Mu Liang coaxed her. "I'm praising the both of you. If you didn't add water, it wouldn't be cooked and if it wasn't prepared deliciously, I couldn't have the proper taste. It's a perfect instant noodles. You did a good job."

He praised her with open heart. He didn't dare to mention that this junk food wasn't good for health this late night.

But to Mu Lan, the more he praised her, she felt that the more these praises were for the noodles.

To changed the subject, Mu Liang said, "I thought that you were asleep. Why are you still awake?"

"I was working on the Island Project and the new video game. I haves till some work to do. After that, I will be finished with video game." Mu Lan replied. With 'slurp' sound she was eating the noodles.

Mu Liang attentively gazed at her and said, "Don't work too hard or you will have panda eyes."

"Why? Won't you love me if I have panda eyes?" Mu Lan raised an eye brow.

"Even if you turn into a panda, I will marry you and love you." Mu Liang rubbed his chin with his index finger. He continued, "Actually, it would be better if you turn into a panda. You will be softer and will be easier to hold and hug, especially in the bed. What do you think?"

Mu Liang was clearly joking and Mu Lan knew it. She replied, "If I turn into panda, I will go to the forest and marry a panda. As a panda, how can give birth to children of a human? They will turn into half panda half human. If I become a mate of a panda, I will give birth to a panda."

Mu Liang smirked. "It's not a bad idea. Let's both become panda and live in the woods. We will have lots of panda kids."

Mu Lan couldn't take it anymore and let out a loud laugh. Mu Liang also joined her.

What a future plan!

-----

The next day, Mu Lan went to the school to look around in the campus. She was already a legend before she knew it. Her paintings were all over the places.

Mu Lan smiled and saw her masterpieces proudly.

"Aren't you Ms. Lan?" A man said from her behind.

Mu Lan turned around and saw a familiar face. "You are Arthur."

Arthur was Yan Su's childhood friend who was related to the US Mafia. In the end, his wife Clara and Mu Liang all together saved him and gave Arthur and Clara a new life.

Arthur smiled graciously. "It's me. I'm honored that you remembered me."

Mu Lan said in reply, "It's good to see you happy."

Arthur replied, "If it wasn't for you and for friends, I wouldn't be able to see the love of my life again. Our past may be dark. But nothing is more important than the present peaceful lovable life."

His eyes were quiet and filled with glee.

Mu Lan was taken aback upon hearing what he said.

Our past may be dark. But nothing is more important than the present peaceful lovable life.

The present is more important than anything.

Mu Lan asked, "Don't you dislike your past? Don't you feel that you don't deserve to lead a happy life because of past?"

She wasn't asking to know what he felt about it. She wanted to learn from him. She wished to approve herself.

Arthur didn't mind her question. He simply walked with Mu Lan and sat under a big tree.

His answer for her questions was, "Look, in the past, I was happy. I had a life, a great future. Then everything turned upside down. I lost my love, my child, my only family. I became a sex machine, a robot. I was hopeless. I never thought that I will be able to see Clara again, let alone being with her. Once, I was verge on breaking down and someone said that I still had a life. In this life anything could happen. There was something called miracle. As long as I lived I had a chance to have that miracle. If I believed in that, it would come to me."

Arthur looked at her and continued, "Ms. Lan, you were the miracle in our lives. If it wasn't for all of your credits, the two lives would have had their endings. Because of my dark past, I'm here now living a happy life. Then, why should I dislike my past? I don't want to go back to my past, but I feel proud of it because I overcame this obstacle. I told you didn't I? No matter how dark the past was, as long as the present was bright, you need be thankful to your past and move forward. Because of who you were in the past, what you are in the present now."

'In other words, if my past makes me stronger now, no matter how dark it is, I have to be thankful to it for it's teaching and move to the brighter side.' Mu Lan smiled.

Her past wasn't pure either. It was full of so many hardships and pain. She still recalled the throbbing feeling she had after seeing that guy. She couldn't imagine what she had gone through to be able to feel such strong emotion.

However, a miracle happened to her. And that was Mu Liang. He was her miracle. She lost her memory and got a brand new life, all because of him. He gave her a new chance, a new love, a new family, a new circle of friends.

If she hadn't had a past like that, she wouldn't be able to meet Mu Liang. So, her past was a blessing for her. She shouldn't fear or hate it. She should smile and acknowledge it; and then she had to move to her bright present without looking back, without any regret.

This way, eventually she would be the happiest person in this world.
