Mr Indifferent CEO, Be Careful With My Heart

CHSPTER 462 – Return

"Cheers!" Ye Cheng said jovially as he raised his glass up and waited for others to do the same.

"Cheers," everyone chorused in turn.

"And now, let the celebration begin!" He lightly hit his glass cup against Li Jing's own but before they did, he pecked her on the lips first, then they both drank.

Soon they were separated from each other as everyone rushed up to the happy couple to cheers to them.

Even Tang Zixin who normally wasn't the overly too joyful type came forward to meet them.

"Congratulations, Li Jing. It is happening fast. Soon it would be one anniversary and then a decade, then a silver jubilee anniversary and a golden jubilee and then…"

"Thanks Tang Zixin. I appreciate your coming here today."

"It is nothing. I would not have missed seeing you smile today."

'Hey do you mean that I do not smile?" Li Jing's face soon turned into a frown as she pouted her lips at him.

"Oh no! I never said that, Jing-er. I was just joking."

She refused to answer him. "Li Jing, please forgive me."

"Hmmm," she still looked angrily at him but within her, that was so far from it. After some seconds, she suddenly showed her toothed smile to him and giggled. "I know, I was only pulling your legs. You should have seen how you looked. So serious and kind of sad. Do not mind me. You know it is not every time I get to hang out with you."

Tang Zixin could not complain but only smile. At her. She was thoughtful.

"Now stop being so, umm… what word should I use? Stock up? Hmm, that may not be right. Anyways, you know what I am talking about. Be free and mingle, Zixin. I am rooting for you."

"Hey, Li Jing, I do mingle. Believe me, you, I think I am better at doing so than your boyfr… I mean husband."

"Hahhaaa hhhaaa…" she could not help giggling at him. He was trying to make a joke. Wow! "Hey, Ye Cheng is better, I would say. Just awfully misunderstood," Li Jing defended.

"Aren't I misunderstood as well?"

"Hmm…" she placed a finger on her jaw thoughtfully for some seconds and finally came up with something. "Maybe."

"Maybe?" Tang Zixin did not know when he let both hands down and mistakenly spilled his drink on the floor. "Oh boy! I am sorry," he said in a cringe.

"Hahahaa…." Her lovely laughter filled the room in no time. She was enjoying this side of him. She did not know why he was trying so hard when all she needed was for him to be him. Apparently, her not so cautious laughter, only brought all attention their way, further making Tang Zixin feel shyer.

As soon as Li Jing noticed this, she quickly straightened her back and apologized silently to everyone for the disturbance, before holding Tang Zixin by the hand and pulling him away to somewhere with less eyes.

"Sorry about that. I was at fault."

"Nah, it is okay. I am not mad at you. I was just, you know caught off guard."

"Where you now? Anyways, I am glad about that. Come, what would youlike to take?"

"There you are." Both Li Jing and Tang Zixin froze as their heads turned after some seconds to see the owner of the voice. "I thought you were hurt or something."

"Ye Cheng."

"Tang Zixin. Tell me love, did he hurt you?" Ye Cheng asked looking sternly at Li Jing. novelenglish.net . Fɪre.net

"No, he didn't." she replied almost instantly. The last thing she wanted was for the two important male in her life to get angry at each other.

"Is that so?"

"Yes, honey. I am fine."

"Great then!" Instantly, all the stern look on his face faded away and was replaced almost immediately with a genuine smile. "I was just kidding. I am glad you are alright, love."

"Hey, I am the one who was offended here," Tang Zixin complained when he saw Ye Cheng ignore him.

"Yes, honey, I was the one who embarrassed him not the other way around," Li Jing defended.

"Sigh. Why don't you want me to play a while? Now you have ruined the fun. Anyways, let's get back, shall we?" This time around he directed his question at Tang Zixin. "Oh and sorry for my wife's mistake."

"No worries. I knew it was all a joke. I just had to play along. At least it nice seeing her show concern for me." He winked at Li Jing when he said that.

It was his own turn to tease Ye Cheng.

"I would pretend I didn't hear that." Not saying anything further, he walked away with a proud smile on his face and his wife's arm in his with Tang Zixin tailing behind them.

Meanwhile, while everyone was busy enjoying themselves, a white car came to a halt in front of the huge mansion and a lady stepped outside.

She was clad in the same shade of whiteness of the car she came in with her hair, proudly allowed to cascade behind her.

She put a leg forward and the small low thigh slit at the side of her curvy gown parted way to show her slender looking legs enough to disagree with her age.

As soon as she got to the door, someone was already waiting to open it for her. With a single nod at him, she paved her way into the house.

CLICK! CLICK!

With each step she took, she made her presence known in the full house as her white heels, made their impact on the ground.

Some of the maids who saw her, immediately recognized her and bowed their heads to greet her.

Nevertheless, it did not change the neutral look on her face as all she did to respond was a simple lowering of her head.

Soon she came upon the anniversary celebration and paused.

"Mo…"
