Starting with taking in female college students

"Look what you've done! How could you just let him go like that? You can't even handle such a small thing, you've wasted all the grapes I bought!"

After Chen Rang left, Yu Xiulan vented her anger on Yang De.

"How is that wasteful? Lily likes to eat this too, doesn't she? It's a bit expensive, but it's okay to eat it once in a while, right?"

Yang De rubbed his hands awkwardly, then glanced at his daughter on the sofa beside him, eating grapes and watching TV. After a moment's thought, he said softly, "Lily, do you really have to go to that Tiansheng Group?"

"It's not that I absolutely have to go! It's just that when this opportunity is presented to me, only a fool would let it slip away!"

Yang Lili swallowed the grape skins along with the grapes, then looked up at her father and said, "Dad! You need to know how hard it is to make money these days! If I could get into Tiansheng Group, regardless of the salary, right? At least my status would be different! Once I'm in, I'll find a way to get on good terms with that Miss Ni; with her influence, I'll climb the ladder step by step! By then, who will dare to laugh at me? You used to ignore me, but in the future, you'll be begging for my attention!"

Yang Lili's eyes lit up when she thought of any wonderful places. She popped two more grapes into her mouth, then clung to her mother's arm and started to act coquettishly.

"Mom, you have to help me!"

"How can I help? Didn't you say you wanted to get on good terms with that Miss Ni? Then go yourself! Zhang Jun also said that Miss Ni goes to Chen Rang's place every day; if you're a little more diligent, you can run into her a few times, right?"

Yu Xiulan rolled her eyes. Chen Rang's disrespect still bothered her.

She felt that her request was not excessive, because for the young lady of a prestigious corporation, wouldn't it be easy to arrange for her to be an idle person? Which big company doesn't have relatives and friends who just collect salaries? What difference would it make if they had one more daughter?

However, since it's known that Miss Ni frequently visits Chen Rang's clinic, the rest is actually quite simple. With her daughter's obedient and sweet-talking abilities, wouldn't it be a piece of cake to coax a naive young lady like her?

Why would we need to ask that brat from the Chen family for help?

Yu Xiulan made a decision.

However, Yang Lili was used to being pampered and had no intention of going out. Most importantly, she only wanted to enjoy the thrill of being hired by a company and receiving a high salary, but she had no intention of putting in any work; this also included building up interpersonal relationships in the early stages.

So don't be fooled by Yang Lili's arrogant words to her father; when it comes to actually trying to please others, she would never do it.

"dad!"

"Old Yang, you have to talk to Chen Rang about this! We've been neighbors for so many years, and he won't even help with something this small? Forget it, I'll go send a message to his mother!"

"Okay then, I'll wait a bit..."

The three members of the family continued their discussion.

Chen Rang was naturally unaware of what happened after he left. He only felt that the two women in the Yang family had truly taken shamelessness and wild imagination to the extreme.

They haven't even established any relationship yet, and they're already thinking about taking advantage of others.

Even before they know you, you're already thinking about becoming a parasite in their company.

Just outrageous!

To be honest, in Chen Rang's opinion, if Yang Lili had just sincerely wanted to find a stable job, he would have been more willing to help her out of respect for Uncle Yang.

But Yang Lili just didn't seem to want to do any work from beginning to end!

That's hilarious.

Who would help with this kind of favor?

Chen Rangdu still has to work hard every day, without even considering taking advantage of anyone! You, a complete stranger, how dare you ask for this and that?

Chen Rang thought dismissively and simply put the Yang family's affairs out of his mind.

He owed the Yang family nothing, so refusing to "help" was perfectly justified.

But soon, he encountered another very frustrating problem.

When he returned to the clinic after leaving the Yang family, he couldn't help but roll his eyes when he saw that familiar figure standing at the door from afar.

That feeling of "speak of the devil and he appears," which brings a mix of surprise and helplessness, is quite a headache.

But to be honest, Ni Youlin is beautiful, well-behaved, obedient, and dependent; any man would feel a little proud to be clung to by her so tightly.

The thought that she was actually the illegitimate daughter of the owner of the Tiansheng Group in Sarawak added a strange feeling to his heart. It wasn't that he coveted anything, but the thought that the Yang family treated her like a god of wealth, while she acted like a little kitten in front of him, made him secretly pleased.

