Chapter 307 - The Kiss: Conviction And Heartbreak

********

CHAPTER 307

Right before Ye Cheng’s eyes, he watched his terror happen. He watched the girl he liked kissing another man.

Due to the fact that he was having a serious conversation with his mother, his attention was divided and did not know how the kiss happened or who initiated it.

BADUM! BADUM!

He blinked several times and forgot every other thing in life at that moment as he stayed still watching as Tang Zixin’s lips moved on Li Jing’s.

"Ye Cheng? Hello, Ye Cheng? Michael, are you there? Michael, what is going on, answer me son," his mother’s voice rang out continuously but that did not do anything to pull him out of his shock.

His heart stopped beating the next moment and a certain sharp pain enveloped it. It was like the kind of pain he felt when she was gone but this time, it was worst.

Way much worse than anything he had ever felt before. He blinked after some time and even though their kiss felt like forever, it was but for a few seconds.

Ye Cheng could not believe his eyes, but what he saw was so hard not to believe.

"Ye Cheng! Michael, answer me son, please talk to mother."

Hearing his mother’s anxious voice, Ye Cheng blinked again and this time, a tear dropped along with it.

He swallowed hard before opening his mouth and finding his lost voice. "Ah... um."

"Michael? Michael is that you? Michael, speak to me son, do not get me worried, please. Talk to mother."

"Hello." His deep baritone voice resounded into the call and his once smiling and full of life face instantrly became cold, dull and daring.

"Son? What happened?"

"Talk to you later mum. I need to go." He pulled the phone from his ear and turned his phone screen off instantly.

"Ye Che..." BEEP! BEEP! "Ye Cheng? Ye Cheng?" His mother continued yelling into the phone but the call already went dead.

She was not at ease anymore. One minute they were talking about the lost girl and the leads they have had when suddenly he stopped talking, going mute for a while.

"Ye Cheng. Please be okay, baby. God please keep my son," Li An prayed.

On the other hand, Ye Cheng balled his hand into a fist at his side. He was very angry and bitter at the sight but what more could he do? He wished to go over there and punch some beating into Tang Zixin but that singular act would only make Li Jing mad at him.

Not that he cared anymore though.

He watched as they disengaged from the kiss, with Tang Zixin pressing their heads together and muttering something to her.

He couldn’t just take it anymore and decided to try something to see if he still mattered to her. He unlocked his phone and placed a call through to her.

Ring! Ring! This chapter is updated by novelenglish.net . Fire(.)nᴇt

Hearing her phone ringing, that had brought both parties back to reality and caused them to separate.

Quickly, Li Jing took out her phone and checked the caller only for her eyes to lock with the name she did not want to recall at this moment.

’Ye Cheng! Not now. I cannot face you now. I just let something that should have happened to happen.’ Li Jing thought and locked her phone screen, ignoring the call.

Unknown to her, Ye Cheng was right there watching how everything played out.

’Li Jing... Did you ask us to wait just so you could be with Tang Zixin? Did I mean nothing to you that it took you so little a time to forget me and move on with someone else? To think that I hurried down here just for you, only to see you with another guy.’ Ye Cheng thought to himself.

A sad smile appeared on his lips before he turned around and made his way back to the car.

’I was stupid to believe you felt something for me. All those kisses and times together, I wished it never happened. I wished I never opened my heart again and more importantly, thank you for making it easier for me. Now I can just focus on finding her. I would rather hope in finding her and keep this heart of mine close than let her heart be broken again.’

With that, he switched off his phone, dropping it in his pocket and walked out of the park before crossing the road.

"I’m sorry," Tang Zixin apologized when he noticed Li Jing closed her eyes and held her phone to her chest. He knew he had crossed the line and done something he should not have done but it was too late now.

"Li Jing." He called out her name softly but she did not answer or respond to him. "Li Jing, I am sorry. I did not mean... Well I wanted to kiss you, I have wanted to for quite some time now but I wasn’t going to do it without your permission. It was just that just now..."

"I understand," she opened her eyes and said.

She knew what he was going to say. He was sacred of her rejection and did not know what came over him that he kissed her all of a sudden.

She understood. After all it happened with Ye Cheng and herself. But that wasn’t what made her that way.

Although the kiss contributed but if there was anything, it was that it proved to her now more than ever that she was in loved with Ye Cheng and no one else.

When he kissed her, she did not feel any sparks like she felt when she kissed Ye Cheng. It was different, although pleasant, it just wasn’t the same.

She felt nothing and that was why she did not respond to the kiss.

’Ye Cheng, I am sorry but now I know better. I know my heart belongs to only you and would beat just for you. Soon I would fix things and return to your side once more.’ Li Jing thought.
