Because someone was going on a date, Qian Lan started to dress up more than before. This small change caught the attention of her family.
So, Mother Qian couldn't help but ask her daughter, "Is Qian Lan dating someone? She's been putting on makeup recently. "
"Mom, I'm not sure," Qian Lan's sister shook her head.
"You need to take care of your sister and keep an eye on her. With a family like ours, what if she marries a poor man?" Mother Qian instructed.
"OK mom, I'll keep an eye on Qian Lan."
"Qian Hui, I don't want anything else. I just hope that Qian Lan can find a good man. That way, even if your father and I go to hell right now, we can rest in peace."
Qian Hui smiled and comforted her mother, "Mom, don't worry, Qian Lan will definitely find her happiness."
"Secretly follow her a few times. If the other party is too bad, immediately make a move. You can't let them develop a deep relationship."
Qian Hui was helpless. She couldn't stand her mother's nagging, "Mom … I know what to do."
Previously, when Qian Lan gave up her job and insisted on becoming a teacher, her family was against it. But, it was just a job, so it didn't matter if she did it or not. But, when it came to life, it wasn't up to her to decide.
Qian Lan had no idea that her family was watching her every move. But, she was certain that the type of man she liked was Mo Zichen.
Although Qian Lan grew up in an official's household, she was a mature person. Plus, she had always been assertive and knew what she wanted and what she rejected.
So, she didn't want to miss out on Mo Zichen. Whether it was her life or her partner, as long as she came across something she wanted, she was going to give it a try. Of course, if Mo Zichen didn't like her, it would be a different story.
As they were both teachers, their time was limited. Plus, there was a cinema near the school. So, Qian Lan used this as an excuse to invite Mo Zichen out.
Although it was a lame excuse, Mo Zichen patiently agreed.
The couple agreed to watch a second screening after work. But, Qian Lan had no idea that the Qian Family had already sent someone to follow her.
Mo Zichen knew from the start that the person's tracking skills weren't even as good as the paparazzi, so it was obvious how amateurish they were.
However, Mo Zichen pretended not to know.
"There haven't been any good movies recently, but this one is really popular, so I bought the tickets," Qian Lan said as she handed the tickets to Mo Zichen.
As soon as Mo Zichen saw the name of the film, he couldn't help but laugh, "A production of Hai Rui."
"Last time, I saw that you didn't seem to like detective type, so this time, let's watch sci-fi."
"Alright." Mo Zichen didn't bat an eyelid from the beginning to the end, or it could be said that this was his professional ethics as an intelligence officer.
"Do you have any special hobbies after work? For example, sports? Or reading books? "
"I like to sleep." He went to class during the day and carried out missions at night. He was already very tired, so whenever he had some free time, he would choose to catch up on sleep.
"It's fine, I'm quite a boring person too," Qian Lan laughed.
From an outsider's point of view, no matter how they looked at it, there wouldn't be any sparks between the two. But, Qian Lan wanted to try it out with Mo Zichen.
"The film is about to start. Let's go in," Mo Zichen suggested; he was a little annoyed by the guy that was secretly taking photos of them.
Qian Lan nodded her head and carried a bag of popcorn into the theater with Mo Zichen. They then sat down in the theater.
At this time, the person that was secretly taking photos of Qian Lan had already delivered them to Qian Hui.
As soon as Qian Hui saw Mo Zichen, she immediately furrowed her brows, "This guy looks good, but he definitely doesn't come from a good family. One look and you can tell that he's a gigolo!"
So, she immediately sent someone to investigate Mo Zichen. But, apart from being a normal teacher, Mo Zichen's parents were all unknown.
In other words, Mo Zichen was a loser that didn't even have parents and was probably a shameful person.
How could someone with a background like that be good enough for Qian Lan?
Because of this, Qian Hui obtained Mo Zichen's contact details from the school. Just like her mother said, before Qian Lan and Mo Zichen developed any deep feelings for each other, it was time to nip this in the bud.
Mo Zichen never expected that the person was from the Qian Family and that they would personally come looking for him the next day. But, by the time he and Qian Lan finished watching the film, the person had already disappeared.
"Mr. Mo …"
"You can call me Zichen," Mo Zichen replied.
"I … wanted to ask you about your views on relationships." Qian Lan's hint was obvious enough, but Mo Zichen did not respond immediately. Seeing this, Qian Lan smiled awkwardly, "I'm sorry, I was too impatient."
"No, you're quite cute like this," Mo Zichen laughed. "I don't have much of an opinion on relationships. Everything depends on fate."
"Hai Rui's film was really good. Thank you for today. Let's meet again another day."
Mo Zichen did not show any obvious intentions, but he did not reject her goodwill either.
But, Qian Lan reflected on herself and wondered if she had been too proactive.
"I'll take you home!"
"No need, my home is nearby," Qian Lan rejected. "You must be tired from the day. Go home and get some rest."
"OK, send me a message when you get home," Mo Zichen did not insist.
He seemed to treat everyone like a gentleman, as if he was deliberately keeping his distance. Qian Lan was a little disappointed, but she did not show it on her face. She was afraid that her family would see this and object.
Afterwards, the couple returned home.
But, after Mo Zichen changed his clothes, he disappeared into the night sky. He had no choice but to act on instinct.
Because of this, his friend laughed at him, "After joining this stupid organization, you can't even tell the truth when you're flirting with a girl. You must be tired. If you don't like her, you should've just rejected her. Why do you have to be so indifferent?"
"If it was someone else, they would've been scared off a long time ago. But, this time, it's different," Mo Zichen shrugged.
"F * ck, it turns out that there are actually people in this world that like your boredom!"
"Don't say that. I'm actually a man of character," Mo Zichen said before he put on a pair of black gloves …
…
Qian Lan had a feeling that Mo Zichen didn't like her, but Mo Zichen did not make it clear. This made her quite frustrated …
By the time she returned home, her family was already asleep, so Qian Lan didn't have to explain herself. But, she had no idea that her family already knew that she was in contact with a poor rascal.
