An Qing Ran looked at her father's concerned eyes. She was so happy at that moment. In her previous life, she could only dream about this. She turned her head to hide the tears suddenly falling.

She didn't know what would happen in the future, but she was sure of one thing! She must hold on to this happiness!

When they were finally done with their meal. An Zhong Tao watched the servants cleaning up the table; drinking tea. Lian Jin Yu sat next to him quietly, also sipping tea and looking peaceful.

But An Qing Ran noticed her mother's fingers slightly trembling. She watched these two awkward people and smiled in her heart. These two people were absolutely not at ease.

Her father, for so many years, didn't even visit the East Warm Pavillion. Qing Ran couldn't imagine how her mother survived.

Thinking about this now, she understood that her mother had put all her hopes on her. However, in her previous life, she didn't have a close relations.h.i.+p with her mother. After that incident, she even abandoned her mother!

With all this in mind she yawned and said to her parents:

"Father, mother, you should rest early, this daughter … will retire."

Qing Ran looked tactfully at Lian Mu Han and Dong Fang Jin after she addressed her parents. The two young men stood and bade farewell to their host before following her. The trio left the courtyard.

Once outside, An Qing Ran picked up her heavy skirts and walked toward her own courtyard.

But, Lian Mu Han suddenly called after her.

"BiaoMei! Wait a minute!"

An Qing Ran stopped and looked at her cousin , in her eyes now, he looked like a big boy. Still seeing him so happy she was happy as well!

"What is the matter?" she asked.

Under the moonlight, the two teenagers in front of her looked very elegant though An Qing Ran. When she noticed the smile on Dong Fang Jin she changed her mind. These two were just little devils!

"BiaoMei, your plan was really good! Great even!" Lian Mu Han began

An Qing Ran played the innocent, putting an amazed look on her face she said:

"You ah… what do you mean? I can't understand what you said."

She thought that her moves today were well hidden. What did Lian Mu Han know?

"Big aunt obviously didn't know about those leftovers." Lian Mu Han bent a little and whispered next to Qing Ran's ear.

An Qing Ran raised an eyebrow:

"Who would Know then?"

Lian Mu Han straightened his body and smiled.

"Well since my uncle thinks it is her, it can only be her!"

Dong Fang Jin looked at An Qing Ran's beautiful little face. A strange smile floating on his lips.

"The Di daughter of An Fu is really different."

Qing Ran looked at him and answered

"The Tai Zi  of our Yunqi is also very different! To stand above the ma.s.ses".

"I agreed!" replied Dong Fang Jin before turning to the Lian Mu Han.

"Say. Will those girls be waiting for us?"

Lian Mu Han raised an eyebrow at his words "It should be…"

"What are we waiting for then?" said Dong FangJin gave the young girl a meaningfully smile before turning to leave.

Looking at the two departing figures disappearing in the night, An Qing Ran released a long sight of relief. These two devils were really smart!

In the future, she must be more careful. An Qing Ran turned to look at the lights of the East Warm Pavilion a smile on her face.

No matter what she hoped things were going well. Thinking up to there, she walked cheerfully to her courtyard, her footsteps light.
