Chapter 170: Being So Difficult

CHAPTER 170

The last thing Ye Cheng wanted was for her to feel bad about this whole thing. None of these was ever her fault and he would have preferred if she did not eat herself up first.

"Do not be. Everything would play out very well in time. I still haven't forgotten their betrayal and all their attacks. Chairman Zhang would not know what hit him when the time came."

"How about sending them a warning?" Yi Wang Lei quickly interjected.

"What do you propose?" Ye Cheng asked his friend, shifting his attention to him.

<Yi Wang Lei: Oh, you would love my plan.>

By the next day, Li Jing set out to the supermarket to get the things she needed for making the dinner she promised Ye Cheng and even though he had been annoying her, she still felt like keeping her word as and so she did.

Surprisingly though, the naughty CEO did not forget as well.

When it was already 3 pm, her phone began to ring. She had thought that she would call him and let him know before she was done cooking but to her surprise, he called her to remind her in case she had forgotten of her promise.

"Hello, Li Jing."

"Good afternoon."

"I hope someone hasn't forgotten about our dinner?"

"Umm, considering the events of the last few days, I was thinking now wasn't a perfect time to have dinner."

"What?" Ye Cheng could not believe his ears. Did she just cancel their supposed dinner just because of the problems of the company?

Even if the company was going to go bankrupt the next day, wouldn't they eat to survive? Was she going back on her words now?

Ye Cheng mood became sour instantly and his voice turned even colder than what it was already.

"Yes. Well, things aren't going on smoothly and we just lost an important project."

"Li Jing! Do you hope to test my patience?" Ye Cheng's voice gave off a warning feel to it to threaten her just in case she was pulling his legs but being the perfect naïve actress that she was, Li Jing did not budge.

If he was seeing her, then that would have been the time she would have given herself away that she was lying but now, he was nowhere near her.

So she could lie all she wanted.

"Li Jing. You gave your word and I was looking forward to it."

"Bullseye. Why did you pretend like you did not love my previous cooking and acted like I was punishing you instead?"

"I was just joking. You see, the day is still young, I can get you to the supermarket so you can pick whatever you want and need to make dinner. Please reconsider."

"No, I planned this as a victory dinner but seeing as things did not go according to plan, then let's just reschedule."

"Li Jing! It was not a victory dinner but a thank-you dinner. Why are you being so difficult?"

"Am I?" She scrunched her nose up as she used her index finger to tap away at her chin, repeatedly.

"Come on. I would be at your place by 6 to go grocery shopping."

"Okay. Fine."

"Nice."

Immediately the call went dead, Li Jing looked at her phone screen just to make sure first that he was no longer on the call and once that was clarified, she burst into a fit of laughter.

"Hahahah…."

She was glad that the cold CEO, could actually be taunted this way. 'Way to go, Li Jing.' She mentally praised herself for her small feat of triumph.

Quickly, she dropped her phone and proceeded to the kitchen to continue with her cooking.

At exactly 6 pm, her phone began to ring again and she went to check who the caller was.

'He is so primped and proper and always keeps to time, doesn't he?'

"Hello."

"Come downstairs, I am outside waiting for you."

"Umm, mind coming upstairs for a minute?" Li Jing asked. She was already done cooking but considering she did not inform Ye Cheng about it, he knew nothing about it.

She decided to surprise him and give him something he least expected. What better way than this to do that?"

"Why?"

"I need help getting something. I am not so tall, please."

"What if I wasn't around? Couldn't you just climb a chair to reach it?" Ye Cheng asked. He was finding it suspicious and thought that perhaps she wanted to look for a way to delay him so they would not go shopping and then they would cancel the dinner plans.

Unknown to him, his hunch was right but he was very far from the truth.

"Are you being serious right now?" Li Jing could not believe him. Was he joking with her? "Ye Cheng! Okay, do not worry. Since you did not want to come, I would call Tang Zixin or Luo Jinhai and ask for their help."

"Li Jing."

"What? Oh, I know. I would call Jack and ask for his help in getting things done and probably he would be so glad."

"Don't you dare call them. This is my dinner."

"Then come over and help me out. Besides the chairs are heavy for me to move on my own."

He was getting tired to hear her nag and preferred to just do as she requested. If it came down to it, he would plead her to go out shopping with him and still get his dinner anyway.

"Fine. I would be up in three."

"Make that two."

"Li Jing, are you timing…" He did not get to finish his sentence when Li Jing ended the call and proceeded to check everything she had set before he came.

She knew she was playing with fire but who cares? She didn't and she wanted to get burnt. Even though she saw him the previous day, her heart leapt with joy at the occasion that was about to unfold.
