He Jian's eyes narrowed as he saw the young girl sitting on the chair looking around the office with uncertainty. She was looking around everywhere except him …as if these four walls were going to give her the answer to his question that she would give to him later. He had actually not expected her to refuse to go with him even now. In fact, he had thought that this opportunity would be the best chance for him to break the cold ice between them. However, now it seemed that Mo Roulan was still very angry.
It was after a few moments the girl finally looked at him and said softly "You can tell me the address."
Then as if afraid that he will give some sort of excuse, Mo Roulan said immediately "I promise that I will reach it at the correct time."
Even if she would need to do the taxi individually, she would just go to He Mansion on time and not anger him again because of reaching late. Mo Roulan didn't want to give He Jian any chance to scold her again. Satisfied with her plans and thoughts, she nodded her head lightly to herself. It was perfect. However, He Jian didn't seem to be agreeing with Mo Roulan. His cold blue eyes narrowed as he looked at the girl who seemed to be very satisfied with her plans and he chuckled suddenly …because of anger and frustration. He had had it enough now. Thinking this, he suddenly stepped closer and then held Mo Roulan's wrist to make her get up from the chair. Mo Roulan was already startled when she heard He Jian's cold chuckle and she was left more startled when she felt his cold, gentle but firm touch on her wrist. Her heartbeat quickened slightly as she felt it and it took her a moment to realize that she should be struggling to free herself as they were getting out of the office. What if anyone saw them like this!
Eyes wide, Mo Roulan whispered sharply.
"Mr. He, what are you doing? Mr. He…" Mo Roulan's whisper died down just like that because He Jian pretended as if he never heard it. Panicked, Mo Roulan looked around, and then she suddenly held the door with her other hand so that she would be able to stop He Jian from moving. And as she expected, He Jian stopped. But it was not because he was not able to pull Mo Roulan away but it was because he didn't want her to get any kind of injury by pulling her away forcefully. He looked speechless as he looked at Mo Roulan who was stubbornly holding the handle of the door like a child who didn't wish to go with him.
"Lanlan…leave the door."
He Jian said calmly but still, Mo Roulan couldn't help but swallow. Her hand almost left the handle as he had asked her to do but just at the last moment, she held it more firmly and shook her head while saying. "I won't."
"I want to go by bus."
He Jian narrowed his eyes again. The hell he will let her travel by those buses. In the afternoon, he had read a few articles about girls traveling in buses and what He Jian concluded, in the end, was that he would not let Mo Roulan travel by bus at all. "You won't be going by bus."
He Jian said calmly again and very firmly. Mo Roulan couldn't help but frown at his words. "Who are you to stop him?"
The question immediately silenced the already silent hall …but this time it was a different kind of silence. Mo Roulan noticed that He Jian's face looked blank. Even Chu Feng who was standing a few steps away watching everything with a blank face decided to leave from there and not come back until his boss would call him.
Mo Roulan noticed Chu Feng's departure and she gulped. She almost wanted to reach out and shout for Chu Feng to stop for her. Though he was also He Jian's loyal assistant and won't be any helpful for her, she still wanted him to stay when here she was standing alone in front of He Jian. However, she didn't want to leave the door handle also so she held it stubbornly and pretended as if she was not nervous at all. But when He Jian suddenly stepped closer and asked her
"You want to know who I am to you?"
She still couldn't control herself from expressing the shock and nervousness she was feeling inside her heart. Her eyes were wide as she stared at his face that was so close to her. The small distance between them seemed to be very small to Mo Roulan and she unconsciously stepped back, however, He Jian again didn't seem to agree with her and decreased that small distance also. Mo Roulan breathed heavily as she felt his warm breaths falling down on her cheeks.
She felt a different kind of tickling in the lower part of her belly when she heard him humming and asking her
"Hm…Lanlan tell me, do you really want to know who am I to you?"
Mo Roulan blinked her long eyelashes as she licked her dry lips and raised her head to look at He Jian's blue eyes and she inhaled sharply when she saw those intense blue eyes. There again…again she could see something incomprehensible but different from before …different from whatever she had seen there before in those blue eyes. When He Jian parted his lips, her eyes unconsciously fell on them and she heard him holding her chin in a gentle but firm hold as he told her in his deep voice "I really want to tell you …but I am afraid that I will scare you. So tell me do you want to know?"
Caressing the soft skin under his finger, He Jian smiled as he looked into Mo Roulan's black brown eyes and said gently "You are not allowed to run away once you know the answer. Tell me do you still want to know the answer?"
