ETERNAL LOVE : A LOVE STORY

After parting from the embrace, Xie Ming sat on the sofa while Liwei settled on the opposite of her. 

She was serving some tea for him as well when she heard his voice, " What were you reading before that you were in a daze? You didn't even realize my arrival and got startled like this." he chuckled as he remembered her funny face. 

Xie Ming pursed her lips and glared up at him warning him to shut up. She felt irritated just thinking the way he startled her and laughed at her reaction. 

Liwei received her warning and shut his mouth well. He pursed his lips trying to hold his laughter. But her reaction was too cute to forget. 

He saw the magazine which has fallen on the floor earlier when he startled her. He squinted his eyes as he slowly picked up the magazine that has been fallen earlier. 

He held the magazine in his hand as his expression darkened seeing the cover picture on it. 

Then he glanced at Xie Ming who was mixing sipping her tea. She looked up at him and saw his questioning gaze. 

Xie Ming: " -_-" 

She was startled seeing his cold and domineering cold expression. Just now, he was laughing and rolling and suddenly his aura became domineering and cold. 

She fluttered her deep black eyelashes at him and asked innocently, " What's wrong? Don't you want tea?" she pointed towards the tea in front of him from her gaze. 

She thought that he doesn't want the tea that's why he was behaving mysteriously. She has no idea why his mood has changed so drastically.

Liwei looked at her with his rigid expressions and took a deep breath before speaking, " Xie Ming. Answer my question honestly." his voice was low but it was enough to show his sour mood. 

Xie Ming was surprised when she heard his question. His sudden serious expressions were making her anxious. 

She has no idea what he wanted to ask. She blinked her eyes at him in confusion and nodded her head lightly. 

Liwei's eyes faltered seeing her reaction. He found her adorable when she blinked her eyes and nodded her head with her cheeks puffed up. 

Her rosy lips were looking tempting and adorable that he wanted to eat them up. 

He controlled his temptation to kiss her right away and cleared his throat and asked sternly, " Why were you looking at the magazine in a daze earlier? Do you like handsome man that much?" his voice raised a little when he asked the question. 

It was the man's fashion magazine. All the men in the magazine were showing off their body or their charms. 

On the main cover, Jian Yan's photo was plastered in which he was half-naked as he was not wearing on top and was only wearing a black colored trousers. 

His charm and sexiness was obvious in that picture. What bothered him was that most of the pictures in the magazine were filled with him and Xie Ming was so much into it while reading that she was unaware of her surroundings. 

This made him feel slightly angry and jealous. He believed that he was not a jealous kind of man who would be petty to get jealous so easily.

He does not doubt her, it's just he does not want her to look at another man's body. 

He was himself very handsome and the youngest CEO in the city. Girls are dying to be with him while his own wife was checking out other men. 

He felt his pride hurt. He wanted her to look at him while she was busy checking out other men. 

Xie Ming was confused when she heard his question. He looked at him in confusion and look at him like he was a fool. 

She looked into his eyes and said straightly, " Yes. I like handsome guys." the look on her face was slightly confused as she could not understand why did he ask that question? 

Liwei: " - _-" 

Liwei was speechless when he heard her saying yes. If she likes handsome men than how could she say so straightforwardly?

He was baffled as he had nothing to ask her. He was angry but did not have any words. 

His expression became gloomy when he heard her words. He felt upset that she likes to see another man's body but never looks at him directly. 

His expressions were complicated and felt betrayed. But her next words made him stare at her in disbelief. 

" of course I like handsome men. That's why I like you," she said while picking up her tea to drink as it may get cold. 

Liwei looked up at her and stared at her in disbelief. He did not expect this answer from her. 

His expression softened when he heard her words as a smile formed on his lips. He was smiling with his eyes as he asks her, " Am I handsome?" 

He was behaving like a small child who needs compliments and wants attention. 

Xie Ming was speechless seeing him asking for compliments himself. She has no idea since when this man became so childish. 

She cannot believe that he was the same guy who rules over the business world and everyone was scared of his strong and manly aura. 

This man changed completely in front of her. He was being shameless enough to ask for compliments directly. 

She wanted to laugh at his antics but pursed her lips to not laugh. She didn't say anything and nodded in agreement. 

She cannot deny the fact that he was handsome. He has a perfect body even though he does not get much time for workout and always does office work. 

His face was like a piece of art. His deep jawline and his long nose bridge with fuller and moist lips was no less than an art. 

She cannot deny when he asked her that if he was handsome? Because he is handsome and the best man in this world. However, she can't say these words on his face. 

Liwei's smile grew wider when she nodded in affirmation. His heart melted when she suddenly called him handsome. 

He felt that he was becoming like a child in front of her who wants her acknowledgment and her attention. 

At this time he almost forgot the reason why he asked that question. However, when he looked down and saw the magazine in his hands, he remembered the reason for him asking that question. 

His expression again turned slightly uncomfortable but it was not dark as before. He looked up and directly ask, " Why were you looking at this magazine before with much thought? You didn't even realize my existence while looking at the men in this magazine." he grumpily complained her. 

Xie Ming looked over at the magazine and understood why he was behaving weirdly. 

At this, she wanted to laugh but couldn't do so as he was looking at her with wronged expression. 

She was reading that magazine, but at that point, her mind distracted and she started to think about many things and she was just holding that magazine. 

Practically, she didn't even read the magazine and only held it in her hands while flipping the pages. But this man, has taken it seriously and now questioning her because of this? 

She looked at him and 'tsk' in her heart, ' this man is so easy to make him jealous.' 

She could not understand how could he get jealous just because she was looking at the magazine? 

She cleared her throat and said, " I was just reading that magazine for fun. And when you came from behind, I wasn't reading it. I was just flipping through the pages while thinking about something. That's why I sense your arrival." she said directly without going around with her words. 

Liwei looked at her and noticed her expressions. He could see that she was speaking the truth. Though he knows that she wasn't the type to get interested in anyone easily, but he was slightly jealous seeing her looking at the pictures of another man, that too the one who likes her. 

He has noticed the other day in the mall when he met Jian Yan and could see that he has some feelings for her. 

He did not like him because of this reason. And now he saw his half-naked picture in the magazine that she was reading, so he felt annoyed and jealous. 

However, when she completed her words, she looked at him sternly," But how could you question me like this just because of it? Do you think I am the kind of woman to fall for any man I see? " 

Now when she thinks about it, she felt slightly annoyed. He was questioning her like he does not believe her.
