Qingyun's Love: Tiger Boy Falls in Love with a Pretty Lawyer

Ranmo said he didn't want to go far today. Qingsheng thought about it and said he would take him to meet his friends. He hadn't taken Ranmo to meet them yet.

He took Ranmo to a mansion. He didn't go in to see the head of the household, but simply called out the companions and introduced them to each other. The young master, looking refined and elegant, offered to treat them to a meal. Qingsheng said he had already eaten and would meet them next time. Seeing it was getting late, he and Ranmo said goodbye and went home.

On the way, Ranmo asked Qingsheng if he had many friends. Qingsheng said not many, but only a few he could talk to. He glanced at Ranmo and added, "I'm afraid there are only one or two who are truly close to me."

Ranmo simply said that he didn't have many friends and that his mind was focused on studying. Qingsheng had been waiting for Ranmo to ask who those one or two were, but she brushed it off, and he couldn't help but squeeze her hand even tighter.

When he returned to the mansion and just entered the gate, a servant came running to report that the eldest prince had returned and invited the younger prince to come over and talk.

Upon hearing this, Qingsheng took Ranmo with him, as she had never met the eldest son. They arrived at a large wing room, knocked on the door, and went in. They saw a man sitting at a table with his back to the desk, writing a document.

Hearing the two men enter the room, the man put down his pen and turned to face them. Qingsheng went over, patted his arm, and asked him when he came back.

While answering, Ran Mo took a closer look at the man. He was tall and thin, with a slightly stern expression. He had the dignified temperament of a young master.

Qingsheng introduced Ranmo to him. He said he had heard about it from his mother, and exchanged pleasantries with Ranmo. He told her to let Qingsheng take her around more often during this time, and to let her know if there was anything he could not do to entertain her well.

Ran Mo hurriedly said sorry for bothering him. He had seen a lot of new things in the city recently, which was considered a kind of progress. He thanked the host for his warm hospitality.

The man nodded slightly and told Qingsheng that his father would be back soon and might have something to ask him, so he should not run around.

Qingsheng nodded perfunctorily. "Big Brother, you must be tired. Then rest early. We'll take our leave now." Big Brother nodded in agreement. Then the two of them left and returned to their rooms.

Qingsheng told Ranmo that only his father and his elder brother could control him. Fortunately, everyone got along well, and his elder brother treated him well.

Ranmo felt that the elder brother had quite an aura, but was a bit aloof, which made her feel a little oppressive. She didn't dare to tell Qingsheng.

Ranmo was about to go back to her room, but Qingsheng grabbed her and shoved her through the door. Ranmo wanted to talk tomorrow, but Qingsheng told her to sleep here tonight. Then he pointed toward the wall. There, a slightly smaller bed had appeared.

Ranmo was stunned. Qingsheng told her that before he left in the morning, he had asked the servant to add an extra bed to his room, and Ranmo would sleep there to keep him company at night.

Ranmo hurriedly said that this was not a good idea, and that it would be inappropriate if others knew about it. Qingsheng said, "Why not?" It was common for brothers to sleep with their feet touching. He then leaned closer to Ranmo and said solemnly, "What are you afraid of? Can't you be more open-minded?"

Ran Mo was really impressed by him. He didn't know where he learned this from, but he acted so majestically even though he clearly wanted to do it, which made others think he had something to hide.

But since the bed was already made, she reluctantly accepted it. Fortunately, there were two beds, and she didn't have to be afraid of him.

After washing up, they both lay down. Perhaps exhausted from the day, neither spoke. Ranmo gathered his thoughts, reflecting on the long and varied journey and experiences of the past few days, feeling a surge of emotion.

Especially her relationship with Qingsheng, from the accidental meeting in that place at the beginning, to the gradual familiarity, to now living in the same house and even... She felt like she had a long dream.

Qingsheng turned over and found Ranmo was still awake, so he asked her what she was thinking about. Ranmo evaded the question by saying that she was thinking about how to catch up on her homework after returning to school.

Qingsheng was silent for a moment, then said, "How about you transfer to Dayue City to study? You can live at my house. We can learn literature and martial arts together. Wouldn't that be wonderful?"

Hearing his words, Ran Mo was really touched.

Life in that small town was dull and boring. She was constantly depressed, yet she couldn't escape it. Junior high was especially difficult. That was probably the most chaotic period of her second year.

