19.77% Mr. CEO Loves The Devilish Beauty / Chapter 85: The Dream We Live

Capítulo 85: The Dream We Live

While the phone call left Ye Jie in a bigger dilemma however he didn't know why Xu Mey's Sensei called in the first place? It was not like that person threatened Ye Jie to treat Xu Mey well or anything. Instead, he just advised him to be careful.

'How powerful he could possibly be to know so much about me? I didn't leave a single trace behind.' These were Ye Jie's thoughts.

Meanwhile, Xu Mey was in a debate with herself. "I should give him a surprise." She walked towards her motorbike while spinning the keychain on her index finger.

"What if he minds seeing me at his office? I can't just go without notifying." She stopped in her track.

"But if I informed him, it won't be a surprise anymore." She groans as she ruffled her own hair.

"I should just go home alone." She climbed on her motorbike with this decision in mind.

After about 45 mins, she was parking her bike right in the parking lot of Ye Enterprises. She was planning on going straight home. But at the juncture when she was supposed to take the left turn, she took the right turn.

"It's all this motorbike' fault… I was definitely not gonna come here." She was in denial.

Settling her helmet hair, she sashayed to the lobby where she was greeted by a pretty girl who looked to be in her early twenties. "How may I help you, Miss?" The receptionist asked Xu Mey with a pleasant tone and a polite smile.

"I want to see Mr. Ye Jie." Xu Mey replied carefully choosing her words.

The young girl gave Xu Mey a once over before asking, "Do you have an appointment?"

"No… I don't, " Xu Mey replied honestly. "Why don't you just check if he's free or not?"

The receptionist made a call to the top floor to Ye Jie's receptionist. "There is a lady here to see the CEO." She heard quietly for a minute before turning to Xu Mey, "Miss. Our CEO is a bit busy today and he asked not to let anyone disturb him. Why don't you tell me your name and wait over there?" The receptionist politely suggested.

Xu Mey found her behavior very normal. Her own company employees would have done the same. So, she politely told her name and turned to walk towards the waiting area.

At this time, Qi Guan, Ye Jie's personal assistant's gaze caught Xu Mey's figure and was startled for a second. He thought he was hallucinating. If their Young Mistress was supposed to come then CEO would have gotten people to welcome her. But when he looked closely, he realized it was Xu Mey indeed.

He briskly walked up to her side and called her politely. "Young Mistress Xu!"

Xu Mey turned her head letting her ponytail bounce with her movement. "What brought you here?" He immediately bit his own tongue for asking such a ridiculous question. "I mean… Does the CEO know that you're visiting?"

Xu Mey smiled politely. "I wanted to surprise him. But the receptionist said he is quite busy. So I decided to wait here."

Qi Guan glared at the receptionist making her shrink her body. "Young Mistress doesn't have to wait here. I'll accompany you to the CEO's office." Xu Mey pursed her lips and nodded after thinking about it.

Qi Guan took her to the top floor in the private elevator. "Mr. Ye said that no one is allowed to see him at this time." The receptionist in the hallway told Qi Guan as she saw him taking Xu Mey to the office.

"Boss won't mind her presence. You don't have to worry." Qi Guan replied without stopping or turning to her. The receptionist frowned while glaring at Xu Mey.

Xu Mey had already seen the way that receptionist was dressed like she was ready to seduce anyone. With her hair falling to her shoulders and that bright red lipstick on her formal but body fitted dress that allowed to see her curvy body, she was hard to resist.

"Young Mistress, you can go inside yourself." Qi Guan said as he stood beside the door not daring to knock.

Xu Mey took a deep breath, curled her fingers and knocked lightly on the door. After hearing a low familiar voice, she opened the door and walked in.

"Did you bring the financial report? Give it to me." Ye Jie wasn't looking up. With his head still on the file before him, he stretched his arm to ask for the file.

Xu Mey wasn't paying attention to his words. Her eyes were focused on his half exposed arms with the veins bulging out. Frustrated by the wait, Ye Jie shook his hand to ask for the file and in return, he felt a soft touch on his calloused hands.

An electric wave ran through his body making him abruptly raise his head. There she stood with her one hand in his big ones and the other hand in her pants.

Ye Jie was more than just surprised at the moment. He looked at her in disbelief and rubbed his eyes with his free hand. But Xu Mey was still there when he opened his eyes again. "You! What brought my cherry wife to my office?" He managed to ask.

Xu Mey languidly took a seat at the chair and said, "My motorbike brought me here. I definitely didn't want to give you a ride." Xu Mey lied straight to his face making him chuckle softly.

"Of course… It's all your motorbike's fault. My cherry wife would never be at fault." Ye Jie already figured that she came to pick him up and that was enough to make his dampened mood to bloom again.

"How much work do you still have?" She asked crossing her legs elegantly.

"I have a bit of extra work. Why don't you go to that room and rest for a while?" Ye Jie suggested pointing at the small room behind him.

Xu Mey was planning on saying no but decided to take some rest. She walked to the room and a saw a round bed in the middle of the room. It wasn't a very small room but it was not that spacious either. There were only a bed and a closet in the room and nothing else.

Xu Mey was about to lay down on the bed when her eyes fell on the painting facing the bed. Xu Mey was stunned to see that painting. It was her painting which Wu Wang made when she started her company.

That day, she was really happy. It was the day, her dream was not just her dream but a reality. She only taught herself one thing then; The dream we dream should be the dream we live. Otherwise, the dream will lose its value.

