16 MU LAN

Hey Beloved Readers.

This is your Happy-go-lucky Author with 2nd chapter of the day.

After writing this chapter I thought it shouldn't be the chapter's name.

There were two other options but I immediately reject it because it would become the spoiler.

The third chapter will be after I wake up because after four hours exam I'm already beaten. If I write another chapter write now I'll be dead for sure.

So please be patient.

There's also another reason why I won't write the chapter now.

After you read the chapter, you'll know. ;)

"I wish I could gather more information about you but there was a tiny problem that made me go nowhere." Mu Feng said with a sorry face.

"What was the problem?" Hua Lan asked in a cautious tone.

"I thought if I searched your information I would be able to find out the reason they were chasing you. But..." he paused for a moment, then continued, "All of your information was wiped out from the Earth. There isn't a single shred of evidence that there is a woman called Hua Lan."

'Wiped out?'

'You call this a tiny problem?!'

Hua Lan's head was spinning. She had started to think that there was something wrong with his head.

"W-why... How…?" As she started to shake, Mu Feng became more helpless.

"I really wish I could find any piece of information about you. I'm very sorry for that." He bowed deeply.

Seeing him on the verge of tears, her heart melted.

She saw other documents but couldn't find anything useful.

"I request you to be cautious. There are people out there trying to kill you. Can you imagine what would happen if they find you."

There were no flaws in his acting.

"Then what will I do? Where will I go?" Hua Lan didn't find anything to step on or take shelter.

"Sister Lan Lan, please don't worry about it. My big brother took you as her family. [A/N: You mean 'wife'.] We see you as our family. Please don't leave us."

Then he started to sob a little, his eyes got all teary.

"A-and… I've never had a sister. I always wanted a sister whom I could pamper and she would love me, play with me, travel with me, take me to her school, scold me like an elder, cook for me, would wait at home for me, eat with me, sleep wi-"

"Okay, okay, I understand. Then please promise me that after I get my memory back that you will let me leave?"

"Sure! As long as Sister Lan Lan is happy." He brimmed.

'Huh! As if!' He smiled devilishly inside.

"However you can't go out with that name of yours since there are people trying to kill you. So I gave you our family name with the permission of big brother Mu Liang." He continued.

"Your family name?" She looked quizzically.

"Yes, from now on you are officially Mu Lan." He smiled proudly.

"So you people are adopting me?"

Kufff!

He coughed violently.

Mu Feng was taken off guard and she attacked.

'Why do I feel like I just became a dad?' He wanted to scream.

However, this wasn't the end.

"Are you alright?" Hua Lan got worried and gave him a glass of water.

He took the glass and drank the water and didn't care if she had used it earlier.

He was practically dying here.

'What if she call big brother his brother "Elder brother Liang Liang"? My brother would die from the shock!' He was horrified.

"Actually sister, I… no, *we* need your help with something."

"You people helped me too much. If there's anything I can do please don't hesitate to tell me."

In her eyes, Mu Feng had become a cute little brother. He meant no harm and really worked hard to search the truth about her. He even went to the point to give her, a stranger, their family name for her own safety. It would be better if she could do anything for them.

Seeing her taking off her armor he placed his final trap.

"My grandfather has fallen ill." He looked downhearted.

"Oh dear, will he be alright?" She felt sympathy.

"The doctor said there is no hope anymore. He also said that grandpa doesn't have more than a month." He almost shed his tears.

'Sorry grandpa. Don't get mad at me yet. It's for your future great-grandchildren. So please deal with it.'

"Oh..." She felt sadness enveloping her.

"Now he's pressuring my big brother to marry but he doesn't have anyone in his heart. And he's not good with them. We don't know where to find a proper girl for him." He looked very sad.

"All you have to do is search for a woman you believe in… wait." Suddenly she caught something off.

"Yes, Sister Lan Lan you're absolutely correct!" His eyes sparkled.

"I-I said wait!" She panicked.

"Please marry my brother!"
