If you ask Ji Su why he was interested in Qiao Lan in the first place, it would be too simple.

Like all the other boys and girls interested in Qiao Lan, good-looking people always attract attention, not to mention the fact that Qiao Lan is extraordinarily beautiful and his favourite type.

Ji Su remembers clearly that the senior who was not hiding his interest asked her who she was coming with and was going to take her to the dormitory with the slightly obvious intention of hitting on her, but Qiao Lan politely smiled and said something to dispel the senior's thoughts.

She said she had come with her boyfriend.

Ji Su looked at the girl's name before she left.

Qiao Lan is a common name, but she is a beautiful woman and has an exceptionally beautiful handwriting.

Ji Su knew how much attention he was getting in a major where there were more girls than boys. Ji Su glanced in the direction of Qiao Lan, the only freshman whose name he remembered, and looked down at his phone. When Ji Su and a few others passed by the third building after class, they saw Qiao Lan walking out hand in hand with a boy.

"That's Tan Mo, right?" said a girl in the class next to her, teasing Ji Su, "The one who stole your name as the school's top student, and turned out to be Qiao Lan's boyfriend."

"The man and the woman, no, the man is handsome and the woman is beautiful, match."

Matching? It looks pretty good together like this, a good looking little couple indeed.

But there are many good-looking people in this world, so if it were another one, they would look just as good together as they do to onlookers.

Qiao Lan and Tan Mo were so good that several of the boys who had previously been interested in Qiao Lan gave up, but Ji Su became more interested in Qiao Lan.

Because of his interest in Qiao Lan, Ji Su went to Qiao Lan a few more times during the military training for the new students, and also during the registration for the new students' club, both to see Qiao Lan and to add a little bit of action inside.

If Qiao Lan is not good enough to get in, then let her in; if Qiao Lan is good enough to get in, then bring in another person to confuse Qiao Lan.

After all, Qiao Lan told everyone she had a boyfriend on the first day she signed up, a decisive and obvious rejection of other people of the opposite sex.

Ji Su watched Qiao Lan's interview in person. He spoke logically, unlike the nervousness of other freshmen, and with a sense of humour that made him feel good.

The interviewer asked Qiao Lan why she studied psychology and Qiao Lan said she did it for one person.

A most important person.

Ji Su was in a bit of a trance, remembering that he had just finished his high school exams when his mother had finally divorced his father.

After living with her lunatic father for almost twenty years, she finally committed suicide in exchange for freedom, and after returning from resuscitation her father finally agreed to a divorce.

Ji Su thought it was all going to end, but her mother, who had been resuscitated, had gone mad.

The word insane can sum up too many situations, like his own father, for whom there is a technical term to describe an illness that will not heal for the rest of his life, but whom he habitually sees as a madman, and now his mother, who is insane and seeks every opportunity to commit suicide, with a severe depression that sometimes makes her not even recognise her own son, whom she has loved for over ten years.

Ji Su sometimes hates his father's death, but his relatives say it's not his fault because the disease is uncontrollable.

Since illness is uncontrollable, is it not controllable not to involve another person because of one's illness? If you already knew you were crazy, why did you marry your wife, for love of her?

Is this love?

It's selfish.

Ji Su lied to his schoolmates that he studied psychology because he wanted to be a profiler, which is true, but some of the things he said were also true, such as the fact that the school he most wanted to go to in the beginning was indeed a military school.

Only because of a sudden change of heart did he end up choosing psychology.

He also chose this profession for someone who chose another life because of a very important, no, most important person.

For someone to make such a choice and say such things, Ji Su believes that Qiao Lan must have had a story that he doesn't want to be told, and that he shares the same feelings that others can't understand.

Ji Su felt a strong sense of identification and belonging to Qiao Lan at this moment, as if she and Qiao Lan had some secret in common that no one else knew about.

This made Ji Su feel close to Qiao Lan, when it was only right that she should be closer to him.

Ji Su has unilaterally included Qiao Lan in his circle of life.

Pei Beijia cautions him not to mess around and ruin other people's relationships which is a trivial issue.

It's true that breaking up other people's relationships is a trivial matter, but this doesn't suit Qiao Lan and Tan Mo, who have lived in dysfunctional families for so long that Ji Su can see Tan Mo's difference without much effort.

Qiao Lan says she chose psychology for the sake of one person, in all probability Tan Mo, and continues to be jealous that Qiao Lan would go to such lengths for Tan Mo, but also feels good because Tan Mo is "different".

For Qiao Lan to study psychology for him, Ji Su can guarantee that Tan Mo's symptoms are not simple.

