Shen Youlin came out of her room. She looked around the beautiful mansion and walked forward. Entering the living room, she saw Song Xinyi sitting on the couch looking through some files and documents.

She cleared her throat.

As much as she just wanted to leave, she knew it would be very rude.

She could guess that it was Song Xinyi who found her outside the bathroom and brought her here.

She was thankful for that.

In the state she was yesternight, she knew that she wouldn't be able to save herself from You Youxin if she had come out of the bathroom somehow.

Song Xinyi raised her head.

Her eyes unconsciously roamed all over Shen Youlin's body.

She was wearing the dress she had chosen.

"You look pretty."

Shen Youlin looked at her face to see if her words had any other meaning. When she couldn't find anything strange, she mumbled a low 'thanks'.

"Thanks to CEO Song for letting me stay here last night."

Song Xinyi nodded her head while staring at Shen Youlin's face.

"Just a simple thanks?"

Shen Youlin frowned when she saw Song Xinyi standing up from the couch.  As she stepped towards her, she stepped back and stuttered

"Where are you coming? Stay there."

Song Xinyi felt a little funny inside her heart when she saw the scared Shen Youlin.

"Okay, what do you want? I'll give it to you. Don't need to come closer."

However Song Xinyi continued to step forward and she was finally very close to Shen Youlin. 

Shen Youlin continued to step backward but her steps halted when she felt something behind herself.

She cursed inside her heart to see the wall. She looked at Song Xinyi who was now standing so close that she could feel her warm breath on her face.

"St…stay away, please."

'Why the hell I am stuttering?'

She closed her eyes when she saw Song Xinyi moving more closer.

But she suddenly opened them in the next second when two arms surrounded her waist. She looked down and saw the hairy head on her shoulder.

Her whole body was frozen as Song Xinyi hugged her in her arms.

She could feel her heart beating inside her chest.

Song Xinyi smelled the sweet scent for a few more moments and then left Shen Youlin. Looking at the wide eyes of the girl in her arms, she smirked

"What? Are you surprised? Did you expect me to do something else?"

The smirk made Shen Youlin furious and she instantly pressed down the weird feelings inside her heart.

"You…next you touch me without my permission, I will beat you to the death."

She even rubbed her fist with her other hand to look intimidating.

However, Song Xinyi's smile didn't change. She tucked Shen Youlin's hair behind her ear and touched her earlobe sensually.

A shiver ran down Shen Youlin's spine and she jumped away from Song Xinyi.

Song Xinyi chuckled.

"Why are you so jumpy? Both of us are girls in the end."

"That's where the problem lies."

Shen Youlin slapped her hand on her mouth as soon as she realized what she just said.

On the other hand,  Song Xinyi looked at her with interest.

--------------

The cab stopped outside the large restaurant and Mo Roulan stepped out from the inside. After paying the fare, she looked at the entrance of the restaurant.

The security guards saluted while looking down at her simple pants and shirt when she stepped inside the restaurant.

There was no doubt that it was one of the top restaurants of City H.

She walked further inside while looking around. But her sight stopped at the reception where a woman other than her mother was sitting.

Mo Roulan's lips pursed in a thin line. Her fists were clenched as she walked forward. Her eyes were a little indifferent and she continued to look around.

To find someone.

At the entrance of the large hall where people were sitting and eating she couldn't see the person, she wanted to see.

She walked back. It was not like she could go inside the kitchen and check each and every waiter whether it was her mother or not.

But if the receptionist was someone else then the woman she had seen yesterday must be her mother.

She would confront her mother and make her tell the truth herself.

She felt a very faint pain inside her chest.

Her mother really lied to her. Again and again.

First she hid that she gave that key to Su Mian and now this.

What was she to her mother that she had to hide things from her instead of talking about them with her?

Till the time she could remember, in this life, she had never done anything that could make her mother hiding anything from her. Everything that she did was for her family, for their comfort and happiness.

But why does it feel that she would still lose everything slowly and slowly?

She suddenly felt like crying.

Lost in her own emotions, Mo Roulan didn't look around while she walked towards the entrance.

Just when she was passing by the reception, a voice suddenly stopped her.

"Roulan"

Mo Roulan steps froze when she heard the familiar voice. She turned around swiftly and followed the direction of the voice.

Her eyes brightened a little when she saw her mother behind the reception table. But they soon were filled with suspicion when she remembered that there was someone else there when she had passed by from here before.

"What are you doing here?"

Lin Qianru asked her daughter with a smile.

Mo Roulan stared at her mother's face and answered

"I was just passing by with Youlin; had a free class. So I thought to come here and see the place where you work."

Lin Qianru smiled and nodded

"That's good."

Both of them were silent till Mo Roulan asked her mother.

"You weren't here when I passed by before."

Lin Qianru's head was lowered and she was looking down at the large notebook placed on the table. When she heard Mo Roulan's question, her eyes widen a little and she clenched the pen in her hands.
