Chapter 42 - Life Is A Game, Only Destiny Knows How To Play It (1/2)
Some words are bitter. Some words are sweet. Some words are powerful yet some words are weak.
But...
Some words are just simple. Yet those simple words are the heaviest. They carry the burden of feelings. Heartfelt feelings. Unpretentious feelings. Pure feelings.
Therefore, in reality, words are not simple. They can't be. As long as feelings are involved. No words are ordinary.
Currently, Ye Jie was lost in his reverie. Xu Mey's subtle yet radiant smile under the rays of the sun was the only thing circulating in his mind making a silly smile appear on his handsome face.
The constantly ringing phone by his side was entirely neglected.
But our second young master was a persistent person. He kept calling repeatedly until the annoying ringtone broke Ye Jie's daydreaming and made the smile to turn into a scowl. "What do you want, Jun?"
Ye Jun could feel the burning heat through the phone as if Ye Jie would love to burn him alive just with his words alone. 'Wrong timing?' He thought to himself. 'Who cares? I already walked into the tiger's den. Now, I can only walk ahead. There is no way back.' Ye Jun was resolute.
"Bro, I'm sick and still you're yelling at me? That's not fair." His voice was heartbreaking but his drama had no effect on Ye Jie.
"Get down to the business." Ye Jie enunciated each word slowly.
"Bro, I'm feeling hungry. Bring me something to eat." He demanded in a childlike tone.
"Ask NaNa to make you something." He replied in a bored way. He specifically left Qu NaNa at home with instructions just for Ye Jun.
"She's not here." Ye Jun replied calmly.
"Why? I asked her to stay with you. How can she leave like this?" Ye Jie was frowning at his brother's answer. It was not possible that the maid won't listen to him.
"I asked her to leave." Ye Jun replied in a matter-of-fact tone.
"Why?" Ye Jie was gnashing his teeth at this point.
"She was annoying me time after time. Second Young Master, are you feeling pain anywhere? Should I call the doctor? Should I inform Madam Ye? Or should I call Eldest young master? Would you like to eat something? Tell me what you want and I'll make it for you. And blah... blah... blah... I got tired of her hence I made her go away."
Ye Jie understood the situation instantly. Ye Jun turned into a child whenever he was sick. Well, he was usually a big baby but during his sickness period, he was worse. And he hated it when someone repeatedly asked him something. He was easily irritable.
