Mr. CEO Loves The Devilish Beauty Chapter 269 - Bros Gathering

After arguing for an hour, Wu w.a.n.g managed to convince his mother to go back home and Wu Xia had to follow her back as well. On the other hand, Xu Mey had an important meeting at the Xu Corporations and with much reluctance, she also left the hospital.

Since Sun Ju and Lin Shen's wedding was not far, they had to make a trip back to the Lin Family house to have lunch with the elders for some discussion and Wu w.a.n.g didn't dare to stop them.

With all of them gone, only Li Qiao, He Jian, and Ye Jie remained behind with Wu w.a.n.g.

"What? Don't you all have something to do?" Wu w.a.n.g stared at the three men who were busy drinking coffee elegantly on the sofas as if having a small gathering of friends. The three men on the sofa didn't spare him a glance and merely shrugged their shoulders nonchalantly. Wu w.a.n.g was enraged by their reaction but he still wasn't allowed to strain his vocal cords, therefore, he stayed quiet.

"Jian, my cousin wants you to design his new office," Li Qiao told He Jian keeping a calm look on his face.

"I'll look into it," He Jian answered as his gaze s.h.i.+fted towards Ye Jie as he said, "So, should I start calling you cousin now?"

The cup in Ye Jie's hand paused for a moment before he answered, "Suit yourself, Jian Ge!"

He Jian narrowed his eyes at Ye Jie while he smiled sweetly in return. This scene made Li Qiao frown a bit.

"So, when are you planning on confronting your parents? Oh, sorry! I mean fake parents." He Jian asked on impulse. "Or my dear cousin is still scared to do so?"

Ye Jie knew that He Jian was trying to incite him because even till now, he wasn't getting comfortable with the idea of having an older cousin brother. Although He Jian was only a few months older than him. But that didn't mean, he would let this cousin tease him like this.

Ye Jie took another sip of his black coffee and with a brittle smile said, "I heard Jian Ge's prospective life partner was supposed to meet him a couple of days ago. How was the meeting?" He Jian clenched his hands in fists while he tried his best to control his urge to punch Ye Jie's face.

"Ooohhh! That one must have stung!" Even Wu w.a.n.g couldn't help but laugh since Ye Jie chose the exact topic that ticked off He Jian. "Tsk... Tsk... I pity you both for using these means to have an argument." He was busy clicking his tongue.

Seeing that both He Jian and Ye Jie were equally stubborn, Li Qiao could feel the vibes of blood between them. He shook his head and tried to mediate the situation. "Jian didn't get to the meeting."

"Why?" Ye Jie inquired. This time he was genuinely curious to know the answer.

"Because when he was driving to meet the supposed 'prospective life partner'," even Li Qiao couldn't stop himself from air quoting as he went on, "I called him to inform about w.a.n.g's condition. Therefore, he ran over here to the hospital."

"Oh, sh*t!" Wu w.a.n.g swore as he glared daggers at He Jian. "Did you miss that d.a.m.n meeting?" He Jian nodded his head indifferently. Wu w.a.n.g looked hatefully at him and then he had the urge to cry. "Have you lost your mind? My mother empress is going to kill me!"

"I think Jian even made that girl wait for him since he didn't inform about his absence. She must have waited a long time before realizing that he stood her up." Li Qiao spoke out to inform Wu w.a.n.g and this time he really wanted to bury himself alive.

"That's very rude of you, Jian Ge." Ye Jie remarked with disappointment. "Leaving a girl alone on a date to wait for you is disrespectful. How could you even do that?"

"I was worried for my best friend's life. I didn't think about anything else at that time." He Jian spoke in his defense.

"Are you sure you weren't just trying to find excuses to run away from that meeting?" Ye Jie pointed out making He Jian roll his eyes at him.

"Dear cousin, I am not that cheap." Ye Jie nodded his head actually believing his words since he was already aware that He Jian was planning on asking that girl to reject the marriage proposal as he couldn't do so himself.

"What's wrong with you w.a.n.g? Should I call the doctor?" Li Qiao was the one to observe Wu w.a.n.g's blanched face.

The three of them came close to his bed and looked at him weirdly. Laying lifeless, suddenly an idea popped up into his mind as he searched for his phone and dialed a number.

"What is he doing?" Ye Jie asked seeing the anxious face of Wu w.a.n.g but the other two were just as confused as he was.

"Hey, little ducky! What's up?" Wu w.a.n.g's speaking manner took an abrupt change as the call was connected. After hearing the answer from the other side, he frowned, "You're taking your medicine? Why?" Again after a pause, he said, "You waited for Jian till the morning? Who does that? You fool! You're impossible."

'Till morning?' Li Qiao glared at He Jian while He Jian could only look down embarra.s.singly.

"Since you're the dumbest person who slept in the tea house while waiting for him obviously you'd be sick now." Wiu w.a.n.g scoffed and shook his head. "Anyways, the reason I called you is to ask for a favor." After taking a brief pause to hear, he added, "Can you please not tell mom about it? Please, pretty please! Although you don't give a d.a.m.n, it wasn't Jian's fault, I was hospitalized and he came running to me."

Ye Jie didn't understand the reason for such a request but the other two weren't fools. They knew themselves that if Fan Bingbing got to know that He Jian actually ditched his prospective wife, there will be riots!

Wu w.a.n.g finally smiled as he said, "Okay, thank you! As always, our little ducky is the best! I'll see you after I get a discharge." After he hung up the phone, he really wanted to punch He Jian. "You better meet her next week. For now, she'll tell mom that she was busy and couldn't meet you."

He Jian ignored him and went back to the sofa while Ye Jie followed him. However, Li Qiao leaned a bit close to Wu w.a.n.g's ear and asked, "Aren't you, my best bro? At least tell me who our future sister-in-law is?"

Wu w.a.n.g pushed him away and said, "After He Jian meets her, everyone will know who she is."

"Do we know her? At the very least, you can spill this much." Li Qiao was still insistent.

Wu w.a.n.g sighed heavily and said, "Yeah! You all have seen her. Now, let me rest." He even yawned to emphasize his point leaving Li Qiao's craving for gossip unsatiated.

"Jerk!" Li Qiao could only hatefully grumble.
