Chapter 739 - 742: What Are You Whispering About?

As Jiang Ran was thinking about Pei Huai, she looked up and saw Pei Huai standing not far away.

Beside Pei Huai stood Pei Yang.

Though they stood together, their expressions were worlds apart.

Pei Huai was as calm as ever, but Pei Yang was different.

The expression on Pei Yang’s face was truly complicated.

Nervous, excited, expectant, and even a little scared.

All these emotions were displayed on his face, making it clear what Pei Yang was feeling inside at the moment.

It seemed like a hundred little cats were scratching away at his heart!

Jiang Ran walked over to them, and just as she reached them, Pei Yang impatiently spoke up.

"Sister-in-law! She..."

After uttering just this, Pei Yang got stuck, clearly not knowing what to say next.

Seeing Pei Yang’s hesitant appearance, Jiang Ran smiled slightly.

Obviously, Pei Yang was just another Chen Bing.

Back then, Chen Bing’s thoughts were exactly like Pei Yang’s had been.

And then?

Then he met Shen Yueyue, and everything he had said before was forgotten like a finished meal.

Now Pei Yang was clearly the same.

Pei Yang felt even more embarrassed being looked at like that by Jiang Ran.

"Sister-in-law, why are you looking at me like that?"

Jiang Ran chuckled, "I was just thinking, if Mom sees you like this, would she feel pleased."

Pei Yang, "..."

Pei Yang quickly waved his hand, "Sister-in-law, it’s better not to tell Mom about this yet."

Hearing Pei Yang say this, Jiang Ran didn’t tease him deliberately but nodded, "Alright, we won’t say anything yet."

After all, they didn’t know if things would work out, and telling Wang Cuilan now wouldn’t benefit anyone.

If it didn’t work out in the end, knowing about it would only be awkward.

If she didn’t know, she wouldn’t feel anything.

Seeing Jiang Ran agree, Pei Yang finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Indeed, his sister-in-law was the best.

After chatting for a while after dinner, everyone started to leave.

After all, everyone had their own matters to attend to and couldn’t stay here forever.

Once everyone was seen off, Jiang Ran also felt relieved.

Though a crowd was lively, it could also be a bit noisy.

Now that everyone had left, it naturally became quiet.

The rest of the family went about their own business, but Jiang Ran still had to go to the clinic next door.

After all, it had just opened, and there were still curious people stopping by to take a look.

The clinic was something she had planned for a long time before opening, so of course, she had to take good care of it.

In the afternoon, the crowd was clearly less than in the morning.

But having some people was already quite good.

One shouldn’t ask for too much; having visitors was enough, so why ask for a bicycle?

In the afternoon, by six o’clock, it was time to close.

Once everyone had left, Jiang Ran locked up and returned to the house next door.

As soon as Jiang Ran came back, she saw Wang Cuilan standing under the corridor.

Seeing Wang Cuilan there, Jiang Ran felt a bit puzzled.

"Mom, what are you doing standing here?"

As Wang Cuilan saw Jiang Ran, she quickly walked a few steps up and took Jiang Ran’s arm, speaking softly.

"Ranran, I have something to ask you."

"What is it?"

"What were you all secretly talking about today?"

Jiang Ran, "..."

Looking at Wang Cuilan, Jiang Ran didn’t quite know how to answer that question.
