Buying a pack of Yakult, Sia sat on their usual place and picked up her cell phone and texted Mu Jun.

"Are you still in the class?"

Thinking that Mu jun might not reply, just as Sia was about to keep the phone aside, her cell phone vibrated with an incoming message.

Grabbing her phone, she checked her inbox only to find a reply from Mu Jun

"Yup...You are back?"

"Hmm...I\'m sitting near the canteen"

"Oh...Wait for us, we will be there when the class ends"

"Okay!!"

Not long after, Mu Jun along with the rest of their friends walked towards the canteen.

As soon as Su Yan saw Sia, she ran towards Sia and hugged her while saying "Bro, I missed you"

With a faint smile, Sia hugged Su Yan and replied "Me too"

Giggling, Su Yan stepped back and asked worriedly "How\'s your brother?"

"He\'s good. Just need to rest for a few days and recuperate, after that he will be perfectly alright"

Hearing that Su Yan sighed in relief and said "Oh that\'s good"

"Hmm..." Sia said with a faint smile before she turned to Mu Jun and said "Thank you for your help and thank you for lending the car...here\'s the key" She said and passed the car keys to Mu Jun.

Saying nothing, Mu Jun received the keys from Sia.

Staring at Mu Jun in shock, Yang Jie asked "Did you lend her the car?"

"Hmmm..."

"Wahh.....wait! that\'s not the point" realizing something, Yang Jie turned to Sia and asked in shock "You know how to drive?"

Not thinking much, Sia replied indifferently "Yup"

"Waah...hey, how much old are you? how can you learn how to drive at such a tender age?" Yang Jie berated like a big mother.

Rolling her eyes, Sia looked at Yang Jie disdainfully and said "Is there any rule that a seventeen-year-old shouldn\'t know how to drive? and...don\'t forget your other three friends also know how to drive"

"Oh..." tongue-tied, Yang Jie did not know how to refute.

just as Sia was chatting with the other, she found something amiss between certain two couples who seems to look gloomy, sad, confused.

With her eyebrows raised, She nudged her elbow to Su Yan and asked "Bro, what\'s with these two? why are they behaving weirdly?"

"Ah that...Sigh, let\'s take a seat first and then I\'ll explain to you"

"Oh...then wait a minute, I\'ll get some juice and popcorn" with that said, Sia rushed to the canteen to buy some food to enjoy the short story.

The previous day...

After hearing Sia\'s words, Lu Jin could not sleep for a whole day and he kept thinking it through. Among the whole group, Su Yan who was the only one who knew of the matter that Lu Jin was worried about the most, could not help but sigh. She understood that Lu Jin had finally come back to his sense and he was making his decision.

After thinking for an whole day, Lu Jin finally understood that if he kept ignoring the problem then one day not only will he end up in a disaster, he might unintentionally cause disaster to An Ran.

Finally making up his mind, he decided to speak with An Ran. Following Sia\'s suggestion, he decided to only hint her about his line of work, knowing that too much information might bring danger to An Ran\'s life.

With this thought in his mind, he finally decided to meet An Ran near the empty ground in the evening.

Dressed in her pajamas, An Ran arrived at the location at the mentioned time.

For some reason, An ran felt anxious when she saw Lu Jin\'s serious expression and she had the strong urge to run away.

Just as she wanted to make up a reason and run away from there, Lu Jin finally opened his mouth to say

"An Ran... that-I had hidden something from you"

"Uh...wh-what is it?" An Ran asked with a shaky voice

"That...uhm..." though scared, Lu Jin hardened his heart and took a deep breath. raising his head, he looked up with his eyes sparkling in determination. "An Ran, the reason I broke up with you was not because I was playing with you, nor was it because I was no longer in love with you but it was because...It-it was because of my line of work"

With a bitter smile on his smile, he continued to say "My hands are not clean. At a young age, I was already involved in the dark occupation and my hands were stained with blood. When and where my enemies will attack me, I have no idea about that. I\'m afraid that because of me your life will be put into danger. That was the reason why I broke up with you back then, thinking that I could forget you as time passed but then when I saw you again on the first day of our school, I realized the forgetting you was impossible. An Ran, whatever I wanted to say I have said everything and now whether you will accept me or reject me, everything left you. I--" just as Lu Jin wanted to say something he saw An Ran stumble back and look at him with her eyes full of fear.

Afraid that she might fall on her back, Just as Lu Jin stepped forward to hold her, An Ran suddenly turned around and ran to her dorm.

Watching An Ran\'s disappearing figure, Lu Jin retracted his hand and smiled bitterly.

"Huh...just as I expected, she will never accept me" Looking up at the sky, he thought "In this life maybe we can never be together but if I have the next life, I wish.....I can make you my wife. An Ran sorry, I have disappointed you and hurt you. If possible, please ...forgive me"
