Mr Indifferent CEO, Be Careful With My Heart

CHAPTER 492

Letting out a deep sigh, Bai Qing Mei watched as her grandfather exited her office before making her way back to her seat.

She was in a dilemma. She had been seeing the news recently and watched how Li Jing and Ye Cheng were blooming on love and it angered her further.

She wanted to get back at him and have her time with Hao Huizhong but he was nowhere to be found.

Her relief system was failing her. She also needed to come up with a plan to end their relationship and marriage soon before her own mental health is worsened.

But left to her, meeting with Li Xiu and debating out nonsense was probably going to get her a headache and for that, she needed Hao Huizhong.

"How dare that young man not bother calling me all this while? Has he gotten another girl already to fulfil his sexual desires? How dare he?"

Just the thought that he was no longer into her again was making her brain gets twisted.

She knew she had to call him for the sake of her mental health and sanity, else her grandfather would take drastic decisions against her.

'You better do the right thing and fix yourself, Qing Mei. I won't pamper you anymore. I promise you, you would lose this company if you do not pull yourself together. If you cannot settle yourself with this, how can you settle and handle issues of the company or even take it to the top?'

"Urghh! Why can't that old man just leave me alone? Gosh! I wish dad was here," she cried out.

Honestly, having lost her dad, she became the spoilt miss of the Bai family. Her mother and maternal grandpa spoilt her silly, giving her all she ever wanted without a second thought.

So even though she was daddy's girl, he never spoilt her and in order for her not to miss him too much, they did.

Now she really missed those days when he would scold her and still pet her later.

But her grandfather did not have such patience one bit. He was just like her mum. She hated being lashed at.

"I miss you, papa," she voiced out silently as a tear slid down her cheek. Not bothering to wipe it away, she decided to make the call and get her shit together.

Ring! Ring!

She called him twice but he never picked up. Her frustration increased a millionfold.

She hated being stood up especially on calls. Most times hse did not want to care if you were busy or not and would get mad.

"Wait, Qing Mei calm down, calm down, you are fuming right now,: she advised herself.

"No… Urghh, where the bloody hell did he drop his phone? How does he not expect me to call him that his phone is not with him?"

She was beginning to lose it. If only she knew that she needed to take a chill pill or someone that would speak sense into her head.

She always felt the world revolved around her and it didn't.

"Okay, Qing Mei you need to be calm now. We need him. He must have a pretty good reason why he is doing all this right?"

Taking a breather, she closed her eyes and just went on YouTube to watch calming and relaxing videos.

On the other hand, while she was busy having a feat, Hao Huizhong was busy doing is own things. He had a drink with some of his not so close friends when her call came in.

He could have excused himself and answered the call but intentionally left her hanging to punish her for what she did to him.

He needed to let her know that he wouldn't be at her beck and call as before. If she needed a puppet then she should go get Ye Cheng as her puppet, he thought.

It was time to prove to her his worth.

'It seems the bitch is in heat,' he cursed within himself. 'Hey Huizhong, you love her so stop with that attitude,' he scolded himself mentally.

'I know but sometimes she behaves like one. How come she got this spoilt? Anyways, no use crying over spilt milk What matters most now is that she wants me. I wonder what she needs me for though? Even the old man, Chairman Zhang hasn't called yet. Okay, let's play it first and see.'

With his thoughts settled, he ignored her call and placed the phone down.

The second time when she called, even his friends were forced to look at him. It wasn't like him to leave a call unanswered and when they peered at the phone screen they were shocked to see the caller he well dutifully ignored.

Although they were not all that close, on one occasion when they hung out together and she called him, they were once again shocked by how quickly he reacted to the call and answered.

Even when they were making jest of him about it, he hushed them and excused himself to take her call. novelenglish.net . Fire(.)nᴇt

Now, not only was he ignoring her, he leaned in, picked his phone and turned it around to silent the call.

"Wow!" The first guy, Wen Yan said in astonishment.

"Huizhong!" Another young man at his left spoke up.

"To see the one and only Tai Hua speechless, no, please Hao Huizhong you have done it again."

"And what have I done again, Bolin Choi?" Hao Huizhong questioned.

"Everything," all three chorused.

He frowned, his brows furrowing into a deep v in between his forehead. "What is with you guys. I am simply busy and didn't take her call, so what is all this ruckus about?"

"I don't know, you tell me," Tai Hua refuted.

"What is that? Of course, you know."

"Do not. I am surprised though that you are suddenly busy. What happened that you are using us as an excuse to ignore your mistress or beauty?"

"Nothing."

"Guys, you hear that?"

They stared at each other and before he knew what was going on, burst into an uproar of laughter.
