CHAPTER 222

"Happy new year beautiful. I hope you blush more this year and be genuinely happy."

His wish for her was so real and thoughtful that she felt her heart may burst any time soon due to over excitement.

"Ye Cheng. Thank you so much. I wish that you get all that you wish for in this year and rise above all those who seek after your downfall. Above all, I wish for your heart to heal and you find what your heart yearns for."

"And if I say I have found what my heart yearns for?"

"Then let your heart leas you. One thing I know for a certain, one does no tell the heart whom to love. It just happens."

"I wish all you wish me for you too. Let us rise together and show them we cannot be brought down."

She smiled again at his wish. If only the moment could be captured, they looked like a happy couple but here is life and life ain't always fair.

"Close your eyes," Ye Cheng commanded. At first, she wanted to question the reason but then she decided not and actually obeyed.

And once again her obedience was rewarded.

He smiled at her, closed his eyes and made a silent wish before opening them and planting a soft kiss on her forehead, then slowly he moved down and kissed her nose and went down to his price.

Wanting it to be so memorable for her, he delayed a bit, giving her something to look forward to before claiming what he hoped would be his in the future and kissing her.

He was shocked at her urgently she pried her lips open and welcomed his waiting tongue, kissing him with just as much fervour he gave and pa.s.sion.

There was no denying the fact that there was a strong attraction between them and with the way it was going, they would end up together but the fear that was etched deep in their hearts would be their one stumbling block.

Hours later, both of them laid down on the bed, sleeping and enjoying the night. Suddenly Li Jing felt a hand grab her and pull her close, waking her up from her sleep.

She looked up at him in the dark and realized that he was still sleeping. The whole scenario seemed familiar as it felt like a situation of de javu.

She recalled the first night she had spent with him and how he hugged her tight not willing to let her go, thinking she was Bai Qing Mei.

At that time she had seen his vulnerable side and knew that he had cared so much for the cheat of a human being, Bai Qing Mei.

She could see his lips moving in the dark but she could make up what it was he was muttering to himself some incoherent words.

"No… Don't touch her. Do not go." Li Jing's brows creased at his words. Who was it that he was telling not to go? She paused and did not say anything but rather she leaned in close to his lips in hopes of getting what he was saying again.

"Do not die. Do not go, please. Stay." She could see his brows creased and relaxed then the furrowed together as he continued muttering his incomprehensible words.

"Please, wait…. No, do not hurt her,. No, no…" He began to turn on the bed. "No, stop… Wait, no… do not do it. Nooo!"

He sprang up from the bed almost instantly and ended up colliding with Li Jing who was hovering over him and trying to get him to settle down. "Ouch!"

"Li Jing!" He was shocked when he heard her soft cry of pain as she held the part, at the side of her head where their bodies met. "Oh my G.o.d! I am sorry."

Ye Cheng wasted no time and immediately switched on the lights to check on her. "Li Jing, are you hurt?" She could feel and hear the concern etched deep within his tone and managed to pry her eyes open.

"I am fine. Just a little dizzy due to the collision we had." Ye Cheng let out a soft sigh but he did not still relax and decided to check her injury himself.

"Wait, let me see."

Minutes later after everything had calmed down, Ye Cheng laid back down and pulled Li Jing with him on the bed. Both of them laid back with Li Jing's head against his chest while his expert fingers began to lovingly caress her hair and forehead, petting her to sleep.

"What was your nightmare about?" Li Jing's voice tore through the thick silence in the room. Ye Cheng's fingers immediately stop what they were doing on her head and stared back at the ceiling.

He did not know how he was going to tell her considering that who or what he was dreaming of was not related to her but to his enemy.

But little did he know that his hesitation and silence had proved it to Li Jing who was aware when the nightmares started.

"It is nothing to disturb yourself with."

"It is Bai Qing Mei isn't it The accident, it still tortures you till this day."

She stole the words right out of his thoughts and Ye Cheng closed his eyes in utter defeat. There was no use lying about it now.

"Yeah. I have always had them ever since the accident. I see it all re[playing over and over again and although I know it was not really her, I guess the trauma just wouldn't stop so easily."

He had a point there, a painful one though. Li Jing half sat up, resting the weight of her upper body on her left arm as she gazed into his lovely eyes.

"Do not be scared anymore. It isn't real. Bai Qing Mei did not die."

"Exactly my point. Meaning an innocent lady died in her place all just to get my wealth and bring my business down." Li Jing could see the bitterness eat him up through his eyes and she too felt the sadness.
