Mo Kun turned and stared at Yan w.a.n.gchuan and his face showed his impatience at the disturbance.

Yan w.a.n.gchuan tried to calm himself down. However, his eyes were filled with sadness

Mo Kun asked him sharply, "Who are you looking for? Why did you choose to come here now? Are you in the wrong ward?"

Man Shahua took a step forward, gave Long Xi an affectionate wave, smiled and said, "Xiao Xi, we are here to visit your grandmother. Oh, Lord Mo Kun, you are here, too. I was looking for you!"

Today, she was dressed s.e.xily. Her hair was dyed a chestnut color and in big wavy curls. Her tender face was made up exquisitely, which made her looked older than her actual age and added to the attraction.

She seemed to be impervious to the cold and had on lots of jewellery. She wore a low-cut black dress, which was studded with pearls. She deliberately bared half of her b.r.e.a.s.t.s, her shoulders, slender waist and long legs. Her overall look was dazzling. This dress was supposedly a limited item of a famous brand and worth around 100,000 yuan! However, to Long Xi, from a fas.h.i.+on designer's point of view, she felt that her overall look was too gaudy. She did not look like a lady, but instead like a voluptuous wh.o.r.e who was wearing 100,000 yuan worth of banknotes on her body. She should be in a nightclub!

Strictly speaking, Man Shahua was not a genteel lady, but an ill-bred daughter of an upstart who had acquired wealth through speculation on stocks.

Long Xi was wearing a light rose-gold gauze skirt. The color was unique and eye-catching. The gauze fabric was soft, comfortable and light. It had a dreamlike quality and seemed to be full of fairy spirit.

The knee-length skirt was layered and circular in shape. There were three-dimensional deep rose-gold vividly coloured b.u.t.terflies made of PVC material on the skirt. They were like a group of elves! This unique skirt was inspired by Long Xi's favorite b.u.t.terflies and the spiral plants in the movie Avatar!

She had designed and sewn the skirt herself. In terms of dress taste alone, Long Xi had more fas.h.i.+on sense than Man Shahua.!

Mo Kun calmly faced Man Shahua, who looked so glad to see him and asked her casually, "Looking for me? Do I know you at all?"

Man Shahua rarely encountered such treatment from men and she felt she had just suffered a loss of dignity after being spoken to in that manner. She subconsciously held Yan w.a.n.gchuan's arm and said, "In fact, Chuanchuan is here for Xiao Xi and he brought flowers for a purpose. They both grew up together and there are so many things about them that we don't know about."

She said that to arouse Mo Kun's jealousy.

Yan w.a.n.gchuan suddenly shook off Man Shahua's arm and turned away without saying a word.

"Brother w.a.n.gchuan!" Long Xi ran after him. She was afraid of what Yan w.a.n.gchuan would do next.

She ran to the door, but was stopped by Man Shahua.

Mansa had a smirk on her face, which angered Long Xi and she said, "Let me go!"

There were a lot of people coming and going along the corridor of the hospital.

Yan w.a.n.gchuan collided with a nurse who was in a hurry. He couldn't keep his balance and almost fell to the ground.

At this time, a pair of strong hands caught him in time and he said subconsciously, "Thank you...oh it's you?" He was startled when he saw it was Mo Kun, his love rival, who held him up.

"How can you walk without looking?" Mo Kun reproached him. He felt very unhappy when he heard Long Xi calling him "Brother w.a.n.gchuan."

He didn't know why. When he saw Man Shahua grabbing Long Xi and Long Xi looking so worried, helpless and anxious, he felt his heart melting. Thus he went out instead of Long Xi.

He knew that should anything happen to Yan w.a.n.gchuan, Long Xi would be guilt ridden for a lifetime.

He said to Yan w.a.n.gchuan, "Yan w.a.n.gchuan, let's find a place to talk openly and honestly, man to man. How about that?"

