Chapter 333 - Tell Me The Truth

CHAPTER 333

It was as though the world stood still at that point in time. Like it was frozen of some sort and nothing else moved other than the blinking dashing eyes of the lady standing in front of him.

"Li," Ye Cheng paused. He wanted to smile at seeing her especially since his heart leapt for joy but then again, there was that incident. "Li Jing."

"Hello, Ye Cheng. Long time no see."

"Li Jing." He blinked twice to make sure his eyes weren't deceiving him. "It really is you."

"Yeah. It is I. Can I come in?"

"Yes, sure. Anytime. You are always welcome to my office. Please, come in and have a seat."

"Thank you." She offered him one of her sweet work smile and entered the office, closing the door behind her.

Before she sat, Li Jing took a deep breath as her eyes took a quick scan of the office It was as she remembered it to be. Everything was just as she left it the last time. He did not make any changes.

Her eyes moved to the cushion in the office and a memory of her last time with him and their kiss flashed before her eyes again.

If not for the fact that he was there with her, perhaps she would have allowed the tears that threatened to form in her eyes, to flow out freely.

It was a memorable place for her.

"Please, do seat down." Ye Cheng's cool voice brought her back to the present and she took her seat in front of him.

"Hmm." He too let out a breath, allowing his eyes to rake over her, accessing the change in her since the last time he saw her at her dinner, introductory party.

She really had added a bit of weight since he saw her. Her cheeks were now fuller than last time, same with her hips and buttocks and a little at her bust. To say he was impressed was an understatement.

Ye Cheng was happy for all her addition. It simply meant she was having more peace of mind at her grandfather's house than she was having here with him.

In as much that thought made him happy, it also made him feel bad. It meant she wasn't always okay. It was not like it was a lie, it was the truth in fact.

With all the scandals she went through just because she was by his side and the hurt and all. Who wouldn't be more okay when they were away from that? Unknown to him that may not necessarily be the case.

Yes, Li Jing had the so called rest of mind but then again, she was overly worked up especially with the snakes in her family that were eager for her wealth.

It wasn't easy having your supposed close family members are the one causing your problems.

Furthermore, there was the situation of him. Herr heart ached whenever she thought of him. She wanted to be loved and top love in return. She finally figured out what her problem was and how much her heart wanted him but where was he when all this had clicked in place?

The only hope and what kept her going was the fact that she had her mother's image to look at whenever things were going tough.

It did really give her much confidence and peace of mind. And over time, she started adding some more flesh. With the way she was, she was now getting as beautiful as he mother.

"How have you been?" boith of them asked at the same time and smiled.

"Please yuou go first."

'Yopu go first." They chorused again.

Sigh! Ye Cheng looked at Li Jing through his lashes. She was virtually doing what he was doing and it wasn't like they had planned it.

"Hey."

"Hey." Li Jing responded and drew closer to the table out fo her seat.

"How are you?"

'I am fine and you/"

"Great, so great," Ye Cheng lied.

Li Jing shook her head. She wqas now good at telling if someone was lying or not just from one look at the person but Ye Cheng always remained the exception especially when his feelings were locked in.

The only way she knew he wasn't okay was because Han Qing Qing told her and the cringe at the corners of his eyes when he wasn't telling the truth.

"Tell me the truth. Something is wrong, Ye Cheng."

"It is nothing you should concern yourself with, Li Jing. I am okay and can handle myself."

"I know you can. After all, you are you but."

"I am fine," Ye Cheng cut in. "So what brings you back to Star City? I thought you would still be very busy?"

"Indeed I was. Or I still am. I came here for business and I thought that I would drop by to say hello."

"Oh, thank you very much."

Neither of them spoke, they were simply busy with their own thought to bother with the other person.

'Something definitely is wrong. He has his hair ruffled and I know that is a sign that something is bothering him. Did my absence here somehow cause this to happen to him? Or was it something else entirely?' Li Jing thought.

No matter how she thought, she just could not wrap her hands around it especially why he was being evasive with her like this.

'She is even more prettier than when I met her. I am glad she is okay. Shut it, Ye Cheng. You should not be admiring her like this.' His mind scolded him blue black.

While he checked her out, the image of Tang Zixin kissing her flashed before his eyes and his pain resurfaced.

'How long can you hide what is going on, Ye Cheng? I am here. Just speak to me.' Li Jing pleaded in her mind.

"Ye Cheng," her voice came out nice and soft. "How are you, really? How is work and business?"

"All good." He kept quiet again, taking his time to study her. "But you on the other hand, anything bothering you? You seem to be… I don't know. I can tell you have a lot on your mind as of now. Tell me the truth."
