Chapter 245 - The Parting Gift (1/2)
Xu Mey woke up quite late in the morning. She rubbed her eyes and the events of last night played before her eyes one-by-one. While she was gathering her thoughts, the bedroom door was pushed open and Ye Jie walked in with a small table full of food.
"Finally, you're up! I thought you were planning on sleeping for the whole day." He said flippantly with a beautiful smile on his face.
Xu Mey kept staring at him for a while as her mind was thinking of many things. But she only had one question to ask. "How long have you known my sensei?"
Hearing her groggy voice, Ye Jie sighed and sat down on the bed right in front of her. "We have been friends for about 22 years now."
"22?" Xu Mey was surprised by this piece of information. "That's a long time, eh!"
Ye Jie chuckled at her words. "That's indeed been long enough."
"So, you guys must be like bros now, right?" Xu Mey asked curiously.
"Bros?" Ye Jie thought about the time when he met Ru. Indeed, he thought he found a bro for himself who knew after five years, he'd receive a huge blow when that bro turned out to be a 'girl'! "Yeah, very close bros actually." Both stayed quiet for a moment before Ye Jie asked, "Don't you have any other question?"
Xu Mey pondered a bit and shook her head, "Nope! I'm good." Ye Jie was surprised but as he expected Xu Mey couldn't stop her curiosity at all. "So, do you know anything about sensei that I don't?"
Ye Jie ruffled her bed hair making them an even bigger mess. "There is a lot that you don't know about your sensei." 'Your sensei being a female would be at the top of the list.' He didn't say the last words.
"For instance? Can't you share some secrets with your baby?" Xu Mey blinked her eyes giving him an innocent look.
"Mm..." Ye Jie thought about the secrets of his best friend and realized that the list was too long. "Well, your sensei is a foodie you must know already, right?" Xu Mey nodded her head vigorously. That she sure knew. "But do you know that your sensei is an even bigger fan of sweets than the food itself?"
Xu Mey raised her brows. "Really? I have never seen him eat any sweets."
"Also, your sensei doesn't like mobile phones at all."
"Huh? Why?"
"Because baby, he says that every problem in the modern age is created by this mobile phone."
"I knew he's weird. Never thought he was this weird." Xu Mey remarked.
"Now, finish your breakfast. Fast. I'll share more some other time." Ye Jie left her to eat her breakfast and went to his study downstairs.
