After having dinner, Mu Tianen accompanied her parents for a while before returning to her room.

After coming out of the shower, Mu Tianen turned on her computer. She had wanted Leng Yan to check on Liu Yiran for her, but after thinking about it, she decided to do it herself.

Mu Tianen typed on the keyboard, and the computer screen flashed quickly. In less than ten seconds, she opened the file of Liu Yiran at Haili University, with every single detail.

Mu Tianen looked at it very carefully, but she couldn't find anything after looking at it twice.

Liu Yiran was an orphan who had grown up in an orphanage. She was smart and capable. After studying in college with a scholarship, she even got the opportunity to go abroad. Then, she returned to her country and went back to her alma mater to teach.

It was very ordinary.

Mu Tianen felt that she was worrying too much. She was also studying in Haili, so it was normal for her to know her Eldest Senior Brother and her brother.

She slumped back in her chair and stared at the ceiling in a daze.

The phone on the side vibrated. Mu Tianen sat up straight and picked it up, "Eldest Senior Brother."

As Mu Tianen picked up her phone, she typed on the keyboard and quickly opened a website with an introduction to the auction, "When will the third senior brother arrive?"

After hanging up the phone, Mu Tianen looked at the auction information carefully. Then, she opened her account, leaned in, clicked it, and muttered, "It should be enough."

On Saturday evening, Mu Tianheng came to the restaurant in casual clothes. He was not as fierce and serious as when he was at work. Instead, he had the pride and elegance of a noble gentleman.

As soon as he got out of the car and handed the key to the doorman, someone came up to him, "Tianheng."

Mu Tianheng raised his head and smiled, "Class monitor, long time no see."

Zhou He was slightly excited as he stepped forward and extended his hand towards him, "Long time no see."

Mu Tianheng reached out and shook his hand.

"I've been following you recently. And I've earned a lot." Zhou He's simple and honest face was full of smiles.

Mu Tianheng asked with a smile, "Is everyone here?"

"Those who promised to come are all here. No, Yiran is not here. I came out to wait for you," Zhou He turned his gaze to the main road and said, "Speak of Yiran. She is here."

Mu Tianheng did not look away, but because of Zhou He, he stopped to wait out of courtesy and took out his mobile phone to send a message to Feng Lan.

The beautiful Liu Yiran said apologetically, "Sorry, the car is broken and I am late."

Zhou He waved his hand, "You're not late. We arrived early. Let's go in."

Liu Yiran took two more steps and caught up with Mu Tianheng. She said, "Tianheng."

Mu Tianheng put away his phone and looked at Liu Yiran, nodding his head as a greeting.

They went into the private room where there were many people. The moment Mu Tianheng entered, everyone's gazes gathered on him. They all stood up and enthusiastically stepped forward to shake his hands. This was comparable to the meeting between celebrities and fans.

Mu Tianheng was already used to this and greeted them. He had already expected it. Although it was a gathering, they were looking for business opportunities.

Anyone who could graduate from Haili would not lead a bad life.

Liu Yiran was also very popular. She glanced at Mu Tianheng from time to time out of the corner of her eye.

When they almost finished chatting, Zhou He said loudly, "Let's eat while talking."

There was an empty seat on the thirty-five large tables. Zhou He was puzzled. Everyone had come. Why was there an empty seat?

"I saved it for a friend who hasn't come," said Mu Tianheng.

It was because Feng Lan agreed to come that he came. He rarely came to class gatherings these years.

All of a sudden, everyone was curious. On this occasion, bringing friends meant bringing a family member. Quite a few people brought companions with them.

"Tianheng, do you want to go out to pick up your girlfriend? If you don't wait for her, she will be angry."

"Yes, you will have more pocket money after going home."

"Tianheng, when will you treat me to your wedding? Tell me in advance, at least give me time to save money. Recently, my wife is strict with pocket money."

Mu Tianheng listened with a smile. The word "girlfriend" was very pleasing to the ear. It was just that Feng Lan couldn't hear it for the time being. So he was still very interested and replied, "I will invite everyone when the time comes, but it is not the time yet."

When hearing this, Liu Yiran raised her wine glass and drank it all in one gulp. However. But the bitterness in her throat became even stronger. She lowered her thick eyelashes to hide the shock and pain that rose in her eyes.

Zhou He looked at Mu Tianheng, "Shall we wait a little longer before serving the dishes?"

"No need, she might be late. Let's serve the dishes."

Just now, Feng Lan sent a message saying that she had to record another song.

Since Mu Tianheng had already spoken, Zhou He then asked someone to serve the dishes.

Half an hour later, Mu Tianheng received a message from Feng Lan and got up to leave.

Having been drinking wine, Liu Yiran was a little dizzy. She had gone out earlier than Mu Tianheng to get some fresh air. She hadn't gone far either. When seeing Mu Tianheng came out from the corridor outside the room, she couldn't help but call out to him, "Tianheng."

Because she was drunk, her voice was even more charming and seductive, but it was the same in Mu Tianheng's ears. He was still indifferent, "What's wrong?"

Under the stimulation of alcohol, Liu Yiran finally found a way to vent her suppressing emotions, "I have something to tell you."

