Chapter 1244: Past Life (2)
However, regardless of what was said, Jian Yiling had no intentions of going. To her surprise, Qin Chuan sent the invitation to Zhai Yunsheng’s office.
When Zhai Yunsheng saw the invitation, he sneered. Then, he decided to take Jian Yiling with him.
Zhai Yunsheng said to Jian Yiling: “Don’t be afraid of him. Let’s go and see what tricks he’s up to.”
As Zhai Yunsheng said this, Jian Yiling decided to listen to him. And thus, on the day of the birthday party, she turned up at the Qin Residence.
The Qin Residence was incredibly lively. Many people came to attend Mo Shiyun’s birthday party in order to get a chance to speak with Qin Chuan.
Mo Shiyun got up early in the morning. As she had a team of makeup artists and designers, they managed to make her look extraordinarily beautiful and radiant. She was so beautiful that people couldn’t even take their eyes off her.
When Mo Shiyun looked at herself inside the mirror wearing a diamond-encrusted dress, she couldn’t help but be in a trance.
Qin Chuan’s words could easily put her into heaven or hell.
Before Qin Chuan brought her back into Beijing, she lived at the bottom of society. Her mother was in jail and she didn’t have a decent job. She spent her nights in a cheap and rundown room and sometimes, she couldn’t even eat three meals a day.
From time to time, when someone recognized her, she would be cursed at.
Every single day was filled with pain and suffering. No hope could be found.
And now, she was the girlfriend of Qin Chuan. Under his wings, she could live a life that was envied by others.
But Mo Shiyun had no idea why Qin Chuan chose to do this.
But she knew that Qin Chuan was all she had. And thus, as long as she kept his heart, she could continue living such a life. She could continue to have everything she had right now.
But during the time she spent here, Qin Chuan hadn’t even touched her. This made Mo Shiyun feel rather uneasy.
Mo Shiyun had no idea why this was happening. Even though he treated her so well and let her live in his house, he hadn’t even kissed her.
…
And so, even if he treated her well. unless they got married or something changed for the better in their relationship, her heart would not be at ease.
And as it was her birthday today, Mo Shiyun wondered if this was a chance for her to establish a deeper relationship with Qin Chuan.
As she stared at the mirror, the reflection of Qin Chuan appeared. Today, he was wearing a dark suit.
His appearance was tall and handsome. Everything he did spoke of elegance.
Qin Chuan walked behind Mo Shiyun and placed a diamond-studded necklace around her neck.
When she saw the necklace, Mo Shiyun’s face became slightly flushed.
After the necklace was secured on her neck, Mo Shiyun turned around to give Qin Chuan a hug.
However, Qin Chuan quickly took a step back. Then, he said: “The guests have arrived.”
Before Mo Shiyun even got a chance to react, Qin Chuan took steps toward the main hall.
Once again, Mo Shiyun didn’t understand why he was avoiding her.
Inside the Qin Residence, Zhai Yunsheng appeared with Jian Yiling. The two of them were holding hands.
As soon as they appeared, almost everyone’s attention fell onto them.
This was the first time in two years that the two of them appeared together in public.
“Is that Master Sheng? Isn’t he meant to be sick? Why does he look so healthy? He doesn’t seem sick at all!”
“And even though Jian Yiling disappeared for two entire years, she managed to return unscathed. It was also revealed that she’s the Dean of Lahaisen Hospital. Life is really unpredictable aye.”
“I’ve heard that the two of them are planning to get married. I’m not sure if it’s true.”
“Well, they’ve been engaged for two years already. It’s normal to get married around this time. Furthermore, the Zhai family is becoming weaker by the day whereas the Jian family is growing in momentum. At this point in time, the two of them are considered well matched for one another.”
