Chapter 198 - Shen Weisheng's Cowardice

A nurse dressed in a hospital uniform was already waiting for them in front of the elevator.

Mo Roulan heard the nurse telling them she had especially been arranged by Fang Zhihan to show them the room where Shen Youlin is living.

Only then did Mo Roulan come to know that even the rehabilitation institution Shen Youlin was admitted inside belonged to Fang Zhihan.

'No wonder He Jian could arrange a meeting despite Shen Youlin's refusal.' Mo Roulan thought inside her heart as she followed He Jian inside the elevator.

She was followed by Shen Weisheng who suddenly seemed to feel very excited at the thought of seeing his sister after so many days.

Although Shen Weisheng knew that Shen Youlin might not feel much happy on seeing him, he still liked to see the annoyed face she made whenever he made her talk to him forcefully.

After all, that was the only thing he could do now.

Force his sister to talk with him for a few minutes or threaten her to live in the same villa he lived.

Shen Weisheng suddenly looked at Mo Roulan standing between him and He Jian.   

Actually a few moments ago when he was looking at Mo Roulan with a meaningful gaze, the thoughts inside his mind were completely different. 

His sister's sexual orientation and her so much adoration for Mo Roulan suddenly made him think that perhaps Shen Youlin liked Mo Roulan in that way.

However, this thought was only there for a few moments.

Shen Weisheng didn't dare to assume anything in such matters.

At the same time, he just hoped that his sister doesn't have any such feelings for Mo Roulan because …Mo Roulan doesn't seem to have that kind of attraction for girls.

And…Shen Weisheng sighed heavily as he glanced at the cold man standing on the other side of Mo Roulan. 

He wondered what kind of reaction this cold man would have if Shen Youlin really have such feelings for Mo Roulan and he found out about them.

As Shen Weisheng thought all this, the elevator stopped and the door opened.

They had reached the floor that had Shen Youlin's room.

The nurse walked ahead and led the way for the trio.

In just a few moments of walking on that floor, Mo Roulan, as well as Shen Weisheng, suddenly understood why Shen Youlin had refused to meet them.  

"Ahh…let me get out …give me the drugs. I want them…"

The desperate screams coming from the rooms made Mo Roulan have goosebumps on her arm.

The screams made her feel that those people could do anything for drugs …even if they were asked to kill someone, they would not hesitate to do so.

However, what more body shivering fact was that Mo Roulan could see that once in her past life, she was also one of them.

So desperate…

She remembered the moment she had gotten to know that she was pregnant. How scared she was at that time as she had touched her stomach and tried to feel the life inside it.

She was scared that she had already closed all of its chances to come out in the world because she was a drug addict.

She was inhaling poison every day then how could a life inside her stomach stay alive.

But the moment the doctor told her that her child was very fine and healthy …it was at that moment she had decided to leave the drugs completely.

It was at that moment, her struggles had started again.

The peace she was trying to find in the drugs had then ended.

Every moment she wanted to taste them again was no less than a life in hell. Many times, she would lose control and almost set out to go to that bar again and buy those drugs but every time something would happen that would make her remember that she still had a child to live for …to protect for. 

And hence she would return to her shabby house silently after buying some nutritious things for her body that could make her child healthy. 

The child in her belly had been a great support for her throughout the time she was trying to leave the drugs. 

But how is Shen Youlin faring here without having any support?

Especially when she had refused to meet anyone from her family …even her brother who wanted to see her once.

Mo Roulan now wanted to see Shen Youlin more desperately and hence she urged to nurse to hurry. The nurse glanced at her with a soft smile and immediately quickened her pace.

Shen Weisheng, on the other hand, had no different thoughts from Mo Roulan about his sister.

His eyes went slightly red as he wondered if he would have to hear the same screams from Shen Youlin's room.

Mo Roulan asked the nurse to increase the pace but Shen Weisheng suddenly found himself becoming a coward.

He won't be able to bear it if he saw Shen Youlin in the same state.

As a result, his pace started to slow down.

But the next moment, he felt a hand on his shoulder that made him step forward forcefully. He raised his head and found that the hand on his shoulder belonged to none other than He Jian.

"Jian…I won't be able to see her like that. It will remind me that I never gave her support and care that I was supposed to give …that I didn't protect the only person who genuinely loved me as a sister."

Shen Weisheng's eyes were filled with tears and he choked a little at the end of his words.

He Jian's cold blue eyes flashed with surprise as he had never seen his friend like that.

A moment later, he left Shen Weisheng's shoulder and stopped walking. Glancing towards Mo Roulan who was being led by the nurse ahead, he was relieved and moved his eyes back to his friend as he asked coldly

"Are you not doing the same now?"

"Now again she needs someone to support her but again you want to step back just because you can't accept your mistakes. Then again in the future, you will regret stepping backward now like a coward and this cycle will continue."

He Jian looked straight into Shen Weisheng's red eyes as he continued

"It is you who is solely responsible for your own decisions, Weisheng. This time, you have a chance but don't think that you will get it every time."

Saying these words, He Jian patted his friend's shoulder and then left from there leaving the baffled Shen Weisheng alone.
