Chapter 240 - 136: Waiting for You
Sigh~
So exhausting.
My body can’t take it.
Seeing their breakfast, Su Ran felt hungry too, so he cooked a bowl of noodles for himself.
BEEP BEEP BEEP.
Just then, Shan Weizi added Su Ran to a group chat called "Rejecting Girly Drama."
Members: Shan Weizi, Liu Piaopiao, Shan Changqing, Shan Zhentian, Liu Buqun, Su Ran.
Shan Changqing: [Newbie sends a red packet.]
Su Ran didn’t dare say much. He privately messaged Shan Weizi: [A family group chat?]
Shan Weizi: [You can leave.]
Su Ran: [Not leaving (laughing while covering face)]
’How could I dare leave? If I did, I’d offend everyone. Spirit Sword Mountain wouldn’t let me off the hook.’
Su Ran: [Red Packet]
Shan Changqing: [Generous boss.]
’This old man is actually pretty interesting, aside from his wall-humping habit.’
Liu Piaopiao: [A penny? Not good enough. You have to send a big one just for me. Don’t let anyone else grab it.]
Shan Weizi: [Ms. Liu, read the group name. No girly drama.]
Shan Zhentian: [Piaopiao, don’t bully Su Ran.]
Su Ran: [(Red Packet exclusively for Sister Piaopiao)]
Liu Piaopiao: [Thanks.]
Shan Weizi: [Where’s mine?]
Su Ran: [(10,000 Yuan Transfer, Recipient: Shan Weizi)]
Shan Weizi: [Hahaha, now that’s generous.]
’The vibe is pretty good.’
After that, Shan Changqing sent a 60-second voice message. Just looking at it gave Su Ran a headache. After patiently listening to it, the gist was that next Friday was Shan Changqing’s 70th birthday, and he wanted Su Ran to come to Hangzhou early to help greet the guests.
’Uh... that actually carries a lot of weight. They’re really treating me as one of their own.’
"Okay, my sister has her exams tomorrow. I promised to take her to KFC when she’s finished, so I’ll head over right after that."
He sent the voice message.
Shan Weizi called right away.
"You have a sister?"
"We’re not related by blood."
"...So, the kind you can marry?"
"What are you even thinking? She’s just a High School Student, my little sister, that’s all. Don’t read too much into it."
"Oh, is that so? You gave me a scare. I was wondering how you suddenly had a sister."
"Well..." Su Ran briefly told her about Ning Wenwen. That was just how he was. It wasn’t like Wenwen was some shameful secret, so he was perfectly willing to talk about his sister.
He then asked about the situation with Shan Weizi and Sister Piaopiao. Shan Weizi said she had smoothed things over.
"..."
’Su Ran felt like laughing. This Sister Piaopiao was nothing like a mom.’
Speak of the devil.
Liu Piaopiao added Su Ran on WeChat through the group chat. Her username was: [Be Your Little Kitty]
’This... isn’t this username a bit too... girly?’
Liu Piaopiao: [Whatcha doin’?]
Su Ran: [Just about to go out and have some fun (smile)]
Liu Piaopiao: [Go like my Moments post. I need to get 108 likes to trade them for a big yellow duck cup.]
Su Ran: [Okay.]
He obediently went to her Moments and liked the post.
Then he looked through her Moments feed.
It was all glamorous photos of herself.
’I have to admit, this potential mother-in-law is gorgeous.’
Like. He liked every single post on her Moments.
Su Ran didn’t go anywhere all day. He was a homebody by nature and didn’t like to go shopping. He just stayed in his game room, played some games, and chatted with them. The day passed just like that.
In the evening, he went to Ning Wenwen’s house again for one last tutoring session. In truth, with the exam just around the corner, there wasn’t much need for more review. His main goal was just to remind her to be careful, to double-check her work, and not to lose points carelessly.
"...That’s pretty much everything you need to watch out for. Be meticulous, okay?"
He patted her head.
"Mhm, I got it, Brother Su Ran. My dad said he saw you arrive on your motorcycle just now?"
"Yeah, why?"
"Then can you take me for a ride later?"
"You have final exams tomorrow. This is no time for joyrides. Get back to studying."
"Will you come wait for me at the school gate on your motorcycle tomorrow, then?"
"It’s not like it’s the national entrance exams. Why make such a big deal out of it?"
"I’ll only do well on the test if you come."
"Fine, I’ll wait for you at the school gate tomorrow."
"Brother Su Ran, you’re the best."
"I hope you’re the last girl to say that."
"What?"
"It’s nothing. I’m heading out."
’Am I too nice to girls?’
’They all say, "Su Ran, you’re so nice," and then, one after another, they fall for me.’
’I hope no more girls say that about me.’
Returning home that night, he heard from Lin Che that the biker gang was lying in wait for him on Ao Mountain, so Su Ran avoided Ao Mountain and took a detour home.
While soaking in the bath at home, Lin Che sent him a WeChat message: [Hahaha... search "Ao Mountain’s God of Bikes" on Douyin. You’re in for a surprise.]
"..."
Completely bewildered, Su Ran searched on Douyin. He found several videos from different angles, all showing the same thing: his Kawasaki H2 from last night. With a powerful WHIR, it shot up from the middle of the mountain, launching forward like an arrow loosed from a bow. The backdraft lifted the short skirt of a girl by the road, who yelped and clutched at the hem, thinking the rider was an absolute menace.
The "God of Bikes" on a Kawasaki H2, a mysterious rider, instantly smoking a biker gang that had trained diligently for a decade—the video went viral within Anyang’s biker community before spreading rapidly across the country online.
The comments were as follows:
Xiao Ze: "This cornering technique must have taken at least ten years of hard practice. He’s definitely a veteran rider."
Xiao Ma: "He’s wearing a backpack... could he be a student riding home from school?"
Xiao Li: "A master rider from a backwater place like Anyang?"
Xiao Ya: "Am I the only one who noticed the wind flip up that girl’s miniskirt? It was pink."
The comments were all over the place. Outsiders were cursing out the damn biker, while insiders were blown away by his skill and trying to guess his identity.
However, a user named [Old Wang of the Anyang Motorcycle Club] posted a comment: "I am on Ao Mountain, waiting in this world of dust for your return, to have you join our club."
Afterward, [Anyang Traffic Management Bureau] posted a comment: "A motorcycle is cool, but life is priceless. Tonight, we’re conducting a city-wide crackdown on biker gangs, with a focus on Ao Mountain. In this turbulent world of dust, we’ll be waiting for you there!"
