"You dropped her at the college?"
Sitting inside his office, He Jian who was working on his laptop asked his assistant.
The reply instantly came from Chu Feng.
"Yes, Boss. Not only Miss Mo, but I dropped Miss Mo's younger brother to the hospital."
He Jian didn't say anything. He didn't even raise his head to look at Chu Feng.
The assistant knew that now he was supposed to leave. However, it seems that the curiosity inside him seemed to have crossed all the boundaries now and he asked his boss without thinking anything
"Boss, why are you hiding from Miss Mo?"
The continuous sound of the keys being pressed stopped as soon as Chu Feng's voice fell.
Slowly, the cold blue eyes fell on Chu Feng's face as if asking him just from when he became so daring. Only then did Chu Feng realize what actually he has asked just now.
A shiver ran down his spine and he lowered his eyes and said again and again
"Sorry Boss…I am so s…stupid. Please don't pay attention to my words."
"Leave!"
The cold and sharp voice stopped Chu Feng from saying anything else. The relieved assistant ran away from the office as if his tail was on fire.
On the other hand, He Jian closed his laptop loudly producing a loud sound inside the office.
Chu Feng who was still at the office's door flinched on hearing this sound and increased his pace.
Inside the office, He Jian stood up from his chair and then walked to stand in front of the large glass that showed him the view of the city's road.
A moment later, he suddenly pressed his temple and cursed silently inside his mind.
'That f****g Fang Zhihan."
Actually, since the day Fang Zhihan had said to him that Mo Roulan meant more to him than he thought, He Jian has not been able to rest in peace.
Every time he saw Mo Roulan's face, strange thoughts will start to fill his heart and mind.
For one week, He Jian endured. However, soon he found out that he was losing control at himself.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtFor example, when he would have a meal with Mo family, his eyes would sneak a glance at Mo Roulan's lips. He would feel something strange whenever she licked them.
He suddenly started to notice each and every action of hers.
When He Jian realized what he was doing, his heart was filled with guilt.
Lanlan was so younger than him.
How could he even think of her in such a way!
She was so pure and he was …he was so dirty.
He didn't deserve her.
That's why, in the disguise of being busy in a project, He Jian was now staying in the office all the time, away from Mo Roulan.
He thought by doing this his mind would again come on the right track after some time and he would stop feeling those strange things.
'Boss, why are you running away?'
Chu Feng's question suddenly flashed in He Jian's mind.
'Was he running away?'
No, He Jian didn't think so.
He was just saving his Lanlan from himself.
His Lanlan…she doesn't deserve to be tainted by anyone …not even himself.
-------
It was nighttime.
A car stopped outside the Shen Mansion and Shen Weisheng came out from it.
His face didn't have any emotion as he looked at the huge doors of the huge Mansion. The joy of returning to their home that should be there in a person's eyes, Shen Weisheng didn't have it.
With the same emotionless face, he walked towards the large doors and then went inside.
"Big Brother."
A too-soft voice immediately fell in Shen Weisheng's voice. However, it didn't soften his face, instead, frustration flashed through his eyes when he saw the owner of the voice running towards himself.
The excited Shen Yiling tried to hold Shen Weisheng's arm, however, before she could even do so, Shen Weisheng avoided her like a plague.
Not only that, he even said to her coldly
"Stay away."
Shen Yiling's eyes dimmed instantly and she lowered her head as if she was very sad. Resentment towards Shen Weisheng flashed in her eyes.
What does that Shen Youlin has that she doesn't.
However, his face had always remained like this seeing her.
"Weisheng, how can you behave with your younger sister like that?"
A cold and sharp voice immediately sounded in the large living hall. It was Shen Zhilan who had witnessed Shen Weisheng avoiding Shen Yiling and hence had a very unhappy expression on his face.
"She is your sister. She was so excited when she came to know that you are coming here and you are repaying her like this."
Shen Zhilan said as she walked towards Shen Weisheng. However, Shen Weisheng's eyes still remained indifferent.
He was done with Shen family when they filed a complaint against Mo Roulan…the girl who saved his sister.
