Shen Ruoyi knew that Lin Muan was a potential boyfriend. But, he did not seem to be obeying his elders like he should be.

Ill buy some delicious desserts and go visit the Lin family tomorrow.

Im relieved now that youve regained your senses. Cen Suyu did not worry much about her daughter now.

In truth, Shen Ruoyi had not regained her senses. But, she was only frightened by how Sheng Xiao abused the girls.

She just wanted to forget about Sheng Xiao given that she had humiliated herself in front of the Sheng family. The sooner the better.

So, Shen Ruoyi bought the desserts and went to visit the Lin family the next morning. At that moment, Lin Muan was staying in his office. Lu Qianqian was there too. He said to her, Try to imitate my signature. I still have two thousand books which I need to sign here.

Lu Qianqian put her hands around herself and shook her head. Why do the readers want to buy your books? What for? You even fake the signature

I need to use them tonight. Two thousand of them. Ill never manage to sign all of them even if I break my hand.

Why dont you sign only a word? Its better than asking somebody to sign for you even if youre insincere!

Lin Muan looked at the person who sneered in front of him. He shook his head. Then, go and take off your clothes

What a pervert

Take off your coat so that you could help me to water my plants. Certainly, you dont want to be soaked. Lin Muan turned around and looked at Lu Qianqian. He smiled wickedly. Or, do you want to get wet?

Lu Qianqian rolled her eyes at him. Im telling you now. I have no feelings for you. Im not even interested even if you stand naked in front of me.

Youve said what a man should say.

I dont know how to take care of plants. You deserve it if I kill them

Lin Muan smiled and let her be. He focused his attention on signing the books in front of him. He signed only a word and certainly it was much better this way. He would then ask his assistant to prepare two thousand small gifts as gifts of apology.

Then, he took a glance at Lu Qianqian. She appeared just like a young girl from a rich family when she was quiet. But, it soon became like a battlefield whenever she opened her mouth and started talking.

Lin Muan turned his attention back to his work. But, he received a call from Shen Ruoyi at that time.

Muan, I bought you some desserts. But, I dont know where you are right now. Am I bothering you?

Lin Muan was stunned for a short while. He had made his stand clear when he had gone to the hospital the other day. Did he not?

Im sorry, Miss Ruo. I have another appointment. Ill come and visit your family to apologize about it another day. Lin Muan had always maintained a good distance from the women whom he did not like. He would never give them any chance or wrong impression.

It was not as simple as that, falling in love with somebody. You choose to be with another person because you like them instead of picking anyone randomly.

Okay

Shen Ruoyi hung up the phone. Lin Muan fell into deep thought. In fact, Shen Ruoyi had tried her best to make him fall in love with Mu Qiqi before. Why did she turn to show affection for him now? It was definitely not a good sign.

Lu Qianqian smiled icily when she noticed that he was in a daze after the call. If you have another appointment, just go ahead.

Do you want me to go?

What does it have to do with me? Lu Qianqian did not even look up. She focused her entire attention on the plants before her.

This little feisty one was indeed one of a kind.

It seemed like he needed to think of a way to get rid of Shen Ruoyi.

Shen Ruoyi did not know that she was disliked by Lin Muan from the Lin family after she had received an unpleasant result in her efforts to get near to Sheng Xiao.

Certainly, he needed to know why Shen Ruoyi had been admitted into the hospital and also the reason why her attitude toward him had changed so drastically all of a sudden. Hence, he could think of a solution to get rid of her.

Mu Qiqi might be able to clarify his doubts. But given Mu Qiqis personality, she would never bad-mouth others. Then, he had no choice but to call the Crown Prince and ask him about it.

He had promised to meet Lu Qianqian before and Sheng Xiao owned him for that. Now, he could ask the Crown Prince to return the favor.

***

So, Lin Muan picked up his phone again and called Sheng Xiao in front of Lu Qianqian. Crown Prince, Ill take up only a minute. I have something that I want to ask you about.

Im listening. Sheng Xiao raised his eyebrow slightly. He put down the contract in his hand.

Im sure you know the reason Shen Ruoyi was admitted to the hospital given your relationship with Qiqi.

She was beaten up by Grandpa Shen.

Why?

Its because she sneaked into my office and my mom bumped into her there.

Fine, I understand it now. Lin Muan soon understood everything. It was quite obvious. Shen Ruoyi failed in pursuing after Sheng Xiao. Her little secret was exposed to Grandpa Shen and she was even beaten up for that. It was the same case with Mu Qiqi, falling for ones uncle. But, Qiqis ending was different. If thats the case, I know what I need to do now. Crown Prince, thank you.

Lu Qianqian was curious when she heard them talking about Shen Ruoyi. How is Shen Ruoyi related to the Crown Prince?

Dont worry. Crown Prince adores Qiqi deeply. But, the one who is in trouble now is me. However, I have a way to resolve it.

Shen Ruoyi had been humiliated in front of the Sheng family. How dare she turn around and fawn on him instead? Did he look like a second choice to her?

Its better that way!

If the Crown Prince has another woman out there, what are you going to do?

Ill ask Qiqi to abandon him Lu Qianqian gave a firm reply to Lin Muan. Youre such a disloyal man. You wont know how pathetic and frightening it is to love a person deeply. The Crown Prince is Qiqis first love.

She sounded like Qiqi was not Sheng Xiaos first love. But, no one knew about it.

Go and say that to the Crown Prince

Moreover, dont ask me out if theres something going on between you and Shen Ruoyi. I hate this kind of man the most.

But, Lin Muan smiled after he heard what Lu Qianqian had said. If thats the case, do you think that theres something going on between us?

Yes, were enemies. Are you satisfied with this answer?

This man always tried his best to seduce the women

Lin Muan did not argue with Lu Qianqian anymore. He was thinking of how to use a rather interesting way to describe that incident to his grandpa after he went home.

***

Lu Qianqian stayed for an entire afternoon there in Lin Muan office. She planned to ask Mu Qiqi out for a meal later.

It was because she was rather interested in Shen Ruoyi.

Mu Qiqi left the university and went to meet Lu Qianqian immediately. Certainly, she knew that there was somebody else stalking her.

Qiqi, I went to Lin Muans office just now. I heard him calling the Crown Prince, asking him about Shen Ruoyi. How is the Crown Prince related to Shen Ruoyi?

Mu Qiqi smiled. She made no reply but chided her, When did you become so close to Lin Muan?

Im worried about you!

You dont have to worry about me. Ill tell you everything slowly. Then, Mu Qiqi told her everything while pouring a cup of fruit tea for Lu Qianqian.

***

At that moment, Lin Muan reached his home. He went over to his grandpa when he saw him. He said to his grandpa, Grandpa

Miss Shen came to visit you today but you were not around

Grandpa, I heard some rumors about her. Im not sure whether I should tell you about them.
