Chapter 727: Come To My House

**************

CHAPTER 727

At the end of that day’s work, Chen’an did not wait a minute to chat with anyone and raced out of the company in speed.

Her colleagues had thought she was going crazy from her edgy she was that day but it did not matter to her.

Only one person was all she needed to see to quench this fast beat of her heart.

Arriving at her home, Chen’an steadied her breathing first. She knew he may not be at home give or take, buts he was scared.

After what seemed like forever, she placed her hand on the door and knocked. Some seconds passed she got no response and she repeated her action.

.....

This time around though, it felt hollow. She let her hand drop to the door knob and turned on it.

Easily it pushed open revealing a clean apartment save for the scattered chair in front of her.

Her jaw dropped as her eyes fell open in shock. Standing before her was one of the chairs in the dining area with a little white letter to show.

“With shaky feet, Cheng’an took a step into the living room, shutting the door behind her as she aimed for the letter.

She tore through it till she found the content.

It was a simple white thick paper with one phrase and a name on it.

‘Come to my house. Ye Cheng.’

Her eyes remained glued on the message while her brain failed to show her any form of mercy and repeated those words in her mind continuously.

She spent the next three minutes just staring at the piece of paper while her brain chanted, and thought about the next step and course of action.

Several thoughts spiralled in her mind at an alarming pace. What could be going wrong?

She knew she had to figure out what he wanted sooner or later but when she fell in love, she pushed this mission to the back of her mind.

Her fingers balled into tight fists at her side. This battle just involved her.

After that, she sucked in a lung full of breath and dropped her hands. ‘I do not know why but he is innocent and I believe so, Ye Cheng.’

She turned around and stormed out of her apartment quickly.

How could they come into her house and steal him from her? She could not accept it and she was not going to.

By the time it was evening, Ye Cheng cast his gaze down on his watch to check the time. A wry dry smile formed at the corners of his lips.

For a week now, his men had kept a proper tab on her house. They waited patiently close to Ren’s car, to force the young man to remain in hiding.

And once when they had been monitoring her, just in case he came to attack her, they noticed she had someone in her apartment.

Since that they, they hovered around secretly in the neighbouring house, bribing the inhabitants to let the spy and to their amazement, indeed he was there.

By the time they first planned to attack which was the last Friday, she had arrived suddenly. So they aborted the mission but kept a close watch.

Ever since that day, the couple had been together, basking in their lovemaking, oblivious to the danger at hand.

Up until this morning when she left that they carried out the plan.

“Your accomplice is going to be here soon,” Ye Cheng announced.

Walking in, he proceeded to sit down on one of the couches in the living room. “Any moment from now,” he added.

“Whatever you want with me, leave Chenny out of it, Ye Cheng,” Ren hissed.

He had both his hands tied behind his back by the wrist as his whole body was equally and properly secured to the long chair he was kept to sit on.

Ever since he was captured, he had been like this, suffering questioning from Ye Cheng’s men but being who he was, he kept mute.

Now, Ye Cheng was using Chen’an to play this game and he did not like it. Right from time, he was the one who brought her into this.

And loving her, shouldn’t have been part of the mission but he was human and he did not guard his feelings well enough.

He hoped she would not love him for her sake but when she started opening up and enjoying his company, feelings began to grow.

He heaved out a sigh before hanging his head low. It was useless to speak to Ye Cheng at this point.

“Chenny? Hmm,” Ye Cheng’s lips tugged upwards. “Now you have pet names. How sweet.”

Suddenly, one of the men who earlier came into Chen’an’s house walked in. They had used the same side living room, different from the main one as before.

He did not want Li Jing coming to grace the place with her presence and find such a thing.

“Sir, she is here,” he announced.

“Is that so? Please, do usher her in,” Ye Cheng ordered, all the while his eyes gloomed over Ren’s figure.

Today, he was going to find out all about this man and his stalking. And from how skilled he evaded most of the bullets, he could tell he was no ordinary man.

No sooner had the man left, than he returned with Chen’an following behind him. He came to a stop beside Ye Cheng and bowed before him.

“She is here,” the young man announced once more.

A satisfied smile graced Ye Cheng’s face from the news. “Hello, Chen’an,” he greeted, getting to his feet.

Turning around, Ye Cheng cast a cold glance at the mighty, clever culprit. True enough, she was because the one person he was careful in protecting her for, was the one she had as a lover.

She hung her head low like a child caught in a wrong act, too scared to look him in the eyes.

Without being told, she knew what this all looked like and she was sorry it came to this but she had her reasons.

“Sir.”

“Raise your head and look me in the eyes.”
