Chapter 181 - Words Oftentimes Kill A Person (2/2)
She held his wrist and said, "I took her to the club last night and I haven't seen her after that. How can I be so irresponsible?!"
"Oh my gosh! You forgot my sister at the club?" Ye Jie pretended to be shocked while trying hard to stifle his laugh.
"I didn't do it on purpose. I drank and then I really forgot about her." Seeing Xu Mey's aggrieved look, Ye Jie couldn't mess with her any further.
"Baby, calm down! Zelie is with Ye Jun and Wu Wang."
"Really?"
"Yes... Really." Ye Jie assured her making her heave a sigh of relief.
After they packed up everything and got to the car, Xu Mey took Ye Jie's hand in hers again. On the road, she questioned Ye Jie, "Ah-Jie, let's suppose that one day you completely forgot about me. What will you do then?"
Ye Jie arched his brows at her and retorted, "First of all, why would I forget you? I don't plan on doing that at all. So, thinking about what I'll do is completely useless."
"Ah-Jie, I asked you to just suppose that," she argued.
"Baby, I don't want to even suppose that ridiculous scenario. I can never forget you at all." He argued pack.
Xu Mey frowned and added, "But you forgot your ex. So, it's very possible to forget me as well."
Ye Jie immediately stopped the car at the side and looked straight at Xu Mey asking, "Are you going to leave me as she did?" Xu Mey was speechless as she thought about it. "Well, are you?" He urged her.
"No..." She shook her head with force. "Of course, I don't plan on doing that. Why would I?"
Ye Jie relaxed visibly and caressed her cheek saying, "If you're not going to leave your Ah-Jie then your Ah-Jie can't possibly even imagine forgetting his baby."
Xu Mey placed her hand over Ye Jie's on her cheek and said, "You really don't leave me with a way out. How am I going to argue with that?"
Ye Jie chuckled. "Do you have to argue?"
"Yes, I do!" She nodded her head like a rattle.
"Fine... Go on, argue all you want." He offered making her brighten up immediately.
"Okay, so about your family-" Ye Jie interrupted her.
"Baby, I told you not now." He was still on the same track of 'not now!'
Xu Mey rolled her eyes at him and palmed his face in her small hands saying, "I don't think there is anywhere left to run anymore. You need this, Ah-Jie."
He groaned and said, "Baby, even though you coming into my life gathered up all the pieces of my broken heart but there are still gaps and I'm scared that walking into those new relationships will actually make those gaps bigger."
"Aiyo, my stupid husband!" Xu Mey flicked the space between his brows and said, "Haven't you seen that sometimes ice needs to melt in order to make a withered rose florish again?" Ye Jie frowned at her. "Just like that ice that melts. You have me. Your baby is also broken which means our broken pieces can fit together and no gaps will be left... Ever!"
This was one of those moments when Ye Jie was left speechless by her sincerity and words. Since he didn't have words to explain his feelings, he pulled her in his arms and buried his face in her neck.
