We all have plans for our lives. And we always try our best to stick with that plan. Our Xu y and Ye Jie also had the plans for their respective lives. For instance, they had an image of never being late. But for Ye Jie, it’s been becoming a habit to co late in the past few days and everyone was quite surprised on that.
Entering his office, Ye Jie called for his younger brother to co to his room. After that, he took off his coat and placed it nicely behind his seat. He slowly rolled up his sleeves a bit and cracked his knuckles. He stretched his neck as well and gave a sinister smile. "Let’s see where you run away from now, Jun. How dare you beco my wife’s partner in cri? Only I can be her partner in life and in cris as well!"
The whites of his eyes were getting a shade of red. He calmly stood beside the door of his office and waited patiently for Ye Jun.
Ye Jun excitedly knocked on Ye Jie’s door and opened the door. But the mont he opened the door, he was pulled inside from his wrist and with a thud his back hit the door which closed behind him and he heard a ’tick’ sound which ant that the door was locked. When Ye Jun got out of his shock, he noticed the position he was in. He was trapped between a hard mahogany door and his brother hardcore eyes. Ye Jie’s hands were placed on the sides of his body.
Ye Jun gulped. He quaked, "Bro, don’t you think you’re doing this act of Kabedon (*) to the wrong person?" He grimaced at the end of his query.
Ye Jie smiled pleasantly but Ye Jun felt a shadow of foreboding engulfing his body, heart, and soul. "I don’t think I’m doing this to the wrong person. The only person who needs a lesson is after all my dear little brother." Ye Jun quivered at Ye Jie’s sinister tone making him want to gulp down his saliva but that damn thing was stuck in his throat sowhere.
"My dear Grandfather, what have I done to get this treatnt?" Ye Jun wailed in his frightened state and called Ye Jie ’grandfather’ instead of ’brother’. "This look of yours is really scary."
"Am I scary?" Ye Jun nodded to agree. Ye Jie passed the sa sweet smile and raised his one hand as if intending to slap him and Ye Jun closed his eyes in fear anticipating the slap which didn’t land. He slowly peeked and saw Ye Jie’s hand still raised but when Ye Jun opened the eyes completely, Ye Jie lightly slapped his face. "Dear little brother, how dare you to beco my wife’s partner in cri?"
Ye Jun’s eyes widened as realization dawned on him. Ye Jie slapped his cheek lightly again and continued, "You didn’t bother telling that she’s President Xu?" Another light slap and Ye Jun was at the verge of crying with his lips quivering and watery eyes. Ye Jie knew that he was being dramatic as always but he still backed off.
As if given another lease on life, Ye Jun slid down the door and tried to calm his breathing. He tried to stand back up but his legs wobbled when he heard Ye Jie’s voice again questioning him, "What else are you hiding from ?"
Ye Jun licked his dry lips and lowered his head not daring to look up or say another word. "I asked a question, Jun." Ye Jie’s voice raised an octave scaring Ye Jun out of his wits.
"Bro, don’t ask that question, please, I beg you!" Ye Jun pleaded.
Ye Jie sighed loudly. "Why not?" He retorted.
"Sis will murder ." Ye Jun made a crying face beseeching his brother to have so rcy on his poor soul.
"And do you think that I won’t murder you?" Ye Jie inquired rhetorically.
Ye Jie pursed his lips when he saw the look in Ye Jie’s eyes, he knew that consequences won’t be nice if he stayed silent. Ye Jie took slow steps towards Ye Jun’s figure sitting on the cold floor. With each step, Ye Jun felt like soone strangling him and when the intimidating pressure got unbearable, he imdiately raised his hands in surrender.
"I’ll tell you. Just don’t punish , okay?" Ye Jie shrugged his shoulders as if to say that ’We’ll see about that after you start talking.’
Ye Jun was left with no route to escape. He pushed his body off of the floor and dusted his pants and sat at the nearby sofa. He took a sip of warm water to soothe his parched throat and took a deep breath to muster up his courage.
"Stop wasting my ti." Ye Jie’s threatening voice and somber look made Ye Jun choke on the water.
He coughed a bit and went on, "I was there when Xu Liqing was implicated in all the ss." Ye Jie listened attentively while observing the skyscrapers with his hands in his pockets. "Although I don’t know much about Sis y; I know that she’s not that simple as the world takes her to be. But you also know that part. And I guess that made you fall for her in the first place."
Ye Jun saw the way Ye Jie’s lips curled upwards at the ntion of falling in love. "There is another thing that I know." Ye Jie turned his face with a questioning look towards Ye Jun. "You have a love rival. And a strong one at that too."
Now, that caught Ye Jie’s complete attention. "What do you an?" He asked taking a seat beside Ye Jun.
"It’s my friend, Fu Shuang." Ye Jie had a slight impression of that young man but he didn’t know him at a personal level. "He’s been in love with sis from years. And his love is at a whole new level of craziness."
"Explain in detail!" Ye Jie demanded.
(*) Kabedon: Originating in Japan, the bizarre phenonon of kabedon - kabe ans wall and don is the thud of soone hitting it. In other words, the male lead corners his love interest against a wall using his arms. (P.S: I think Ye Jie really needed this Kabedon thingy with our Xu y. Oh well, we have plenty of ti for that.)
