Mr. CEO Loves The Devilish Beauty Chapter 178 - Holding Hands

"Jun-Ge!" Azalea excitedly opened the door of Wu Wang's Penthouse to greet Ye Jun. Her cheerful disposition was infectious for anyone and Ye Jun wasn't an exception.

He smiled brightly and ruffled her hair a bit saying, "Hey, little princess!" He looked behind her to see Wu Wang staring at him. "Hello, Mr. Wu Wang!"

"Woah! What's with this distant greeting? Wang-Ge is my brother and Jun-Ge is also my brother that means both of you are also brothers. Right, Wang-Ge?" Wu Wang looked at Azalea's eager face and couldn't help but agree with her.

"Where are we going?" Ye Jun asked after a moment of silence.

"I don't know. Both of you should decide." Azalea left the decision to both of them.

While Ye Jun pondered, at the side, Wu Wang said, "How about going to the river bank for a picnic? Today is really perfect for a picnic."

Ye Jun looked out the glass wall to see a clear blue sky and sunny sky. "I like that idea. What do you say, Zelie?" Ye Jun looked at Azalea for her opinion.

"I love the idea as well. Let's go!" Azalea excitedly raised up from the sofa but Wu Wang pushed her shoulders a little to make her sit back down.

"Zelie, for the picnic, we'll have to prepare some stuff. So, you sit down and let me get somethings settled first." Then he turned to Ye Jun and asked, "Do you know how to cook?"

"Yup. Since I love to eat that means I love to cook as well." Ye Jun replied without hesitation making Wu Wang chuckle a bit.

"Follow me then," Wu Wang took Ye Jun to the open kitchen leaving Azalea to herself in the living room.

In the meantime, at Peach Estates:

Xu Mey was looking for clothes to wear when Ye Jie walked behind her and hugged her waist while propping his chin on her shoulder.

"Ah-Jie, what are you doing?" Xu Mey wiggled a bit.

"I'm hugging my wife, what's wrong with that?" Ye Jie argued.

"But I have to wear some clothes. Let me find something to wear, I can't spend the whole day in the bathrobe," Xu Mey replied with an unamused look.

Ye Jie twirled her in his arms making her turn to look into his eyes. She gasped at the sudden movement and held his shoulders to support herself. She lifted her eyes to glare at him but Ye Jie's feathery kiss on her lips caught her by surprise.

"Baby, I don't mind you in the bathrobe." He dipped his face closer to her ear and went on, "I believe, you look the most gorgeous even without the bathrobe."

Xu Mey's cheeks heated up and she punched his chest making him chuckle loudly even Xu Mey felt reverberation through his body. She pushed him a little saying, "Ah-Jie, let me concentrate. I have to cook something as well, I'm famished right now."

'It'd have been surprising if you weren't famished, baby!' Ye Jie didn't dare say it out loud and only smiled to himself. "Baby, I'm famished as well." With his husky, low voice when his eyes fell on her swollen lips, he took a sharp breath.

Clearly, it wasn't unnoticed by Xu Mey. "Ah-Jie!" She raised her voice and Ye Jie reluctantly retracted his hands from her slender body with a groan.

"Okay! But you have to wear this," he turned around and rummaged out a beautiful white pleated skirt with a red floral pattern and a red colored shirt.

Xu Mey squinted her eyes at the clothes in his hand and asked, "Are we going somewhere?"

Ye Jie kissed the space between her brows and answered, "Yes, baby. We are going somewhere. Now, wear it fast." With that, he left her alone in the walk-in closet.

When Xu Mey walked out donning the clothes Ye Jie gave her, she looked at herself in the vanity mirror and thought of a quote, 'Those painful memories are what help us make it to tomorrow and become stronger.(*)'

Once she was told that with time, she'll learn the reasons for all that she had been through. Today, looking at her own reflection, she felt happy. Every person does live the time that's been given to them. It's true that time never comes back and it stays as a painful reminder. But it's also true that time will also be a reminder of the fact that when you're struggling with life, you weren't alone. Time was there with you. Time might not be in your favor always but the only reason for that would be; that time wasn't yours, to begin with.

Xu Mey walked downstairs and saw Ye Jie donning washed-up jeans with a white button-up shirt with the first couple of buttons left open. Looking at him, Xu Mey could only think of one way to describe him; super handsome.

When Ye Jie turned to look at Xu Mey, he was tongue-tied by the way she was exuding the aura of a white rose; innocence and purity.

"Shall we?" He extended his hand towards her and Xu Mey gladly slid her small hand in his big ones.

While driving, Ye Jie was looking at the door ahead while Xu Mey was frowning by his side. She kept her eyes on the side of his face. Waiting at the red signal, Ye Jie noticed her scowling look and asked, "What's wrong, baby?"

"Ah-Jie!" She called him.

"Hm..."

"Can't you drive with a single hand?" She asked.

Ye Jie gave her a pensive look and said, "I can."

Xu Mey pulled his hand from the steering wheel in her own and interlaced their fingers together saying, "Then drive with the single hand."

Ye Jie couldn't help but chuckle at her innocent mind. He ruffled her hair and said, "My queen's wish is my command." He even tapped his chest with his hand for a dramatic effect.

When the car roved again on the road, Xu Mey looked at their joined hands and felt so secure that she couldn't even describe the feeling herself.

The girl who was a firm believer of - 'believing that loving someone will make you feel happy is a lie. A huge big fat lie.(**)' suddenly had the feeling that 'I will conquer the whole world with one hand. As long as you're holding the other.(***)'

She smiled to herself and gazed at Ye Jie with an extremely loving gaze.
