Chapter 517: Not that Kind of Relationship
Because of him?
Qin Chuan paused when he heard this. He was rather surprised to hear such a response.
Then, he took a serious look at the woman in front of him.
If he was honest with himself, Qin Chuan would admit that he wasn’t very touched by her actions. However, he still recognized the effort that she had put in. He knew that it wasn’t easy for her to do this.
When Mo Shiyun felt Qin Chuan’s gaze on her, she started to feel nervous. Small beads of sweat came out from her palms.
However, she was still worried about Qin Chuan refusing. And thus, Mo Shiyun quickly added: “I don’t mean much. I just paid attention to you for quite some time… I see you as my idol…”
Qin Chuan smiled politely before he shook his head: “I’m not as good as you think.”
“No. You are. You’re an amazing person. Even without the support of the Qin family, you’re still an amazing person. You managed to achieve success using your own efforts.”
Then, Mo Shiyun told Qin Chuan about her past. She told him about her experiences and the hardships that she experienced in the past three years.
Qin Chuan quietly listened to Mo Shiyun. Mo Shiyun’s words were incredibly sincere and heartfelt. As a result, Qin Chuan felt rather touched by her words. He started to develop a new understanding of the girl in front of him.
“Mhmm. Let’s make a deal then. You can use your VIP card to help me. In return, I’ll assist you in your career.”
Qin Chuan was very clear with his words.
Mo Shiyun nodded. Although Qin Chuan still had a business-like attitude, at least this time, he would remember her.
She was no longer an insignificant stranger to him.
“Also… I have one more question…”
“Hmm? What is it? Just ask me.”
Mo Shiyun bit down on her lips. Finally, she asked a question that had been buried in her heart for a long time:
“Do you like Jian Yiling?”
“Why do you ask that?”
Jian Yiling was indeed special to him.
However, Qin Chuan didn’t necessarily like her romantically. He wasn’t too sure about his feelings towards her.
However, he would definitely try his best to protect her.
Jian Yiling saved his mother’s life. In addition, he enjoyed occasionally spending time with her.
“I feel like… You treat her quite differently… And I guess, I’m just a little curious.”
“Really? Well, she’s very important to me. However, it’s not what you’re thinking. It’s not that kind of relationship,” Qin Chuan explained.
“Mhmm…”
This answer gave Mo Shiyun’s heart some solace.

After walking out of the café, Mo Shiyun contacted a reporter that she had messaged in advance.
This was another preparation that she made.
The reporter had taken pictures of her and Qin Chuan together. There were photos of them seated together and photos of them walking out of the café together.
Once upon a time, she hated using these ambiguous photos to gain fame.
However now, she took the initiative to do such a thing.
She knew the distance between herself and Qin Chuan. As of present, she knew that it was impossible for her to cross over that distance even if she used all her strength.
And thus, she wanted to use Qin Chuan to become popular again. She wanted to become a topic of conversation again.
If she couldn’t get love, she would at least try to make her career progress out of this.
Three years ago, she would not have done such a thing.
However, three years had passed. She was no longer the same girl. Mo Shiyun had experienced the ups and downs of the entertainment industry.
In those three years, she saw the cruel side of humanity. She encountered so many walls and so many disgusted looks.
She knew that she had to make herself popular again. By becoming popular, she could gain the respect of others.
By becoming popular, she could rightfully gain the attention of Qin Chuan.
Furthermore, Mo Shiyun believed that such a post would not harm Qin Chuan.
She knew that the post would be deleted rather quickly.
