Mr Indifferent CEO, Be Careful With My Heart

Chapter 733: Till Death Do Us Apart

**************

CHAPTER 732

“Absolutely. Till death do us apart. In good and in bad, for better or for worse,’ she recapped their vows to each other, as a sign that she was willing to hear him speak.

And even if he were to come to her now and tell her he killed someone, she would never hate him. It was how much her soul had been tied to this one man.

“Okay.” He brought her head back to rest on his shoulder and covered them with the blanket. “Here goes nothing.”

Placing her hand on his chest, Li Jing drew out the imaginary circles on his chest while she listened to his heartbeat. “Just relax and tell me what went wrong.”

“Nothing much but so many things happened today and now that I think about it, I may have...” He paused again and inhaled deeply.

.....

She patted his right nipple and smiled. “Tell me, honey. I am all ears.”

“Okay. I-I found Ren, the one who was stalking you and I took Chen’an, the girl from that incident that night,” he rushed out quickly before she got the time to comprehend most of what he said.

“Huh...” Li Jing had barely begun when his voice interjected again.

“And I also found out that mum was almost killed today.”

“WHAT!”

Li Jing pulled away from the hug completely, staring at him with dread consuming her eyes and every thought.

Li An wasn’t her mother but after their initial fight was over, she took Li Jing in and accepted her as she would do her own daughter had she had one.

So, hearing him tell her that, was just...

She shook her head, and a disbelieving laugh tore through her lips but the look of pure sadness in his eyes did not change.

“You are kidding right?”

“I wish I was. But she was warned today.”

“Who had the guts to?”

“Who else do you think it would be? I may be wrong but I think the Zhang family made their move and did it strongly.”

“Ye Cheng, are you okay?” Li Jing sat up completely, ignoring the crease on her brows as she thought of something. “You should be with her at this hour, Ye Cheng.”

‘No. I should be with my wife,” he corrected.

“I know but I am not complaining. She must have been scared.”

Okay, he knew he was saddened by the thought of losing his mother, but hearing Li Jing think she would be scared, he could not hold in the laughter that broke out.

Of course, she watched him with confusion laced in her beautiful hazel orbs. “What’s so funny? Do not tell me this is nothing but a prank?”

“I won’t tell you that because it isn’t, my queen. However, all I said is true.”

His smile dropped and he pulled her back down to lie with him. “Mum was really threatened. However, being scared is the last thing on her mind. I called her some minutes again and she was normal.”

“She could be acting, you know.”

‘I know but I know my mum. She may look frail but her heart became stronger over the years.”

“Okay. So we should not be worried? We have to. We cannot ignore the threat just like that. How her come live with us.”

“I tried my love but she refused me. Mum is one stubborn being, trust me.”

“So what would you do?”

“Give her time to make her decision but I think with much push, she would finally give in.”

“Okay. Yes, there was one more,” Li Jing began. “What did you say about catching the man stalking me and Chen’an?”

His hold on her only tightened. Sensing something was wrong, Li Jing pressed her lips firmly against his neck and sucked on the exposed flesh.

“No matter what, tell me, I am here for you.”

Ye Cheng let out a deep sigh and nodded his head. “Fine. I would. His name is Ren and we found out he has been leaving with Chen’an.

“You mean the girl?” Li Jing blurted out her question quickly.

“Yes. The girl that slapped me.”

“Why? Were they... no. Was she playing with us that day?”

“I doubt. I could see it in her eyes that she was confused by the whole thing too. Even if she was playing, she wouldn’t be that much of a good actress.”

“Alright. Tell me, what really happened?”

“I had him captured and tied then I waited for her arrival and hoped he would speak rather than have her see him that way.”

“You think they are together?”

“I do not just think, Li Jing. They have been together. But what I suspect is that after the incident they got together, except as you said, then they really played us.”

‘Hmm. Okay, carry on.”

‘Well, I could tell from a viewer’s perspective that they loved each other and she pleaded that he was innocent but him, Ren, would not tell me the truth and who he is working for.”

She took in a deep breath, wrapping her mind around the information she was provided.

There was a high probability it was staged. And if so, why would they let themselves get caught easily? These were some of the questions roaming around in her head.

“However, while trying to get him to talk, I used the tasers on him.”

Ever since he ensured she rested comfortably, this was the first time she was pulling back again.

Resting her head against her palm, supported by her elbow on the bed, Li Jing gazed unbelieving at her husband for a minute.

She knew he had it in him to be ruthless, but she never had seen him display that quality.

“What did you do?”

The dread in those eyes as she did her best to fight against her fears and the voice in her mind ringing nonstop.

“And?”

“I tasered him till she jumped in, holding the tasers and fainted.”

Badum! Badum!

Li Jing could hear her own heartbeat pounding nonstop in her eardrums as she was faced with harsh reality.
