Mr Indifferent CEO, Be Careful With My Heart Chapter 281 - Talk Over Dinner

***********

CHAPTER 281

By the time Li Jing arrived at the lobby area, she quickly searched for Yin Lifen and found her seated at the waiting area just typing away on her phone.

She shook her head before proceeding to where she was.

"Hey dear."

"Li Jing." That was all Yin Lifen uttered and returned her gaze back to her phone ignoring her friend.

"Come on, talk to me."

"There is nothing to say, Li Jing."

"How about starting with telling me why your name is Ava and I knew nothing about it?"

Yin Lifen sighed and she sat up, then tapped on the cus.h.i.+on, gesturing for her friend to take a seat right next to her.

Li Jing sat down and waited for her friend to start speaking. And just like that, the tale began.

"I never told anyone my English name. In fact no one called me that, even at home. It was rare before you hear my mum mentioning it."

"Why? It is such a nice name."

"Yes, but I do not know. I was always used to being called Yin Lifen and nothing more."

"Then why tell him? Is it that he means so much to you than I do?"

A tear escaped her eyelid and slid down her cheek.

"That is not the reason Li Jing. As I told you, we never had s.e.x on the first day. So when he introduced himself, he used his English name. I felt perhaps he just did not want me to know him that much and all or something so I mirrored his intro and did the same."

"Okay."

"Yes. And before I knew it, we talked all night and slept. We did nothing more than a kiss. And I found that I didn't want to leave him, neither did he. We kept on talking, even while eating and all. By and by the attraction grew strong and one thing led to another and that was it."

"It is okay, no need reliving those memories that would hurt you the most."

"I miss him, Li Jing, so much."

"It is okay. Just keep calm and do not let your heart cry much. Do not forget why we came here."

'I won't. We need to work and get this project rolling."

"No that is not it, Lifen. We are here to have a nice vacation. We are here so that your heart can have a break and relax. While still doing work though. But the work aspect is mostly for me and not you."

"Li Jing…"

"No. I need you to get yourself back and not be like this. This isn't you. You are better than this, you know it." Li Jing did her best to prep talk Yin Lifen and by the end of it all she was better.

"Thank you so very much, Li Jing."

"What are friend's for? Now, let us order our lunch. It is already late."

"You mean dinner right? Take a look at the time. We ended up talking for long." Yin Lifen indicated by pointing at her watch.

"Of course, I knew that," Li Jing said, trying to evade her mistake.
