Mr Indifferent CEO, Be Careful With My Heart Chapter 296 - Confrontation

CHAPTER 296

"Yes," Li Jing whispered softly.

"Pardon? Sorry I did not get that," Tang Zixin asked.

"I said yes. I would go."

"Thank you. A date it is then."

Just like that the next day came for their outing. Li Jing wasn't particularly feeling it especially whenever she thought of Ye Cheng, it made her feel like she was doing something bad. Indeed her heart, mind and soul was captured by the thought of him.

"Li Jing, stop thinking too much about it. It is just a friendly date," Yin Lifen advised her friend.

"As much as I want to believe those words you say, I just can't."

"Why?"

"Something tells me, Tang Zixin likes me."

"Who wouldn't?" Li Jing turned around to face her friend with both hands wrapped around her boy. "Yes, you heard me well, Li Jing. Who wouldn't? Have you looked at yourself in the mirror lately?" Yin Lifen asked again.

"I have and I do in the morning."

"I doubt that."

"I do not get you, Fen Fen. Speak straight."

"Okay, I would help you out. Baby girl you are adorable, intelligent, beautiful and a now no nonsense girl. Every man would want you when they see you. Every man that gets to know you would definitely want to be with you. Even if I am a guy, I would want to date you."

Oohhh… that was definitely straight to the point. Li Jing's eyes fell open at her friend's words.

"So please do not be surprised when a guy actually likes you. It is a good thing Li Jing."

"But I do not feel the same way."

"No one asked you to feel the same way about them and I know why you are about to turn and push tang Zixin down is because your heart is with someone else."

Li Jing sighed and finally fell down on her bed and used her hands to cover her face.

She did not want to discuss the issue with Yin Lifen because she knew her friend would push her to meet up with Ye Cheng.

It wasn't that she did not want to do so but the fact that she did not want to push things and end of regretting things.

For now she was happy that they were apart and she knew that her heart still wanted him.

She wished he would be able to figure things out as well and even if it was going to take time she did not care and was ready to wait so long as she was sure the next time she was going to enter a relationship.

"Until when would you realize that you are hopelessly in love with Ye Cheng?" Yin Lifen walked over to where she was on the bed and placed her hands on her waist like a mother hen.

"Until my heart can no longer withstand it."

"What! Li Jing!"

"Calm down. I know I really like Ye Cheng and that my friend, I would not deny but as to loving him…"

"Do not even try to deny that, Li Jing because you would lose." Yin Lifen said cutting in. "You know what and whom your heart yearns for but he himself seems to be denying his feelings just like what you yourself are doing."

"Exactly, we have both being hurt big time and I am sorry if we choose to take time and weigh things first."

"And whose idea was that to wait? Huh? Because I know Ye Cheng would have gone for you by now but you are not willing to take that risk. He is not willing as well to lose you both as a friend and as a lover. Don't you miss kissing him?"

Li Jing's eyes stung when her friend uttered the last sentence. She felt her vision go blur all of a sudden. Of course she missed him.

She missed the feel of his lips on hers. She wanted to experience it once more, even if it was for the last time.

But she knew he was mega busy if not he would have been disturbing her by now. And knowing that fact was one reason why she was not willing to bug him much.

The last thing she wanted was to distract him. She herself needed more time to figure it out and know how much she loved him.

A lot of things were weighing down on her mind now. First was her mother's disappearance and second was the problematic relatives she had.

She did not know if she was ready to mix up the problem of a long distance relationship in al of this.

She did not want what happened between Ye Cheng's parents to happen between them and one party has to suffer.

"I believe it would work out if it was meant to be," Li Jing spoke after some time and wiped the teardrop that escaped her eyelid.

"Baby… You cannot hurt yourself like this."

'I won't. I would rather delay than have my heart been torn again."

"Do you think he is capable of hurting you?" Yin Lifen asked and sat down on the bed beside Li Jing.

"I know he won't. It is the girls surrounding his life I do not trust. I do not think I want to hear or see more scandals."

'It was a one time thing, Li Jing and he explained to you." It was when Yin Lifen stayed with Li Jing that she got to find out about the incident during their trip.

She felt sad for her friend but she also encouraged her not to take it to heart and let her love lead.

"I know. Anyways, let us stop with the topic. What do I wear for my date with Tang Zixin?" Quickly she picked herself back up and strode over to her wardrobe.

Yin Lifen smiled at her friend's bravery in handling things. True she was in better control of her emotions these days. That was one thing she was proud of her on.
