Chapter 308 - Lanlan Is Mine

"Mom…"

Mo Roulan was very scared as she saw how fast her mother's face went pale after she heard Cheng Yang's words.

She glared at Cheng Yang who seemed to have realized that perhaps he should not have said what he had said just now.

He felt very guilty under Mo Roulan's glare.

Even Mo Chen who was sitting on the bed was looking at his sister with wide eyes.

Mo Roulan moved to her mother's side and patted her back lightly as she whispered in her ears that she was alright now.

However, Lin Qianru's hands were trembling. She held Mo Roulan's hand that was patting her back and then made her sit on the hospital bed.

"It's okay. Mom is alright, Roulan."

She tried to assure her daughter. However, the tear that slipped through her eyes told a different story. Mo Roulan's eyes were filled with concern. She had wanted to ask her mother to sit. However, Lin Qianru didn't seem to agree and instead asked her daughter softly with tear-filled eyes.

"Roulan…are you injured anywhere else? Don't lie to me now, please."

Her voice trembled at the end making Mo Roulan's sniff once. She couldn't see her mother like this. Even Cheng Yang was now realizing why Mo Roulan had lied to her mother before.

She didn't want her mother to worry about her.

Actually, he had been very angry when he had come to know that Mo Roulan fought against a wolf alone and then get this ghastly wound on her leg. 

Anything could have happened to her. He could understand that she went inside the forest to save her brother but he still feels very scared to imagine how she had fought alone with a wolf.

The same emotions would start to fill his heart whenever he would see the wound on her leg and in those emotions, without thinking anything he revealed that Mo Roulan was actually lying.

Now he wished that he would not have said that.

Seeing that Mo Roulaan was comforting her mother, Cheng Yang decided to comfort her brother.

They as a family would of course feel scared after knowing this.

"Mo Chen, your sister is fine now, alright? Don't worry."

However, Mo Chen was not as weak as Cheng Yang had thought of him. The boy instead nodded his head lightly and said

"Of Course, I know that. My Jiejie is the strongest person in this world. What can a mere wolf do to her! In fact, I am worried about the wolf. Is it alive now?"

Cheng Yang was speechless after hearing his words.

In a daze, he remembered that the policemen had told him that the wolf was dead now. So he shook his head dumbly and said

"No, it is dead now."

Mo Chen pretended to sigh in despair and said

"See…I knew it. The poor wolf. I wish I would have been there to tell it to take a U-turn when it had seen my sister. It would have been alive now."

Mo Roulan's lips twitched when she saw her brother's antics. However, she didn't say anything when she saw that her mother had started to smile and she was not even trembling anymore.

Her brother could do one thing right at least.

Cheng Yang was also relieved to see that Lin Qinaru looked fine.

"It must be cold now."

Mo Roulan took the bowl of porridge from her mother's hands and frowned. Seeing this, Cheng Yang forwarded his hand to take the bowl from Mo Roulan's hands and said

"Let me take this away. You will get warm porridge in just a few minutes."

Cheng Yang's face had a deep smile as he put his hands around the bowl. The smile on his lips only made him look beautiful.

So beautiful that even Mo Roulan was dazzled for a moment.   

Perhaps because she had never seen him smiling like this.

"You should smile often."

She said gently and honestly.

Cheng Yang who had not expected her to say these words was startled for a moment before the smile on his lips widened and he asked cheekily.

"Why?"

His hands were still around the bowl and touching Mo Roulann's fingers a little.

"Well…you look handsome with that smile on your face."

Mo Roulan said truthfully.

Cheng Yang was again left startled by Mo Roulan's words. Before he laughed out loud.

He had never expected Mo Roulan to be so bold. Why did he feel that he was being flirted with!

However, Mo Roulan's innocent eyes kept him reminded that it was a genuine compliment and nothing else …at least it was not what he wanted.   

This was the scene He Jian saw when he opened the door of the room slowly to check whether Mo Roulaan was really inside the room.

His body froze completely when he saw how close Cheng Yang standing to Mo Roulan. He saw the smile on Mo Roulan's lips and how bright Cheng Yang's face looked.

'They look good together.'

Fang Zhihan's words rang in his ears and He Jian suddenly felt a sharp pain inside his chest.

He hid behind the wall when he saw Mo Roulan looking in his direction.

Leaning against the wall, He Jian still could hear the low sound of laughter from the room. The most prominent among these sounds was Mo Roulan's laughter.

It was melodious.

If the circumstances would have been different then He Jian would have felt very happy to see Mo Roulan laughing like this. However, in the current circumstances, he didn't find any joy at all.

He didn't like her closeness with Cheng Yang…the boy who perhaps has feelings for her.

"Boss"

Chu Feng ran to his boss when he saw that He Jian was leaning against the wall.

Did something happen? He had wanted to ask. 

He Jian's eyes went back to cold and indifferent when he saw the door of the room being opened again completely. He didn't even look at Chu Feng.

It was Cheng Yang who had stepped out at this moment with a bowl of porridge.

He Jian walked towards him and Cheng Yang who had also noticed He Jian stopped amidst his steps. He waited for He Jian at the same spot.

"Stay away from Lanlan."

These were the first few words He Jian said when he was in front of Cheng Yang.

Cheng Yang's face went cold. A moment later, he raised his eyebrows in surprise and asked with a cold smile on his lips.

"And why so, Young Master He?"

He Jian's eyes cooled down when he noticed how mockingly Cheng Yang was calling him Young Master He.

Looking at the boy with sharp and cold eyes, he just said a few words to explain himself

"Because what you are seeking for, you won't ever get from her."

"Because Lanlan is mine."
