CHAPTER 189

He was not ready to do business stuff right now. He just needed to make sure she was alright.

'Why is it now that things began to make sense once more that I am now suffering all these? I really need to deal some idiots a lesson.'

He quickly took his phone out and dialed Han Qing Qing's number. "Any news?"

"No sir."

"What is taking them so long to find the fool that released those pictures to the internet?"

"Sir, we are working on it currently. They used a very good hacker but we would have everything out within the hour. Meanwhile, we are working to take them all down."

"Do it faster, Qing Qing. And once the imbecile is found, make sure he is thought a lesson he would never forget and also inform Yi Wang Lei to send Chairman Zhang a present for his daughter's misbehavior from me."

"Yes sir."

"I have condoled nonsense long enough."

"Right on it. Sir, if I may."

"Yes?"

"How is Li Jing?"

"Han Qing Qing, I don't know. I haven't seen her."

"I would have more men join the search for her, sir."

"Thanks." He ended the call and entered his car, driving off from the compound. "Li Jing, be safe."

Just as he was driving, another call came through. He checked the caller and saw that it was from one of his men. "Yes/"

"Sir, we have found her."

"Where?" ye Cheng asked quickly.

"There was almost an accident close to the lodge. We found out that it was Li Jing and another lady."

"Accident?"

"Yes but both of them came out unscathed," the man replied.

"Where is she currently?"

"At home."

"Then why hasn't she been returning any of my calls? Urgh, forget it. I am coming there right now."

"Yes sir."

"Li Jing, you would be the death of me if this keeps up." Ye Cheng ended the call and sped up, racing to where she lived.

This time Bai Qing Mei had acted out of jealousy and acted well. It was much worse than before and now the problem was bigger. He was going to make her regret ever crossing path's with him.

***

Right outside, someone gave away the fact that Li Jing was at home and the angry fans managed to push past the security and started throwing things at her window.

Their noise only riled up and became louder, disturbing the peace of the neighbourhood.

"Bring that wench pout!"

"Such a lousy gold digger."

"She dares to play with the hearts of our princes."

"Just who does she thinks she is anyway?"

"Let us make her suffer."

"Disfigure her face. This kind of ladies end up being a home wrecker, stealing other people's husbands and becoming mistresses."

Hearing their hateful comments, Li Jing felt her heart bleed. This was because the memory of all Li Xiu and Ding Jiaying used to call her unknown mother came to replay in her mind.

It touched her at the deepest part of her heart. Never had she met her parents but those two made her feel like the home wrecker. 

She never asked to be adopted nor did she ever asked to be born of really what they said was true. She was the victim yet those two made it look like they were the victims.

Yin Lifen noticed that Li Jing's expression changed and she was not dumb not to understand what her friend felt currently. She too had witness the sad tale once and she wished she had not witnessed that.

It was even more painful knowing fully well that her friend had to experience that almost every day of her life and her father up till date refused to let her leave the house.

His actions only further made it seem like his wife and daughter were saying the truth. It was as though he felt guilty for cheating on his wife and also putting Li Jing's mother in the family way and that was why he refused to let the girl go free.

Either way, which ever story was true, he sure played the biggest part in her suffering, knowingly or unknowingly.

"Li Jing."

And if she was ready to stick with Ye Cheng, she should be prepared to have these as a regular. The question now was whether her heart was ready to carry that burden on itself? Could she cope with it if she wanted to?

Several questions laid in wake and were left unanswered. Subconsciously, she reached up to her neck and her finger tips grazed her necklace. 

She was obviously feeling nervous and touching it was helping her pained, beating heart to calm down.

"Li Jing," Yin Lifen called out again but her response was the same as before. Nothing!

Yin Lifen stepped forward and held her friend's arm, startling her a bit. "Li Jing."

"Yeah?" She tried to put up a brave front but that itself faded away with each stone that came knocking on the thick glass.

"Are you okay?"

KPAR!

SHATTER!

At that very instant, a bigger stone hit the glass window and it came shattering, causing Li Jing and Yin Lifen to leap while clutching their hands to their chest.

"This has gone out of hand," Yin Lifen was very angry now. How could this humans not know how to respect someone else's privacy?

She wondered how much they were paid or offered for them to act this crazily and daring?

"I would make them pay. Let me call for back up to clear their sorry asses away." 

Li Jing and Yin Lifen were still where they were when Li Jing's phone suddenly rang. Yin Lifen ;looked up at her, to see who it was that called. "Ye Cheng."

"Good thing he called. Li Jing. At least he can see the crazy things his bitchy ex is causing. Let me get my phone." 

She answered the call. "Hello."

"Thank goodness. Li Jing." Just as Yin Lifen turned to get her phone, she heard a sound from behind her.

"Ahh!"
