Coming down from the staircase, Li Jing trailed her fingers down the hand rail as she walked. All her mind had been so occup8ed imagining and thinking of who thos visitor that she failed to name, was?

Would it have been Yin Lifen or her mother-in-law or her grandfather?

No. She knew it was neither else her maid, Su Meng would have revealed it. And for her not doing so, it was obvious she had no idea.

Y the time she got down the stairs, she met Su men’s standing not so far from the living room with both hands in front of her as she waited patiently for both the guest and her madam for assistance or instructions.

Click! Click!

.....

The sound of her shoes hitting the marble tiles sounded more th a it had done before, making Su among wonder if her madam had pulled them off before getting to where she was or she simply had been too light on her feet that she did not hear her coming.

“Madam.”

“It is alright. I wou,d take it from here, just get us some snacks would you?”

“Yes ma’am.”

the young girl turned around and exited the living room, leaving Li Jing to her visitor. apAll these while her visitor did not say anything when he heard the so7nd of her heels click against the tile which she intentionally did to garner his attention and now that she spoke, he still did not budge until Su Meng left them.

Now she had a good glimpse of the back of his hair, she did not need a second telling on who it was.

“Tang...” At the same time, he fianally turned on his seat to face her, a pleasant smile on his face one wfolled with joy and relief. “Zixin.”

“Hello dear.”

Without a second thought to it, Li Jing took the first step in his direction as he stood up, getting ready to properly greet her. However before his hands could do their usual shake, Li Jing spread her hands up and wide as she engulfed him in a warm hug.

“Zixin... I missed you,” she confessed wholeheartedly.

His eyes widened from her actions. He had least expected her to do that just now. He was going for a shake out of respect for their relationship and did not want her feeling uncomfortable since she was married to the man she loved now but surprisingly, Li Jing was the one who did what he dared not do.

“Hahhaa,” a soft giggle fell off her mouth as she tightened her hold on him a new after about a minute, she finally calmed down and pulled back from his shoulders to look at him.

“It’s been what, Zixin? Ages?”

“A few months, about a month I would say. Not that long.”

“To you maybe but to me it is.”

“Of course it felt long. You know it has been hard. I do not want my friendship with you to affect your marriage. I can tell Ye Cheng is a jealous bunch.”

“He sure is alright because he knows just how it was before he could get me,” Li Jing teased her hubby openly while laughing. “Please, do take your seat.”

They both sat down, before she resumed talking. “Wow.”

“Well, I guess you cannot blame him. I would be jealous myself if I was the one that got you. You are very beautiful and intelligent might I add plus you know how to cooks, yiua re well mannered, you are everything and innocently cute. I love that, your innocence but for the business world, you need to toughen up a bit lest people ride on you.”

“Hmm, a compliment just turned into a sci, ding. As expected from my good friend, Tang Zixin. The conglomerate of the proud Tang family.”

“Stop that. You know what I mean.” He smiled some more, making him look more dashing than he already was.

‘Sigh... Why didn’t Yin Lifen fall for him? He is such a hottie. Well, the heart wants what it wants. I cannot blame her and then Tang Zixin was so hooke on his love for me. He doesn’t seem like on to just easily move on and I admire him. His love was true.’

The stared at him, the more thoughts about him filled her mind and he could only wonder what she was thinking about.

“Umm, Jing. Hey Jing,” he snapped in hfingersin front of her, causing her to jump a bit on her seat. “Better, you spaced out there for a moment.”

“I did?”

“Yes silly. Anyways, how are you faring? I heard about your accident and came over.”

As soon as he finished his words, her eyes widened, realization finally dawning on her. If she recalled correctly, the last time they had spoke he went on a business trip, so did that mean he came there and rushed to her place?

Sensing her slight worry, Tang Zixin pushed himself out of his seat a bit and started into her confused eyes.

“I had to come as soon as I heard the news.”

“You were on your trip Tang. And if I recall correctly, you shouldn’t be done even by now. You are to finish with your business trip hmm...” she calculated in her mind an then looked at him. “Within the next three days. Zixin.”

She had a disapproving look with the way her nose was scrunched up at his and her eyes narrowed even more, making her look li, e a cute vixen.

“Hey, I canceled, so what? You are more important to me than a meeting.”

“It would have been nice if I could return this care but you know I can’t. I love you like a brother and I cherish you. It’s only Ye Cheng I want.”

“I never said anything about you returning anything to me. I cherish you too and I have long accepted that Ye Cheng won you and I lost. But it does not change the fact that I adore you and would always put you first.”

“That has to stop, Zixin. You would get married someday.”

“Maybe.”

0_0

“Maybe what, Zixin? Tsk, for a big brother, you are getting naughty. You need to continue your family name.”

“I can adopt,” he suggested, well though his word sounded that way, she could tell he was adamant and wanted no woman in his life.

“YounRe not serious.”

“I am. I would dote on your kids rather if you prefer that one.”

That was it, Li Jing had no choice but to face palm herself at his absurd words.

“Why did you ever...”

“Ever what? Meet you?” A small chuckle escaped his lips and he wished she was close by so he could flick his finger against her forehead. “Silly, grandma Jiaye made is so. She picked you for me and hoped we would marry. It was her one of her last wishes.”

“She did?”

“Yup. Unfortunately, I was too busy to visit when you were around her and...oh well, we know what happened. A handsome young man came into your life right after we met an dyiu followed him rather than coming to me for help.”

“Sigh, I guess grandma didn’t tell you much about me, I did not like receiving help from people. It made it seem like my good was for sale or something. I did why needed to be done and without wanting a payback.”

“Which was why she asked me to give ytou he house and the money.”

Her eyes crimes with joy as she recalled something.

“Funny enough, I still haven’t touched that moment till now.”

“You are kidding right?”

“No. Hehhee anyways, thanks to you and Cheng, I had a better life.”

“Yeah and I lost and he won.”

“Please stop being like this,” Li Jing eyes held a certain sadness. She did not want to feel pity as he did not deserve that but she expected him to be happy one way or another.

Not like she could complain much, considering when she was not with Ye Cheng she was a bit miserable with love and missing him so much.

So she knew how it felt to love someone and not be loved in return.

“You are the one feeling like I am not okay. I am and so here I am as your big bro. Now, from what I heard with the series of accidents, there is no way this was a coincidence.”

“Yes, you are right but do not worry, Cheng took care of it.”

“Better. Well, I am around now. My business meeting has been postponed.”

She let out a soft sigh and looked at him apologetically. “I am truly sorry you had to go through that because of me.”

“Nonsense. Well, I pulled some strings and had them move the meeting’s location to here, Star City in a week. So I would be around for a long time. Let me see the demon that would try to hurt you next.”

She smiled at him. Now he was acting so much like a big brother and a possessive Ye Cheng of before. Usually he was the calm one.

“What can I say, thanks Zixin.”
