Xu Mey and Ye Jun had to follow Ye Jie willingly. Both of them kept their heads lowered not daring to look at Ye Jie.
Ye Jie took a seat at the single sofa while Ye Jun sat across from him. But as Xu Mey was going to sit beside Ye Jun, Ye Jie held her wrist and pulled her towards himself making her land on his lap. Xu Mey gasped while Ye Jun was gaping.
Xu Mey tried to stand up but Ye Jie encircled his arms around her waist not letting her escape his grasp. She puffed up her cheeks adorably and glared at him. "Be nice, baby or I'll forget that Jun is still sitting here." Xu Mey heard Ye Jie's deep voice as his eyes were lingering on her lips. She gulped and gave up on resistance.
He kept his right arm around her slim waist while his other hand reached for her soft one and laced her fingers with his own possessively. Xu Mey was profoundly fascinating to Ye Jie as always. While his eyes were engrossed of Xu Mey, he asked, "What really happened?"
Ye Jun tried his best to ignore the look in his brother's eyes and replied, "I went to see Jun Li Na. It was close to 3 in the morning and she was getting out of the club in her car. I couldn't think of anything else so I just jumped in front of her car to stop her. How would I know that her bodyguards were around and they didn't even ask anything? They just started beating me into a pulp." Ye Jun made an aggrieved face.
Ye Jie ran his fingers at Xu Mey's back slowly- up and down. She tried to protest but soon she relaxed under his touch. "If you'll act like a jerk, what else do you expect?" Ye Jie's voice held sarcasm.
"Bro, I was just trying to get to talk to her." Ye Jie argued.
"Jun, this is not how you get a woman. That's how you lose one." Ye Jie retorted with his fingers still on Xu Mey's back.
"Bro, that's not how you lose a woman." Ye Jun grumbled.
"Oh really? Then how do you lose a woman?" Ye Jie asked with curiosity.
"You forget to cherish her..." Ye Jun replied emphasizing with his hand gestures. While Ye Jie was surprised by his answer what surprised him more was the way Xu Mey started laughing at his reply.
She tried to calm herself and asked, "Little bro, have you seen too much 'The Suite Life Of Zack & Cody'?
Ye Jun nodded his head like a rattle and asked, "You too?" Xu Mey nodded as well in reply. "That's so cool. Bro always said that those shows were childish." Ye Jun glared at Ye Jie who was amused at his wife's excitement.
Ye Jie pulled Xu Mey even closer and buried his face in her neck as Xu Mey heard his low voice, "Baby, do you think I'm too old?" Xu Mey couldn't help but shiver when he inhaled her scent and stole a kiss behind her earlobe.
Xu Mey licked her lips and tried to speak. "I... I didn't say that..." She was stammering and Ye Jie was amused by it. "I... You're not old... Just a bit... boring~ Ouch!" She managed to say when Ye Jie bit her earlobe making her wince.
"So, you mean..." Ye Jie kissed her neck. "I'm boring?" He kissed her neck again. "Do you really want me to prove to you how much boring I really am?" Xu Mey could understand his underlying meaning as she tried to control her breathing.
She tilted her body a bit and placed her soft palm against his cheek. This action managed to control the ferocious beast running wild inside Ye Jie as he stared into her black orbs and felt himself losing his senses. "You're not boring at all... Ah Jie, you're the only one in the world who can make me speechless, how can you be boring?"
People that managed to hold onto to their childishness in this tremendously scary and deceiving world really had a pure and innocent heart. Although Ye Jie knew that both Xu Mey and Ye Jun had an innocent and pure side buried in them, he still couldn't manage to control the feelings inside him. He felt like he was suddenly losing out from his own younger brother. Ye Jie wanted to be the one who could make Xu Mey laugh but he never lived like a kid.
Ye Jie was always an obedient, smart and mature kid. He didn't watch tv except for watching the news. He couldn't relate to Xu Mey's childish nature but when she said that he was the only one who held the power to make her speechless, he felt an extreme sense of relief wash over him. He wasn't rueful anymore about the fact that he never kept his childish side.
So what if he couldn't make her laugh? He could make her smile sincerely. And he could make her feel every other emotion that she missed in her life until now. This was enough for Ye Jie.
If this was a comic book then surely our young master Ye Jun would have a big bubble over his head with the words: 'Forgotten like thin air.' along with an arrow pointing at him.
Ye Jun thought he knew all about his brother but today, he saw a possessiveness in Ye Jie which was never there before. At this time, he realized that his brother was a lost cause in this ocean of love, he was completely drowned.
Ye Jun saw the way Xu Mey and Ye Jie were riveted in each other's eyes and felt sanguine inside. He knew that this was the love that Ye Jie needed in his life. From seeing Xu Mey in the storage room at the wedding, Ye Jun knew that she'll bring a huge change in Ye Jie's life. But it wasn't even in his wildest dreams that she'll manage to bring Ye Jie's real self out. He suddenly couldn't recognize his brother at all. It was like looking at a whole new Ye Jie.
