Chapter 195 - Lanlan Is Innocent And Kind
"So you will stop coming to Cheng Mansion?"
Cheng Yang whispered with his head lowered.
Mo Roulan bit her lips nervously.
Why is it that she could sense the sadness in Cheng Yang's voice?
Her heart felt warm and she almost raised her hand to ruffle Cheng Yang's hair as she is used to do with Mo Chen but stopped at the last moment.
Mo Chen liked it when she did but Cheng Yang will not.
Cheng Yang, on the other hand, soon composed himself.
He raised his hand and looked completely like before.
"Can you come tomorrow also?"
He asked Mo Roulan with a straight face but somehow Mo Roulan could see the real Cheng Yang requesting her come tomorrow.
After a little bit of hesitation she nodded her head with a small smile on her lips.
"Great"
Cheng Yang whispered and then started to do the questions that Mo Roulan had asked him to do while Mo Roulan wondered why Cheng Yang was asking her to come tomorrow.

He Mansion
Inside the living room, Grandfather He sat on the sofa with a pout on his lips. His head was lowered as he hmphed coldly every few minutes.
A moment later, he slowly raised his head but when he saw the two cold and indifferent slabs sitting in front of him, he hmphed coldly again and lowered his head with a pout on his lips.
Standing behind Grandfather He, Butler Zhang shook his head seeing the stubbornness of the old man, and sighed lightly.
'His old man is too stubborn. He didn't know that sometimes bowing his head was also good for him.'
Suddenly Grandfather He stood up from the couch he was sitting on and announced loudly.
"I am going to my room."
"You are not going anywhere. Sit here silently."
He Jian's father, He Zhuang said coldly with his black eyes fixed on Grandfather He.
Grandfather He's eyes squinted in anger when he heard his son ordering him around. He immediately turned and pointed his fat finger on He Zhuang as he shouted
"How daring of you to talk to me like this, Stinky B****d. You can't control me. I can go anywhere I want."
Saying this, Grandfather He turned around to leave from there but before he could do so, He Zhuang's question stopped him amidst his steps.
"You can leave but not before telling that if you have found that girl before Jian why didn't you tell Jian about it?"
Standing behind his father, He Jian's blue eyes flashed with surprise when he heard his father's words.
A moment later, they were filled with anger and disbelief as he suddenly walked around the couch his father was sitting on and walked towards the frozen Grandfather He.
He Jian grabbed Grandfather He's arms as he lightly shook it and said in a voice full of disbelief.
"Old man…you knew that I was looking for her, right? But you still hid it from me."
He Jian was sure that his father would not lie and he was also sure that his grandfather could do this thing.
Guilt flashed across Grandfather He's eyes for a moment but it was only for a moment. Soon, he regained his stubbornness and jerked He Jian's hand away.
After that, he suddenly turned around and looked at his son with anger filled eyes as he shouted
"Don't you know why I did that? She is a simple girl from the town. All these riches will blind her eye. I was afraid that He Jian will also become blind like you for that girl and then years later, I will see him just like you …alone. I wanted to…"
"Father"
He Zhuang stood up suddenly and interrupted Grandfather He amidst his words.
His cold eyes fixed on his father were filled with warning.
That incident…it has been many years since anyone had talked about it.
It was not only He Zhuang who was stiff and angry at this moment but He Jian was also breathing angrily.
Butler Zhang shrunk his neck trying to reduce his presence in this cold atmosphere.
A moment later, everyone suddenly heard He Jian's voice.
"Lanlan is not like that. She is innocent and very kind."
He Jian said firmly as he looked at his grandfather's back.
Grandfather He, on the other hand, rolled his eyes and turned around to look at his grandson.
"Yes, I really saw your Lanlan's kindness and innocence that day. There can be nothing else that can make me believe her kindness and innocence. The way she threw that hundred Yuan note on my face only an innocent girl like your Lanlan can do that and she…"
"Grandfather…"
He Jian interrupted his grandfather coldly and Grandfather He sighed heavily at this.
He could see that his grandson has already been blinded by that girl.
He Jian ignored his Grandfather's pity-filled eyes on himself and said to his father.
"Dad you were asking me to bring Lanlan here. I will not do that. A place where she is not respected …my Lanlan will not go to that place."
Saying these words, He Jian left from there while He Zhuang pressed his temples.
He glanced at his father's back and then left without saying anything.
Standing in the living room alone, Grandfather He felt very lonely and he whispered to himself
"Did I really do something wrong?"
"Yes, Old man. You really did a great mistake this time."
Grandfather He looked at his butler with narrowed eyes who had said these words but Butler Zhang remained unmoved.
"Just think clearly. If that girl really wanted money from our family then wouldn't she have accepted the check you gave to her? Also, her logic was very right. How in that small town she could even know that our Young Master was a boy from such a big and powerful family? She saved him because she wanted to do that. And about her disrespecting you…wasn't it you who disrespected her first?"
With a kind smile on his face, Butler Zhang stepped forward and tried to enlighten his master.
"Old man, although it is true that a rotten apple can make other apples rotten also but it can also be possible that that girl never get in contact with any rotten apple till now. Maybe if you also take care of her like He Jian you can stop her from becoming one of those rotten apples and you can also protect your grandson. And I don't think that our Young Master is that stupid that he will suddenly start to care for someone without any reason. He must have seen something in that girl."
Saying this, Butler Zhang helped the dazed and silent Grandfather He in going to his room.
