Love Comes After Marriage novel Chapter 1202

YunyiYunyi

5 years passed. During this time, Mo Zichen worked his way up to the position of senior lecturer and was now working at one of the top universities. He also moved from his small apartment to a luxurious apartment near his work.

Not too long ago, someone moved into the apartment next to Mo Zichen. But, they renovated through the night, making it hard for Mo Zichen to get any sleep. This was not good for his mental state.

So, Mo Zichen decided to contact property management, however, they could not provide him with a resolution. In the end, he had no choice but to wait until the neighbor moved in to see who the uneducated person was. How could someone have absolutely no consideration for others?

University lectures weren’t as tightly scheduled as junior high school classes, so Mo Zichen only had 4 lectures a week and spent the rest of his time reading books. Because of this, his eyes began to get a little short-sighted.

When he was at home, he never parted from his glasses, but it only made him more charming.

The 26-year-old Mo Zichen had now grown into a mature young man, but he was still on his own. To satisfy his boredom, he adopted a Russian Blue cat called Muddy. The cat was a stray that he saved from the streets, and at the time that it was found, it was so hungry that it was trying to eat mud – hence the name.

That afternoon, Mo Zichen was at home preparing for his next lecture when he heard the sound of furniture being moved into the apartment next door. He guessed that his ‘good neighbor’ was moving in, so he got up from his desk and went to open his front door.

As soon as he opened the door, he saw the back of a short-haired woman standing in the hallway. Her back was straight and she had a unique presence to her.

“Please be gentle with the sofa…”

Mo Zichen walked over, intending to bring up the issue regarding the renovations, but, as soon as the woman turned around, he was stunned speechless.

He never expected to meet an old friend in such a way.

This old friend…was Qian Lan! But, judging from her expression, she did not look surprised at all.

Obviously, this was no coincidence.

“You can leave after you’ve moved the dining table inside.” After instructing the removalists, Qian Lan walked confidently over to Mo Zichen and stretched out her hand, “Long time no see.”

“You…”

“This is my temporary home…” Qian Lan smiled. “I’ll be back to live here every now and then.”

“Did you know I was living here from the start?”

“No. I found out after I got the apartment,” Qian Lan replied. “But, don’t worry, I will only stay here once a month. It shouldn’t affect you too much. I hope your partner doesn’t mind.”

The Qian Lan standing before Mo Zichen was more mature, lively and decisive than before. She was very much like someone from the military.

“I’m still single,” Mo Zichen shook his head.

“I see. Well, I don’t have much time, so I’m going to get back to it. Next time you’re free, let’s have a meal together.”

“No need, you continue with what you were doing,” Mo Zichen said before he returned to his home and closed the door.

So many years had passed since they went their separate ways. But, perhaps, he was the only one that felt a little awkward.

Soon, the movement next door stopped. After Qian Lan left, Mo Zichen’s​ heart calmed down and he returned to reading his book. But, he couldn’t seem to focus.

He ended up smiling to himself bitterly…

In the end, Qian Lan really did what she said. After moving in, she only lived there once and spent the rest of her time at the army base.

Mo Zichen didn’t know what military rank Qian Lan held, but he knew that she first entered the military through the military university.

After 5 years, many things had now changed.

In fact, every now and then, he would hear some movement coming from next door and he’d see a young man visiting Qian Lan’s home. Mo Zichen assumed that this man was Qian Lan’s new boyfriend.
