CEO He : Please Don't Love Me

Chapter 16 - Shen Youlin

City H welcomed a new day. It was morning and Mo Roulan was on her way to the University. It was her first day. The University was at a twenty minutes walking distance from her home.

"Hel…"

A scream erupted through the alley she was passing by. Taking two steps back, she hid behind a wall. She saw two men pressing a girl on the wall. The man slapped her. She supposed it was because of the girl's earlier scream. Her mouth was tightly covered by the man. Since she was a few steps away from them, she couldn't hear whatever the man was saying to the girl but her disgust on her face was expressing that it was not something pleasant to hear.

Mo Roulan had been in such kind of situation many times in her previous life. In her last life when he left her to live by herself in the huge City, she had encountered this type of people a lot. Once when she was returning after getting her salary, a thief stole all her money. After that, she learned many ways to hide the money and how to save herself at times like this. Since she had an attractive and beautiful face, a group of men had cornered her once. Fortunately, after a lot of struggle, she had saved herself. That night, she had cried a lot and didn't go to her job for two days because she was very scared. After that, a colleague of hers had taught her some moves and kicks so that she would be able to defend herself in such a situation.

That phase was the most difficult and painful phase of her last life. It showed her the reality of this cruel world.

She looked around to confirm that there were only two men in the alley. Bringing out her phone and pen from her bag, she did some settings on her phone. After that, she put it on the ground in a way such that its upper part was touching the wall and the lower one was touching the ground. It will help in producing a loud sound.

Then she walked inside the alley with silent steps not to attract the men's attention. However, the girl saw her and her eyes widened a little. Perhaps the girl's expression was weird so the two men turned around to look. Mo Roulan hastily kicked one on his stomach and stabbed another with her pen.

"B***h."

The man cursed her and fell on the ground clutching his shoulder with a pen still stuck there.

The girl who was freed suddenly saw everything in a daze. She had a horrified expression on her face. When Mo Roulan asked her to run she still didn't come out of her stupor. Seeing no choice, she could only hold her hand and run forward. Fortunately, her legs were cooperating. The two men soon got up from the ground and ran behind the two girls to catch them.

Mo Roulan heart was beating wildly in her chest. She was very afraid.

Amidst these footsteps, a loud sound of police siren echoed in the alley. The two men froze and in a few seconds, they ran away from the alley as if their tail had got fire. When Mo Roulan saw this, she finally stopped running.

The girl was standing by her side ad panted heavily. Now that she was close, Mo Roulan could look at her closely. She was good looking and from her branded clothes, Mo Roulan could tell that she was from a good family. But she didn't care about all this. She went to pick her phone from the ground. When she was about to lift her bag, she heard a muffled sound from behind her.

Mo Roulan turned around. The girl's head was lower and her shoulders were trembling. Mo Roulan felt embarrassed thinking about her cold behavior towards the girl. The girl must be scared and she didn't even ask if she was hurt anywhere. She didn't have any friends in her past life. She hadn't comforted anyone in her last life as well as in this one so she didn't know how to comfort the girl. But she couldn't see a small girl shedding tears like this. For her, the girl was younger than herself as she had already lived for twenty-three years in her past life. So she stepped forward and awkwardly patted her shoulder hoping that her presence would make her feel less afraid. However, the girl suddenly hugged her waist tightly and started crying loudly. This time she didn't try to muffle her sobs.

Stunned Mo Roulan could only hug her back and pat her back comfortingly. She felt the wetness of her tears on her clothes but she didn't stop her. In between her sobs and hiccups, Mo Roulan heard her say many words. 'Thank you' , 'I was so scared' , 'I will never come here again' , 'I am so stupid' etc. Seeing her behaving like this, Mo Roulan actually found her very cute.

They stood there like this for a few minutes. She glanced at the watch on her left hand. Mo Roulan was worried that she would be late on her first day. The girl finally left her and wiped her face. She gave her a small embarrassed smile and spoke to her in a soft voice.

"Hello, My name is Shen Youlin. Thanks for saving me earlier."

Mo Roulan saw that her left cheek was red. It seemed that she was slapped by them.

"Hello! I am Mo Roulan. "

That's how Mo Roulan gained her first and best friend in the huge City H.

One day in the future, Mo Roulan would wonder whether gaining Shen Youlin as a friend was a fortunate or an unfortunate thing. Their friendship will have to cross many hurdles to finally bring them to their destined fate.
