Mo Roulan stood outside the college gates waving her hand to stop a taxi. It was already very late and she had to go to Cheng Mansion for her part time job also. She looked at her watch and was more anxious after seeing the time.

She took out her phone from her bag as she thought of calling a cab.

But the next moment, when she raised her head, a black colored car of the limited edition suddenly stopped in front of her.

The door of the driver seat opened and a man stepped out.

Although Mo Roulan had noticed him today only, she recognized him. He was He Jian's assistant, Chu Feng.

The man walked to stand in front of her and said respectfully.

"Miss Mo, My Boss will drop you where you wish to go. Please come with me."

There was even a polite smile on his lips making him look like a gentleman. But Mo Roulan knew just how much of a gentleman he was. Although he was very loyal towards his boss Chu Feng could be as lethal and dangerous for anyone who had any kind of bad intention towards his boss.

In her last life, when it had been revealed that she had been the reason behind He Jian's kidnapping, Chu Feng's attitude towards her had changed greatly.

Since she has experienced that side of him, she obviously knew this.

"Thanks for the offer but I am sorry to say that I can't accept it."

She replied to him with the same politeness.

However, as soon as she finished her words, she heard the sound of another door being opened. Both of them, she and Chu Feng looked towards the car. The door of the back seat was opened as He Jian stepped out.

He faintly glanced at his assistant who understood what his boss was saying and stepped back to go and sit inside the car.

With his long legs, He Jian walked towards Mo Roulan. His blue eyes didn't move away from her face all this while.

Mo Roulan tried to move her eyes away but there was something in his gaze that was daring her to move her gaze away... as if she would not like the consequences if she accepted this dare.

"Miss Mo."

He Jian said when he was finally in front of Mo Roulan.

There was a safe distance between them but Mo Roulan didn't know if it was his height that made her feel intimidated. She unconsciously took a step back while He Jian visibly frowned at her move but didn't say anything.

"Mr. He."

She nodded her head in greeting.

And then there was an uncomfortable silence which seemed to make uncomfortable only her. The man in front of her was standing lazily while staring at her fluffy head with his hands tucked in the pockets of his pants as if he was enjoying seeing her like that.

Mo Roulan cleared her throat.

She opened her mouth to thank him for today when He Jian's phone started to ring.

He took out his phone and glanced at the number. He didn't even step back to talk and slid the screen to answer the call at the same spot.

"Hello"     

"Jian, is everything alright? Yiling told me that you left in hurry. We are trying to call you for a very long…"

  The road outside the college was empty. There were no noises. The words from the other side could be heard very clearly.

Standing in front of He Jian, Mo Roulan didn't even wish to raise her head. She felt as if she was just slapped again.

'So he was with Shen Yiling…'

Her heart was feeling so cold that the coldness penetrated to her bones making her body tremble.

"Lanlan, are you alright?"

Her shoulders were grabbed and she raised her head to see the beautiful face in front of her eyes. The blue eyes were filled with concern and panic.

For whom?

Was it for her or someone else? She didn't even wish to ponder over such thoughts. She struggled to let him know that she wanted him to free her shoulders which he did and she stepped back.

Clenching her trembling fingers, she said coldly.

"Mr. He, I don't know if you came here for me only today. If this is the thing, then I wish to let you know that I don't appreciate your care towards me because…"

She looked in his blue eyes that were looking at her without any emotion.

"… as I have said before I don't need it." 

With these words, she turned around to leave.

However, she felt the phone in her hand vibrating continuously three times. Only then Mo Roulan did realized that she seemed to have switched on her off phone a moment ago.

Mo Roulan was curious after hearing so many vibrations. Except for Shen Youlin there was no one else who messaged her so she unlocked the phone to check the messages while walking forward.

  Indeed it was Shen Youlin who had sent something to her. There were some photos. As the photos were downloading, Mo Roulan looked around to see if there was any taxi or not, unknown of the blue eyes still staring at her back.

When she lowered her head to look down at her phone, she couldn't take a step ahead. 

The photos have been downloaded already.

One on the screen had Shen Youlin as she leaned on the couch with lost eyes and a smile on her lips. Mo Roulan fingers trembled as she scrolled down with a heavy heart. Somehow she recognized the absent look in Shen Youlin's eyes.

'No Youlin has promised me. She can't break it like this.'

However, as Mo Roulan scrolled down the screen and looked at other photos, she felt her vision blur. When she saw the timing of the messages being delivered, she felt her heart hammering inside her chest. She recognized the place in the photos.

Still, she tried to call Shen Youlin three times.

No one answered.

The next moment, she put her phone back inside her bag. Frantically, she searched for a taxi. She needed to go and check if the photos were true.

  If she booked a cab now, it will take her a long time to reach there.

"Do you need to go somewhere?"

She turned around when she heard the familiar voice.

He Jian was looking at her with knitted brows as he said

"I can drop you."

  It felt shameful to ask the help of a man to whom she had said that she doesn't want his help a few minutes ago…but Mo Roulan didn't seem to care for anything at all at this moment.

When Shen Youlin didn't care for anything to fight for her every time then why should she care just because of the past that only she knew?

So she nodded her head and said

"Yes, please."

With that, she ran to sit inside He Jian's car without even hearing what he said back while the cold man looked at her back with amused eyes.

When He Jian sat inside the car, he heard Mo Roulan telling some address to the driver.

As soon as she completed, he saw that the driver was looking at her with strange eyes. He frowned and glanced at Chu Feng who shook his head as if indicating that he doesn't know anything.

Mo Roulan already knew the reason behind the driver's weird expression but didn't explain anything. She just wished to reach the bar as soon as possible.

Her fingers continuously tapped on her leg as she looked out of the car window with a heavy heart.

Mo Roulan didn't know what she would do if the photos were true and Shen Youlin really broke her promise.

But somewhere she was not ready to believe that Shen Youlin really did that. In the past week, she had seen with her own eyes just how determined Shen Youlin was to leave that hell.

She had a will to stop her addiction. She had suffered so much for that then how could she let everything go waste with this one attempt of hers.

She didn't notice that the man sitting beside her was noticing her every move. Seeing the anxiousness on her face, he glanced at the driver who increased the race and the car staring move faster than before.

In the next fifteen minutes, the car stopped outside the bar gates.

Mo Roulan didn't wait for anything and stepped out of the car as soon as it stopped.

The three men inside the car looked at her speed with different emotions.

Looking at the entrance of the bar, He Jian glanced at the driver and said

"Speak."

The driver, of course, understood what his boss was saying and said immediately.

"Boss, this bar is not a good place for youngsters."

These few words were indicating many things. Chu Feng eyes went wide and he looked at his boss who was frowning and the next moment stepped out of the car.

Chu Feng could not help but think that his boss was becoming more like a father figure for Miss Mo.

First, he went to her college and now this...

With a sigh, Chu Feng could only follow his boss.
