The Gorgeous Ex Girlfriend
/ The Gorgeous Ex Girlfriend Chapter 100
"She and I are good friends . In fact we work closely on the project here in Moganshan together," Wei replied, sticking close to the truth as much as possible .
"I don't know how was yours and my relation in the past, but let me warn you, henceforth, keep your hands off my girl . I do not like to see her touched by anyone except me," he nearly bit Wei's head off with his words .
Wei balled his fists, trying to control his reaction in face of Tang's blatant possessiveness .
"What are you doing here, Wei," Jia Li squinted at him through sleepy eyes .
All those raised voices had woken her up, as well . Rubbing her neck with one hand, she tried to tug her captive hand from under Tang's, but to no avail .
"I told you to come lay down next to me but you wouldn't listen . Serves you right to have woken up with a crick," Tang teased her .
Grimacing, she sat up and discovered the rolled up scarf from under her head . Recognising it to be Wei's, she smiled .
"Good, now that you are up, please return it to him . We don't want his expensive scarf marred by your drool, right?" Tang told her pointedly .
"Can you let go of my hand now? My arm has lost all its sensation," she complained .
He brought her palm to his lips and placed a moist kiss on the inner side of it before releasing it .
Colour flooded on Jia Li's cheeks at this intimate gesture and she couldn't meet Wei's eyes . He, on the other hand, was having trouble handling the over familiarity which Tang was displaying towards her .
Clearing his throat, he addressed her, "I actually came to discuss a couple of things with you about the project . Can you step out for a minute?"
"Is it a matter of national security that you can't hold the conversation in front of me?" Tang asked him sarcastically .
"I don't want to impede your recovery by having what maybe a heated discussion, here . The conversation may prevent you from going back to sleep," Wei strived to maintain a neutral tone .
"With my girl engaged in a conversation with another man, I don't think that I would get sleep anytime soon," Tang replied with a caveman attitude .
"Stop spouting nonsense, Tang . You may not remember it but Wei and you have been working together for many years . He is a wonderful person and a fantastic co-worker . Don't say something unnecessarily rude now because you will regret it later," she scolded him .
"To me, nothing and no one is more important than you . I have nothing against him except resentment because of the over familiarity which he displayed towards you, moments ago," he said bluntly .
Embarrassed at his words, she glared at him .
"Her neck looked to be in a painful position when I entered the room . All I did was help her a little . Maybe you didn't think of it when you pulled her hand into yours, selfishly," Wei was on the verge of losing his cool now .
Jia Li looked from one man to the other .
"What is wrong with both of you? Tang, can you stop being an a** . Wei, even if he is behaving immaturely, you surely can do better," she spoke to both of them sternly .
While Tang sulked at her words, Wei gave her an embarrassed smile .
She extended her hand which held the scarf towards him . Reluctantly, he took it back .
"What did you want to talk about?" she asked him .
"I…uh, that, never mind, we shall speak about it later . I have to go back to Shanghai now . There are few issues which need my immediate attention at office . I will be in touch . Make sure to pick up my call," he said the last line with emphasis .
She nodded at him in understanding, making the peace sign with her hand .
"Have a safe trip back . I promise to stay in touch," she smiled in farewell .
Wei nodded at Tang before stepping out of the room . The minute he left, Jia Li launched at Tang .
"What is wrong with you? You were behaving so childishly . I do not remember you being like this ever," she said .
"That is probably because I have never felt insecure about your affection for me before . Right now, I can't recall anything of the last six years . I don't know how was our relation . I can't remember our last hug, our last intimate moment, our last fight . And I am not going to sit around and wait for my memory to return . I want to start creating new memories right now, like this fight we are currently having or the feel of your tiny hand next to my heart," he said huskily .
