Chapter 129 - Trouble In The Bar 2
********
CHAPTER 129
His actions had shocked everyone, particularly Li Jing who was least expecting he would do such a thing.
She did not close her eyes nor return his kiss but stood there with eyes unblinking as she watched as the seconds flew by with her heart beating wildly against her chest.
BADUM! BADUM!
She could hear its heavy beats loud against her eardrums and her mind became focused on that rather than the fact that she was just kissed.
After some time, Ye Cheng broke the kiss and smiled at her. She blinked once and after that, she just stared wide eyes at him.
She was least expecting for such a thing to happen s she did not know how to react.
Meanwhile, while they were having their moment, Luo Jinhai who was standing there, watching the whole thing unravel before his eyes.
"Ye Cheng!"
Ye Cheng pulled his eyes away from Li Jing and shifted them to Luo Jinhai who was still perplexed. "What is the meaning of this?"
���Are you blind or do you want me to do it again?"
"Why you!"
"Stop it, both of you." Li Jing quickly intervened before things got out of hand.
"Li Jing, whose side are you on?"
"Nobody's. I am on nobody's side."
"Then how can you stand for it and just let him kiss you?" Luo Jinhai asked. His hurt was clear and obvious from his words and voice.
Jun Tai Hua who was watching the whole episode felt sad for his friend. He had gotten it right, his friend was just too slow to go for what he wanted and now, she was about to be stolen from him if not already stolen.
The thought this because he watched the whole thing closely and noticed that when Ye Cheng had kissed Li Jing, she did not return his kiss or make any attempt to even push him off or something.
There was simply no reaction and that to him could only mean one thing. Li Jing and Ye Cheng had nothing going on between them but strictly work.
Even though that was something that he should be happy for fr his friend, he just couldn't bring himself to do it.
Just because nothing was going on now, did not, mean nothing could go on later. For crying out loud, Ye Cheng just kissed her. That spoke volumes already.
"Is that how you are? Are you telling me that you like him and prefer him?"
"Luo Jinhai, I think I have the right to allow anybody to kiss me and you do not get to have a say about it like you are my dad neither do you get to judge me about it nor anybody else at that."
Seeing the way his words had annoyed her, Luo Jinhai quickly changed his words and apologized to her.
"Please Li Jing. I am sorry. I did not mean it that way."
'Please, not know, Luo Jinhai, not now. We would talk later. Kindly excuse me."
Just like that, she helped Ye Cheng out of the bar but unknown to her, someone took the pictures of Ye Cheng kissing her and she did not know.
Luckily for her, she had called Hua Duyi before getting there so when they got out he was waiting with the car he normally drove to pick her, outside the restaurant.
"Ma'am, Young master."
"Please take him home," Li Jing instructed.
"And what about you, Miss Li?" Hua Duyi asked her as he helped her hold Ye Cheng.
"I would umm. I do not know. I just need to think."
"Please, young master would frown when he finds out. Kindly come with us. I would drop you off first before taking him home."
"No need for that. I am good."
"You are going nowhere."
Ye Cheng's voice suddenly rang out, pulling their attention to him and making them know that he was still very much okay and could hear their conversation.
Li Jing gulped loudly and shifted her gaze to him. "He needs to get you home first so you can rest. I would be fine."
"Stop talking and get in the car, Li Jing. I am not drunk."
Li Jing rolled her eyes at his obvious and sorry attempt to dispute the fact that he was very tipsy. 'That's what they all say.' She said internally.
"Fine. I would come along."
"Good."
Hua Duyi went ahead to open the door for Ye Cheng and Li Jing to get in before closing the door and rushing t the driver's seat.
Ye Cheng did nit want her going alone of which he knew her real reason was that she did not feel comfortable being with him after he just kissed her without her permission.
Personally he did not even know what had come over him in the first place. He knew he just wanted to prove to Luo Jinhai that he could take her from him if he wanted to and how to talk to Li Jing.
All their assumptions were wrong and it was getting on his nerves. For crying out loud, he wished one of them would just stop to think things through and not let their jealousy overrule their judgment about her so easily.
Yet they claimed they loved her but what they say is the exact opposite.
'Tsk, naughty men.' Ye Cheng remarked in his mind.
On the other hand, Li Jing did not want to go with him because her mind felt like it was in shambles right now.
One minute she was assisting him and the next, his soft lips were pressed against hers. She was feeling bad for Luo Jinhai as she knew since that he may be having feelings for her but since he never voiced it out, she threw it to the back of her mind.
But watching him stand there and watch as someone else claimed her lips, she could understand his pain. She felt the same when she caught her boyfriend and sister fucking each other to stupor.
Then again he did not have the right to speak that way to her and that was what had her pissed off. Slowly she peeled her eyes off the road and trailed them to Ye Cheng who had his head leaned back against the headrest with both eyes closed.
"Stop staring."
