Mr. CEO Loves The Devilish Beauty

On Friday night, Wu Wang was discharged from the hospital and after a long and hard argument, he finally managed to shake off his mother and came back to his penthouse alone. It wasn’t ideal for him to stay alone but Fan Bingbing knew she couldn’t possibly win an argument with her stubborn son.

If he wasn’t this stubborn, she’d have already gotten him married a long time ago. But sigh... He was a hard nut to crack indeed.

After being all alone in his penthouse, Wu Wang felt strange loneliness in his heart. At the hospital, there was always someone hanging around him and if no-one was there that chatterbox doctor, Yang Ziyi would come to nag him for no reason. Now, there was an eerie silence in the big penthouse.

Tossing and turning till dawn, sleep finally knocked on his weary soul and he fell in slumber.

"Ding-Dong!"

The doorbell rang around 11 o’clock in the morning. The shrill sound snapped him out of his slumber making him groan in irritation. Hearing the doorbell ring again, he had to leave the comfort of his bed and walk out to the door.

Tiredly, he pulled open the door. But suddenly, all the sleep in his eyes vanished like morning dew. The person at the door was the one he least expected or perhaps, it never even crossed his mind that he’d see that person standing before him like this.

"Hi, Wang!" Her soft voice rang out in his ears waking him up from his stupor.

"What are you doing here, Ms. Zhou Qi?" He was stern and that really surprised Zhou Qi.

"I heard that you’re in the hospital. So, I brought some fruits for you," she extended the fruit basket towards him.

Wu Wang stared at the fruit basket for a moment before taking it from her hands and saying, "Thank you very much. Now, you can leave." He was about to close the door but Zhou Qi held it with her hand. "Is there something else?" He asked in a neutral manner.

"I-," she bit her lip trying to shake off her nervousness as she continued, "I want to talk to you. Can I come inside?"

Looking at her eager eyes, Wu Wang relented and gave her the way to pass. She mumbled a ’thank you’ and walked inside. Her eyes wandered around, looking at the art pieces and interior. She took a seat at the couch and Wu Wang went to bring some water for her as common courtesy.

After offering her some water, he took a seat far opposite of hers. "You have a beautiful place." She commented.

"That I already know. Why don’t you get to the point?" Wu Wang didn’t want to dilly-dally anymore since her presence was making him uncomfortable.

"I need to tell you something... About... What really happened back then..." She started speaking but just the mention of what happened back then made him clench his fists tightly.

"I don’t want to hear the same story all over again," Wu Wang interrupted her and continued, "I know you’re only here because you already know that I learned all about what happened back then."

Zhou Qi lowered her head since his words weren’t wrong. She had heard everything from Ming Qu and that’s why she decided to come. To apologize to Wu Wang.

Wu Wang sneered to himself as he saw her head lowered in embarrassment. The more he looked at her face, the more Ming Qu’s words came back to haunt him.

"She didn’t abort the child back then, Wang." Ming Qu had said, startling Wu Wang in the bar.

"What do you mean?" Wu Wang managed to voice out his question. "My child is still alive?" His voice was trembling and Ming Qu felt so bad being the one to tell him the truth.

"No," Ming Qu shook his head and Wu Wang frowned in perplexion. "The child wasn’t yours, to begin with." Wu Wang’s world came tumbling down as he could even hear the sound of his heartbreaking down. Ming Qu took a deep breath and continued, "She had a fight with you over something and got drunk pretty badly. That’s when she met me and my business partner. Who knew that my partner, Daniel was actually her ex."

With trembling hands, Wu Wang took a swig of his drink and asked, "Did she lie about having my child?"

"She didn’t wanna lose you back then. So, I guess she did."

"Then why the hell did she told me that she aborted the child? Huh? Why not just live with the lie that it was indeed my child?" Wu Wang’s voice boomed in the almost empty bar.

"I didn’t know it before but now, I do. Her aunt, I mean Ye Jun’s mother actually threatened her to go back to Daniel since he had a stable life to offer instead of you who was pretending to be dirt poor at that time." Ming Qu’s words made Wu Wang dumbfounded. "Wang, what if she stayed? Would you really accept another man’s blood as yours?"

"Forget it! Why is she back now?" Wu Wang evaded his question since he knew Ming Qu wouldn’t have liked his answer. If it meant keeping her by his side, he would have gladly accepted that child. But the pretext was, she had to be there with him.

"I guess Mrs. Zhou Ning actually revaluated you after Xu Mey’s marriage," Wu Wang remembered that gaze of Zhou Ning’s when he stayed for lunch at Xu Mey’s house. "Zhou Qi got divorced about two years ago but after meeting you and realizing that you were the same guy who was head over heels in love with her niece, she called Zhou Qi back."

After hearing and understanding all these schemes. Wu Wang still questioned one thing, "Did she know? About why her aunt asked her to come back?"

"I don’t know!" Ming Qu shook his head and patting Wu Wang’s shoulder he said, "I just wanted you to know that the grave you have built for your unborn child, it shouldn’t be there. Don’t hurt yourself by always running back to that cemetery since the child was never yours."

That day, what hurt him? Zhou Qi’s lies? Or the fact that he cried for a child for over 8 years when it was not even his? Or perhaps, the fact that the girl he loved turned out to be like those pretentious ones who buzzed around him since childhood.

Now, his stay in the hospital has actually helped him in getting some clear picture of his thoughts. Seeing her embarrassment or her face wasn’t that painful as it was two weeks ago.

"But let me ask you a question," his voice made Zhou Qi look up at him with glistening eyes as he questioned with a straight face, "When you came here, did you know why your aunt called you?"

Zhou Qi stayed quiet and pursed her lips, not even daring to look straight at him.

Wu Wang chuckled sadly as he mumbled, "Of course, you knew!"
