“Mr. He, Can we please pretend as if we don’t know each other? I don’t want other people to know anything.”
Mo Roulan said as soon as He Jian put down the phone. She also put down the magazine in her hands as she looked at He Jian seriously who was looking at her with confusion.
“What are you talking about…and where are your diary and pen?”
Mo Roulan was startled on hearing the last few words. She looked down at her hands that were empty and then looked at He Jian.
“I …didn’t bring it.”
A frown marred He Jian’s forehead and his face didn’t have any emotion as he looked at Mo Roulan’s face.
A moment later, he said seriously
“Miss Mo, every time when you enter my office, you are supposed to keep a diary and pen with you.”
Mo Roulan nodded her head and He Jian sighed.
“Answer with words, Miss Mo.”
“Yes, Boss.”
Mo Roulan said immediately and then she continued
“I will bring a diary and pen right now.”
Saying this, she immediately left the office.
Outside the office, Mo Roulan closed the door hurriedly and then beat her head with her palm. How embarrassing it was.
It was obvious that she had never needed to say this because He Jian proved just now that he was never going to let anyone know that they knew each other. In fact, didn’t she had already asked him to do that before?
And he had even agreed to that condition of hers.
Mo Roulan continued to scold herself all the way to her office.
On the other hand, inside his office, He Jian was looking at Mo Roulan’s figure on his laptop screen with amusement-filled eyes.
He chuckled deeply seeing as she beat her forehead with her palms. How could he not know what was going inside her heart!
He had suddenly found out that he liked to see Mo Roulan very flustered and embarrassed in some situations … like right now.

A huge car stopped outside the booth where the traffic police officer usually sits. The window of the car lowered down and a man dressed in a black tuxedo signed the traffic police officer to come closer.
The traffic police officer looked at the car and then at the man. A moment later, he silently walked towards the car.
The man pointed towards the back seat and asked
“Do you recognize her?”
The traffic police officer looked towards the back seat and his eyes flashed with recognition when he saw the old woman on the back seat.
“Yes, I do recognize the old lady. She was saved at the last moment a few days ago by a girl when a truck was about to hit the old lady.”
The young man’s eyes flashed with relief and he asked immediately.
“Can you please tell me who that girl is?”
The traffic police officer looked confused and then shook his head.
“No, Sir. Actually even I have been waiting to see that girl she ran away that day without telling me, I had wanted to reprimand her for what she did. She should not …”
The traffic police officer stopped amidst his words when he realized what was he saying.
He looked at the man sitting inside the car and immediately tried to correct his words.
“What I mean is that…she could have made the situation more messy with what she did. She is still so young…”
The traffic police officer stopped speaking when he realized that he was just making it messier and messier.
His wife used to say right. He could never learn to lie.
The man inside the car, fortunately, didn’t look angry. He just took a card out of his pocket and gave it to the traffic police officer.
“Here is my card. If you ever find that girl, call me instantly.”
The traffic police officer looked at the car and then at the man suspiciously. He could see that he was a very influential man but the traffic police officer gathered his courage and asked
“May I ask you the reason for looking for this girl, Sir?”
The man was silent for a moment before he said
“I want to repay her in whatever way I can for saving my mother.”
The traffic police officer nodded his head in understanding. This thing was quite common in some noble families. They would never let anyone who helped them just like this.
So he took the car from the man’s hands. A few moments later, the car left from there.
“Ruru…”
Inside the car, the man turned around to look at the old woman and smiled sadly.
“She was not here, Mom.”
“No, she was.”
The old woman said firmly.
“I had seen her here. That girl….she looked just like my Ruru…”
The young man sighed and said firmly.
“If she really looked like the younger sister, then I promise you that I will surely find her for you.”
The old woman didn’t say anything in response and turned to look out of the window while the man sighed heavily for the umpteenth time in the day.

“How much is it?”
Tian Yuan asked the shopkeeper as he took out his wallet. After the shopkeeper told him the cost, he paid and left the shop with the vegetables and necessary ingredients he had bought.
Though he was living in Liu Ji Fan’s mansion he was making his own food and from the next month, he was going to start to pay the nurse fee also on his own.
He had already found out just how much he needed to pay that nurse.
He didn’t want any favor from Liu Ji Fan now. Tian Yuan smiled bitterly. In fact, he had already taken so much from him.
But he still didn’t know whether he should be grateful to Liu Ji Fan or not.
Because the man had taken away more from him than giving.
Lost in his thoughts, Tian Yuan was crossing the road when he heard people shouting and came out of his trance.
His eyes widened when he saw a truck coming in his direction. Using the little bit of consciousness he had, he immediately stepped aside.
However, who had thought the truck would follow his suit!
Baffled, Tian Yuan looked at the truck that was coming closer and tried to step sideways again. However, it was too late.
The truck was too close and he didn’t have enough time.
Just when he was thinking that he should wait for the pain, an arm hugged his waist and he felt his body going left.
After that, everything went blank for him for the next few moments.
