Chapter 410 - I Came For You Baby
***********
CHAPTER 410
"Believe me, Li Jing. I had nothing to do with that," Kim Fan said raising his hands up.
"And I should just believe you?"
"Yes."
"You jest. Really Kim Fan, please do me the honour o saying the truth, why really are you here?"
"For so many reasons, Li Jing. So many but know this, I came to make a complaint that you Li Jing, my supposed friend and business partner, ignored the family arrangement wedding and came to get married here in this city."]
"And how is that any of your business?"
"Li Jing."
"Yes, I didn't stutter. How does whom I choose to marry and spend the rest of my life with having anything to do with you?"
"Because I love you, Li Jing. I love you."
"I do not love you, Kim Fan."
"I do. We were supposed to be engaged and get married to each other like our parents before us but your mother ran away and now, so did you. I am always thinking that it runs in the family."
"Kim Fan, watch your words. At least I know why she ran away. You guys are all the same. You have the same myopic mindset and stupid thinking. In this age and time, who still does arrange marriage, huh? Just because our parents' marriage deal did not work out, doesn't mean that ours will too or that there should be a transfer of responsibilities and all. I am not my mother. I have my own life to leave."
"But I do love you and I can take care f you."
"Am I complaining that I need someone to take care of me?"
"Li Jing."
"No, Kim Fan. You have to stop. You said you had no hand in the engagement just now but from what you are saying now, I am afraid I do not believe you. Nothing can happen between us. I am married and I love my husband very much besides, I had a life before I found my grandfather. So it is so very wrong if he thinks he can just waltz in cause I allowed him to, and dictate my life for me as to whom I am to spend it with or not."
"Li Jing."
"Hold it and let me finish. Let this be the first and the last time you come and tell me this, Kim Fan or else…"
"Then do what you must Li Jing because I would not stop. You are one of the reasons why I came to this town. I am back and I would take you as my wife."
Right there, Li Jing actually felt like facepalming herself but thought about the fact that why should she be hurting herself for this being?
"I never knew you could be so delusional, Kim Fan. Take a rain check, I AM MARRIED!" She spelt it outright for him and as she did she gestured with her fingers too.
"Hehhee… hahahaaa…" He burst out laughing, shocking Li Jing with his reaction a bit. "Li Jing, don't you know that what has been taken, can be retaken?"
"Ah… so you feel you can take me from him?"
"I do not feel, I know I can. I am back for you baby. Be prepared, pack your bags cause you are going to be mine."
It was Li Jing's time to smile. She did not bother arguing with him as it was going to be a waste of her time. Rather she dropped her hand beside her with a lovely smile on her face and leaned forward a bit so he could see the seriousness in her eyes.
"I do not know what my grandfather must have told you, but know this Kim Fan, I'd rather die than to be with you and just for the record… Your dream is going to be like your father's. Crushed and buried, never to be seen again. There is nothing you can do and there is nothing you will do. As of this day, I renounce every friendship with you. I already belong to someone and not even the universe can change the gift that has been given."
"We will see about that then. I look forward to reminding you of these words when you eventually become mine."
"There would be no reminding as there wouldn't be a 'US' in the first place. Now, please, kindly leave my office and anything that has to do with me."
He stood up, straightened his suit and smiled back at her as she withdrew, standing up straight with a fierceness in her eyes. She meant business and he knew that she was a different Li Jing than before.
"We would meet again."
"Get going, Kim Fan. Do not make me take a restraining order against you."
He looked at her again, assessing her divine beauty once as though it was the last time he would see her then he dipped his head in a bit, left his seat and then turned around, taking his leave.
Just as Kim Fan stepped out of her office, Li Jing's phone began to ring. She was in no way in any mood to speak to anyone at that moment and all her mind went to was that she was going to place her phone in airplane mode when she actually saw the caller.
"Honey. Oh my… I had totally forgotten. His letter must have gotten to him by now. I hope he likes it." Instantly her mood changed and her smile became fresh and new again, better than the one she gave Kim Fan.
"Hello, honey."
"I love you, babe. I love you so much and yes I would be your forever as you are mine."
Li Jing's cheeks began to turn red as a blush crept up her face. She was really happy by the turn of events. It seems like, he loved her love letter.
"I love it, baby. I love the letter and I am so glad and grateful for it all and for you."
