Chapter 8 - More Like Lust Bite (1/2)

Over the next weekend, Xu Mey sneaked out of her Xu Residence late at night. She came to a private room in the illusion nightclub where her friends had already been waiting for her. She settled herself beside Li Qiao as he passed her a displeased look.

"Your future husband's been involved in a deep relationship for 8 years," Li Qiao stated while looking at her with a grave look. "You really want to be a wife of someone whose heart has another girl in it?"

"Qiao, you're talking like he's cheating on me," She replied languidly before taking wolfberry to eat.

"Isn't this also cheating?" Li Qiao was glowering at this point. He never wanted his best friend to have a fake relationship. He believed that one day she'll love someone but he was scared of her love as well. He knew she had a habit of doing everything to an extreme and if she loved to the point of going crazy one day, he won't be surprised at all.

The door to the private room opened and in walked Wu Wang with a radiant smile and disheveled hair. His clothes had creases giving away what he'd been doing. "Oh, here's my pretty girl," He came to Xu Mey for a hug but she paced backward to hide behind He Jian making Wu Wang pout like a baby.

"You have a," She pointed at his neck but couldn't speak out.

Easing her stress, Lin Shen commented, "She's trying to say that you have a hickey at the side of your neck."

Wu Wang saw the hickey through his phone's camera and replied, "It's called love bite you ignorant people."

"Minus the love part," He Jian added with a pleased expression.

Xu Mey snorted at his reply and said, "More like lust bite, Wang boy." Her words made all of them burst out laughing. She passed him a wary smile and sat back down.

"Always expect my best friend to say the joke of the day," Wu Wang lamented and sat with Lin Shin.

All of them were busy in their usual banter when a knock was heard on the door and a head poked in. Looking at the face, Xu Mey's smile turned into a dark expression. Her assistant shivered under her scrutinizing gaze and passed a tablet to him before literally running out of the room.

Her expression was grave as she looked through the report in her hand. The rest of them came around and glanced at what was she reading. It was a detailed report on Ye Jie's life, including the kind of brands of clothes he used. The only black spot on his flawless attributes was his last relationship. He was known as a cold and aloof CEO but he valued his family the most.
