CEO He : Please Don't Love Me

The alarm clock beside the bed rang and Mo Roulan shut it down like every day and then got out of the blanket.

The sight of Shen Youlin sitting on the study table ad studying earnestly now no longer surprised her.

Two days have passed since the last test. The next test was today. During this period, she had been used to seeing Shen Youlin sitting in front of her as soon as she woke up and get out of her bed.

She had to say that Shen Youlin was working very hard. The day when Shen Youlin had given the last test, she bought a lot of books that described only the basic concepts of all the subjects she needed to study.

Mo Roulan had been surprised when she had come back from Cheng family's mansion and seen those books.

Thinking of Cheng yang, she smiled a little. It was a very peaceful smile..

Cheng Yang has improved quite a lot.

Yesterday when she had gone to his house she had found him talking to his mother, that too, quite nicely. 

He still speaks very less but he at least spoke whenever she asked him anything.

It seemed that he had told Mrs. Cheng everything and Mrs. Cheng had also accepted him. Perhaps he had also understood that he was not at fault for his father's death.

Mo Roulan didn't ask him anything. She has already achieved her purpose and Cheng Yang was now alright so she didn't want to meddle much in his affairs.

Now she was doing her right job that is tutoring Cheng Yang. He had resumed his studies.

Everything was going so well that Mo Roulan felt she had left behind her past now.

Seeing Shen Youlin and Cheng Yang she somewhere felt that she had saved a part of her past self from getting destroyed.

Shen Youlin was still in the withdrawal phase.

In two days, Mo Roulan had seen Shen Youlin struggling to resist the urge of taking drugs quite a lot of times.

When she would be near her, she would try to divert Shen Youlin's attention to something else or would take her outside to have a walk.

However, the problem aroused when she was not with Shen Youlin.

Just yesterday, when she had come back from tutoring Cheng Yang and stepped inside her room, she couldn't find  Shen Youlin.

She checked the whole apartment but didn't find Shen Youlin anywhere.

For a moment, she thought that Shen Youlin couldn't stop herself and went back to the bar. However, in the end, she found Shen Youlin in the bathroom.

She had been startled seeing her condition.

She was soaked with sweat at that time and constantly murmuring something. It was something normal during the phase when one tries to leave the drugs.

She had also gone through it many times. But still, when she saw Shen Youlin she felt very pained.

But she could do nothing except accompanying Shen Youlin during her difficult times.

  It was something that Shen Youlin had to bear herself.

"Good morning."

She smiled when Shen Youlin wished her and she said back the same words while walking towards the bathroom.

An hour later, both the girls came out of Mo Roulan's room and had their breakfast.

"Have more both of you. You are getting thin day by day."

Lin Qianru said while looking at her daughter and Mo Roulan just stayed silent. Actually, it didn't matter how much she ate. Her mother would always say that she was getting thin.

She wondered whether her mother's eyes see different things from her eyes.

  "Youlin, you used to eat more before…why have you also started to eat so less like Roulan?"

Lin Qianru looked at Shen Youlin's plate with a frown and said

A moment later, she looked very sad as she asked

"Is it because that you don't like the food cooked by Auntie anymore?"

Shen Youlin's eyes widened when she heard Lin Qianru's words. She didn't know whether she should laugh or cry. She was really touched by Roulan mother's concern for her. Even her mother doesn't know what she liked to eat but Lin Qianru knew everything about her tastes.

Helpless she looked at Mo Roulan who raised her hands in surrender and shook her head in 'no'.

Mo Roulan knew that at this point it was difficult for her to coax her mother especially when she doesn't know how to coax anyone.

She could only speak whatever was in her heart. To coax someone, she would have to prepare some lines first.

Her mother and her cooking…she can't speak anything for that. 

Shen Youlin sighed and stood up from her chair and hugged Lin Qianru tightly.

"Auntie, you cook such delicious food that I have started to gain weight."

But Lin Qianru seemed to dislike her words because she frowned and said

"What rubbish…I don't see the weight you have gained."

Shen Youlin was really at the loss of words now. Seeing this, Mo Roulan quietly covered her mouth and laughed silently with lowered head.

'That's the problem. Her mother can't see the weight gained because of her food.'

In the end, Shen Youlin had to eat everything Lin Qianru served her.

Mo Roulan silently thanked the god because her mother's attention was now no longer on her plate.

Being stuffed with food, Shen Youlin rubbed her bloated stomach with a sigh.

"Dear, How many months-long are you?"

Mo Roulan asked as she placed her hand on Shen Youlin's bloated stomach.

Shen Youlin didn't feel offended, instead, smiled softly when she saw Mo Roulan laughing at herself quietly.

These few moments of teasing each other, both of them enjoyed very much.

Slowly and slowly Mo Roulan was realizing that there was also some other side of her. Mischievous, carefree, and lively and she enjoyed whenever she was like that.

However, this side of hers only comes out in front of Shen Youlin.

Different people bring out the different sides of your personality. How true it was!

Perhaps that's why she cherished her friendship with Shen Youlin very much because she brought out a cheerful side of hers.

As both the girls sat inside the car after teasing each other, they didn't notice the figure hiding behind the trees far away.

There was the sound of 'clicks' two or three times as the car drove away and then the person walked away from there.

------

The private room was filled with Fang Zhihan's loud voice and laughers until the door opened the two people inside the room saw who was at the door.

Fang  Zhihan smiled goofily and said

"So, you finally remembered your concubines, Your Majesty?"

Fang Zhihan said and even pouted like a spoiled woman and walked towards He Jian coquettishly. However, He Jian just glanced at him coldly and walked past by him as if he was just air.

Fang Zhihan didn't mind and walked to sit on his seat beside Shen Weisheng.

"Jian, I have not expected you to come so early."

"I am at the accurate time."

He Jian said without any expression on his face and Fang Zhihan raised his eyebrows at his words. He silently took out his phone and checked the time.

Jian was right. He was really on the time.

"Then, is it Fengju who is late today?"

Fang Zhihan nodded his head and put his phone at the table. After that, he looked back at He Jian and said

"So, Jian how's going everything with your girl? Did you do anything?"

Hearing about this topic, He Jian seemed to remember something and frowned.

Fang Zhhihan sighed when he saw this because he thought that He Jian was still thinking of ways to make Mo Roulan accept his help.

"Jian, why are you so hesitant? See, if you can't do this then tell me. I will do this and I promise you that she will not be harmed in any way. I will tell my people to abduct her and then you can save her. I can assure you that, in the end, she will be so thankful to you that she will not refuse any of your requests. Even if that is …."

He Jian looked at him coldly making Fang Zhihan shut his mouth before he could say anything inappropriate,

"Just keep your vulgar methods to yourself."

He Jian said coldly to Fang Zhihan and then started to check some important mails on her phone.   

However, the next moment, he remembered something again. His people had told him that the girl with Mo Roulan was the youngest daughter of Shen family that day. He looked at Shen Weisheng and was about to say something when the door of the private room opened and everyone except He Jian looked towards the door.

Shi Fengju stepped inside the room but he was not alone.

Shen Weisheng frowned when he saw the person standing beside Shi Fengju and stood up from his chair. 

While Fang Zhihan raised his eyebrows in curiosity.

"Hello little lady, you seem to be a bit familiar to me.

Fang Zhihan saw that the girl in front of him smiled softly as she held Shi Fengju's arm.

"Has Brother Zhihan already forgotten me? I am Yiling….Shen Yiling."
