Mr Indifferent CEO, Be Careful With My Heart Chapter 363 - Jealous Much

************

CHAPTER 363

Just like that nothing changed but Li Jing still persevered. One day, Tang Zixin called her. He needed her input on something. He was planning to start a new business and wanted her opinion on it.

Although he did not brief her much on the issue, he just told her he needed her help.

"No worries. I would be on my way." Li Jing ended the call then went to put on a fresh change of clothes. She had not gone to Ye Cheng's company after work at hers.

She wanted to relax and prepare a sumptuous dinner for him afterwards so he got to eat right when he closed from work.

She checked the time and saw that it was 1 pm. Meaning, she still had about three hours before her hubby returned. She could see Tang Zixin briefly and return on time to still cook the food for him. With that thought in place, she picked her purse and car keys, then left her room.

Unfortunately for Li Jing, Ye Cheng came home quite early that day and when she was about leaving the house, she met him at the doorway.

"Ye Cheng!" She looked startled like she was not expecting to see him. Technically, she wasn't.

He squinted at her then accessed her from head to toe without making it obvious that he was. 'She looked like she is going for an important outing. I wonder where?' Ye Cheng thought.

Where was she in such a hurry he wondered but did not say much about it.

"Ye Cheng, you are back early," Li Jing suddenly blurted out.

"Yes. I got tired and came home to rest."

"Oh. I see. How was work?"

"It was okay." He did not say anything. It was like she was waiting him to speak first but he didn't and that had only worried her.

She raised her eyes to look at him that was when he asked. "Where are you off to?"

"Umm, out?"

"Where?"

"Going to see a friend."

"Which?"

"Tang Zixin. He needs my help with something." At the mention of Tang Zixin, Ye Cheng's eyes widened a fraction but as quickly as his shock came, he masked it.

Li Jing could feel the air change suddenly. It was obvious he wasn't happy but being who he was, he said nothing about it.

"With what?" This next thing he asked her put her off. Why was he treating her like she was some teenager wanting to go to a party?

"I do not know exactly but I think it is business related. Anyways, I would leave you to go catch that rest and when I return, I would prepare you a nice dinner. Enjoy."

She did not give him any more time to speak further and the next thing Ye Cheng knew, Li Jing had entered her car and drove off.

"Tang Zixin hmm. I presume I was just the one thinking she was not doing anything with him."

That day, Li Jing had returned a bit later than 4 pm and quickly rushed to make his dinner.

All through the meal, Ye Cheng remained silent and did not say anything to her. He just calmed down.

Days went like that and Li Jing began to see more of Tang Zixin. They had to plan some things and she was already seeing this new business as one worth partnering or investing in. So they began to talk business together.

Meanwhile, Ye Cheng had been taking note of all her outings and kept quiet about it until one day when he saw them meeting.

He had observed their talk and although nothing sensual was going on, his jealousy that someone else could enjoy her time that way, while they barely talked got the better of him and he drove back home.

Unfortunately, they had gotten so engrossed with their findings that they failed to notice the time and by the time she checked, it was already past seven in the evening.

"Oh my gos.h.!.+ I failed to keep track of time. I need to get going, Tang Zixin."

"I am sorry, it was my fault."

"Nah, I love all of the ideas. I would see how we can fix them all and input them in the plan tomorrow or no let us meet next tomorrow. I have been away from home for some days now and I think Ye Cheng is now moody again," Li Jing confessed.

"To some extent I am glad. It means he is missing you badly. I am glad. I bet sooner or later he would be telling you how he feels." He was being optimistic about the whole thing.

Not that she did not appreciate it, she did but in reality there was a but. This was Ye Cheng she was talking about here. He was different.

"I hope so but knowing Ye Cheng, I doubt. He would let his actions show he cares and that is it. Anyways, ciao."

Li Jing hurriedly packed her things and ran away. She had intended on going to the market today to get some needed ingredients in making some mooncakes for Ye Cheng. Now she forgot.

Sigh! I really need to get him an appeasing gift soon.

Minutes later, Li Jing found herself entering the house in a hurry. She asked after e Cheng and was told he retired early after waiting for her. He also refused to eat the meal that was prepared and went upstairs.

Feeling bad, Li Jing asked the maids to relax. "Do not worry. I would prepare something nice quickly for him to eat, okay?"

"Yes mistress," the maid politely answered.

"Great. For now, let me hurry up and see how he is doing. You may go now."

"Yes ma."

Although she said she would prepare him something to eat after going to greet him first, in actual truth all Li Jing wanted to do was to go see him and apologize.

With that said, Li Jing made her way upstairs to their room and as soon as she opened the door…

"Where have you been?"
