"What did you just say?" Mo Lingtan asked, as if he wanted to confirm. Lee Xuiye liked him.
From when?...
How?…,
Why?…
"Why can"t I like you? Why can"t you make me your girlfriend? What is so good about Ziyao? Why do you have to make her your girlfriend?" Lee Xuiye asked all the questions which she wanted to ask from the last five days.
Exactly, how could Zhuo Ziyao become so good than Lee Xuiye?...
"Enough...Who told you that she is my girlfriend?" Mo Lingtan frustratingly asked.
"Xingjuan told me that Ziyao told her that she likes you and you spend all the time with her. Isn"t she your girlfriend then what is she for you?"
"She is a friend like you. YOU STUPID!" Mo Lingtan annoyingly shouted.
He couldn"t believe Lee Xuiye would be so stupid. Just because Ziyao told Xingjuan that she liked Mo Lingtan, did it mean she was his girlfriend?
Most of the girls in this school had said that they liked Mo Lingtan. Did that mean they were all his girlfriend?
How Stupid!
Lee Xuiye knew that if Mo Lingtan would have been like Zhuo Ziyao, he would definitely say that. He didn"t need to lie to her. That meant, he really didn"t like her.
Lee Xuiye confirmed again "Really?"
"Of course, you stupid. She is just a friend. I have no feeling for her more than that" Mo Lingtan annoyingly said.
Lee Xuiye was overjoyed after listening to Mo Lingtan.
"HaaShhhh... Thank G.o.d, he doesn"t like Ziyao" Lee Xuiye amusingly shouted in her heart.
However, in the next second, Mo Lingtan poured the cold water on her joy by saying that "But...Xuiye... It doesn"t mean that I like you. Even I don"t have feelings for you. You are just a friend and I hope you should understand this".
Mo Lingtan was very clear that he didn"t want to waste his time on dating whether the girl was Lee Xuiye or any other.
"Why...Brother Lingtan. Aren"t I good for you?" Lee Xuiye said in a low voice. She was cleared upset that Mo Lingtan rejected her.
"Xuiye...It"s not that you are not good. It"s just that I have never considered you more than a friend and you are just 12... Xuiye...You should focus on your study. Don"t you want to do anything for your mom? Tell me!"
Mo Lingtan was right. She was just 12. She should focus on her study and made Lee Chang-You to proud of her. As Mo Lingtan didn"t have any feeling for her and she couldn"t force him to like her. It would be best for her to not to force her feeling on him, otherwise, she might lose a good friend.
"I understand, Brother Lingtan. I am sorry, I won"t do something like this again" Lee Xuiye said in a low voice and her head was lowered.
"Good then. I have brought gifts for you, but because of your stupidity, I wasn"t able to give. Come home and take them. I am going now. Bye" Mo Lingtan said and left from there without waiting for her reply.

In the evening Lee Xuiye went to Mo"s Old Mansion. Both Su Qiaolian and Mo Mushan were busy in their career and they didn"t have much time to take care of their children. Therefore, they lived in the Old Mansion with children, so that Song Zhilan and Mo Yinan could take care of children.
Both Song Zhilan and Mo Yinan loved their grandchildren. In fact, all the members of Mo family doted on Mo Xingjuan, as she was their precious granddaughter. As it was said that from the last three generations, Mo Family didn"t have any daughter.
Mo Yinan"s father was three brothers, even Mo Yinan"s mother gave birth to two sons and even Mo Mushan was a single child of Song Zhilan and Mo Yinan.
Luckily, heavens had sent their blessings and Su Qiaolian gave birth to a daughter.
Despite being doted from her family, Mo Xingjuan didn"t show her arrogance like daughters from the other aristocratic families. All thanks to Mo Lingtan for giving proper guidance to his sister.
When Lee Xuiye reached the Old Mansion, she saw that all the servants were busy in their work and voices of chattering and laughing coming from the living room. Lee Xuiye went inside and saw that Mo Family, except Mo Lingtan and Zhua Ziyao and beside her, a man, whose age looked like around Mo Mushan, and elegant woman were sitting. From their facial features, they looked like Zhua Ziyao"s parents.
"Xuiye…" Mo Xingjuan happily called out and she went towards her, when she saw Lee Xuiye was coming inside.
Lee Xuiye had a good impression on Mo Family, despite she was from the middle-cla.s.s. Mo Family knew that Lee Xuiye was a hard-working child and would definitely do big things in her life.
Even Zhuo Ziyao recognised Lee Xuiye. Even though they hadn"t talked with each other, but she heard most of the things about her from Mo Lingtan and she could sense that Lee Xuiye was an important person in Mo Lingtan"s life.
Lee Xuiye greeted the Mo Family"s elder and straightaway went to Mo Lingtan"s room with Mo Xingjuan to take her gift, as she didn"t want to disrupt Mo Family and their guests.
Lee Xuiye took the packet of her gift and swiftly left from Mo Lingtan"s room, she was about to leave, but Song Zhilan stopped her and told her to have some snacks.
Lee Xuiye wanted to deny, as it was not appropriate to be an uninvited guest, but Mo Xingjuan already dragged her to the dining room by saying that she was also hungry and because of guests, they might have late dinner, so Lee Xuiye should give company to her.
Lee Xuiye and Mo Xingjuan were sitting in the dining room, but they could hear the elders what they were talking in the living room.
However, Lee Xuiye didn"t expect in the next moment that she would hear something, which would break her heart.
"Qiaolian, Where is Lingtan? Didn"t he know that we have guests tonight?" Song Zhilan asked, when she notice that Mo Lingtan didn"t return to the home yet.
"Grandma, Brother Lingtan went with his friend to complete an a.s.signment, he will come later," Zhuo Ziyao said in a sweet voice.
Everyone looked at Zhuo Ziyao with an amusing expression on their faces.
"Mushan, I think we won"t be just friends in future" Zhuo Lizhong happily said.
"Dad," Zhuo Ziyao said and blushed.
"Ziyao, why are you feeling shy? If you and Lingtan like with each other. we don"t mind" Mrs Zhuo said with a pleasant smile on her face.
"Of course. In fact, I think, we should hold a party for their engagement. What"s say, Mushan?" Zhuo Lizhong said with a big smile on his face.
