CHAPTER 395
"Zheng Ying," Liu Xueyi muttered. His eyes remained glued to her person as she slowly took her steps one at a time till she came to stand in front of his desk.
"You do not look pleased to see me, Xueyi darling."
"It's Liu Xueyi, Zheng Ying. No extra suffice."
"Pfft," she giggled softly and within seconds regained her previous expression. "You never lost your humour."
"It wasn't meant to be one. It shows you do not know me as well as you hope you did."
Taking one more look at her, Liu Xueyi's eyes narrowed in on her. "It's been what, six years?"
"What can I say, time sure flies by. You look good by the way. The years only made you more handsome."
"Tsk. And now you suddenly appear and you expect me to look pleased."
Liu Xueyi did his best not to raise his voice at her but his displeasure was evident on his face.
"What do you want here, Zheng Ying?"
"To see you."
"Now you have seen me. Get out."
Her eyes widened for a split second and they retracted back as she regained her composure. Her smile grew, infuriating him even more.
This was not what she bargained for but knowing his temper and having received lots from people outside, she could easily react and comprehend with them.
"Although he knew he overreacted, he was not in the mood to have his fur ruffled today by the wrong person.
"How dare you waltz in here after walking out of my life?"
"How dare I?"
She twirled her finger and tsked at him. Placing her right leg forward, Zheng Ying took some skype close to him till she found her way around the table.
"Do you wish to be thrown out?" His bone-chilling voice rang out, interrupting whatever thoughts she had of coming over.
"Fine. You can be such a killjoy," she noted out loud as she rounded the corner back and stood right in front of his desk.

Andromeda kept her focus on her work. Even though she had been failing miserably to do so since.
She did not understand it but it felt like there was something she was missing.
She wasn't that scared of the competition but she was majorly worried.
This was the first major time she participated, yet when she thought about the many participants, she felt a cold air running down her skin.
"I feel there is something about to happen. Is it just my feeling or is..."
Ring! Ring!
She darted her eyes lazily to the telephone ringing on her desk and reached for it.
"Hello," Andromeda answered.
"Miss Kai."
Her face changed hearing the urgency in Fu Chu Hua's voice.
"Yes? Is something wrong with Liu Xueyi?"
Before Fu Chu Hua could give her a straightforward answer, she was already banging her head, assuming different things.
"Yes… No. I mean no."
"Chu Hua, please tell me what is it exactly. Take a deep breath alright."
She knew she had caused the latter's attitude by asking such a stupid question but she could not help it. Not like this.
"Deep breath," Fu Chu Hua responded as well and finally did it. "Thanks. Yes, Ms. Kai, the CEO wants you in his office."
"Oh, phew! That's what it is."
Andromeda exhaled sharply at the hearing of Fu Chu Hua as she leaned back against her chair.
"Immediately."
The second she heard the last word her eyes flew open and she was now sitting straight like a cadet ready to salute.
"Please."
She did not get to question her when the call was cut and breathed out.
"Something is most definitely wrong. Thanks, Chu Hua. I owe you." She did not take another moment to gape and immediately rose to her feet as she made her way to the office.
********
"Xueyi," Zheng Ying crossed her arm in front of her chest. I believe with what I told you before, you should take to note that I am a woman who needs to be coaxed and pleased."
His gaze darkened emitting a dangerous aura from around him.
"I have no interest in pleasing a heart breaker who disappears without a word on you."
"Xueyi, when you say it like that, you make me look bad."
"Aren't you?"
He dropped his hand, taking it away from his face and took in a deep breath. What do you want?"
"You."
A moment of silence was observed unexpectedly and the next thing Zheng Ying knew, Liu Xueyi burst into an uproar of laughter.
"Don't you think you are a millennium too late?" She arched her brows quizzically at him but did not say anything.
"You were six bloody years too late. I have nothing to offer you, Ying, please leave."
"Is that so?"
"This is my last warning thanks to the bitterly stained past we had. Avoid me."
"I am afraid I cannot do so, Liu Xueyi. I want you and I would have you."
"Hard pass."
She frowned and sat down on the chair in front of her. Liu Xueyi was getting pissed.
He had forgotten all about his call to send Andromeda over. All he wanted more than anything was throwing her out.
"Zheng Ying." The warning in his tine could not go unnoticed no matter what, yet she chose to play her game.
"I think fro what I am about to tell and show you, you will know why I want you and by that, I mean you in my bed."
"You must be sick," Liu Xueyi spat out as he rose to his feet and placed both hands on the table.
"That's the exact same phrase that should be said to him."
She took out a small photo from her purse and slid it towards him as she too followed in his step, standing on her feet.
"He is six years old and he is sick." Her eyes narrowed at him as she leaned forward against the desk, watching Liu Xuyei's expression.
FWISH!
"Xueyi I..."
Andromeda stopped in her tracks as her eyes washed over the two of them. Before she or Liu Xueyi could react, Zheng Ying reacted fast.
Dragging his tie, she pushed forward and pressed a kiss on Liu Xueyi's lips.