My uncle had suggested that Ranmo come to the city to live with him and study. Even my usually indifferent aunt agreed. My uncle even took her to an interview at the factory's children's school.

Unfortunately, upon returning to the small town, Weihua flatly rejected the idea, saying her aunt's family conditions were too poor and her aunt wasn't a good person, so she absolutely couldn't go. Her mother remained noncommittal. Ranmo hadn't made up his mind at the time. Unfortunately, the trip never took place.

Later, an incident involving a change of desk mates caused a disturbance in class. This became the catalyst and the final straw that broke the camel's back. Ranmo was extremely upset and felt like she was going to collapse if she stayed any longer. She had to change. Otherwise, she would do something stupid again.

She was listless at school, not talking to anyone. When she got home, she acted like a madman, banging her head against the wall and saying she didn't want to live anymore.

Her mother didn't know what had happened. She begged her mother to go to the city to ask relatives for help and see if she could transfer to a school there, just any school. This was her last resort.

After her mother left, she eagerly awaited news of her. A few days later, her mother returned. She looked exhausted and said nothing as she entered the room. Ranmo thought there was no hope.

My mother said slowly: I have discussed with my relatives, and I am afraid that I can’t get into a very good school, so I can only go to an ordinary middle school first.

This was already pretty good! Ran Mo's gloom cleared away. She hadn't expected her mother to be so capable, and she had some incredibly capable relatives. She was finally going to realize her first dream in this stage of her life.

During her preparations, she happened to run into a cousin from the city. When he heard she was transferring to a school here, he frowned. He offered earnest advice: "You've already been there for so many years, and these are your last two years. Why do you want to go back to the city? What if you become a bad student here?"

Ran Mo listened to his rhetoric with wide eyes, appearing impassive, yet feeling disgusted within. He truly has a good heart. You've lived in the city for so many years and haven't seen anyone go astray. My family lived a hard life in that small town, and now we finally have the opportunity to go to school here, and you're so easily corrupted? Do you have any compassion at all?

Fortunately, things had already come to fruition, and he didn't care about her nagging. Ran Mo would never believe those seemingly caring lies again.

City kids are very polite. None of the problems she'd worried about occurred. At first, they were a little distant, but gradually, they became familiar with each other.

There were several enthusiastic local students in my class. There was a burly boy named Bater, the same name as the basketball star. He was quiet, but always had a faint smile on his face.

There's a beautiful girl with big eyes named Gunawan. She told us her original name was Gunawan, but after learning the lesson "Treasure Island Taiwan," she thought the character "wan" sounded nice and meaningful, so she changed it to "wan." It sounds quite interesting.

Ranmo had a good foundation and worked very hard, so her grades soon became top of the class. This made her more confident in front of her classmates.

The girls in the class were all dazzling and beautiful. She had two closest friends: one was a dignified and elegant announcer at the school radio station, often appearing on children's programs at the city TV station. The other was gentle and beautiful, with short hair and a smile as warm and romantic as a spring flower.

Meeting her was truly Ranmo's luck. He couldn't recall when they first became close, but their time together grew increasingly comfortable. On their way home from school, they'd share a section of the road. They'd walk side by side, sometimes shy and silent, sometimes beaming with joy, only regretting that the distance was too short.

There was a Yangchun noodle shop on the side of the road. This was the first time I'd heard of this kind of noodles. It would be nice if there was a street garden. Ranmo imagined walking hand in hand with her among the flowers. A girl, flowers, butterflies—what a beautiful and enchanting picture.

Some students from other classes also came over and started talking to her. She was so happy, but she had to pretend to be reserved on the surface.

There was a boy with bright dark eyes and a bit of a simple-minded look who was a bit familiar with her. He liked to grab her sleeve and talk to her, which was quite cute.

Ranmo told him that she might have to transfer schools in the future, and he said anxiously: "Don't transfer." That cute little expression made her laugh and a little touched.

Now that Qingsheng had taken the initiative to ask her to go to school here, whether it was in her heart or not, she was grateful that he had taken her into consideration. However, her desire to transfer schools and change places was not as strong as it was then.

Back then, one of my biggest hopes was to meet good classmates and make good friends, but now I don’t seem to be looking forward to it that much anymore. I don’t know why.

Ranmo simply responded to Qingsheng and said, "Let's go to sleep." Then he closed his eyes and tried to fall asleep.
