CHAPTER 143

She felt her heart warm a bit by it and smiled to herself. If only he could see the smile that changed things.

The smile that warmed hearts, he sure would not be able to refuse her.

"So return and Hua Duyi would take you home." His voice pulled her back from her thoughts and her smile fell, dropping to a frown.

’What a killjoy.’ Li Jing thought. Just then a thought popped into her head. "But there is no need for that, I am with my friend. She would take me home."

"Li Jing." She could hear the warning tone in his voice as he called her name but she ignored it and still argued on.

"Ye Cheng, she is my friend and I haven’t seen her for some days now."

"Fine, Hua Duyi would fetch you two and take you home. I just do not want you going on your own and getting into trouble."

"No need for that, she came in her car. And for the record, I am not a trouble maker," she stated flatly.

"You really are adamant aren’t you?"

"I am not a kid anymore, you know." Ye Cheng said in a low voice.

"You know what I mean. Okay, fine, do what you please, just be careful and if you notice anything, call me right away. With what recently happened, I cannot guarantee they won’t act."

"I would be careful, thanks."

~Sunday Evening~

In Li Jing’s dressing room, Yin Lifen finished her last touch up on her friend’s face and stepped back to admire her work.

Li Jing looked particularly stunning in the simple makeup that Yin Lifen did for her. For her kind of person, she simply did not need so much makeup on as any little added further brought out her exquisite beauty.

"Li Jing." Li Jing raised her brow at her friend in earnest expectation of her next words but words failed to describe just how gorgeous she looked, leaving Yin Lifen speechless.

"Thanks, girlfriend." Li Jing gave Yin Lifen her best charming smile before looking away towards the mirror.

Her smile never dropped as she stared at her reflection and wondered when in her life she ever looked so beautiful.

She never had the opportunity to ever be beautiful like this so she did not know how it felt until Ye Cheng came along.

Her phone began to ring, pulling their attention that it was time for her to come out. She cast one look at her friend waiting for her go-ahead before she picked the phone up.

"Answer it," Yin Lifen urged. She was so happy to see her friend finally living the kind of life she deserved.

Li Jing smiled at her eagerness and then answered her call. "Hello."

"I’m outside."

"Hmm, be right there." Picking her purse, she walked over to hug Yin Lifen then bade her farewell. "Do not miss me long."

"I won’t baby girl. Enjoy your night."

"It is just going to be a business kind of dinner. Nothing to enjoy." Li Jing’s face dropped a little. She remembered the events of the last dinner and let out a soft sigh.

"Then stick with him and do not let something like before repeat itself. Enjoy your night and never be a pushover, Li Jing. Show them who rules."

"Hehe, sure. The old Li Jing is gone. This is the new me."

"Brave, fighting!"

"Are you sure you won’t be coming?" Li Jing asked her out of the blue. The truth was that the Yin Family got an invitation but Yin Lifen was not about to go and dine with the big sharks in the society.

She had rather that her friend go and enjoy a taste f the rich life. She on the other hand was bored with such. Most of her peers wouldn’t be there anyway as it was going to be mostly older folks and their heirs.

In her case, she had her parents to attend while she decided to take the night off and drink to her heart content while watching a horror movie.

"Nope. I would pass. Perhaps if there is another one you would be attending, then I would come. For now, enjoy. I would just enjoy what you have been enjoying all these years, calmness and some wine and horror movies."

"Deal?"

"Deal. You and I know this won’t be the last dinner you would be attending with Ye Cheng. Get ready to attend more."

"I..." she was about arguing when Yin Lifen cut in.

"No word, just go. Your prince charming is waiting." The way she said it so dramatically made Li Jing recall Disney princesses and their princes.

They both shared a burst of simple laughter before, Li Jing turned around and left her room, leaving Yin Lifen behind.

"Enjoy baby girl, I would be here anytime you get back."

~Mrs Lin Huilang’s Birthday Party~

The birthday party was held Lin’s Magnificent hotel with several guests going in and out and many more arriving in luxurious cars, showing just how prominent she was.

Soon ye Cheng’s car pulled out in the parking lot and his driver came down to open the car for him and Li Jing.

As soon as she stepped out, both men and women had their jaws dropping at her appearance. Ye Cheng went to offer her his arm and she locked hers in his elbow and they both walked into the beautifully and intricately designed hotel.

If Li Jing had thought Mr Yu Xiaowen’s birthday was something glamorous, then she was in for some shocking surprise as this time around, the party was on a whole other level.

It had the touch of a woman evident in every single thing. Starting from the doors, the drapes, the chandeliers, the big and well-decorated event hall... everything was just perfect.

Ye Cheng rubbed on her hand slightly to ease her tensed body as he could feel her tense up when they got close to the door of the big hall.

"Breath." He mouthed to her and took the first step in as she followed in his steps, forgetting to the little advice he gave her and let her breath leave her.

At the same time that Li Jing was left breathless at what she saw, the rich guests in the party were left speechless and breathless as well as soon as both stepped in.

Draped into the shade of milky white she was elegantly carrying the plain shade with had no gems to add to its beauty but somehow her gorgeous face and perfect hourglass figure enhanced the beauty of the dress.

She was cunningly exposing her cleavage with the slit she had as neckline and the straps hung around her forearm loosely holding onto her skin and delicately stealing kisses from her.

A huge flare around her mid-thigh was there to snag everyone’s attention but to keep men at some distance with the extra consumption of cloth, above her butt the dress was hugging enough tightly to expose the shape of her round butt.

Everything was perfectly worn by her that she cleverly used blue smokey eye shadow which was cleverly matched with her lovely necklace which apparently had thin chains and a big oval-shaped single blue gem. The mere thing seemed some family heirloom and was worth a big fortune that she intentionally wore it to the particular party.

With each step she took, and every slight movement of her head, her silver necklace shone under the party light with her matching silver purse, she was definitely the lady of the day even though she was not the celebrant.

At that moment, Ye felt like the man of the day as well. He felt so grateful to be standing close to such rare beauty and have everyone adore her.

Elegantly, both of them walked towards the centre of the big hall and unlike last time, YeChenmg did not leave her one bit even when several of his business partners came over to steal him away.

Somewhere in the same party, a young man was seen talking to the heiress of one of the business tycoons present.

He had been so engrossed in his discussion with her that he failed to notice when a little birdie walked in stealing everyone’s attention away.

But when he caught the heiress staring with parted lips, he followed the line of her sight and his eyes came upon what made her speechless.

Upon noticing the arrival of the stunning beauty, a small smile curved up his lips and he immediately followed through and excused himself.

"Excuse me." He told the heiress he was with and slightly dipped his head down then left her side, heading towards the stunning beauty.

He had failed to see the man she was with but even at that, that did not stop him one bit from reaching his goal.

"We meet again, Li Jing." His charming and manly voice seemed to have interrupted the small talk going on between the pair.

Both of them turned around at once to see who it was but Li Jing could already guess who was behind them.
