The Devastated Shen Yiling
The Devastated Shen Yiling
It was actually easy for him.
After all, he had been taught so many things by He Jian in his past life.
However, still, he was a little nervous because, in the end, He Jian was his teacher.
"Brother Jian…"
Mo Chen tried to divert his attention.
He Jian stood up from the chair and hummed as he walked to pick up his laptop bag from the table and put his laptop inside the bag.
"That…are you okay? Why did you break this engagement?"
He Jian heard Mo Chen asking him.
He frowned as he put the laptop inside the laptop bag.
He turned around to look at Mo Chen. Seeing the young boy's eyes full of worry and concern, he sighed and walked toward him.
He remembered what Mo Chen had said to him last time. Even his behavior was a little unusual from the past. He could now accept Mo Roulan's doubt about Mo Chen being involved in something that he should not However, he had investigated a lot but never found anything suspicious.
Looking at his innocent face that didn't look that much innocent, he patted his head awkwardly making Mo Chen surprised and said
"It is adult's business. Don't put your attention on it. Focus on studies. Your sister has high expectations from you, Mo Chen."
On the other hand, Mo Chen lowered his head hiding the joy he was feeling inside his chest.
He had never thought that one day his Brother Jian would also pat his head. Though he had spent a lot of time with He Jian in his past life, most of the time he would teach him something and they would not talk about anything personal.
Even when Mo Chen was expecting praises from him, he never got that.
However, he still respected He Jian a lot. He Jian played a large part in his past life so that he could live past the traumatic things he had gone through in his past life.
Even in this life, He Jian saved him and not only him but his sister as well.
Mo Chen's eyes suddenly widened and he raised his head so swiftly that He Jian was startled by his actions.
Mo Chen ignored the surprise in He Jian's eyes and said
"Brother Jian, is it because of my sister? You like my sister, right? And that's why you don't want to marry someone else."
He Jian froze completely.
For a long time, he didn't say anything.
However, Mo Chen had already found his answer in his silence. He held He Jian's hand and asked him curiously.
"Did you tell that to my sister? Does she know?"
Mo Chen frowned. Actually, he had thought about it many times.
Now that he thought about it, in this life, many things changed even before he got his past life memories. His sister …she had suddenly brought some money and his mother had undergone surgery at the time something that had not happened in his past life.
Did his sister also…
"Ohhh…"
Mo Chen whispered to himself suddenly as he shook his head.
"Brother Jian…"
He raised his head and sighed heavily when he saw He Jian looking at him in confusion. Mo Chen's face suddenly went blank.
Blank from any sorrow or joy.
If his sister was really reborn, then she only knew what happened in the past life when she was alive …not whatever happened after she had…
But…
Mo Chen suddenly ran towards the door and said
"I am getting late for school."
Chu Feng who was standing outside was surprised to see him running out of the apartment. He wondered what happened suddenly.
However, no one could understand what was going on in Mo Chen's mind.
'If Jiejie was really reborn, then did I have the right to interfere in her and Brother Jian's life."
He had only come to know of whatever she went through a dairy that she had written and his heart had been in pain until he slept that night and was suddenly reborn again.
Then how much pain she had gone through!
True that Brother Jian didn't go through any less pain! But it didn't lessen his sister's pain …who was continuously trying to make amendments in this life.
His sister also had the right to decide who she wanted to choose.
Yes.
He would accept whoever she chooses. Whether it was Brother Jian or Cheng Yang.
Mo Chen's eyes were red by the time he stepped onto the school bus but his decision was firm.

The Shen Mansion was typically silent today.
Shi Fengju who stepped inside the living hall greeted Grandfather Shen and Shen Zhilan who didn't have good faces and were sitting on the sofa.
"Fengju…"
Shen Zhilan smiled forcefully as she stood up to welcome him.
"Hello, Auntie"
Shi Fengju greeted her politely.
After he had greeted Grandfather Shen as well, he immediately asked Shen Zhilan.
"Auntie, where is Yiling? Is she alright?"
Actually, he had wanted to come to see Shen Yiling at the night itself. However, he didn't want to disturb Shen Family at night.
It was too late so he decided to come in the morning.
But the whole night, he couldn't sleep properly because he was very worried about Shen Yiling.
"Yiling…"
Shen Zhilan sighed heavily when she heard her daughter's mention.
"Yiling is inside her room. She had not even stepped outside since we have come back. I tried a lot …but she is not opening the door."
Shi Fengju was startled at hearing all this.
His worry, as well as panic, increased.
Was she even fine inside the room?
He looked at Shen Zhilan wondering how she was even sitting here calmly! A sensible mother would try to know at any cost that her daughter was not alone after such a big incident and if she was, then she must be safe.
However, Shi Fengju didn't say anything to Shen Zhilan. He had actually heard and seen a lot of how she used to behave with Shen Weisheng in their childhood.
He immediately walked to Shen Yiling's room ignoring everything else.
"Yiling…"
Shi Fengju called out her name gently as he knocked on the door.
The door didn't open.
He tried two or three times more.
The worry and panic inside his heart increased more. And this time, he just decided to break the lock.
Shen Zhilan who heard the sound of something being hit constantly came there and asked him what he was doing. Grandfather Shen followed his daughter. Wang Weimin had to go to the company to handle some important matters so he was not there.
"Fengju, what are you doing?"
"Auntie, Yiling is not opening the door at all. I am worried if she is even alright inside."
Shi Fengju explained as he continued to hit the lock of the door with the rod of the lamp he had picked from somewhere.
"But…"
Shen Zhilan frowned not finding it reasonable. However, Grandfather Shen suddenly thought that it could be possible and said immediately.
"Yes, he is right. What if Yiling does something to herself. We should have thought of it."
"But Father…"
Shen Zhilan tried to stop them. However, Grandfather Shen signed her to stay silent and even called the servants to help Shi Fengju.
No one knew but Shen Zhilan was also right at her own place.
Who could know Shen Yiling better than her? She knew that her daughter was like her. They were the kind of people who would not harm themselves …especially when it could not bring any benefit …like right now.
If Shen Yiling harmed herself, then she would only get pain and a scar on her body that she would never want in any situation so why would she do that!
And Shen Zhilan also knew that Shen Yiling just needed time to accept that He Jian had really rejected her. And then her daughter would be fine in a few days.
She just wished that she would forget He Jian.
Shen Zhilan looked at Shi Fengju who had finally broken the lock.
According to her, Shi Fengju was also a good choice for her daughter. He seemed to be totally smitten by her and Shi family business was also no less profitable. Though they were less influential than He family, at least Shen Yiling would stay happy with him.
On the other hand, Shi Fengju who had finally broken the lock immediately opened the door and stepped inside the room.
Grandfather Shen and Shen Zhilan followed in his footsteps.
The three of them were shocked when they saw how devasted the room looked.
But what shocked them more was the more devasted Shen Yiling who was sitting on the floor against the bed.
Who knew for how long she had been sitting like that!
It was after a long time, Shen Yiling noticed that someone was inside the room. She raised her head and looked at the three people inside the room.
However, the person whose name she called out was
"Brother Fengju"
