Lu Yunfan nodded. “I know! Don’t worry, and just go! I’m no longer a child……”


  Ever since she was young, Lu Yunfan had been the one who caused trouble for Lu Yunhang. Worrying about her had become Lu Yunhang’s habit for many years.

  “Remember to call Mom and Dad. Don’t forget about them just because you’re too focused on chasing boys. Call me if you have any difficulties!”


  “Got it, got it! Brother, you’re really wearisome! How many times have you said that to me?” Lu Yunfan was secretly delighted. Now that she had a boyfriend, she had someone protecting her in Haicheng. There was no need to trouble her brother anymore……

  Lin Chen only left after seeing Lu Yunfan enter the gallery. He had just driven the car 50 meters away when he received Liang Mulan’s call.

  Lin Chen answered the call. “Mom……”


  “What’s wrong with you? Didn’t you say you weren’t going to the gallery’s opening? Why did I see your car there? Who’s the young lady in the front passenger seat?”


  Liang Mulan’s question was like a string of bullets. From her tone of voice, one could tell she was angry.

  “How did you know I went to the gallery?” Lin Chen was surprised.

  Liang Mulan initially didn’t plan to go to the art gallery, but later, her friend called and asked her out for a meal. The location of the restaurant was just opposite the art gallery!

  Hence, Liang Mulan packed up. On the way over, she asked the driver to drive the car to the art gallery first. However, she hesitated whether she should go in once she arrived at the entrance. On the one hand, she thought it would be okay to just go in and take a look at the paintings because she didn’t have any designs in her heart towards Miss Jian. But on the other hand, she was also worried that Miss Jian would overthink.

  When Liang Mulan and her friends came out of the restaurant after lunch, she saw Lin Chen’s car parked on the opposite side of the road. Then, a young lady got out of its front passenger seat.

  That young lady wasn’t Miss Gao, much less Miss Jian. At that time, Liang Mulan felt a headache was coming. Her mind had already run wild, imagining her son had suddenly transformed into a scumbag who played around with women, just like his father when he was young.

  “You tell me first! Who is the young lady who got out of your car?” Liang Mulan sounded furious. “You’re dating Miss Gao, so how can you involve yourself with other girls? You even sent another girl over to Miss Jian’s art gallery. What are you doing, Lin Chen!”


  Liang Mulan rarely called Lin Chen by his full name.

  “Mom, I think you’re mistaken,” When Lin Chen heard the words “Miss Jian’s gallery”, he knew Liang Mulan had misunderstood something.

  “What am I mistaken about? I saw your car parked at the entrance of the art gallery with my own eyes. Are you saying I can’t even recognize your car?” Liang Mulan’s chest heaved up and down violently.

  “Let’s talk when I get back home tonight! I have to go back to the company now, and I’m driving……”


  There were still a bunch of things waiting for Lin Chen to take care of at work.

  Before Liang Mulan was done with her words, she was worried that it wouldn’t be safe to call her son on the way. She hung up the phone and asked the driver to drive to Lin Corporation.

  On the way back to the company, Lin Chen called Gao Jingjie and explained the situation.

  Gao Jingjie was surprised, but she was reasonable enough to tell her family that she and Lin Chen were not suitable for each other.

  After all, Gao Jingjie also had someone she liked. She knew the feeling of wanting to be with the girl she liked.

  “Congratulations!” Gao Jingjie congratulated Lin Chen. “Don’t forget to invite me to your wedding when it’s time!”


  “Okay……” Lin Chen agreed.

  After hanging up the call, Lin Chen finally felt relieved.

  Not long after he returned to the office, Liang Mulan arrived in a huff.

  Seeing Liang Mulan’s grim expression, Lin Chen’s secretary didn’t even go in to deliver the coffee.

  Lin Chen looked up at Liang Mulan, who had casually tossed her handbag onto the coffee table and was sitting on the sofa with her arms crossed. He closed the pen cap in his hand and got up to walk towards Liang Mulan.

  “Why are you here?” Lin Chen asked.

  “Tell me what exactly is going on!” Liang Mulan glared at Lin Chen. “If you dare play with a girl’s feelings, I won’t spare you, although you’re my son!”


  Liang Mulan had experienced it herself. Moreover, she also had two daughters. If her own daughter were deceived and played around by her boyfriend or husband like this, Liang Mulan would probably be so angry that she would kill them.

  She would never allow her son to do this.

  Lin Chen had initially planned to wait one month before telling Liang Mulan about his relationship with Lu Yunfan. He didn’t want to tell her before the relationship was confirmed, lest Liang Mulan was happy for nothing. Unexpectedly, Liang Mulan saw it today……

  Since she had already seen it, Lin Chen didn’t hide it anymore.

  He sat down opposite Liang Mulan and said, “Miss Gao and I aren’t suitable for each other…… so we’ve already separated.”


  Lin Chen didn’t reveal Gao Jingjie’s matter to Liang Mulan. Since they were partners in the past, the least he could do as a person with integrity is to keep her secrets for her.

  “Separated?” Liang Mulan frowned. “When? Didn’t you two just go on a date?”


  Lin Chen nodded. “That’s right. After our last date, we realized that our personalities weren’t compatible, so we broke up peacefully to cut our losses.”


  “Cut your losses?” Liang Mulan was almost angered to the point of laughter by Lin Chen. “Do you think this is business? You even stopped the damage in time.”


  Lin Chen smiled and continued to say to Liang Mulan, “The lady you saw getting out of my car today is Lu Yunfan…… She’s the daughter of the Lu family from Wei City. She’s relatively young and is very popular in everything she does. She wholeheartedly wants to be with me, so I agreed to date her for one-month. Consider this as fulfilling the young lady’s wish. After one month, if she realizes that I’m different from the boyfriend she imagined, we would naturally part.”


  Liang Mulan looked at Lin Chen in surprise……

  “I think you are mistaken. Lu Yunfan was the one who sent you the invitation to her art gallery’s opening. As for Miss Jian, she’s still young and quite scheming. There’s definitely no possibility between us,” Lin Chen explained to Liang Mulan in detail.

  After Lin Chen explained everything to Liang Mulan, Liang Mulan finally understood what was going on.

  Liang Mulan didn’t know much about Miss Jian’s scheme, but…… that lady was filial to Liang Mulan.

  “So you’re saying…… Miss Lu wrote the pretty and meticulously prepared invitation card?” Liang Mulan was now a little intrigued by Lu Yunfan.

  Lin Chen nodded. “That gallery is hers. The lady you saw getting out of my car today was her……”


  “Then…… Nuan Nuan’s friend and the person Xiao Ran saw here to have lunch with you was this Miss Lu?” Liang Mulan suddenly realized that she had made a mistake.

  Lin Chen nodded. “Yes, it’s her.”
