Mr. CEO Loves The Devilish Beauty Chapter 107 - I've Missed You

-At Tokyo International Airport-
"So..." Ye Jie started as he looked at his best friend's green eyes. "Erm... Take care of yourself."
He heard her deep laugh. "Do I look like someone who wouldn't?" She asked.
"Yes... You do... Ru'er, The one thing you never cared about in your life is your own life." Ye Jie reminded her.
"That used to be my old self. From the time I have these green eyes," She pointed at her eyes. "I have stopped running after death desperately." She smiled bitterly at the memory.
"Ru?" Ye Jie called her name making her raise her head to look at him. "I won't ask what happened back then."
"And I should give you a reward for that," Ru said as she smiled evilly. She came closer to his ear and whispered, "The one you love and one you're trying to love, both are the same person." With that, she waved with an amused smile looking at the frown on his face.
"What do you mean?" He asked.
"What will be the fun, if I said it that easily?" She said ambiguously.
"Let's just say that this friend of yours is using you as bait to see whether the thing you call love really exist or not. You once said love finds its way. Let's see whether yours does or not." She turned around and left him standing there with a confused look.
When he heard the announcement, Ye Jie ran to catch his flight while Ru didn't turn around to look at him. She sat in her SUV as her assistant opened the door for her. "Chairman?" Her assistant called to get her attention. "What game are you playing?"
"What gave you the idea that I'm playing a game?" She said as her voice texture turned back to masculine.
"You made me deliver some herbs to Ms. Xu Mey and the man who was with you just now was the one who received the package. It clearly means that you know both of them but they both have no idea about it." Her assistant was an observant person and he picked up the details easily.
Ru smiled pleasantly. "I'm playing the game of hide and seek. Not that I don't want to let them know about their connection to me but I can't."
"Why not?"
"Because if I revealed their connection to me. They both will figure out the old connection they have with each other. Now, how can I let that happen so easily? My dear best friend once challenged me that he'll recognize that girl no matter where she is and how she is. Now, I want him to recognize her by himself. It should be easy. After all, they are married now." Ru explained looking out the window with an amused smile gracing her beautiful face.
Meanwhile, Ye Jie was thinking about Ru's words in the plane. 'The one I love? And the one I'm trying to love? What does she mean? The one I'm trying to love is... Xu Mey. But the one I already love? Lu Yuhan?' He shook his head. 'No way... Lu Yuhan could only be someone I loved. But who's the one I still love then?'
Ye Jie ruffled his own hair and held his head in his hands. "Are you okay, young man?" He heard a clear voice from beside and lifted his head. The middle-aged lady beside him was clad in a black business suit with her hair tied in an updo. She looked poised and elegant. But what caught Ye Jie's attention was her clear glistening eyes. She gave Ye Jie a questioning look.
"I'm fine... Thank you." Ye Jie replied courteously thinking about how much of an idiot he must have looked like to her.
"You seem to be frustrated to me." She commented making Ye Jie look at her again. Ye Jie gave her a surprised look. "Don't look at me like that. I'm a psychiatrist. It's in my nature to see what people are trying to hide."
Ye Jie nodded lightly indicating that he understood. "It's nothing much... Just something my best friend said and it confused me a lot. I can't seem to find an answer." Ye Jie replied nonchalantly while shrugging his shoulders. While why he was talking to a stranger was completely out his own understanding.
"If it's that confusing then don't think about it." She advised with a beautiful smile on her face. "Sometimes, when answers seem out of reach than we should take a break. Give it some time and the answer you're looking for will be right before you."
Ye Jie nodded. Ye Jie thought for while before he said, "Since you're a doctor, can I ask a question?" The lady beside him nodded giving him permission. "How to open a person's heart who wants to hide every single pain from the world?" Ye Jie was talking about Xu Mey.
"Em... If the past has brought enough pain to make that person close up than it's a bit serious." She remarked as Ye Jie's face fell. But she continued. "But it's not impossible." Ye Jie had a tinge of hope in his eyes as he looked at her. "That person needs someone to give enough reasons to open up. And that's not possible through just words. Actions are also very important." She took a pause. "May I ask, how are you related to that person?"
Ye Jie pursed his lips and decided to answer honestly. After all, they say that you should be honest with two people in life; your lawyer and your doctor. "My wife... She has been through something in her past that made her want to shut her heart up."
The psychiatrist nodded her head. "Then what your wife needs the most right now is you... You need to show with your actions that you cherish her and trust her. That way, it will give the patient a sense of security that she needs. In most cases, the closed up people or loners tend to want a person to open up to. A person who listens to them but doesn't judge them." She took a deep breath. "In your case, your wife might even be scared of losing you. Give her a reassurance."
"Thank you so much,..."
She smiled. "It's Alice."
"Dr. Alice. Thank you. Really I think you're right. She's just scared of my judgment and I need to get that thought out of her mind." Ye Jie said with a smile. Dr. Alice looked at his smiling face and her eyes stuck. In the end, she gave a sad smile with a shake of her head.
Before coming to the airport, Xu Mey made sure to remove the huge gauze from her ankle and took a smaller bandage to cover her stitches while she wore bell-bottom jeans with a white top and a grey blazer over it. She did everything she could to cover her ankle as much as she could.
Ye Jie's assistant Qi Guan picked Xu Mey up from the Peach Estates and brought her to the airport precisely at 9:30 pm. There were only a few people at the VIP arrivals when she came. She was looking around in a daze.
Her daze was broken when she heard her own name with that familiar voice making her turn her head. She looked at Ye Jie who was briskly walking towards her with a wide grin on his face. Xu Mey looked at him in a daze and her daze was broken when he came closer, pulled her in his embrace and whispered close to her ear, "I've missed you."
