Mr Indifferent CEO, Be Careful With My Heart Chapter 194 - A Chance

CHAPTER 194

With one hand at the back of her head and the other holding her chin in place, he stopped her.

Li Jing who was least expecting such to happen suddenly opened her eyes only to see him very close to her.

Before she could object, she found that he moved in and captured her lips in his, sealing them in a sweet pa.s.sionate slow kiss.

With one hand snaking behind her to wrap around her waist and pull her close to him and the other still holding the back of her head, Ye Cheng parted her lips with his tongue and dove in.

His kiss wasn't rushed but calm and slowly giving. She kissed him back but as soon as she did, she pulled away.

"No."

"Li Jing, wait, please listen to me."

His kiss was doing so much to her. She was just trying to tell him that they couldn't work and now he did that? What was he expecting from her, she quickly had to stop it before her mind went completely blank and she gave in.

"I don't want to."

"Stop it. I am not here to scold you about anything but that you should forgive me."

She was left speechless by his words. She had least expected that from him.

"I wished you had picked up your call earlier and I would have warned ypu npt to return home. I wished I was there with you when it happened to protect you. I wished Bai Qing Mei would stop doing these things and I regret many things but I do not want to scold you and I definitely do not want you to leave."

"But nothing is going on between us really."

"There is. I feel it and you feel it too. Why not let us give it a chance to bloom?"

"Ye Cheng."

"Just do not leave."

"Ye Cheng, things are difficult and different. I do not think I can handle my every day life to be like this. I have been hurt deeply by their words and I just can't. At least we do not love each other so, it shouldn't be hard to let go of this thing."

"Li Jing."

"I am not leaving. I am still your friend and best ally but I do not think a relationship can work with us."

Ye Cheng released her from his grasp and ruffled his hair with his hands. Things were just not going accordingly.

Things weren't supposed to be like this and that was because he had no better argument. He could not say that he loved her yet as his heart was still being guarded against loving anyone but he liked to have her close.

She gave him a sense of joy like no one had except that girl.

And more than anything she was intelligent and his best ally. He just did not want to let her go or cause anything to harm her but then again she was right. Being close to him was causing her harm.

And if he really cared about her well-being and safety, then he should know that she would always be at harm's way by being close to him. All the others would take it out on her one way or the other.

"Can you let things be as they are for now. At least let us see what happens, let us see where things lead but please do not be the one to stop it."

"I…"

"I know you like me too and I do. I love having you around and I admit I was wrong to have been controlling, so please let us try and forge a path ahead together."

Left with that kind of argument, Li Jing knew she lost the fight already. It wasn't too bad to give things a try and just watch were things went. It was an idea she could work with. She would also guard her heart as she did not want anyone to tamper and break it.

She already experienced a heart break and did not plan on experiencing more.

"Fine."

Ye Cheng smiled at her before pulling her close for a hug.

Things sure did escalate quickly.

***

By the next two days, Li Jing became a whole lot better but Ye Cheng refused for her to go back to her house and she was left with no much choice but to stay with him although she had her own room and privacy and they behaved like normal people.

Even though they had said they should watch things and see where it lead, they did not behave like a cute couple and that had made his maids wonder if the young master and his girlfriend where fighting.

Later that morning, Ye Cheng was informed that he would be having a meeting at a different city so he decided to take Li Jing with him on his travel since he was too worried about her safety.

It also made more sense as her strong IQ would help him spot out loop holes if he ended up missing out any. It did not kill to have her on board.

By the time they arrived at Sun Cresent City, it was already noon and Ye Cheng had them lodge in one of the best hotels in the city.

He was already tired but the meeting was slated for 3 pm which meant he had like an hour to rest before going before the meeting.

It was going to be a two days meeting and so he decided not to stress Li Jing as the first day's meeting did not require her much since it was basically for formalities and the likes.

Meanwhile, a certain person saw him when he was lodging into the hotel and her eyes sparkled.

This was her lucky day. The Ye Cheng she had been dying so much to meet in person was lodging in the same hotel as hers.
