Chapter 6 - Ism Gonna Use You (1/2)
Xu Mey followed Ye Jie to a Presidential Suite on the 25th floor of the Star Night Hotel. The moment she entered the room behind him, she closed the door with a thud halting Ye Jie. She locked the door securely before she turned around to face Ye Jie with a scowl etched on her face.
"Why is it you?" How she managed to use her calm and gentle voice in this situation was out of his knowledge. Since her guise was anything but serene.
"Huh?" He gave her a questioning look.
"I can't believe my so-called father is actually giving me a second-hand product. I really didn't expect him to disregard me this much," She was walking in circles in her frustration without noticing that she was saying her thoughts out loud.
When Ye Jie heard the word 'second-hand product' he was dumbfounded. He couldn't believe that someone actually dared to call him that. He was still known as the most eligible bachelor and now someone was calling him a used product.
"Ms. Cherry, I'm not a second-hand product you know," Ye Jie gnashed his teeth, he was seething with rage but he could only restraint himself for the moment.
Xu Mey stopped her walking parade and stood before him raising her head to look straight at him. "Are you trying to tell me that you didn't have a girlfriend?" She challenged him with her chin pointing at him.
She was about a head shorter than him but she still felt really short in front of him. 'He's just abnormally tall.' She inwardly calmed her inferior complex about height. Even though she was taller than most girls but she still didn't like seeing boys who were taller than her.
"Yes, I had a girlfriend but that doesn't make me a used product," He defied her with a confident look on his face.
"Says the guy who got himself drunk to the point of collapsing just for the sake of one girl," Xu Mey retorted sarcastically making him close his eyes and bit his lower lip.
"That's not related to this conversation," He replied after thinking for a while.
"Of course, it is. The person who had that much control over your life that her absence made you lose yourself, that person would definitely won't be a fling."
Hearing her reply, Ye Jie didn't know what else to say. He didn't have the answer to her question. She was right, he did give Lu Yuhan a lot of rights in his life and in his heart. Randomly a thought crossed his mind. "Why did you agree to this arranged marriage?"
"Because my family asked me to," She replied but her words couldn't even assure herself much less the keen person before her.
