The relationship between Wen Ran and Mo Xiuchen seemed to have changed, yet, it also seemed like it hadn't.
What was different was that they no longer made public displays of affection to the envy of others.
What remained the same was their feelings for each other; they were still deeply in love, they just showed it in a different way. Wen Ran lived at the Wen family home and Mo Xiuchen, reluctant to live alone, came over in the small hours of the morning.
The second night, after work, he went straight to Wen's house, claiming he was there to pick up a thermal lunch box, and dined at Wen's house.
That night, he continued to stay in the room next to Wen Ran's.
Wen Ran was polite but distant towards him, but he didn't mind. Still, with a full-faced smile and gentle demeanor, he treated her as if he was the one who had done something wrong, trying to ingratiate himself to her and ask for her forgiveness.
