In the end, Shen Youlin didn't let Mo Roulan leave.
"Only for fifteen minutes."
Mo Roulan said and Shen Youlin hugged her tightly.
Standing in a corner with Shen Youlin, Mo Roulan looked around. She couldn't see that woman anywhere.
"I will bring something for you."
Shen Youlin saw Mo Roulan's dry lips and said.
Mo Roulan just nodded her head without glancing at Shen Youlin as she was busy looking around. Just when Shen Youlin walked away, Mo Roulan saw that woman again.
She walked towards the woman in waitress dress. The woman was about to turn her face. However, before she could see her face someone stepped in front of her.
Mo Roulan frowned and stepped back but the person also stepped forward and intentionally bumped against her.
There was a sound of something hitting the floor and Mo Roulan saw the red stain on the beautiful white dress of the girl standing in front of her.
"Don't you have eyes to see where you are walking?"
The girl shouted attracting everyone's attention.
Mo Roulan felt so many eyes on her and looked at the girl with confusion. It was only after a few moments she recognized her.
She was Shen Youlin's cousin whom she had seen at Youlin's birthday party.
But why was she trying to humiliate her intentionally?

You Youxin looked Mo Roulan from up to down with disgust-filled eyes.
"You don't seem to be invited here. Where is your invitation card?"
She sneered inside her heart as she already knew that Mo Roulan didn't have the invitation card. She had seen Youlin dragging her inside the banquet hall.
Shen Youlin would not be able to come here for a few minutes because she had already made arrangements for her. These few minutes were enough for her to show this girl her place.
"What? You don't have any?"
She sneered when she saw that Mo Roulan was not saying anything.
"I came here with someone."
Mo Roulan replied nonchalantly.
"I know the girls like you very well. Thinking that there is going to be some rich men inside, you sneaked here like thieves. What a characterless girl." You Youxin said.
Mo Roulan eyes were cold and sharp.
"I also know the girls like you very well. Humiliating someone just for your own fun. That's how low you are."
You Youxin was furious when she heard Mo Roulan's words. A waiter was passing from nearby. She picked a glass of wine to throw on Mo Roulan's face.
But when she raised the glass, her hand was suddenly slapped away heavily making the glass fall down on the floor.
"Daring enough to look down on my girl? Either you are drunk or you think that this young master is a soft-hearted person."
Mo Roulan looked at the wide back covering her completely. The familiar voice made her surprised and her heartbeat sped unconsciously when she heard 'my girl'. Her eyes got red and Mo Roulan blinked her tears in confusion.
Why was she crying?
Was it because she remembered something similar?
Once in the past, he had saved her just like this.
The people whispered as they looked at the Young Master He.
While You Youxin face went pale at the sight of ice-cold blue eyes. She felt her heart sinking when she saw the cold smirk on the beautiful lips. Her Aunt and Shen Yiling would eat her alive if she offended Young Master He in any way.
But she composed herself and said politely
"Mr. …Mr. He, how can she be with you?"
She was sure that he was confusing Mo Roulan with someone else.
He Jian glanced at her as if she was a waste. He turned around and patted Mo Roulan's head who was startled by his actions.
"Are you alright?"
She nodded her head in a daze because he was standing very close to her. His slender jaw was in her view as he took off his black coat and covered her with it.
You Youxin eyes widened when she saw this scene and the banquet hall quieted down.
"CEO He"
It was Mr. Song who was told by his assistant that someone was creating a scene in the banquet. He didn't pay any attention to it before. However, he had not expected that the Young Master He was also involved in this scene.
He Jian didn't turn around when Mr. Song called him. Mr. Song felt embarrassed and angry.
"Youxin, apologize."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAt this moment, You Youxin's father stepped forward and said to her daughter strictly. You Youxin was shocked by the turn of events. When her father asked her to apologize, she wanted to refute.
However, he continued before You Youxin could open her mouth.
"Right now, Youxin."
So You Youxin could only whisper in a low voice.
"Sorry"
You Youxin's father, You Fen breathed a sigh of relief. He then looked at the girl standing beside He Jian and said
"Mr. He, actually it is not my daughter's fault. Your partner's dress is the root of her misunderstandings."
He Jian casually glanced at You Fen and then said
"I didn't know that there was a dress code for the banquet, Mr. Song. First you say that come with female partner and the dress code. Mr. Song should not send the invitation card to this Young Master in the future for such parties."
Mr. Song's swallowed and said immediately.
"No…No dress code. Mr. He, there was no dress code."
He Jian chuckled.
"Then why do people here have problem with my partner's dress?"
He Jian looked at Mo Roulan with a playful smile and said
"This young master like her this way."
The kitten's wide eyes stared at him with shock and his smile widened.
Amidst the crowd of people, Shen Yiling saw everything with red eyes. Her fists were clenched as she looked at Mo Roulan coldly.
'He Jian only belonged to her. After all, she had loved him for so many years.'
