Chapter 241 - Lin Qianru's Thoughts About He Family

When He Jian went inside Mo Roulan's room after the lady doctor had left, she was already in the new clothes. The previous clothes that had been spoiled were now changed.

He knocked on the door but could already see Mo Roulan lying on the bed. 

Lin Qianru was sitting on the other side of the bed and caressing her forehead while saying something with red eyes. However, on hearing the knock she raised her head and wiped her eyes when she saw that it was He Jian.

"Jian, come in."

Lin Qianru smiled gently and asked He Jian to enter the room.

Mo Roulan also sighed in relief. Actually, her mother was telling her again that she should not do anything like this in the future.

Mo Roulan was already feeling guilty but she didn't regret what she did. She understood that while saving the old woman, she should have tried to protect herself also.

In the end, she was also an important person in her mother and brother's life. So she also promised her mother that she will be very careful next time in such situations and will never let any harm come to her while saving others.   

Lin Qianru was relieved after this and just at that moment, He Jian knocked on the door.

He Jian stepped inside the room and frowned when he saw that Mo Roulan's eyes were completely red and swollen. It seemed that she had just cried again.

"What happened? Why did you cry?"

He asked coldly.

Lin Qianru didn't sense anything strange in his words as she thought that He Jian was usually like this. She had heard from the women's in the building that He Jian didn't even open the door of his apartment for others whenever someone tried to introduce themselves to him.   

And if the door opened then there was some other man who opened it. Lin Qianru knew that it must be the man who always followed He Jian everywhere.

Thinking of this, Lin Qianru could not but wonder again as to what kind of noble family He Jian actually belonged to. He also has a man to follow him around and he even helped her daughter back then when she had been arrested by the police.

However, at that time, He Jian had also told her that it was easy to release Mo Roulan because the police didn't have any solid evidence against her.

In the end, Lin Qianru could only put a full stop to her thoughts. She couldn't ask He Jian or his grandfather directly something like this.

However, one thing she was sure of. The family was definitely more powerful than their family.

In situations where even she couldn't help her children, He Jian could do it readily. However, he was not that famous because if he was then the people in the building would have recognized him.

Putting all the dots together, Lin Qianru, in the end, could only come to one point.

That He Jian's family must have good connections but it was not that popular in City H.

If only Lin Qianru knew how wrong she was then she would have perhaps felt pity at her own naivety.

However, currently, this naïve lady was telling He Jian the reason behind Mo Roulan's red eyes.

"It is because of those ointments. It burns when it is applied on wounds."

He Jian frown went deeper. He glanced at the red-eyed Mo Roulan and said

"I will ask Zhihan to change the medicine."

This time Lin Qianru finally felt a little funny after she heard He Jian's words. She couldn't help but chuckle and look at He Jian's face to check if he was serious. Seeing that he was, she looked at Mo Roulan whose face didn't have any less weird expression.

"Jian, it is supposed to burn a little. You don't need to ask the doctor to change the ointment. Or perhaps Roulan will remember this little bit of pain and will think before letting any harm coming to herself."

Mo Roulan's eyes almost went wide and she looked at her mother to confirm whether it was really she who said these words. 

"I see, Mom. You are no longer the soft mother I had before."

Mo Roulan pouted a little dramatically while Lin Qianru rolled her eyes at her daughter's words.

"Well if I continued to be soft, who knows just how many things you will hide from me."

Saying this, Lin Qianru got up from the bed and then collected Mo Roulan's clothes.

On the other hand, He Jian's frown also disappeared when he saw that Mo Roulan was lively again.   

"Stinky boy"

The people inside the room except He Jian were all startled when they heard the sudden shout.     

He Jian's eyes went cold as he turned around to look at the old man standing at the door. However, Grandfather He was not afraid of him at all as he said

"What are you doing here inside a girl's room? Have some reservations ….let her rest and now come back with me."

Lin Qianru immediately felt embarrassed that these thoughts didn't come to her mind. However, it was understandable for Grandfather He to think this.

After all, he was an old man.   

She looked at He Jian softly and then said

"Jian, you also must be tired after a long day. Go and rest at your apartment. Auntie is very grateful to you for helping us so much."

He Jian shook his head politely and was about to say something only to get interrupted by his grandfather.

"What are you saying, Miss Lin? My grandson was saved by your daughter. It is the least he can do. Please don't put this matter to your heart. The people from this old man's family are not that shameless that we don't even put those people in our eyes who had helped us in our bad times."

Lin Qianru smiled at these words and still thanked Grandfather He.

Grandfather He, on the other hand, was very satisfied with her behavior. He didn't feel like Lin Qianru was a clever woman. She also didn't seem to have any greed.

It was better if the girl had this kind of mother.

However, the girl was sharp. Grandfather He thought as he remembered how Mo Roulan had given him back the check he had offered to her.

In the end, Grandfather He still squeezed out the words from his mouth.

"Girl, take care. Don't hesitate to call that Lady doctor if you feel any discomfort."

Grandfather He said as he looked at the Lin Qianru again.

After that, he glanced at He Jian who had already started to walk towards the door of the room with not so a good face. 

And then walked past Grandfather He without even saying a single word.. Grandfather He smiled awkwardly on being left behind and then hurriedly followed He Jian.
