Chapter 149 - A New Discovery

Mo Roulan looked at her both of her hands moving her face to left and then right unable to comprehend how she got into the current situation. 

"She will go with me."

She heard Cheng Yang saying in his cold voice that Mo Roulan remembered he had used on her once when she had touched the violin on her first day of tutoring him inside his room.

And Mo Roulan looked at Cheng Yang who was currently holding her left hand.

The other man however didn't say anything so it made Mo Roulan glance at him only to find his cold blue eyes fixed on herself.

He was also holding her hand…right hand precisely.

But he didn't say anything like 'she will go with me' fortunately.

Because unfortunately, his cold blue eyes were enough to indicate his words as he silently looked at her.

'You will go with me.'

They said according to Mo Roulan.

Sigh. Mo Roulan could only do this as she gulped while standing between the two men and trying to guess as to why this silent war was going on between them…when she had thought of them as lovers just a few moments ago in her mind.

Even He Jian's assistant, Chu Feng was looking at this scene with a parted mouth.     

His boss …he had never seen his boss doing something childish like this.

Since it was him only who had investigated Cheng Yang for his boss he knew that Cheng Yang was also a very intelligent and stubborn boy with his own sharp edges.     

The young assistant suddenly pitied Miss Mo who was standing between these two cold slabs.

"Why don't we solve this matter like adults?" Mo Roulan chuckled nervously and said as she tried to free her hands.

The two men, however, ignored her feeble attempts like nothing and she heard Cheng Yang voice again.

"I am not an adult."

A wise answer …Chu Feng could not help but applaud silently for Cheng Yang.

Now the young assistant looked at his own boss with worried eyes.

Mo Roulan could also do the same thing after what Cheng Yang said. She looked at He Jian with a nervous smile.

The man, however, narrowed his cold blue eyes scaring Mo Roulan out of her wits.

"Mo Roulan, why do I feel used every time I help you?"

He Jian's words successfully made Mo Roulan's smile disappear and a twinge of guilt rose inside Mo Roulan's heart.

Since Mo Roulan had decided to put everything of her past life in her past life only, she had decided to see He Jian with a fresh point of view also.         

And seeing how everything happened in this life, she could find reasonability in He Jian's words.

He was indeed being used by her.

Actually not only in this life, but she had also used him in her past life, isn't it?  …or that was something he had told her.

Mo Roulan shook her head to clear her thoughts when she found herself thinking about her past life again.

And she tried to concentrate on the predicament she was in.

She could no longer look at He Jian and ask him to free her hand.

So Mo Roulan looked at Cheng Yang and said

"Cheng Yang, we will talk here whatever you want to talk about."

Cheng Yang's body stilled when he heard Mo Roulan's words. He unconsciously left Mo Roulan's hand as he silently looked at her and then at her hand that was held by the man he still didn't know.

Hearing the words the man said to Mo Roulan, he had a guess in his mind but he was not sure about it.

'Was this person so important in Mo Roulan's eyes?' Cheng Yang suddenly found his heart a little heavy as this thought entered his mind.

On the other hand, when Mo Roulan saw Cheng Yang looking at He Jian she thought that Cheng Yang didn't want to talk in front of He Jian so she said

"Cheng Yang, this is Mr. He Jian. You don't need to worry about talking to me in front of me. You can say anything you want freely."

She introduced Cheng Yang and assured him with a soft smile on her lips.

The coldness in He Jian's eyes reduced only slightly when he heard Mo Roulan's last words and he no longer looked at Cheng Yang with the same aloofness.   

After knowing the name of the man, Cheng Yang also understood why Mo Roulan was feeling so obliged to obey him.

His heavy heart however became heavier.

'If only I was more capable than him then she would not have to take his help.' thought Cheng Yang and his desire to take back whatever his family had lost increased.

Since Mo Roulan had already said so, he didn't delay the things anymore and called the person he had brought with himself to come out.

Mo Roulan saw Cheng Yang calling someone with confused eyes.

When she was about to question Cheng Yang, she suddenly saw a woman walking in their direction.

Mo Roulan eyes went cold when she recognized the woman.

It was the policewoman from last night. The same policewoman who had talked to her so rudely and had pushed her inside the prison cell so harshly. 

Her frown went deeper when the policewoman stood beside Cheng Yang and looked at her with red and swollen eyes filled with regret.

Mo Roulan, however, looked away.

She had not found the woman having any nice intention towards herself the last night.

"Roulan"

Cheng Yang called out to her and Mo Roulan was forced to look at him.

"She came to me when I had gone to the police station last night with your bail papers."

Mo Roulan was surprised to hear Cheng Yang's words.

All this while, she had never known that Cheng Yang had also gone back to the police station to free her. She actually never thought about Cheng Yang and the discovery made Mo Roulan feel guilty towards him.

He Jian who could read every ongoing emotion in the eyes of the girl standing beside him again had cold eyes as he looked at Cheng Yang.

Cheng Yang however unaware of these two people's change of emotions continued

"She told me that she had something very important to tell you."

Mo Roulan's attention was also diverted by Cheng Yang's words and she looked at the policewoman with questioning eyes.

The policewoman recognized He Jian who was standing beside Mo Roulan. Her red-eyed swayed between two of them and she said finally

"I will only tell this important thing only if CEO He will give me back my job."

The policewoman put the condition and Cheng Yang was not surprised at all as he had expected her to put such a condition the way she was crying in front of him.         

He, however, had not expected He Jian to present when he would talk to Mo Roulan about the policewoman.

Mo Roulan was shocked when she heard the policewoman's words. She looked at He Jian with eyes full of shock only to find him looking at someone with his cold blue eyes.

And this time the victim of this suffocating coldness was the policewoman who shrunk her head and tried to hide behind Cheng Yang.

The next moment, the policewoman understood that this was not the time to hide so she went in front of Mo Roulan and …kneeled down.

"Miss Mo…please forgive me. Please ask CEO He to return my job. I am a single mother and have a child to raise. I can't afford to lose this job. Please give me my job back. Actually someone had bribed me to disfigure your face. But I didn't do it, Miss Mo. Please take this fact into account and return my job to me."

The policewoman's words shocked Mo Roulan and Cheng Yang.     

He Jian, however, was already used to seeing plans like this so he was not much shocked. But his blue eyes were filled with anger as he moved them to look towards his assistant.

Chu Feng shuddered and immediately took out his phone to start investigating this new discovery.

And He Jian moved his eyes back to the policewoman.

Mo Roulan came out of her shock and looked at the policewoman with knitted eyebrows unable to decide whether she should believe her words or not.

'Who would try to harm …or should she say disfigure her face?' thought Mo Roulan inside her heart but couldn't find any answer. 

Because Mo Roulan didn't have anyone who seemed to hate her so much, or that was what she thought, in her present life so she thought that policewoman was just lying to get her job back.

Cheng Yang was also doubtful about the policewoman's words and said

"Who asked you to do such a thing?"

The policewoman stopped wailing at Cheng Yang's question and her eyes were suddenly filled with fear. 

As if she didn't want to answer Cheng Yang's question.
