We believe that we live a very simple or miserable life without any meaning or purpose behind it. But when that exact life of ours is seen through others eyes, it becomes meaningful. It's not the eyes that bring that purpose but that person is one who makes it meaningful.
The night before, Xu Mey talked a lot about Naruto just because she wanted Ye Jie to lose that gloomy look. And it worked in the end.
The next morning, Xu Mey was frowning with a thoughtful expression as she watched Ye Jie getting ready for the day in his maroon handmade suit. "Jie, take your suit off!" Her sudden words made Ye Jie cough profoundly. Realizing how her words must have sounded to him, she cleared her throat and avoided looking at him. "I mean to say, wear something else." Even though she tried to hide her earlier embarrassment but her red ears were giving her away.
"Then, my cherry wife should help me choose." He didn't try to tease her early in the morning.
Xu Mey nodded and ran inside the closet. She brought out black jeans with a white round-collared shirt and a black leather jacket over it. It was a complete opposite of what he was used to wearing in the office but since it was picked by Xu Mey, he had to change at all costs.
After 10 minutes both of them walked downstairs together. Xu Mey was wearing blue skinny jeans with rose gold colored top pairing it with a beautiful black blazer with gold lining. She looked clean and fresh like a college student.
After both of them ate breakfast, they headed out. Ye Jie had just opened his car door when Xu Mey pushed it to close. Ye Jie turned his head to look at her shaking her index finger in a 'no-no' gesture. She pointed with her thumb at the motorbike parked behind her. Ye Jie frowned with suspicion in his eyes.
"Since, you've been giving me a ride for this week. I thought I should also give you a ride once in a while. How about my motorbike?" Xu Mey raised her brows suggestively with a beaming smile displaying her dimple that made Ye Jie swallow whatever argument he wanted to make. In the end, he nodded.
Xu Mey put on her helmet before getting on the bike and passed another helmet to Ye Jie. He took it kindly and put it on. He climbed on the motorbike right behind her.
He wasn't scared of her driving skills rather he was a bit worried that he was the CEO of Ye Enterprises and if his employees saw him like this, it'll give them plenty of things to gossip about. And Ye Jie hated the gossips.
But all his worries were dumped out of his mind, the moment Xu Mey held his hands and made him grab her waist tightly. Then, she sped off with a woosh.
The cold breeze in the morning was pleasant with a bright blue sky. And a fragrance of freshly bloomed flowers in the air made it even more pleasing. Ye Jie leaned on her back inching closer to her body taking in her lavender scent. And since, Xu Mey wasn't rejecting him, he wasn't being bashful at all.
It took less than 30 minutes on the bike to reach the Ye Enterprises. In the busy hours, it was easier to whiz around the traffic with a bike.
Xu Mey parked the bike right at the front door of the tall building. There were many people briskly making their way inside the building to arrive on time.
Ye Jie got off the bike and took off his helmet as he passed it to her.
"Hey! Isn't that our CEO Ye?" Someone at the door mentioned and everyone stopped to look. They all saw that it was indeed their CEO but he dressed differently. With his already handsome face, he looked young, carefree and a bit wild like this.
"CEO Ye is so handsome." Another girl commented.
"He surely has the looks and the brawns as well." One of the passersby sighed.
Ye Jie could hear their voices clearly from where he was standing. He frowned. "Take your helmet off!" He said to Xu Mey.
She didn't think much about his request and took off her own helmet. When the people staring at Ye Jie looked at the girl sitting on the bike. Their eyes widened. Everyone was stunned.
"She's beautiful…" After a moment of silence, someone spoke.
"What beautiful? She's gorgeous like a pure goddess." Another one chimed in.
"Are we not going to focus on who is she?" Another gossipmonger spoke.
"She seems close to the CEO."
"But didn't CEO just got married?" One of the men pointed it out.
"Then she must be CEO's wife?" A gasp escaped someone's mouth.
"Or she could be the mistress. I heard,the CEO's wife is just average." Everyone around nodded in agreement.
Ye Jie had to roll his eyes at their gossipy mouths. 'They are definitely not getting any bonus this month. How dare they describe my wife as average and what? She's a mistress!? Huh!'
He bent down a bit and kissed the top of Xu Mey's head like their personal tradition. "Have a good day, Wifey!" He said loud enough for everyone around to hear. All the people watching, stared while gaping. He even flashed his charming smile.
A young assistant watching behind fainted at his gorgeous smile. It was rare for the CEO to even smile politely.
With Xu Mey's nature, she really didn't notice the passersby. For her, if they were not related to her then they didn't matter at all.
She looked at Ye Jie standing tall beside her. She beckoned him to come closer. Ye Jie leaned towards her obediently. Xu Mey combed his hair with her fingers which were ruined by the helmet but gave him a rough look. Even though he looked handsome like that, she knew it was not appropriate to wear that kind of hairstyle at the office.
Ye Jie allowed her to fiddle with his hair as she wanted. He didn't care about the moonshine stares they were receiving from around.
After setting his hair, she planted a soft kiss at his cheek and smiled brightly. "Have a nice day, husband."
Ye Jie was still leaning ahead in a daze as she put on her helmet again and drove into the distance.
All the fangirls around started screaming in excitement breaking Ye Jie's daze. He straightened his back and turned around to walk inside the building. Ignoring all the looks around.
