Chapter 174 - Jie Darling? (1/2)
Back at the illusion nightclub, He Jian had a lot to discuss with Azalea while Li Qiao was busy with his cell phone. On the side, Wu Wang was talking with Lin Shen. In a secluded corner, Xu Mey kept to herself. Unknowingly, she drank a lot more than her usual capacity.
She was feeling down. She never got over the fact that her Sensei didn't love her the way she did. She never could even become a friend to her Sensei no matter how much she wanted to.
For her Sensei, she still was just a disciple. Why she was thinking about this after years was because of Ye Jie.
From the moment she saw him talking to his best friend, she realized that even though they both didn't meet daily, there was still a bond that she couldn't even imagine to challenge.
Unlike her own best friends, she felt that Ye Jie's best friend was someone who didn't try to make his life brighter. Instead, his best friend tried to make his life better.
"We should leave now," Xu Mey didn't know who said it but she readily agreed and got up from the couch. She was the one who slid open the door of the room and came face to face with Ye Jie.
For a moment, Xu Mey was in a shock. She felt like dreaming. She took a step closer, trying to touch Ye Jie's face. And when her soft fingertips brushed against his handsome face, she believed, that she was definitely not dreaming.
Knowing that Ye Jie was really standing before her, her downcasted face blossomed like a pink rain lily bloom after a pouring rain. She stretched open her arms widely with a toothy grin, she said, "Jie darling! Give your baby a hug."
The endearment in that single 'Jie darling' not only stunned Ye Jie, he completely went into a shock mode. His feet rooted to the ground, he kept staring at her slightly reddish face.
Seeing how Ye Jie didn't move at all, Xu Mey pouted and muttered, "Jie darling doesn't want to hug his baby."
Her soft voice brought him back to the world and he looked at Xu Mey's lips pulled out a bit in an adorable pout. He took a step towards her and said, "Jie darling would be the biggest idiot if he didn't want to hug his baby."
Xu Mey lifted her head and looked into his brown charming eyes saying, "My Jie darling is not an idiot!"
Ye Jie smiled at her expression and pulled her from her waist in his arms. Xu Mey spontaneously wrapped her arms around his neck and buried her face in his neck. As her hot breath brushed at his neck, Ye Jie took a sharp breath.
"Apparently, Xiao Mey's PDA is worse than our Lin Shen." Wu Wang remarked looking at the pair of love birds embracing each other completely oblivious to the people around them.
"Are you jealous, Wang-Ge?" Azalea whispered beside him.
Wu Wang snorted. "Why would I be?" He gave a haughty expression. "I don't like PDA's. They are overrated."
"Well, since you don't have anyone beside you. That's the only thing, you can say." Azalea pointed out.
Wu Wang glared at her. "Should we interfere?" Li Qiao asked.
"I don't think we should. Since Ye Jie is here, he'll take Xiao Mey home." Lin Shen voiced out. Everyone agreed with his suggestion.
"Take me as well. I don't want to be the third wheel here." Azalea said looking at the way her own brother didn't even notice her presence. But it didn't upset her. Instead, she felt immensely glad that Xu Mey had the power to make Ye Jie forget the rest of the world.
"Who do you wanna go with?" He Jian asked her.
Azalea looked at the four of them pondering. Going with He Jian was a big no-no while she wasn't closely acquainted with Li Qiao and Lin Shen. Therefore, she chose to go with Wu Wang.
All of them passed a last look towards Ye Jie and Xu Mey before leaving them alone.
Oblivious to the fact that all her friends were gone, Xu Mey lost herself in Ye Jie's embrace completely forgetting whatever was running through her mind.
She only pulled away when she felt an impulse to mold his lips with her own. Under the dim lights, his face was really close to her just staring back at her. Ye Jie could smell the scent of alcohol on her but it didn't disturb him even for a second.
Ye Jie was simply looking at her face seeing the delight in her eyes and those slightly parted lips. Her gaze was intense as it lowered down slowly to his thin lips. Ye Jie felt the intensity as her tongue came out of her mouth slightly to lick her dry lips in slow motion. His heart started beating faster.
Ye Jie couldn't hold himself from following the movements of her tongue. Xu Mey felt a surge of warmth spread throughout her body making her go limp. Ye Jie was anticipating her next move while Xu Mey was luring him in towards herself with her eyes.
