Chapter 31: I Want To Share My Life With You

Xu Mey spent an hour with Li Qiao after eating. Recalling Ye Jie's phone call, she decided to take leave.

When she walked out, she thought of making a quick stop at Ms. Yu Kim's office. Yu Kim, was a Korean-Chinese with shoulder-length black hair, a small delicate face, and an average height.

She stood up as Xu Mey opened the door to her office. She pulled down her glasses and smiled at Xu Mey.

"You're leaving?" Yu Kim asked politely.

"Yup... Since you didn't give me any time, I decided to take my leave." Xu Mey replied accusingly.

Yu Kim smiled. "I had a pile of work to sort out. Sorry about it. How about I treat you to hotpot someday?"

"You'll cook yourself?" Xu Mey asked with anticipation.

"Yes, I'll cook myself."

"Okay. I'll let it pass this time." Xu Mey hid her excitement. "You didn't go home for vacations?" Xu Mey asked after an instant of hesitation.

Yu Kim looked at the beautiful lady before her with an effort to keep her smile. "Let's not talk about it." Xu Mey nodded sensing her sadness and said her goodbye with a hug.

Xu Mey knew Yu Kim for almost 15 years. Yu Kim, the only heiress of a conglomerate. She left home back when Li Qiao decided to start his own business. Xu Mey called her a silly girl. And she indeed was a silly girl. A girl who left her loving father's protective luxury nest just so she could support Li Qiao on his way to the pinnacle of success.

With her qualifications, she could have worked in any department but she still decided to be his personal assistant. She was familiar with Li Qiao more than his own mother. When Li Qiao asked her why she wanted to work with him back then, she only replied with "Because I believe in you and I want to be a part of your success." 'And I want to share your life with you.' She left the last words unsaid.

Xu Mey still couldn't figure out whether Li Qiao was ignorant about her feelings or was he acting to be ignorant?

Xu Mey happily strolled up to the elevator and got in. Song Yuling sauntered in the elevator right behind her. Xu Mey didn't want to pay any attention to her presence. So, she gave her phone unnecessary attention.

"I heard about what happened today," Song Yuling started the conversation aking her arch a brow. "Yana Mo is arrogant but she's a good actress. Can't you ask President Li to forgive her this time?"

"Why should I?" Xu Mey was bored.

"Because he'll only listen to you. Just like he listened to you when he gave me a second chance back then. And my mistake was far worse than hers."

"I have no interest in saying anything because he won't listen." Xu Mey was counting seconds to get out of the elevator.

"So, you're gonna be exactly like that when he broke our relationship?"

"Relationship?" Xu Mey gave her a scornful laugh. "You asked me to save your dreams back then and I did that. If you'd have asked me to save your relationship, I'd done that." Song Yuling's glistening eyes stared at Xu Mey's black orbs. "You're the person who can't even give up her dream for him even when you claim to love him. I believe, the person beside him who's even ready to lose her life for him is a lot better than you."

The elevator door opened and Xu Mey walked out. She halted after a few steps and without turning back, she said, "Longest love is not an achievement you should be proud of." Without sparing a glance her way, Xu Mey walked away.
