Mr. CEO Loves The Devilish Beauty

Chapter 90 - The First Step Of Snug Communication

"I would prefer if you don’t add anything at all, Jian." Li Qiao talked with a solemn face.

"That’s what you always say." He Jian replied in a stern voice.

Ye Jie was on sidelines. He had the general idea of Yu Kim having a crush on Li Qiao when he first visited Lotus Entertainments. After all, a noble young heiress working as a personal assistant would sound absurd unless a little birdie called love was involved.

Today, Ye Jie realized that Li Qiao also had feelings for Yu Kim. What those feelings meant was something he didn’t know.

At first impression, Ye Jie used to think that Lin Shen was the most sensible and quiet person. But lately, he saw that it was He Jian. He had a mysterious aura but it was dignified. He gave the feeling of a strict person who valued his principals.

After calming Yu Kim, Xu Mey brought her to the spot they all had decided to meet for lunch. It was a fast food shop and all of them had to join two tables to make room for everyone.

"I should order for everyone." Yu Kim stood up but Li Qiao’s voice made her halt in her movement.

"Are you planning on letting us starve? Just stay where you are. Wang, come with me." He stood up and walked away to order with Wu Wang.

Xu Mey shook her head at her dumb friends. Even though, the thought was good. The way of execution ruined everything. Li Qiao clearly wanted her to not burden herself but Yu Kim took it as she was incompetent as his assistant. Xu Mey rubbed her forehead as she felt a headache coming on.

"Hey! Cherry wife!" She heard Ye Jie whispering and looked at him wearing the adorable cat ear she bought for him. It made her smile involuntarily. "I want to know something."

Xu Mey beckoned him to sit beside her. "What is it?" She asked as he took the seat beside her.

"What’s up with KimQiao?" He got straight to the point without dawdling.

"KimQiao?" Xu Mey furrowed her brows in confusion.

Ye Jie clicked his tongue and lightly flicked her forehead. "Tsk... Yu Kim and Li Qiao... My Cherry Wife... Got it?"

"Ohhh..." Xu Mey dragged the word nodding her head. "Nothing’s up with KimQiao." She replied after the epiphany of ’KimQiao’.

"Are you sure?" Ye Jie was absolutely not convinced.

Xu Mey sighed wearily. "The problem is that there is nothing between both of them."

"Why? They clearly have feelings for each other." Ye Jie said as he put a French fry in his mouth.

"Aigo! Even you can see that... But both of them don’t want to." When Ye Jie gave her a questioning look, she said. "What was the problem between us?"

"We both didn’t like sharing." Ye Jie replied after a moment of thinking.

"Bingo! That’s the problem with them as well. They both lack the first step of snug communication."

"Snug Communication?" He frowned.

"Aiyo! My dear husband! Snug means Soulful, Neat, Unfeigned and Genuine." Ye Jie gave her a thumbs up and she added, " In our case, you took the first step and broke the wall of silence between us. But in their case, none of them wants to take that first step."

Ye Jie was surprised that she mentioned how he took the first step to start their relationship. He stroked her hair with an affectionate look and a beautiful smile on his face.

"Doesn’t Li Qiao already knows that she likes him?" He asked while bringing a French fry to her mouth and she obediently opened parted her lips to take a bite.

"He does. But what does that change?"

"Why?"

"Yu Kim never said it to him. She never spoke. Not even once. Li Qiao didn’t want her actions to speak, he wanted her to speak. But now, he doesn’t want her to say it at all. If she said that, he’ll lose someone very important in his life and he doesn’t want that."

"What do you mean?" Ye Jie was even more confused now. No one could blame him. Xu Mey spoke in a round about way.

"Li Qiao dated Song Yuling just to spite Yu Kim. But it didn’t work. And then he broke up with Song Yuling. ’Cause he wanted to rightfully have Yu Kim in his life, Qiao didn’t go to confess his love to Yu Kim. Instead, he went to her father."

"So, he told everything to her father?" Ye Jie was surprised.

"It didn’t get to that part. Long story short, Qiao was told that Yu Kim had an engagement since the moment she was born."

Ye Jie’s eyes widened. He sat straight and thought for a while. "But can’t he just snatch Yu Kim from the other guy? They’re only engaged. Not married."

"Can you snatch your brother’s girl, dear husband?" She asked.

"No... It’s not that I can’t I just won’t do it." He replied without missing a beat making Xu Mey smile.

"How can Li Qiao snatch his brother’s fiance?" Her smile looked sad to Ye Jie. It was like instead of Li Qiao, her own heart was breaking.

Preferably, Ye Jie would have loved to solve the knot of love in Li Qiao and Yu Kim but his own wife left him with a bigger knot. ’Which brother is she talking about?’ It was a known fact that Li Qiao was an only child. And the ones he called brothers were right here at this time. His gaze wandered from Wu Wang to He Jian and he felt he was going to lose his mind just thinking about it.
