Birth of the Devilish CEO: So what if i'm a Lady?

Chapter 116: He does not love me

If the Chef had committed that offense when Yi Lan was in his most pleasant mood, then Chef wouldn't have been sacked, maybe his punishment would have been six months or one year salary reduction but the Chef was so unlucky to have made such a stupid mistake like that when the Big Boss was in his worst mood. Even Fei Yan had the same mindset that his Boss mood would change after sometime but reversed was the case because Yi Lan's mood got worst each passing day. Nobody had a peace of mind during this period of time. Fei Yan was not spared from Yi Lan's wrath too, he has been sent to the dungeon on Yi Lan's command five times just in the period of two weeks. He couldn't relay to anyone the hell he went through in the dungeon. They tortured him as though he was Yi Lan's mortal enemy. Since then, he worked ten times harder so that he will not experience such torture ever again. He tried everything in his power to at least make his angry Boss meet to Young Miss Lie but all his hard work was always futile since he had always failed in such attempts which usually landed him in the dungeon. He still recalled what Yi Lan did to him after he failed to block Miss Lie's car on that faithful day.

"Was your driving skills always this poor? You are called my Executive assistant but you cannot accomplish a simple task such as blocking a car that was just in front of you some moment ago? I think I have treated you too nicely which have made you actually forget your duty? Since you have chosen to become so lazy within just a space of one week, present yourself at the dungeon right this minute", Yi Lan had stated fearfully while throwing him out of the car on the express road. Fei Yan had to wait for at least four hours on the express road before someone took pity on him and decided to give him a ride to a point where he would be able to board a cab to his actual destination. Lie Ruge on the other hand immersed herself in working over time in the office. She worked like an horse without any rest and as a result of this, she fell seriously ill. All her servants were petrified when the doctor informed them that their Boss was ill due to stress and that she needed at least three days rest for her to fully recover but Lie Ruge still resumed work the next day not minding her health. Her servants could easily calculate the number of hours their boss had slept for the past two weeks, it wasn't up to twelve hours. She has worked overnight more than she had worked the normal work hours. She had told Xu Feng to personally change her entire schedule because she did not want Yi Lan to easily guess that she was avoiding him. She even denied the guys entry into her office and Mansion. Xiao Bai's case was entirely different, she did not intentionally want to avoid them but it was after those planning an attack on Lie Ruge striked her first before she made up her mind to steer clear of them for the time being. If it had not been for Firefly's expert skills in medicine, she would have been poisoned to death during one of her photoshoots. Xiao Bai who was always cheerful became a shadow of her old self. She behaved as if she had broken up with her lover when everyone in the whole Major City knew that she didn't have one. She often lock herself up in her room whenever she did not have any shoots. Mr and Mrs. Xiao noticed the sudden change in their daughter's behaviour. Her mummy even overheard her sobbing in her room the day Xiao Bai decided to stop keeping in touch with Yi Lan. Her mummy heard her saying, "Why are you crying you silly girl? He doesn't even love you

anyways so this is for the best. I'm sure he will be so happy that I won't be there to pester him. How can Yun Yi be so heartless not to reciprocate my love for him? I know he does not want to outrightly reject my feelings for him because he is afraid I will get hurt because of it, but I did rather prefer his outright rejection than for him to give me false hopes. Despite the fact that he does not love me, I still don't want to see him harmed because of me", Xiao Bai had said in between her sobs. Madam Xiao was so heartbroken to see her precious daughter in such condition. She chose not to pry answers from her daughter but instead, she tried every possible way to cheer her up but upon all her efforts to make her daughter smile like she normally does, Xiao Bai still remained sad and heartbroken more than ever. Even when Madam Xiao bought Xiao Bai's favourite strawberry cake and cookies for her, Xiao Bai had no appetite to eat her favourite bakeries, she just kept on staring at them without even having a bite out of any of them. If she knew how terrible and regretful Yun Yi was for not realizing his feelings for her earlier, she would have been so happy but too bad she didn't know just how much Yun Yi regretted his actions. Tan Fan who had no love problem was so bored without everyone's presence. With Yun Yi being all serious all of a sudden, Tan Fan could not find anyone to hang out with. He wasn't really in the mood to play around when his two best friends were lovesick. With Yi Lan's temper being at it's worst, he was so afraid to pay him a visit since Yi Lan will not hesitate to torture him to death if he dared to provoke him in his current condition.
