Chapter 76: Chapter 76 When will Teacher Xiaoluo dance for me?

```

Jealousy struck without warning.

Luo Yanran was stunned. She looked at Xie Xiao, saw the smile on his face, knew he was joking, but still played along and asked, "Then how should I coax you?"

Xie Xiao smiled even more joyfully. He had figured out that with Miss Luo as his teacher, he really could go wild searching for her limits.

Or more accurately put, it seemed she had no limits where he was concerned.

"When will Miss Luo dance for me?" The heart is always greedy; Xie Xiao still remembered the dance he missed.

Luo Yanran glanced at him and started walking forward. "Didn't you say you didn't do too well on the exam? When you reach the rank we agreed on, I'll dance for you."

Xie Xiao sighed with an 'ai', having miscalculated; he had thought Miss Luo would agree.

"Then I'll work harder next time..."

In the end, the two of them couldn't have dinner together.

Because Xie Xiao had to go to the night market to help Lin Yu with his streaming work.

On top of that, he had been bothered by a video he hadn't been able to edit to his satisfaction.

Furthermore, Luo Yanran had received an emergency call from Liu Ou, which seemed urgent.

She even rejected Xie Xiao's offer to drive her, opting to take a cab instead.

Watching Luo Yanran get into the car and leave, Xie Xiao frowned slightly.

When Luo Yanran received the call from Liu Ou, her expression was less than positive.

After a moment's hesitation, Xie Xiao still sent a message to Lin Yu.

Lin Yu was busy preparing ingredients with his grandmother and didn't notice his phone buzz at first.

Then, after his phone buzzed a couple more times, he washed his hands and picked it up.

After only a few glances, he couldn't help but frown.

Looking at his grandmother, who was still nearby, he called Xie Xiao back and slowly walked out.

The old lady looked up at his retreating figure and slowly averted her gaze.

It couldn't be helped; the child was grown and had his own ideas.

Xie Xiao picked up quickly on the other end.

Lin Yu bluntly asked, "What happened?"

"If I knew what happened, I wouldn't be asking you, right?" Xie Xiao replied with a mix of helplessness and concern, "Ranran just got a call from Liu Ou, then rushed off to her place in a cab. I've got a feeling something's up, but she wouldn't let me follow her. Go hang around their neighborhood and 'bump into her'; maybe you can follow her and find out what's going on."

Xie Xiao said, "If anything happens, call me. I don't feel entirely at ease about the two girls."

But since his girlfriend had clearly refused to let him follow, Xie Xiao thought it would be insensitive to insist on going.

So he had no choice but to turn to Lin Yu.

"I'll come to your place now, and we can improve the video together later. I have to go help my grandma first, and then you can go take a look," Xie Xiao suggested.

Lin Yu agreed without hesitation, "Okay, can I still make it if I go now?"

"Yes, you can. Her car didn't leave long ago," Xie Xiao checked the time. "It takes about fifteen minutes from here without traffic."

Lin Yu quickly hung up after confirming.

Xie Xiao boarded the subway, exhaling slowly.

If it had been anything else, he certainly wouldn't have conspired to create a 'chance encounter'.

It felt as if he didn't trust Luo Yanran, yet her complexion earlier was terrible.

He had asked her, but she was unwilling to discuss it, probably because it involved Liu Ou and wasn't convenient to talk about.

But Xie Xiao couldn't help but feel worried, which is why he contacted Lin Yu.

At least to make sure everything was really okay...

He glanced at the subway station sign.

It seemed his girlfriend didn't quite trust him, indicating he needed to try harder.

Actually, Luo Yanran didn't distrust Xie Xiao; it was just that this was Liu Ou's issue.

Time was tight, and she truly didn't know how to start explaining it.

Luo Yanran sent a message to Liu Ou on her phone, confirming that he was okay.

Liu Ou replied quickly, even finding the time to caution her, "No rush, take your time getting here. The fight's not over yet, I'm in my room."

```

Luo Yanran looked at the message, her heart sour.

Liu Ou seemed strong and optimistic, but her family was quite complicated.

Both her parents were in politics—no, not the ordinary civil servant kind.

However, their relationship was bad; they virtually never appeared at home together.

Whenever they did, it almost always turned into an argument or a fight.

But they couldn't divorce, as it would affect their careers.

Liu Ou had grown up in this kind of environment.

The first time Luo Yanran met Liu Ou was back in elementary school.

She had then raced out of her house during one of her parents' fights and had been accidentally pushed over.

She hit her head, so she was sent to the hospital.

But she sneaked out and met Luo Yanran in the park, who was with her grandmother.

With her head wrapped in gauze, she said to Luo Yanran, "Wow, you're even prettier than my doll..."

Luo Yanran snapped back to reality from her memories, blinked, and wondered how anyone could grow up in that kind of environment and still be so optimistic.

Liu Ou was like a miracle.

That's why, when she found out she was repeating her senior year, she didn't hesitate to repeat it with her.

When she knew she was being bullied, she transferred from the affiliated school and said, "I want to see who dares to bully you!"

This wonderful Liu Ou, however, would call her with a tired and fragile voice while her parents fought outside, saying, "Luoluo, I want to get out. Please come pick me up."

...

As soon as Luo Yanran got out of the car, she saw Lin Yu standing at the entrance of the housing complex.

She was taken aback, glancing around out of habit before remembering that she had just parted ways with Xie Xiao.

Lin Yu walked over upon seeing her, "Luo Senior, what a coincidence."

His voice was somewhat dry; Luo Yanran felt something was odd.

But she didn't have time to think it over and nodded, "Quite a coincidence. I have something with Hai Ou, I'll go in first."

"Ah, that's even more of a coincidence. I have something to discuss with Liu Ou too, let's go in together," Lin Yu said.

Luo Yanran was worried about Liu Ou but felt awkward bringing Lin Yu along.

Just then, Lin Yu told a lie, "We agreed to meet now, but she hasn't come out. I'm a bit worried. I want to go up and check on her."

Luo Yanran thought, did Liu Ou want to go out because she had arranged with Lin Yu?

Indeed anxious, she hesitated for only a second before saying, "Then let's go up together."

With hurried steps, they went inside.

Lin Yu let out a slight sigh of relief; he really wasn't good at lying.

But seeing Luo Yanran so anxious, his heart also lifted.

Xie Xiao was right; something really was wrong with Liu Ou.

The security guard at the entrance recognized Luo Yanran, so the registration process was speedy.

Luo Yanran skillfully passed through the complex's garden and directly went up to the eighth floor of building eight. S~eaʀᴄh the ηovёlFire .net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

That number was quite lucky, Lin Yu thought.

There are two households per floor; the elevator door opened right in front of Liu Ou's home.

Even through the door, they could hear the sound of objects being smashed inside.

Lin Yu's complexion turned grim.

He looked at Luo Yanran, "What's going on?"

His first thought was domestic violence.

Was Liu Ou a victim of it?

Luo Yanran gave him a look and made a quieting gesture with her finger, then she pressed the doorbell.

The noise inside ceased the moment the doorbell rang.
