Mr. CEO Loves The Devilish Beauty

Chapter 331 - Awkward Lies

"Little Mey, look what I got for you," Wu Wang pushed a huge teddy bear inside and Xu Mey’s eyes widened in surprise.

"Wang Ge, what is that?" Xu Mey was eating mouthfuls of porridge contently but looking at that teddy bear bigger than her own self, she frowned.

"It’s a teddy bear." Wu Wang answered matter-of-factly just to tease his little Mey.

"Oh! How cute! I didn’t know it was a teddy bear." Xu Mey rolled her eyes with sarcasm.

Wu Wang smiled widely at her and pinched her nose. Xu Mey swatted his hand away and asked, "Why did you bring it here?"

"For you."

"Don’t you think I’m old enough not to play with stuffed teddy bears?" Suddenly, a fascinating look flashed in her eyes as she added, "Besides I have my own personal teddy bear now. His name is... Ah-Jie."

Listening to her flaunting her love so brazenly, Wu Wang felt strange in his heart. Remembering how Jie was still unconscious after two weeks of the accident, he felt bitter in his heart. But he couldn’t let his little Mey find anything odd. Therefore, he controlled his expressions and tried to crack a joke just to lighten up the mood.

"Little Mey, just because you have Jie now doesn’t mean you have to torture a single dog like me all the time with this dog food. This is so unfair!" He was sulking with a pout like a little kid.

Xu Mey laughed at his expression and hugged him saying, "Wang Ge if you’re that jealous, why don’t you find a partner for yourself. Dr. Yang Ziyi is not bad in my opinion."

"What? That blockhead doctor and me? Sheesh! Don’t make me cringe!" He looked horrified but Xu Mey knew he was pretending. She had seen the way he’d been treated Yang Ziyi during her stay at the hospital. She still wasn’t sure why they were not letting her go back home. Also, her Jie was not coming to see her at all.

"What’s wrong?" Seeing her looking down, he asked with concern.

"Wang Ge, do you think Ah-Jie doesn’t love me anymore?"

"What nonsense are you thinking about?"

"Then tell me why hasn’t he come to see me? Is work more important than me?" Xu Mey looked aggrieved and it broke Wu Wang’s heart. He had never seen her this disheartened before.

He sat beside her to give her a side hug before saying, "What are you saying? He was sitting by your bedside all night? He’s already worried about his work and with you being here, he’s exhausting himself."

"He was here?" Xu Mey looked surprised but excited.

"Of course! But when he came, you were sleeping. He didn’t disturb you because you need plenty of rest." Wu Wang lied straight through his teeth. He had to. It was previously decided that no one will disclose Jie’s condition to her ’till she is stabilized.

"Why was I sleeping like a dead person? I wanted to see my Ah-Jie." Xu Mey whined to him.

"Perhaps because your body needs extra sleep now." Hearing He Susu’s voice Xu Mey looked up at her in surprise.

"Am I that sick?" Xu Mey felt worried suddenly. What if something was wrong with her body? It can’t be, right?

"Aiyo! My silly child, you are not sick." This voice came from Fan Bingbing who smiled cheerfully at her while stroking her hair. Xu Mey felt odd. She was missing something here. But what? She looked at the cheeky smiles on everyone’s faces. Even her father was grinning at her. But everyone’s smiled looked rather forced.

"What? What’s going on here? Am I missing something here?" Xu Mey was really confused now.

"Nope! We just want to see you healthy." Xu Mey obviously didn’t believe this reasoning at all.

"Dad, won’t you tell me what’s going on?" Xu Mey tried to play the cutesy act with her father and it worked! At least she thought it did.

Xu Cheng rubbed her head and said, "Nothing is going on. Just take rest. You have to get your healthy glow back otherwise your husband will be heartbroken."

Recalling something, Xu Mey gasped and stared at Lin Shen in surprise. "Shen Ge-Ge, there is only one week in your wedding. What am I even doing in the hospital?"

Lin Shen smiled at her and said, "We have pushed the wedding ahead. Your health is the most important matter for us."

"No, you can’t do that. It’s your ten year anniversary next week and that’s why you chose that date to get married. How can you push it?" Xu Mey felt guilty knowing how much Sun Ju was anticipating their wedding.

"Oi! Wedding is eventually going to happen. He and I are not running away." Sun Ju reassured Xu Mey in her own style.

"But-," Xu Mey wanted to argue further but Sun Ju cut her off.

"No buts! We pushed the wedding because now we have decided to hold a double wedding. Wouldn’t it be more special?"

"Double wedding?" Xu Mey was surprised.

"Yup! Brides; Sun Ju and Yu Kim. Grooms; Lin Shen and Li Qiao. Isn’t it more fun?" Sun Ju smiled in her usual manner not letting Xu Mey feel any change in her manner.

"It is special." Xu Mey was happy to hear that but... "You always wanted to marry on your ten year anniversary."

Sun Ju flicked her forehead lightly and said, "Silly! I just realized that if I got married on my ten-year anniversary, it will mean that Shen will only have to buy me a cake once a year. I’m too greedy for cake. I definitely want more than just one." That reasoning... was a lot weird for Xu Mey to digest.

But seeing Sun Ju’s infectious happiness, she didn’t comment her doubts at all.
