CHAPTER 76

"Thank you. I would hate it if you think that I was being like this because I wanted to restrict your movements," Ye Cheng confessed his inner worries to her.

"I understand. Even if you do, it is all to protect me. And you didn't. Anyways, I want to visit a friend of mine whose grandmother was hospitalized. She had been discharged, so I thought to pay them a visit at home."

"Oh~ Alright. Wait for me downstairs, I would soon be there. Will drop you off on my way back.'

"Are you sure? I don't want to be a bother."

"Positive. Besides I can be sure you arrived there safely."

"Alright. I would wait. Thanks."

"No worries."

The call went dead and he drove faster to her house.

Within five minutes, he was already outside the house. Then called her to come down.

Without wasting time anymore, she left the condo unit and locked the door before heading to the elevator .

By the time she arrived outside, she saw him standing beside his car with his back to her and quietly walked to where he was hoping to startle him.

"It took you three minutes to get down."

His cold voice rang out softly in the parking lot, halting her movement. Forgetting to scare him off.

While she was busy contemplating what he just said, Ye Cheng turned around to look at her and rather than a frown which she had anticipated, she was greeted with a small smile with part of his pretty incisors being revealed.

Given the fact that she was not expecting him to smile at her, Li Jing's heart actually skipped a bit. She subconsciously held her breath as she felt that in a heartbeat, his smile would vanish.

She just stood there, watching him take in her appearance and her somewhat stunned expression in, unable to form any words to reply his earlier statement.

She was putting on a knee high sunflower yellow gown that hugged her upper body tight and fled down from her waist to her knees.

She had a silver small chain bag with a silver high heeled sandals to match. Her hair was left to fall freely down her shoulders and some strands cascaded at her back, stopping just below her waist.

She was a sight to behold, a beauty worthy of all attention and praises.

Just looking at her was enough to satisfy the heart of any man and Ye Cheng was no exception. If it was a different scenario and she was his, he would not have hesitated to kiss her red lips right there and then as she looked breathtaking.

Li Jing coughed trying to get back his attention. His smile broadened at her little ways of catching his attention.

"You look absolutely lovely." He said, composing himself.

"Thanks. Same to you."

"Are you complimenting me, because if you are, then looking lovely seems off, don't you think?" he asked her, his smile never leaving his face and adding more charm to his already perfect look.

There was no female in city, who would not swoon at been smiled by the rich and powerful CEO of the Dream Star Corporation.

If looks could kill, Ye Cheng would have killed every lady on the planet. Up until now, Li Jing could not understand how just one person can possess all these qualities.

"You look handsome." Her cheeks flushed the second those words left her mouth. She lowered her gaze from his perfect god-like face to stare at the ground as if its the most interesting thing present.

"Thank you. Shall we?"

She nodded her reply to him and closed the gap between her and his car.

Just before she got to the other door at the front, Ye Cheng moved fast and blocked her path, then opened the door for her to enter. Then he jogged back to enter the driver's seat and zoomed off.

On their way, Ye Cheng inquired if she brought anything with her to give Yin Lifen's grandmother and she replied him with a no.

"Do you want me to make a stop so you can get something like a quick recovery gift for her?'

She had least expected him to be this caring and very attentive. She felt that being someone of his position, he would not be moved or concerned about these kind of things.

"Yes, I would. Thanks for reminding me."

Rather than getting a reply that she was hoping for, Li Jing got another small smile from him, instantly making her skip a heartbeat. This time the smile was not forced. Instead it was a genuine one and she could see it from the glimmer in his eyes that he meant it.

'I wish he would always be this happy.' Li Jing thought and made a silent wish for him.

If she could freeze time and capture this moment, she would do to remind him of how much his smile could change and brighten someone's day. His face lit up just with a simple smile which look so good on his perfectly adorned face.

Whenever he was cold and uncaring, she knew it was all related to his late girlfriend and the trauma of that accident.

Part of her wished that if there was something she could do to help him move on and embrace the life again. It was the least she could do for him since he defended her against Duan Tian.

Minutes later, Ye Cheng pulled up in front of a supermarket and both of them get off the vehicle.

Since quite a lot of people have not seen the face of the CEO of Dream Star Corporation, he was quite free to move around in public.

Even at that whenever he passed, his looks, charisma and aura always caught the hearts of the females around him and even makes actually wished they were him so that they could get all the attention the girls were throwing his way.

Irrespective of all the attention, he never let it get into his head and went on with his activities as normal.

In no time both of them found themselves inside the supermarket and proceeded to the gift section, following the direction of one of the sales rep and began checking for a suitable gift for Yin Lifen's grandmother.

"Li Jing!"
