Chapter 597: So Quickly Got Together

Dog No.2 laughed and said, "Don’t say it’s not true, you both kissed, I saw it with my own eyes."

Lin Fan said, "Don’t misunderstand, everyone. Zi Xin and I are not in a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship. I just pretended to be her boyfriend to deal with Sun Junyao."

Wei Yue’er skeptically said, "Really? Just like Dog No.2 said, you two..."

She was embarrassed to say "kissed", but everyone knew what she meant.

Lin Fan said, "Well, that was to make Sun Junyao believe, so I... regarding this, I need to apologize to Zi Xin. It was rash of me, without your consent, I just..."

Liu Zixing blushed deeply and interrupted Lin Fan: "It’s, it’s okay, you were just helping me, I..."

She bit her lip and didn’t know what to say, thinking about that kiss made her heart beat faster and faster.

Wei Yue’er said, "Lin Fan, Zi Xin, are you really not in that kind of relationship?"

Liu Zixing said, "Really not, Sister Yue’er, I wouldn’t lie to you."

She felt a little melancholy inside. She truly wasn’t Lin Fan’s girlfriend, yet after Lin Fan kissed her, her heart was racing, and now, she seemed to have developed feelings, wishing it were true...

She really wanted to tell Lin Fan, "You’ve kissed me, now you have to take responsibility."

Seeing Liu Zixing say this, Wei Yue’er finally felt relieved, a big stone lifted off her heart, and her mood became lighter.

They’re not a couple, that’s good.

He Chunyu said, "This misunderstanding is big, now everyone in the village thinks you two are a couple, Lin Fan, why didn’t you clarify publicly just now?"

Lin Fan said, "I have to listen to Zi Xin’s opinion on this. If Zi Xin thinks we should clarify, I’ll do it tomorrow."

This move by Lin Fan was so considerate.

Liu Zixing was a bit touched, thought about it, and said, "Maybe don’t clarify. Think about it, Lin Fan kissed me tonight, if we clarify, people might not believe it and there might be gossip. Pretending to be a couple has its benefits, and I won’t be bothered by blind dates anymore."

What Liu Zixing said makes sense, but the real reason she doesn’t want to clarify is that even pretending to be a couple is nice; maybe it will turn real...

This little thought is too shy to say out loud.

Lin Fan laughed and said, "What a coincidence, I also don’t want blind dates to bother me. It seems our pretend relationship has quite a few benefits. When Zi Xin truly meets a boy she likes, we can announce our ’break-up’ then."

Liu Zixing bit her lip, wanting badly to tell Lin Fan that she’s already met the person she likes, and isn’t it you!

Lin Fan’s handling of the situation was indeed the most suitable. Otherwise, if they clarified now, Lin Fan isn’t Liu Zixing’s boyfriend, yet kissed her publicly, there would surely be gossip.

Due to the delay from Sun Junyao’s incident, the food had gone cold, and they ended up eating hastily and then wrapped things up.

Lin Fan and Liu Zixing said their goodbyes and left.

Lin Fan escorted Liu Zixing home, meeting some villagers on the way, and these villagers all gave them ambiguous smiles upon seeing them.

There’s no secret in the village, gossip spreads quickly, it seems the news of Lin Fan and Liu Zixing being a couple has already spread throughout the village, everyone now thinks they are a couple.

"Little Fan, you found a girlfriend, and didn’t even tell us! I was thinking of introducing a girl to you!"

An auntie said with a giggle.

This auntie was a well-known matchmaker in the village, Lin Fan quickly said, "No need to bother, Aunt Six."

An old man pulled Lin Fan, jokingly said, "Little Fan, you lad are doing well, huh? When can we drink your wedding wine?"

Liu Zixing’s face was beet red, she tugged on Lin Fan, signaling to hurry and leave.

Lin Fan smiled and said, "Soon, Grandfather Three, wishing you good health."

After dealing with some curious villagers, Lin Fan and Liu Zixing finally arrived at Liu Zixing’s doorstep.

"Go inside, get an early night," Lin Fan said.

Liu Zixing responded with a soft "mm", hesitating for a moment, she wanted to invite Lin Fan inside for a while but felt it wouldn’t be appropriate. She was home alone, inviting Lin Fan inside might make the villagers think too much, assume they’re up to something.

Thinking of this, Liu Zixing was overwhelmed with embarrassment and quickly escaped inside.

Lin Fan then went home alone.

Suddenly, he was surrounded by his parents and sister.

"Little Fan, everyone in the village is saying that you and Zi Xin are together, is it true?" Mrs. Lin asked.

Shanshan said, "No way, brother, you just got back a few days and are suddenly with the nurse, this is too sudden."

Lin Fan was a bit flustered and said, "It’s not that sudden, I’ve always liked Zi Xin. Mom, now that I have a girlfriend, don’t bother finding matchmakers and waste money."

Mrs. Lin couldn’t stop laughing, "Alright, my son has a little wife now, why would I need a matchmaker?"

Father Lin nodded and said, "Zi Xin is a nice child, very pretty. Her father, Old Liu, is a doctor, didn’t expect this, we’ll become relatives with Old Liu."

They both expressed satisfaction with Liu Zixing as the daughter-in-law.

Shanshan pulled Lin Fan into the room, mysteriously said, "Brother, are you really with Sister Zi Xin? What about Sister Jinjin? Brother, you’re two-timing!"

Lin Fan quickly said, "Don’t talk nonsense, I’ll be honest with you but don’t tell Mom and Dad, Zi Xin and I are just pretending."

Shanshan blurted out, "Pretending... Brother, you kissed her."

Lin Fan said, "The kiss was real, but the pretending is also real."

Shanshan giggled and said, "Seems like you got quite the advantage with Sister Zi Xin, but you kissed her, won’t you turn it into a real relationship?"

Lin Fan retorted, "Stop gossiping."

The future, who knows, honestly Lin Fan kissed Liu Zixing tonight on an impulse, as for his feelings towards Liu Zixing, he couldn’t say clearly himself.

These past few days, he felt Liu Zixing was a nice girl, and at that moment, he just wanted to protect her.

If Liu Zixing were to be his girlfriend or even his little wife, it wouldn’t be so bad either.

Of course, Liu Zixing isn’t the only great girl around him. Chen Lingling, Su Jinjin, Liu Mengjie... oh, and Wei Yue’er, are all wonderful girls. It’s a pity he’s only one person, sometimes wishing he could have multiple selves to be with all these great girls.

Lin Fan sighed inwardly, is this thought a bit too greedy?

At He Chunyu’s house.

Late at night, He Chunyu and Dog No.2 were already asleep.

Wei Yue’er’s room was still lit up; she wasn’t asleep yet and was taking a call.

"I’m not going back to Hang City. I have my reasons. Since I was little, I’ve lived that lifestyle surrounded by luxury, and I find this little mountain village quite nice!" Wei Yue’er said.

"No, if you’re trying to set me up on blind dates, I’m even less inclined to go back. Brother, truth is, I already have someone in my heart."

"I won’t tell you who it is for now, but I can say that he is a doctor..."