"Why are you back so soon?"

Chen Rang walked over and greeted him.

He thought Ni Youlin would stay in Yanling Village for a few more days, after all, it was her hometown, and her grandfather had just been buried.

So she came so early, could it be that she was once again subjected to sarcastic remarks from the villagers?

Thinking about that old lady, Chen Rang felt it wasn't impossible.

That old woman who slapped her lips so hard truly embodied the phrase "stubborn on the outside but soft on the inside." If she had treated Ni Youlin even slightly better, Ni Youlin wouldn't have run back in less than three days, as if fleeing a wolf's den.

"There's no food left at home."

Ni Youlin spoke up honestly.

"..."

This explanation left Chen Rang speechless.

Especially when he heard a gurgling sound coming from Ni Youlin's stomach, Chen Rang couldn't help but laugh.

"How long has it been since you last ate?"

"All day today."

"Are you a pig? Why don't you find somewhere to fill your stomach instead of just standing here daydreaming?"

Chen Rang muttered a curse under his breath, clearly annoyed.

Ni Youlin's expression remained unchanged, as if she were used to it. Her calm demeanor gave Chen Rang a headache, making him wonder if this girl had become jaded from being scolded so much that she didn't show any change in expression at all after being criticized?

I'm hungry.

Ni Youlin stared intently at Chen Rang and reiterated her point once again.

It seems that after what happened the night before last, her trust in Chen Rang has increased by two levels. Just by looking at her words, you can tell that her communication with Chen Rang is now significantly more familiar than with her communication with others.

In some ways, Chen Rang might be her only friend in this world.

"What would you like to eat?"

Chen Rang compromised.

It's not that I can't refuse, it's just a feeling... If I don't help her, she might keep going hungry until she gets back to her dorm.

"have no idea."

Ni Youlin shook her head honestly, having never considered this possibility. She always ate whatever was available and wouldn't eat anything if there wasn't any, rarely having the opportunity to make a choice.

"Want a hamburger?"

Chen Rang considered it for a while, then decided he wasn't too keen on finding Chinese food. Mainly, he wasn't sure about this guy's eating habits or preferences for salty or sweet flavors, and fast food was the most convenient and hassle-free option.

As soon as he said those words, Ni Youlin's eyes lit up, as if they were about to glow.

"Never tried it before?"

Chen Rang was puzzled, not understanding why a mere hamburger could excite her so much. Even if she was just a neglected illegitimate daughter of a wealthy family, she couldn't possibly be deprived of anything materially, could she? Besides, couldn't she buy it herself?

"I've eaten it! I like it! But I'm alone, so I don't dare to go buy it."

Ni Youlin answered honestly.

After hearing this, Chen Rang couldn't say anything more.

He already had a fairly good understanding of the situation regarding Ni Youlin's mother. However, regarding her father, there was only one guess from Mr. Ni of Tiansheng Group, and that wasn't necessarily accurate.

Even Chen himself wasn't aware of this, so he highly doubted how the Yang family knew. It couldn't be that just because the surname Ni was uncommon, and there happened to be a bigwig in the Tiansheng Group with the surname Ni, they were directly paired up, could it?

The two were walking towards the hamburger shop not far across the street.

Ni Youlin came empty-handed, and of course, she returned to Yanling Village empty-handed that night as well. Chen Rang initially thought she would bring her grandfather's memorial tablet, but then he thought it was a bit absurd to bring that to school, so he stopped asking.

"I plan to buy a house nearby."

While waiting for the hamburger to be ready, Ni Youlin suddenly said something unexpected.

"Buy? Didn't you say you were renting?"

Chen Rang couldn't help but ask.

He always felt that the values ​​of wealthy people were different from those of ordinary people. Just a few days ago, he was saying he wanted to rent a place nearby, so how come he's talking about buying it right now?

"purchase!"

Ni Youlin reiterated this point.

This idea seemed to have been lingering in her mind for a long time, so much so that she rarely showed a determined expression, as if she had made up her mind completely.

"Alright then, I'll try to find one for you when I have the chance. But the buildings around here are all quite old, so it might be a bit difficult to find one with a good layout and nice renovations."

Chen Rang didn't try to persuade her; he simply took the hamburger and handed it to her.
