You were supposed to have a fake marriage with the diva, so how did you become her father?

Chapter 67 It's a pity not to ride a tricycle

"Siqi, the data is out." Liu Siqi's assistant looked at the computer screen and sighed, "The increase in 'The Wind Rises' is terrifying. At this rate, we may not be able to maintain our lead."

Liu Siqi was wearing headphones and listening to "The Wind Rises" on repeat.

In fact, although this battle of divas has received a lot of attention, now only she and Shen Yuege remain.

But Liu Siqi never considered Shen Yuege an enemy, or rather, she never considered anyone an enemy.

Her goal has always been to be the best version of herself. She loves music and hopes to have good music to sing.

These past few days, she's not only been listening to Shen Yuege's songs, but also to Xu Manlin and Weng Qingya's songs.

However, Shen Yuege's "The Wind Rises" is just too powerful this time.

Liu Siqi has listened to Shen Yuege's song "The Wind Rises" dozens of times.

"It's so beautiful." She took off her headphones, a hint of envy in her eyes. "This song should be the best hit of the year."

"Then let's..." the assistant hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but couldn't.

"It's alright, losing to such a great work isn't shameful," Liu Siqi smiled. "Besides, even though we lost to Shen Yuege, Lu Ran might not necessarily lose."

After saying that, Liu Siqi pointed to the music app rankings.

"Although Shen Yuege's 'The Wind Rises' is number one on the new song chart, the second-ranked 'Little Apple' and the third-ranked 'Rice Fragrance' are both works by Lu Ran."

When Lu Ran was mentioned, Liu Siqi's eyes softened considerably.

If it weren't for Lu Ran, she wouldn't even be qualified to participate in this competition for the title of Queen of Pop.

Even though she ultimately lost to Shen Yuege, she had no complaints and was filled with gratitude towards Lu Ran.

After thinking for a moment, Liu Siqi picked up her phone and sent Lu Ran a message: "Lu Ran, thank you for writing the song for me. Are you free tonight? I'd like to invite you to dinner to thank you for your help these past few days."

After sending the message, Liu Siqi felt her heart inexplicably race.

At this moment, she seemed to have developed a different feeling for Lu Ran.

Liu Siqi didn't know if it was because she was grateful to Lu Ran for writing her a song, or because she had been in frequent contact with Lu Ran in the past few days and had developed an admiration for his talent.

There are also rumors that Lu Ran is a relative, so the song production was all done under his name.

Liu Siqi had previously had her doubts.

But now Liu Siqi knows clearly that Lu Ran has real talent and ability.

When she discussed a song with Lu Ran before, she discovered that Lu Ran's appreciation and guidance on the song were very professional.

Liu Siqi has seen such excellent producers before. Some of the top producers in China have no fewer than thirty outstanding songs.

However, most of those producers only begin to emerge in their thirties, and by the time they become top producers, they are mostly over fifty years old.

Lu Ran is only twenty-three years old, the same age as her younger brother Liu Jun.

Liu Siqi believes that given time, Lu Ran will definitely become another top producer.

Considering the future development of their relationship, Liu Siqi felt that inviting Lu Ran to dinner was not excessive at all.

But a few minutes later, Lu Ran replied, "I have something to do tonight, let's do it another day."

Liu Siqi was a little disappointed, but still replied, "Okay, you go ahead and do your work."

...

Lu Ran refused Liu Siqi's offer not because he didn't want to go, but because he did have a mission that night.

Around noon, while Lu Ran was still thinking about what to cook for dinner, Shen Yuege suddenly sent him a message saying that she planned to cook crabs for dinner.

Although Lu Ran didn't know how Shen Yuege mustered the courage to cook again after the last cooking incident, he didn't intend to undermine her confidence.

Especially after seeing the photos taken by Shen Yuege, showing the hairy crabs tightly bound in their shells, Lu Ran felt that the same thing that happened last time would not happen again.

After all, steaming crabs only requires placing the crabs on the steamer.

But just before Liu Siqi sent the message, Shen Yuege called first.

"Hey, Lu Ran, come back quickly, the crabs have all run inside the house."

On the other end of the phone was Shen Yuege's anxious and frightened voice.

Although I really didn't want to leave early, the "sugar daddy" was still of higher status than the meaningless "perfect attendance" requirement.

Lu Ran sped back to the villa.

As soon as I entered, I saw Shen Yuege standing hurriedly on a chair, while crabs were crawling all over the floor of the living room and kitchen.

Seeing that it was Lu Ran who opened the door, Shen Yuege's tense heart finally relaxed a little.

After the crabs escaped, she was so frightened that she jumped onto the stool and hasn't been able to continue working.

"Lu Ran, quick, catch them!"

Shen Yuege stood on a chair, remotely directing Lu Ran.

Seeing the room full of crabs, Lu Ran quickly grabbed one and threw it into the bucket.

"There, there's another one." Shen Yuege pointed to another one that was already crawling into the corner and called out.

Following Shen Yuege's instructions, Lu Ran captured all the crabs from the nooks and crannies and placed them in their positions.

"Alright, there are no more crabs left. You can come down now." Lu Ran put down the bucket and closed the lid.

"My...my legs are numb, I can't get down." Shen Yuege stood on the chair, somewhat embarrassed.

After all, girls are naturally afraid of these little things that run around, and even many boys are afraid of them.

However, Lu Ran was already quite adept at using these ingredients because he cooked frequently.

Shen Yuege was still standing on the chair with trembling legs.

Lu Ran walked over, put his arm around Shen Yuege's legs, and picked her up.

"Ah!" Startled by Lu Ran's sudden hug, Shen Yuege lost her balance and quickly grabbed Lu Ran's shoulder.

For a moment, their posture was extremely ambiguous.

At first, Lu Ran just wanted to get Shen Yuege down as quickly as possible and didn't think much about it.

But as Shen Yuege put her arm around his shoulder, Lu Ran suddenly felt that this action was indeed somewhat inappropriate.

Especially... Shen Yuege's beautiful legs were still being held by her, and the tight skin and smooth touch made Lu Ran reluctant to let go.

It's not that Lu Ran is a leg fetishist, but with such a long-legged beauty in your arms, you wouldn't want to let go.

"Hurry up and put me down." Shen Yuege saw that Lu Ran was holding her and seemed a little dazed, so she quickly reminded him.

"Oh, I'll put it down now." Hearing Shen Yuege's voice, Lu Ran quickly came back to his senses. "I was thinking about something and forgot."

Hearing Lu Ran's lame reason, Shen Yuege couldn't help but blush.

She really thought she hadn't noticed Lu Ran's obviously restless little hands and those little movements on her legs.

I never imagined you were like this, Lu Ran.

Although Shen Yuege thought this way, she didn't feel any resistance at all.

She even felt very safe being held by Lu Ran just now.

Perhaps it's really nice to have a man in your family whom you can rely on.

Although Lu Ran's little hands were moving around a bit, it wasn't intentional.

It's mainly Shen Yuege's legs that feel so good to the touch.

How come I never noticed before that Shen Yuege's legs are so shapely?

With legs that are so beautiful, it's such a waste that they don't wear black... or ride a tricycle.