Liu Yiran walked towards Mu Tianheng.

Mu Tianheng wanted to rush to pick up Feng Lan, but he held back his patience and waited. He watched Liu Yiran approach indifferently and did not intend to go up to help her, "What is it?"

Liu Yiran had different emotions in her eyes. There were love, bitterness, and even extreme affection as she looked at Mu Tianheng's face, "Tianheng, I like you. I came back to teach because I wanted to see you. When seeing you at Haili's campus, I knew I had fallen for you."

"You like to drink black coffee. You don't like to eat smelly food. You like to walk around the lake after lunch. I will do all this. I just want to be closer to you."

Mu Tianheng was still expressionless, as if he was an outsider watching a show, "I already have a girlfriend."

This sentence was like a big iron rod hitting Liu Yiran's heart. It shook her so much that she could not stand up. She staggered two steps and her face, which was originally ruddy because of the wine, turned white.

She had already expected it earlier, but since Mu Tianheng did not say it, she took the opportunity to say it out loud.

She thought, after confessing, perhaps he could change his mind. It was enough for her.

"Tianheng, you are still as indifferent as ever. Why? Am I not good? I went abroad to make myself better."

Liu Yiran pleaded as she reached out to touch Mu Tianheng, but the latter did not respond. At the same time, he quickly took a step back, "You crossed the line."

He quickly turned around and was about to leave when seeing Feng Lan.

Feng Lan came in when not seeing Mu Tianheng at the door, but she did not expect to hear such a story and see such a sad scene.

"Ah Lan." Mu Tianheng's cold and indifferent expression finally changed. He was anxious and worried.

He didn't know why he suddenly felt this way, or perhaps it was because Feng Lan's eyes were as calm as a frozen lake's surface, without any emotion, as if she had returned to the time when she was perfunctory to him before.

Liu Yiran looked forward and saw a woman wearing a light orange mask. What caught her attention the most was that she used a jade hairpin to tie up her hair. Even if she could not see her entire face, she still exuded an elegant and noble temperament.

It was a woman whose temperament was opposite to hers.

Mu Tianheng explained as he walked up to Feng Lan, with his gentle face looking anxious, "Ah Lan, that's my classmate,"

Feng Lan's current mood was very complicated. Ever since she promised Mu Tianheng to attend his classmate gathering with him, she had given him a chance. She was very happy, with expectations for the future.

However, when walking in and hearing the woman's affectionate confession to Mu Tianheng, she felt the love between her and Mu Tianheng was a little illusory at that moment. This feeling of love was like a layer of fog. It was unknown when the fog would dissipate and then disappear.

Her heart wavered. She was not sure how deep her love for Mu Tianheng was.

Moreover, she had never done anything similar to what the woman had done. She needed to calm down and think about it again.

Feng Lan's eyes slowly met Mu Tianheng's. Seeing his anxiety, she was stunned, "Tianheng, I won't go in. I'm here to tell you that I'm going abroad to attend an award ceremony. The car is still waiting outside."

She had already changed her ticket. She wanted to wait for Mu Tianheng to finish his class gathering before going.

Looking into Feng Lan's eyes, Mu Tianheng was very determined. This was not the first time he had encountered such a situation. He could explain it. In the past, he had not even explained anything. His ex-girlfriend had said that she did not need his explanation and believed him.

However, when meeting those eyes, he stuck his words in his throat.

Moreover, he knew that no matter what he explained, Feng Lan would not listen to him. She would not misunderstand anything, but her thoughts had changed. From the day he met her, he knew how determined she was.

"Alright, I'll send you off."

Feng Lan nodded and turned to leave. From the beginning to the end, she did not even look at the woman who confessed to Mu Tianheng. It was not because she looked down on her, but because she could not be as bold as her.

Liu Yiran watched them walk into the elevator. She laughed at herself. Although standing here just now, she was like a clown.

In an instant, Liu Yiran's expression changed again, looking cold and fierce.

And the two people in the elevator were also quiet.

Feng Lan pursed her red lips tightly under the mask, suppressing her emotions.

Mu Tianheng's gaze had always been on Feng Lan. Although she did not take off her mask, he could still tell that she had come with makeup. This proved that she had been looking forward to it before coming.

Thinking of this, the two hands in his pocket also clenched slightly.

At the entrance, Feng Lan got into the car. Just as the car door was about to close, Mu Tianheng blocked it with his hand, "Ah Lan, I know you are in a mess right now. Liu Yiran and I just met after we graduated. I also know that you are not jealous. I can't guess why you suddenly changed your attitude. But Ah Lan, I need your trust."

Mu Tianheng said, taking two steps back, "I'll wait for you to come back."

The car door slowly closed. Because the car window was covered with a film, only Feng Lan could see Mu Tianheng standing outside, looking a little lonely.

Her heart tightened as if being grabbed by an invisible hand. Feng Lan forced herself not to look at Mu Tianheng.

She admitted that she was cowardly in the face of feelings and was not as brave as her Little Junior Sister.

Every step she took was heart-wrenching. She did not completely open her heart to accept Mu Tianheng.

Feng Lan closed her eyes and hid the pain inside.
