Love of CEO

15.

Lan Wangji sat in his car just outside the Lan Mansion, waiting with unusual patience. He stared at his phone, hoping for a message from his bunny. Just then, the phone vibrated, and he saw Wei Ying's name pop up on the screen. He smiled, his heart racing as he opened the message.

Wei Ying:
Hey, Lan Zhan

Wei Ying:
I don’t know how to say this to you, but…😣

Lan Zhan’s heart skipped a beat. He could feel the nervousness in Wei Ying’s words, and he quickly typed his reply, wanting to reassure him.

Lan Zhan:
Hey! It’s okay. You can tell me anything.

Lan Zhan:
I will be still your friend. No matter what.

Wei Ying:

Previously on the same day...🕖🕡🕕🕠🕔

After organizing the bookshelf and getting his doubts cleared by Professor Xui Ching, Wuxian was ready to leave. Xui Ching despite only being at the university for six months, when second sem started and there were 4 months left for final exam. At that time Xui Ching had to finsih the syllabus.  But thanks to Wuxian the topper of class, who enjoyed helping him with small tasks. Professor Xui had become well-liked, especially by top students like Wuxian.

As they walked down the hallway, Wuxian spotted his brother, Jiang Cheng, rushing toward them.

"My brother's here, Professor Xui! I’ll head off with him—bye!" Wuxian said just as Jiang Cheng reached them.

“Hey, Wuxian!” Jiang Cheng greeted him, then glanced at the professor. “Hello, Professor Xui!” He turned back to Wuxian with an awkward expression. “Um…sorry about today.”

Wuxian raised an eyebrow, suspicious. “Why are you apologizing, Cheng Cheng? Don’t tell me you went into the girls' washroom by mistake again and need me to cover for you?”

“Hold it!” Jiang Cheng said, his cheeks reddening, especially with Professor Xui standing there. He felt mortified at Wuxian’s casual teasing, especially in front of his crush.

“Actually, I’m saying sorry because I can’t come home with you today,” Jiang Cheng explained quickly. “I’m staying late to work on a group project, so I won’t be able to drive you. Our internship starts soon, so we need to finish it up.”

Jiang Cheng said in one breath, and now he was waiting for Wuxian's dramatic reaction. And as he assumed, Wuxian’s face dropped, and he let out a dramatic sniffle. “Jiang Cheng, how could you?" He showed his puppy eyes. "You know I can't drive and now I’ll have to go home alone!” he started panicking little, thinking about going alone.

Seeing his brother’s distress, Jiang Cheng quickly pulled him into a comforting hug. “I’m sorry, Wuxian! Don’t worry, I’ll call Dad, and he’ll come and pick you up.”

Professor Xui, watching the exchange, as he was watching a emotional drama, and he finally spoke up. “Actually, Wuxian, if you’re comfortable with it, I can give you a ride home. It’s on my way.”

Wuxian’s face lit up as he looked at Professor Xui like he’d been rescued by an angel. He actually saw the wing and angel ring on Professor  Ching. “Really, Professor? Thank you so much!” He bowed deeply, and Jiang Cheng quickly did the same.
