章節 76: "As a Mother I won't allow you to force him..."

When Little Champ saw her, he smiled and shook his head as if indicating 'Not a problem Mommy'.

However, when he saw Si Li, he pursed his lips and took his bag and gave a peck on Lu Lan cheeks and left for his class.

Lu Lan noticed his unusual behaviour and shot an unhappy look to Si Li, as she understood that seeing Si Li, Little Champ ran away "What did you do?"

"Nothing" Si Li unhurriedly started his breakfast.

"Don't lie" Lu Lan was staring at him.

Si Li saw her gaze and sighed as if he needed her help and decided to reply honestly "I asked him about his past".

Although Si Li had told her that he got Little Champ from the orphanage and some past bad incident had happened with Little Champ and because of these, Lu Lan was so attached to Little Champ. She knew how it felt? When you lose your parents at a young age. Si Li saw Lu Lan and Little Champ had a good bond and thought at least Little Champ would start speaking to her, but still, there was no progress in it.

Now, Si Li had decided to retreat from Underworld and before that he had to punish the culprit who killed the Little Champ's parents. Si Li worked hard to find the culprit, but he couldn't find out anything and the person present at that time and the only eyewitness of that incident was Little Champ.

That was the reason, Si Li adopted Little Champ and hid his original identity, so that the enemy didn't hurt Little Champ and Si Li get information from Little Champ.

However, Little Champ decided not to speak and Si Li didn't force him and even treated him as his son but now Si Li wanted to know the truth.

"But… Didn't we decide we won't force him?" Lu Lan thought Si Li wanted to know about the bad incident that had happened with Little Champ in the orphanage.

"You don't have to worry about him. I will handle him" Si Li said.

"No… I won't allow you to force him" Lu Lan immediately rejected him.

Lu Lan thought she knew at what kind of situations Little Champ had lived, if Little Champ wanted to tell about anything on his own then he would tell, otherwise, she never allowed anyone to force him and that anyone included SI Li also.

"But…"

"No but… as a Mother I won't allow you to force him, that's it!" Lu Lan interrupted him and declared her final decision.

"Okay," Si Li agreed as he understood that she wasn't wrong at her place.

Now, Si Li had to find another way.

"How's the contract with Mo Corporation going?" Si Li changed the topic.

Lu Lan felt that she had been extra aggressive on Si Li, so to cover it up, she replied with a smile "It's going well. In fact, I have a meeting with Mr Mo today. If everything goes well, I think I will submit a proposal for the bid by today itself. As the day after tomorrow, the results will be announced".

"Hmm…be careful. There are many people who want to win that bid and they can conspiracy against you whether they are from outside or from INSIDE the company" Si Li warned her and pressured on the word 'INSIDE'.

"Hmmm… I will" Lu Lan said.

After having breakfast, Lu Lan left for the office, after making sure that Si Li was comfortably resting in the room.

Si Corporation

When Lu Lan reached her cabin and opened the door, suddenly, she heard the sound of 'Thud'. She was stunned to see the person inside her cabin.

The person was Li Dayui.

"Miss Lu, you are here?" Li Dayui had a sweet smile on her face.

"Miss Li, What are you doing in my cabin?" Lu Lan asked suspiciously.

"Miss Lu, actually I forgot my file last night, so I came here to get it. Sorry… I came inside your cabin without your permission" Li Dayui said with a sad expression on her face.

"It's okay Miss Li, did you find your file?"

"No… Can you please help me? It's a very important file".

"Sure".

Lu Lan kept her bag on the office table and helped Li Dayui to find her file. After a while, Lu Lan found her file "Miss Li, here is your file".

Li Dayui came towards Lu Lan and took the file and saw the content inside it and sighed "Thank you, Miss Lu. This file is very important for me".

"You're welcome Miss Li," Lu Lan said with a smile on her face.

After Li Dayui left, Lu Lan felt uneasiness and as the file, which fell on the ground earlier by Li Dauyi, was the contract file for which Si Corporation and Mo Corporation were going for the bit.