Yan w.a.n.gchuan said ruefully, "It's my fault! Once I had someone who loved me sincerely, who is right in front of me, but I did not cherish it. I betrayed her instead! If G.o.d could give me another chance, I would say to her, 'Xiaolongnv, I love you!'"

This statement was a tribute to Zhou Xingchi's cla.s.sic movie A Chinese Odyssey, and Long Xi trembled when she heard it.

Once, she had dreamed of hearing Yan w.a.n.gchuan's profession of love for her! Why did he have to tell her that she should accept the love of another person? She had a sentence in her heart, "Oh Fate. Are you playing a trick me?" but she didn't know if she should say it.

Man Shahua gritted her teeth in anger and shouted at Yan w.a.n.gchuan, "Yan w.a.n.gchuan, you are a brave man! Listen, I, Man Shahua, am officially breaking up with you today! I am the one that dumped you! Hum, how long can you survive without my protection?"

She stared at the stunned Longxi, a vicious sneer curling up at the corner of her mouth. Wearing gla.s.s-like high-heeled shoes with heels that were least 10 inches high, she sashayed off, much like a swaying willow and "chuckled" in the direction of Mo Kun. She intentionally stood beside him for a few seconds.

Mo Kun did not even look at her. She walked past him, feeling disappointed and frustrated.

Mo Kun waited for the sound of her high heels to die down before he said to Yan w.a.n.gchuan, "I will give Long Xi happiness and all the best things in the world. What can you give her?"

Yan w.a.n.gchuan, with tears in his eyes, said, "Someday, someday..."

Elder Mo Kun smiled and said, "Someday? When exactly?"

Yan w.a.n.gchuan was speechless. Indeed, he had nothing now. What could he give Long Xi? Mo Kun was super-capable and intelligent. And he heard that Mo Kun was an inventor. How could he ever compare with Mo Kun?

He told himself that one day he would be able to compete with Mo Kun!

He went back to Long Xi, stooped and carefully picked up the sunflowers from the gla.s.s shards and said to Long Xi, "Xiaolongnv, I bought these sunflowers especially for you. Didn't you use to like Van Gogh's Sunflowers? Can you take them and grow them?"

Long Xi couldn't bear to watch him cry. She nodded and took the sunflowers with both hands.

Yan w.a.n.gchuan, with a sad, tearful smile, said, "Halloween is on October 30, which is also my birthday. Do you still remember that?"

Long Xi nodded again. Of course, she did! They used to celebrate birthdays together every year!

Mo Kun clenched his fists. What sort of affection did Long Xi and Yan w.a.n.gchuan share when they grew up together? He felt angry!

Yan w.a.n.gchuan said in a pleading tone, "I heard that the school will be having a Halloween party that night. Can you be my partner? It will be like a birthday gift for me, okay? I beg you!""

Long Xi hesitated.

She knew that Mo Kun would be angry if she promised to go. His envy could be compared with the sourness of an old vinegar troll and vinegar essence!

But if she refused, Yan w.a.n.gchuan's heart would surely break like that painted gla.s.s vase.

She was really in a dilemma now!

Without waiting for her to answer, Mo Kun replied quickly. "No, even if she went to the dance, the partner must be me."

Yan w.a.n.gchuan looked at Long Xi expectantly.

Long Xi thought that deep pain was worse than slight pain. Since she had accepted Mo Kun's love and had Mo Kun in her heart, she should not give Yan w.a.n.gchuan false hopes, which was much crueler than not giving him hope!

She gritted her teeth and said, "Brother w.a.n.gchuan, I'm sorry, I have promised Brother Mo Kun to be his girlfriend. In the future, I can only regard you as my brother. You will surely find a better girl than me."

When Mo Kun heard Long Xi's words, he was relieved and his heart was filled with joy. Even his eyes and eyebrows reflected his feelings.

In stark contrast to him, Yan w.a.n.gchuan's eyes were pools of grief, an image that burned deeply into Long Xi's heart.

After a long time, Yan w.a.n.gchuan said, "Xiaolongnv, you misunderstood me. I am not asking you to be my girlfriend!"
