Chapter 97 - Love Rival?
"Mr. Ye, we’ve arrived." Qi Guan informed them from the front seat and disembarked to open the door for Ye Jie.
"Take care of yourself then," Xu Mey said in a low voice.
"Aren’t you coming out of the car?" He looked at her questioningly.
"I don’t like goodbyes." She replied.
Ye Jie got back in the car, closed the door and pulled her in his arms. He kissed her hair, her forehead but didn’t feel satisfied. He lowered his head and just inches away from her lips, he stopped. She could feel his spearmint hot breath tingling her skin and making her heart go into a frenzy.
"May I?" She heard his husky voice as she was lost in his brown charming eyes. The way he looked seemed to pull at her heartstrings. She unconsciously nodded her head slowly giving him the permission, he needed.
Without any restraint, he further lowered his head and let his own lips touch her cherry ones. Instead of just grazing his lips with hers, He took her bottom lip in between his own lips. He slowly sucked on her bottom lip. Xu Mey had closed her eyes on reflex. He lightly nibbled on her bottom lip as his hand went around her waist and holding her even closer to himself while the other hand secured her neck.
And when Xu Mey responded to his kiss, he felt completely losing control. His hunger was turned insatiable, it was a desperate hunger for her which he couldn’t control.
The kiss couldn’t last long because he had to catch the flight but it still left Xu Mey reeling. Seeing her dazed state gasping for air, Ye Jie chuckled and left a fleeting kiss on her lips again before getting out of the car.
"Drive my wife back safely." He instructed Qi Guan before he made his way towards the VIP section.
Xu Mey touched her lips which were still tingling from the kiss as her face felt hot. She was embarrassed. Embarrass because he always left her vulnerable. She hid her face inside her hands and shook it vigorously.
She heard the car’s door opening and coughed a bit before straightening up her crumpled state. Qi Guan climbed in and asked, "Shall we leave, Missus?"
"Yes... Sure let’s go back." She answered awkwardly.
After Qi Guan dropped her at the Peach Estates, Xu Mey didn’t enter the house. Instead, she went straight to the garage to get her motorbike.
She drove straight to Feng Golfing Club. It was a popular membership base golfing club and obviously, a person like Xu Mey who had no interest in golfing didn’t have the membership. But that doesn’t mean she didn’t have other ways to enter.
After just a single call from He Jian’s father, Xu Mey was served like royalty.
She briskly walked on the lush green ground towards a group of males and females happily enjoying a golf game.
"Master Shuang is still the best!" One of the female companions said loudly after the tall man in white made a shot.
"Master Shuang is National level champion. Obviously, he’ll be the best." Another one praised him.
The tall man was basking in all the praises with a radiant smile on his finely carved face. He felt a touch on his shoulder making him turn his head and before he could see the person, a crisp slap landed on his face. *Pow*
There were audible gasps around them but Xu Mey ignored it all. Master Shuang held his jaw and rubbed it slowly as he tasted his own blood. Without looking up, he said, "Now President Xu, you really need to tell me why I’m being assaulted?"
He straightened up and looked at her furious face. Xu Mey rummaged out the bracelet and threw it at him which he caught with ease. "Oh, it’s the gift I sent you. Did you like it?" He looked at her with bright eyes. Seeing her furious gaze, he stepped back. "You didn’t like it?" He made a dejected face. "I made this with my own hands for your birthday."
"Do you know when my birthday is, Master Shuang?" She asked while tapping her feet impatiently on the ground.
"No..." He said. "But I always celebrated your birthday on the day we first met." He was lost in memory lane.
"Then from now on, celebrate that day as my wedding anniversary." As her words entered his ears, he abruptly looked at her face in disbelief.
"You’re messing with me, right?" He asked nervously.
"I’m so not..." Xu Mey said with a straight face.
He gripped her arms and asked, "You said you’ll not marry anyone. Then what does he have that I don’t?" He kept staring into her indifferent eyes. "I left for 3 months and you’re telling me that my whole world is lost?"
"Master Shuang! Let me go," She squirmed in his grip. Seeing the discomfort on her face, he loosened her grip.
"President Xu, at the very least, tell me why do you hate me from the moment we first met?" He asked with a grievance. "You can slap me again if you want. Just give me an answer."
Xu Mey gave another slap on his face making everyone gasp again in disbelief. Master Shuang chuckled lightly. "You really are not a humble person."
Xu Mey turned around, took a few steps, stopped and said, "One day, I’ll let you know what’s the reason of animosity between you and me, Mr. Fu Shuang." With that, she left the golfing ground.
