CEO He : Please Don't Love Me

395  "I Kissed Lanlan"

Inside the private room, He Jian was leaning agains the couch. He had a cigarette in his hands. Fang Zhihan, Shen Weisheng, and Shi Fengju, the three of them looked at each other and then at the cigarette in He Jian's hands. He Jian smoked very rarely. The last time they have seen him smoking was perhaps five years ago when he had come from the countryside after the kidnapping incident. At that time, it was because no one had been able to find Mo Roulan when she had disappeared suddenly from the place where He Jian had been kidnapped. He Jian had been worried immensely at that time because there was a possibility that those abductors had taken Mo Roulan away with them. He had looked for Mo Roulan everywhere. That was perhaps the first time, his friends had seen him caring for someone so much. His search only ended when He Zhaung forcefully sent him out of the country. He Jian had protested. He had not agreed to leave the country until the police had found one of the men who was involved with the kidnappers. It was that man who had given them the information that they never took Mo Roulan with them but he didn't know where Mo Roulan was now. It was only after that, He Jian had agreed to leave China and HeZhuang had been relieved. Because he had not been safe in China at that time. However, even after that, He Jian secretly continued his search. "So what happened?"

It was Fang Zhihan who asked this question finally. The smoke escaped He Jian's lips as he lazily leaned again the sofa. His blue eyes that were looking out of the window outside at the road suddenly moved to look at Fang Zhihan and then he looked away indifferently.

Fang Zhihan raised his eyebrows and couldn't help but laugh as he said "Are you grumpy, Jian?"

"Who is grumpy?"

A voice sounded in the private room as soon as Fang Zhihan finished his question and everyone looked towards the door.

Fang Zhihan, Shen Weisheng, and Shi Fengju immediately stood up from their seats when they saw who the person at the door was. "Ji Fan, when did you come back?"

One by one, the three of them stepped forward and hugged Liu Ji Fan. Everyone had a smile on their lips as they patted each other's back and asked about their well-being. Liu Ji Fan paused amidst his actions when he noticed that He Jian had not gotten up from his seat at all. He smiled and walked towards the single-seat couch, He Jian was sitting on. Liu Ji Fan couldn't help but raise his eyebrows when he saw that He Jian had looked at him but he looked away with indifferent eyes and continued to smoke the cigarette. Confused and amused, he turned to look at Fang Zhihan as if asking 'what happened'.

Fang Zhihan sighed and then shrugged his shoulders as if indicating that he didn't know the answer. Liu Ji Fan nodded his head and turned to look at the front again. With an amused smile on his lips, he said "So it is you who is grumpy, huh?'

Liu Ji Fan asked as he sat down on the couch that was placed by He Jian's side. The other three friends also followed and sat down one by one. Fang Zhihan was not worried about He Jian now. If Liu Ji Fan was here then by doing this or that, he would find out what is wrong with He Jian. Liu Ji Fan stretched out his hand and picked a cigarette from the table. He was about to light it with a lighter when he paused suddenly and then a few moments later, he put it down on the table again. Fang Zhihan, Shen Weisheng, and Shi Fengju who noticed his actions looked at each other and it was Fang Zhihan who asked "What is wrong today? The one who doesn't smoke is smoking and the one who smokes is not smoking. What got your pants twisted, my dear grumpy old men?"

Shen Weisheng and Shi Fengju laughed when they heard these words. On the other hand, Liu Ji Fan just smiled and said "My baby doesn't like when I smoke."

The private room went silent at these words. He Jian silently continued to smoke as he looked outside the window while Fang Zhihan tried to find out more from Liu Ji Fan about who this baby was. However, Liu Ji Fan merely smiled and didn't reveal anything. These days, he had again started to pursue Tian Yuan in a more gentlemanly way. He would maintain his distance from him but he would always be there in the morning when Tian Yuan would step out of his room with the bouquet of flowers in his hands, He would cook the food for him and then try to do something that would make both of them spend some more time together. Tian Yuan looked annoyed in the first few days, however, Liu Ji Fna was noticing that he had started to cooperate with him now and that only raised his hopes more. Coming to City H would be more good for their progressing relationship. That was what Liu Ji Fan thought and for all this, he was very thankful to He Jian. Liu Ji Fan turned his head to look at his friend and he saw him looking out of the window. Following his gaze, he found that He Jian was looking at a boy in the garden who was proposing to a girl. The girl had perhaps accepted and that's why they were hugging each other right now with a shy bit joyful smile on their lips. Liu Ji Fan's eyes flickered suddenly and he looked at He Jian swiftly.

"Did something happen between you and that girl, Mo Roulan?"

The temperature of the private room suddenly went down and everyone immediately understood that Liu Ji Fan was right. Nôv(el)B\\jnn

He Jian also turned to look at Liu Ji Fan. His blue eyes were emotionless and cold but Liu Ji Fan didn't seem to mind and said gently.

"You need to tell us, Jian. You are still very inexperienced in all this. Maybe we can help you."   He Jian was silent but Liu Ji Fan could see that he was really thinking about it. This made him wonder what exactly happened between him and Mo Roulan. However, what he heard was definitely out of his expectation. Under his friends' gazes on himself, He Jian said with a cold and indifferent face. "I kissed Lanlan."

And the private room went silent.
