They all want to control me!

Back to the rental house.

Lin Ran studied the system that had entered search mode.

Except for the inability to set the time to control the body tomorrow, everything else is normal.

However, I never expected there would be a second person in control. I thought I was bound to Jiang Qiaoqiao for life.

Lin Ran wasn't too worried about the second controller. He had a one-click option to cancel control, so if the second controller behaved badly, he could just kick them out.

Does this mean I've become a public bus, where anyone can squeeze in and ride around? It's not clean anymore.

After taking a shower in the bathroom, Lin Ran sat in front of the computer and edited the song "Coral Sea" that she would sing at the welcome party.

When Gao Yan was asked to film the video, she was given only one requirement: "realism."

Simply put, the goal is to avoid making the audience realize that the video was deliberately filmed, and to shoot it from the audience's perspective as much as possible.

Judging from the results of the filming, Gao Yan understood what he meant.

The shaky camera, with its densely packed crowd in front of it, occasionally flashing across the stage before suddenly shifting elsewhere, might have made Lin Ran believe it to be real if he weren't the mastermind behind it all.

Lin Ran sat in front of the computer until 11 o'clock, then yawned, went to the bathroom, turned off the light, and prepared to go to sleep.

ding dong~

Jiang Qiaoqiao: Are you asleep?

Lin Ran: No, what's wrong?

"Jiang Qiaoqiao: We chat every night. Now, if I don't chat with you before bed, it feels weird, hehe."

Lin Ran turned over and started typing on her phone.

Lin Ran: Shall we make a video call?

Jiang Qiaoqiao: No, Aunt Zhao is cleaning outside the door, I feel like she might hear me.

"Jiang Qiaoqiao: (Image)"

In the picture, an exquisite modern blue and white porcelain cup holds a pink rose and sits on a balcony, with a bright moon shining outside the window.

Lin Ran: This rose is living the good life thanks to you. Take good care of it, and I might take it back anytime soon.

Jiang Qiaoqiao: *Sigh* No way!

Lin Ran suddenly laughed out loud, as if he could imagine Jiang Qiaoqiao pouting as she sent the message.

The two had never met before and communicated only through a mobile phone. Jiang Qiaoqiao had only shown her face in the video once, so it was impossible to imagine her being funny.

Things are different now. Lin Ran can easily imagine Jiang Qiaoqiao's angry, happy, and shy expressions.

Her face became clearer.

Lin Ran: If you won't give it to me, I'll just steal it!

Lin Ran: Let's stop here for today. I'm exhausted from the welcome party and the walk with you tonight. I have class tomorrow, so I'm going to rest now.

Jiang Qiaoqiao: Mm, goodnight.

Lin Ran: Good night.

…………

After Friday's anatomy class, Lin Ran was called aside by the professor, who told him some things to keep in mind when going to the hospital on Sunday and gave him a brand new white coat.

"When we get to the hospital, you can just call me Professor Sun," Professor Sun said with a smile.

"it is good."

Lin Ran nodded in agreement.

The person in front of me is a true big shot.

Professor Sun is the chief physician of the Department of Orthopedics at Jiangning Central Hospital, a top-tier figure in the hospital. He is also a professor at Jiangning University on a temporary assignment. He is nearing retirement, and most of the department's affairs are managed by the deputy director. He often comes to teach classes when he has free time, which the university is happy to do.

The medical field is unlike other fields; it has a more distinct class system, and people rely entirely on their skills to make a living. Some modern textbooks are revised slowly, and some doctors' practical experience far exceeds that of the textbooks. The older and more skilled a doctor is, the more influence they have.

Therefore, if Lin Ran cultivates a good relationship with Professor Sun, she will have a better future and a higher chance of staying at a top-tier hospital in the city during her internship or apprenticeship.

Professor Sun only has one long lecture in the morning, and then he goes back to the city hospital after class.

Lin Ran leisurely went to the cafeteria to eat by herself.

