CEO He : Please Don't Love Me

The dinner finished slowly as the four people on the table talked with each other.

Butler Wen felt a little awkward at first as it was his first time to sit with everyone like this and have a meal. However, with time, he also started to feel comfortable and laughed whenever someone made a joke.

Sitting on the table, Mo Roulan glanced at Cheng Yang who was smiling happily at something Butler Wen was telling and she couldn't help but think that he looked more carefree and happy today.

After the dinner finished, Mrs. Cheng retired to her room.

Mo Roulan knew that she had come home after a week from the office so she could understand that she wanted to rest.

Butler Wen also started to clean the dining table. So she was now left alone with Cheng Yang in the living room.

She glanced at the clock inside the living room and found out that there was still half an hour left in the time Cheng Yang had asked her for today.

Mo Roulan could see the sky from one of the windows of the living room and saw that it was still not that dark so she had no problem staying.

However, what will she do now if she stayed?

She looked at Cheng Yang and smiled lightly. Just when she was about to open her mouth and say something, Cheng Yang spoke up

"Garden…will you go to the garden with me?"

Cheng Yang looked a little nervous and this made Mo Roulan feel funny. It was the first time she was seeing him like this. 

Was he afraid that she would refuse to accompany him to the garden?

She smiled and said

"Of course"

And almost laughed out loud when she saw Cheng Yang heaving a sigh of relief.

Cheng Yang was too nervous to care that Mo Roulan was laughing at him.

Just when Mo Roulan turned around, he winked at Butler Wen who was hiding behind a wall in the living room and after that, he followed Mo Roulan to the garden.

Mo Roulan, on the other hand, unaware of any such interactions was now looking around the beautiful garden of the Cheng Mansion.

"It is a very nice place…"

She had never visited the garden of the Cheng Mansion and she couldn't help but find the place beautiful. There were many flowers inside the garden.

Cheng Yang smiled when he heard her compliment and said when he saw her looking at some particular flowers again and again. 

"My father …personally used to take care of them."

The atmosphere became a little strange after Cheng Yang mentioned his father.  Mo Roulan was at a loss of words as she licked her lips lightly while Cheng Yang laughed lightly feeling her confusion.

"You don't need to behave like that."

Mo Roulan was very surprised when she heard Cheng Yang laughing. With surprised eyes, she looked at him and saw him looking at the same flowerpot.

"I have accepted it now."

Mo Roulan understood what he was trying to say. He had finally accepted his father's death.

"He is no longer with me but he will always remain in my memories."   

Cheng Yang smiled when he finished his words and looked at Mo Roulan.

"You are right."

Mo Roulan reciprocated the smile and whispered lightly.

She had not expected Cheng Yang to continue talking on this topic but he did.

"Thanks"

"You don't need to."

"No, I need to."

Cheng Yang emphasized his words and continued

"If you had not made me realize that I need to confide everything to my mother then I would never have been able to know the truth."

Mo Roulan's eyebrows knitted in confusion as she didn't understand what truth Cheng Yang was talking about. However, it was never her right to intrude in his life any longer and ask him such a personal question.

"I would not have known that my father's death was not my fault. I would not have been able to avenge it."

As Cheng Yang continued, slowly and slowly things started to make sense to her.

So Cheng Yang's father was killed by someone?

With wide eyes, she looked at Cheng Yang only to find him still looking at those flowers.

It took a great time for Mo Roulan to calm down from the shock she had just received.

Curiosity was in human nature and she was no different.

She had to suppress herself, again and again, to not ask any stupid question from Cheng Yang.

He might be saying that he had accepted his father's death but his emotions must be still delicate and she never wanted to hurt him. So staying silent was a better option. 

The atmosphere didn't stay like that for long.

As very soon, Butler Wen stepped inside the garden dragging a trolley with him.       

Mo Roulan was surprised again when she saw a cake on the top of the trolley and looked at Cheng Yang in confusion.

"Is it your birthday today?"

Cheng Yang chuckled at her question and then shook his head. 

"No, it's for you."

"Oh…"so it was a farewell cake. She had wanted to say but Butler Wen had already reached to them until that moment and gave them a big smile.

Mo Roulan reciprocated the smile but frowned when she saw that Butler Wen was about to leave.

"Butler Wen, you should also stay here with us."

The smile on Cheng Yang's lips froze and Butler Wen who was amidst leaving the garden also didn't know what he should say for a moment.

The old butler glanced at Cheng Yang hesitantly as if asking what he should do.

In the end, Cheng Yang bit his tongue and said

"No, butler Wen can't stay here."

Mo Roulan, who didn't notice their small interactions frowned in confusion and asked

"Why?"

"Because he has diabetes. Won't he feel bad to see such a delicious cake cutting in front of him and then watching us eating it when he himself can't have a single bite?"

  Butler Wen who didn't have any such disease was left speechless at his master's capability of lying. However, he could only smile hesitantly when Mo Roulan glanced at him apologetically. 

After that, he silently left the garden leaving Cheng Yang and Mo Roulan with their cake.
