Mr. CEO Loves The Devilish Beauty

"Ah-Jie, what are you doing?" When Xu Mey came back home she saw Ye Jie pacing back and forth in the living room. He seemed to be so immersed in his thoughts that he didn’t even notice Xu Mey’s presence at all.

"Oh... Hey, baby! When did you get back?" Ye Jie asked trying his best to smile but couldn’t seem to do so very convincingly.

"Why are you so... red?" Xu Mey instantly came up to him and placed the back of her hand against his forehead to take his temperature. "Ah! You’re hot." She moved her hand away as if it was burned.

"You don’t have to compliment me all the time." Xu Mey frowned at his reply as he grabbed her waist and said, "I know I’m hot."

Xu Mey rolled her eyes at him and slapped his chest. "Ah-Jie, I meant it literally. You’re burning up. Let’s go to the hospital."

Xu Mey tried to pull him but he didn’t move an inch making Xu Mey groan. "Baby, I’m fine. I’ll take some meds and it’ll get better. Don’t worry too much." Xu Mey wasn’t convinced at all. Ye Jie stroked her hair lovingly and changed the topic of discussion. "So, why did your grandfather call you?"

"Oh, that!" Xu Mey grinned widely and went on, "Grandfather is appointing me as the CEO of the Xu Corporation." Ye Jie wasn’t surprised, he only smiled seeing her happy face. "Also, did you know that I’m the biggest duffer who didn’t even know that she is the biggest shareholder of Xu Corporation."

And just like that Xu Mey kept chattering all about her day as she was snuggled up in his arms. Ye Jie, on the other hand, didn’t mind at all. He loved hearing her non-stop chatter. Her voice was making him smile without any reason at all.

During the dinner, taking advantage of her silence, Ye Jie asked, "Are you happy with your grandfather’s arrangement?"

"Mm... Yup! I’m very happy actually. It’s almost like I finally achieved what I had been working for." Hearing those words from her, Ye Jie naturally felt at ease and didn’t say anything else.

After the dinner, Xu Mey checked his fever and gave him some meds since he didn’t want to go to a hospital for just a minor fever.

The next morning, when Xu Mey woke up, she realized that Ye Jie was shivering. She immediately checked his temperature and realized that he had a high fever.

"Ah-Jie! Ah-Jie!" Xu Mey tried to wake him up but Ye Jie wasn’t responding. "I don’t even know what to do!" She was mumbling anxiously and decided to take him to the hospital some way.

She called the housemaid and with her help, she managed to take Ye Jie to the hospital. After the doctors checked him up, she asked, "Is he alright? Why is the fever so high? I gave him the meds last night but it didn’t work at all."

"Relax! Miss. He seems to be under some stress and his body is quite tired as well. Proper diet and rest will make him fit in no time. You don’t worry." The doctor consoled Xu Mey and left her alone with Ye Jie.

Ye Jie stayed unconscious till nightfall and when he woke up, he saw Xu Mey holding his hand as she sat by the bedside. "Hey!" He called out in his hoarse voice.

"Ah-Jie!" Xu Mey shot up from her seat and hugged him. "You fool! You scared the hell out of me. I told you last night to come to the hospital with me. But no... You don’t listen. You never listen to me. I am the idiot who’s been worrying for no reason." Xu Mey kept complaining and Ye Jie kept listening obediently.

He never thought that being scolded felt this good. He was smiling to himself when Xu Mey’s anger went up a notch. "What’s so funny? Your condition or me? Oh, it must be me, right? After all, you have a clown like wife. Perhaps that’s why you don’t ever listen to me." She huffed and turned her face away from him.

Seeing her arms crossed over her chest and her cute cheeks puffed up with anger. Ye Jie surely was amused.

"Aiyo! Baby, if I won’t listen to you then who else will I listen to? And this is only a minor thing. Why are you worrying so much?" Ye Jie tried to coax her a bit.

"Ah-Jie, this is no small thing-" Before she could continue her lecture. The doctor came to check up on Ye Jie’s condition.

"You’re recovering well." The doctor remarked after looking at his stats.

"Can I leave the hospital?" Ye Jie asked ignoring Xu Mey’s glare.

"Yes... Just take your medicine on time and everything will be fine. Also, rest is the most important here." The doctor gave some other bits of advice before leaving.

"Let’s go. I don’t fancy hospitals very much." Ye Jie said getting ready to leave the hospital. Xu Mey didn’t agree with his decision but Ye Jie was also adamant. "Baby, you can nag me. You can tie me up to bed. But please, let’s leave the hospital. Eh?"

Xu Mey scowled a bit but in the end, gave in to his decision. "Fine," she grumbled and did all the discharge work.

While she was driving, her phone rang. "Ah-Jie, read out the message."

Ye Jie picked her phone and checked the messages. He raised his brows as he saw that the sender’s name was, Uncle Chen.

He looked at Xu Mey and clicked on the message. He started reading it out, "Xiao Mey, where are you? Have you forgotten? You were supposed to bring the anniversary gift to me today. I’ve been calling you all day. Please, hurry! Only 2 hours are left before midnight."

Xu Mey instinctively stepped on the break and cursed out loud, "Sh*t! I totally forgot about that." She looked at Ye Jie and said, "Let’s go to deliver the gift first. I’ll be late if we went home first."

Ye Jie was in a daze but he still managed to nod his head. ’I guess the fate is really pushing me to the people, I’m trying to run away from.’
