Mr. CEO Loves The Devilish Beauty-Chapter 7 - Then I Can Marry You

The sun was slowly fading away behind the dark clouds. The bright sunny day took a turn toward a dark rainy one. Xu Mey and Ye Jie were still in the suite. Ye Jie ordered some food while Xu Mey made her way toward the tiny bar in the suite.

When the food arrived, Xu Mey had already drunk about 2 bottles of beers. Ye Jie was focused on her movements, the more he looked, the more he wanted to look deeper. She was trying to open the 3rd bottle which was acting stubborn.

Looking at her delicate skin, that frown between her brows and that cherry lips pouted in annoyance, he had a strong urge to touch her milky white skin. And before he could sleep on that thought, he took the action.

He walked towards the bar counter and stood right behind her. As his strong cinnamon scent assaulted her senses, she turned around only to bump into his chest. He raised his hand up to cup her face in his palm.

"Why don't you keep your hands to yourself, Mr. Ye," She suggested as she swatted his hand away from her face with a glare.

He laughed lightly before his arm came around her waist and pulled her towards his chest, completely trapping her with no route for escape.

"But Ms. Cherry, I simply can't resist that skin of yours," He replied with an innocent expression while caressing her right cheek with the back of his hand.

"Don't push me to break that hand of yours," She was at her limit and he knew that but he just loved to see that adorable scowl on her jade-like skin.

"So, you're going to be a violent wife?" He hummed as if this thought enlightened him somehow. Xu Mey raised her head a little to see his pursed lips and a mischievous glint in his eyes. She pushed him with both hands and walked away from him to maintain a distance.

She huffed and sat down to pick some food to eat. She decided to eat some chicken dumplings and egg rolls. After observing her puffed up cheeks, he found it really cute. He also took a seat and took some fried rice to eat.

Maybe it was their good manners or maybe they didn't have anything to talk but they ate in silence. The deafening silence was broken by the pitter-patter sound of rain along with the forks and plates.

They took their coffee mugs and came to stand in front of the glass wall looking over the rain falling down with full force. Looking at the steam escaping from her coffee cup, Xu Mey thought, 'It's a pity that we have to leave our safe havens just to be shattered by the world. And yet we call it independence.' The steam or rain both were like what she thought, both left their safe haven just to be scattered in this world. She sighed and ignored the burn at the side of her face where Ye Jie's gaze was stuck.

"Why do you want to ruin your own family?" His gaze was still attached to her side profile where he found indifference.

"'Every family has its own problems.'" She started indifferently, "And who said I'm going to ruin them?" She took a sip of her Espresso letting its burning taste tingle her taste buds before adding, "I'm going to seize everything they have." Seeing the way her lips curved into devilish mirth, a cold shiver ran down his body making him quiver.

He decided to not pry. He knew she'll eventually come clean with him. He broke his gaze away from her and looked out at the falling drops of rain. Remembering something, he again asked, "Why do you call me 'Rain'?"

She didn't turn to look at him but retorted with a question of her own, "Why do you call me Cherry?"

"Because of your lips," He bit his tongue after blurting it out and saw the way she raised a single brow in a suspicious manner. "I'm not a pervert. Don't give me that look."

She shrugged her shoulders nonchalantly and replied to his earlier question, "I call you 'Mr. Rain' because of Rain's association with sadness and melancholy." Realizing how she thinks he's a sad person because of their first meeting. He facepalmed himself inwardly for leaving such a bad impression on her.

He chuckled a little and sighed. "You're a weird person." His comment was not wrong from not only his perspective but also everyone else'.

"No, I'm merely one hell of a person," She smirked and saw his flabbergasted aspect. "You didn't get the reference?" She asked with a bit of shock in her soft voice. He shook his head with an impassive look. Her eyes widened as her voice rose an octave, "You haven't watched Black Butler?"

Ye Jie pursed his lips and said in a guilty tone, "No." He didn't even know why he was the guilty one for not watching something. But just her expression was more than enough to make him guilty.

"I'm not marrying you. You've not watched my Sabastian. How am I supposed to marry a person who doesn't have a clue about Black Butler?" She was fuming in rage making her milky white cheeks to puff up and become red.

She stomped her foot like a child who didn't get his favorite candy and sat at the nearby chair while clasping her arms in front of her chest. Ye Jie stood at the side watching her throwing a tantrum, he realized how much adorkable she looked with that expression.

He chewed on his lower lip and walked up to her. He sat down on the armrest of the chair as he caressed her smooth black hair and said, "I can watch it with my wife. That is if she wants to."

Xu Mey pursed her lips while biting the inside of her lip and asked, "You will?" She looked up at his face as he nodded his head in agreement. "Then I can marry you."
