Chapter 156 – Don’t Tell Lanlan Anything.
"How much time is left?"
"Five minutes, Boss"
Sitting on the front seat of the car, Chu Feng answered his boss's question and turned to look at the front again.
At this moment, they were sitting inside the black car that was standing at the same place from where Miss Mo Roulan had gotten out of the car in the morning.
There were still five minutes left for the college to end according to Miss Mo Roulan's schedule. Chu Feng remembered everything.
Yes, they were here to pick Miss Mo Roulan.
His boss asked the driver to stop the car at the end of the street, but Chu Feng could still see all the students who were exiting the college glancing towards the car every now and then.
In the morning, since Miss Mo Roulan was late for her college, there was no one going out or inside. But at this moment, there were quite a lot of students who were going in and out of the college.
On the other hand, his boss' black car…it was of a limited edition. Only a very few people in the whole world had this car.
How could it not attract attention of other people!
Would not Miss Mo Roulan be unhappy if she came out and saw this? After hearing Mo Roulan's words from the morning with his own ears, Chu Feng was sure that she would never get inside his boss's car under so many eyes.
So Chu Feng had wanted to put some light on this fact and he did.
"Boss, I think we should park our car somewhere else." He had said
"Why?" His boss had asked him.
The pair of blue eyes instantly showered their coldness upon him and Chu Feng immediately pretended to be dumb.
What car, what limited edition…he doesn't know anything.
How could He Jian not know what his assistant was trying to imply? He understood everything but pretended to be dumb.
His blue eyes looked at the entrance of the college waiting for the girl to step out and look in this direction. He wanted to see her reaction.
Although a large part of him already knew that Mo Roulan would avoid him in front of so many people, he could not stop a small part of himself from expecting the opposite.
Greediness was in a human's nature but He Jian had never greed for anything. This was the first time he found himself greedy for something.
And this greed was for having a place in Mo Roulan's life… a place from where she wouldn't be able to remove him even if she wishes.
Perhaps that's why her aversion to being seen with him was disliked by him.
It had only been a day …or he should not even a day since Mo Roulan had started to accept his care but he already started to want more.
So he was forcing her to accept more of him.
He knew that he was selfish but he promised himself that he would never let Mo Roulan's fear come true…the fear because of which she doesn't wish to accept him in her life.
If only he knew that Mo Roulan's fears were still unbeknownst to him.
"Jian, you here?"
He Jian moved his blue away from the entrance of the college and glanced sideways.
"Weisheng"
He Jian called out the name of his friend emotionlessly.
Sitting on the driver's seat of the car, Shen Weisheng lowered the window of the car and looked at his cold friend in confusion.
"What are you doing here?"
He Jian silently looked at Shen Weisheng for a few moments before he opened his mouth and stated
"I am here to pick Lanlan."
Shen Weisheng raised his eyebrows and suppressed the smile forming on his lips at the same time.
Was it proudness he heard in He Jian's voice?
For a moment, he couldn't believe it. His cold and indifferent friend had done so many things in his life. He had achieved so much but Shen Weisheng had never seen him proud of his own achievements.
But today he was feeling proud just because he was here to pick a girl.
The two cars stood side by side as the men in their respective cars waited outside the college.
Five minutes suddenly seemed to be a very long time for He Jian.
On the other hand, Shen Weisheng suddenly got a call from his detective and was surprised.
He picked it up immediately thinking that the detective found something. However, what he heard was something he had not expected.
"Mr. Shen, my people informed me just now that Miss Shen has already left the college."
"What? When?"
A deep frown marred his face as Shen Weisheng tried to remember Shen Youlin's class schedule. He was sure that his assistant had told him that Shen Youlin's classes will end at three in the afternoon. After that, he glanced at his watch.
There were still a few minutes left for her class to end.
Then how come Shen Youlin left the college already?
"In the morning… Miss Shen left the college in the morning itself."
Shen Weisheng's eyes went cold as soon as he heard these words.
"And you are telling me this now?"
"Ac…actually, Mr. Shen, I…I got this news just half an hour ago and my people were trying to trace Miss Shen's whereabouts. I thought that I should call when I would get to know about Miss Shen's whereabouts. But my people couldn't find anything so I decided to inform you."
Shen Weisheng only felt more furious after hearing these words.
His sister was absent from college since the morning. First, this foolish man informed him so late and he also wasn't able to find his sister's whereabouts.
What kind of an incompetent and foolish man his assistant has hired for him?
"You are fired. Collect your money from my assistant and never dare to show your face to me again."
Said Shen Weisheng and hung up without even giving another man any chance to plead.
Shen Weisheng had just put down his phone and was now trying to think where he should go and try to find Shen Youlin when he heard He Jian asking him
"Is it about your sister?"
"Yes, Youlin left the college in the morning. Now I don't know where she is."
As soon as he said this, Shen Weisheng thought of calling at the villa where Shen Youlin lived before.
Perhaps Shen Youlin went there.
She must be there. He tried to assure himself.
However, he suddenly remembered that he didn't have any way to contact the villa Shen Youlin lived in.
So Shen Weisheng called his assistant and asked him to get him the phone number so that he can contact there.
On the other hand, seven minutes had passed finally and Mo Roulan also came out of the college.
He Jian's blue eyes stared at the girl standing at the college's gates.
A frown marred his forehead when he saw how those young boys were looking at her while they walked past her.
He saw Mo Roulan glancing towards his car. He also saw the familiarity passing through her eyes. And he also saw her moving her eyes indifferently and then walking in some other direction instead of towards his car.
The frown on his forehead became deeper and the atmosphere inside the car soon became cold and suffocating.
Chu Feng who had already expected it immediately lowered the temperature of the AC in the car.
More time passed but He Jian didn't order the driver to drive the car. He continued to look in the direction where Mo Roulan had gone.
At the same time, Shen Weisheng had already got the number and called on it. The voice soon came from the other side and he got to know that it was the cook who worked in Shen Youlin's villa.
"She is not there?"
Shen Weisheng asked without wasting even a second. A moment later, he hung up with no emotion on his face.
However, He Jian already knew what the answer was from the other side.
The friendship of all these years was not just on the name. Almost all of them had learned to read the emotion of the other person no matter how much the other tries to hide.
"Don't tell Lanlan anything."
Shen Weisheng heard He Jian's words and sighed heavily.
He was actually thinking of doing that only. According to him, Mo Roulan could help him find Shen Youlin as she had been a friend of Shen Youlin.
But he could also understand He Jian's thoughts.
He would have said the same if it was the case with his younger sister. He would never want his younger sister to get worried over something …especially after he has seen how things related to Mo Roulan affected her.
However, at this moment, a voice interrupted the thoughts of both the man.
"What should not be told to me?"
