CHAPTER 317

When Yang Wenkai heard Ye Yumi say she had feelings for this college guy she was talking off, he felt disappointed.

'Was I too late? Someone already has her heart and that someone is not me,' he thought.

"I was so excited when he told me about his feelings for me. A date with a guy I like and he loves me. What could go wrong? So, I agreed to go out with him on this official date."

"Which is today, right?" Yang Wenkai asked.

"Yes, today. I left the company a little bit past working hours. I did not even go back home to get a change of clothes as I had what I would wear sent to me in my office," Ye Yumi said and let out a mocking chuckle.

**Flashback**

Ye Yumi was so excited to go on her date. To be honest, it was her first date. She wanted to look good. Not too showy and not too conservative either.

She wore a pitch coloured off-shoulder body con dress that stopped above her knees. The sleeves were made of netting materials. She matched it with a dazzling pair of silver heels, earrings and a purse.

Her straight black hair was left to flow down on her shoulders and back. After applying lipgloss to her lips, she took a last glance at herself in the mirror. Ye Yumi then left her office with a bright smile that could shame the sun.

She arrived at the restaurant they agreed to meet at the exact time. But the guy that asked her out had come.

"Okay. No worries. I was too excited that I came very early," she told herself.

Five minutes passed. Another ten minutes went. Then the minutes began to grow in numbers. Soon it turned into two whole hours of waiting.

That was when the rain started falling heavily. Luckily, her driver brought an umbrella just like he does every other day. He escorted her back to the car. Ye Yumi asked the driver to wait for another twenty minutes just in case he shows up.

"He might have been stocked in traffic somewhere," she said.

But he never came. Ye Yumi had no choice but to allow the driver to drive the car away from the restaurant. She came up with different excuses that might have caused him to not come for the date.

Some of those excuses sounded stupid. There were only two left. It was either some important matters at his company that occurred or he was held up in traffic.

Not wanting to waste her dress, Ye Yumi ordered the driver to take her to a club. While she was there nodding her head to the beat of the loud playing music, she took a sip from the whiskey she was having.

Just a few minutes later, she saw him. Rong You, the guy who missed their date came to the club with another wan by his side. At first, Ye Yumi thought it was one of those flirty girls disturbing him.

She stood up in hopes of helping him shoo the girl away. If that is done, maybe they could have their date at the club or go to a restaurant nearby. That was not the case. Rong You proved her wrong.

Ye Yumi's steps came to halt when she saw how lovey-dovey and how intimate her date was with another woman. She decided to call him to see the excuse he would give.

"Hello, Rong You," she said once the call got connected.

"Yumi. Hey, I am so sorry I could not make it to our date," Rong You apologised.

"I waited."

"I am sorry to make a goddess like you wait for a moron like me."

"What are you doing now?" Ye Yumi asked the question she has been meaning to ask. The main reason for the call.

"Uhm, I am still at work. Something very urgent came up," Rong You said.

That was the height of it. Ye Yumi could not believe her ears and her eyes. If he was at work, then which Rong You was at the club rocking another woman at a corner.

Tears filled Ye Yumi's eyes. She did not say anything else and just ended the call. She hoped he would call her again but he did not. Rong You just shoved his phone into his pocket and got down on the 'business' he had to do.

**Flashback Ends**

Ye Yumi could not stop the number of tears flowing down her eyes as she explained all that happened at the club till this moment.

"Rong You stood me up. He ditched our date for someone else," she cried.

Yang Wenkai was seething in rage. How dare that insolent bastard do this to Ye Yumi? She does not deserve to be treated that way. Yang Wenkai had the urge to go and find that stupid Rong You and beat him to a pulp.

But he could not. First of all, there was the rain. Secondly, he had to comfort Ye Yumi. She at least needs a good shoulder to cry on. Then lastly, it would only make that Rong You realize his mistake.

To some extent, Yang Wenkai was happy that the date did not happen. He still had a chance to show his love for Ye Yumi. But he was sad to see her this heartbroken.

Yang Wenkai moved closer to her and engulfed her in a warm comforting hug. Ye Yumi cried bitterly. She could not explain or control her emotions. Maybe it was the alcohol taking over.

Pft... Who was she kidding? Alcohol has no hand in this. Ye Yumi did not love Rong You. She just liked him not loved him. But the feeling of being cheated on by a guy when she was not even in a relationship with him hurt so bad.

It was her first step in wanting to try loving someone or feeling loved. But everything became bad in a matter of time.

"I just want to be loved. Why can't I be loved?"
