Chapter 60: A Small World

The old man quickly changed to a serious expression. “Young lady, I’m sorry. I was really wrong today. I shouldn’t have done such a thing. I caused you trouble and delayed your work. I’m really sorry, I hope you don’t fuss about it with me.”

“Then promise me that you won’t do such scamming again in the future,” Lan Xin was more straightforward as she said with her big eyes shining.

“Yes, yes, yes. I’ll definitely turn over a new leaf when I go back. It was all those people who hired me. I originally…” the old man said repeatedly.

In the end, Ye Lin interrupted again. “There’s no need to say anything else. Leave quickly.”

The old man scrambled away.

“Sigh, I’m afraid Grandpa won’t change seriously even if he says so.” Lan Xin sighed.

“You know too? Then why did you ask him to promise you?” Ye Lin suddenly smiled.

“Isn’t that what makes me feel better? Grandpa is dozens of years old, after all. I can’t really get him to compensate me for anything,” Lan Xin explained.

“But thank you so much for today. If not for your sudden appearance, I really wouldn’t know what to do.” Lan Xin’s eyes shone as she looked at Ye Lin. At this moment, Ye Lin seemed to be covered in a halo in her eyes.

He was like the peerless hero who came looking for her on a rainbow cloud.

“You don’t have to thank me. I was just passing by.” Ye Lin waved his hand indifferently. “My car didn’t capture the process of them scamming anyone. I just wanted to trick them. I broke through their bottom line and then picked out their faults. It was easier for them to admit it. Otherwise, they would have continued to mess around.”

“Wow, you’re so smart!” Lan Xin’s eyes lit up even more. She looked at Ye Lin and was already beginning to sink into it. “What if they weren’t tricked and really called the police?”

“Silly, they won’t. After all, they’re really cheats.” Ye Lin smiled warmly. “Be careful in the future. Think about what flaws they have when you encounter something. Attacking the heart is best. It’s useless to just reason with them.”

Lan Xin was stunned by this smile. She was even more mesmerized by him. Not only was he a rich man, he was also handsome, smart, and so affable!

“I’ll remember it. By the way, what’s your name? Anyway, I was delayed today. Why don’t I treat you to lunch?” Lan Xin asked with a smile. As they ate, he might become her boyfriend.

“There’s no need. I still have something on later. I was just helping out when I saw injustice,” Ye Lin said as he got into his car.

“Ah, wait. Tell me your name and contact details first,” Lan Xin pressed, but Ye Lin had already disappeared.

This matter made Lan Xin unable to sleep well for a few days after returning.

She wanted to investigate the other party, but she realized that she had no information.

After being conflicted for a few days, she did not expect to meet him at this meal today.

Ye Lin touched the back of his head and smiled shyly. “It’s just a small matter. Don’t take it to heart.”

On the other hand, Bai Ran looked at them and asked curiously, “Sister Xin, Brother Ye Lin, do you know each other?”

“Ran Ran, you two know each other too!” Lan Xin said happily. So they were old friends. To think she had been conflicted for a few days.

“Ran Ran and I grew up together.” Ye Lin smiled at Bai Ran.

“Then let me introduce myself. I’m Lan Xin. I’m a colleague of Ran Ran’s who works together with her. I’m also her good friend.” Lan Xin reached out her hand, already thinking about how to bribe Bai Ran to let her help her.

Ye Lin shook her hand back and said, “My name is Ye Lin. Then I’ll have to trouble you to help take care of our Ran Ran usually.”

He kept calling her ‘our Ran Ran’?

A hint of suspicion suddenly appeared in Lan Xin’s eyes. It seemed like she could only ask in private.

Chen Chen also saw the commotion over here and joked, “Ye Lin, you can still chat so enthusiastically with a girl you don’t know. You’re indeed a young girl killer.”

Lan Xin looked at Ye Lin and recalled his actions that day. He did not look like a player no matter how she looked at it.

Ye Lin did not care at all and said, “No, I was a hero who saved the beauty that day. This world is small! So we’re all acquaintances.”
