CEO He : Please Don't Love Me

Chapter 371  What Would Shen Youlin Have Done...

"Secret…"

Shen Youlin whispered with a pale face.

She had a secret but why was Shen Weisheng asking her this.

"Why are you asking me that?"

Her voice came out a little harsh when she asked

"Why are you asking me that?"

She was scared. She was scared that Shen Weisheng had found out her secret.

If he had…will he also abandon her now?

Shen Youlin tried to assure herself that it didn't matter but even she knew that she was just lying to herself.

It did matter.

After all, she was also a human being and she felt hurt too.

All of her thoughts came to halt when Shen Weisheng spoke again.

"Everyone has secrets. I have too, Youlin. I was just asking you."

Shen Weisheng spoke very softly this time as if he could see what was going inside Shen Youlin's mind…as if he was trying to comfort her.

Shen Youlin indeed felt relieved at these words.

The silence prevailed inside the car again and it continued until the car reached the mansion.

Shen Weisheng stopped the car and Shen Youlin immediately got out.

She didn't look at Shen Weisheng even once as she went inside the mansion and then to her room.

It was after almost half an hour later, Shen Youlin came out of her room.

She frowned when she looked down from the floor her room was in. She could see Shen Weisheng sitting inside the living room with his head resting on the headrest of the sofa.

Her heart was suddenly filled with guilt.

She had come back to accompany Shen Weisheng because he was missing their father but here she was dealing with her own emotions.

Shen Youlin immediately climbed down the stairs and went to the living room.

"Are you alright?"

She asked as soon as she was inside the living room.

Shen Weisheng, who had his eyes closed, opened them immediately and raised his head to look at Shen Youlin.

"You didn't sleep."

He asked in surprise as he saw Shen Youlin sitting on the couch beside him.

Shen Youlin shook her head as she picked a pillow and placed it on her lap.

"No, I am not feeling sleepy."

Shen Weisheng nodded his head and then stared at nothing in particular. He wondered if he should tell Shen Youlin that he knew her secret.

Shen Weisheng remembered that the doctor from the rehab centre had warned him that it was not good to provoke a person who had just come out of rehabilitation and had gone through whatever Shen Youlin went through.

It can harm Shen Youlin mentally and force her to go back to what she was.

So he didn't wish to scare her by telling her that he knew her secret.

Shen Weisheng came out of his trance when he heard Shen Youlin asking

"What happened?"

He shook his head lightly and there was again silence inside the living room for a long time. Shen Youlin silently sat there accompanying her brother not even knowing what was going inside his mind.

She thought that Shen Weisheng must be missing their father very much to behave like this …but why was it so sudden!

But Shen Weisheng didn't look ready to tell her anything either!

Hence the brother and sister sat there worrying about each other but never showing their thoughts to each other.

"I have a friend."

Shen Weisheng spoke suddenly.

Shen Youlin swiftly looked towards him. She frowned in displeasure and asked him immediately

"Are you talking about He Jian?"

Shen Weisheng was startled for a moment as he sensed Shen Youlin's displeasure and then he chuckled suddenly

"No, some other friend."

Shen Youlin sighed in relief. She really didn't want to talk about He Jian. That man…

she didn't like him at all.

"So what happened to this friend of yours?"

Shen Youlin asked curiously

"This friend of mine had a different sexuual orientation."

Shen Youlin froze immediately. She looked at Shen Weisheng as she tried to understand what he was really trying to imply.

However, Shen Weisheng was staring at the front. His face looked blank and Shen Youlin was unable to understand what he was thinking inside his mind.

As if he never noticed Shen Youlin's gaze on himself, Shen Weisheng continued

"He likes someone but he is scared to tell the other person about his feelings."

He…

Shen Youlin sighed in relief.

It seems that Shen Weisheng really had such a friend and he was not talking about her. She breathed deeply and tried to listen to what he was saying. However, when she registered his words inside her mind, she couldn't help but feel again that he was talking about her.

Afraid to accept his feelings…was not she also afraid to accept her feelings in front of Mo Roulan …

"So what did he do?"

She couldn't help but ask.

Shen Weisheng turned to look at her. His face was blank as he saw the anticipation on his sister's face. She really seemed to wish to hear the answer to her question.

Shen Weisheng turned to look at the front again and said

"He didn't tell him. He continued being his friend but while doing this, he also took advantage of the other person's ignorance to satisfy himself secretly."

Shen Youlin swallowed as she remembered the times she had tried to kiss Mo Roulan whenever the latter was sleeping deeply. Though it could never happen, she had tried every time but at the last moment, either she would give up or something would happen.

She was suddenly more curious to know what happened next to Shen Weisheng's friend and hence she asked

"Then?"

"The person he liked came to know of his feelings and whatever he had been doing while keeping him in the dark."

Shen Youlin's breath hitched inside her throat and Shen Weisheng continued this time without even being asked to.

"The person felt very hurt…not because he didn't like my friend's sexual orinetation but because he was being lied to all this time…because my friend was taking advantage of him by keeping him in the dark."

Shen Youlin's head was lowered when Shen Weisheng suddenly looked at her and called her out.

"Huh?"

She asked in confusion and her body stilled when Shen Weisheng asked her

"What would you have done if you were in his place?"
