It was Friday. Every student felt thrilled to hear the after school bell rang.
An Ran carried her school bag on her back and walked to the gate. She had just finished organizing her grandma’s funeral and looked terribly tired.
A chubby girl scuttled to her from behind her and patted her shoulder. “An Ran, are you alright?”
An Ran didn’t turn back. She could tell it was her best friend Liu Weiwei from her voice. She replied quietly, “Yes.”
Liu Weiwei accompanied her silently. Her parents were white-collars and comparatively wealthy. After a walk, she said to An Ran softly, “If you need anything, just tell me.”
An Ran knew what she meant for and smiled. “Weiwei, I want to take a part-time job.”
“We have the college entrance examination soon. You don’t have time for that.” Liu Weiwei was surprised. “You are doing great. Don’t let it get in your college application.”
“What if I got admitted? It would only be an extra burden for my mom.” An Ran was upset.
“But An Ran…” Liu Weiwei was interrupted by a polite call. “Miss An.”
They looked over and saw a middle-aged man in a suit. He stood beside a white BMW, smiling and looking at An Ran.
An Ran was startled. He was the driver at Ye Chengwei’s Villa, Zhang. It was him who sent her to the hospital that day.
Ye Chengwei didn’t contact her in the past half-month. She was buried in the grief of losing her grandma and almost forgot that she had become his mistress.
An Ran panicked when she saw Zhang. Parking a million-dollar car in front of her school gate was too much.
“An Ran, is he calling for you?” Liu Weiwei asked for confirmation.
An Ran flushed immediately. She told her “I’ll explain to you later” and rushed to the BMW. Zhang opened the door respectfully for her. And An Ran went inside quickly.
She feared that if she delayed for one more second, everyone would find out what she was up to.
“Young Master is waiting for you in the villa.” Zhang smiled and said to her in the car.
“Ok. Start the car, quickly.” An Ran said in a hurry.
Zhang started the car immediately. An Ran turned over and saw Liu Weiwei stand there watching her leave at a loss.
An Ran took out her old phone and called Liu Weiwei.
The second the call got through, Liu Weiwei asked with surprise, “An Ran, what are you doing?”
“Weiwei, it’s complicated.” An Ran took a breath and added in a low voice. “Remember, if my mom or An Ze asks about me, just tell them I’m with you tonight at your house.”
“An Ran…”
“I’ll explain it to you on Monday.”
“Okay.” Liu Weiwei was very kind and didn’t go on asking her.
An Ran hung up and sighed. She felt sad. Outside of the car window, young boys and girls in uniforms were going home in delight.
How happy and free they were!
BMW went to the suburbs steadily. The setting sun painted the sky with pretty and bright colors.
The car arrived at the underground garage of the villa. An Ran was going to open the door but Zhang stopped her. “Let me, Miss An.”
It was real that drivers opened doors for their bosses as it was shown on television.
Sister Rong had prepared slippers for her in the living room on the first floor. And she put her old shoes orderly in the closet like last time.
“Miss An, Young Master is working in the study. Would you like to wait for him in the living room or back in your room?” Sister Rong always smiled as she spoke.
