Chapter 61.5
Mu Rulan followed Ke Wanqing to the office early in the morning, and then Ke Wanqing had her secretary take Mu Rulan to the spa, then to do her hair, buy clothes, then makeup . An entire day passed just like that .

As Mu Rulan was enjoying her massage, she thought of something and took out her phone to send a text .
Mo Qianren was still investigating the steps Mu Rulan had taken to have Wang Qiang trigger the traps he had set with his own hands when he felt his phone buzz .
——Mr . Mo, this massage place is very good . Let’s come together next time (With a smiley emoticon)
Mo Qianren looked silently at his phone, thumb hovering over the keys, but did not respond before putting his phone to the side . He stared at it some more and then picked it up again .
——Mm . Translated by The Novelst
Mu Rulan saw his response and the smile on her face widened . She could imagine the look on his face, cold as he typed out that kind of message . It was a little cute .
So she found a very interesting way to spend her day .
When she was shopping for a dress, the designer excitedly pick two out of his latest collection for her . One was plain white while the other was a sexy red; both unexpectedly suited Mu Rulan well, but she only needed one, so…
——Mr . Mo, which one do you think is better? (Attached with two images, the dresses on mannequins . )

He was having dinner at the Lu Family residence . Three pairs of eyes were fixed on him as he took out his phone to stare at the screen for a while before responding .
——Neither are good .
——What about them aren’t good?
——Do you think you have such a majestic chest, so as to support the cloth that looks supported by lanterns?
Mu Rulan had finally received a response that exceeded five words from him, though he was being sarcastic .
“I’m sorry . It looks like I’ll have to choose another dress,” Mu Rulan said to the designer . She changed the option to a simple silver-white dress and obtained deeply veiled praise from one Mr . Mo Qianren .
Then she started to work on her hair . Mr . Mo thought the straight hair that reached her waist was very good: there was no need to use heat or dye to damage the hair, so Mu Rulan only allowed the designer to do a little bit of styling .
When Mo Qianren finally finished giving his advice through text, he had already sent more than five texts at the dining table .
“Who is it? Is it Lan Lan?” Mother Lu smiled as she drank the soup . Lu Zimeng heard and his head swiveled over so fast that he nearly injured himself .
Father Lu saw this overreaction and used a chopstick to hit his head, scolding, “How many times do I have to tell you to be calmer . Look at you, so careless!”

Lu Zimeng felt very wronged . He was concerned about Mo Qianren! If they were to know the truth, who knew if their reactions would be even more intense than his own! Alarm bells rang in his mind now whenever he heard Mu Rulan’s name .
Mo Qianren could never fall in love with Mu Rulan!
How could a law enforcement officer fall in love with a criminal?
How could a criminal psychologist fall in love with a psychopath?
Mo Qianren didn’t pay any mind to what Lu Zimeng was thinking . He put down his bowl and left the table . “I’m already full . ”
“This child… Isn’t he in too much of a hurry to chat with Lan Lan?” Mother Lu smiled sleazily .
……
Mu Rulan sat beside Ke Wanqing . She smiled as they approached a gorgeous villa . She had been wondering which banquet they were headed to, so it turned out to be this…
“Oh my! Lan Lan!” A surprised noise came from Li Yan . She strode to them and grasped Mu Rulan’s hands . “Why didn’t you say you were coming? What a wonderful surprise!”
So it was the Lan Family’s banquet and the person of honor was Li Yan .

“I wanted to surprise you . Happy birthday, Aunt Li,” Mu Rulan said, handing her the gift that had been prepared by Ke Wanqing .
Li Yan happily accepted the gift . She was as happy as if she’d seen her future daughter-in-law .
Once Mu Rulan stepped into the room, she began to gather notice . She was a natural source of light: no one was able to ignore her existence .
Lan Binglin stood in the center of the crowd, surrounded by Ziyuan students . Most had followed their parents to the banquet, and their objective was obvious: to fawn over this rising giant of business .
Since his power was so exceptional, especially when compared to Lan Baifeng’s other son, Lan Yiyang, who was nothing but trouble, it was almost certain that the Lan Family heir would be Lan Binglin . And the Jin Family had cooperated with him as well, making the situation turn so quickly that the An Family had ended up as the scapegoat .
Ke Wanqing had brought Mu Rulan to this kind of place to let Lan Binglin develop an interest in Mu Rulan, so he could perhaps give the Mu company a hand .
Naturally, Mu Rulan wouldn’t care about what Ke Wanqing was thinking, as this kind of thing didn’t require any action from herself .
Lan Binglin made his way through the crowd, his eyes fixed on the girl quietly sipping champagne in the corner .
“Miss Mu,” Lan Binglin said, standing in front of Mu Rulan .
Mu Rulan looked up in surprise before standing up and smiling . “Hello, Mr . Lan . ”
Lan Binglin smiled . It seemed Mu Rulan had become more mature and confident in the few months that had passed since their first meeting in the hospital . “We’re both so young . Do we really need to use Miss and Mr . ?”
Mu Rulan shrugged .
“You can call me by my name, Bing . Lin . ”
“Then you can also call me by my name, Ru . Lan . ”
Lan Binglin’s smile widened . Translated by The Novelst
At the other side, Li Yan was very pleased to see her baby having a good talk with Mu Rulan . She kept bringing up how they looked perfectly matched to Ke Wanqing, hinting that they should join families .
Ke Wanqing seemed willing on the surface, but her heart was full of disdain . If it wasn’t for the fire she needed to put out, she wouldn’t have brought Mu Rulan . Although Lan Binglin wasn’t that bad and she could see that his future was bright…
But if he were to join hands with her daughter, that wasn’t enough . In her mind, the only people who could match Mu Rulan were the few princes of the Huo Family .
After some time the cake cutting ceremony began . Li Yan happily invited Mu Rulan to cut the cake with her . Just when everyone was having a good time, a disharmonious sound came from behind .
