Chapter 335 – How about... how about I sleep with Mommy and Daddy can go sleep with his mommy (1)
You Jing was very happy to have found out that Meng Jie wasn’t out shopping with any man but was with Ye Zhen instead.
That being said, You Jing still felt helpless in front of Meng Jie. His Adam’s apple rolled up and down ,and he had no idea what to say to her.
Ye Zhen took a sip from her cup of steaming coffee. As she was enveloped in the aroma of the coffee, she could not just sit by and watch anymore.
“Young Master You, please feel free to go and attend to your own business if there is nothing else. I would like to continue enjoying my afternoon tea with Miss Meng.”
Ye Zhen’s intention of sending him away could not have been more obvious. You Jing, a playboy who had perfected his smooth talk, was now standing there speechless like a statue.
Okay, so he didn’t know what to say but couldn’t he at least catch the drift?
Could he not tell from Meng Jie’s look that she wanted nothing to do with him?
It wasn’t that You Jing didn’t know what to say, he just couldn’t get himself to say them out loud in front of Meng Jie. Let alone the fact that Ye Zhen was there as well.
Had Ye Zhen not been there, You Jing might still be able to shamefully force out a word or two.
“I...”
You Jing had just drummed up his courage to start when Meng Jie, sitting across from Ye Zhen, said apologetically to Ye Zhen, “I had fun shopping with you today, Mrs. Lu. It is getting late, however, and I have something else to attend to. Let me take you out to dinner on a later day if the opportunity presents itself.”
Ye Zhen understood why she sounded apologetic and played along with her. “No worries. Let’s keep in touch.”
Meng Jie stood up apologetically, said goodbye to Ye Zhen, and headed out.
You Jing continued to follow behind her. Without Ye Zhen around, he said something to Meng Jie. Ye Zhen didn’t know what he said, but Meng Jie looked as nonchalant as she was before as though You Jing wasn’t there at all. When she had reached her car, she finally stopped and faced You Jing. She said something to him, and his face dropped all of a sudden. As though his feet were nailed on the spot, he stood there motionlessly.
You Jing did not follow her any more after Meng Jie had gotten into her car. He just watched her leave with a very lonely look.
Ye Zhen took another sip of her coffee and sighed.
She wasn’t going to comment on the relationship between Meng Jie and You Jing. Relationships are between two people, and no outsider will understand the emotions of those involved.
If Meng Jie said You Jing wasn’t for her, she must have her reasons. You Jing was fond of Meng Jie and didn’t want to move on; he must have his reasons. You Jing might have been the one at fault back in the days, or there might be parts of the story that she wasn’t aware of. Regardless, nobody had the right to judge them.
The sun was setting, and Ye Zhen made it home before the sun was completely set. She gave the clothing that she had bought for Madam Lu to her. Madam Lu complained that she should not have and that it was too much trouble, but had a big smile on her face as she said it.
Zhouzhou stayed home docilely all day long and was rewarded the toy that he had wanted the most from Ye Zhen. Zhouzhou kissed Ye Zhen multiple times and promised that he would be well-behaved next time as well.
