A phone call interrupted his thoughts. After glancing at the caller ID, Jian Yuncheng immediately answered it.

The voice that came from the other end of the phone was gentle and clear:

“Brother, I was in the laboratory earlier. I didn’t have my phone on me. As a result, I couldn’t answer your calls. However, when I opened my phone, I saw that you had called me seven or eight times in a row. What’s the matter?”

Previously, Jian Yuncheng had made several phone calls to Jian Yunmo.

“If it’s convenient, it’s best if you come back early.”

“What’s up? Why are you asking me to come back so suddenly?”

“Something happened to Yiling.”

“What’s wrong with Yiling? What happened? Is she okay? Is she sick?”

Jian Yunmo’s voice sounded incredibly anxious.

“She’s physically okay.”

“Oh, that’s good,” Jian Yunmo replied. Upon hearing Jian Yuncheng’s reply, his voice sounded much more relieved.

“However, there are a few matters that need to be dealt with. As a result, I want you to come back,” Jian Yuncheng repeated.

“Brother... If it’s not super important, I’d rather not come back...”

Jian Yunmo’s voice trailed off. It sounded as though something was holding him back.

“Yiling is in a bad state of mind. She’ll be happier if you come back.”

“Bad state of mind? What’s wrong? What happened? Is it serious?”

Jian Yunmo’s voice became serious once again.

“It’s a bit serious. If it’s convenient for you, please come back and spend some time with her.”

“Brother... I...” Jian Yunmo hesitated.

Jian Yuncheng detected that there was something strange, “What’s the matter, Yunmo? In the past, whenever you heard that something was up with Yiling, you would always come back without any hesitation. However, your reaction today is quite strange.”

“No, it’s nothing. It’s just that I have a few things to deal with,” Jian Yunmo’s voice was quite downcast. It sounded as though he was holding himself responsible for some certain things.

“Don’t worry if it’s not convenient for you.”

“Let me think about it.”

Finally, Mo Shiyun had a chance to meet Qin Chuan again.

However, this time, it was on her bus ride back home.

On the bus, there was a man that was harassing a girl. Qin Chuan had immediately stood up for the girl.

As Mo Shiyun looked at him, she felt as though he was her only source of light during this period of time.

Lately, she had to deal with a lot of unhappy and frustrating things.

The only happy thing that had happened recently was her meeting with him.

When Qin Chuan got off the bus, Mo Shiyun followed him.

Qin Chuan quickly sensed that someone was following him. He turned around to look at Mo Shiyun.

For Qin Chuan, this was the first time that he saw Mo Shiyun.

Although he presented in Shenghua High School’s auditorium, he didn’t notice her last time. He had presented in front of a lot of students.

“Senior... Qin Chuan...”

This was the first time Mo Shiyun had taken the initiative to greet someone. She was quite shy. As a result, her cheeks began to blush.

Typically, she was natural in her speech and conduct in front of people.

However, for some strange reason today, her heart was beating unusually fast. She could no longer act naturally.

“Do you know me?” Qin Chuan asked. His voice was cold.

“Mhmm... You came to our school the other day to give a speech.”

“I’m sorry. I don’t think there’s a need for me to know you.”

Mo Shiyun’s deliberate attempt to talk to him made Qin Chuan feel uncomfortable.

He didn’t think that it was necessary for him to become acquainted with a high school girl.

Due to this reason, Qin Chuan turned around and walked away. His actions were decisive and resolute.

The only thing that Mo Shiyun could do was stand there in a daze as Qin Chuan walked away. Her heart sank.

Ah... Forget it. They weren’t destined to be together anyway.

Mo Shiyun thought.

Mo Shiyun was just about to turn around and leave when she suddenly saw the figure of Jian Yiling.

Mo Shiyun stopped abruptly.

It was really Jian Yiling. The person who was with Qin Chuan was Jian Yiling.
