Chapter 224: I Couldn’t Let Mu Qiqi Take It Away From Me Again
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Lin Mu’an went to visit Shen Ruoyi because he had been asked to do so. He acted like a gentleman in front of her and he even brought along a bouquet of fresh flowers.
Cen Suyun was so delighted that she could not help smiling. She gave them some space immediately after she found some excuses to leave the ward.
Shen Ruoyi was lying on the bed and she appeared like a sleeping beauty. Although she held no special feelings for Lin Mu’an, she still appeared gentle. She looked at him with a soft facial expression. “Mu’an, thank you for coming to see me.”
“Sister Ruoyi, it’s not a big deal. I’m worried about your health too.” Lin Mu’an addressed Shen Ruoyi as a sister because he wanted to make it clear that it would be impossible if they were to be put together as a couple. Although he had promised the elders to come and visit Shen Ruoyi, it did not mean that he would comply with their arrangements.
Shen Ruoyi could feel that Lin Mu’an was trying to distance himself from her. It was indeed weird. She had claimed that he would make quite a good pair with Mu Qiqi a few days ago. But, now she came to him with another thought in mind. Was it not ridiculous?
“I’m fine. Soon, I’ll be discharged from the hospital.”
“That’s good. I have something to deal with in the afternoon. I won’t stay here for long. I hope that Sister Ruoyi could be healthy the next time we meet each other.”
Lin Mu’an was just like a gentleman but he seemed to be overly polite.
Cen Suyun noticed that Lin Mu’an had left her daughter after staying with her for only a short time. She could not help but ask her daughter, “What’s wrong? Didn’t you have a good chat?”
“He came to visit me because he was asked to. He didn’t come on his own initiative,” Shen Ruoyi said rather awkwardly.
“It’s fine. You could get close to each other as time goes by. You don’t have to rush into things. Daughter, you can ask him out when you’re recovered. Young people fall in love with each other easily. Moreover, your grandpa has helped you a lot this time around. Finally, he has shown some love and kindness toward you.”
What could Shen Ruoyi do? She could only nod her head and admit that her mother was right.

Lin Mu’an went to the flower shop again after he left the hospital. He bought a bouquet of fresh flowers again. The employee there recognized him. She soon smiled at him and said, “Sir, are you going to visit another patient? Do you want the kind of flowers which you bought just now?”
“Give me a bouquet of flowers. I want the most beautiful and dazzling flowers. Furthermore, use the best wrapping papers.”
“Sure, please wait for a while. Are you going to give it to your girlfriend? I could see that given how much thought you’ve put into it.”
Lin Mu’an smiled but remained quiet. Soon, he bought a bouquet of fresh flowers from the employee. The flowers were wrapped up nicely. Then, he went to the martial arts center.
It was just like their previous meeting. Lu Qianqian was already there. She could not help but sneer at him when she saw him holding a bouquet of beautiful fresh flowers. “Don’t tell me that you’re going to give it to me.”
“Has anybody bought you flowers before?” Lin Mu’an took off his coat and asked Lu Qianqian.
Lu Qianqian was quiet. She made no reply. So, it indicated that she had never received any flowers from anybody.
“It shouldn’t be like that. I’ll be a kind person today and let you enjoy the feeling of being admired by somebody. I’ll let you feel how it is when people are jealous of you.” After that, Lin Mu’an went to the changing room to change. He asked her when he walked out of the changing room, “So, what do you need to release your stress about today?”
“I don’t know what I’m going to do in the future.” Lu Qianqian pouted her lips. “I was an obedient girl before. But, I learned a lot of unnecessary things when I was with that bastard. For example, I learned how to fight, how to play pool, and what to do in a club. But, all of those things are meaningless to me now.
“I’m nothing like Qiqi. I’m not a smart girl and I can’t go and study in Sheng Ting University.”
“But, she goes there and learns how to cut up corpses.”
Lu Qianqian rolled her eyes at him. “By the way, I want to beat you up today again.”
“You better think carefully about this. You owe me two days now if we count today. Then, I’ll want you to compensate for it.
“I’m not afraid of that.” Lu Qianqian was not afraid of his tricks. But, she received quite a great shock when she saw the bouquet of flowers on the table. She was just like a kid who had not been loved all this while. Suddenly, somebody popped a candy into her mouth and it was indeed a different kind of feeling.
“You wore a suit just now. Where did you go? Aren’t you supposed to be staying at home and writing your novels given the kind of job you do?”
“I went to visit somebody in the hospital because I was asked to do so.”
“A girl?”
“Mu Qiqi’s cousin.” Lin Mu’an put up his defending stance and waited for Lu Qianqian’s fists.
“I seem to understand it now. Is this bouquet of flowers…”
“You think too much. The bouquet of flowers that I bought for her was simple and inexpensive. I stayed there for around three minutes, including the time I walked into the ward.” Lin Mu’an shrugged. “I don’t have a good impression of this woman. It’s rare…”
“It’s rare indeed. Come! Take my blow!”
Lu Qianqian used up her entire energy to vent her pent-up frustrations. They stayed there for an entire day again.
They were soaked with sweat. Then, they lay down on the floor. Suddenly, Lin Mu’an said to Lu Qianqian, “You’re the only child in your family. Your family could only rely on you. So, the Lu family will be your responsibility one day. If that is the case, why do you have to worry about your future? That’s the thing you need to be responsible about.
“Go and train up as the heiress of your family’s property. Then, everything will be taken care of…”
It seemed like everything was quite simple. Lu Qianqian nodded her head. “Thank you for your flowers.”
After that, she got up and held the bouquet of flowers in her hands. She walked home intentionally because she wanted to feel the jealousy of others.
It was true indeed. A lot of people glanced at her all the way home, especially the girls. They were jealous of her.
At that time, Lin Mu’an got up and sent a message to Lu Qianqian. “It’s your turn to accompany me tomorrow. Be careful. I’m a man… who could ask for anything.”
Lu Qianqian kept her phone. At last, she broke into a smile…

On the other hand, Mu Qiqi left the university openly because she knew that Cen Suyun and her daughter were investigating her living quarters. Then, she went to the small villa which she shared with Sheng Xiao intentionally. She wanted them to know that she had another living place.
But, the classmate who had stalked Mu Qiqi could not enter the villa. So, she did not know that Sheng Xiao was there too.
Mu Qiqi even prepared many scenes for them. She let her classmate see a lot of things. Hence, Cen Suyun could have a lot of evidence in hand when she complains about her in front of Grandpa Shen.
Then, it would be rather interesting when Cen Suyun goes to the villa with Grandpa Shen.
Certainly, Cen Suyun was quite excited when she knew where Mu Qiqi was staying at the moment. But, they did not dare to act rashly. It was because the fact that Mu Qiqi was staying at another place did not indicate that she had some other secrets. They needed to get more evidence against her so that Grandpa Shen would be disappointed in her. Then, he might hate Mu Qiqi at the end.
But, Cen Suyun did not know that Shen Jianchuan had seen through their scheme.
“It seems like God is finally on our side. We’re having our moment now. You’ll be discharged after a day. Then, you can go and date the young master from the Lin family.”
“Mom, I know what I’m doing. You don’t have to bother about it.”
“I’m telling you now. Don’t let Mu Qiqi take it away from you again! Young Master Lin is a youth with much potential!”
