Mr. CEO Loves The Devilish Beauty

-President’s Office, Vintage Gems-

"Did you delivered the parcel?" Xu Mey asked Qin Hao who stood before her with his head buried in the tablet computer in his hands. She had meticulously prepared the security footage along with the note for grandmother Jun because Xu Mey knew only she’d be able to persist on the fact that Jun Li Na should get a divorce.

"I delivered the parcel exactly as you asked me to," he answered without looking up at her. He didn’t even dare to check the security footage when he was collecting it. It’d be safe to say that poor Qin Hao was traumatized for life by his own boss.

Xu Mey observed his weird behavior and knitted her brows. "Why are you avoiding me?" She knew that he was a simple kind of a person but his behavior got weirder.

"I’m not," his voice came out as a squeak. Feeling the intensity of her gaze increasing, Qin Hao sighed. "Can I ask you something, President Xu?"

Xu Mey raised her brows inquiringly, laced her fingers together to support her chin saying, "Please, do ask!"

"Um... Erm..." Qin Hao took a while before anything coherent could come out of his mouth. "About that video... you showed me earlier..."

"What about it?" Xu Mey urged him to speak up.

Qin Hao cleared his throat. "Why did you punish that guy? I mean... what did he do?"

Xu Mey’s eyes stared at Qin Hao and under her scrutinizing gaze, he was sweating profusely. Xu Mey reclined back in her chair and swiveled it to look out the glass wall. "He dared to insult a girl... Not just physically but also, emotionally. He made her feel like her feelings were nothing more than just a joke." Qin Hao could hear the strong sense of resentment in her voice.

He gulped the lump stuck in his throat with difficulty before mumbling to himself, "I should remember not to hurt a girl. Who knows when a devil like her is watching." He gave Xu Mey an odd look before thinking, ’Karma sure is a b*tch!’ One thing was clear, for Qin Hao, Xu Mey was akin to karma at the moment.

Hearing her phone’s ringtone, Xu Mey waved Qin Hao off and picked up the call. "Hey, Mey!" Fu Shuang voice rang out from the other end in a breezy manner.

"What do you got?" Xu Mey spoke blandly.

"Can you be any more dulcet?" Fu Shuang questioned sarcastically. Xu Mey rolled her eyes at him but obviously, he couldn’t see it as he went on vivaciously, "Coming back to the business... It’s a mission accomplished!"

"Really? ’Mission Accomplished’? Can you be cornier than this?" Hearing Xu Mey’s taunting, Fu Shuang had the urge to remind her that this was her favorite phrase.

"Whatever!" Fu Shuang grumbled and hung up the call since he didn’t want to argue with her at this time. He didn’t want to spoil this newly found common ground of theirs.

Xu Mey laughed to herself and dialed Ye Jun’s number. After a couple of rings he picked up, "How’s she?" Xu Mey inquired a bit mildly.

Ye Jun raked his fingers through his hair and looked at Jun Li Na’s sleeping figure on the bed. "I’m not sure. But I know she’ll be okay, soon." He sighed at the other end.

Xu Mey nodded her head and said, "Jun, are you really serious about her?"

Ye Jun’s forehead furrowed at the sudden question. "Do you still have a doubt, sis?"

"No... I just want to hear you say it once. Can you really heal her broken parts? Because let me warn you, it won’t be easy at this point. She’s mentally, physically, and emotionally broken. It’s a huge challenge and if you can’t take up this challenge then take your steps back now." Although her voice was gentle, Ye Jun knew that the meaning behind those words was anything but gentle.

"Sis, if even you won’t believe that I’m serious about her then who else will? I know it’s not easy for me. But so what? I’ve wasted my years on useless things, now I have the chance to make her mine and I won’t back off. I don’t want her to love me back as one of my friends’ once told me that if I loved someone and expected the same thing in return, I’ll be the only one losing." The conviction in his voice relaxed Xu Mey as she smiled to herself.

"Now, you better remember that I won’t give you a way to back off from this path." Xu Mey warned him.

Ye Jun chuckled saying, "Sis, I don’t have any desire to back off anymore. The only reason I had was her fiance and now, he’s can’t be between us."

"Take care of her and yourself!" Xu Mey disconnected the call and contemplated his words in her mind. ’You really hid your mature side well, Jun.’ She thought to herself.

In the meantime, when Ye Jun turned around he saw Jun Li Na wide awake staring at him. Ye Jun smiled sheepishly at her asking, "How much did you hear?"

"All of it," she replied blankly. Ye Jun scratched the tip of his nose and opened his mouth to say something but she didn’t give him a chance. "I heard all my life that love, at first sight, is just an illusion. How can you be serious about this illusion?"

Ye Jun walked to her side, sat down on the carpet floor and held her hands in his own. "Let me tell you a story of love at first sight." Jun Li Na attentively looked at him. "I had a friend who fell in love at first sight with a guy. Do you know why?" She furrowed her brows and shook her head. "Because she found her home in his eyes."

He stared into her eyes as he continued, "She’s the person who taught me that love doesn’t need time to grow. In fact, we grow with love and time... Time just loses its value before love." He drew circles at the back of her hand with his thumbs. "So, I believe that when I first saw you at the nightclub, I lost myself only to be caged by your love. I won’t let time be the reason for you to reject me and that I know for sure!"

Jun Li Na felt so overwhelmed with emotions that tears swam in her eyes. She bit her lip trying to fight back the tears but his sincere gaze and warm hands made her forget everything. For a moment she forgot everything that transpired the previous night. She was left staring into Ye Jun’s eyes through her tear-filled ones.
