Mr. CEO Loves The Devilish Beauty Chapter 272 - Biased Again

Splas.h.i.+ng the cold water on her face, Xu Mey blinked her eyes and shook her head. She was getting a splitting headache. She tried to rub her temples but to no avail.

She joined some j.a.penese business partners for a drink in the nightclub and now, she was regretting her decision. She had a pretty good alcohol tolerance but today she drank way too much.

Holding the wall, she tried to find her way back to the parking in a dizzy state of mind. She was trying to find her keys but it wasn't proving to be easy for her. In frustration, she kicked the front of her car and losing her footing, she staggered back.

Taking a deep breath, she finally managed to find the key and settled behind the steering wheel. Without further ado, she backed out of the s.p.a.ce but she crashed into an oncoming car in the traffic lane. Because of the sudden jerk, her head banged against the steering wheel.

Her ears rang for a while until she heard someone tapping on her window pane. Xu Mey opened the door but lost her consciousness before she could get out.

"It's a minor concussion. She needs to rest for a while." Xu Mey heard an unfamiliar voice as her mind came back from the dreamland. She felt the soft bed underneath her body and opened her eyes to find herself in a hospital bed.

"Thank you, doctor!" Xu Mey heard another male voice but this one was a lot familiar as if she heard it somewhere but her mind couldn't pinpoint where had she heard it. With a groggy mind, she tried to focus and saw a young man coming to her side. "Are you awake? Is it hurting somewhere?" Xu Mey tried hard to squint her eyes and looked back at the familiar face. She tried to speak but her throat was stinging and no sound came out.

Seeing her discomfort, the young man helped her in drinking some water. As the coolness soothed her throat, Xu Mey spoke up, "Kaden, what are you doing here?"

Xin Xiamu smiled at her relating the story of how in his heartbroken state he decided to hit a club but who knew before he hit the club, Xu Mey would hit into his car in the parking lot? He was scared out of his wits when he saw her fainting. He rushed her to the hospital and found out that it was a minor shock and nothing else.

Xu Mey scratched her head sheepishly and said, "Sorry! I overestimated myself after all that drinking. Are you hurt anywhere?" She was really guilty and seeing her guilt, Xin Xiamu decided to ease her up.

"Nope! I'm absolutely fine." He smiled radiantly making Xu Mey heave a sigh of relief. "Should I inform someone? Like your family?"

Xu Mey's eyes widened as she just realized that she had been in an accident and that too because she was drunk. If anyone and like anyone got to know, she'll be banned to even touch a car for the rest of her life. She already couldn't ride her bike because of the last accident and this one will even s.n.a.t.c.h her right to drive a car. No way! She can't afford that!

"Stop! There is no need to inform anyone." Xin Xiamu looked at her panicked state strangely and Xu Mey calmed herself a bit saying, "I mean, it's not like I got hurt or anything. I'm fine! Let's just look over this incident."

Thinking for a minute, Xin Xiamu decided not to push her and sat down beside her bed. "I'll just stay here with you then."

Xu Mey wanted him to leave since she wasn't his responsibility but he insisted and stuck around her. Looking around in the room, Xu Mey noticed Xin Xiamu's swollen and bloodshot eyes as if he had been crying. She knitted her brows in confusion.

"Kaden, what were you doing at the nightclub?" Xu Mey asked looking at his face directly.

"Nothing... I just thought to check out some local clubs." Xin Xiamu lied right through his teeth.

Xu Mey narrowed her eyes at him and didn't believe his words, not even for a moment. "Can you pa.s.s me my cellphone?" He obliged and pa.s.sed her cellphone to her. Xu Mey pondered for a while as she went through her contact list and finally, connected a call to someone. "Hey, Sensei!" There was silence at the other end for a moment before Xu Mey heard a low growl which made her heart skip a beat instinctively.

Then she heard the disembodied voice, "Do you have anything against me and my sleep?"

Realizing that she had spoiled her sensei's sleep, Xu Mey bit her own tongue and said, "Sorry! But it's your own fault for having a weird sleeping routine."

She heard a sigh from the other end. "Yes, yes! It's this lord's own fault. Now, get to the point! What are you calling me for?"

"Oh, that! I wanted to ask you a strange question," Xu Mey spoke honestly.

"Honestly speaking all your questions had been weird until now. I won't be surprised by this one either. So, shoot!" Xu Mey smiled to herself.

"Okay... Sensei, is it normal for boys to cry? I mean, when I was young I always heard that men are strong and they don't cry easily and if I go by my experience, I haven't seen men crying that frequently." On the other end, Ru had already figured that Xu Mey must have seen a guy crying and her unusual mind bugged her to ask this question.

"Who is crying around you and where was he?"

"I'll tell you later who he is. And he was going to a club. You just answer me now." Xu Mey wasn't surprised that her sensei actually figured the reason behind her question.

She heard some shuffling sound from the other end before the enchanting voice came, "It's a very stereotypical view that men don't cry. They are as much human as you are. In my experience, the reason behind a man's tears has always been a woman. Especially if the tears led them to get drunk."

Xu Mey raised her brows and stared at Xin Xiamu who was piqued by her conversation on the phone but was pretending to seem disinterested. "Hey, Kaden!" He looked at her face as she asked, "Did you cry because of a woman?" Hearing her question Xin Xiamu's eyes widened up in surprise. "Hmm... Well, from the reaction I can tell it is a woman's doing."

"Ahan! Told you so!" Ru didn't bother hiding the smugness in her voice.

"How were you so sure though? Because in my opinion, you're just biased." Xu Mey said to Ru since Xin Xiamu was still in a daze.

"It's simple. Men feel everything excessively. And to be very honest, a man's feelings are not fickle but rather deeper than woman's. But that's obviously me being biased again." Ru's answer wasn't surprising to Xu Mey at all.
