The CEO's Woman

Chapter 432 Vinegar

Chapter 432 Vinegar

Jiang Yue instantly paled. It was as if a bucket of cold water was poured onto the depths of her soul.

Moon Moon.

Moon Moon.

There was only one person that called her like that. And that was her mentor.

Blake Lee.

Jiang Yue instantly pinched her leg wondering if it was just a dream. She then remembered her mother telling her that Blake Lee should be with Li Jun.

Did that mean that her mentor was aware where she was now?

Did he know about the banquet? Would he come?

A sudden excitement flashed onto Jiang Yue’s face as she started typing on her computer. She tried to create an algorithm to track her mentor but she just hit a dead end.

Her fingers flew towards the keyboard, excitement written all over her face. It was known that Blake Lee died in an explosion, but Jiang Yue always thought that he couldn’t just die like that. However, Jiang Yue did not spare any efforts in looking for him. It was partly because he had repeatedly warned her not to look for him.

Blake Lee had enemies. Bad people that he had offended with his pure genius skills. At that time, Jiang Yue was unaware that he was related to her mother or to the Vercello Family. Now that she thought about it. Was it possible that the latter helped her back then because he knew her mother?

He must have known that she was related to Wang Ruo, right? After all, their resemblance was very uncanny people even thought that they were sisters if not twins.

A small chuckle escaped Jiang Yue’s lips when another message popped up on her screen.

"You have improved."

Followed by another message.

"I’ll see you soon."

Then, the screen totally blacked out.

A satisfied smile was plastered on Jiang Yue’s face as she stared at the black screen. He was still the same. Mysterious as always.

Just like her father.

"Hey... are you okay?" She heard Fu Jin ask. He must have been standing next to her, watching everything unfold.

"Yeah," she answered. "Blake Lee is alive."

"I know," he answered, a flash of an unidentified emotion was seen in his eyes. Since Jiang Yue had her back on him, she was not able to notice that reaction.

"He will see me soon." Though Fu Jin could not see Jiang Yue’s reaction, he was still able to tell that she was smiling. There was just this hint of happiness in her voice. It was too obvious for him not to notice it.

Jiang Yue was still smiling to herself, unaware that the person behind her was already drinking a lot of vinegar. She was too engrossed in her own thoughts to be able to notice the sour atmosphere spreading from her dear husband.

"This calls for a celebration!" She got up from her seat and faced Fu Jin. Her smile was blinding, irritating Fu Jin even more.

"What for?" A hint of sarcasm laced Fu Jin’s voice as he raised his eyebrow at her.

"For... everything!" Still unaware of Fu Jin’s dark face, Jiang Yue looped her arms with his.

"You mean for your mentor?"

"Of course!" She beamed. "I remember when I was still abroad... Blake was the one who helped me a lot. He taught me everything that I know now. It was awesome! I met him when..." Jiang Yue continued her chatter, excitement apparent in her eyes. She was just too happy so she missed the sudden drop in temperature around her.

"One day I was studying some algorithms..." she continued while pulling Fu Jin out of the study. She wanted to cook for him to celebrate this happy occasion.

"Huh? Why aren’t you saying anything? Don’t you want me to cook for you?"

"Are you cooking for me or for your mentor?" Fu Jin asked.

"Why would I cook for him? He is not here!"

"Are you saying that you would have cooked for him if he were here?"

"Oh no! He is a great cook! He knows all of my favorites! Sure if he were here he would have been the one cooking... hehehe..." Jiang Yue laughed as memories of her and Blake Lee clouded her mind. Blake Lee was more than ten years older than her. For some reason, he always thought of him as an older brother. Someone that she never had.

"Once... he asked me about my favorite soup... Oh, he is a vegetarian so he is very familiar with food with lots of vegetables... while I am a meat eater... so he asked me..." she laughed.

"Hahaha... Can you imagine? It was his first time cooking that dish, Jin, and it was heavenly! Just awesome is not enough to describe it! Eh? Jin? Where are you going? Oi!"
