596: Lu Jinan Hates Mo Roulan

Lu Jinan Hates Mo Roulan

The voice was so cold that it could make an ordinary person flinch in fear.

However, Mo Roulan herself had a hard heart for the past two years. She was not scared at all as she turned around and looked at the owner of the voice.

It was none other than Lu Jinan.

Mo Roulan's face went emotionless as she saw Lu Jinan walking towards her. His eyes were filled with coldness and disgust as he looked at her.

She didn't even feel surprised instead it was like a déjà vu for her because she had witnessed such Lu Jinan many times in her past life.

There was just one difference.

In her past life, she used to stand in front of him with her head lowered and hear silently as he and his friends would insult her.

But today, she stood in front of him with her head high and stared straight at him with equally cold eyes.

"Do you have any shame?"

Lu Jinan's voice was filled with rage as he said these words.

"After leaving my friend two years ago, you still have the courage to return. What do you need now? Did the wealth of your new stepfather suddenly seem less? Or did …"

Lu Jinan was forced to pause amidst his words because a loud slap graced his cheek the next moment.

His head was tilted as he stared at the ground with shock-filled eyes.

He didn't seem to believe that he was just slapped by Mo Roulan. When he raised his head again to look at Mo Roulan, his eyes were still filled with disbelief.

After disbelief came anger. But Mo Roulan never gave him the chance to express anything else.

"Say one more word about my family and I will sue you for spouting out rubbish against them. Also…let me tell you half information is always harmful. It is not me who came here. It was your friend who dragged me to the marriage bureau and then married me forcefully. So go and question your friend instead of coming he…"

Mo Roulan was interrupted by the sound of footsteps.

She saw He Jian standing at the entrance of the living room with confusion-filled eyes. Behind stood He Zhuang who had a somber expression on his face as he looked at Lu Jinan and then at her.

Both of them saw the finger imprints on Lu Jinan's face. He Jian especially noticed how Lu Jinan was looking at Mo Roulan. He frowned and realized that Lu Jinan must have said something wrong to Mo Roulan.

"Lanlan…"

He called out in concern but Mo Roulan only stared at him emotionlessly.

She then looked at He Zhuang and smiled mirthlessly.

"Didn't Mr. He ask me a question this morning? I hope you received your answer now."

How could she stay as He Jian's girlfriend when she never got any respect from the people who were close to him?

All of them behaved as if she was a gold digger and was trying to climb higher using He Jian.

Lu Jinan just proved it today.

Mo Roulan gave one last cold glance to Lu Jinan warned

"I dare you to speak about my family that way again. Remember what I said."

After that, she finally climbed the stairs and went to the room.

It was after almost fifteen minutes when He Jian entered the room.

He immediately saw the plate of sandwich on the bedside table while Mo Roulan scrolled through her phone. The sandwich on the plate was untouched.

He sighed as he walked to her side and said softly

"Eat it. Then we will go downstairs to have dinner."

Mo Roulan, however, ignored him.

He Jian sighed yet again. He didn't want to do it but he didn't have any option.

The next moment, he took her phone away from her.

Mo Roulan looked at him coldly but He Jian silently pushed the plate in front of her and repeated his words.

"I will eat whenever I want to. Will you now force me to eat as well as you married me forcefully?"

The words hit He Jian.

He never wanted to marry her like that but at that time, he didn't see any other option but to make her stay by his side.

But he knew that he had committed a mistake and he didn't shy away from hearing her cold words. He still stayed gentle and said

"Why are you venting your anger on food? If you are angry, you can hit me…I won't say anything. Here…"

He even sat down and presented his cheek in front of her.

Mo Roulan looked at his cheek. She suddenly felt a brat in front of He Jian's mature behavior.

In the end, she picked up the plate and had her sandwich.

There was no use in keeping her stomach empty because of a man like Lu Jinan. He Jian who saw her eating finally sighed in relief.

He wanted to stay because she had allowed him to stay near herself for the first time but he was also afraid that he would make her uncomfortable.

So he decided to go and get fresh.

By the time, he came out, Roulan had finished the sandwich.

"Let's go for dinner."

Mo Roulan nodded her head and climbed down from the bed.

He Jian was happy that she walked beside him unlike how she walked ahead of him or behind him in the past few days.

He was expecting her to stay angry because of what Lu Jinan did but he was happy that nothing like that happened.

He didn't know that his act of presenting his cheek in front of Mo Roulan without hesitation and asking her to vent her anger on him had made the anger vanish later.

As she climbed down the stairs, Mo Roulan pondered He Zhuang's question seriously this time.

She was actually moved by He Jian's actions in the room. 

It showed that he really loves her.

He Zhuang was also right. He Jian was not at fault.1

But she still thinks that they won't be happy with each other. He Jian's people would never accept her and she also remembered her mother's reaction to this relationship.

She never wished to make her mother unhappy…especially when she blamed this relationship for her current situation.

The dinner passed in silence.

Even Grandfather He was silent today.

Either he was upset because Butler Zhang didn't return or he knew that something had happened.

Whatever it was, Mo Roulan returned to the room after having her dinner while He Jian went to his father's study room.

"What did you ask from Lanlan, Dad?"
