunned.

This guy had deliberately lured her to the door and then dragged her out!

“Okay, let’s both go home and find our own mothers.”

Chen Ran said this as he swiftly opened her bag, retrieved the stolen lipstick, and placed it in his pocket.

“That’s it.”

He walked to the street, scanned a shared bike, and rode off, completely ignoring Lin Qingqing, who was still standing there, stunned.

Lin Qingqing finally realized what had just happened.

“You’re just going to leave me here?!”

She shouted at Chen Ran, who was already on the bike.

“Aren’t you human?! Take me home!”

“No.”

Chen Ran shook his head coldly and was about to ride away.

“You dare?! I’ll sit here and cry until someone comes to talk to me, and then I’ll go home with them!”

“…”

Chen Ran stopped and looked back at her.

Lin Qingqing smirked, thinking she had won.

She believed that men, even if they had no relationship, would feel responsible if she showed the slightest bit of interest.

“Hah, these guys who think they’re being chivalrous are so fun to play with,” she thought.

But Chen Ran’s reply was,

“What does that have to do with me?”

“?”

The sound of the bike fading into the distance, Chen Ran’s figure grew smaller and smaller.

She couldn’t believe it! It didn’t work?!

Lin Qingqing was so angry she could barely breathe. She stroked her ample bosom, took deep breaths for a long time, and finally accepted the situation.

“Interesting, this is definitely interesting. Not bad for someone I’ve been watching for so long.”

Lin Qingqing laughed to herself.

She had always been a bully, enjoying the sight of others flustered and desperate, begging for mercy.

She loved pushing people into the abyss, watching them struggle and twist, just like tearing apart a perfect doll.

It brought her immense satisfaction.

And Chen Ran was an “excellent target” she had discovered by chance.

She had been watching him for days, but only tonight did she take action.

She never expected this outcome, and it infuriated her!

Lin Qingqing had planned to tease him with her charm, capture evidence of him trying to peek at her underwear, since who could resist a beautiful girl?

With that leverage, she could control him.

But Chen Ran wasn’t interested?!

How could he not be attracted to her beauty?!

Lin Qingqing fumed, but soon calmed herself, seeing this as just the beginning.

“I won’t let this go!”

Lin Qingqing muttered, then called for a ride. A luxury car pulled up in front of her.

“Miss, are you heading home?”

“Yeah.”

Lin Qingqing’s earlier threats were just to tease Chen Ran. She would never wait on the street all night and go home with a stranger.

She got into the car and took out her phone, quickly messaging her only friend.

[Hey, I found a super interesting target tonight, a guy who likes to act all cool and handsome. Watch how I’ll make him fall!]

[I’ll give you a live update on how he slowly falls and becomes my toy, hehe~]
