Even since they got together, Jian Jianan had never mentioned the fire. It made sense; it was not a pleasant thing to remember after all. Gu Mocheng thought she had not wanted to talk about it, or that she had forgotten, so he planned to present his marriage proposal by recalling the incident. He hoped to let her know that, in spite of the injuries he sustained on that day, he cherished it nonetheless.Now, it appeared that she would prefer not to talk about it. In fact, she did not wish to tal
He rose like a storm, ripping off all of the decorations he put up for the marriage proposal and discarding all of it; not even the photographs were spared!Now that he knew this was all fake, there was no need to keep those things anymore.Everything that had to do with Jian Jianan had to go. It had to be eliminated, right down to his heart!That same night, Gu Mocheng was assigned a mission by his superiors, and he proceeded to serve and defend his mother country. After a thorough goodbye
“Yes, I do. Two more classes in the afternoon. I’ll only stay for a while.” Jian Jianan passed a freshly peeled banana over to Dong Fangyu.Dong Fangyu paid it no mind and took a bite of it. “Oh, how I envy you guys. College life must be so much fun. I have to sit in this boring hospital everyday! Even by the time I’m fully recovered and get back to college, I’ll still be one step behind you, and graduate after you. Argh… what a pain in the ass.”“Isn’t that great, I mean? You’re gonna have seniors to look after you!”Dong Fangyu dramatically fell into Jian Jianan’s arms and jokingly groaned, “Very well, Senior, I shall entrust my future in your hands then!” “Sure, I’ll take full responsibility for you!”Dong Fangyu flinched. “Oh god, that was so cringy…”The girls glanced at each other and laughed. Remembering something, Jian Jianan went on and said, “Let me tell you something, Little Yu: Xiao Yihan and I are officially broken up now!”“What? For real?”“Of course! You think
“Xiaorou is who you truly love? Hah… Xiao Yihan, If I’m right, you were dumped by Jian Jianan, weren’t you? Jian Jianan’s been spending her every waking day with Gu Mocheng. Isn’t that why you decided to go after my daughter? Because you felt that you didn’t stand a chance with Jian Jianan!”Xiao Yihan had not even gotten the chance to explain before Xiaorou immediately cut in, “Mom, that’s not what it looks like! Brother Xiao is not that kind of a man, he-”“Shut up! Did I say you could speak?”“Mom…” Xiaorou groaned. Qi Xiuli looked like she did not hear her daughter, and stared dead straight at Xiao Yihan. “Mr. Xiao, I’d always thought you were a wise man, that’s why I had never opposed you and Jian Jianan being together. In fact, I supported you. But, if you ever plan on making a move on my daughter, I’d never forgive you!” “I’m sorry, Auntie. However you think of me, my feelings for Xiaorou will never change. She’s the one true love of my life!” Xiao Yihan grabbed Qi Xiaorou
It snowed for three days straight, and all the calls Jian Jianan dialed for Gu Mocheng failed to get through.Worried sick, Jian Jianan called Shen Linfeng. The tone of his voice did not sound pleasant as it connected, “How am I supposed to know where he is when you don’t even know? Don’t ever call me again. It’s getting annoying!”Shen Linfeng hung up as soon as he finished speaking, leaving Jian Jianan stunned and left out, which unsettled her feel even more. ‘What’s happening? Weren’t we
What Xiao Yihan had in mind was far simpler. He had something on Qi Xiuli: the evidence of her betrayal in their relationship. If the both of them were willing to hand over Li Yao Group and North-South Pharmaceutical to him, he could forget about it and let them go. If not, he was not to blame either!North-South Pharmaceutical and Li Yao Group… He wanted it all!Qi Xiuli and Xiao Yihan were individually up for no good. Meanwhile, Qi Xiaorou was over the moon. She thought that everything she
Jian Ansheng glared daggers at Qi Xiuli, as if he did not recognize her at all. The first time he met her, she gave him the impression that she was gentle, kind, heartwarming: good wife material. Ever since Jian Jianan’s mother had passed, Jian Ansheng had never thought of getting remarried. When Qi Xiuli showed up in his life and wholeheartedly looked after and cared for him, Little Bei, and Nannan, he was moved!Considering that Nannan and Little Bei were still young, they would certainly need a mother’s love. Qi Xiuli seemed to be perfect then. That’s why Jian Ansheng had decided to marry her! After they were wed, Qi Xiuli had the family well taken care of. Love and harmony bound everyone in the family. Seeing the happy smiles on Little Bei and Nannan’s faces, Jian Ansheng thought marrying Qi Xiuli into the family was the right thing to do. At first, Qi Xiuli had never asked Jian Ansheng for anything. He felt guilty and bought her all sorts of things. Everytime he did that,
Two hours later, the sign dimmed at last!God knew what Jian Jianan had been through in those two hours.The doors to the operating room opened and Jian Jianan dashed over as fast as she could. Qi Xiuli and Qi Xiaorou looked at each other and followed as well. Qi Xiuli was so worried her eyes had turned red from crying as she pushed herself to be as sorry as she could. Qi Xiaorou, on the other hand, was not focusing enough. Guilt and fear were obvious in her eyes. Jian Jianan was so worried ab
