352 The Shocked Lin Qianru
Inside the dining table, the atmosphere was a little serious for a few people but others who were chatting didn't notice it at all.
"Cheng Yang, here have this. I am sure you will like it."
Lin Qianru said to Cheng Yang as she put a dish for him in a bow and passed it to him.
Cheng Yang thanked Lin Qianru politely as he took the bowl from her.
Lin Qianru didn't know why the more she looked at Cheng Yang, the more she found him a very nice boy.
"That day, you left so suddenly, is everything alright in your family?"
She tried to pry in a little and Cheng Yang replied politely again
"Yes, Auntie, everything is alright!"
As he said this, Cheng Yang moved his eyes to look at He Jian. That day, he had to leave because their company got a very big deal and he wanted to be there with his mother.
Cheng Yang was already starting to take some interest in the family's business.
He wanted to make Cheng company gain some new heights so that he would be able to stand against He Jian and fight for Mo Roulan righteously.
Shen Youlin served Mo Roulan her favorite dish as she asked
"Roulan, how was your first day?"
Hearing the question, everyone including He Jian looked at Mo Roulan.
Under the stare of everyone, Mo Roulan smiled a little. She had many things to say but how could she say in front of He Jian.
So she smiled tightly and said
"It was good. I learned many new things." Thê source of this content n/o/v/(el)bi((n))
He Jian's eyes were filled with satisfaction hearing this.
Lanlan was happy.
That was what he wanted.
On the other hand, Shen Youlin narrowed her eyes.
"What are you talking about, Mo Roulan?"
It was Cheng Yang who had been sitting silently until now finally asked this question. Everyone raised their heads again and two sharp gazes immediately landed on Cheng Yang.
Cheng Yang frowned as he looked at Shen Youlin .He could understand why He Jian was looking at him so sharply but he didn't understand why Shen Youlin was doing the same.
Ignoring her, he looked at Mo Roulan, however before Mo Roulan could speak, Shen Youlin told him
"She is doing an internship."
Cheng Yang didn't like that Shen Youlin didn't let Mo Roulan speak but everyone else took it very normally. Shen Youlin had always been like so even Mo Roulan didn't find anything wrong with her behavior.
"Where?
Cheng Yang asked Mo Roulan again and Shen Youlin spoke again
"At He Corporation."
Shen Youlin smiled humorlessly when she said this and moved her eyes to look at He Jian.
He could fool Mo Roulan but not her.
She was suddenly doubting He Jian's intentions towards Mo Roulan.
On the other hand, Cheng Yang was also frowning at Shen Youlin's answer and looked at He Jian with a not-so-good face.
She saw her mother standing up from the chair suddenly and then saying in a low voice.
"I will go and rest for some time in my room. All of you...must have a good dinner."
After saying this, Lin Qianru silently left the dining room while a very awkward kind of silence hung there.

.
Inside her room, Lin Qianru was silently lying on the bed. Her eyes stared blankly at the wall that was in front of her eyes but her mind was somewhere else.
She was thinking about He Jian, He family, her daughter, her own family and so many other things.
Lin Qianru whether it was really alright to accept He Jian's help even after knowing that he belonged to such a big family.
Before she didn't feel this burdened but after knowing that he belonged to influencing He family, she felt very burdened suddenly.
She felt scared for herself and her daughter.
She didn't even know the reason behind her fear.
Lin Qianru didn't know but these days she would always feel that everything was soon going to end. As if she was soon going to part away from her children.
As if she needed to do something but she didn't know what she should do.
She sighed as she closed her eyes. A tear slipped out of her eyes and she tried to assure herself that she was just over thinking.
The door of the room was knocked suddenly and Lin Qianru immediately wiped her eyes. She wanted to wait for a moment before asking whoever was outside to come inside.
But before she could do so, the door of the room opened and Mo Roulan stepped inside the room.
"Roulan, I have taught you better than this."
Lin Qianru said to her daughter in a strict voice as she saw her storming inside the room without any permission of hers.
Since childhood, she had taught both of her children that they should knock on the door before entering the room. Though their family was not that well-off, Lin Qianru was sure that her children were no less than those noble family's children. In fact, they were much better than them.
Mo Roualn ignored her mother's scolding and asked her
"Were you crying just now?"
Her finger reached out to touch the corner of her mother's eyes and she frowned in feeling the moisture.
"What happened, Mom?"
She asked softly as she sat beside her mother.
Lin Qianru however shook her head as she hugged her daughter suddenly.
"I am just worried for you and Mo Chen."
"Why?"
Mo Roulan asked her mother as she hugged her back.
"I don't know. Maybe it is my menopause."
Mo Roulan went speechless at these words. She never knew that her shy mother could talk about this to her. However, she couldn't really find anything to say in response so she just hugged her mother back and said softly
"I am here, Mother and I promise you that I will make you proud in the future."
Lin Qianru nodded her head and closed her eyes with a smile on her lips.
Yes, She was just overthinking.
