As soon as Yan Hai’an returned to China, he heard that Mo Yisheng was in trouble before his jet lag was even down. Su Yin panicked when he saw him in the police station, for fear that Sun Yan would blame him and he might lose his golden job.
Sun Yan was angry: “I asked you to take care of him. And you fucking take care of him like this?”
Su Yin held the steering wheel with his palms sweating: “I’m sorry, President Sun. It was my negligence.”
In fact, it doesn’t matter to Sun Yan whether Mo Yisheng was killed or set on fire. But he couldn’t see Yan Hai’an being so anxious: “Okay. Stop talking nonsense to me. It doesn’t matter if I let you go?”
“I…,” Su Yin paused and said reluctantly, “But Liang Tian has already gone to him.”
Sun Yan immediately told Yan Hai’an: “Liang Tian is the most efficient in handling affairs. He is good at catching people. Let’s go home first and I promise to bring Mo Yisheng back to you immediately.”
“Let’s go to the police station first. I want to see him.” Yan Hai’an pinched the bridge of his nose, “How could he do such a thing…? No. It’s more like… I should have thought earlier that he might do something like this.”
Sun Yan grabbed his shoulders. His eyes were met with the cautious Su Yin in the rearview mirror and he gave him a vicious look, signalling that he would settle the account with him later.
Su Yin shrank his neck and silently increased the speed.
At the police station, Liang Tian asked a lawyer to go through the formalities and he made a phone call outside of the building. The name of the Sun family was very useful and a response came shortly after.
He put the phone off, frowning slightly.
A bunch of headlights illuminated his feet. Liang Tian woke up from his thoughts and walked down the steps: “Mr. Sun, when things are done, he will come out immediately.”
Sun Yan immediately said to Yan Hai’an: “Look, you don’t have to worry?”
Yan Hai’an breathed a sigh of relief: “Thank you. It troubled you.”
“No trouble.” Liang Tian smiled politely, “It’s my duty.”
If you have a relationship with the authorities in China, it will be more efficient. The lawyer has already brought Mo Yisheng while they are talking.
“Yisheng!” Yan Hai’an quickly stepped forward and held his hand, “Are you alright? Did you hurt yourself?”
Mo Yisheng was not as down or lost as he thought. Instead, he was very calm and even smiled at him: “I’m fine. Why are you back so early?”
This performance made Yan Hai’an even more worried, but now is not the time to investigate. He dared not mention the painting and competition: “Well, I’ve just returned to China.”
But Sun Yan didn’t have any scruples: “It’s good that you came out. You don’t have to worry about this matter. What you should do is just to go home. The person with the surname He or whatever will be cleaned up later. Let’s go back first. This place will give bad luck. “
Yan Hai’an turned his head and stared meaningfully; Why did you open the pot and light the fire?!
Sun Yan: “???”
Yan Hai’an hurriedly tried to comfort Mo Yisheng but Mo Yisheng said, “Thank you. Sorry for the trouble.”
Sun Yan recovered from the inexplicable situation and waved his hand in a grand manner: “It was for my boyfriend. You’re welcome.”
Liang Tian went to ask the lawyer for details and Su Yin went to drive. Mo Yisheng was led forward by Yan Hai’an. He said, “Hai’an, did you come back for me?”
Yan Hai’an was silent for a moment: “I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have left.”
He regretted it deeply but Mo Yisheng smiled instead: “Why did you say sorry to me? It’s not you or me that was wrong.”
“Yes,” Sun Yan teased, “it’s the world that was wrong.”
Yan Hai’an: “…”
He really wanted to grab a stick and beat him up. Is it funny to make such a middle school joke at such a time?!
Mo Yisheng didn’t answer and lowered his gaze.
The three came to the car. Sun Yan went to open the rear door and Yan Hai’an said: “You take the co-pilot.”
Sun Yan: “…”
Sun Yan’s anger is not unreasonable. Why should he be treated differently every time he confronts Mo Yisheng? Who has a better relationship with who?: “I’m going to sit in the back.”
Yan Hai’an gave him a ‘why are you so ignorant?’ look. He then asked Mo Yisheng to sit in first, then he went in, followed by Sun Yan.
Yan Hai’an was knocked into the middle by him at once: “…”
Sun Yan leaned against the door and said in a rough voice: “What’s wrong?! This car is big and has five seats.”
So three big men crowded in the back seat and the scene was terrible.
Su Yin couldn’t understand the strange relationship between the three and asked cautiously, “Mr. Sun, where are we going first?”
Sun Yan didn’t dare to get angry at Yan Hai’an so he could only pass the anger to Su Yin: “Didn’t you see that no one has eaten yet? Let’s go eat first!”
Su Yin didn’t dare to ask what to eat and started the car tremblingly.
Yan Hai’an looked at Mo Yisheng’s face with concern and saw that he had a fascinated smile on his face. “You’re just unlucky.”
Mo Yisheng looked out the window: “I’m lucky that I met you first.”
