CHAPTER 334

"All good." He kept quiet again, taking his time to study her. "But you on the other hand, anything bothering you? You seem to be... I don’t know. I can tell you have a lot on your mind as of now. Tell me the truth."

He knew her very well to know when she had something on her mind. It wasn’t that Li Jing couldn’t tell as well, it was just that he seemed to have gotten better at hiding his feelings from even her.

"Why?"

"Why what?" Ye Cheng questioned.

"You refuse to share but want me to." novelenglish.net . fire(.)nᴇt

"So you do admit that there is something on your mind?"

"Yes. Unlike you, I am truthful to myself and considering our past and how close we were, I chose not to hide it from you. What’s your excuse?"

"Nothing."

"You want to play that game, huh? Okay then."

"What game?" Ye Cheng pretended as though he did not understand what she was talking about.

"Forget about it. Anyways, I think this might be a good opportunity in informing you of a proposal to partner with your company in the future. Although we are still starting out here but I believe in time, we would get somewhere tangible."

"No worries. I know your capabilities and I trust you. Whenever you are ready, just come to me."

"Thanks."

"Oh my manners, please what can I offer you?"

She raised her palm a bit to stop him. "I am good. There would be no need for that," Li Jing stated.

"Alright. Good to have you back. I would not keep you further. I know you have other things to attend to."

"Yeah, sure."

Ding! Li Jing looked at her back and took out her phone. She knew that it was her grandfather. She had made a special ring and message tone for him so that she could always know when to pick his calls or not.

Immediately she unlocked her phone and checked on the message.

’Dearest granddaughter, please I do hope you would forgive grandfather for what he has done. I gave you time to think about the issue but you seem too busy to do that, so I went ahead to do it on my own. Your marriage with Kim Fan has been fixed. It is for the good of both families. Do have a lovely day and call me when you read this.’

GBAGHAN! BANG!

Li Jing’s ears and eyes felt so heavy with what she had just read. She had thought that she would be able to fix all she needed to fix given time. Now it looked like even that time was not on her side.

Her smile dropped after reading the message. She could no longer pretend that it was not affecting her. No, it was and a lot.

Ye Cheng saw the look of change in her expression and knew her problems had only worsened with the message she received.

Instantly that urge to want to protect her suddenly overwhelmed him and he betrayed his indifferent unconcerned heart and reached out to touch her left hand that was on the table.

Li Jing looked up and their eyes met. For a moment there, he knew she was about to cry. He could see the urgency in those pretty eyes of hers.Danger lurked.

So whatever it was that made her like this, was definitely important and worthy of his concern. After all, it was Li Jing he was talking about here.

"I’m sorry. I need to go. There is something that requires my immediate attention," Li Jing said, standing up.

Ye Cheng followed suit and stood up with her. "Li Jing. If there is any way I can help..."

"Thanks." She quickly cut in. "It was nice seeing you again. Some other time, okay?"

He could not say anything with the way she interrupted him and right before his eyes, he watched her leave his office.

As soon as the door closed...

"Aaarghhh! Damn it!" He combed his fingers through his hair before letting his hands hit the table. "She was right there, Ye Cheng. Why didn’t you just ask her? Why didn’t you ask her why she left you?"

He left his seat and went straight to the window. ’But how could I have asked her when she wasn’t looking so good? Li Jing, tell me, what is wrong with you? Even if you do not want me, at the very least, let me help you out.’

He shook his head and massaged his temples. The Li Jing he knew would not even allow him to. She would not want him to butt into the matter but how could he sit with himself, knowing that she wasn’t alright.

Suddenly, a thought came to his mind and he made his way to his table and picked up his phone. He looked at his phone first, then at where she just sat down.

His mind went back to when she brought out her phone from her bag. It was not like she did not have the money but she still kept on using the phone he bought for her even after months of not being together,

That singular thought that he may still matter to her, be it as friends, warmed his heart and it showed through his smile.

’I would help take away your pains, then I would leave you to your happiness with him.’

With that set in place, he unlocked the phone and placed a call to someone.

"Yes, it is I. I need you to help me look into the affairs of Li Jing for the past one month and get all the problems she has encountered and report back to me as soon as possible."

"Yes sir."

"Good. Send all the necessary details to my email."

"Got it, sir."

Beep!

’You have grown and learned a lot but not up to the point of hiding your pain and feelings from me. I promise I would make it right and fix your pain.’ Ye Cheng thought inwardly.
