CHAPTER 409
"Oh that, I am going to cancel."
"WHAT!"
Ying Rong's eyes widened in shock. He could not believe this Ye Cheng of a guy. How could he be saying this at a time like this?
"Ye Cheng!"
"What? Stop screaming my name like that."
"Why wouldn't I scream your name like that?" Ying Rong asked in anger.
"Because she is my wife and I can choose to do anything I want for her."
"Damn it Ye Cheng, you selfish brat. You could not let me see my sister in law just briefly today. How can you just keep her beauty to yourself and not let me admire her."
"You have the nerve to say those words to me, Rong, right?"
"Well, I did not say anything wrong you know."
"Now I really would not bring her over. I was thinking of still going ahead with the plan but nah ahhh… I just want to spend time with my wife at home. I would still place my order for your delicacies but your punishment, you wouldn't see her."
"Tsk, you really are one of a kind, Ye Cheng. Do not worry. Enjoy, she is your wife anyway. I cannot say anything but know this, I would get the finest girl in the world as mine."
"Good luck with that," Ying Rong.
"Thanks. Anyways you did not tell me what the occasion was that you are celebrating?"
"Do I need an occasion to spoil my wife silly?"
"No, not at all."
"Great. Now off you go. I need to still talk to my love and thank her for her gift."
"Ohh… My regards to her then." He had just finished his sentence when he ended the call before Ye Cheng actually told him no.
As far as he was concerned, Ye Cheng could not deny his request now that he did not get the chance to say anything to him.
"Bullseye."
Ye Cheng smiled when the call went dead. He knew how naughty his friend was and how much he needed someone to fall in love and tame him lest he goes about chasing ladies.
Not wasting time, he ignored his friend and went to search his call log fr the one person that matters to him the most.

On the other hand, Li Jing's eyes were still fixed on the person standing in front of her that she failed to say anything other than just staring at him.
"Hey."
Even though there was still some friendship between them, Li Jing was no longer happy seeing him. Reasons have been that he was very much aware of what her father was doing but rather than kick against it, he went fully for it.
She was so angry at him right now as his presence brought back something she had managed to keep behind her back.
"Kim Fan." For the second time, her lips parted that day and she called out his name. How superb was it? Not really.
There was no form of joy whatsoever when he called his name. Instead, her voice remained stiff and nothing seemed to have been changed.
"Li Jing, why aren't you happy to see me?"
"Give me one good reason why I should be" Li Jing fired back instantly.
"Hey calm down."
"I am calm." She rubbed her temples with her hand before looking at him straight into his eyes. How could you?"
"What did I do, Li Jing? The least you can do is having me in then you can ask me whatever question it is that you want to ask of me." Kim Fan suggested and although Li Jing did not like him, it was actually the most sensible thing to do rather than washing their problems outside.
"Fine, then." She turned around to see her dreamy looking assistant and snapped her fingers to bring her back from whatever trance it was that she disappeared to.
"Yes. Huh…" She fought back her startled-ness, trying to look professional as possible. "Yes, ma. Noted."
"You see yourself. I never said anything Wen Su. Simply just alert me when my other guests arrive. I would be in my office."
'Yes ma, sorry for my…"
"Let it go. Be more focused in the future," Li Jing corrected her and turned around. "Shall we?"
"Yes."
**
Just inside her office, Li Jing offered Kim Fan a sea but she herself wasn't seating. Rather she had her hands crossed in front of her chest as she awaited his explanation.
"Li Jing, this is not very professional. Please do have a seat."
"You want to teach me professionally and not when you came for an unprofessional visit?"
He let out a soft sigh and closed his eyes as he lowered his head a bit. He knew she was going to be mad at him, furious in fact but that was going to be by the wayside. Besides he had come for a different reason and ball game entirely.
"Li Jing at least for old time sake, please do have a seat let us talk."
"You can talk, I am listening. Do not expect me to go, yayy… Kim Fan is back," she said sarcastically. "Why are you here, Kim Fan?"
"Can't I visit my friend again?"
"Unannounced?" Li Jing quickly fired, not giving him any time to relax.
"Yes, it was meant to be what we call a surprise. I suppose you have heard of what that word is, am I right?"
Li Jing rolled her eyes at him. He really was pushing things that shouldn't and wouldn't be there.
"Okay, let's say I buy your idea of a surprise visit. Great, you have seen me, so now you can have your leave. I do not have time to talk or say anything to you."
"What did I do wrong Li Jing?"
"Oh, you are asking me? Please I wonder. How come I suddenly was to get engaged to you in my absence and you could not say anything?"
"Oh is that why you are angry? Believe me, Li Jing. I had nothing to do with that."
"And I should just believe you?"
