Chunlan sat down beside Jihai after catching her breath. She had waited for Jihai but thought he might be hungry and went to buy some food for him before his part time job started.
"How dare you enter this office without being summoned?" Liu Wenyi's voice was scathing.
Chunlan said innocently "I wanted to talk to you about something and the secretary said I could go in. Who knew I would meet my boyfriend here?"
Wenyi struggled to contain her anger. How could she be looking for her when the first thing she said was Jihai's name? She was obviously her for Jihai!
Meanwhile, Chunlan was watching Jihai whose cold eyes betrayed panic and guilt. In their previous life, Jihai had come to this office alone when Wenyi threatened to cease his final result he needed to submit to Colossus in exchange for sex. In order to give her a better life, her Jihai lost his virginity to this scheming woman. In this life, no way!
Unable to endure Chunlan's eyes on him, Jihai turned to face Wenyi. "If that is all, we would be leaving now."
Wenyi's eyes burned with hatred as she tried to smile. This little girl tried to snatch her man! Who in this college didn't know she only had eyes for Jihai? She had always given him the best benefits she could offer, hoping one day, he would finally see her efforts but Chunlan was becoming a thorn in her flesh!If it wasn't for the Tang family backing her up, she would have finished her off.
"But Chunlan has something to discuss with me." Wenyi straightened up.
"I don't remember what I came here for anymore. Maybe some other time." Chunlan said lazily, making Jihai's lips twitch. Wenyi's fists clenched.
"We will going now then." Jihai wrapped his hands around her own and left the room.
As they walked, Chunlan stopped and smiled brightly. "Jihai, are you hungry? I brought you food." She waved it front of him.
"You....brought me food?"Jihai said in disbelief.
"Yes! Come, eat quickly. Your part time job is starting soon." She dragged him to a bench and started opening each container and brought out a pair of chopsticks along with it.
Jihai remained quiet for some time, staring at the food. "Thank you."
Chunlan paused, seeing how touched he was. She sat beside him, smiling tenderly. "Jihai, don't thank me easily." Because you have thanked me enough in our past life. Because I love you.
Jihai froze.
Jihai froze. "Chunlan, what did you say?"Chunlan felt her palms sweat as she stared at him. Did she say it out loud? What should she do? She had no plans of denying it but she was just too embarrassed to repeat it.Mustering her courage, she exhaled and said softly." Jihai, I.....love you." Her eyes darted around her surroundings as her cheeks turned into a beautiful shade of pink.She clasped her hands as she noticed the place turn silent. Finally she couldn't take it anymore and turned to face him. "Jihai, I-""I have to go. I can't be late for my shift." He stood up abruptly, picking his bag from the floor beside him, his expression cold and stiff . "Thank you for the food, I'll see you later."Chunlan stood up, intending to pack the food for him to carry looked up to see him already boarding a cab. She sat down, blankly staring at the food. What just happened? Why didn't he respond? Could
"But how did you know about the satchel?" Menxiang turned, confused."I saw it in your purse." Chunlan lied flawlessly, schooling her facial features in place."Oh...okay. Well I will see you later. Bye." Menxiang grabbed her purse on the table and closed the door, quietly.Chunlan stood with determination. She was going to get an answer from him. In this life, she was his and he was hers. There was no room for escape!She finally arrived in front of a fast food restaurant. She got out of the cab, tipping the driver and stared at the entrance. Taking a deep breath, she walked inside, sitting at a corner of the booth.She spotted him, taking an order from a group of girls, his face a cold mask. She could see it in their eyes the love and admiration. She consciously checked herself. Why did she forget to make up?After taking their order, he moved to her table not looking
Chunlan woke up, her heart full and fluttery. She stretched lazily like a cat, rubbing her sleepy eyes in a circular motion her lips curling upward into a tender smile as she recalled last night events.After the tender confession, they strolled around laughing. She took out a pair of scissors, her heart beating loudly. "In ancient times, lovers cut their hair and tied it together as they made a promise of eternal love. Jihai, are you willing?"He stared at her, taking the scissors from her as he snipped a strand of his hair and gave it to her quietly. She cut a strand of her hair and tied it together into a bow. "Keep it, Jihai. No matter where you go."He collected the hair and tucked it in his breast pocket as he placed a kiss n her forehead. "Its time to take you back."Chunlan's memory came to a halt as she heard someone sobbing quietly. Jumping up from the bed, she opened the bathroom door."M
