Chapter 11 Jessica: I'm going to give her a good scolding
Chen Ran withdrew his gaze at the opportune moment and took the initiative to say, "Actually, you don't need to be so polite."
Jessica Jung smiled and shook her head: "It's nothing. Chen Ran helped me avoid a risk. If it weren't for you, I might have really believed that liar Kwon Ning-il."
"It's not a possibility, it's a certainty. Following the original trajectory, you really believed Quan Ningyi and were swindled out of tens of millions of US dollars," Chen Ran thought to himself.
The dishes they ordered were served one after another, and the two ate and chatted.
After a rather pointless conversation, Jessica Jung glanced at Chen Ran, swallowed the food in her mouth, and got to the point.
"Did Chen Ran and Quan Ningyi know each other before?"
She invited Chen Ran to dinner today not only to express her gratitude, but also primarily to find out Chen Ran's identity.
Chen Ran continued picking up food with his chopsticks, seemingly casually saying, "Well, I have a friend in America who tricked me before."
This was the story he and Jessica had agreed on yesterday.
Both of them knew the purpose of Jessica Jung treating them to dinner.
Chen Ran had no intention of concealing his identity or pretending to be someone from the upper class.
Now that the goal of letting Jessica know Kwon Ning-il's true colors has been achieved, all that's left is to find a plausible reason to deal with Jessica's doubts.
"I see."
Jessica Jung nodded, then asked, "Why did Chen Ran help me?"
She paused, then added, "I want to know the real reason."
She's straightforward and doesn't like to beat around the bush when she speaks.
Chen Ran blinked, pretending not to understand: "I said that night that I'm your fan and I don't want to see you being deceived by Quan Ningyi."
That same phrase again.
Jessica Jung pursed her lips: "Is Chen Ran really my fan?"
"Of course, I know Jessicaxi very well."
I learned that we had shared a bed just two days ago, and that I had seen 80% of his body.
After all, Jessica's older sister wasn't shy at all; even when sleeping with him, she would still wear her lace pajamas without hesitation.
Jessica Jung didn't believe it at all, but since the other party clearly didn't want to talk about it, she didn't ask any further.
Regardless, Chen Ran currently harbors no ill will towards her, and it wouldn't hurt to make some friends with him.
After the meal, Jessica Jung paid by card.
The two walked to the restaurant entrance.
"How are you getting home, Chen Ran? Do you need me to take you?" Jessica Jung asked politely.
Unexpectedly, Chen Ran looked at her and then nodded: "Okay, then I'll trouble you, Jessicaxi."
Jessica Jung: "..."
Seeing Jessica Jung pause for a moment, Chen Ran smiled inwardly.
He didn't have any other thoughts, he just suddenly had a bit of a wicked sense of humor.
He just received a message from Jessica saying that she let Krystal Jung into her home.
So now Jessica and Krystal Jung are living in the house for 25 years.
It would be quite interesting to have Jessica Jung take me home.
Of course, Chen Ran had no intention of letting Jessica Jung into his house right now.
He won't bring anyone else home until trust is established.
And so, Chen Ran confidently sat in the passenger seat of Jessica Jung's car.
About twenty minutes later, the car stopped in front of the villa.
Jessica Jung glanced outside and said, "Chen Ran lives here? That's pretty close to our dorm."
"Is that so?"
Chen Ran smiled and unbuckled his seatbelt: "Thank you for your help. Drive carefully on the way back. I'll head back now."
"it is good."
Watching Chen Ran walk to the front gate, Jessica Jung glanced at the small villa again, memorized the location, and then stepped on the gas and drove away.
Chen Ran stood at the front door, turned his head to look around, and then opened the door and went inside.
There was a pair of women's shoes noticeably added to the entryway.
"You're back~" Jessica's voice rang out from inside the house.
"Um."
Chen Ran responded and went inside.
Besides Jessica, there was another person sitting next to her on the sofa in the living room.
Upon seeing Chen Ran, Krystal Jung immediately stood up and greeted him: "Hello, Chen Ran-xi, I'm Krystal Jung."
"Hello," Chen Ran replied with a smile.
Krystal Jung, the maknae of f(x), is often seen in posters and TV shows on Peninsula.
The face before him appeared more mature than the one he had seen before.
"May I call you Krystal?"
Krystal Jung nodded: "Okay."
"Okay, then you can just call me Chen Ran."
After exchanging greetings, they sat down again on the sofa.
Jessica smiled at Chen Ran: "So, what did Jessica Jung ask you during dinner?"
Upon hearing this, Krystal Jung's eyes flickered.
Although Jessica had just told her about the house's magic and how she had successfully changed part of the past.
But now, hearing Jessica talk to Chen Ran about her past self as if it were a casual chat, she still feels a sense of unreality.
So, Chen Ran really did just come back from having dinner with Jessica Jung from 2012.
Chen Ran leaned back slightly in his chair: "Just as you guessed, she didn't believe my claim that I was her fan, but I didn't explain further, so she didn't press the matter. This matter should be considered closed."
As he spoke, he chuckled again, "Jessica Jung drove me back just now; her car was parked right in front of my house."
"off"
Jessica scoffed, "Then why don't you invite her in? Since both Soojung and I are here, we can have a good chat with her."
"What's up? You want to catch up with her?"
"Oh..."
Jessica sneered, "I want to scold her and show her the stupid things she's done."
Upon hearing this, both Chen Ran and Jung Soo-jung showed strange expressions.
What's this? He's just insulting himself.
Besides, weren't those stupid things you did before?
Jessica blushed slightly under their gazes and said in a somewhat weak voice, "What, can't I scold her?"
She is herself, and Jessica Jung is Jessica Jung.
What does Jessica have to do with the stupid things Jessica Jung did?
"Yes, of course."
After spending the past few days together, Chen Ran had gained some experience; this older sister needed to be handled gently.
"So, if Chen Ran opens the door and goes out now, there's still me outside the door?" Jung Soo-jung asked, her eyes sparkling.
Chen Ran nodded and pointed to the TV in the living room: "If you turn on the TV now, you might even see yourself on a variety show from 12."
Krystal Jung picked up the remote control with great interest and turned on the TV.
"Wow, this picture quality is really from 2012! That's amazing."
She kept changing channels, her sense of novelty lingering for a long time.
"Alright, alright, is it really that good? This picture quality is unbearable to look at for too long."
Jessica gave Krystal a disdainful push, forgetting that on the first day the houses were merged, she was in the same state, looking around and touching everything.
"Alright, it's getting late, Soojung, you can go back now."
She started kicking people out.
Krystal Jung glanced at the clock: 8:33.
You call this "it's getting late"?
She glanced around the house again, and her eyes suddenly lit up as she looked at the guest rooms upstairs.
Krystal turned to look at Jessica and blinked.
"Jessica, can I stay here tonight?"
