CEO He : Please Don't Love Me

396  Leaving Lanlan Is Not An Option

"Woah!"

It was Liu Ji Fan who spoke for the first time and quite loudly. His eyes were wide but filled with amusement. He suddenly picked the glass of drink from the table without even knowing who had drunk from it before. But he didn't care and gulped it down in one go. Then looking toward He Jian, he wiped his fake tears and said dramatically. "My baby has finally grown up."

He Jian's lips twitched while all others except Shi Fegju laughed at Liu Ji Fan's actions. Ignoring Liu Ji Fan's exaggerated reaction, He Jian again looked out of the window. His blue eyes were focused on the girl and boy inside the garden. Both of them now looked happy as they looked at the ring in each other fingers with shy but joyful eyes. The girl's eyes were filled with shyness and love as she looked at the boy. It made He Jian wonder whether Mo Roulan would ever look at him like that. From the current circumstances, it almost seemed impossible. "Then why are you looking so grumpy?"

Liu Ji Faan asked He Jian curiously seeing that the man was still not looking happy at all. He knew that if He Jian had done such a thing then he must be very clear about his feelings now. Otherwise, he would have never done so. And if he was clear about his feelings then should not a man be happy after kissing the girl he likes.

That was what Liu Ji Fan thought. The question made He Jian look inside the room again. His blue eyes looking at Liu Ji Fan were slightly cold. After a few moments of silence, he finally spat out a few words reluctantly and coldly. "She ran away."

The private room again went silent at these words. Liu Ji Fan's eyebrows were raised in surprise and he asked "She ran away after you kissed her…in shyness?" n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

He Jian shook his head and sighed at the question indicating that things were not like this. But Fang Zhihan and Shen Weisheng had an understanding look on their faces. In the span of a few days, the two friends had made Mo Roulan a few times only but they were able to understand Mo Roulan really might have run away after He Jian had kissed her if only…     "She was not aware of your feelings? Jian, was she?"

It was Fang Zhihan who asked He Jian this question and He Jian looked at Fang Zhihan. Again, he took his own time in nodding his head to answer the question. "Jian. that was wrong."

He Jian narrowed his eyes at Fang Zhihan and said coldly. "Was the idea of kidnapping her to make her realize that she needs me not wrong?'

Fang Zhihan smiled sheepishly at this. He knew that he had been indeed very wrong at that time. The kind of girl Mo Roauln was…if He Jian had really done such a thing and Mo Roulan had come to know of the truth someday then she would have never looked at his face again!

And it would have been a big problem now that He Jian had feelings for her!

"Still…kissing her when she didn't even know about your feelings, it is wrong, Jian!"

It was Shen Weisheng who spoke this time. From the day, Shen Weisheng had found drugged Shen Youlin inside that room and had seen his sister's dependence on Mo Roulan, he had taken Mo Roulan as his own sister. His voice was slightly cold when he said "If someone else did the same to her just because that person had feelings for Mo Roulan, I am sure you would have destroyed that person by now."

He Jian understood Shen Weisheng's indication. He was referring to his threat to Shen Weisheng about Shen Youlin's closeness to Mo Roulan. He was indirectly implying that when his sister was doing the same, He Jian didn't like it and threatened him to stop her but now he was doing the same thing. He Jian frowned. It was his first kiss!

And he was sure that it was his Lanlan's first kiss also. He didn't want anyone to say that their first kiss was the wrong thing so he felt displeased by Shen Weisheng's words.   Blowing out the smoke from his lips, he held the cigarette in his fingers arrogantly. His eyes were cold and indifferent as he said "Lanlan is mine. It is not wrong to kiss her."

He Jian said possessively as he looked away from his friends. In fact. a part of his heart already knew that whatever he did was really wrong but he just didn't wish to accept it. He never noticed the shock in his friends' eyes. They have never seen him being so possessive of someone. The next shock came soon when He Jian suddenly turned to look inside the room again. His eyes were filled with frustration as he suddenly threw away the cigarette in his fingers on the table and said "But she was crying when she ran away!"

It was the first time they were seeing He Jian caring about someone else so much. The thing that bothered He Jian most was the lost look in Mo Roulan's eyes with which she had looked at him before she had run away. He didn't know what it was but perhaps he saw himself collapsing down in her eyes. He didn't like it. Every time he remembered that lost look in those tear-filled eyes, he would feel as if someone was tearing down his chest and he would feel suffocating even though he would find himself in such a spacious room. "Tsk…you didn't do right, Jian."

Liu Ji Fan said as he poured the wine into the glass.

"She didn't know about your feelings and you suddenly kissed her. Of course, she would cry and run away. I think you scared the girl."

Liu Ji Fan shook his head regretfully while Fang Zhihan sighed heavily.

The words made He Jian frown deeper and he asked "What can I do now?"

"Perhaps stay away from her."

Shen Weisheng suggested coldly but He Jian glared at him coldly and said.

"That's not even an option."
