“You…”
She pointed her finger at him accursedly.
“What?”
When he looked at her with an innocent face, she again shut her mouth and huffed an irritated sigh.
Leave it. She’ll just ignore the fact that he was sitting beside her.
Although Mo Roulan said this inside her heart, she couldn’t do it.
She couldn’t just ignore that she was sitting inside his car with him.
A feeling of déjà vu suddenly hit her.
—————-
“I thought you were different. I thought that I could really…”
Inside the car, Mo Roulan looked at He Jian in confusion as he said all this looking straight.
“Chief He, what are you talking about?”
When he turned his head to look at her, she gasped seeing the coldness in his eyes. He had never looked at her with that look before.
“That night, it was you who led my dog to that isolated alley.”
It was not a question but a statement.
Mo Roulan heart sank at his words. Her hands trembled as she remembered that night of seven years ago.
“I…I didn…”
He knew the truth but not the whole. She wanted to explain herself but why is it that she can’t form her words seeing his cold eyes?
It hurts to see his indifference.
“You were involved with those kidnappers, right? You did all that for money, right?”
“Yes, but…”
She tried to explain herself but he slammed the steering wheel loudly making her shrink in fear.
“Get out.”
The door opened and Mo Roulan got out of the car in a daze.
————-
“Lanlan…”
“Huh?”
Mo Roulan came out of her reverie and saw a beautiful enlarged face in front of herself. She couldn’t pay attention that the man was calling her by some other name than ‘Miss Mo’ because all of her attention was somewhere else.
The worry and concern in those blue eyes baffled her.
Is she still that pathetic that she was starting to hallucinate that he would ever worry for her?
She leaned back more on the seat to distance herself from him.
He Jian saw this and leaned away from her. The worry and concern were now not there in his eyes now as if it was never present.
“Are you alright, Miss Mo?”
Mo Roulan nodded her head confused at his question. Only then she felt the wetness on her cheek. Startled, she touched them only to feel a little moisture.
“I just …my eyes got some dust, that’s why.”
She lied when she saw him still looking at her.
He Jian nodded and then looked outside the window of the car. His fingers placed on his thighs were clenched.
Mo Roulan thought that she was successful in lying. But she wasn’t.
————–
Inside the bathroom, Shen Youlin washed her face with water but her eyes were getting blurry with every passing second.
“Roulan, I have to go to her. She is waiting for me.”
She whispered but just as she took one step her legs went soft and she fell down. Everything around her was rotating.
“Youlin”
She heard someone calling her and raised her head but couldn’t see who it was. After a few moments, she called out in an uncertain tone
“Youxin…”
“Of course it’s me, baby.”
You Youxin said as she touched Shen Youlin’s lips.
Shen Youlin backed away from her and muttered
“Stay away. How many times I have told you…we’re sisters.”
You Youxin eyes were cold and she dragged Shen Youlin in front of herself.
“So what? I don’t care. I just want you. I even had to apologize to that bitch because of you.”
Shen Youlin was confused and shook her head to clear the view in front of her.
“I don’t have that kind of feelings for you. You should stop all this nonsense.”
You Youxin sneered and pulled Shen Youlin’s hair roughly.
“Youlin, I think you didn’t hear me clearly. I don’t care. I just want you.”
Shen Youlin felt the pain in her scalp and it helped her remain a little conscious. “You…what did you mix with that drink?”
You Youxin smiled innocently and caressed Shen Youlin’s cheek.
“Baby, you still haven’t remembered the taste. The things that you and me loves the most.”
Shen Youlin was afraid when she saw the craziness in You Youxin’s eyes. She didn’t think of anything and hit her head with You Youxin’s head with her full force.
“Ahhh…”
You Youxin fell down on the floor sideways holding her head. Seeing this as an opportunity, Shen Youlin tried to run away but her legs didn’t corporate with her.
She crawled a little and then with the support of the sink she stood up on her legs.
“Youlin…”
She avoided You Youxin’s hand and hurriedly exited the bathroom. Locking the bathroom door from outside, she leaned against it and panted heavily.
“Youlin, open the door.”
You Youxin’s shouts could be heard from outside the door.
“Roulan…”
Whispering Mo Roulan’s name, she strengthened herself and tried to leave from there.
‘She has to reach Roulan.’
But her efforts were in vain. She had just taken a few steps when she again fell down on the floor. Before her legs could touch the floor, she was held by someone.
A very different scent of perfume invaded Shen Youlin’s nose.
She opened her eyes and saw the blurry figure of Mo Roulan in front of herself.
“Roulan…”
Hot tears streamed down Shen Youlin’s face. She hid her face in the chest of whoever was holding her and tightly held that person’s waist.
“Take me away from here.”
‘Somewhere far away with you.’
While Song Xinyi looked down at the girl who was clinging to her. In her view, there were only soft black hear.
Her hands unconsciously rose to touch them. But suddenly she felt the soft body in her arms falling down.
She immediately held Shen Youlin by her waist and raised her head to look at her face.
Her lips parted a little when she saw the peaceful face of the girl in her arms.
“Miss Shen”
She patted Shen Youlin’s cheek lightly but she didn’t wake up.
Helpless Song Xinyi in the end grabbed Shen Youlin’s waist with one hand and picked her up in her arms.
Without any hesitation, she exited the Mansion through the back door with the wide-eyed assistant following her.
