The Genius Sweetheart of the Abstinent Goblin Boss

But how could such a damn handsome man be willing to live in a shabby house in the middle of nowhere?

There must be no good intentions!

Maybe it was some pretty boy who appeared out of nowhere and was planning something against Professor Ji, the invisible rich woman!

"No! Ji..."

Chi Tao was nervously preparing to continue analyzing the case with Ji Ran, but Ji Ran ruthlessly and precisely pinched her lips with two fingers.

"So noisy! I'll kick you down if you say anything more." Ji Ran said without any emotion.

"Woo!" Chi Tao could only be angry but not say anything. After all, she knew that Professor Ji would really kick her down.

No matter what! When she goes back to Professor Ji's house, she must go and have a good look at that neighbor! Find out who this pretty boy is! Don't even think about hitting on Professor Ji!

Jiang Baishen watched the two girls in the back seat interacting from the rearview mirror, and once again couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips in a gentle arc.

Xiao Leng really hasn't changed at all, always so domineering, always like this... cold-mouthed but soft-hearted.

But he was a little surprised by her assistant's reaction.

Isn't it normal to have neighbors? Why such a big reaction?

Soon, the car arrived at the gate of Jinxiu Jiangnan Villa District.

"Mr. Jiang, please stop here! I can go in by myself!" Chi Tao said as he was about to open the car door.

Jiang Baishen had just stepped on the brakes and was stunned when he heard this.

He turned his head and looked at Chi Tao getting out of the car in confusion, while Ji Ran was still sitting in the car as steady as a rock.

"Goodbye, Professor Ji. When you get home, you still have to send me a small..." Chi Tao was halfway through her words when she suddenly realized that Mr. Jiang was also listening...

When I turned around, I saw that he had a confused look on his face.

Oops…that’s embarrassing.

"Hey, it's okay, it's okay." Chi Tao said, and then secretly pointed to the phone in her hand at Ji Ran: "Bye!"

He quickly slammed the car door.

"I thought you lived here." Jiang Baishen looked at Ji Ran in the rearview mirror.

Ji Ran did not reply to his words, but sent a location to the contact information just exchanged in Jiang's company, and explained without looking up:

"I've sent you the location. I'll tell you how to get there when we get there."

Jiang Baishen shook his head helplessly and smiled: "Yes, Professor Ji~"

Then he turned on the positioning, started the car again and drove towards the new destination.

This time, the road was really completely quiet.

Ji Ran was quietly browsing scientific literature related to consciousness control, and Jiang Baishen was driving attentively. Only occasionally when waiting for traffic lights, he couldn't help but sneak a glance at Ji Ran through the rearview mirror. His eyes often contained longing that he himself didn't even notice, and a little bit of pampering.

After a while, the car arrived at the positioning point.

Jiang Baishen was surprised to find that the car had actually driven to the edge of the city. The road ahead was pitch black, and there was no other light source except the headlights.

He quickly lowered his head to check the location, wondering if he had taken the wrong road without paying attention.

Ji Ran felt the car stop, and finally looked up and found that they had arrived at the positioning point.

So he began to command: "Keep going forward."

Jiang Baishen turned his head and looked at Ji Ran in surprise: "In front... is the undeveloped primitive forest area..."

"So what?" Ji Ran replied nonchalantly.

"Are you sure???" Jiang Baishen confirmed again in disbelief.

"Are you leaving or not?" Ji Ran urged impatiently.

Jiang Baishen turned back and looked at the pitch-black road ahead, as if it led to hell. It was so scary that his brows couldn't help but furrowed with deep heartache.

How could Xiao Leng live in such a place...

Seeing him looking at the darkness ahead and his breathing a little faster than before, Ji Ran explained with a little more patience:

"Don't worry, there are many forks in the road when you go in, so the navigation can't guide you in. There is only one way out, and the navigation can lead you out~"

Hearing this rare bit of patience from Xiao Leng, Jiang Baishen was suddenly stunned, and then he couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips.

He just felt sorry for her as a girl living in such a place, but she thought that he, as a grown man, was afraid that he couldn't get out.

Seeing that he still didn't move, Ji Ran didn't want to force him:

"Forget it, if you don't dare to go in, then I'll go by myself~"

At worst, I'll just walk for a few hours. It's no big deal.

As he said that, Ji Ran pulled the strap of the computer bag and put it on his shoulder, preparing to open the door and get out of the car.

As a result, the car started moving.

"Eh?" Ji Ran raised his head curiously and looked at the silhouette of Jiang Baishen in the front row.

Why do you suddenly dare to leave again?

Whatever.

With Ji Ran's guidance, the car finally reached the last road along the river.

Looking at the river beside him, some fragments of memory suddenly rushed into Jiang Baishen's brain.

"Where is this?!" His breathing became noticeably more rapid.

"Wow~ You still remember it." Ji Ran joked calmly.

She did find it unbelievable that a prince from a top wealthy family could remember the shabby place where he had stayed for a month as a child.

"Why are you still living here?" Jiang Baishen asked in shock.

Logically speaking, as a genius professor at Jinghua University, Xiao Leng's conditions would not be too bad even if he could not reach the level of a top wealthy family.

Ji Ran rolled his eyes and was too lazy to answer.

That was her home, where she lived with her family. Where else could she go if she left home? If her nanny missed her, where could she find her?

Everyone dislikes the place where she lives, but she doesn't let them live there. Isn't that a problem?

"Is it because Grandma Ji doesn't want to move?" Jiang Baishen tried to find the reason. He read the news and learned a little that some nostalgic elderly people like to stay in their hometowns in the countryside with poor conditions and inconveniences, and are unwilling and unaccustomed to living a good life in the city.

"She's been gone for eleven years." Ji Ran replied calmly.

Jiang Baishen's heart suddenly ached, and his hands gripping the steering wheel tightened unconsciously.

The scene of the loving old lady carrying the injured boy home on her back came to my mind...

There was a mist in front of my eyes and I couldn't utter a word.

When mentioning the wet nurse, Ji Ran's eyes dimmed unconsciously. She turned her head and looked up at the night sky outside the car window.

The starry sky in the suburbs is particularly gorgeous. The moon has regained its brightness and brightness at some point, and is followed and surrounded by the dazzling stars.

Suddenly, a black figure flashed outside the window.

"Eh?" Ji Ran turned his head to look curiously, but unfortunately the road was too dark, making the taillights of the car particularly bright, so everything in the darkness disappeared without a trace.

"What's wrong?" Jiang Baishen, who heard her voice, also asked curiously about the situation.

"It's nothing, I guess you're dazzled." Ji Ran replied indifferently.

After all, where did this human figure come from in such a remote place?

The car arrived quickly.

Jiang Baishen got out of the car and opened the door for Ji Ran, looking at the familiar round wooden door.

It seems...older and more worn than I remember. A lot of sawdust has fallen off, and the red paint has almost faded.

While Jiang Baishen was feeling deeply moved, Ji Ran got out of the car and walked towards the door without saying a word.

"Little cold~"

Jiang Baishen's voice sounded again.

Ji Ran sighed impatiently and turned around: "So what..."

When she turned around, she was hugged tightly by Jiang Baishen.
