Mr. CEO Loves The Devilish Beauty Chapter 302 - Thinking Logically

He Jian originally planned to wait for a moment of distraction to contact Li Qiao but his plans were spoiled when Xu Mey extended her hand and said, "Your phone, Jian Ge."

The trio had already blocked Li Qiao's number and only He Jian was left. He Jian was definitely reluctant but he had to give in to Xu Mey. She took his phone and blocked the number but didn't pa.s.s the phone back.

"Xiao Mey, my phone?" He Jian asked for his phone but Xu Mey paid no heed to his words as she stuffed his phone in her front pocket.

She eyed him skeptically before saying, "I don't trust you. So, your phone and you will stick with me."

"What? How can you even say that?" He Jian gave a look of being wronged. "I only wanted to remind you how much you love Qiao and-" Xu Mey raised her hand to stop him from saying anything else.

"Jian Ge, don't you think you should be taking my side now." Under Xu Mey's eyes, Jian felt pressured. "You and I share double relation now. I'm not only your best friend but also your sister-in-law as well. Choose your side wisely now."

He Jian was left stumped for words. He really was stuck between a rock and a hard place. But what could he do now? He could only relent and that he did.

As the silence prevailed in the room, the door was pushed open and a cheerful voice rang out, "Dr. Lin, would you like to have lunch with me?" All of them turned their head to see Yang Ziyi standing at the door with her hand still holding the doork.n.o.b.

Yang Ziyi wasn't focused on them as she felt that the doork.n.o.b in her hand was rattling, she gave it a twist and the doork.n.o.b came out in her hand.

"Wow! Bravo, Dr. Yang! You actually broke the lock of my door." Lin Shen knew that it wasn't her fault but he was amused by the way Yang Ziyi was gaping at the broken doork.n.o.b in her hand.

"I didn't do it..." Yang Ziyi tried to defend herself in a weak voice without knowing that the murderers of that particular doork.n.o.b were seated right before her eyes.

"Haiz! Forget it! Why are you here?" Lin Shen didn't scare her anymore.

"I... I came to ask you out for lunch." Yang Ziyi answered immediately getting over the fact that she broke something.

Before Lin Shen could answer, Wu w.a.n.g, beat him to it saying, "Ziyi, didn't I tell you Shen is engaged. Why are you still trying to seduce him?"

Yang Ziyi pointed her index finger at Wu w.a.n.g hatefully and said, "You! Do you take everyone to be like yourself? I just didn't want to eat alone and as a colleague, I asked him out. What's so wrong with that?"

"You have other colleagues as well." Wu w.a.n.g pointed out sharply.

"Yes... But no one likes to eat with me." Yang Ziyi grumbled in a low voice and turned to leave.

"Stop!" After seeing this lively scene between Yang Ziyi and Wu w.a.n.g, how could Xu Mey let her leave? Yang Ziyi gave her an inquiring look. Xu Mey abruptly stood up and said, "I'm also famished. Let's have lunch together. We can give Dr. Yang company as well."

Who would say no to Xu Mey? Seriously, no one will!

All of them promptly agreed and made their way out of the room. While leaving the room, Lin Shen stopped to lightly caress the door and whispered, "You suffered... I should have known these hooligans were up to no good." Shaking his head with an aggrieved look, he followed the rest of them.

They chose a handmade noodle shop and settled inside.

Being the most excited one, Yang Ziyi didn't sit with them but instead roamed around to survey the small shop.

"Why no one eats with her?" Xu Mey was the one who voiced out this question.

"Because she's too honest with her words." Lin Shen answered indifferently. But seeing their frowning faces, he had to describe further, "The other day, she went to have lunch with some nurses. One of the nurses had recently gotten engaged and was showing her engagement ring to others like it was some precious treasure. Being the loudmouth that she is, Yang Ziyi bluntly said that the ring wasn't any special and even the diamond was fake as well. That's all it took for her to receive the wrath of her colleagues."

"That's it?" Xu Mey wasn't convinced.

"There are other cases like these but another one that stood out to me would be when she saw a doctor having an affair with a nurse and said it out loud before everyone not knowing that one of the people around her was that particular doctor's wife." Wu w.a.n.g spurted out the water that he had just drunk.

"She really got herself outcasted?" Wu w.a.n.g asked with disbelief and Lin Shen nodded his head. "I knew it!" Wu w.a.n.g muttered to himself.

When their noodles were served, Yang Ziyi swiftly came back to join them. Under Xu Mey's watchful eyes, Yang Ziyi picked up her chopsticks and closed her eyes saying, "May this meal brings me happiness."

Xu Mey's eyes widened as her prayer reminded her of a certain someone. She smiled to herself but stayed quiet.

"Aren't you guys missing a person?" Yang Ziyi asked while eating her piping hot noodles. "Why isn't the fifth person of your group here?"

"Because we don't want him to be here." Lin Shen retorted impa.s.sively.

"Why?" At her question, Wu w.a.n.g gave her a basic idea of the dispute. Yang Ziyi chuckled and said, "You guys are acting petty and childish."

"We are petty." Xu Mey answered with a straight face.

"And childis.h.!.+" Wu w.a.n.g joined in.

"Also, we know that very well." Lin Shen concluded and went back to eating.

Yang Ziyi could feel the atmosphere turn a bit tense and she stopped talking.

"We might be all that you just said but our anger is also justified." Unexpectedly, He Jian made a comment. "Even if Qiao couldn't tell us about it last night because he did it on impulse, he should have called us in the morning. It's been over twelve hours and we are yet to hear a word from him. As best friends, it really hurts."

Xu Mey suddenly had a new found admiration for He Jian as she kept staring at his face.

Yang Ziyi nodded her head in understanding but her blunt nature kicked in soon enough as she said, "Don't take it to heart. He must have forgotten with all the hanky panky business he finally got to enjoy."

Xu Mey: "..." 'Is she for real?'

Wu w.a.n.g: "..." 'I knew she was gonna spout some nonsense.'

Lin Shen: "..." 'Does it really suit a doctor to say words like 'hank-panky' so nonchalantly?'

He Jian: "..." 'Her blunt mouth is definitely suited for w.a.n.g!'

As always, only He Jian was thinking logically.
