The days that followed Mo Roulan’s ’Yes’ to their official dating were the sweetest He Jian had in his whole life.
He just couldn’t bear to leave her alone.
And the best thing was that she didn’t push him away.
She let him kiss her. She let him hug her,
She would have a smile on her lips when she was with him.
She was everything he had ever wanted.
He Zhuang warned him again.
"You can date her...but don’t fall for her so much, Jian."
His father had said. He could understand his father’s fears. Even he had his own fears.
But when it ca to Mo Roulan, all his fear vanished.
He had this belief...that she would never hurt him. She could never do so.
She was not selfish...like his mother.
His father loved his mother a lot. His grandmother used to say. But his mother was the reason today his father no longer believed in love.
Mo Roulan would never do sothing like that to him.
He wanted to take Mo Roulan to see his family like other boys did while dating but ...he couldn’t do it.
Except for his grandmother, no one seed to be happy regarding him dating Mo Roulan. However, his grandmother was not in China. S he couldn’t take Mo Roulan to see her.
He had not told his grandfather yet.
But he knew that the old man would be just angry.
The old man could be very impulsive sotis and he didn’t want him to go to Lin Qianru and question her about Mo Roulan.
That could drive a wedge between their new relationship. He ca out of his trance when he heard a sigh from the girl seated beside her.
They were inside the car and on their way to He Corporation.
Pulling Mo Roulan in his arms, he asked her gently
"What is wrong?"
"The new sester is starting two weeks later."
The answer made He Jian sigh as well.
Because it ant he would not be able to see Mo Roulan whenever he wanted.
"I will miss you, baby."
He liked how Lanlan’s cheeks turned red whenever he called her baby.
This was sothing he had seen in a movie. At that ti, he had found it very weird. But now, he liked to call Mo Roulan this way.
It felt very sweet...especially her red cheeks.
" too."
Mo Roulan’s response was almost a whisper but He Jian’s heart jumped in joy.
He smiled as he kissed her hair and then said gently
"But studies are also important."
No matter how much they would miss each other, he would not let her compromise her studies.
Mo Roulan humd in agreent.
"Did you get your results?"
"No, we will get it on the first day of the new sester."
He Jian nodded his head with a smile and said
"I am sure you will perform well. What reward do you want?"
"Reward?"
Mo Roulan blinked in confusion. She had never received a reward before for performing well in the exams
He Jian smiled seeing her confusion. He kissed her forehead and said
"Yes, Reward. Let reward you and encourage you to perform well in next sester."
Mo Roulan chuckled at the words but said
"I don’t need anything."
He Jian didn’t ask her anymore. He knew that she wouldn’t ask for anything.
He just needed to think of sothing on his own.

The phone rang and Shen Yiling imdiately slid the screen to answer the call as soon as she saw who was calling her.
"Brother Fengju, did you find out anything?"
On the day, she had seen Mo Roulan’s mother in the hospital, Shen Yiling had called Shi Fengju and asked him for help.
The doctor in the hospital refused to tell her anything about Mo Roulan’s mother so she could only seek Shi Fengju’s help knowing well that no one else would be ready to help her.
Shi Fengju also refused initially.
The broken friendship with He Jian seed to have wounded him as well. However, with so coaxing and acting, Shen Yiling was able to convince him.
But it took him almost a week to call her back.
"Yiling..."
His voice didn’t sound right when he spoke. In fact, it was laced with slight shock and fear.
It confused Shen Yiling.
"Brother Fengju, did you find out what is wrong with Mo Roulan’s mother?"
Shi Fengju was silent for a few monts before he uttered.
"Yes..."
His voice was almost a whisper but he didn’t continue for a long ti making Shen Yiling frustrated with his useless silence.
But she had to be patient.
After all, she needed him. And finally, he spoke.
"She is suffering from stomach cancer."
Shen Yiling was surprised but her mind also started to run faster. A mont later, she sneered and said
"Ha...how shaless Mo Roulan is! Her mother is suffering from such a grave disease and she is there ...with Brother Jian enjoying herself. Brother Fengju, do you understand now why I was saying that Mo Roulan is not right for Brother Jian?"
On the other side of the phone, Shi Fengju just frowned and didn’t say anything in response.
He was not thinking about Mo Roulan at that mont. He was thinking about sothing else.
"Yiling, is Uncle Wang there with you?"
Shen Yiling frowned at the question but nonetheless answered.
"No, he is not. Why?"
A sigh escaped Shi Fengju’s lips. There was another long silence. He was actually hesitating.
He wondered if he should tell Shen Yiling about what he found out. Would she be hurt?
But if she knew beforehand, then she would be able to manage things well.
He rembered that she had told him that Uncle Wang had accompanied her to the hospital. It seed that they didn’t co across each other that day ....but if they did, things could beco complex.
Thinking this, Shi Fengju decided to tell Shen Yiling everything.
"I found out sothing shocking about Miss Lin’s past."
When Shen Yiling heard this, her eyes couldn’t help but shine brightly.
Perhaps she would be able to use this information to degrade Mo Roulan’s reputation.
Then He Jian would have to break up with her to save his own family’s reputation.
However, what Shi Fengju said next shocked her equally.
"Miss Lin is Uncle Wang’s ex-wife."
