Li Changlin told Lin Ruonan everything that had happened that day in one breath. Although he didn’t mean to suggest that Lin Ruonan should continue to spend money, there was also a reminder for Lin Ruonan to be cautious.
After all, for anyone, one must never only look at appearances.
If one only looks at the surface, it’s very possible to be deceived by it.
Like Li Changlin, Lin Ruonan had also only graduated a few months ago and probably had virtually no social experience. Naturally, Li Changlin did not want Lin Ruonan to be taken advantage of or cheated.
It was just on the internet, so it didn’t really matter.
If it were in real life, even Li Changlin might be fooled by Su Yan before recognizing her true self.
"I understand," Lin Ruonan nodded somberly, feeling waves of discomfort inside.
She completely trusted Li Changlin’s words, knowing he had no reason to deceive her.
That Su Yan was such a woman was something Lin Ruonan had never imagined.
However, thinking back on how Su Yan had cursed Li Changlin in the live stream, it was clear that this woman was definitely not a simple character.
Yet, Lin Ruonan would rather remain innocent and not harbor too much suspicion in her heart.
Therefore, once she felt pity, she lost the interest to continue toying with Su Yan.
"Does it feel very uncomfortable?" Li Changlin could certainly understand Lin Ruonan’s feelings, and he chuckled lightly, "This is the internet, and thankfully there’s a camera involved, otherwise, we probably wouldn’t even know if the person on the other end is male or female. So you shouldn’t dwell on it too much."
"I don’t want to play anymore." Lin Ruonan sighed lightly and shook her head, then she logged out of Su Yan’s livestream and closed the Endless live-stream page.
"Why don’t you go look for Qian Ziwei? There’s still about twenty minutes left. We’ll play until six and then go down for dinner," said Li Changlin, nodding. Brother Grape was having a blast playing, so naturally, he wanted to keep Brother Grape company for a while.
Li Changlin had to leave earlier to repair the Jade Pendant, which was the only reason he had excused himself.
But now that he had time, as the host, it wouldn’t be good to neglect Brother Grape anymore.
No matter what, Brother Grape had spent so much money on him, so it was only right for Li Changlin, out of both sentiment and etiquette, not to ignore Brother Grape’s feelings.
"What, Miss Lin can’t bear it?" Xiaobudian Under the Grapevine had clearly heard the conversation between Li Changlin and Lin Ruonan, so he turned around with a smile and said.
"I’m fine, I’m just not used to this kind of atmosphere," Lin Ruonan said as she got up and put her phone into her pocket, then awkwardly smiled, "Brother Grape, I’m sorry about what I said earlier. Please don’t hold it against me."
"Not at all, you must be joking, Miss Lin. As Changlin’s girlfriend, you are naturally my little sister. How could I possibly resent my little sister?" Brother Grape laughed heartily. With their age difference, how could he bear a grudge against a young girl like her?
"Thank you, Brother Grape." At this moment, Lin Ruonan had calmed down again and once more earnestly apologized to Xiaobudian Under the Grapevine; then she greeted Li Changlin and left the room.
"Changlin, your girlfriend is a genuine person!" As soon as Lin Ruonan left, Xiaobudian Under the Grapevine nodded approvingly, "Miss Lin has a pure heart without schemes; she’s a very innocent girl. You must cherish her!"
"Brother Grape, Ruonan is not my girlfriend yet," said Li Changlin with an embarrassed smile, temporarily at a loss for words to describe his relationship with Lin Ruonan.
"Oh, I remember now," said Xiaobudian Under the Grapevine, suddenly recalling something upon Li Changlin’s words. "I remember you mentioning a few days ago that you had gone through a breakup, and it seems like you haven’t started a new relationship yet!"
"I’m a bit worried too, since Ruonan really is a good girl," Li Changlin nodded earnestly.
Actually, to say that Lin Ruonan was just a good girl was an understatement; if it were that simple, Li Changlin would have confessed to her a long time ago, even if it meant losing face.
Speaking of which, Li Changlin was indeed quite worried these days.
What happened a few days ago at Sky Horse Bar made Li Changlin suspect that Lin Ruonan’s background was not simple, which led to a feeling of inferiority in his heart.
If it had been Li Changlin in the past, he probably wouldn’t have had so many concerns.
But now, after breaking up with Xu Xin, Li Changlin had matured a lot.
Based on today’s events at the antique market, Li Changlin knew that Lin Ruonan still had affection for him, which was something he no longer doubted.
However, this did not bring any greater joy to Li Changlin’s heart.
After all, Li Changlin did not yet know what position Lin Ruonan’s identity truly held, nor whether she would be willing to give up everything to be with him.
"Maybe, I could try the Flirting Potion!" For some reason, this thought suddenly flashed through Li Changlin’s mind.
According to Elder Jiang, once a woman takes the Flirting Potion, she will consider the first man she sees as her favorite, and she will also reveal secrets deep in her heart. Her behavior will be beyond her control, a complete loss of rationality.
Once this thought arose, it was simply unstoppable.
Li Changlin felt a surge of excitement, feeling he indeed should test Lin Ruonan.
Of course, using the Flirting Potion wasn’t because Li Changlin wanted to take advantage of Lin Ruonan in a sleazy way.
Although the Flirting Potion could make one lose their rationality, it wouldn’t affect the user, so Li Changlin could fully respond before Lin Ruonan became completely bewildered.
"Alright, let’s do this!" Soon, Li Changlin made up his mind.
He was very eager to find out what place he held in Lin Ruonan’s heart.
If Lin Ruonan were truly willing to give up everything for him, then what was there for Li Changlin to fear!
"Changlin, don’t space out. Now watch how I play with this Su Yan," Xiaobudian Under the Grapevine’s voice suddenly reached his ears just as Li Changlin was lost in thought.
Li Changlin’s body jolted, snapping back to reality, and he quickly lowered his head to look at his smartphone screen.
By this time, Su Yan’s camera had obviously been adjusted slightly, and on the computer desk, there was both a plate and a cup.
The plate was ceramic, the kind used for serving food. As for the cup, it was a very ordinary plastic one, but inside it was filled with a cup of water.