So how can his actions be called destroying a relationship when he is clearly saving Qiao Lan?

People with this kind of mental illness should not have love at all, no, they don't know what love is.

Not allowing the other half to have a life of his own, not allowing the other half to speak to anyone other than himself, even his own son.

How awful, all the people who should not have loved such a person, he did it for Qiao Lan's own good to steal her away like this, Qiao Lan is still too young and does not know anything, she will regret it after many years.

Ji Su is so cautious and careful because he doesn't want Qiao Lan to resent him since he is still in love.

He was clearly trying to do what was best for Qiao Lan, but Qiao Lan was always making things harder for him, like now, when Qiao Lan moved out without a word.

If you're at school, everything is easy to do, but outside, it can be difficult.

Ji Su The poor mood is obvious.

Ji Su is in a bad mood, Tan Mo is in a better mood than ever.

Qiao Lan and I bought all sorts of big things, furniture and sofas, before we had time to buy the rest of our daily necessities and dragged our girlfriend to experience his favourite oversized bathtub.

The girl's delicate skin looked more and more inviting under the water, and Tan Mo was fascinated as she kissed her way down from her shoulder, inch by inch.

......

The water was getting colder and Qiao Lan shivered a little, Tan Mo put his arm around her thin waist and pressed his chest against Qiao Lan's back and deliberately whispered in her ear.

"Shake what?"

The Tan Mo behind her was holding her so tightly that she could only cling to the edge of the tub with her hands and bite her lip before she made a sound that would make Tan Mo even more careless.

Not satisfied with the lack of sound, Tan Mo cupped Qiao Lan's chin and turned her face, biting her lips open, satisfied to hear the sound of suppressed sheen again.

Qiao Lan's voice was soft like a cat's purr, and Tan Mo turned his ear to hear Qiao Lan say that it hurt.

Ouch?

Tan Mo kissed her on the cheek, "Where?"

Qiao Lan's eyes welled up with tears, how could she say that?

She regretted it again; Tan Mo without the restraint was really too much to handle.

Qiao Lan, in the end, had to be ashamed, so she could only whisper that her knee hurt when she was asked.

Tan Mo is heartbroken.

The fierce look just then disappeared, and he kissed Qiao Lan gently on the knee like a puppy, finally feeling that the water had cooled, he carried her out, wrapped her in a towel and carried her downstairs.

By the time she is put to bed, Qiao Lan is already lightly asleep.

Tan Mo leans over the edge of the bed and stares at Qiao Lan's sleeping face for a long moment before getting up and quietly walking out to close the door and go back to cleaning up the messed up bathroom.

After being alone, this slowly settles down to feel how happy I am now.

If you have a class, you can wake up with the same alarm clock, and if you don't have a class, you can stay in bed and talk.

After finishing up, Tan Mo went back to the bedroom, pulled back the covers and laid down, then pulled Qiao Lan over to the other side.

After another week, Uncle Chan and Aunt Chan finally arrived and the family of four had a happy dinner together before coming back together and going back to their respective homes.

Uncle Chan and Aunt Chan were also new to the area, so it took a few days of work. Qiao Lan and Tan Mo had all the major items and just needed a variety of daily necessities and books.

The two large bedrooms, the other being a study as Tan Mo insisted on only buying a bed, have been left empty for the time being as Qiao Lan and Tan Mo bought a large bookcase.

At the end of the week, the two of them went out shopping, went to a bookstore and bought a lot of books, everything that Qiao Lan liked and Tan Mo liked.

In the evening we went to Uncle Chan Aunt Chan's place for dinner, came back from dinner and exercised for a while, then huddled together in the study to read a book.

In the study, apart from the bookcase, there is a tatami mat, so you can sit or lie down on it.

Looking at the book in his hand, he thought to himself that he would buy another massage instruction book some day so that both he and Qiao Lan could study it.

After knocking on the door, no one opened it and finally found the two reading in the study, Qiao Lan sitting and Tan Mo leaning over Qiao Lan's lap.

Aunt Chan smiles and laughs.

You have to squeeze together to read a book, you lean on me and I lean on you, you can't even hear the knock on the door.

Aunt Chan didn't want to disturb the two of them and put the fruit on the coffee table, came and went quietly, and then texted Qiao Lan on her mobile phone to tell them not to forget to eat the fruit.

Before meeting Qiao Lan, Aunt Chan never imagined that MoMo would one day be able to live a normal life, and now she sees him so happy.

Aunt Chan is very fortunate to have met Qiao Lan.
