Mr. CEO Loves The Devilish Beauty

People oftentimes say that they can’t live without the person they love. We frequently hear them even say they’d die without them.

But...

No-one dies...

The insignificant absence of a person can’t kill you...

The mere so-called farewell can’t kill you...

But...

Love is a foreign feeling...

A person’s embarkation might not kill us but a few words have the endowment to kill us. If not completely then figuratively.

In Wu Wang’s case, Zhou Qi’s departure from his life didn’t kill him literally and the reason was that he had a lot of people who needed him. But that doesn’t mean he didn’t die figuratively.

Something inside him also died that day. Or maybe she took that part of him with herself.

When Azalea noticed that both Wu Wang and Zhou Qi were avoiding each other, she thought of a plan. "Jun-Ge, I want ice-cream. Come and buy me some." She tugged at Ye Jun’s sleeve and pulled him with herself even before he could argue.

Wu Wang and Zhou Qi sat alone in silence. Even though there was a good distance between them, Zhou Qi felt suffocated with the gaze that Wu Wang cast towards her. She got up immediately saying, "I should go back."

"I don’t bite. You can just stay until your cousin comes back." Hearing Wu Wang’s voice, she was stunned. After contemplating, she sat down.

Fidgeting with the hem of her dress, Zhou Qi kept biting her lower lip in nervousness. "How are you?" She asked after mustering up the courage.

"Better than when you left me," his sharp words and the harsh tone was really unfamiliar to Zhou Qi and she felt hurt but she knew that she couldn’t expect anything else from him after what happened. She drooped her head low. ’What? Don’t have anything else to say?’ Wu Wang thought, looking at her.

"Please tell Jun bro that I had to leave," she quickly said and denoted to leave.

"Yes, you should." She froze in her steps. "After all, you’re very good at leaving." Zhou Qi’s heart stopped beating for a second at his words.

With her face looking away from Wu Wang, she said, "Some people are meant to drift apart." ’Because staying might hurt the one they love the most.’ She left the last words unsaid and walked away with tears in her eyes.

Wu Wang looked at her back and said softly, "People drift apart when they are left with no basis to stay. I gave you a million reasons to stay and you gave me a single reason to walk away from me. You said I was your home. Then I want to know when your feet left this home did you left your heart behind or not? ’cause you definitely took mine with yourself." He wiped a sneaky tear that rolled down his eye.

"Wang-Ge, where is Zhou Qi?" Azalea question when she saw Wu Wang sitting alone.

"She left." He gave a curt reply making Azalea facepalm herself inwardly.

’Why the hell are they so stubborn?’ She thought and glared at Wu Wang for being useless.

When the sun started drifting into the west, Ye Jie and Xu Mey decided to leave and that’s exactly when Xu Mey remembered something which made her eyes widen. "Ah-Jie, where is Azalea?"

Ye Jie gave her a weird look and thought, ’Isn’t it too early for you to remember her?’ Obviously, it was sarcasm but he didn’t plan on saying it out loud. Instead, he asked, "What do you mean, baby?"

She held his wrist and said, "I took her to the club last night and I haven’t seen her after that. How can I be so irresponsible?!"

"Oh my gosh! You forgot my sister at the club?" Ye Jie pretended to be shocked while trying hard to stifle his laugh.

"I didn’t do it on purpose. I drank and then I really forgot about her." Seeing Xu Mey’s aggrieved look, Ye Jie couldn’t mess with her any further.

"Baby, calm down! Zelie is with Ye Jun and Wu Wang."

"Really?"

"Yes... Really." Ye Jie assured her making her heave a sigh of relief.

After they packed up everything and got to the car, Xu Mey took Ye Jie’s hand in hers again. On the road, she questioned Ye Jie, "Ah-Jie, let’s suppose that one day you completely forgot about me. What will you do then?"

Ye Jie arched his brows at her and retorted, "First of all, why would I forget you? I don’t plan on doing that at all. So, thinking about what I’ll do is completely useless."

"Ah-Jie, I asked you to just suppose that," she argued.

"Baby, I don’t want to even suppose that ridiculous scenario. I can never forget you at all." He argued pack.

Xu Mey frowned and added, "But you forgot your ex. So, it’s very possible to forget me as well."

Ye Jie immediately stopped the car at the side and looked straight at Xu Mey asking, "Are you going to leave me as she did?" Xu Mey was speechless as she thought about it. "Well, are you?" He urged her.

"No..." She shook her head with force. "Of course, I don’t plan on doing that. Why would I?"

Ye Jie relaxed visibly and caressed her cheek saying, "If you’re not going to leave your Ah-Jie then your Ah-Jie can’t possibly even imagine forgetting his baby."

Xu Mey placed her hand over Ye Jie’s on her cheek and said, "You really don’t leave me with a way out. How am I going to argue with that?"

Ye Jie chuckled. "Do you have to argue?"

"Yes, I do!" She nodded her head like a rattle.

"Fine... Go on, argue all you want." He offered making her brighten up immediately.

"Okay, so about your family-" Ye Jie interrupted her.

"Baby, I told you not now." He was still on the same track of ’not now!’

Xu Mey rolled her eyes at him and palmed his face in her small hands saying, "I don’t think there is anywhere left to run anymore. You need this, Ah-Jie."

He groaned and said, "Baby, even though you coming into my life gathered up all the pieces of my broken heart but there are still gaps and I’m scared that walking into those new relationships will actually make those gaps bigger."

"Aiyo, my stupid husband!" Xu Mey flicked the space between his brows and said, "Haven’t you seen that sometimes ice needs to melt in order to make a withered rose florish again?" Ye Jie frowned at her. "Just like that ice that melts. You have me. Your baby is also broken which means our broken pieces can fit together and no gaps will be left... Ever!"

This was one of those moments when Ye Jie was left speechless by her sincerity and words. Since he didn’t have words to explain his feelings, he pulled her in his arms and buried his face in her neck.