On the holidays, Chunlan decided to go back to the Tang mansion. As she entered the limo assigned to pick her up she made a mental list about what she had to do this time.1. Patch things up with her little sisters.2. Protect her family wealth.3. Kick Ke Mingze out of her house!All these three was very important to her. When she had first transmigrated to this world, she had identified her sisters as enemies fated in this world. They were ruthless, annoying and spoilt little brats dedicated to making her life a living hell. She rubbed her eyes as she sighed. What she had once again failed to notice was the fact that her father and her mother hadn't planned to have other children after her. The elite society loved having only one child in a lifetime and her mother saw the twins as nuisances, leaving them neglected. She forgot that th
After the awkward dinner with her family ended, Chunlan decided to take a nap in her room. Meanwhile, the sisters, Tang Chunhua and Tang Chunying sat in the patio gazing at the birds chirping on the trees next to the windows."Don't you think Jie Jie is acting strangely? She invited us to go shopping.." Chunying asked, a little confused.Chunhua scoffed. "She is surely up to something!"How could Chunlan, their ruthless and selfish sister suddenly turn into an angel? Chunlan had always looked down on them, just because their births were unexpected. She never wanted to have anything to do with them, and now she wants to spend time with them? Unbelievable!"We should make plans. We should not allow her to ruin our graduation." Chunying said exasperated. She had important guests coming!"Don't worry. We will attack before she does. I won't allow her to make us a laughingstock!"C
Chunlan hardly stepped into the mansion when Chunhua grabbed her hand, gripping it tightly."Chunlan, what exactly do you want? Say it clearly! If you think you can bully me and my sister, just because you are back, then you are mistaken!"Chunlan pulled her hand back, her muscles cramping. She sighed heavily, repeating her mantra: They are your sisters! Your baby sisters!"Hua'er, I will admit today that I, Tang Chunlan have wronged you! I have failed to treat you and Ying'er well and I have no excuses. But from now on, I promise I will do better. Can't we just let bygones be bygones?!"Chunhua laughs before her eyes comes alive with pain and rage. "18 years! I waited for you to say that for 18 years! You never wanted to have anything to do with us, and you selfishly took all the love that was meant for us! Listen, I and my sister want nothing to do with you. Leave us alone!" She walked away angrily.
"Aw, so sweet.." Menxiang drawled."Okay, I have to go now. Bye, guys." Chunlan could hardly move her eyes from Jihai's own. Her heart felt alive in her chest."Bye." Jihai stared at the girl in the screen, his fingers failing to end the call. He could remain like this all day, gazing at her.Unable to bear it anymore, Mengqi stood up plastering a smile on her face as she walked to his side. "See you later, Chunlan." Her slender finger pressed the red button.Grabbing his sleeve, she whined softly. "Come, we are all drinking and you are the only one that is still sober.""Yet you didn't invite Chunlan." He removed his arm from her hands.She stammered. "I-I f-fforgot, okay? And besides we promised to get together at another time. Why don't you sit down and I will get your drink. Enjoy yourself, you are too uptight."Su Menxiang narrowed her eyes a
A small girl stood in the garden, plucking the sunflowers ruthlessly as she gazed at the gate impatiently. Where was he? He said he would be here! She stomped her feet in a tantrum."Lan'er, what is it? Why aren't you coming to play?" A small boy came behind her, dressed in a designer suit worth a small fortune not a thread out of place. He stared at the flowers on the ground solemnly, his little face set in stone."Nothing, Lin-ge, just go back. I am waiting for someone." She sighed, her little fingers playing with the edge of her dress as she looked at the ground, feeling sad.Honglin's face scrunched in confusion. "Who?"Chunlan was about to ignore him when she heard a sound at the gate, the stone landed on the ground with a thud. She became excited. "He's here."She ran to the gate and jumped up to unlock the gate. She smiled. "You are here."The cute little boy gazed at the gir
