Novel Bin Chapter 196 - Best Thing That Ever Happened To Me
Xu Mey shook her head and thought about how did the conversation took this strange turn? They were clearly talking about something else but now they were talking about babies.
The biggest shocker for Xu Mey was that she was actually feeling excited at the idea of having a kid with Ye Jie. The person that could make you feel giddy about the future really is a precious one. Xu Mey wasn’t scared of the future anymore, she was actually anticipating it day after day.
The days she spent with Ye Jie was akin to a surprise gift with an infinite layer. Every day they both peeled off a layer and enjoyed the gift of the day. The more she disregarded the presence of Xu Liqing and Fu Lan and most of all her past, the more she felt life was beautiful.
It was Ye Jie’s presence that made her realize that even if she snatched the smile off of Xu Liqing’s face, that smile won’t be hers. Instead, that smile will become a reminder of how she was deceiving herself. A borrowed smile always stays as a borrowed one, it can never become a part of you entirely.
"Ah-Jie, let’s get back to the serious topic." Xu Mey took a few steps back making a distance between their bodies as they came down the dance floor.
"Baby, do you think the topic of our kids is not serious?" Ye Jie made a sad face. "Is the idea of having my babies that repulsive to you?"
"I did not say such a thing." Xu Mey argued while Ye Jie smiled at her acting defensive all of a sudden. "Ah-Jie, can we please focus?"
"Okay... I won’t disturb now."
"Alright! So, I was saying that you should go and attend to your work." Xu Mey suggested.
"Baby, the work is in Imperial City and it might take a few days there. I really don’t want to leave you here." Ye Jie caressed her cheek with his knuckles.
"But the work is important and you should go. I can manage everything here for you."
Ye Jie groaned and said, "I can’t just leave my gorgeous wife here all alone."
"Ah-Jie, are you jealous that people are looking at me?" Xu Mey asked teasingly.
"Why would I be jealous?" Ye Jie snorted. He had seen the gazes of men on Xu Mey but it didn’t affect him much since he knew one thing as always he reminded himself; she was his and his alone.
"Huh? So, you’re not jealous at all?" Xu Mey felt a bit sad.
Ye Jie flicked the space between her brows saying, "My silly baby, why would your Ah-Jie be jealous? They can look all they want, I can’t stop them and I don’t blame them as well since my baby is so beautiful that it’ll be odd if they didn’t look at you. I would think something is wrong with their eyes if they didn’t look at you."
Xu Mey grinned like an idiot. "Oh, really?"
"Yes, really." Ye Jie replied and pulled her closer making her look into his eyes as he said, "Also, they should be the jealous ones because they can only see, only my baby’s Ah-Jie can touch her," he touched the exposed space on her back. "Kiss her," he planted a kiss between her brows. "And plan babies with her." Xu Mey blushed hard as he rubbed his hand over her stomach.
"Aren’t you acting deviously tonight?" Xu Mey asked.
"Well, I can’t help it. To match my baby’s devilish side, I have to be a bit devious myself."
Ye Jie’s phone rang again making him curse out. "I told you I don’t want to come-" Before Ye Jie could continue, Xu Mey took his phone from his hand.
The person at the other end was saying, "You’re not understanding. If these Russian people went back then forget about entering the Russian market. I’m telling you, this is very important."
Xu Mey silently listened and spoke at the end. "Don’t worry. You arrange the meeting, Jie will be there soon." She disconnected the call leaving the other person in a daze.
She gave Ye Jie his phone back and said, "Ah-Jie, you’re going and that’s final." Ye Jie opened his mouth to say something but Xu Mey raised a finger saying, "We’re not discussing. It’s an order."
She pulled his hand and brought him outside the party. Near the car, she turned to Ye Jie and said, "You don’t have to worry about anything. I promise you that I won’t do anything without you being by my side."
"I don’t want to leave you alone with that Fu Shuang." Ye Jie said honestly.
"I thought you weren’t jealous of anyone?" Xu Mey raised her brow at him.
"I’m not jealous of him. I just don’t trust him and I don’t like the fact that he’s been in your life when you didn’t even know me."
Xu Mey palmed Ye Jie’s face and smiled saying, "Jie darling!" Ye Jie stared at her with his mouth agape. "Even if he was there when you weren’t, always remember that only you can walk my journey with me. He saw me when I was weak. You are here to watch me grow stronger."
Ye Jie smiled and leaned into her touch. Then he turned his head a bit to kiss her palm. "I really am gonna miss you."
"Ah-Jie, I’m already missing you but I can’t be an obstacle in your way."
"Baby, you’re the best thing that ever happened to me. How could you be an obstacle?" He pulled her in his embrace and kissed the top of her head.
Silently under the lanterns, they stood in each other’s embrace for a long time. If it was up to Ye Jie, he would never leave Xu Mey at any cost but Xu Mey was the one who asked him to leave so he could only listen without any argument.
