If she accepted her past and moved forward, eventually she would be the happiest person in this world.
Mu Lan's eyes were carrying warmth. All her fear, hatred and negative thoughts were vanished into the thin air. She suddenly felt lighter.
"Meeting you was a fate. God must have wanted me to meet you today." Mu Lan looked at the man beside her.
Arthur smiled and said nothing.
"How is you wife?" Mu Lan asked.
"Clara is alright. She became a painter. She is good at this. Also, she is three months pregnant now. It's twins." Arthur grinned.
"Wow! Really? Congratulation!" Mu Lan was genuinely happy for them.
"Thank you. We still pray for you to God, you know. We will never forget what you gave us." Arthur said.
"We did everything for ourselves. If our selfishness changed your life for better, than it is indeed a miracle." Mu Lan couldn't help but smile.
"You are too modest." Arthur stood up from the ground and said, "You became popular in our school. I look forward to work with you."
Mu Lan stood up as well. Since she had a class routine, she knew that Arthur was the Professor of Photography Department. "Sure, Professor."
She stretched her hand and Arthur took her hand. After they shook hands, they parted.
Mu Lan went inside the car and told Mark Anthony, "Take me to the company."
"Can't wait to meet your future husband?" Mark joked. He came to Paris with Mu Liang and Mu Lan.
"Are you jealous? Get married." Mu Lan said.
"No one is as lovesick as you." Mark scoffed.
Mu Lan smirked. "What's so bad about it? In the end, it's a miracle." Her eyes were looking at the distant.
Mark didn't say anything in reply; probably agreeing with Mu Lan's logic.
They soon arrived in the company. Since Mu Lan was still embarrassed about her drunk incident, she didn't dare to use the front door. She used the garage elevator and went to the top floor.
After the door of the elevator was open, she took a deep breath and with a long stride she walked in the corridor.
Before she could face Mu Liang's presidential office, she had to face his two secretaries. As usual, they were working hard.
Seeing Mu Lan, they stopped working at once and gaped at her.
"What do you think you are doing here?" The first secretary asked in a stern tone. She stood up from her chair.
"I came to meet the president." Mu Lan gave them a sweet smile.
"No way!" The both secretaries at the same time.
It had been so long that the president came back and it was his first day too. But now this drunk woman had to come and destroy the peaceful environment.
Seeing the vigilant eyes, Mu Lan sighed. It was her fault not telling them beforehand anyway.
"You were already half dead back then, don't you remember? How can you come back and face the boss?" The second secretary hissed. She couldn't use loud voice. She feared that the president would get angry again.
The first secretary said, "The President already has a fiancée. Stop your fantasy and look at the reality. Don't make trouble for us."
Mu Lan knew this wouldn't work but still tried, "If I tell you that I am the fiancée for the President, will you believe me?"
"No way." The both secretaries said in unison. They were standing in front of Mu Lan, so that she couldn't enter inside.
Seeing no other way, Mu Lan took out her cell phone and was about to call Mu Liang.
Just then, the door of the Presidential room opened the Assistant Ju Long came out. Looking at the two secretaries blocking the corridor, he asked, "What happened?" Then he saw Mu Lan.
"Madam, why didn't you inform your arrival to me?" Assistant Ju Long politely greeted Mu Lan, not caring the other two women.
"My head is occupied with so many things. I forgot to call you earlier." Actually, she didn't plan on calling him from the first place; but she didn't want to hurt his feelings. "You have gotten thinner. Because of us, you went through so much pressure. I deeply apologize for it."
Assistant Ju Long indeed lost some weight because of so much pressure. He hurriedly said, "No no, it's fine. Please don't apologize. The President is inside. I'm about to order his lunch. What should I order for you?"
"Whatever he wants, I'll have the same." Mu Lan said before turning toward the door and walked there.
The two of them talked neglecting the two secretaries whose jaws dropped on the floor the moment Assistant Ju Long called Mu Lan 'Madam'.
Mu Lan opened the door abruptly without even knocking the door and entered. Before closing the door, she didn't forget to wink at the two secretaries.
Mu Liang was working. He was very busy. He didn't look out to see who entered.
Mu Lan didn't disturb him. She sat of the sofa and took a magazine. She began to read it. The magazine was about her. There was a picture of Red. She was on the stage, confidently introducing her inventions.
The one who wrote this article was full of her praise. However, that person didn't exaggerate and pointed out everything logically and accurately without even a little bias.
Mu Lan was pleased with the article and looked at the name of the journalist.
Little B*tch.
Mu Lan's expression changed.
It was Yan Su's pseudonym.
Mu Lan sighed and rubbed her forehead.
No wonder there was no bad criticism.
She put down the magazine and looked at the clock on the wall. It was already twenty minutes that she arrived. Another ten minutes and the lunch time would start.
Mu Lan closed her eyes to reorder her thoughts. She came here not only to see Mu Liang's face. She had other purpose in her mind.
Just ten minutes later, Mu Liang stopped working. He stood up and walked towards Mu Lan. He hugged her from behind and asked, "Why didn't you tell me earlier that you were coming?"
"Liang Liang, I have something to tell you."
