Touch your heart
Qin Yan didn't know why but she felt a great sense of unease in her heart. She looked in the direction Qin Mufeng went in and wanted to call him back.
Qin Mufeng's kneeling down had dealt a huge blow to Qin Yan's anger. Her big brother, the only family member who cared for her was in this state because of her.
She looked at the photo plate and although she knew that she was not the person in the photos, she could feel the love in the photos. The original owner was smiling like a flower in all the pictures. On the other hand, Qin Mufeng had a doting and cheerful smile in every one of the pictures.
Something stirred in Qin Yan's heart and she could not bear to throw away the gift. In fact, she wanted to preserve and cherish it.
Thinking of Qin Mufeng, Qin Yan decided to meet him the next day. Her anger and disappointment had disappeared by this time and she also wanted to patch up with her brother.
Now that she had no negative emotions in her heart, Qin Yan felt relieved. Her lips curved up as she thought of how happy Qin Mufeng would be after patching up. She returned to her room happily.
As she reached her room, Qin Yan saw Zhou Daxin and Huang Jiajia waiting for her worriedly. On the other hand, Ma Haina had a sarcastic expression on her face.
As soon as Huang Jiajia saw her, she ran towards Qin Yan, "Yan Yan, are you okay? Is that guy harassing you?" Huang Jiajia fired a list of questions to Qin Yan.
"Calm down calm down, let her first come inside," Zhou Daxin pulled Huang Jiajia back and made way for Qin Yan to enter the room.
Qin Yan walked to her bed and sat down keeping the photo plate on her bed for now. Zhou Daxin and Huang Jiajia were still looking at her worriedly.
Seeing Qin Yan settle down, Zhou Daxin asked, "Qin Yan, we have been asking you for so long but you haven't answered our questions. Who is that guy? Is he harassing you?"
Qin Yan was puzzled by the situation. She could not comprehend what Zhou Daxin was trying to say.
Without waiting for Qin Yan to reply, Huang Jiajia interrupted, "Yes, Yan Yan, if he is harassing you, we should complain to the teacher. Who knows what he will do! What will our actions be then! It's better if we report this to the teacher."
Qin Yan stared at her roommates with her eyes wide open, "What the hell are you saying?"
Till now, Zhou Daxin and Huang Jiajia had just asked Qin Yan about Qin Mufeng. But as she was angry with him, she didn't wish to talk about him. But where did this harassment come from! Also what is this complaint about! Qin Yan was totally puzzled.
As she was trying to understand everything, a sarcastic voice interrupted her thoughts, "Why would she complain to the teacher! Won't she lose a pursuer then? How would she enjoy the attention of guys then?" Ma Haina mocked Qin Yan openly.
Hearing Ma Haina, Qin Yan could finally put things into place. She now understood where all this was coming from. She calmed down and smiled, "Yes, I don't wish to file a complaint to the teacher."
Huang Jiajia: "But..."
"What would a teacher say in a fight between siblings!" Qin Yan interrupted Huang Jiajia.
"Sibling?" Zhou Daxin was confused.
Qin Yan smiled at the naivety of her roommates, "Yes, the pursuer and harasser you are talking about is my blood related big brother!"
"What!" Zhou Daxin and Huang Jiajia jumped up in surprise. Ma Haina on the other hand had an indescribable expression on her face.
"Then why were you ignoring him?" Huang Jiajia again questioned Qin Yan.
Qin Yan sighed, "Didn't I say that we had a fight? He was coaxing me after making me angry!"
Zhou Daxin and Huang Jiajia finally heaved a sigh of relief and nodded in understanding. The matter they were thinking about was totally different from how they had imagined. Thinking of how they thought of Qin Yan's brother as her pursuer, both of them felt embarrassed. Their faces turned red as they didn't dare to face Qin Yan.
Qin Yan laughed lightly looking at her roommates' embarrassment. To ease them up, she continued, "My brother is a student of business management course in Beijing University itself. He is also a top student," she exclaimed proudly.
