Mr. CEO Loves The Devilish Beauty Chapter 150 - First Love

-Coming Back To The Present-
Ye Jie's been listening attentively to Ye Jun for all this while. It wasn't a surprise for Ye Jie that Fu Shuang fell for Xu Mey just at first sight. She had that allure to capture anyone. But she was his and that couldn't be changed. He won't let it CHANGE!
"What are you trying to say here, little brother?" He asked languidly. Just because Xu Mey said that she likes him, he had trust in himself and more so, in her.
"Bro, how are you so relaxed? Fu Shuang is not a simple person. He always gets the things that he wants."
"And my Xu Mey is not a THING. Don't forget. She's not my girlfriend. She's my WIFE." Ye Jie said.
"Why are you not getting it? Sis Mey is Fu Shuang's, first love!" Ye Jun exclaimed to get his words to Ye Jie's head.
"What do you mean? Didn't you just that Xu Mey just looked like his first love?"
"Yes, until yesterday, I believed that as well." Ye Jun felt another burden weighing down on his shoulders. And then he explained in detail.
*Flashback to last night*
Fu Shuang was drinking at a club and had called Ye Jun out. When Ye Jun reached the club, Fu Shuang was already quite drunk.
"What's wrong with you? Why are you drinking again?" Ye Jun asked while taking a seat opposite him at the sofa.
"You're here!" Fu Shuang managed to say and barely lifted his eyes to look at Ye Jun. "I'm drinking my sorrows away."
Ye Jun scowled. "What do you mean?"
"Young Master Jun, do you know about the news going around about Xu Liqing and President Xu?" Fu Shuang slurped a bit.
"Yes, I know. I'm keeping a close eye on that news." Ye Jun said.
"Of course, you would keep an eye on that news. It involves Xu Liqing." Fu Shuang's voice quavered a bit.
"What do I have to do with Xu Liqing?" Ye Jun said in a displeased tone.
"Xu Liqing's step-sister is your sis-in-law. And I know how much your sis-in-law hates Xu Liqing."
"You know my sis-in-law?" Ye Jun pried.
Fu Shuang snickered. "Do I know Xu Mey? Yes. I do. Why wouldn't I know her? I remember that naive chubby little girl who used to hang around me calling me Shuang-Ge, Shuang-Ge." He sighed. "Don't kill me but my first love was your sis-in-law."
Fu Shuang's words were akin to thunderbolts for Ye Jun. "What?" He questioned.
Fu Shuang leaned back in his seat. "I couldn't help it back then. We were little kids but she was so innocent and adorable that I couldn't stop my heart from loving her. But now..." He didn't continue.
But Ye Jun was not ready to let him stop here. "Now what?"
"Now, she must hate me the most. Oh, wait! She does hate me the most. I promised to protect her and stay with her. But I couldn't protect her. Not from my Aunt or from Xu Liqing. Do you know that I haven't seen Xu Mey in the past 16 years? Somehow, I don't feel bad for all that's happening to Xu Liqing. She deserved it. But I can't say this anyone else other than you 'cause at the end of the day, she's my cousin."
"What did you do to make her hate you so much?" Ye Jun asked again.
"I left her alone. Even if I couldn't protect her from my Aunt. I was supposed to protect her from the world. I promised her that I will. But I didn't." Fu Shuang was buried in self-loathing while Ye Jun was dazed at the side.
Coming back to the present...
Ye Jie was staring at his little brother with a murderous gaze.
"What have I done wrong?" Ye Jun felt wronged by seeing that expression.
"He told you all that and you didn't even do anything about it?" Ye Jie was seething in fury at the moment.
Ye Jun raised his hands in defense and went on, "I did. I did. I actually punched him before leaving the club." Although he said that, he didn't tell Ye Jie that after punching Fu Shuang he actually heard Fu Shuang say,
"I wish I could go back in time and save my innocent Xiao Mey. But I want to save President Xu, now since I can't go back in time. She's stuck in my mind because I want to bring a smile on her face. I want to save President Xu from whatever she's running from because I couldn't protect Xiao Mey." He took a pause to laugh in self-mocking. "Do you know why I'm drinking, today?" Ye Jun shook his head. "Because I can't seem to remember what Xu Mey looked like back then. I do remember that she was small, a bit chubby but adorable but I don't remember her face. No matter how hard I'm trying, I can't seem to remember her face."
Ye Jun knew that if he told that part of the story to Ye Jie, his brother would most definitely strangle him to death. Thinking about it, he gulped but stayed quiet.
Ye Jie reclined back in his seat and raked his fingers through his hair. What worried him was not the fact that Fu Shuang had feelings for Xu Mey. His worry came from the words she once said to him, "Without the presence of love, hate is impossible. Only the people we love or care about have the ability to hurt us emotionally."
He pinched his brows tiredly. Ye Jie figured that Xu Mey had hate for Fu Shuang but whether it was caused from love or care was unknown. And the only person who could explain everything to him was Xu Mey herself.
