Chapter 47 - What really happened?

Chunlan gasped, listening to Menxiang who was sharing her bed, lying down with a solemn expression. "Is it true?"

"I am telling the truth! I heard that Wen Tianxiang, Honglin's father accepted bribe from Romania in the Annual Crust Auction. We lost so many materials last month! The President was so furious, he had Wen Tianxiang thrown in prison!" Menxiang said.

Chunlan shook her head. This didn't happen in her past life. Wen Tianxiang is this country's Minister of Justice, if anything happens to him, the Wen family will suffer a huge blow. Who is so audacious to go against the mighty Wen family?

Chunlan froze. "Could it be that man has finally come?"

"Who?" Menxiang was perplexed.

"No one important. Is there anything else?"

"Oh....Someone came to visit Jihai in the hospital..I think his name is...Wang Zhong!" Menxiang smiled. "He is Jihai's savior. He found Jihai unconscious and called a doctor."

"Wang Zhong?" Chunlan's eyebrows furrowed at the unfamiliar name. Could it be that person?

So frustrating! None of this happened in my past life.

"How is he?"

"Still unconscious and heavily injured." Menxiang sighed. "I heard you broke up with him."

Chunlan lowered her eyes.

"Chunlan, what exactly is going on? Did Jihai cheat on you?" Menxiang shook her head. "No...that's impossible, he loves you so much! What happened, Lan'er?"

Chunlan smiled emotionlessly. "I just don't love him anymore."

"Lan'er, I......"

"Enough. Menxiang, I feel so tired now. I want to sleep."

Menxiang sighed at her friend's ugly expression. She looked as if she was bȧrėly holding it together.

She thought. She already has enough problems, I shouldn't add to it.

"Alright. I will let you rest." She got off the bed, ȧssisting her friend and covering her with a blanket.

As she walked out of the room, she spotted a guy in a peach coloured suit sitting on a bench with a tablet. She quickly hid in the room, shutting the door when she saw him raise his head.

Chunlan turned her head to the source of the sound. "Who is there? Menxiang?"

Menxiang felt her heart pound loudly, her palms sweating nervously. "Why is he here?"

"Who?" Chunlan asked confused.

"MO BINGWEN!"

Selfish, spoilt heiress he cursed. He was so angry with the way she dumped him without a second thought. Hopefully, her friend, Menxiang wasn't like that.

He knew she had come here to see her friend so he was waiting outside the room. He tapped furiously at his tablet, engrossed in his work.

His sixth sense alerted him of an unwanted presence, making him raise his head to see a pair of hazel brown eyes stare at him before they widened retreating back into the room.

He smiled, amused at the childish act. He got up and hid in a corner, watching the door. Five minutes later, Menxiang stuck here head out of the door, looking left and right. After a while, she came out of the room releasing a relieved sigh.

"BOO!" A voice boomed behind her, scaring her with a high pitched shriek and making her loose her footing as she tried to turn around.

Mingwen caught her before she fell, his arms wrapping her waist securing her as she was in a slanted position, her face a mixture of fear and shock.

He took his time to admire her pretty features, his eyes finally landing on her pink lips. Surely, this should be the right time to end the romantic scene with a kiss, he thought.

As he closed his eyes, his lips pursing he failed to see the girl snap out of the shock replaced by anger.

"You jerk!" She pushed him away with a strong force, making him fall on the floor with a thud.

"Why did you scare me like that?" She glared angrily at the man on the floor.

"Because you refused to come out." His eyes lowered on the floor made him look like a mistreated child.

Her eyes strayed to the broken tablet on the floor and her heart wavered. She knew how important electronics were to Mingwen so she stretched her hand out to help him.

His lips that was pouting suddenly curved into a smile as he grabbed her fair dainty hand. With a little hard tug, she was propelled forward, landing squarely on his hard ċhėst.

Both of them were breathing heavily, looking into each other's eyes. Her face was flushed, her heart beating erratically as her palms rested on his shoulders.

Why did she always end up into this kind of scenes?

Meanwhile, Mingwen was highly pleased with himself for what he had done. It seems like what Cai Longwei said was true.

Cai Longwei: Always make her flustered. Always keep her heart racing for you!

He decided to hit the iron when it is hot as he wrapped her lush waist, mending their bodies tightly. He lifted his head to kiss her....

"What is going on here?!" A enraged male voice said.
