Chapter 6 - Never Want To See You Again
"Don't even think about it."
A low chuckle vibrated through He Jian's words at Mo Roulan's words. For a few seconds, the sound dazed her even today. Even after she had given up.
" Why are you so serious hm? You are just a child."
It amused him that she ignored his words. He had never liked kids especially girls. But this girl was so cute he can't control himself to not bully her. The indifference in her eyes amazed and amused him at the same time.
Looking at the girl walking in front of him without looking back, he thought about the scene he saw a few minutes ago. During the fight between Mo Roulan and that woman, the cloth with which she had covered her face got loosened and half of her face was visible which she didn't notice. Even though He Jian could only see her side profile, he was distracted for a few moments and got punched once. The skin he saw was very white, tender, and smooth, there was a small wound on the right side of her temple. Remembering the touch when he had kissed her temple, he felt an itch in his heart.
Till that time she had realized that her face was uncovered and she covered it again with her cloth after the woman was not able to get up. The men were unconscious after He Jian's beating. He was afraid that the girl will get scared and hence he took her away in hurry from that place. When he asked her to show him her face so that he could take a look at her wound, she refused decisively.
She looked at him condescendingly after that. He felt like she could read his thoughts.
The girl seemed to know more than her age.
The strange thing was he was not angry at all with her refusal.
As they were going down the mountain, He Jian listened to some footsteps coming in their direction and got alert. Two or three steps ahead of him, Mo Roulan was looking around the bushes. At this moment, He Jian suddenly held her hand and hid both of them behind the bushes, and pointed her to not make any noise by putting his finger on her lips. From his place, he saw three men walking towards the mountain and coming towards them. When they were close, he saw a familiar face among them and got relaxed. Still, he signed Mo Roulan to not come out and walked towards them.
Hidden behind the bushes, Mo Roulan looked at his back talking to those three men.
They were here to save him. She knew. Standing up from her spot, she went deeper inside the bushes. There lied a small black puppy in the bushes tied with a rope. It was because of this small dog that those men were able to locate He Jian in her past life. The puppy had a small tracking device on its paw.
She kneeled beside it and gently stroked its head. The puppy was tired. The rope was still in its mouth. It seemed like it was trying to chew it off but was unable to do so.
Going outside these bushes was a small street where she was hit and abducted by them. It was she who tied the puppy here. She silently cursed herself to tie the puppy like this. The puppy was awakened by her gentle movement and by this time, she had loosened the rope. It looked at her for a few seconds and then sniffed her. Taking the opportunity she held it in her hands carefully and took it to the place where He Jian had asked her to hide.
She put it outside the bushes. The puppy ran to its master and He Jian was surprised to see his pet. As he held the puppy in his hands and smoothened its with his strokes, Mo Roulan stood up from her place and took a long look at them.
Then she turned around and walked out from there in the opposite direction where he was standing.
There was a small forest and after crossing it she would be able to go out of this mountain.
She turned around to look again in his direction.
He was the man she loved selflessly and selfishly in her past life. She was ready to do anything to get him. But life taught her a very hard lesson. Some things are not ought to be written in your fate and if you forcefully try to write it in your fate then it will be only you who will get wounded. Her heart hurts thinking of giving upon him. Still, she knew that this love will only give her pain. So, she wants to save herself this time.
In this life, she would love those who loved her. She would love herself. But never again, she would love this man because her love for him was very toxic and poisonous to her.
In her heart, she wondered whether she would see him again. But a part of his consciousness said to her that it would be good if she would not meet him again.
Life was long as well as short. She doesn't want to go down that same path again. She doesn't want to become that indecent, selfish, and inferior woman again.
'So He Jian I Hope that we would not see each other again in this life.'
She turned around and never looked back in his direction again.
