Because I simply love you

Chapter 107: Somebody else returned as well

For the next few days, Natsukashi slowly started to resume its business. The twins and Serena helped her a lot in managing it. Jianyu also helped her out whenever he could which gave them more time to spend with each other.

Even if he was in Natsukashi sometimes, Jianyu and Serena could not meet face-to-face again. Serena officially got the job after her internship and she was busy in her first big project. There was too much work and very odd timings. So, they actually missed each other due to her work.

One day like any other, Jianyu was in his office busy in a meeting, but his mind was somewhere else. He was still uncomfortable hiding things from Nana. It was eating him from inside. What's more, there were two truths, including the media incident. Nana had suffered a lot because of Suyin, twice, and he cannot even say anything.

Damn it. Mom will kill me if she comes to know that I couldn't refuse Suyin. Am I doing too much for her with this favor?

The meeting ended and he got up to leave.

On his way, he heard his women staff secretly giggling and talking in whispers.

"Ah, it's CEO Chen. No matter how much I see him everyday, I still can't resist to see him more.", one woman said dreamily.

"I know right? He is such a gentleman and on top of that his handsome looks. God, he is a complete package!"

"You know what? I was secretly happy to know that he broke up with Miss Tang Suyin. It felt like he became single again for all of us.", one giggled.

"Haish! He is such a perfect man that we could only see him from afar."

Jianyu heard their conversation without being noticed.

He chuckled softly reminiscing something. A familiar voice rang in his head.

"Damn it you are so hot."

"I will forgive you on account of being so handsome."

Jianyu wasn't unaware of what the female staff or in general women thought of him. But that particular girl who he met a few nights back was the first one ever who was so outspoken about this. Usually women would act all coy and demure in front of him. They would hide their excitement and bubbling emotions.

But when she blurted her real thoughts about him, he didn't know how to react. He was speechless.

He shook his head. Such a crazy girl she was.

He came out and all women were stunned seeing him. Did he hear them talking?

"S-sir"

He smiled. "Thank you for the compliments. I appreciate them but I think your break time should have been got over a while back, right?"

"Y-yes sir!", they said and quickly scurried to their desks.

Where the past days were going fairly well for Nana, the same was not the case with Huian.

After the arrival of the fourth and the last letter, Jinhai again began investigating them, which was left aside because of the sudden incident.

Assistant Xin had visited Liu villa one day to tell his findings. Huian was right outside, secretly listening to their conversation.

"Sir. I have talked to Dr. Xie."

"Go on.", Jinhai said.

"Sir, I found it strange. Dr. Xie said that according to him, Old Madam Liu's heart attack didn't have any apparent cause. When he had checked on her, he found no problems with her health. But Old Madam insisted that she was hurting a lot. She truly felt like she was getting a heart attack. He did all kinds of tests but all were negative."

He didn't say anything.

Assistant Xin was also finding this very odd. Did Old Madam really lie? But why would she? Why fake an attack?

Huian heard everything and went to Grandma Liu.

Jinhai asked, "Did you do the other thing?"

"Yes, sir. It is done."

"En.", he looked out of the window staring at the moonlit night.

---

"Grandma! They already know the truth behind your attack from Dr. Xie. They are doubting your motive."

"What!? But why didn't you stop them from investigating?", she asked exasperated.

"I couldn't! Jinhai started doubting me that I'm trying to hide this matter way too much. And it's not like Assistant Xin will listen to me."

"We have to stop Jinhai anyhow. We need something to distract him."

Huian looked at her seriously. "I know just what that would be."

The next day Nana was busy cleaning Natsukashi which she did slowly with the help of her cane. She was dusting the tables and chairs when her stick slipped and fell down.

Before she could bend to pick it up, another young man quickly grabbed it and handed it to her.

Nana smiled. "Thank you so much." She looked at him and was surprised.

Why does he look so familiar?

He didn't say anything.

She felt awkward. "Um, thank you for your help."

She thought a lot and it struck her.

Wait. Doesn't he look like Mr. Liu Jinhai a bit? Not a bit, actually a lot.

He raised his eyebrows a little and brought his hand towards her face. He pinched and squished her cheeks.

Nana was stunned with the sudden contact.

"Huh?", she looked at him with tons of questions in her mind.

"HmmI'm wondering what does he like in you?", he finally said.
