Mr Indifferent CEO, Be Careful With My Heart Chapter 199 - Where Could You Be?

CHAPTER 199

~Sun Cresent City~

Immediately after Li Jing left where Ye Cheng was, she ran to the garden in the hotel and went to sit down under a cherry blossom and cried her heart out.

It was too much for her as the annoying image of Duan Tian and Li Xiu continued replaying in her mind. She wanted no part of it but her mind wouldn't allow her to be.

It was either that image or the image of Ye Cheng on top Ru Mei Xing that clouded her senses. She chose the former as the image of the latter hurt her more.

She had started opening her heart again but what did she get, he hurt her even before their relationship began.

She did not know why she let her heart trust someone again after what Duan Tian did to her.

"Ye Cheng, why? Not you too. Not you too."

She hugged her knees close to her chest and continued crying.

By the time Ye Cheng finished dressing up, he left his room in search of her but after searching for long, he failed to find her and calling her was out of it as Li Jing switched off her phone immediately.

She knew he would call and she did not want to speak to him either or hear what he had to say. To her, he was like the rest. Men were not to be trusted.

"Li Jing, please, where are you? Put your phone back on." His mind was already thinking the worst right now.

It had not even been up to a week when he managed to talk her out of leaving him and giving them a chance and now this happened.

His heart began to race wildly in his chest and his breathing became ragged. He was going to lose it if he did not find her.

It had been 2 hours of continuous searching for her and yet he did not see her. He had called the receptionist and they had not seen her pa.s.s by the lobby.

"Where could you be, Li Jing?"

Meanwhile, Li Jing had cried and decided to leave the city. She wanted no part being there and he could enjoy his meeting with or without her.

As she was returning, she saw Ye Cheng run out of the hotel and took his left to check somewhere else again. She quickly hid till he was out of sight and she ran back upstairs to pack her things.

She booked a flight online and before long she was set to leave. She was careful when pa.s.sing the lobby the first time, so they did not see her and could not alert Ye Cheng.

Without being told, Li Jing knew just how influential he was and knew if she did not want to see him, she had to be careful.

By the time her cab arrived, she made her way downstairs but she had to check out, so she knew it was inevitable that he would find out she had left.

Regardless, he wouldn't meet her as she intentionally delayed so that when she got to the airport, the plane would not take long before it left.

Just as she had predicted, immediately she left the hotel, a call was put across to him that she had left and he came rushing back in a cab. He had gone out in search of her before but now, he could only think of getting his things as well.

~Star City~

By the next day, both Ye Cheng and Li Jing were already back in the city. Rather than staying in his house or the condo unit she was staying at before the whole rioting problem, Li Jing went over to a hotel to stay in.

She just wanted to be alone and she decided to avoid Yin Lifen as well as she knew her friend would go ballistic on her and ask her to give him a listening ear.

Besides, she knew that Yin Lifen still thought she was at Sun Cresent City so if she saw her now in her house, it would only arouse suspicions and countless questions.

Yin Lifen was more than glad to ship them together and would always follow the motion of shipping them. 'I bet Ye Cheng has her brainwashed for her to always support him be he wrong or right.' Li Jing thought as she laid down on the bed.

Ring! Ring!

She turned to her side to check the caller. She had forgotten to turn her phone off after she ordered pizza. "Sigh, you better not be Ye Cheng." As she looked at the caller, her eyes widened and she quickly answered the call before it went dead.

"h.e.l.lo."

"Li Jing, good afternoon. How are you?"

"I am fine and you?"

"I am good. I am sorry for not checking up on you since. I just got back to town. I travelled for a business meeting."

"It is okay, Tang Zixin. I have been fine."

"You and I know that is not true. Anyways, I would like to see you. Are you free?"

"Yes."

"We can meet at any restaurant of your choice if you like."

"No."

Tang Zixin's brows creased at her sharp reply. "Pardon."

"I mean yes but not at a restaurant. I would send you my address and you can come to meet me where I am."

"Okay. It's all good. I would be there in an hour's time."

"Alright. See you later." She ended the call and sent him her location first before dropping her phone on the bed. A small smile appeared on her lips as a thought popped into her head.

It had been long since she saw him and perhaps he was who she needed to talk with. She always felt calmer and happy when she conversed with him, unlike Ye Cheng that loved to tease her.

Tsk!

It had not even been fifteen minutes when she laid back down to rest than she heard a knock on her door.

'That was fast. I thought he said one hour.'

She got up and made her way to open the door.

Knock!

"I'm coming!" she pulled the door open. "Yea…"
