Chapter 132 I Want to Have a Home with You
For Lin Xueyao, an internet celebrity with millions of followers across the internet, Ye Lan was merely mentioned briefly on her homepage.
In just one day, Ye Lan gained nearly 60 followers.
In this way, Ye Lan was qualified to participate in the King of Glory New Year's Greeting Show.
But Ye Lan still didn't understand.
Even if Lin Xueyao wanted to help him, why did she have to do it this way?
Moreover, they deliberately labeled themselves as lovers.
Isn't this tarnishing his reputation?
Thinking of this, Ye Lan switched apps and contacted Lin Xueyao, questioning her about why she did this.
Soon after, I received a message from the other party.
"Didn't you say in the video that you needed fans to complete tasks? I was just thinking of helping you attract some traffic."
"How's it going? Pretty good, right? You should have 100 million followers by now, right?"
Because Ye Lan had told Xu Zhiqiang about the King's New Year's Greeting Show.
So when Xu Zhiqiang was editing the video yesterday, he added the line "Pay more attention and aim for a million followers."
Lin Xueyao took this to heart and carried it out.
Ye Lan typed with one hand, “Your fans are very enthusiastic. I now have 150 million fans.”
"Great, it seems that having this account is actually somewhat useful."
Although the two were separated by a screen, they were chatting using cold text.
But Ye Lan couldn't help but think of that incredibly gluttonous girl who always stuffed her cheeks full.
She was looking at him with a smile, revealing a row of neat, white teeth.
"I want to ask you why you labeled me as a lover."
Ye Lan knew that Lin Xueyao wanted to help her.
But this approach is too extreme.
As a female internet celebrity loved by millions of fans, making an official announcement would inevitably result in losing followers.
It's true that Ye Lan gained 60 followers, but Lin Xueyao lost a whopping 200 million followers.
It can be said to be a heavy loss.
Ye Lan wanted to know why Lin Xueyao would resort to such a self-destructive method to help her.
After a long pause, Lin Xueyao finally said, "Because... I really want to be your lover."
In a simple sentence, the meaning is clear and straightforward.
Such a frank expression left Ye Lan momentarily speechless.
"I want a home," Lin Xueyao said again.
Ye Lan typed a reply: "But you have a family, don't you? Your dad is so rich, so many people are envious of him."
"But... I want a home that belongs only to me."
"Together with you!"
After a moment, Lin Xueyao spoke again.
At this moment, Ye Lan really didn't know how to answer.
This wasn't the first time he'd been confessed to, but even with all his experience, he still didn't know how to respond.
"What exactly are feelings like being smitten and liking someone?"
Liking something is a feeling that comes after time has passed and been refined.
If physical attraction can be called liking, then Ye Lan likes every female protagonist in the video.
But after a shiver, everything becomes utterly boring.
That's not called liking; at best, it can only be called desire.
Desire is a fleeting yet endless thing, and Ye Lan does not want to be bound by it for life.
After much deliberation, Ye Lan, still unsure of what to do, turned her attention back to Lin Xueyao's message.
He immediately pictured a cute, lively, yet incredibly clingy little girl who loved to stuff her cheeks full of food.
A wealthy heiress, exceptionally beautiful, and tall...
Lin Xueyao's Douyin videos are all of her traveling all over the country. Her smile is very healing and she is very happy.
But Ye Lan felt that the other person wasn't really happy.
During their meeting a few days ago, Ye Lan could clearly sense that Lin Xueyao was the kind of child who desperately needed love.
That kind of dependency is often seen in left-behind children.
If you treat her well, she will keep clinging to you.
"Sigh, it seems every family has its own troubles."
Ye Lan sighed, lay down on the sofa, put her arm behind her head, and stared blankly at the bright crystal chandelier above her.
Not knowing how to answer, he chose to ignore it and turned off his phone.
After lying down for a while, I heard a familiar sound coming from the kitchen.
"Ye Lan, I've finished cooking. Go wash your hands and eat."
"Oh, okay."
Ye Lan obediently went into the bathroom, carefully washed her hands with hand sanitizer, and then went to the living room to eat.
Wearing a pink maid apron, Ning Caicai was serving plates of delicious-looking dishes to the table, her bangs slightly damp and stuck together.
Seeing this, Ye Lan casually pulled a tissue from the tissue box on the table and handed it to Ning Caicai:
"Wipe the sweat from your forehead."
Ning Caicai, who had been busy in the kitchen for half a day, had rosy cheeks. When she saw Ye Lan hand her a tissue, dimples naturally appeared on her cheeks.
Ning Caicai was very happy today, so the dishes on the table were very plentiful.
There's fish, meat, shrimp, eggs...
At the dinner table, Ye Lan's mind was still filled with Lin Xueyao's words, and she seemed preoccupied while eating.
Ning Caicai bit one end of the chopsticks with her pearly teeth, her eyes brimming with clear, flowing water.
"Ye Lan".
"Ok?"
"Why don't you come back with me to meet my parents sometime?"
"Cough cough cough..."
Ye Lan choked and almost spat out her food from her nostrils. "What did you say? Say it again?"
“I want you to come back with me to meet my parents.” Ning Caicai actually repeated it.
"Just kidding, buddy. We agreed yesterday that I would only be your boyfriend for one day, and now the time is up."
Ye Lan refused decisively without hesitation.
He's only 18 years old, and he hasn't even experienced all the beauties at the foot massage parlor yet, but he's already going to go back with a girl to meet his parents.
Don't even think about it.
Marriage is like a high-walled tomb; those outside envy it but can't get in, and those inside loathe it but can't get out.
Ning Caicai used her chopsticks to poke at the white rice in her bowl.
“I didn’t want to either, but my parents found out about what happened today. They just called and asked me to bring you back before the end of the year so they can give me their opinion.”
How did your parents find out about what happened today?
“My job as an intern teacher was arranged for me by my uncle, so he has his informants at the school. They told him about what happened today, and then he told my parents.”
Ning Caicai looked as wronged as a child who had made a mistake.
Ye Lan didn't even have the thought of blaming her.
However, Ye Lan still resisted.
"Well, if you're going to get married in the future, you'll have to meet my parents anyway, so let's just use this opportunity to test the waters."
Ning Caicai took Ye Lan's arm and looked at her expectantly.
"Okay, if you agree, I'll give you a legendary skin."
Upon hearing this, Ye Lan raised her eyebrows slightly and looked at Ning Caicai with a serious expression.
"Do I look like someone who can be bought off with a legendary skin?"
"At least two!"
