CHAPTER 332
It was just a mix of two things his mind did not need now.
He did not know whom to side with and what to do. Li Jing that he wanted was nowhere close to him again. She was gone, gone. He lost her.
***
While he was busy with his thoughts and problem, a certain visitor walked into the company. The moment everyone landed their eyes on her, they were awed and shocked at the same time.
She did change since the last time they saw her but that wasn’t the best part, they had heard so much of her and now, many feared her and respected her.
"Good afternoon. Afternoon. How are you?" With each step she took, she had people wave and greet her while she replied with a smile and greetings of her own.
In no time she was already up the last floor and made her way to the table of his personal assistant, a friend she had come to have during her last stay there.
It’s been a week since her arrival there and somehow she had managed to make her grandfather feel she was just too busy to even think about his proposal while she was indeed fixing things up and meeting new clients.
Now she was halfway done in establishing a solid foundation and thought it time to pay him a visit.
"Hello, Qing Qing," a soft and lovely voice greeted. Although Han Qing Qing was still very much angry at the fact that Fang Qiuyue had made her boss have another rough day, she was just enchanted by the lovely voice she heard and like a spellbound servant, she slowly peeled her eyes away from her computer screen and looked up to see the owner of the voice.
"Oh my God! Li... L-Li," a small smile appeared on her face with her lips parted. "Li Jing." She titled her head a bit to the side, trying to be sure she was seeing well. "Are you really here?"
"What do you think?" Li Jing smiled sweetly at her friend while winking at her.
"It really is you."
"Of course. Miss me?"
"You bet I did," Han Qing Qing replied and quickly got up from her seat.
She rounded the corner and pulled Li Jing in for a close hug. "I really miss you and your smile and kind heart. What took you so long to return?"
’I am sorry, Qing Qing. Things back at my family home weren’t particularly alright," Li Jing explained.
"Oh my! Hope you haven’t been hurt or too troubled/"
"No, it wasn’t something I couldn’t handle."
’I trust you on that. I know my boss did not pick the wrong person as his financial manager."
"Hehhe stop flattering. Speaking of which, where is he? Is he around?"
"Sure. He is." Her smile faded as she spoke. "You are just right on time, Li Jing. I think he needs you."
"What happened, Qing Qing? Tell me." Her own smile faded as well. She knew something was wrong. Her heart had begun to pound seriously.
"I do not know the context but since you left, since he came back from his business trip, he had been even more grumpy and easily annoyed. Perhaps seeing you would help. I hope it would. I miss the boss I worked with before."
"Oh... Alright, I hope so too. I would talk to him and find out. Thanks." Li Jing smiled and turned towards the door of Ye Cheng’s office.
She did not need Han Qing Qing to announce her. She wanted to surprise him. A part of her laughed at herself.
Here she was trying not to be affected by him but the moment she heard he hasn’t been right, she felt her heart pound faster and now, she wanted to surprise him.
’You are a lost cause Li Jing.’ She shook her head then came to a stop in front of his door.
Taking a deep breath, Li Jing moved her hand close and knocked on the door.
***
Before then, Ye Cheng sat down on his chair in his office and decided to read through some files but after about two minutes of reading the same line, nothing seemed to have been working.
He was getting tired of his plight. He needed to do something before he makes his mother’s efforts and all her risks be in vain.
But what was he to do? Anytime he tried to think, it felt like his mind went on a plain slate when he thought of her.
He knew he would not have been in that condition if she had remained here.
By now he would have been able to court her properly and finalize his feelings.
He knew that with Li Jing there, she may not have left him for Tang Zixin and they would be together. Furthermore, his father would not have anything to use against him.
But the sheer thought of her made his heart ache and he did not want such a pain right now. That was why he resulted in reading through some of the files but unfortunately for him, even that wasn’t helping.
"Come on. Stay focused, Ye Cheng."
***
She waited a few seconds but there was no reply and that was when she turned the doorknob and pushed the door open.
Ye Cheng who was ready to scream at the person that opened the door did not initially raise his head at first to see who it was and just spoke.
"Han Qing Qing, haven’t I told you that I do not want to be disturbed today? So why then do you still..." As he spoke he raised his head to look at her only for his eyes to land on someone else
The last person he had least expected to be standing by his door. Ye Cheng did not know when his lips fell open and the paper in his hands fall off on the table.
"Li... Li Jing."
"Hello, Ye Cheng. Long time no see."
