Mr Indifferent CEO, Be Careful With My Heart

********

CHAPTER 108

Moments later, he stopped and broke the kiss so they could both catch their breaths.

Due to the weakness in her knees and how light-headed she felt, Bai Qing Mei fell on his body, leaning her weight into him.

"I missed you," she confessed once more.

Ye Cheng closed his eyes and held her close. It really dawned on him that she was here and standing with him.

She was no longer dead. All his nightmares and sleepless nights would finally stop. No longer would he be pained when her memory came rushing into his mind.

But even at that and with everything seeming plausible, things were still a bit strange to Ye Cheng. He was happy that she was alive, alright but then how come? He recalled seeing her die, right?

'How is it possible that she is right here in my arms?'

Luckily for Ye Cheng, he was not one to let his emotions cloud his judgment and he needed to know how she escaped it all.

He pulled her from his embrace and smiled brightly at her. "Come, let us seat and talk."

"About what?" Bai Qing Mei asked as she hesitated to move from where she was standing.

"Nothing much, I just want to know how you are doing."

"I am fine as you can see."

"Yes."

Not minding her reluctance, Ye cheng pulled her towards one of the seats in front of his table and sat down on the second seat, facing hers.

"Please, sit down, Mei."

"You want to ruin my mood with that incident. I do not want to recall anything right now."

"I am sorry, but I deserve to know. I was worried and sad, you know."

"Fine but after now, no more talking about it, okay?"

Ye Cheng nodded his head to show his understanding and waited for her to sit down first and relax.

Bai Qing Mei finally sat down and heaved a deep sigh while closing her eyes then opened them to look into his eyes.

"That day was the most devastating day of my life." Bai Qing Mei started, her eyes suddenly became dull and full of dread as she thought about what happened.

"I was so scared and when I saw them beating you, my heart was thorn in shreds at that moment. I watched as you bore the pain just for me. Ye Cheng, I love you so much."

Ye Cheng's face still remained calm with no hint of emotion except for the little tug of his lips to the side to show a side smile 😏 but never did he interrupt her story.

"It was even more terrible when that scoundrel activated the bomb. I could feel my heart jump into my mouth as I saw my life flash before my very eyes. I was scared Ye Cheng, so scared."

"But I couldn't lose it to save you."

"True. And then before the yacht was about to explode, a part of the yacht broke off and hit you on your head. Amd that was when you fell off and into the water."

Whoa!

Yre Cheng could not believe what he was hearing all of a sudden,

She meant to tell him now that what he thought had transpired never occurred.

"Hold on a minute." He Cheng raised both hands in front of him to stop her.

"Ye Cheng, I know this is very hard foe you to accept right now but I am telling you the truth."

"But, I... "

Ye Cheng's lips hung agape as he watched the Bai Qing Mei with unbelieving eyes.

Just how could she say that was what happened?

"Cheng. Do ulyou think I am making this up?" Bai Qing Mei asked, her face dropping with sadness as she waited for his answer.

"No, Mei. That is not what I am saying at all. I am just confused."

"About what? You asked that I explained and here I am doing so and you are still confused?"

"No, no. I am sorry. That is not what I meant by that. I believe you. Please continue your story."

She took in a deep breath to clear her mind before continuing from where she had stopped.

"Okay. Immediately you fell into the water, I was left all alone but luckily for me, one path of the yacht exploded again and hit the chair I was one, causing it to break and that was when I could manage to free myself from the chair, still being tied to the upper part."

"Okay but the bomb was about going off."

"Yes, Cheng but then, that was not the real bomb. It was a fake. The real one was somewhere else in the yacht. They only used that to scare you to do their bidding."

"Those damn bastards!" Ye Cheng clenched his fiat so tight and hit his table.

He could not believe they played him that way.

"Relax Cheng. I am alright now. Their plan failed. Anyways, as I managed to get up, and staggered the edge in hopes to get anyone who could help, that was when the real bomb exploded and the yacht went up in flames. I was lucky to have been pushed by the force and thrown into the water as well. It was then that divers came rushing to see of anyone was there and survived the incident and that was how I survived and was rushed to the hospital, Cheng."

"I am thankful you survived it. You really went through a horrid experience."

"Yes. I thought you had died as well when they said they did not see your body and even asked someone to check the company but there wasn't any news about you. So I thought I should better stay hidden for now, lest my kidnappers come for me as well but when I saw the news yesterday, imagine the shock I got that you were still alive."

"Yes. I am sorry, I didn't search for you. I am sorry dear. I really had thought you died."

"It is okay, Cheng. I understand. There was no way you could have known. I am very happy to see you."

"Same here. Same here."

Bai Qing Mei smiled at him and pushed to the edge of her seat then placed a kiss on his lips.

"Now enough about that depressing incident. Let's talk about you."

"Me?" Ye Cheng was slight taken aback by what she said.

What did she need with him? What was there to talk to him about?

Watching his slight hesitation, Bai Qing Mei smiled and got up, then moved between his legs and sat down on his lap.

"Okay, I just want to be in your arms."
