CHAPTER 590
"What is the matter babe?"
"Who called?" She asked, changing the topic.
"Umm doesn't matter."
"Just tell me," she probed further. Knowning him, nothing mattered anymore ither than to find out what was wrong with her and return her smile back to her face.
"Well it was mum. It turns out that they 've been there since thirty minutes ago."
"Thirty minutes ago? Did you not tell them the correct time for the hang out?"
"Well, let's just say I did… not really. I was still sleepy eyed. And on a second thought, I said 9:30 rather than 10 am."
"Ye Cheng!"
"Sorry babe. Who would have thought that tehey would be this early?"
"Seriously now!"
"I'm sorry. The mistake has been made already. Anyways that is not the problem. I told them we would be on our way now. In a matter of ten we should be with them."
"I'm sorry. I cannot go with you Ye Cheng."
"Why? Yes your mood changed. What is bothering my queen?"
"I'm sorry honey but I have to go," Li Jing repeated.
"Go? Where? Why?"
"Umm long story but something happened at the office and my presence is needed there."
"Office? This si Saturday!"
"Apparently some persons are causing trouble there."
"Can't the security men handle it?"
"Not really. It is about ownership something. I would go check up on things and call the cops with me on my way."
"Oh, I see. Okay then get in I would go with you." Without waiting for her reply he was akready moving towards the stairs leading down to where the black jeep was packed and ready to take them for their outing.
"Umm, honey, wait."
"Any problem dear?" Ye Cheng asked as he turned around to see her.
"Umm not really it is jus that," she let out a sigh first. "You really do not need to come with me."
"And why is that?"
"Because, it is not your problem."
"Umm, last I recall, we are one. My wife's problem is mine and mine, yours."
"I know honey but this is different."
"How so? You are most likely going to meet thugs. I need to be there."
"No dear. That is why I have the cops coming."
"Cops, pff please."
"Ye Cheng… Besides, gramps and mum are waiting for us. One of us needs to show up. It wouldn't make sense if we go missing together."
"My body guards would go with us if you are scared and we would tend to this issue quick and go meet them."
"No need dear. Let me fix it."
"No. You know I can just call and have someone take care of the mess."
"I know but this seems a little more than what it looks like. Just trust me. I can handle this. Believe me."
"But Li Jing."
"Trust me hin. I just need at least thirty minutes and I would return to meet you guys. Let's not allow anything ruin our outing, okay?"
"Fine. Thirty minutes is all I give you or I might have to actually rush there myself."
"There would be no need. Now I must hurry. I woul take my car so you need not go the opposite direction because of me and delay your meeting."
"Fine. On no account are you to drive yourself. Go with the other car and let two of my men follow you."
She was about refusing when he glared at her, causing her to swallow up her words. Seeing tahts eh was becoming the obedient lovely girl he knew, he walked back up to meet her and held her cheeks in his hands.
A second later, he already his lips pressed against hers begging for entrance.
As though sensing it, Li Jing let her eyes drop close and welcome his kiss with every fibre in her.
For some seconds they remained there sharing each other's kiss and enjoying the moment till he pulled away and smiled ta her.
"Thirty minutes is all you get babe. Thirty minutes."
"Noted."
"Alright, get going now so you can come back to me. I would go meet mum and granddad."
"Alright. Thanks. Love you baby."
"Love you most." He titled her head down a bit and then placed a chaste kiss on her forehead before releasing her and leading her towards the second car in which his body guards had already gotten ready.
Once she got close, the car doors were opened to receive her. She cast one last look at him before pushing in and ready to go.
Ye Cheng did not leave immediately and waited until the car left before he entered his and his men drove out of the vicinity to their outing venue."

As soon as Li Jing arrived at their new branch for her grand father's company, she highlighted from the car and walked majestically towards the annoying small nuisance that were there.
"Excuse me, what is going on here?"
The second her office assistant saw her, she rushed up to meet with Li Jing on her way and bowed her head in respect to. "Welcome ma. This is the problem I was talking about."
"I see. Relax. I am here now. She turned around swiftly on her heels when she got to front of the building.
And like a soaring queen, a lovely phoenix, she glared dagges at the men who were ruining her day already.
"What do you want?"
"She must be Li Jing."
"I bet she is the owner here. We need to get what we want or we attack."
Soon the murmuring between them became mire intense and annoying that all Li Jing could think of doing was to slap some sense into their heads.
'How could this bunch of idiots think they can come lay claim to my company.' Li Jing thought within her.
It was obvious they were hired just to come and disturb her and the mere thought, made her smile.
"Hey woman, who are you? We do not want to talk to anyone other than the owner, Li Jing."
"Bring out that bloody wench let her come and answer to me."
