Chapter 70 - The Cold CEO Liu
The car turned silent after Mo Roulan said those words to He Jian.
'Stay away from me as much as possible.'
The ride back to City H was a silent one. No one spoke anything.
All the time there was a frown on He Jian's forehead. When his phone vibrated again, he didn't ignore it and picked it up.
Whoever was on the other's side could only assume that it was his worst day today as He Jian continued to shower him with his coldness.
Mo Roulan could feel that she had angered him with her words. But she doesn't care what he was feeling. According to her, there was nothing wrong with whatever she said to He Jian.
It was almost evening when the car stopped outside the building.
"Mr. He, I am very grateful to you for whatever you had done for me till now. Since you said that I helped you five years ago, now you have already helped me not once but many times. I think now there should not be anything left between us."
Saying this, she has just opened the door of the car when she heard He Jian asking him.
"Can we be friends?"
'You are nothing to me.'
The words didn't seem to leave He Jian's mind since the time he had heard them.
Her hands clutched the handle of the door as she refused without any hesitation.
"No."
The frown on He Jian's forehead went deeper as he asked her in a firm voice.
"Why?"
"Because the cost of your friendship is too much for me."
Mo Roulan sighed and told him in short how she had to leave her job just because he told everyone in the banquet that she was his partner accompanying him in the banquet.
He Jian's face was very cold when she finished but Mo Roulan didn't notice this as she continued her words.
"Mr. He, we are very different from each other. I hope you will understand the reason behind my refusal."
After that, Mo Roulan stepped out of the car and walked inside the building.
--------------
Sitting inside the living room that was only lit with a lamp placed on the side table, Liu Ji Fan's fingers pressed the keys of his laptop nonstop.
The phone placed beside his laptop vibrated suddenly. Still working on the laptop with one hand, Liu Ji Fan slid the screen of his phone with his other hand to answer the call.
"Boss, there is a man named Tian Yuan outside the mansion. He is saying that CEO He sent him here."
The hand that was working busily stopped suddenly at the security guard's words. His eyes flickered with something undecipherable.
"Let him inside."
"Yes, Boss."
With that, the call was hung up but Liu Ji Fan no longer started to work on his laptop. He closed it and then leaned on the couch he was sitting on.
Spreading his arms on the armrest he supported his head on the headrest as he stared at the ceiling with no emotion on his face.
Knock..
There was a knock on the door. He leisurely took his own time to allow whoever was outside to enter.
When a thin silhouette stepped inside the room, his fingers unconsciously gripped tightly whatever under his hands was.
"CEO Liu, My Boss had sent me here and told me that you have some work for me."
Tian Yuan said and bowed his head respectfully without looking around the room.
"Yes, I do have a job for you but the question is …will you do it for me?"
Tian Yuan frowned as he found the voice a little familiar.
He raised his head to look at the man sitting on the couch but couldn't see his face hidden under the shadow of the light of the lamp.
He shoved his thoughts away and bowed his head again and answered.
"If it is something that I can do, I will not hesitate to do it."
A humorless chuckle escaped Liu Ji Fan's lips and then followed a very cold smile.
The voice had changed within so many years.
He stood up from the couch and slowly walked towards the man standing in front of him. During the whole time, his gaze never left the thin man.
"I have not expected you to forget me so easily…Tian Yuan."
Tian Yuan who was called by his name now had his eyes wide with shock. His heart was drumming loudly inside his chest as he slowly raised his head to look at the man standing in front of him.
When he saw the face, he hadn't seen for years; a gasp unconsciously escaped from his lips as he whispered breathlessly.
"Liu Ji Fan."
Liu Ji Fan raised his eyebrows when the young man called him by his name. The face of the young man was still as beautiful as he remembered. Tian Yuan's wide eyes filled with shock stirred his heart.
His eyes were filled with genuine surprise as he said
"Oh…you remember my name?"
Rubbing his chin he continued with a smile.
"And here I thought that you have forgotten the worthless me."
His lips held a friendly smile but Tian Yuan didn't find it friendly at all. He could only feel the upcoming danger and he stepped back.
The smile soon became cold when Liu Ji Fan saw this.
He stepped forward again which only made Tian Yuan step back once more.
When he saw that Liu Ji Fan was about to step closer again; he turned around to go out of the room. However, his wrist was suddenly held from behind.
"Ahh.."
He gasped in pain as Liu Ji Fan twisted it behind his back.
Dragging him closer such that his back was touching his chest, Liu Ji Fan chuckled coldly in Tian Yuan's ear.
The hot breath from Liu Ji Fan tickled Tian Yuan's ear and he tried to avoid it.
"What? Want to run away again?"
Tian Yuan struggled to free his hand and hid his fear under the face that didn't have any emotion.
"Let me go."
Liu Ji Fan only turned him around in response and caged him in his arms.
"Let you go? Ha…not until I get bored of you."
Saying this, he crashed his lips on Tian Yuan's pink lips.
