"I…I might havee here before. Just didn''t remember before. After all, this ce is near my hometown."


    Mo Ron avoided He Jian''s eyes and answered his question.


    He Jian continued to stare at her silently and a momentter, he stepped closer.


    "How long do you n to hide from me?"


    Mo Ron swiftly raised her head to look at him.


    There was a helpless smile on He Jian''s lips. He wanted to wait for her to tell him by herself. However, seeing her alienation, he could feel that his wait would never end if he himself didn''t end it.


    "You know."


    Mo Ron said breathlessly.


    Everything suddenly became so clear.


    She had her doubts from the first time He Jian helped her.


    Mo Ron knew He Jian very well, or that was what she thought.


    Why would the cold and aloof man help her so many times?


    He would have passed by her side indifferently without even giving her one ce if he hadn''t known her. That was what Mo Ron thought.


    It was true for her past life and she thought for this life as well.


    It was the only reason behind her covering her face that night. In her past life, he had found her only because of that.


    She didn''t want him to find her in this life so she covered her face.


    She erased the chances of their meeting in this life.


    However, she had not expected that she would not be able to avoid him no matter what she did five years ago.


    "Lan…"


    Her breath hitched in her throat when she heard him calling her. She looked at the gentleness in those blue eyes.


    It was not her illusion before. He had really called her by this name.


    But suddenly her eyes went cold and she said harshly to him.


    "Don''t call me by this name."


    He Jian only smiled seeing his kitten angry.


    "Alright, we will talk about itter."


    He then took out his phone and called the driver. The car was there after a few moments. He Jian opened the door for her and signed her to sit inside but Mo Ron didn''t move even an inch.


    She looked at the car and then at him.


    He knows everything. Remembering the things that followed after this in her past life, she suddenly didn''t wish to go inside.


    "I will just walk from here."


    She said in a daze and turned to walk away but her wrist was suddenly grasped from her behind.


    The warm touch on her cold skin seemed a little familiar and yet unfamiliar.


    "Mo Ron"


    This was the first time she had heard him calling herplete name in this life. He had called her like this in herst life too so Mo Ron knew that when he called her like this, he was very serious and meant whatever he says.


    "Get inside the car. I''ll not leave you here alone."


    She turned and looked at his cold and serious face.


    He looked just like this when he had asked her to get out of his car in thest life.


    "Sit inside or both of us will walk to wherever you want to go."


    He said firmly again.


    She jerked his hand away and went to sit inside the car leaving He Jian sighing helplessly.


    He really doesn''t know what wrong he had done to make her this angry.


    After He Jian sat inside, the driver started the car and drove it away to Wenhua town.


    ------------------


    One and half hourter, Mo Ron stepped inside the jewelry shop she hade to five years ago.


    The jeweler saw her and fixed his sses while looking at her curiously.


    "Mo girl?"


    He asked with an uncertain tone.


    Mo Ron walked further inside and said to the jeweler


    "Yes Uncle, I''m Mo Ron."


    The jeweler nodded his head and smiled.


    "So much time has passed since Ist saw you. Are you here to take back your ne?"


    Mo Ron''s fists were clenched when she heard the jeweler.


    She had five years'' time to give back the money she had borrowed from the jeweler in exchange for her mother''s diamond ne. Today was thest date of that period of time.


    "Uncle, I don''t have any money to give you and free the ne."


    She said stiffly.


    The jeweler frowned and Mo Ron felt her heart sinking more. She wanted her mother''s ne but all the money that she and her mother had collected was now spent on her college, Mo Chen''s school, and buying that apartment in City H.


    So she doesn''t have any money to pay the jeweler.


    She could also understand the jeweler''s worry. After all, he had not profited even a little from the money he gave to her.


    "Then ording to the agreement, Mo girl, I can sell that ne now."


    The jeweler didn''t have any problem if he could sell that ne. He could earn all the money he had given to Mo Ron in one go if he sold it.


    But Mo Ron quickly shook her head making his frown deeper.


    "Uncle, I''m here to request you not to sell that ne."


    "But Mo girl…"


    Mo Ron interrupted him and continued.


    "Uncle that ne is very important to my mother. I promise you that I''ll give back all the money I have borrowed in one year. Uncle, please give me that much time. I will be grateful to you always."


    She pleaded.


    The jeweler looked at her for a few seconds. He actually knew that now Mo Ron studied in the City and she was a very intelligent student.


    Maybe she would get a job and pay back the money slowly and even if she didn''t, he always had that ne to sell and have his money back.


    Thinking all this, the jeweler sighed and asked the working boy to bring him a pen and paper.


    "Mo Girl, I''ll give you one more year. If you couldn''t pay me back in one year, I will sell that ne no matter how much you will plead at that time."


    Mo Ron instantly nodded her head and signed her name on the paper.


    Stepping out of the jewelry store, Mo Ron sighed heavily.


    The amount that she had collected in five years; she would now have to earn in one year.


    It was not easy.


    But as long as there was hope, she would do everything within her reach.