"Really?"
"Yes, look my brother gave this gift to me today. It comprises of every stage of our lives from childhood till adulthood.."
Qin Yan chatted with her roommates about Qin Mufeng happily. Ma Haina on the contrary felt like she had been slapped heavily. She looked at Qin Yan with unconcealable hatred in her eyes.

In the boys' dormitory.
Qin Mufeng was unaware that Qin Yan had forgiven him. He returned to his room in a despondent state. His roommates knew that something was wrong with him but even after asking when Qin Mufeng did not reveal anything, they decided to keep mum.
Qin Mufeng sat on his bed depressed. He had lost weight as he could not eat happily knowing that his little sister was angry with him. His roommates felt bad after seeing him like this, but there was nothing they could do.
Qin Mufeng shook his head to let go of his depressing thoughts and took his clothes to freshen up.
When he came out of the washroom, he checked his phone to see a missed call from Qin Muran. He was not in a mood to speak to anyone but thinking that Qin Muran might need something, he called her back.
"Muran."
"Brother, I have been calling you from such a long time. Why didn't you pick up?" Qin Muran sounded angry.
"I am sorry, I was freshening up," Qin Mufeng said with a sigh.
Qin Muran sensed something wrong with her brother's voice and did not continue to be angry, "It's okay. I called to ask you if you can have dinner with me tomorrow? It's been a while since we met. I miss you!" Qin Muran said.
"Okay," Qin Mufeng agreed although he didn't want to meet anyone. He couldn't break his sister's heart especially when she said that she missed him.
"Yay! I'll send you the location tomorrow. Let's meet up!" Qin Muran hung up the call happily.
Qin Mufeng looked at the phone in his hands and revealed a sad smile. 'How great it would have been if his family was united!' he thought, 'Would he never be able to have a comfortable meal with his whole family!' Unfortunately, he wouldn't be able to. After so much had happened, there was no way that Qin Yan would return to the Qin family. Qin Mufeng shook his head in disappointment before retiring for the day.

The next day at Global Shopping Mall.
Compared to New World Shopping Mall, which was located in a more remote area, this mall was like how its name had suggested. It carried international famous brands from all over the world.
Compared to the area where New World Shopping Mall would be built, this place wasn't crowded on work days. However, on public holidays, this mall would be packed.
Qiao Qing was obviously excited. Qin Yan also was happy as she had added Qin Mufeng to her shopping list as well. She wanted to buy something for her brother to surprise him that evening.
Obviously, the first person on her list was her moonpie.
Qiao Qing and Qin Yan thus strolled into the jewellery section.
The whole level was filled with various brands.
Qiao Qing and Qin Yan went shopping separately.
Qin Yan spotted a pair of diamond cufflinks. Next to the cufflinks was a brooch of the same design.
Such a combination was rare.
Especially when the design was so exquisite.
She liked the way Xi Ting unbuttoned his sleeves. He looked so elegant, refined and alluring.
And that brooch with a matching design…
She thought that he would be delighted if she bought it and gave it to him as a present.
"Miss, this couple accessory set is named Touch Your Heart. It's designed by Emil, the famous jewelry designer in Milan. The combination of the cufflinks and brooch is completely innovative. The meaning behind the set is so beautiful and romantic. The cufflinks represent the pulse, and the brooch is the heartbeat. The heart beats for each other, and touches each other's heart. Isn't that wonderful?"
The shop assistant beamed as she introduced the brooch and cufflinks to Qin Yan. Qin Yan, who was already satisfied, scrutinized the brooch and cufflinks in her hands, feeling even more pleased.
Touch Your Heart…
Touch your heart…1
"Yes, I want this…"
"Touch Your Heart, I want it!"
A beautiful and clear voice sounded suddenly beside Qin Yan. At the same time, a slender and fair hand reached out and pointed at the items in her hand.