Capítulo 86: The Expert's Opinion

She stared at the painting for a while before sitting on the bed and took out her phone to play games. Her mind was wondering how did Ye Jie got the painting from Wu Wang? Wu Wang didn't even give her this painting when she asked for it. She was distracted because of the painting and soon got bored. She decided to give Ye Jie some company.

"Can't sleep?" He asked as he felt her presence.

"Yup!" She replied. She plopped down on the chair and supported her elbows on the table to hold her chin. She kept looking at his handsome face. Sometimes, he frowned looking at the files or the computer screen and sometimes he just shook his head in frustration. "If you need some help, you can ask me. I won't mind." Xu Mey offered politely.

Ye Jie looked at her sincere eyes. "There is a bid for a government project in a month. I have to deal with that and Ye Jun was supposed to deal with e-sports tournament. But now, Ye Jun can't find a single Strategic Planning Manager. And Strategies are crucial in e-sports." Ye Jie replied.

Xu Mey nodded in understanding. She was quiet for a while before speaking, "Have you ever heard of Murong Yi?"

Ye Jie thought about it. "Yes… I think I have… He was a very popular gamer back in the days but now he's nowhere to be found."

"He's in Tokyo…" Xu Mey replied. Seeing the expression of Ye Jie she explained. "He loves online games. And what better place than Tokyo? Also, an acquaintance of mine told me about it. I'm a huge fan that's why."

"Ohh…" Ye Jie thought about her suggestion. Xu Mey's idea wasn't bad. Murong Yi was famous for his strategies when he was a player. He was an experienced person. He had to make him join their business. But how? Suddenly a beautiful face popped up in his mind.

"You need to look for someone who could convince Murong Yi." After a pause, "Do you have anyone in mind?"

"I do… But I doubt she'll help…" Ye Jie replied without thinking. Xu Mey arched her brows. He cleared his throat and replied. "She's a childhood friend. She can fix anything. Except for her own brain."

"Why don't you take a chance with her then?" Xu Mey was curious but denied firmly to herself.

"I should…" Ye Jie replied and dialed a number in his phone right before Xu Mey. The call connected in no time.

"Ah Jie?" A masculine voice called out. "Is everything okay?"

"Yeah… I just want your help to contact Ru'er…" Ye Jie replied.

"Hmm… Why don't you do it yourself?" The other voice asked.

"She and I are at odds."

Ye Jie heard a laugh. "When was the last time you both weren't at odds? Just call her yourself." Ye Jie thought about it for a bit and replied with, "En".

He looked at Xu Mey who was spinning a stone paperweight with ease. " You're at odds with a childhood friend?"

Ye Jie's lips curled up a bit. "We always had conflicts but this time it dragged on for a long time."

"Why?" Xu Mey stopped spinning the paperweight as she asked.

Ye Jie sighed. "Because she was completely against my ex for some reason."

Xu Mey nodded. "But if she's a friend, I don't think she'll hold the grudge."

Ye Jie had to agree with that. Even though Ru'er was impulsive but she never held any grudge for people she cared about.

After much contemplation, he dialed another number and kept the phone on speaker this time.

"Hello!" A groggy deep voice replied which shook both Xu Mey and Ye Jie.

"Ru?" Ye Jie asked with uncertainty.

They heard some shuffling on the other side. "Jie Ge-Ge!" The voice turned into a fruity feminine one brimming with excitement. "How can I help you?"

"Why do you think I need something?"

"Isn't it obvious. Otherwise, you wouldn't have woke me up at 3 in the morning. Well, I know its still 7:30 there but here it is only 3 o'clock." The other voice was still a bit hoarse giving Xu Mey a very familiar feeling.

"Find someone for me, " Ye Jie got straight to point throwing formalities out the window.

"Send me his details." The call disconnected.

Ye Jie typed an email and sent it to her. "Let's go home." Ye Jie said to Xu Mey who was still in a daze. The earlier voice reminded her of someone but who?

She shook her head and stood up. Ye Jie took his jacket draped on the chair and put it on. "Shall we?" He offered his hand to Xu Mey. Seeing the extended hand in front of her, she was confused. But she took his hand anyway, with the excuse that his warm hands will help her cold ones to get better.

Hand in hand they walked through the hallway where the receptionist couldn't help but glare at Xu Mey with hatred. As they walked inside the elevator, Xu Mey said, "Your receptionist is going all the way to make you notice her."

"Are you jealous?" Ye Jie asked with amusement.

"Jealous? Of her?" Xu Mey snorted. "Leaving this face, " She pointed at her own face. "If you went for that plastic face, " She made a gesture to point at the receptionist. "Then I really doubt your intelligence."

Ye Jie burst out laughing. "I didn't know you were a narcissist…"

"Well, I don't need others compliment when I have the experts opinions." She replied with ease and calm.

"Expert?" Ye Jie frowned.

"Me…" She raised her chin as if to challenge him to deny it. "We all need an expert and experts are ourselves but we often neglect this expert."

Ye Jie was pleased with her reply. As Xu Mey passed Ye Jie a helmet, she asked, "Can you ride a bike?"

"Yes, I can." Ye Jie replied proudly.

Xu Mey threw the keys to him which he caught with ease. "Then drive." She said.

Ye Jie was stunned beyond belief. Li Qiao obviously told him that Xu Mey doesn't like people even touching her motorbike much less drive it.

But Ye Jie didn't question and climbed in the bike after Xu Mey settled up, he started the bike as they started their journey.

Xu Mey's hands were not holding anything at first but when Ye Jie deliberately made the motorbike jump a bit, she had to hold his waist. Ye Jie was more than pleased with this outcome.

It was another small but steady step in their relationship. Whether the step was in her life or heart, Ye Jie had to figure that out.
