Chapter 151 - She Knew About Her Being Arrested

"Stop the car here."

Mo Roulan said when she saw that the car was a street away from the college.

The driver, however, looked at He Jian for permission and didn't stop the car.

"Why?"

came the question from beside Mo Roulan as soon as she finished.

Mo Roulan looked at He Jian and thought that this was really the time where she should tell He Jian the limits of his care she can accept.

"I don't want to be seen by anyone while getting out of Mr. He's car."

The car's atmosphere instantly became deathly silent and suffocating but Mo Roulan remained firm in her stance under those cold blue eyes.

Sitting in the front, Chu Feng as well as the driver could not help but look at her with admiration-filled eyes.

Only if they knew that Mo Roulan looked firm only from the outside. From inside, even her innocent heart was shivering because of the coldness of those blue eyes.

It didn't matter if she had spent enough time in He Jian's presence in her past life. He Jian's indifference and coldness still scared Mo Roulan quite a lot …just like other people.     

"Why?"

Another cold 'why' was thrown at her.

"Mr. He, me and you, both of us differ in status in this society quite a lot. I don't want my classmates or other students to gossip about me when they see me stepping out of such an expensive car."

Mo Roulan answered straightforwardly. She didn't care whether He Jian liked her answer or not. What she knew was she was not ready to compromise with the peacefulness of her life.

Although there have been many dramas going on in her life, she still treasured the tranquility with which it was going on.   

It was much better than her past life…much much better.

Here she could at least look at herself in the mirror without hating herself or without feeling any inferiority.

And she doesn't want to change that.

He Jian looked at Mo Roulan silently without saying anything. The driver had slowed down the car and they were just about to cross the street making Mo Roulan frown as she thought about what she should do.

She surely can't accept this 'care' which made her uncomfortable in any way.     

"Stop the car."

Finally came the voice making the driver stop the car and Mo Roulan sighed in relief.

"Thanks, Mr. He"

After thanking He Jian politely for dropping her at the college, Mo Roulan stepped out of the car.

Blue eyes silently looked at her back until the figure in their sight didn't disappear completely.

'She doesn't want to see with me.' Mo Roulan had conveyed what she wanted to successfully.

He Jian really understood the limits of his care she would accept.

But he didn't like it even a bit.

--------

In the end, Mo Roulan was late for her first class so she had to miss it as the professor inside the class was very strict and would not allow her to enter in between the ongoing class.

Sitting somewhere in the college while doing her paperwork, she suddenly felt someone staring at her.

Mo Roulan swiftly raised her head and looked around.

She frowned when she didn't find anyone and thought that she must be overthinking.

She leaned against the wall that was behind her and lowering her head, she continued to do work.

Behind the wall Mo Roulan was leaning against, a pair of eyes peeked outside and looked at her figure silently for a few moments.

It was after ten minutes later, the figure moved back a little and it was none other Shen Youlin.

A relieved sigh escaped from Shen Youlin's lips and she turned to pick her bag that was lying on the ground. 

Reluctance flashed through her eyes as she put the bag on her shoulders. She knew that now she had to leave from here.

She had just wanted to see whether Mo Roulan was alright after last night's incident or not.

Although Shen Weisheng had told her that Mo Roulan had been left by the police, Shen Youlin didn't feel better until she didn't see Mo Roulan with her own eyes.

This was the only reason that she came to the college even though she had to hear Shen Weisheng's strict lecture warning her not to go anywhere after college or else he would tell everything to her so-called mother. 

Sighing, Shen Youlin was about to leave from there, when her hand was grasped suddenly.

With a frown, Shen Youlin turned to look at the person but her whole body froze when she saw who it was.

"Youlin"

Mo Roulan whispered softly as she saw Shen Youlin avoiding her eyes.     

'I knew that you would come to see me.'

Mo Roulan had wanted to say but heard Shen Youlin saying first.

"Leave me, Mo Roulan. I had come here to pass my time but seeing that you are here now I can't even sit here. Leave my hand so that I can go to some other place."

said Shen Youlin coldly.

Mo Roulan was startled by Shen Youlin's cold behavior. It was the first time she had seen Shen Youlin behaving like this and she unconsciously believed that Shen Youlin might really have come to pass her time here …not to see her.

"I was just going to leave. You can sit here."

Mo Roulan said softly and Shen Youlin remained silent.

Mo Roulan was about to leave but she suddenly turned around to look at Shen Youlin.

"Last night, did you know that I have been arrested by the police?"

Mo Roulan finally asked the question that had been bothering her since last night.

Her eyes filled with hope looked at Shen Youlin waiting for her answer.

She would be glad if Shen Youlin answered 'no'.

However, the answer was not what she wanted.

"Yes, I knew."

She Youlin answered without any emotion on her face and Mo Roulan really couldn't find any trace of a lie on her face.

Her face went pale and Mo Roulan stepped back suddenly.

Her lips trembled a little and she swallowed the bile in her throat.

Maybe their friendship really ended as Shen Youlin had written in that letter.

"You can use this place as you wish. I will leave right now."

Mo Roulan smiled tightly and left from there.

And as soon as she left, Shen Youlin fell down to the ground as if she had lost all of her energy.
