Capítulo 27: I Like To See Her Smile
Upon perceiving a certain part of Ye Jie's statement, Ye Jun cursed out loud, "F*ck!"
Now, it was his turn to glare at his elder brother. "'Love what you have before life teaches you to love what you lost'?" He repeated Ye Jie's word. "Seriously, bro?"
"What?" Ye Jie still had no clue about what Ye Jun was trying to imply.
"Bro were you thinking about... Lu Yuhan when you said that?" Ye Jun hesitated before saying Ye Jie's ex's name.
Ye Jie puckered his lips in irritation with a scowl on his face displaying his dissatisfaction. "No. Why would I be talking about someone, I have nothing to do with?"
"What were you implying then?" Ye Jun propped his face on his palms for support as he asked his brother with interest.
"I was talking about Xu Mey... I was trying to imply that she should try to accept me in her life before its too late. I wanted her to accept the changes in her life not because it's essential. Instead, because the change could bring happiness in her life. I like to see her smile but she doesn't smile that often."
Ye Jun didn't know whether to cry or laugh at his words. The thought was beautiful but his brother was rather inexperienced with words and feelings. He only had a single girlfriend in his whole life and that too was their childhood friend. Ye Jun sighed at his brother's witless way of saying things.
Such a beautiful thought and he must have given the impression of thinking about his ex in front of sis-in-law. That would explain the cold behavior. As I said, it had to be my brother's fault.
"Bro, do you realize what you did wrong?"
"I gave her the impression that I was talking about Yuhan, right?" There was hesitation in his husky voice. Seeing his younger brother's head nodding like a rattle, Ye Jie wanted to bang his head against a wall. But chose to use his hand instead. He knocked his head with his knuckles while shaking his head. "That explains it."
I wanted her to be at ease and I'm the one who made her uncomfortable. I needed her to see my house as hers and my words must have made her feel like she's the other women in my life. Ugh! I'm really imprudent.
"Bro I know you don't love sis-in-law," Ye Jie glanced at his brother. "But I know you like her. The way I got interested in her. Your interest must have also been piqued. Am I right?"
"More or less... Yeah."
"Then try to be normal with her. I have an obvious idea about her that sis-in-law doesn't want an exaggerating relationship. She would like a normal one. A simple home where her husband would eat with her, talk with her and even in silence make her feel protected."
Ye Jie stood up and walked up to the glass wall looking over the skyscrapers. "How are we supposed to have a simple relationship, when I don't even have any clue about what she does for a living?"
Ye Jun came up to his brother and placed his hand on Ye Jie's shoulder. "If you give her a peaceful and trusting relationship, I believe she'll open up to you... Anyway, didn't you asked that friend of yours which had some mafia links?"
Ye Jie sighed loudly and rubbed his forehead. "Wayne said he found nothing." Ye Jun frowned at this statement. "According to Wayne's sources, it's like someone is pulling string in the background. There is no record of Xu Mey's life anywhere not even in her College."
"How's that possible bro? Hiding someone's whole life requires a lot of resources and only a few people are capable of that. And I don't think, there is anyone in her best friends who would be able to do that."
"You're right... Li Qiao, Lin Shen, He Jian, Wu Wang, and even Jun Li Na have a hand in hiding her life records but there is someone more powerful than them as well. That person won't even let mine or Wayne's people from seeing her school grades or whereabouts." Ye Jie was already frustrated over this unknown person behind the scenes.
Her friends said that she never fell in love with anyone. But that can't guarantee that someone else didn't fell for her. She is beautiful, simple and most of all real. She is flamboyant but not pretentious.
The only comforting thing at the moment for Ye Jie was; She was his wife, legally. All he had to do was take advantage of that plus point but apart from that, he wanted to be a pillar in her life. A pillar she could lean on.
To become a pillar of support in her life, Ye Jie decided to be her friend first. He needed to take one step at a time. He believed, friendship was a way to make their bond stronger.
But to be that pillar, he needed to know about her past. The reason for her conflict with the Xu family. And most of all, the reason for her being a meticulous person.
