Pick Up a Killer as Girlfriend

Chapter 177 Ren Ling


Ren Ling. The name sounds lovely. Those big eyes of hers feel just as lively as her name suggests.

They say good things come in small packages. Don't be fooled by this girl's height; she's quite formidable in the chest department. Take a couple of steps quickly, and those twin peaks of hers seem to sway along.

"Ren Ling, right? I originally intended to find someone to share rent with, but I was planning on finding a male roommate, never thought of..."

"Your rental ad never specified gender, though. If you didn't write it down, that's your fault. Since you didn't, I can come and try to rent with you." Ren Ling chattered away.

"Uh, but... a man and a woman living together, it always feels a bit inconvenient." Xiaofan said, troubled.

"I don't mind, so why should you, a grown man, care?" Ren Ling said as she began placing her suitcase in the room she chose for herself. Then she took out her phone: "Hello, I've found a place, send my belongings over, the address is..."

And just like that, before Xiaofan could even nod his agreement, this girl had already decided to move in.

By the time Xiaofan regained his senses, it was too late to refuse.

What is up with this girl? Isn't she worried I might be a bad guy? A lone man and a lone woman living in one place—if our friend Ye Xiaofan went crazy in the dead of night, there'd be nowhere to run!

"Hey, Ye Xiaofan. Is this what you usually eat?"

Xiaofan's delivery was also delivered. Since she wanted to live here, let her be. If he needed to leave, he could always move out himself. Xiaofan quietly ate his fast food. He still had things to deal with later on. But who would've thought this girl would come over to his table and start pointing and commenting.

"Living alone, of course, you just eat whatever, you know?" Xiaofan said, shoveling big bites into his mouth.

People from Huaxia growing up naturally eat rice. Those fancy Western dishes, Japanese cuisines, or Korean BBQs are just occasional treats. For filling your stomach, you still rely on these few ounces of rice.

"Wait, how do you know my name?" As he ate, Xiaofan started feeling uneasy.

"Saw you on TV. Do you have a girlfriend?" Ren Ling sat beside him, staring directly into his eyes.

"Cough, cough..." Xiaofan, feeling a bit flustered from her gaze, said: "Why are you asking this?"

"If you don't have a girlfriend, would you mind having one? Like me," Ren Ling said bluntly.

"Uh? Don't joke around, you're still underage." Xiaofan laughed at Ren Ling's baby face.

"I'm an adult, almost twenty this year." Ren Ling said seriously.

"Nonsense..." Xiaofan looked at Ren Ling disbelievingly. Twenty years old? Lying to ghosts, it must be. Look at the height, that baby face. Apart from the chest that looks like it's twenty, she'd pass for a fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl.

"Here's my ID card, here's my student ID." Ren Ling immediately took out her ID and student ID from her bag behind her.

A sophomore at Capital University's college. Twenty years old, Ren Ling. Not a shred of fakery.

"How are you aging backward?" Xiaofan asked, thoroughly unsettled after checking.

"Isn't it good? You guys generally like this kind of girl, right? That day after your finals, when you were lying on that woman's lap, was that your girlfriend?" Ren Ling continued to ask.

"Her? Chasing, actually..." Xiaofan wasn't sure if that was the right answer.

"Oh, then would you mind changing girlfriends? I think I'm pretty nice. Never growing up, but having a big chest. Staying like this in my thirties or forties, isn't that great?" Once again, Ren Ling openly expressed her admiration for Xiaofan.

"Cough, cough. Are you my fan? You didn't deliberately find me just to move in, did you?" It was a sudden thought Xiaofan had, given how odd this girl seemed.

Even if she knows he won the martial arts competition, coming in and asking if he likes her seems a bit too clear in her intentions, no?

"By the looks of it, you don't want to change girlfriends, so do you mind having an extra girlfriend? Like me? They say I'm very cute," Ren Ling continued, staring intently at Xiaofan.

The strangest thing is that from under such a cute appearance, the words this girl said carried no emotion.

"Why do you have to be my girlfriend?" Xiaofan asked directly.

"Because you're impressive. Many people like you, so being your girlfriend must be very safe. Do you like me?" Ren Ling asked again.

"No, just imagining being with you makes me feel guilty. The guilt of luring underaged girls. Besides, you know nothing about me; rushing to be my girlfriend seems a little too hasty." Xiaofan smiled bitterly.

"You're a good person. You saved me." Ren Ling said softly.

"Hmm? When?"

"About two months ago, in a small alley near the amusement center. You got beaten up by someone."

Turns out, back then, Xiaofan tried to be a hero to save a damsel in distress but ended up being knocked down by the opposing brawny man, and the person he saved was Ren Ling right in front of him.

At that time, Xiaofan didn't catch a clear view of Ren Ling's appearance, only remembering a short-statured girl. Unexpectedly, today that girl was the one who came knocking. And technically, he should be calling this girl in front of him: senior.

"No way? That girl was you?" Xiaofan finally remembered.

"Mm-hmm."

"Why were they trying to grab you? Did you escape afterwards?" Xiaofan asked further.

"No, I got caught shortly after leaving the alley. They were sent by my grandma to fetch me back. I just didn't want to stay at home, so I snuck out." Ren Ling answered truthfully.

"And this time? Did you sneak out again? You're twenty years old, and your family still restricts your freedom?" Xiaofan asked, puzzled.

"Mm-hmm, grandma says I'm the only descendant in the family, so all my actions and words must be strictly controlled. But this time, my family agreed when I came out. They said I was twenty and should find a boyfriend. And besides, I think you're quite nice." Who knows if Ren Ling is naive, adorable, childish, or just missing a few screws?

No matter how you see it, Ren Ling's approach to finding a boyfriend is way too hasty.

"I can't help you with finding a boyfriend; you should look for someone else. If you don't mind, you can leave now; I don't plan to rent this place anymore." Xiaofan had no intention of attracting more attention. Even if the 'little sister' before him was indeed adorable.

"No, I'm staying here. Give me some time, and maybe you'll find me quite outstanding and start liking me." Ren Ling said, blinking her eyes, genuinely addressing Xiaofan.
