Mr. CEO Loves The Devilish Beauty Chapter 91 - She's No More...

Xu Mey noticed Ye Jie's unusual gaze. He was staring at He Jian and Wu w.a.n.g as if both of them were the criminals. And he was the executioner.

"Why are you giving odd looks to my Jian Ge and w.a.n.g Ge?" She couldn't help herself and asked him. Ye Jie looked at her face. As if reading Ye Jie's mind, Xu Mey burst out laughing.

"You think that Jian Ge or w.a.n.g Ge are engaged to Yu Kim?" She asked in between her hearty laugh.

"Am I wrong?" He inquired cautiously.

"Of course you're wrong, dear husband." Xu Mey consciously ruffled Ye Jie's hair and when his soft hair felt good to touch, she forgot to move her hand away. "The brother I was talking about is neither Jian Ge nor w.a.n.g Ge. The brother I was talking about is actually Qiao's cousin brother. What was his name?" She had a thoughtful look.

"Ahan!" She clicked her fingers and said, "Xin Xiamu. Yup… That's the name."

Ye Jie was enjoying her messing with his hair softly but the name entangled his curiosity.

Xin Xiamu? Why does it sound familiar?

"Hey, cherry wife!" Ye Jie started.

"En."

"Is this Xin Xiamu the same one from Xin Group of Industries?" He asked.

"Yes… He is." She replied in a bored way engrossed in eating her burger.

"How is Li Qiao related to Xin Xiamu? I never knew he had a cousin." Ye Jie commented.

Xu Mey placed her half-eaten burger on the plate, wiped her face with a napkin and sighed. "Actually my dear husband, Li Qiao's father was Xin Zhang who was Xin Xiamu's uncle. But when Li Qiao was born, a monk said something about his safety and life and whatnot. To be safe, Auntie Li gave her own family name to Li Qiao. So, Xin Qiao became Li Qiao. Got it?" She looked at him listening with utmost attention.

"That explains a lot." He said. "But can't his cousin walk out of this engagement. After all, Li Qiao and Yu Kim like each other."

"If we look at the nitty-gritty, Xin Xiamu was the one who introduced Yu Kim to Li Qiao. Kim might not know that she's engaged to Xin Xiamu but he's still her best friend."

"Which means Li Qiao is the one who came between them?"

"Now, that I can't be sure of. I never met Xin Xiamu. So, I can't say whether he loves Kim or he's just trying to live up to elders expectations and wishes." Xu Mey turned her focus back to her burger leaving Ye Jie to digest all the complicated information.

Ye Jie understood Li Qiao's dilemma. He couldn't s.n.a.t.c.h his own cousin brother's girl and he couldn't stop himself from craving for her as well. If Xin Xiamu had no feelings for Yu Kim, the matter could be simple and straightforward. But if Xin Xiamu is also in love with Yu Kim… Sigh… Ye Jie didn't want to think of the consequences.

"Excuse me!" Ye Jie heard a feminine voice making him look up. He Jian was sitting opposite of him and a girl was smiling at him.

"Yes, " He Jian replied curtly in a regal manner.

The girl was feeling bashful and the other girls behind her were urging her to say something. Ye Jie slurped on his soft drink enjoying the scene. It was like junior girls trying to strike up a conversation with senior boys they had a crush on.

"Do you have something to say?" He Jian asked impatiently.

The girl in floral skirt bit her lips and mustered up her courage. She stretched her hand which held her phone towards He Jian.

'Woah! Girls are really fast in this generation. Directly asking for the phone number? Hats off, man. Sigh! I wish someone teach this to my wife as well.' Ye Jie shook his head in forlorn.

But the girl in a floral skirt wasn't asking for He Jian's number. Instead, she was showing something to him on her phone. Whatever he saw it made He Jian's body stiffened which in turn made Ye Jie turn back to him.

"This is you, right?" The girl asked softly.

He Jian closed his eyes briefly and said, "Yes."

"How is your fiance?" The girl asked biting her lip again in nervousness.

He Jian's hand on the table clenched into fists. His face blanched and a redness poured into his beautiful almond eyes. He stood up from his chair. "She's no more." That's all he said before turning around and leaving the restaurant.
