Mr Indifferent CEO, Be Careful With My Heart

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

CHAPTER 544

"Protect her at all cost."

Raising his right hand a bit above his head, Ye Cheng's face turned serious and a bit cold too as he looked Lin Zian straight in the eyes and swore.

"I swear to always protect her with my life and put her first above everything. She is my heart, my blood, my life, my soul and everything that belongs to me and pertaineth to me."

"Good. Now she is yours. I am sure that you would do the right thing always and ensure n harm whatsoever comes to her."

"Yes sir."

Great. Now shall we please enjoy our lunch?" He stretched his hand a bit showing Ye Cheng what he was talking about. "You see, we left the women speechless. That is the power of a man."

"And the power of a woman?" Lin Huilang refuted.

"Well, they suffer much but a woman multitasks and that is why she is who she is. Strong, fighting spirit caring, loving and patient."

"Thanks, gramps. As you said, let us dine." Raising her wine glass, she said, "Cheers, to family."

"Cheers," they all followed her and did the same.

'This is epic.' Li An thought to herself as she watched the happy family.

By the time everything was done, they could not eat desserts again as they were all full with the sumptuous meal that she made.

So everyone retired to their various homes early.

"See you again, Li Jing." Lin Huilang embraced her. "I hope we can do this again soon."

"Most definitely auntie. We would. This time around, you would bring uncle and the twins."

"Definitely. I would head to my place tomorrow. He would be mad that I did not inform him of the dinner but I know he is mega busy."

"Sigh, auntie that was not fair. I bet uncle would have created time for his favourite grand-niece."

"He would though. Well, that was why I asked you to package some of the food for me. I would send it to him and tell him it is from his favourite…"

"Grand niece," Li Jing completed for her and soon they burst into a peal of laughter at themselves.

"I see they are enjoying themselves," Lin Zian voiced out from where he, Ye Cheng and Li An stood.

"Of course. I know how she is close with auntie. The two have literally turned into best friends," Ye Cheng added.

"Hmm, but her friend, Yin Lifen, I doubt if she would ever agree to anyone taking her place with Li Jing."

"True."

"Where is she by the way? I thought she would have been here."

"Well, Li Jing just invited you and my mum here."

"I see. Perhaps Yin Lifen has so much going for her."

"Perhaps. Well, till next time."

"Thank you once again for hosting us," Lin Zian appreciated extending his hands to him. "I look forward to more get-togethers, perhaps in my place next time."

'It would be nice to know where my grandfather-in-law lives."

"Definitely." He peeled his gaze from Ye Cheng and looked at Li An. "And why are you quiet?"

"Me?" she asked placing a hand on her chest.

"Yes, you. Be free and interact with us or them."

"No, those two look like they have lots to catch up on. It would be rude interrupting them."

"Nonsense. I know Lin Huilang. She would be thrilled to have you there and Li Jing, she would be happy bonding. You see, she never really enjoyed the feel of a mother during her stay with the Li family but with you, I think she feels a sense of belonging."

"Well, I would never maltreat her or any other person's child cause I would be mad if mine was treated in such a way too," Li An explained.

"Good, so I am handing her over to you. Please shower her with your motherly love. It is a request and plea from a sad grandfather."

"No worries. I would do so. Thank you."

"Anytime," turning to li jing and Lin Huilang, he yelled. "Time to go."

"Yes, grandfather. We are done!"

"Actually we were waiting for you to be through," Lin Huilang half-lied.

"As if. I know you two. You were made for each other."

"Grandfather…"

"Oh sorry, I forgot her husband was here. You see do not snatch her from him."

"Hahaa… I was part of the people that pushed them together. So I have the right to enjoy her company hehe," Lin Huilang yelled in return.

"My wifeeeeeee!"

"Hahhhahhaaa…"

They burst out laughing. Looking at Ye Chwng calling for Li Jing like a small kid calling ir his mother was a sight worth watching.

"I am here, honey. I am not leaving you."

"Not even for me?" Lin Huilang inquired.

"Nope, not even for you, hahaha… He is my husband, auntie."

"These youngsters. Anyways, enjoy him. I would not fight with him over you. I know you would definitely miss your favourite grand auntie."

"Do not be like that. Now you are making me miss you already."

"My Love, how can you miss someone else? Aren't I enough?"

"You are." By now, Ye Cheng had left her grandfather and his mother and sauntered over to where she was with Lin Huilang.

Ignoring her auntie, Ye Cheng pulled her close to him but not before kissing her on the lips to make Huilang jealous. After their sweet moment, he looked at Lin Huilang.

"You see, auntie, you cannot do this to her but I can. So definitely she would always want me."

"Cheesy and naughty CEO, Ye Cheng is what you are."

"Proudly accepting it."

"Okay, that's a wrap. Let's head home or Li Jing and Huilang would not let any of us rest today," Lin Zian called out to them.

"I second the motion. Bye, auntie. Wifey, let's go in." his smile was uncanny, accentuating his lovely eyes as he looked at Li Jing.

"Fine, you won. Auntie, bye. My regards to uncle and the twins."

"I would. See you later and be good."

"Definitely."

Everyone hugged, shook hands and they all left in their respective vehicles, leaving the couple outside.

"Now my love, I think I need to make love to you properly so next time you would not miss anyone."
