He Is Warmer Than Time Chapter 54

Chapter 54: Focusing on Gu Jinghang
At this time, Wen Huihui opened the door. Song Ran, who was lying on her bed, reading “The Peony Pavilion,” frowned unconsciously. Her voice sounded cold and aloof. In a lukewarm tone, she asked Wen Huihui, “Don’t you know how to knock?”
All along, she did not want to fall out with Wen Huihui as she was afraid others might notice that she had changed too much. Hence, she had to continue to be friends with Wen Huihui.
However, there was no one other than her and Wen Huihui in the room. Hence, she was feeling too lazy to act like a good friend.
Wen Huihui immediately felt like she was in dangerous waters with Song Ran. With an embarrassed look, she approached Song Ran slowly. “Given our relationship, I never had to knock on your door when I came into your room. Ran, are you trying to distance yourself from me?”
Song Ran peered at the opened door and made sure no one was around before she started speaking. “That was in the past. After all, I have a boyfriend now. What if Team Leader Gu decided to stay over my house? What if we’re doing something that we don’t want others to know? If you barge in just like this, wouldn’t it present an awkward situation?”
“Ran, we haven’t been getting along too well lately. Did I do something wrong and make you unhappy? If I did something wrong, just tell me so that I can explain myself to you.”
Wen Huihui fixed her wary eyes on Song Ran, who was holding on to the opera script. Her heart was racing as she was trying to test Song Ran. Song Ran was not a composed person. If Gu Jinghang did mention to her about what happened last night, Song Ran would definitely question her.
Without any emotion, Song Ran peered at her as she flipped a page with her finger. Slowly, she said, “Wen Huihui, have you wronged me recently?”
Wen Huihui’s facial muscle twitched as she was extremely nervous. She tried forcing a smile, but the corners of her lips quivered. “Haha… haha… How could I harbor ill will towards you?”
Song Ran focused on the opera script as she flipped another page. She pursed her lips and said, “Then why do you keep asking me if I’m distancing myself from you? I don’t feel like that is so. So why are you so suspicious?”
Wen Huihui felt slightly more at ease. No matter how much Song Ran changed, she could never keep it a secret that she knew that Wen Huihui had betrayed her by telling Gu Jinghang about Yao Xifeng. Since Song Ran did not mention this, it meant that she had no idea.
Luckily, Gu Jinghang had sealed lips, and he was not a big mouth who loved to gossip.
Wen Huihui was scaring herself and she broke into a cold sweat. She struggled to swallow her saliva and smile…
“Perhaps I care too much about our friendship. I’m always afraid that you might have a new friend who has sowed discord behind my back and that you will stop hanging out with me.”
Song Ran squeezed a slightly teasing and contemptuous smile at the corner of her lips. Haha, Wen Huihui. You’re indeed the first drama queen in history!
Song Ran reached and gently patted Wen Huihui’s shoulder. In a joking tone, she said, “Besties are forever while men don’t last. We share a strong bond, and no one can easily sow discord between us. But if you’re thinking of laying your hands on my man, I won’t mind discarding our friendship.”
Wen Huihui was scared out of her wits. Her face immediately turned ashen. She was aghast. The look in Song Ran’s eyes, the tone she used, and the way she squeezed her shoulder just now, seemed like a warning to her.
Could she, the missy who was ignorant of worldly affairs, smell something fishy? Did she feign ignorance in the past? Could she have found out about everything?
