CEO He : Please Don't Love Me

Chapter 132 - Win Back Your Friend

Exactly one and half hours later, a black-colored car stopped outside the company Liu Ji Fan worked in.

The driver opened the door and then ran to the door of back seat and  Liu Ji Fan stepped outside of the car. He was about to go to the other side of the car but the door of the other seat opened first and he saw that Tian Yuan had already stepped outside.

Liu Ji Fan's lips were pressed in a thin line but he didn't say anything. He stood at the same spot as Tian Yuan walked towards him and stood by his side.

After that, both of them stepped forward to go inside.

Tian Yuan knew that he should walk a step away from Liu Ji Fan because of his post as an assistant so he did the same.

However, he couldn't see the frown on Liu Ji Fan's forehead who noticed his behavior.

He stopped intentionally and waited for the man behind him to step forward.

Tian Yuan didn't notice his actions.

As soon as Tian Yuan stepped beside him, Liu Ji Fan grabbed his hand firmly and then started to walk forward.

Tian Yuan was startled but his legs were cooperating with Liu Ji Fan. He had a dumb expression on his face as he followed Liu Ji Fan. However, when he comprehended what was going on, he instantly started to struggle indicating that Liu Ji Fan should leave his hand.

However, the dog-man only held his hand more tightly.

Tian Yuan's face went pale when he saw that they were about to step inside the area where the working staff sits so he increased his struggle but his minimal strength was of no use against Liu Ji Fan.

Tian Yuan suddenly remembered Liu Ji Fan's evil smile and he start to understand the reason behind that.

He really wanted to beat the shit out of the man walking beside him but he knew that by showing his anger he would only provoke Liu Ji Fan. So he pleaded

"Ji Fan…don't do this."

But Liu Ji Fan just glanced at him once. His smile was so gentle that it suddenly seemed to have calmed down Tian Yuan's nervous heart.

  Tian Yuan shook his head to clear his thoughts. He started to think of something but the work was already done till he could find any way.

They were now amidst so many people that Tian Yuan lowered his head because of their scorching gaze.

He had never felt so much intimidated but today seemed to be very different.

He didn't wish to raise his head because he was afraid of what he would see in their eyes. 

He could already hear the whispers and gasps making him feel more and more afraid with every passing second.

Liu Ji Fan of course sensed his nervousness.

The hand he was holding was sweating because of nervousness and his heart seemed to be pricked by thorns.

Does Tian Yuan fear being seen like this with him?

He glanced at the people who seemed to have forgotten who he was. His one cold glance made them shudder and they instantly shut their mouth. 

Satisfied, he hugged Tian Yuan's waist and felt his body going instantly stiff.

He gently patted his back and traced his thumb across Tian Yuan's knuckles.

Before he had also felt nervous about this step of his but now he suddenly thought that whatever he did was right.

Liu Ji Fan doesn't want Tian Yuan to fear like this.

He wants her to walk with his head high when he is walking with him hand in hand.

They had not done any crime so why should Tian Yuan feel like a criminal. Why should he lower his eyes and feel intimidated by these useless people?

The next five minutes were very difficult for Tian Yuan.

He didn't raise his head even once as they stepped inside the elevator and Liu Ji Fan also didn't force him to do so.

At least Tian Yuan was showing his real self in front of him now. The one he knew how he should handle.

When the elevator opened, he took Tian Yuan outside and walked towards his office.

Tian Yuan still didn't raise his head even when they stepped inside his office.

Liu Ji Fa didn't feel discouraged he made Tian Yuan walk with him.

The next moment, Tian Yuan found himself sitting on a chair.

He finally raised his head and looked at the chair he was sitting on with a frown.

As he noticed everything around him, he saw Liu Ji Fan sitting beside himself on a chair.

"Let's start work now."

He heard Liu Ji Fan.

He looked so casual. He didn't seem to be affected by whatever happened outside.

Tian Yuan felt confused.

Wasn't Liu Ji Fan supposed to feel more depressed than him? After all, he was the CEO of such a big company and his subordinates now knew that he was in 'that'  kind of relationship with him.

However, Liu Ji Fan didn't give him any time to ask the questions inside his heart.

The next moment, he found a heavy stack of files in front of himself.

"Read them and separate the ones that look beneficial for the company." 

Liu Ji Fan said

When Tian Yuan was about to open his mouth, he interrupted him and said

"Baby, where do you wish to eat? If you finished your work by the afternoon then we will eat only in the office but if you didn't finish it then we will go on a date."

The words sounded like an alarm bell to Tian Yuan. No longer did he ask any question to Tian Yuan.

He suddenly picked up one of the files in front of him and started to do his work.

Liu Ji Fan smiled and patted Tian Yuan's head which the stinky bastard jerked away but Liu Ji Fan didn't mind.

He instead chuckled and started to do his own work while glancing at Tian Yuan in between his work.

"Miss Mo"

Cheng Yang called out to Mo Roulan as he marked the questions he didn't get in his notebook. Getting no response from the person beside him, he raised his head to look at Mo Roulan only to find her staring blankly at nothing.

"Miss Mo"

He called out again but got no response just like the previous time.

With a sigh, Cheng Yang closed his notebook and leaned against his chair.

He stared at Mo Roulan's side profile for a few moments without even blinking.

Then he raised his hand to shake her shoulder.

Mo Roulan was startled but came out of her trance.

"Huh…did you say something?"

She looked at Cheng Yang with her now composed face and asked him.

In response, Cheng Yang just looked at her for a few moments and then asked

"Are you alright?"

Mo Roulan went silent at his question.

She smiled tightly a moment later and said

"Of course, I am alright. What will happen to me?"

She saw Cheng Yang pressing his lips in a thin line.

Cheng Yang was again silent for a few moments.

"You know..you can share anything with me…just like I did.."

Mo Roulan was again silent.

How should she answer his question?

She just lowered down her head and the room remained silent for the next few seconds until Mo Roulan said finally.

"My best friend ended her friendship with me."

She whispered.

She didn't notice the small smile on Cheng Yang's lips when she finally said what was going on inside her mind.

A moment later, he asked Mo Roulan.

"Why?"

Mo Roulan shook her head in response and whispered

"I don't know."

"Then you should try to find out."

Cheng Yang said as he flipped the pages of his notebook.

  Mo Roulan raised her head to look at him but didn't say anything.

Cheng Yang didn't mind the silence and said

"If her absence from your life bothers, then you should at least give a try. Maybe what you find out will only strengthen her friendship with you."

Mo Roulan didn't show any change in her expression but inside her mind, she was pondering over Cheng Yang's words.   

Perhaps what Cheng Yang was saying is the truth.

A moment later, Mo Roulan suddenly felt her mind getting cleared and she nodded her head with a smile

"You are right. I gave up very easily. She has done so much for me. She deserves this at least from my side."

Cheng Yang also smiled and both of them started to go through the questions Cheng Yang couldn't solve.

Whilst speaking, Mo Roulan couldn't help but look at Cheng Yang proudly.

The boy who seemed to have given up on his life a few months ago just told her not to give up.

She felt very happing seeing this new Cheng Yang.

One hour later, she came out of Cheng Yang followed by Cheng Yang.

Both of them walked towards the exit gates of the Cheng family mansion while discussing something.

When Mo Roulan was about to step outside the Cheng family mansion, they saw Butler running towards them.

The Butler looked at Mo Roulan and then at Cheng Yang.

While panting he spoke with very difficulty.

"Young Master, The police is standing outside the mansion's gates.. They said that they are here to arrest Miss Mo Roulan."
