Mr. CEO Loves The Devilish Beauty

Chapter 94 - Ghosts Of Past

After their touching banter, Ye Jie held Xu Mey’s hand intending to leave the park. But suddenly, Xu Mey’s eyes fell on something and she stopped walking making Ye Jie halt as well.

He looked back at her questioningly but she wasn’t looking at him at all. She gave the limelight to soap bubbles. The way she opened her eyes wide to look at them with desire and the way her mouth was opening, closing and turning into a smile looked adorable to Ye Jie.

At this moment, he really wanted to pull her cheeks and without even realizing it himself, his hands raised, held both her cheeks and pulled them making her growl lowly.

"What do you think you’re doing?" She asked scrunching up her face.

"You looked too adorable for me to resist." Since he called her adorable and that too with a bright grin, it made her scowl and she crossed her arms in front of her chest.

"I’m not adorable," She grumbled while avoiding his gaze.

"Yes Yes... My cherry wife is not adorable..." Ye Jie bit down his laughter. He held her small face in his hands and made her look at him. "My Cherry Wife is beautiful." He said sincerely.

She looked down to hide the blush which tinted her face.

"Do you like soap bubbles?" He asked to cover her embarrassment. She nodded. "Do you want to play with them?" She shook her head. "Why? If you like them, you should play with them."

"Dear husband, at one point we all like books, music, and movies. But there comes a time when that exact book is left untouched, that music left with no listener and that movie left with no one to watch it in a big theatre. Just because I like soap bubbles, doesn’t mean I want to play with them. Somethings only look pleasing from a distance." She said looking at the soap bubbles with a sad longing.

"Somethings are pretty up close as well." He started. "A rose is beautiful up close. A soap bubble gives you the illusion of watching rainbows up close."

"A rose tends to wither away with time and a soap bubble tends to burst up at a slight touch."

They didn’t continue the debate and headed to the parking lot. She was a pessimistic person and turning her into an optimistic one was a difficult task. "Should we go to the KTV?" Wu Xia suggested enthusiastically.

Everyone shared a look and before anyone could say anything, they heard a voice calling out, "Bro, sis-in-law!" Ye Jie turned and saw Ye Jun waving his hand in the air like a child.

Ye Jie held his forehead as he sighed. Ye Jun ran up to him while panting. "Good thing I caught you guys here. Why did you not invite me as well?" He looked accusingly at Ye Jie.

"How did you find us here?" Instead of answering, Ye Jie asked his own question.

"I asked your assistant, Qi Guan." Ye Jun replied nonchalantly.

Meanwhile, He Jian pulled Xu Mey and bent his head to whisper, "Are you sure that this one is Ye Jie’s brother?"

"I’ve been meaning to ask that too," Wu Wang chimed in from the side.

"That’s what the world knows." She replied half-heartedly.

"Do you think there is some kind of mistake?" Lin Shen asked.

"How would I know that?" She retorted.

While they were speculating Ye Jie and Ye Jun’s relationship, Ye Jun was talking animatedly to his brother. "I didn’t want to follow you guys but Zhou Qi came back and she insisted on meeting sis-in-law. Then mom pressurized me and I had to bring her along. Oh, wait!" He suddenly remembered, "Where did this girl run off to?" He looked around and jogged up to a nearby place. He came back with a delicate looking girl trailing behind him.

The girl can’t be described as a peerless beauty but she had her own charms. She was wearing a body-hugging dress with red stilettos. She had glistening eyes and in one look, she gave the feeling that people would want to line up to protect her.

But her arrival was akin to thunder for a certain someone. Wu Wang’s gaze didn’t leave her figure and Xu Mey along with Qiao, Jian, and Shen could feel the temperature dropping in the surroundings.

Xu Mey leaned back a little and asked in a low whisper, "Am I seeing things? Or the girl in front of us has the same face as-"

"As the painting in Wang’s house." Li Qiao completed her sentence.

"Sh*t!"

"Fu*k!"

All of them cursed simultaneously. No matter how you run, some people just walk right back in your life. It’s just a matter of when and how? And some people are like ghosts, who leave themselves but leave behind a shadow of their’s to pester someone. This delicate looking girl was akin to that ghost in Wu Wang’s life.
