Chapter 126 - Don't You Feel Jealous

After a very long and important meeting, He Jian entered his office followed by his assistant, Chu Feng.

As he sat down on his chair and leaned his head against the armrest he frowned seeing a bag on his table.

"What is this?"

He looked at Chu Feng and asked

Chu Feng was also confused and when he saw the bag on his boss' table.

He picked it up and opened it.

His eyes widened slightly when he saw what was inside the bag. He gulped in fear when he raised his head and saw his boss questioning eyes on himself.

"Boss, this is the meal I have sent for Miss Mo to the hospital."

The meal was now cold. It could be said that it has been very long since it was placed here.

Sure enough, He Jian's face went cold instantly.

"So what is this doing here on my table?"

He emphasized each and every word making Chu Feng's back wet with cold sweat. The assistant scared out of his wits immediately stuttered out.

"Boss, believe me. I have asked the driver to send it to Doctor Fang so that he can give it to Miss Mo."

After finishing his words, Chu Feng searched his pockets and said

"Boss, I will call Doctor Fang whether he received the packet or not."

He Jian didn't say anything as he watched his assistant dialing Fang Zhihan's number bit his cold eyes were enough to make Chu Feng tremble whenever he glanced at his boss with a tight smile.

The call connected and Chu Feng didn't waste even a second to tell the purpose of his call.

"Mr. Fang, this is Chu Feng."

On the other side of the phone, Fang Zhihan smiled wickedly while propping his legs on the chair in front of him and said

"Of Course, I know. Most of the time, It's you who calls me whenever there is something related to Jian's matters. The things have come to this point that I have saved your number with the name 'He Jian's tail' now. Whenever I need to find He Jian, I can call his tail."

Chu Feng didn't feel offended at all by Fang Zhihan's words.

He was used to Fang Zhihan's behavior whenever the man was in the mood of teasing his boss like this. But at this moment, he really wished to scream at Fang Zhihan.

'This was not the right time.'

He hurriedly interrupted Fang Zhihan fearing that the man would continue another round of one-sided humor and asked

"Mr. Fang, Did you receive a packet of food that you were supposed to give to Miss Mo?"

Unbeknownst to Chu Feng, Fang Zhihan had been waiting for him to ask this question.

He chuckled but it seemed very evil to Chu Feng's ears.

"I'll tell you. First, put your phone on the speaker."

Chu Feng frowned. He clearly didn't want to follow Fang Zhihan's wish. He was afraid that Fang Zhihan would say something that would anger his boss more and it would be him only who have to bear the consequences of that anger.   

However, he didn't have any other way. He knew that if he didn't do everything according to Fang Zhihan's wish at this moment then the man would not help him in proving his innocence in front of his boss.

Both the way, he was destined to suffer so Chu Feng decided to put the phone on speaker.

Maybe he would suffer less if his boss comes to know that he really did his work.

"Hello, Jiannn"

As soon as the phone was put on the speaker, a voice very sickly sweet came out from the other side.

The voice was so sweet and cringe that even Chu Feng shivered and felt goosebumps on his arms. He glanced at his boss and was relieved that his boss's expression was the same.

Although it was cold, it was not colder.

With the same indifferent face, He Jian asked coldly

"Fang Zhihan, Did you receive it?"

There was silence on the side of the phone for a few moments and then a burst of loud laughter came.

"You seriously wish to know about this? Well, I didn't want to break your heart but it seems that I would have to."

"Yes, I had received the food you have sent for your girl and I even went to give it to her. However, much to your disappointment and to my happiness, she didn't take it."

He Jian's face went cold and Chu Feng's face went pale with fear.

However, Fang Zhihan seemed to be in the mood of speaking too much today so he continued

"You know what did she say?..."

Fang Zhihan cleared his throat as if he was trying to control his laughter and said

"She said 'This is for me alone and that's why I can't take this. I would rather go home and cook something nutritious for Shen Youlin and me by myself.' "

Fang Zhihan was just telling everything by mixing his own words. However, some part of this was true. Shen Weisheng had told him this was the excuse that Mo Roulan had given to him.

He was just making his own words but telling the truth.

Even He Jian on the other side of the phone knew this but he still looked very cold because he knew that in the end, Mo Roulan rejected the food sent by him.

It was just food today, not money or something very expensive.

'Why does she averse to him so much that she can't even bear to eat the food given by him?' thought He Jian.

"Jian"

This time Fang Zhihan voice was a little soft as he continued his one-sided talk.

"I am telling you again that girl is the one with too much self-respect. I have seen it today. She is a good girl, the one that would not accept your help until you make her realize that she really needs you…if not for herself, then for her family at least. I am telling you just do what I have suggested, you won't regret it."

He Jian didn't say anything but Fang Zhihan didn't feel discouraged.

Instead, he was back to his usual self and said

"Ah..she called Shen Weisheng 'brother' today. Don't you feel jealous? I don't know if you do but I certainly do. I don't have a sister. I wish I had one like Mo Roulan who would call me brother like this."

"Hmph…now it seems with the pace you are going on I would never be able to live my dream. She doesn't only repulse you….she avoids everyone except Shen Weihsneg. God knows what kind of heinous things you have done to that girl. Don't tell me you show this cold and icy face of yours whenever you are in front of her. This must be the thing. I am sure she is very sacred of you…" 

Fang Zhihan was going to continue, however, stopped when he heard the beep sound from the other side of the phone.

He looked at his phone and was furious when he saw that the call was cut.

However, the next moment he laughed out loud again.

He knew that he had successfully made the cold slab of ice more cold and irritated.

However, his smile was wiped off from his lips the next instant when the receptionist came running to his office while panting for the air.

Without even knocking on the door, she entered Fang Zhihan's office shocking him, and said

"Sir, they canceled the investment…the He Corporation refused to cancel the investment in Fang groups." 

Fang Zhihan's lips quivered.

He was smiling but it was uglier than a crying face.

"So what if they canceled the investment? We will still work like usual."

The receptionist found it weird it weirs that he was still calm but nonetheless thought it was only her who was overreacting so she went back after mumbling a 'sorry' in confusion.

If only she had seen Fang Zhihan shedding tears in despair after she left the office then she would have come to know that how pretentious Doctor Fang was in front of her.

Fang Zhihan left his head on the table with a 'thump' sound as if he had lost everything.

'Only he knows what will happen now.'

The old man in his family will not let him live peacefully from now on.

He regretted. He regretted that he teased He Jian. He should not have done this.

Still, with a small hope in his heart, he called Chu Feng.

However, on the other side of the ringing phone, Chu Feng just glanced at the number and then put his phone on silent.

He knew why Fang Zhihan was calling him.

Now when the problem came on his head, he was calling his boss to beg for mercy but he won't allow this.

'Hmph, why should he suffer alone?'

Chu Feng thought as he exited his boss' office to arrange another long meeting with foreign clients with a serious face but a bitter heart.