To Shen Weisheng, now Mo Roulan was no less than Shen Youlin. Because he knew that if Mo Roulan was not there for his sister, then perhaps he would have never come to know that Shen Youlin was suffering from all that.
Despite not having any will to come here, he still came because he knew why his mother had called him. It must be related to Shen Youlin.
All these years, he had become well know to Shen Yiling's character. She couldn't stay peacefully without making Shen Youlin feel low and lonely.
However, now he was here for his sister. He would not let her feel alone. He would also not let Shen Yiling do anything to his sister.
That's why he came.
He knew very well that his mother would hire a detective if he refused to come and tell her something about Shen Youlin.
Shen Youlin's time in the rehabilitation center was not left very long now.
So Shen Weisheng wanted to tell wrong information about Shen Youlin to his mother. In the meantime, his mother would be searching for his sister at the wrong place while Shen Youlin would be out of the rehabilitation center until her mother would even get to know about anything.
Unaware of Shen Weisheng's thoughts, Shen Yiling pretended to be very generous and walked to her mother.
Holding Shen Zhilan's hand, she said with a nervous smile on her face.
"Mom, why are you scolding Big Brother? Big Brother must be working in our company all these days. It is natural to become irritated after doing so much hard work."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShen Wesiheng's eyes were filled with disgust while Shen Zhilan couldn't help but feel moved. She couldn't help but look at her son with a frown and say
"Your sister cares for you so much. She doesn't even want me to scold you. Weisheng, you should also care for her."
Shen Weisheng just nodded his head with an indifferent expression on his face. He knew that until the time he would not agree to his mother's orders she would continue to stand here and lecture him.
After all, he had hurt her dear daughter.
He didn't want to stay in Shen Mansion for long and see the faces of all these stupid and hypocrites people so ignoring Shen Zhilan and Shen Yiling, he moved towards the dining room alone.
Shen Zhilan was left angry by his indifferent actions. She was about to say something when Shen Yiling suddenly held her hand and said
"Mom, we can't anger Big Brother. What if he refused to tell us anything about Youlin because of this?"
Shen Zhilan frowned, however knowing her son's behavior she knew that what Shen Yiling said could really happen. So she silently walked to the dining room with her daughter.
Inside the dining room, Grandfather Shen and Wang Weimin were already seated. When they saw Shen Weisheng, they asked her how he was and Shen Weisheng, in return greeted them without any expression on his face.
The dinner also started in this awkward silence.
Only the sound of clattering could be heard until Shen Yiling looked towards Shen Weisheng and asked
"Big Brother, have you seen Youlin? Actually I am trying to contact her since the past few weeks but couldn't do so. I am so worried where she is and what she is doing after knowing that she has the addiction of drugs."
The dining room suddenly became deathly silent after Shen Yiling's words.
Shen Youlin's topic had became a taboo in Shen Mansion after the Shen family members have come to know that she was doing drugs.
Sure enough, Grandfather Shen's face went red with anger and he put down the knife and spoon in his hands with a slam. After that, he silently exited the dining room.
Shen Yiling wanted to roll her eyes seeing the old man's behavior. However, she had to pretend to be the one at fault and say
"Mom, Grandfather left. I made him leave the dinner."
Shen Zhilan sighed and comforted her daughter saying that after dinner she would expecially go to her father's room and make him have the meal.
Only then did Shen Yiling look relieved. However, her relief didn't last long. The next moment, she heard Shen Weisheng's cold voice
"You are trying to reach Shen Youlin since the past few weeks. Then how come I only see the records of your calls for only a week?"
Shen Weisheng suddenly took out a phone from his pocket and said
Shen Yiling's eyes narrowed and it took her a moment to realize that the phone belonged to Shen Youlin. Her face went pale as Shen Weisheng was saying the truth.
When was she worried for that girl?
A week ago, it suddenly came to her mind that she could find Mo Roulan with the help of Shen Youlin and hence she started to call her.
However, now she had already said something else.
Every pair of eyes in the dining room were fixed on her.
