Mr. CEO Loves The Devilish Beauty

Chapter 10 - More Like The Love Of My Life


As per Xu Mey’s request or order, Ye Jie gave her the passcode to his house and she brought the interior designers and other workers to work their magic. She needed to turn the vacant room into her office. To achieve the task, she always brought the workers when Ye Jie was in the office.

It was true that Xu Mey had an Arts degree but a very few people in her circle knew that she was a Jewellery Designer who owned a famous Jewellery brand in Asia. The company was not that bog but every single jewelry piece of it was recognized as precious. Also, the company had a rule; they only designed limited pieces which were sold at an enormous amount. She worked like a crazed person to achieve the goal of turning her jewelry into a Brand recognized by the world.

She turned 28 this year but she couldn’t remember a single time when she actually went on a vacation. All her foreign tours were for the sake of her business. The only time she felt relaxed was whenever she was in the company of her friends. They made her feel secure. They brought the feeling of being loved and doted on. If anyone would ask Xu Mey, ‘What is love?’ Her answer would be ‘Her best friends.’

In the following days, whenever Ye Jun came across her, he had a pleasant grin plastered on his face. He tried to please Xu Mey in every way possible but neither she showed interest in his diamond-encrusted bracelet from Vintage nor the limited designer dress of Phantom.

What the poor guy didn’t know was that the bracelet he offered her was designed by herself, Vintage was her Brand name. While the limited dress he gave her was designed by Lin Shen’s girlfriend, Sun Ju who was the owner of Phantom Brand.

It took a week of work but her office was finally ready according to her wishes. On the weekend, she dropped by at Ye Jie’s place again to show him the office design. But another tenacious person followed suit, Ye Jun.

“Jun, you’ve been spending a lot of time at my place lately,” Ye Jie told his brother when he saw him trailing behind Xu Mey.

“Why? Can’t I come to my brother’s place?” Ye Jun asked with a bleak look. Ye Jun came inside the house moved ahead to hug Xu Mey. “Sister-in-law! Look I baked a cake for you with my own hands, today.” Seeing him getting closer to Xu Mey, Ye Jie came between the two and hugged his younger brother while patting his back with a little extra force.

Ye Jun rubbed his back after escaping from his brother’s clutches and glared at him. Then his expression took a 180 degree turn when his gaze fell on Xu Mey. She was standing in a corner amused by the antics of the Ye brothers. Ye Jun stretched his hand which had a glass box with a chocolate cupcake inside towards her.

“Thanks for the cake.” She took the cake from him with a polite smile and added, “Don’t make this again, I don’t like sweet things.” Ye Jun’s face fell but it turned into a grin after listening to her next words. “But I’ll eat this one for sure.” She took a small bite of the cupcake in front of him.

She realized in a week that people’s perception of Ye Jun was completely wrong. He was not a rude or narcissistic person instead he was like a big baby. From no angle, he looked like an accomplished PR Departments Head.

“Let me show you the office,” Xu Mey held Ye Jie and Ye Jun’s wrist excitedly and dragged them towards the back room. Her excitement was understandable, no one ever said to her ‘This is your place, do whatever you want’ before. She was grateful to Ye Jie for giving her a place to call home for the first time. Whether it was permanent or temporary, she pushed that thought to the back of her head.

She opened the door to display the black and white decor of the office. There were racks filled with comic books and Magazines along with novels and a whole row was covered with books of Chinese poetry. There was a laptop placed on the table along with stacks of sheets and pencils of different kinds. But the thing that caught both brothers eyes was the huge picture hanging on a side wall.

It was a picture clicked on a mountaintop, Xu Mey was in the middle of four boys who were ruffling her hair like a kid and her face held the broadest smile, Ye Jie had ever seen. Looking at the way both of them were expressionless after seeing the picture, Xu Mey explained, “They are my closest best friends. Actually no, they are more like the love of my life.” Listening to her saying, ‘love of my life’ both of the clenched their fists. “They are not in the city but I’ll introduce you to them at the wedding.”

Both brothers shared a look and silently made a pact to give them a hard time. Xu Mey was not aware of their evil schemes, if she knew, she would have kicked both of them where the sun doesn’t shine.

Ye Jie’s housekeeper had cooked the dinner and they sat together to share a meal. During the meal, Ye Jun asked, “Sister-in-law, who is planning the wedding?”

“Your parents and Xu family,” She didn’t call Xu family her own family but Ye Jun didn’t catch that mishap but Ye Jie definitely did. She looked at her indifferent look but didn’t say anything.

“But the wedding is yours. Why are you not deciding anything?” He was really curious about it. Usually, girls loved to plan their dream day but Xu Mey was talking as if the wedding was of a stranger. “Don’t you have a dream wedding in mind?”

“I didn’t even have the idea of a wedding in mind. Why would I have a dream wedding? If it was left to me, I would love to marry in Civils Affair Office and be done with it. I hate the idea of people looking at me like I’m some kind of showpiece.” She was eating her food nonchalantly but Ye Jun was gaping at her. Ye Jie was getting familiar with her out-of-box ways which made it easier to take this information as any other news.
