Chapter 556 – Caught: Lying Li Jing [Bonus ]

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

CHAPTER 555

"Yes. Sometimes, it is best to teach them a lesson so that there would not be the next time. At times leaving them is the worst mistake. They will feel my wrath."

"Great. Meanwhile, I need to figure out something."

"What is?"

"My foster father Lin Chun."

"What about him?"

"Since I have no memory of the past, I need to figure out where he got me from and if it's an orphanage, where are the papers and where did they see me. Getting these answers would most definitely lead us to where mum is."

"Brilliant. But we must tread carefully for now and not let anyone know of our findings."

"Fine."

***

Just as her grandfather said, when Ye Cheng got home, the first thing he asked when he took a single look at her was…

"And who hurt my baby enough to make her shed tears?"

"Huh?"

Hearing her scoff, he knew she was aiming at hiding it from him and he shook his head.

"You know I know you right? Or you want to deny the fact that you cried to me?"

Well, it was onions that entered into my eye when I was making noodles," Li Jing lied.

"Hmm," he scoffed again and let her be.

Once he was done changing up, he walked over to her on the bed and sat down beside her. She did not know what to say at that moment because all she could think of was that he bought her lies and was accepting it.

"Look at me, my love," Ye Cheng ordered softly, not giving her any room to figure out what was on his mind.

Obediently she did as she was told and turned around to see him. The second they came face to face, he pulled his face closer to hers, allowing his eyes to drop close as his lips came closer than before to hers.

Judging by his actions, she knew he wanted to kiss her and she too followed his lead, doing the same.

Unknown to her, he watched her through half-closed lashes and when she had her lips parted for his waiting lips and tongue, he allowed his lips to go lower than hers so his nose was closer to her lips.

After a few seconds, she noticed that their lips did not touch and looked up at him only to find that he was staring right back at her. The desire she saw earlier now gone leaving him with his normal eyes.

"Honey…"

"Shhh…" Li Jing pouted at him. Why was he hushing her rather than kissing her?

"What is wrong?"

"Shh… Let me look at you. I want to."

She pulled back, attempting to look away to avoid him staring into her eyes but unfortunately for her, he anticipated all of her movements and snaked a hand easily around her waist and pulled her body closer to his.

"Huh…" she gasped, her eyes going wide as she stared into his darker ones. Yes, they remained brown but the dark glint that followed, sending a shiver down her spine and making him look more deadly and breathtaking all at once did not fail to pass her attention.

"Ye Cheng," she called out softly. Unaware that she even did due to how mesmerized she was by his intense gaze.

"Ah, my lovely wifey is now learning how to lie to her hubby. How should I punish her?"

"Enh? Lie? Who? Me?"

It was like a spell just broke and she was free from the hold entangling her. "Hmm… Is that so?"

"Yes, why would you feel like I am lying to you?"

"Well, come clean now and I would not have to punish you for lying to me."

"Enh?"

Before her brain could figure things out, he decided to make things difficult for her.

Bringing his lips closer to hers one more time he lightly pecked her and then pulled back before she could react unconsciously and left her hanging.

Feeling the loss of his lips, Li Jing whined, causing him to laugh at her predicament.

"Not funny, baby."

"I never said it was my love."

"Then why are you laughing?" she inquired.

"Well, I am technically sad that my love is lying to me. You are hurting me, my love."

Seeing that he was bent on finding out and she knew that the longer she prolonged it the more hurt he would become.

"Fine. But how…"

"Okay, let me tell you what I caught just now. You just lied to me more than once and it isn't fair. We said no hiding anything from each other, babe."

'I know. I am sorry. It is just…"

"Shhh…" he placed his index finger on her lips, silently her forcefully. "Let me tell you how I caught you."

"Okay, how?"

"You cooked using onions huh? Hmm, I did not smell any onions when I came close to your lips just now. It isn't on your breath neither is the noodles there as well. So you basically did not cook noodles nor come in contact with onions and do not get me started with you bathed and brushed your teeth."

She chuckled. He caught her red-handed and did not give her any room to lie further.

"So now it boils down to the real reason why you cried. So tell me, baby. Why?"

"I…" she paused and gazed into his eyes. She was going to tell him the truth but not yet. At least not the entire truth yet. "It was because of my mother. I miss her and granddad and I got talking about it all. A loveless marriage, and stuff."

"Oh, I see. But wait… he visited you at home?"

"No. In the office," she explained.

"I see. Well, you guys need your moment I guess."

"We do."

"Anything else I need to know?" He inquired once more.

"Hmm," she shook her head at him.

"Sure?"

"Yeah, at least for now. Trust me. I am just trying to get to the bottom of some stuff. Once I get something good, I would let you know. Please."

"Fine."
