That night, Xu Mey was very confused with Ye Jie's weird behaviour. But she thought that he left abruptly because he wanted to respect her wishes. And that thought really warmed her heart.

What she didn't know was that although Ye Jie did respect her wishes, he was more bothered by his own feelings for her. When the question of obsession and love raised in his heart, he didn't know which feeling to accept.

It took him more than an hour to calm himself down. Xu Mey was still awake but she pretended to sleep when she heard the sound of the door.

Ye Jie walked up to the bed and stretched out on his side. He laid sideways and pulled Xu Mey's body against his own. She was trying to stay calm but when her back touched his chest and his arm tightly wrapped around her stomach, she couldn't stop her heart from beating fast.

He buried his face on her neck and her aroma calmed him down. For the very time, he felt like, this was where he belonged. This was a home he wanted. He remembered the time, she said that she is his family. He was contented with her in his arms and that feeling told him that this was not an obsession. She was the love he was longing for.

The next day, early in the morning, Xu Mey's phone ringtone woke her up. She sleepily answered the call and heard a roar, "What the hell did you do yesterday?"

Xu Mey dragged the phone away from her ear. "Why? What's wrong?"

"Sis... My dearest sis... Wake up! And look at the hot topics of the day." Xu Mey was feeling really sleepy which was very rare for her. "You and my brother are topping the charts everywhere." Now, this made all the sleep fly away.

"What? What are you talking about?" Xu Mey slowly peeled Ye Jie's arm off of her own body, tip-toed out of the room and asked him in a low voice.

"Check it yourself. I'm sending you the link." Ye Jun replied.

Xu Mey didn't hang up the call and opened the link he sent her. The first thing she saw made her eyes wide open.

The top headline read: 'Vintage Gem's low-profile President Xu is actually fond of PDA?'

A photo of her kissing Ye Jie was attached with it. The photo was clicked from an angle where only their bodies were visible but their faces were covered.

The second headline read: 'President Xu in her Handsome mysterious boyfriend's arms.'

There was a photo of her hugging Ye Jie attached yet again the faces were missed because Ye Jie had buried his face in her neck and she had hidden in his chest.

The third headline was also about Xu Mey but not with Ye Jie but rather with Xu Liqing. It read: 'Xu Enterprises' precious Princess, Ms Xu Liqing turned hysterical with Vintage Gems President Xu.'

The details were, that apparently instead of apologizing to President Xu, Xu Liqing tried to act bossy with her and when President Xu didn't pay heed to her, Xu Liqing turned into a crazed person who attacked President Xu with a broken shard but it was a good thing that President Xu's assistant came between them. Thankfully, President Xu was not physically injured but she received a traumatic blow. Also, her assistant is still hospitalized from the injuries she received from Xu Liqing.

There were plenty of photos to prove the words but Xu Mey's face was not made clear in any one of them just like they had planned.

She placed the phone against her ear and said, "What are you worried about?"

"You and bro, duh!" He replied.

"Relax! I'll make all those headlines about me and Ah Jie, go away. Geez! Don't fret or you'll regret."

"How are you going to do that?" He asked.

"Why don't you leave that to me?" She said. "Now I'm hanging up."

"Oh wait!" She heard Ye Jun's voice again.

"What?"

"I heard that Xu Liqing didn't get home last night and my internal sources say that Ms Fu Lan is going to look for you about this matter." After a pause, he added, "Sis, what did you do with Xu Liqing?"

Xu Mey smirked to herself. "Let her come then. I'd like to see what Fu Lan can do to me. As for her precious daughter..." She laughed. "Everyone will know about her in a short while. You have plenty of news to look forward to my little brother."

Ye Jun was even more worried now. "Sis, I have a question."

"Just ask."

"What made Xu Liqing act exactly as you wanted her to?" Ye Jun's been thinking about it since yesterday but couldn't come to a conclusion.

Xu Mey didn't reply instantly. "Let's just say it like this, I did exactly what she did to me once." Ye Jun didn't know what she was talking about but he knew that Xu Mey was not an unreasonable person. No matter what she did, she must have a reason for that.

Xu Mey hung up the phone as a memory flashed through her mind. 'Once you made me a drug addict, today I'll prove you one for the whole world.'

She dialled another number and before anyone could speak, she said, "I need help."

"You don't have to ask, Mey-Mey. I've already taken all the necessary precautions. No one will be able to look for President Xu anymore."

"Thanks, Qiao!" She was really blessed to have Li Qiao. She didn't even need to say it and he had already done everything.

"Just take care of yourself." He said softly with gentleness.

"You won't ask me to stop causing troubles like these in the future?"

"Of course not! In fact, I want you to do these reckless acts even more." He replied in a pleasant tone.

"Huh? Why?" She frowned.

"First, I'll get a way to take care of you and second, our Mey-Mey needs to act like other girls her age. So, don't hesitate at all. If your heart says it, just do it." He adviced.

"Why don't you take your own advice with Yu Kim?" She asked while scowling.

"Do I need to tell you?" He asked rhetorically.

Xu Mey's shoulders slumped. "No... You don't have to."

"Take care of yourself. I'll call you later." Xu Mey knew that he was avoiding the talk about himself and Yu Kim. She didn't pursue the matter herself. Now it was not the right time. She had a lot on her plates at the moment.

She walked back towards the bedroom when she received a message from Ye Jun.

'Sis, HOW DID YOU MANAGE TO TAKE IT DOWN SO EASILY?'

She typed a reply.

'First, what's with the CAPS letters? Second, I have people who care about me as well. You're not the only one who has a caring brother.'

The reply came instantly.

'HEY! Sis, I'm telling you my brother is the best person okay?'

She smiled and typed.

'That he surely is.'

Ye Jun fell down his bed when he read the last text. He was like, 'SERIOUSLY? I just woke up and you're serving me dog food? STOP TORTURING ME LIKE THIS.'
