Mr. CEO Loves The Devilish Beauty

While traveling on this journey of life, we often come across a dead-end. It doesn’t mean that the journey is over, it just means we have to change our routes. Other routes might be bumpy and we might still end up with another dead-end but there is no point in standing there and whining about it.

To be honest, none of us can actually be sure about where their journey of life will end. But still, people like to take this journey. Because the day we decide to stop walking ahead is the day we become the cowards who didn’t have the heart to find out the unexpected miracles of this beautiful life.

We can’t possibly recognize our destination until we actually get there. That was the case with Wu Wang. When his car parked at the outskirts of the city, he realized where his destination for this journey was.

Taking steady steps up the small hill, Wu Wang came to stand before a tombstone.

’In loving memory of my child whom I didn’t get to see’ was engraved on it. Wu Wang kept staring at it for a long while.

"Ming Qu was right. I really wasted my tear." He sighed heavily and sat down under the shade of a tree in silence. Most people find cemeteries to be freakish and ghostly but his belief was that there was a strange kind of peacefulness in this place perhaps because this was the last resting place for so many people.

Getting people to remove the tombstone and dealing with other miscellaneous tasks, he walked down the hill. The sun had already gone down by the time he came down. This was it! This was the place where he needed to reverse back and take another route. This possibly couldn’t be the destination of his journey. He needed to find his destination and it wasn’t an easy task.

He was about to open the door of his car when he heard a voice from behind, "Excuse me! Can you give me a ride to the city?" The voice was a bit hoarse.

Wu Wang turned to look at the person and the sight before him took him by surprise. There was a young woman clad in complete white clothes standing opposite of him with her dark black hair falling all over her face as she was rubbing her neck muscles. He had a strong heart otherwise the sight was quite eerie since he was right outside a cemetery and that too after the sunset.

Before answering her, Wu Wang lifted his hand and touched the girl’s shoulder to check something, "What are you doing?" He heard an angry roar as the girl lifted her hair making Wu Wang really want to scream this time. "Oh? It’s my Mr. Patient!"

Wu Wang rolled his eyes and said, "I’m not your patient anymore." But inwardly he was thinking, ’The face behind the thick hair is scarier.’

"I know!" Yang Ziyi was really surprised to see Wu Wang but she didn’t show it on her face, unlike Wu Wang who still looked at her as if seeing a real-life ghost. "Don’t tell me, you thought I was a ghost. That’s why you just touched me, right?"

Wu Wang cleared his throat and straightened up to argue, "It’s not my fault for mistaking though. Who comes to a cemetery in white clothes and what’s with that bird’s nest on your head. Also, have you seen the time? Sun has already gone down and at this time only ghosts can wander here."

Yang Ziyi scowled as she tried to set her hair saying, "What do you mean by bird’s nest? I lost my hair tie and it’s quite windy here. My hair got tangled. No need to humiliate me like this. I only asked for a lift, not your life."

"Get in the car, I don’t have time to argue with you." Wu Wang cut short the entire argument and went back to his car. Yang Ziyi stopped talking and happily got inside his car. As the car drove in silence, Yang Ziyi grew uncomfortable and seeing her trying to stay quiet, Wu Wang couldn’t help but smile to himself. "So, what were you doing-?" Before Wu Wang could even finish his question, Yang Ziyi’s FM started without an off button.

"Oh, I came to see my brother. He died ten years ago in an accident while he was trying to save my life. My mom started hating me after that and dad sent me away to keep mom senile. I haven’t really gotten back since then. So, it’s been a long time for me to see my brother. I really missed him." Hearing her talk so nonchalantly about her brother’s death, Wu Wang was taken aback. Even he wasn’t this indifferent when he talked about his dead sister.

"Sorry to hear about your brother but I actually was asking about why you were here this late? It’s not a safe place for a lady." Wu Wang spoke when she took a pause to catch her breath.

"Ohhh!" After understanding his real meaning, she started again, "Actually, I came in the afternoon but I was too tired and the wind felt good. Also, the peace in the cemetery was like a lullaby and I just slept there until now." She wasn’t the type to beat around the bush, she was way too honest for her own good. Since he asked, she didn’t even mind telling him the truth even when she knew, he’d find her weird and freakish after this.

"Anyways, what brought you here?" Yang Ziyi’s question was expected but Wu Wang didn’t want to give her an answer.

"I came to change the route of a journey."

"Huh?" She was dumbfounded by his reply but Wu Wang didn’t explain any further, instead, he changed the topic.

"So, you haven’t met your parents in a decade?"

Yang Ziyi looked out the window pane and answered, "Nope! And now, I don’t want to see them. I mean it’s not like I asked my brother to push me out of the way. But they still blamed me for losing their son. Huh!"

"Your brother must have loved you a lot," Wu Wang remarked but she snorted in return.

"He might have loved me but I hate it that he gave me this life. It feels like I’m living someone else’s life."

Wu Wang looked at the side of her face in a thoughtful manner before saying, "It’s weird how the one who loved you left hate in you for life itself. Technically, you don’t hate life. You just hate this world where you can’t see your brother anymore. Life without the people we love actually seems hateful."

Yang Ziyi gritted her teeth since she couldn’t find a way to argue with him. She had nothing in her defense since each word was the truth. Since she missed her brother, she started accepting that life itself was hateful. Denying the fact that she didn’t like the world without her brother.

"I hate you more, now!" She grumbled in frustration.

Wu Wang smiled and replied, "Right back at ya’!"
