The man was wearing a black leather jacket and his hair was cut short. He had a neat and cold appearance, and the side of his face was well-defined.
Perhaps hearing the sound of the door opening, the man turned to look at Long Mei.
Under his long eyebrows were a pair of almond-shaped eyes filled with charm, a tall and firm nose bridge, and well-defined sexy thin lips… He was still as handsome as before, and there was a playful and cold aura on him. This was also what had attracted her the most in the past.
Their eyes met for a few seconds.
The man stubbed out the cigarette between his fingers and strode toward Long Mei.
Long Mei put the wine in her hand on the coffee table.
Long Mei was completely disappointed with Ximen Jin. Even though he had no choice, some injuries could never be healed.
She had slowly walked out of the immense pain and hurt.
When she saw him again, there would be no more ripples in her heart.
“Mei’er.” Seeing the coldness in Long Mei’s eyes, Ximen Jin’s voice was slightly hoarse.
A faint smile appeared on Long Mei’s lips. “Mr Ximen, I’ve already sent the wine over. Do you have any other requests?”
Hearing her cold and unfamiliar tone, Ximen Jin’s heart seemed to be hit, and a trace of pain spread across his heart.
Ximen Jin looked at Long Mei’s eyes and his expression darkened. “Mei’er, have a drink with me.”
Long Mei laughed coldly. “Sorry, I’m not a hostess.”
Long Mei turned around, wanting to leave.
However, she had just taken a step when her wrist was grabbed by Ximen Jin.
Before Long Mei could break free, Ximen Jin hugged her from behind.
Ximen Jin buried his face into Long Mei’s slender neck, his hands around her waist tightening as he greedily took in the fragrance of her neck. His low and hoarse voice seemed to come from the depths of his throat. “Mei’er, can you give me another chance?”
He really loved her but he knew that she would never forgive him again.
During this period, he had taken over the Ximen family’s matters and was extremely busy. He thought that he could reduce the number of times he thought of her.
But once he stopped working, his mind was filled with her.
“Mei’er, I’m sorry.”
Long Mei looked down and pulled the man’s hands away from her waist.
Turning around, she looked at the man coldly. “Don’t blame me for being rude if you touch me again.”
Long Mei opened the door and left quickly.
The bodyguards outside stopped Long Mei.
Long Mei took out her phone and planned to call someone over.
Ximen Jin walked out and glanced at the bodyguards blocking Xiao Ying. “Damn it, who asked you to stop her!”
Once Ximen Jin spoke, the bodyguards all moved away and Long Mei left without looking back.
…
The next day.
Devin planned to leave the island in the afternoon and met Long Mei for lunch.
Long Mei planned to call Xiao Ying and Long Ming together, but when she called them, they were still sleeping in the hotel.
Long Mei had no choice but to eat alone with Devin.
On their way to the restaurant, Long Mei found that someone was following them. Sure enough, when she turned around, she saw several black sedans following their car at a distance.
Long Mei knew who it was without getting out of the car.
Devin also saw the black cars behind. “Mei’er, do you know him?”
Long Mei did not want to hide it. “That scumbag.”
Devin frowned. “I’ll get out and meet him.”
“Devin, don’t get involved in our matters.”
Hearing Long Mei’s words, Devin felt suffocated.
Perhaps, even she herself had not realized that she had not really forgotten about that man!
They got out of the car and entered the restaurant.
The man in the black car also got out of the car. He walked into the restaurant and sat down so that Long Mei could see his seat if she looked up.
Long Mei was a little annoyed, but she could not chase him away. After all, she did not own this restaurant.
During the meal, Long Mei tried not to look up.
However, that man kept staring at her. Although she did not look at him, she could not ignore his gaze.
Long Mei lost her appetite during the meal.
After paying the bill, Long Mei went to the washroom.
Devin walked to Ximen Jin’s table and frowned slightly. “Sir, Mei’er doesn’t want to see you. Please don’t disturb her in the future.”
When Ximen Jin heard Devin’s words, he leaned back against the chair, a trace of cold contempt appearing on his arrogant eyes. He looked wild and arrogant. “Who are you to demand that of me?”
Devin pursed his lips. “I’m pursuing Mei’er.”
The man scoffed. “In other words, you haven’t won her heart.”
“I don’t know if I’ll be able to win her over. But you’ve hurt Mei’er deeply. You will never be able to woo her again in this lifetime.”
A trace of ruthlessness appeared in Ximen Jin’s eyes. “Scram, or don’t blame me for being rude.”
“You have to promise me that you won’t disturb Mei’er anymore!”
Ximen Jin stood up from the chair and grabbed Devin’s collar with his slender hands. His expression darkened. “It’s not up to you to decide what goes on between her and me.”
Devil was strong-willed. He struggled to break away from Ximen Jin’s hand. “I won’t let Mei’er get hurt again. If you dare to disturb her again, I won’t be polite…”
Ximen Jin laughed scornfully. “What are you going to do?”
Devin suddenly punched Ximen Jin.
Ximen Jin had not expected Devin to suddenly attack him. After taking a punch, Ximen Jin kicked him in the abdomen.
Devin was kicked a few meters away and his body hit the dining table. He fell to the ground and rolled a few times.
“Ximen Jin, what are you doing?” Long Mei, who had come out of the washroom, saw that Devin had been kicked by Ximen Jin and an inextinguishable anger surged in her heart.
He actually dared to attack her friend? Did he think that he could be lawless now that he was the young master of the Ximen family?
Long Mei glared at Ximen Jin with red eyes. She picked up the bag in her hand and threw it at him with all of her strength, as if she wanted to vent all of her resentment and anger on him.
Ximen Jin’s face was scratched by the zipper of her bag, but he did not move and he stood there like a statue. After Long Mei hit him until she had no strength, he said with an ashen face, “Have you fallen for him? Will you not forgive me even if I die in front of you?”
Long Mei looked at the redness in Ximen Jin’s eyes and her lips trembled slightly. “Yes, I don’t like you anymore. Even if you die, I won’t take another look at you!”
Ximen Jin’s clenched fists slowly loosened. All of his strength seemed to have been sucked away by a huge syringe. He closed his eyes, turned around slowly, and left with heavy steps.
Long Mei also turned around and walked toward Devin.
When she crouched in front of Devin, she heard the man’s low and hoarse voice. “Long Mei, don’t worry. I won’t cause you any more trouble!”