Xiao Nan was grabbed by Gao Yan like a chick and left to do who-knows-where. Tao Zhiyao had dinner with her roommates, leaving him all alone.

As the saying goes, strong people are always lonely.

If Jiang Qiaoqiao could come to school, that would be so much fun; I could at least have some fun during meals and tease her. Unfortunately, this reclusive rich girl's family won't let her in.

While eating spicy hot pot, the phone suddenly rang. It was Lin's mother calling.

"Is Xiaoran free right now?"

"I may have free time, but my stomach is never free."

"If you have time, could you pick someone up at Jiangning South Station?"

Lin Ran stuffed a shrimp ball into his mouth and asked:

"Who?"

"Su Lingle".

"Pfft! Cough...cough cough cough!"

Lin Ran almost spat out the shrimp ball in her mouth, never expecting to hear that name from her mother.

Comrade Li Xiaohong noticed her son's strong reaction and asked somewhat nervously:

"Is it because Qiaoqiao is around that it's inconvenient to talk about other girls?"

"It's nothing about Jiang Qiaoqiao. I'm eating alone in the cafeteria. Mom, why did you suddenly ask me to pick up Su Lingle? Has she come to Jiangning?"

"The girl got off the high-speed train and went to the restroom. Her phone was stolen from the sink. Luckily, her luggage wasn't stolen. She doesn't have any change, so she borrowed a stranger's phone to call me and asked you to pick her up. You're the only person she knows in Jiangning."

"Wait... why are you looking for me? Where are her parents?"

"Shh, Xiaoran, please don't mention Lele's parents in front of her," Li Xiaohong said in a low voice. "I asked Lele the same question, but she didn't answer me directly, and her tone was a bit awkward, as if she had a conflict with her family and ran away from home. You also ran away from home once when you were little, so you should know that at this time... you're especially reluctant to talk about your parents. I'll contact her parents later, Xiaoran, don't worry."

"..."

My goodness, I haven't seen Su Lingle for three years, how come you still seem to know her very well, even calling her by her nickname "Lele"?

It's worth mentioning that Su Lingle's stage name in the entertainment industry is also "Lele".

After hanging up the phone, Lin Ran slurped up his spicy ramen, turned to look out the window, and saw dark clouds blowing in the wind; it looked like it was going to rain.

1:30 PM.

Lin Ran dawdled as he arrived at the high-speed rail station.

Jiangning is an important transportation hub connecting the north and south. The high-speed rail station was packed with people, and he didn't know which way to go for a moment.

Comrade Li Xiaohong said that Su Lingle was having lunch at a small stall selling roujiamo (Chinese hamburger) outside.

I looked around but didn't see any vendors. Were they chased away by the security guards?

Suddenly, the crowd in front started making a commotion, and automatically parted to make way for a woman wearing jeans and a cropped top, who was eating a roujiamo (Chinese hamburger) as she walked over.

Her hair was dyed caramel color with curls at the ends. She had an amazing figure; when she walked, it felt like her hips and chest were swaying, giving off a conservative yet open vibe.

Wearing a mask and sunglasses, her face is not visible, but a woman with such a great figure subconsciously makes people think that her face is also quite beautiful.

The woman walked straight up to Lin Ran, stared at him for three seconds, and then suddenly said:

"Heavenly King covers the Earth Tiger!"

"The pagoda suppresses the river demon... I say that meme is outdated."

"I'm your father!"

"My dear grandson, call me grandpa!"

"What do you think is the most romantic thing in the world?"

"Going to the beach at dusk."

After hearing Lin Ran's answer, the woman lowered her head slightly. Her sunglasses were a bit big, revealing a pair of foxy eyes. There seemed to be a glint in her eyes, full of charm. She stared at Lin Ran for a few seconds, then took a step forward and hugged his head tightly.

Under duress, Lin Ran fell into the deepest ditch in the world—the milk that men cannot escape√, and ended up with a mouthful of face wash.

The woman declared with great enthusiasm, "The three-year period has ended! I, Su Lingle, the Dragon King, have returned!"