Yan Hai’an was not prepared for his sudden sensationalism and choked in an instant: “Yisheng…”
Mo Yisheng looked at his reflection on the window: “I burned that painting because I didn’t want to leave it to him. He is not qualified to own it.”
Sun Yan said cheaply, “It’s useless if you burn the painting. In the eyes of outsiders, it was painted by him.”
Yan Hai’an hit Sun Yan’s ribs with an elbow and Sun Yan let out a groan.
“It doesn’t matter. That painting is not pure, it has been stained.” He turned around and closed his eyes, “I don’t want people to know that it is my painting.”
Yan Hai’an was trembling. A person like Mo Yisheng, who looked simple, was actually very extreme. He was only afraid that Mo Yisheng would go from one extreme to another or even give up painting.
However, Mo Yisheng was silent all the way. He also didn’t even say a word during the meal. Yan Hai’an was very worried about him. But for the first time, he couldn’t understand him.
Because this matter was resolved too quickly, Li Weiwei, his own mother, did not know what her son did. But He Ling is now a little bit famous and the painting that won the international award was suddenly burned. This is a loss of morality or a distortion of human nature. The media likes this kind of news the most, how can they let it go? Sun Yan’s power was limited so he had to ask his brother for help to suppress this matter, so as not to have too much influence on Mo Yisheng.
After Sun Ling asked about the situation in a few words, he asked back, “Even if the media doesn’t report it, the public doesn’t know about it. Can people in their circle still know about it? That friend of yours doesn’t want to be in the circle anymore?”
Sun Yan was stunned: “Isn’t this a small problem?”
Sun Ling knew that he was saying that with their Sun family as the backing, he would always be able to get away with a handful of them.
Sun Yan didn’t think so much at all. He has never been thoughtful but when he heard this, he only thought about whether Yan Hai’an would also be worried about this. So then he became concerned: “Then how to do it? Give more money?”
“It’s not about spending some money, but other stuff…” Sun Ling looked at his brother’s indifferent face and shook his head helplessly, “Okay. You don’t have to worry about this. As long as you’re satisfied with the results.”
“Wait! Stay true to your words!” Sun Yan immediately threw the pot to his brother, “Do it as soon as possible.”
Sun Ling laughed and scolded: “I really owe a lot to you, huh?”
Sun Yan got Sun Ling’s promise and happily ran to Yan Hai’an to ask for credit. Yan Hai’an didn’t have time to be happy because Mo Yisheng was leaving.
He handed over the house and studio to Yan Hai’an for safekeeping and care. He then prepared to travel alone.
Yan Hai’an was anxious: “Are you going to go find your mother?”
Mo Yisheng, who was packing his luggage, raised his head: “I told my mother about this. She supports me very much.”
Of course a brain circuit like Li Weiwei will support you!
“Yisheng, you calm down. This matter can be solved.” Yan Hai’an wanted to comfort Mo Yisheng, but was stopped by Sun Yan.
Sun Yan glanced at Mo Yisheng and asked, “Have you made up your mind?”
Mo Yisheng packed his suitcase and closed the zipper: “Hmm, I’ve already bought a plane ticket.”
Yan Hai’an was dumbfounded and Sun Yan blew a whistle: “It’s incredible. Now you can even buy plane tickets yourself. Where are you going?”
Mo Yisheng smiled: “I’ll go to Paris first. I want to see ‘Water Lilies’ in the Orangery. Hai’an, didn’t we say we would go see it once we have time? Go there when you have time. I’ll take the first step.”
Sun Yan raised his eyebrows and pulled Yan Hai’an to his side: “Oh, don’t worry. I will take him there.”
Seeing the interaction between the two, Mo Yisheng lost the last trace of resentment in his heart and he continued: “You don’t have to worry about me about He Ling. I don’t care what other people think and I don’t mix in the circles, you know. Yes. I just feel like I’ve been here too long to think that the world is actually like that.”
Yan Hai’an frowned and asked what he was most worried about: “You… will you still paint?”
“Of course.” Mo Yisheng said and then smiled. This smile was a little different from the delicate and picturesque smiles in the past. His eyes were shining like newborn stars, “I will see the world. I will paint everything and I may have to send it back to you to help me keep it.”
When he said this, Yan Hai’an was somewhat relieved. No matter what Mo Yisheng thought, at least he would not give up his favourite oil painting. As long as it was confirmed that he wouldn’t give up painting.
Sun Yan looked at Yan Hai’an and said proactively, “It’s your first time travelling alone. I’ll find someone to assist you, so that Hai’an won’t be worried.”
“There’s nothing to worry about. I’m already an adult.” Mo Yisheng was taken aback for a moment with his own words, “This time, I want to go alone.”
Sun Yan showed a very interesting smile and turned to ask Yan Hai’an: “Do you think the child has grown up?”
Yan Hai’an didn’t refute. At this moment, he couldn’t tell the feeling in his heart.
In the end, he just said, “Don’t forget to call me.”

*Translator’s Note: I’ve always wanted to know if the author has written other stories about Mo Yisheng. But sadly, there’s none. T.T I just think it would be interesting if there’s one. -K
