Mr. CEO Loves The Devilish Beauty Chapter 138 - Disappointment

Ye Jie went to pick Xu Mey in the evening but didn't stay for long. He was feeling guilty that he told Xu Mey he'll spend the day with her and yet he ran away.

"Ah Jie," Xu Mey cautiously called him.

"En."

"Are you really okay?" She asked with a worried face.

He smiled looking at the road and replied, "Of course, I'm fine. Baby, stop worrying about me. I'm not that weak."

"Are we going to talk about it?" She asked referring to the discovery of his parents' identity.

"Sorry, baby but not now. We'll talk but it's not the right time. I need some time, okay?" He gave her a sideways look.

"Okay." She agreed. Even she knew that it was not easy for him to accept the changes in his life that soon. After a moment of silence, she asked, "How's Azalea?"

"She's fine." He replied, not telling her about Azalea's waking up. He wanted to surprise her by bringing Azalea home. He knew Xu Mey would be really happy to see her. Also, he needed to surprise both Xu Mey and Azalea at the same time.

While he was smiling to himself, Xu Mey noticed that his smile was very different today. It was almost like he was contented. Like he had found the missing piece of his life all of a sudden. Xu Mey felt relaxed seeing that smile on his face.

Late at night, Xu Mey was stretched out beside Ye Jie with his hand over her stomach and his head in the crook of her neck. He was placing soft kisses making her feel jittery. "Ah Jie," she called out his name.

"Hmm." He hummed distractedly.

"Do you think I'm a bad person?" Ye Jie stopped kissing her and held her shoulder to make her turn her body to face him.

"I don't." He answered with a straight face.

Xu Mey bit her bottom lip and Ye Jie's brown eyes deepened as he followed her movements. "What if I'm really a dark person with no hope?" She asked.

"You can be dark, baby. But not hopeless." He started. Xu Mey lifted her gaze to stare at his handsome face. "I know what dark people look like. I have seen one. As for you, how can you be dark when you are even scared to be alone in dark?" He took a pause to kiss the tip of her nose and added, "Even if you're a bit dark then there is no worry. I'm right here to pull you out of that darkness."

Xu Mey blushed and scooted closer to his body with the side of her face against his heart and her arms wrapped around his back. Ye Jie placed his chin at the top of her head as his one arm stroked her hair and the other one stayed on her waist.

"Ah Jie, who's the dark person you were talking about?" He heard her muffled voice and took a deep breath.

"There is only one. My best friend, Ru." He replied.

"How can you say that she's a dark person?" Xu Mey asked with curiosity.

"Because baby, that person has made peace with her solitude. The darkness doesn't scare her at all. Instead, the dark nights are her favorite. She believes that in the dark night you can see the faces of the people they hide in the bright day. The dark nights are like a spell to her; the spell can make even the sun sleep." Ye Jie talked with an indescribable heavy feeling.

"She must have been through a lot to have such bitter feelings." Xu Mey remarked.

"Feelings?" Ye Jie chuckled as Xu Mey felt the reverberation. "She grew up in a family where feelings were named a taboo. You'd be called weak if you had the slightest bit of unnecessary emotions."

Xu Mey was surprised to hear his remarks. "Her family had such serious rules for an innocent person?"

"Innocence?" He paused. "I don't remember her being innocent. She was naive once to think that the world outside her family was better. But soon, the world showed her the real definition of darkness."

"Can I meet her?" Xu Mey asked.

"I'll let you meet her soon. She just came back to the country. Now, go to sleep." He said and kissed her head before relaxing in her embrace. It was very natural now to lay in each others' arms or to plant a kiss. It was like they've been doing it for years.

-The next morning-

When both Xu Mey and Ye Jie were at the breakfast table, he asked, "Are you taking a day off today as well?"

"Ha?" She lifted her head to look at him. "No... I have to go. Today is Vintage's Jewelry Exhibition and I have to be there." She replied.

"Okay." He replied not wanting to get in between her work.

After breakfast, he drove her personally to the Vintage Gems Building. She unbuckled her seat and looked at him staring at her face. "What?" She asked. "Is something on my face?" She touched her face.

"No... But something is missing." He said.

"Huh? What is missing?" She leaned a bit to see her face in the mirror when Ye Jie planted a kiss on her lips.

"That was missing." He said as she looked at him with her slightly parted lips. His hand lifted up to caress her cheek and his thumb kept skipping over her bottom lip in an intimate manner. "Take care of yourself. And don't forget to miss me. Tell me when you need the ride back. I'll come to pick you."

Xu Mey nodded in her daze reeling because of the sensations his thumb was creating. She jolted a bit and shook her head. "I'll tell you." She hurriedly got down the car and almost ran inside the office building.

Late at night, two figures were playing a staring game- one tall and one a bit shorter.

He walked a bit closer to her while staring at her face with raging fury. She opened her mouth to say something but no words could be formed.

"Baby, tonight you have really disappointed your husband." She heard his sadened voice and lifted her eyes to look at the hurt in his brown eyes.
