CHAPTER 466

"Be prepared for a night of wonders babe. I am going to make you come buckets," Ye Cheng promised.

That was it. Li Jing could no longer hide her shyness and lowered her head with her face in her hands.

"Yes love, because you are mine and I am yours. I would make your anniversary a memorable one in all ways and a day to remember."

"Stop."

"Why? Is my adorable wife shy for her husband?"

"Yes."

"Why?" He probed further, knowing the truth but felt like teasing her some more.

"Because you are naughty."

"I am naughty only for you, baby." He leaned in close to her and pulled her hands from her eyes. "Now, come dear. Do you want to be like this?"

"Of course not but please stop making me feel shy," she pleaded lightly.

"It is my duty to make you feel all emotions."

"Including being doubted or not…"

He swallowed her next choice of words with his kiss, preventing her from saying any more negative words. He pulled back again and placed both hands on her shoulders, willingly her o look him in the eye with all seriousness.

His pain reflected deep in his own eyes for her to know he hurt indeed when she hurts.

"No. You are allowed to feel all the feelings, except all the negatives but I tend to give you such feelings and for that, I am so sorry my love."

"I know."

"No, my mother was out of line.? Am so sorry about how rudely she spoke to you."

"It is okay, honey."

"No. You are my wife and everyone must respect that fact or they would answer to me. I love you with my life Li Jing and this is no mere words to me."

"I love you too."

"And about the issue, she spoke of," he paused waiting to be sure she was ready to hear it. For a brief moment there, she did not say anything and just looked at him in the eyes.

After some seconds passed, she finally nodded her head. A part of her wished she was prepared much with what he was about to tell her but after some time, she shook it off and accepted her fate.

"Thank you." Rather than speaking, Ye Cheng moved back giving her some space as he held her hand in his and led her to their matrimonial bed.

Once fully seated, he took his seat right next to her, with their hands still joined together and begun his tale.

"I am so sorry that I did not tell you this before, but I was scared that you might not trust in my love and a part of me was not willing to risk it considering I just got you back."

"Okay but so you know, I hate lies. So pour it out as it is today. I am all ears."

"Thanks." He took in a deep breath again and managed a small smile at her. "I once had a childhood love."

"Bai Qing Mei?"

"No. Someone else. Some long there even before I became friends with those treacherous souls." Li Jing giggled at his description of his friends.

Nodding her head, she gave her go-ahead for him to continue. "Okay."

"Hmm. Although we met only once, I liked her and then we never met."

"Wait, I do not understand. What?"

"I never even got her name. It was mother who told me."

"Wow. Where is she now? Why haven't you searched her out all these years? Your mum may know her whereabouts. Perhaps that is why she is being persistent."

"Unfortunately, I am afraid that is not the case."

"Really? Then what is?"

All I know was that she and her parents got involved in an accident and since then, no one had seen her or her body but they have seen her father and he is, unfortunately, dead."

The way he dropped the bomb on Li Jing's poor heart made her turn pale almost instantly.

"Hey, wife, what is wrong?" Ye Cheng asked noticing the change in her facial colour.

She shook her head, unable to answer with her mouth. Somehow she felt touched and affected by the predicament of the said family.

"No, it is nothing," Li Jing voiced out finally.? "I just..." She let out a sigh.

This was not nice. As one who lost her family at a young age. Not that they were dead but she was separated from them not to speak of having to lose the ones you love.

"I am sorry. I know you miss her."

"I do. I mean, I did. What am I saying? Do not get me wrong, my love. For a long time, I kept her in my heart. I made the promise after seeing my mum's devastating state and I also cared for her. To me, she was the one for me as the connection I felt that day, I learned after for quite a long time."

Li Jing did not say anything but smiled a bit. Who was she to complain? She did love someone for almost half of her life.

So why now would she be feeling bad about his?

Although one of the reasons she felt sad a bit, was because it almost seemed like she could not escape his love crushes.

There was the Bai bitch, Qing Mei who still hated her. There was the Fang witch who wanted her husband and now this... Not to mention, there was now Li Xiu who was after all that she had.

But on the other hand, she could not complain again. Ye Cheng faced similar situations with her because of the guys in her life.

"I am so sorry dear. You know I love you."

"Shhh... I do know that. And I am not complaining so long as your love remains mine and only mine. I am sorry for what happened to her."

'But sincerely, Ye Cheng's childhood love, I am sorry for what happened to you.. Please allow me to enjoy my love and marriage with Ye Cheng. I would treat him well and love him with my life, okay?'
