Saving the overbearing CEO

Chapter 25: First World: Lin Jin's Little Meimei

The scene that Master Lin had unfortunately walked into had him speechless but what could be so appalling that he couldn't even annunciate a single word. Let's rewind to ten minutes.

Qie Ranzhe was lying on the bed watching Lin Jingxie counting money on the table unconsciously observing his exquisite features without even realizing it. He watched as his dark lashes flickered while his dreamy starry eyes motioned focusing on the task at hand. His flawless porcelain skin became more apparent reflecting the rays of the setting sun.

Qie Ranzhe was stuck in his own bubble that he suddenly blurted out, "You looked so pretty earlier on that's why you shouldn't wear makeup," lazily lying on his stomach with half closed eyes.

Wen Qinxi's scalp went numb at the thought of being called pretty by Qie Ranzhe and expectedly lashed out kicking the chair nearby. 'What kind of bullshit is that. How can a man be called pretty?' he thought turning to look at him with mischievous eyes.

"You know any man can look a tad bit pretty with makeup on. Do you want to give it a try?" he said inching closer to him like a psycho toying with his victim.

Qie Ranzhe suddenly had a bad premonition and rolled off to the other side of the bed creating more distance between them. "Okay, l was wrong. I shouldn't have said that," he said nervously smiling trying to coax Lin Jingxie.

"Qie Ranzhe come here so l can fuckin show you what being pretty looks like," he said lunging onto the bed to get to him with rogue powder in his hand.

"Look, you are spilling everywhere. Just calm down, l am sorry okay?" he said while being chased all around the room by a crazed man with makeup on his hand.

"You better give in now otherwise you going to sleep on the floor," threatened Wen Qinxi pushing a chair aside going after him. Sleeping on the floor was in no way convenient for Qie Ranzhe hence he stopped running but pinned Lin Jingxie against the wall tightly holding his wrist that had the powder ultimately forcing him to let go.

They were so close to each other with their warm breath intertwined together, he was close enough to catch a whiff of Lin Jingxie's pleasant scent engraving it in his memory. Qie Ranzhe's heart began to thump exponentially the longer they lingered in this ambiguous position. Shortness of breath followed behind with his eyes ridden with confusion. 'What's wrong with me?' he thought struggling to calm himself down.

He was about to let Lin Jingxie go when Lin Mingxu suddenly walked into such a scene dropping whatever he was holding. "Qie Ranzhe stop bullying my brother. Get off him," he said walking towards them.

Qie Ranzhe turned his attention to Lin Jingxie sowing discord among them. "Haven't you always wanted a little meimei?" he asked with his eyes motioning for the makeup.

Wen Qinxi was eager to dress up Lin Mingxu just like he dressed up his little brother to sneak into a beauty pageant at fifteen just to see pretty girls. "You grab his legs if he tries to run away," whispered an excited Wen Qinxi.

Free from Qie Ranzhe's grasp he grabbed one of the costumes he had been wearing for some of the performances and handed it over to Lin Mingxu saying, "Mingxu can you try this on for your big brother please," in such a gentle tone that could convince anyone to rob a bank.

The kid with a strong brother complex couldn't say no to that and so he put it on with no second thought. It looked so awkward seeing a tall guy wearing an ill fitting dress. Wen Qinxi and Qie Ranzhe wanted to laugh but restrainted themselves as that was only half the plan.

"Okay, now sit so l can complete the look," said Wen Qinxi walking closer to him but Lin Mingxu wasn't stupid. He didn't mind the dress but the makeup, he couldn't bring himself to wear. Brother complex or not that wasn't happening.

"Jin-ge you know l love you but that's not happening," said Lin Mingxu walking backwards.

"Come on now, no one will see, its just the three of us. Mingxu come here!" the last part was said in a rather commanding tone as Wen Qinxi was no longer coaxing him into this.

Just when he thought he could escape from such a torturous event, Qie Ranzhe was too fast for him blocking his path. "Dage Ahhh!" yelled Lin Mingxu as Lin Jingxie powdered his face generously.

Thus the youth struggled with one subduing him and the other putting on blush on his cheeks but because he struggled so much, it wasn't done well. Lin Mingxu looked like a clown that had been drenched in water during a circus act.

This is the scene that Master Lin walked into with Lin Mingxu face down on the floor, Qie Ranzhe holding him down and Lin Jingxie putting more make up on him. "Father save me!" whined Lin Mingxu stretching out his hand as though falling to his death. Wen Qinxi and Qie Ranzhe let him go with their heads drooping down looking as guilty as ever.

"Jin, how can you do this to your sister," said Master Lin not even realizing his mistake.

Lin Mingxu who was now standing behind him hiding from the two bullies complained feeling wronged, "Dad l am a boy,"

The other two fought so hard to suppress their laughter which was not so hard especially when Master Lin looked like he wanted to kill someone. "Yes you are a boy, go wash your face and change out of that dress," said Master Lin looking at him while shaking his head rendered speechless.

Lin Mingxu scurried off leaving behind only a cloud of dust just in case his father changed his mind and punished him. "You two follow me to my study this instant," said Master Lin in a autocratic tone as he turned to lead the way.

'Dads are so fuckin scary,' thought Wen Qinxi following behind with a remorseful look hoping to convince judge Lin to lessen the punishment.
