Mr. CEO Loves The Devilish Beauty Chapter 80 - Bad Day Into Warm One

Chapter 80 - Bad Day Into Warm One

While it was true that Ye Jie had only known Xu Mey for a short time but that short time had brought so many feelings with it that he hadn't experienced in his 8-year relations.h.i.+p with Lu Yuhan. The feelings and emotions that Xu Mey brought to him were indescribable to him.

Just like the feeling he got when he opened the door of the house to walk inside and was greeted by Xu Mey's beaming face. Her hair tied in a high ponytail. A peach cardigan over her white top with her washed up jeans was all she wore. A clean but flushed face making her look adorable and yet appealing.

"You're home!" She said as she moved to take his bag from him. He kept looking at her excited face. It was a very unfamiliar sight yet he wanted it to last forever.

'Why does forever sound too short suddenly?' He frowned to himself as he looked at her placing his bag gently on the coffee table in the living room.

In an instant, a million emotions and feelings overwhelmed him as he took long strides and hugged her slender figure from behind. Xu Mey was stunned for a second but she didn't push him away.

He clasped his hands in front of her as he buried her figure in his embrace. Taking in her lavender scent mixed with a peculiar refres.h.i.+ng scent which he couldn't decipher, he felt at ease. He rested his chin at her shoulder and closed his eyes gently.

"Bad day?" She asked as she raised her hand to touch his cheek.

Ye Jie leaned into her palm letting her soft cold hands bringing a relaxing feeling to him like a breath of fresh cold breeze. He only replied with a, ''En…''

"Need help?" She asked softly as her soft hands caressed his warm cheek.

"Just let me stay like this. It's already a huge help on your part." He answered sincerely.

If it was before, Xu Mey would have thought a million times how could staying like this could help him? But after sleeping in his embrace every night for the past week, she felt her own weariness dissipate. Therefore, she concluded that it must have been the same thing for Ye Jie as well.

They stayed in that position for a long time without realizing how much time had pa.s.sed. Xu Mey's head was tilted to a side touching his head as her hand was fondling with his cheek even now.

"Freshen up… Let's have dinner together, " Xu Mey offered, making Ye Jie groan lightly as he let her go reluctantly. Xu Mey saw creases between his brows indicating his fatigue. She pinched the s.p.a.ce between his brows and ruffled his perfectly trimmed hair. "Go on!" She had to lightly push his back to break his dazed state.

This time, Ye Jie listened to her and went upstairs to freshen up. After 20 minutes, when he came downstairs, a delicious and enticing aroma a.s.saulted his nostrils making him follow it like a bee flowing a flower.

He saw Xu Mey placing dishwares on the table as she saw him coming, she smiled faintly. Ye Jie saw the sizzling hotpot base with fresh vegetables and other ingredients besides it. He gave a questioning look. "I thought we should have hotpot. And don't worry, I made the mild-base. Not the piping hot spicy one."

Ye Jie couldn't help walk up to her and planted a soft kiss on her cheek. She was immediately fl.u.s.tered as she looked at him with a gaping mouth. "If you'll part your beautiful cherry lips in such an adorable way, then don't blame me for wanting to taste them." Hearing his flirtatious voice, Xu Mey closed her mouth instantly and pursed her lips making him chuckle.

Xu Mey pouted and glared at him. Ye Jie ignored her glare and focused on her red face.

'No matter what mom's opinion about you is, I'll not be affected. Standing up for Lu Yuhan might have been a mistake. But you are not a mistake at all. I just feel like one day you'll feel like, I'm not the person you were looking for to spend the rest of your life with.' Ye Jie's chin was supported on his palm as he looked at his Xu Mey stirring the hotpot and serving him.

She picked a meatball with her chopsticks and brought it to his mouth saying, "Try this… I made everything myself. It'll taste better than the restaurant's."

Ye Jie parted his lips instinctively looking at her talking animatedly. Even though the taste was really amazing but he still frowned and Xu Mey was more anxious looking at his frown. "Is it not good?" She was sure, it was the best. There was no way her hotpot didn't taste well.

"Didn't I tell you to rest?" He parted his lips to ask.

Xu Mey smiled sheepishly. "I… I wanted to…" She stammered thinking about what to say that doesn't make her sound weird. "But I had a feeling that you'd be upset and hotpot was best for cheering up." She couldn't possibly tell him that the real reason was, 'She wanted to make dinner for him and wait for him like she'd seen Auntie Chu, He Jian's mother doing for her husband.' She wanted to experience that feeling of a wife waiting for her husband and greeting at the door.

After experiencing it today, she felt much better than the feeling when he comes to pick her up from the office.

She kept placing different things in his bowl as he did the same. He was awfully quiet and it was making her feel upset. Just his tired face dampened her good mood. She suddenly had the urge to share how she crushed and humiliated Xu Liqing but she didn't know how he'd react. So, she didn't bring it up.

Without her realizing it, she had already made Ye Jie's bad day into a warm fluffy one.
