Mr. CEO Loves The Devilish Beauty - Chapter 427

As soon Ye Jun had stepped out of the room, he came face to face with Xu Mey. She was gasping for air and it showed she had run here. Ye Jun was actually quite relieved to see his sister-in-law. As much as he loved his son, he didn’t want to see him sad. And who knew better than Ye Jun that his brother’s happiness only existed with this woman.

Even when Jie found his own parents, Ye Jun had seen how his brother couldn’t seem to find his happiness with them. He was glad to have met his own family but the family he built mattered most to him.

And if anyone could challenge Xu Mey’s place in Jie’s heart then that would their twins.

“How… How is Juan?” asked Xu Mey while catching her breath.

Ye Jun pressed his lips together and lowered his voice to say, “She is out of danger but she hasn’t woken up yet. Bro is slightly sensitive. So, try not to say anything unnecessary. Please!” With that, he patted her shoulder and walked away to complete the task he was assigned.

Xu Mey pushed open the door slowly after she took several deep breaths. Looking at Jie’s lonely back from her position, she suddenly couldn’t bring herself to take another step. But there was another part of her heart that was urging her to rush up and hug him. Be there with him.

While these two views clashed within her mind, she caught sight of her son who was obediently sitting in the corner. As soon as Bao saw his mother, he stood up but didn’t rush to her side. Instead, his eyes turned to look at his father.

Jie had heard the sound of the door and asked, “Jun, did you come back without the food?” He received no answer. “What? Can’t even answer now?” He turned his head and seeing Xu Mey standing at the door, his eyes stilled.

However, instead of saying anything, he turned his head back and continued to look at his daughter. But seeing how only glanced at her and turned away, left Xu Mey frozen at her place.

With trembling hands, she closed the door and stepped inside. She came to stand on the other side of the bed so that she could see Jie’s face. But his eyes didn’t even move from Juan’s face. Now, he didn’t even want to spare her a glance.

She touched Juan’s hair before planting a kiss on her forehead gently. “How is she? What did the doctor say?” she asked in a low voice.

Jie didn’t reply to her. Instead, he sent someone a text. Soon, Xu Mey saw the door opening, and a doctor in a white coat entered with a gentle smile on her face. The doctor looked at Xu Mey and inquired, “You must be the mother?” Xu Mey nodded her head. “Let me brief you about your daughter’s condition.” Xu Mey pursed her lips and looked at Jie from the corner of her eye who didn’t pay her any attention.

The doctor patiently and in detail explained Juan’s tricky condition to Xu Mey whose face was turning unsightly the more she heard. “Anyway, for now, we assume that your daughter’s emotional stimulation was too strong that led to her condition. She either saw or heard something that affected her. For now, we managed to bring her fever down but clearly, she isn’t ready to wake up just yet.” The doctor took a pause and added considerately, “Although she is sleeping, please remember that she can hear your voice. So, it’s better that you don’t say anything that might hurt her feelings. Her condition can worsen otherwise.” Xu Mey nodded her head in understanding.

The doctor smiled at her and continued, “But now that you’re here, I think it’ll help. Kids always feel safer in the presence of their parents. And even in their sickness they unconsciously look for the warmth that only their parents can provide. With you both around, she’ll soon wake up.”

“Thank you, doctor!” Xu Mey bowed her head to show her sincerity and saw the doctor off.

She came back to Juan’s side and looked at Jie with a complicated gaze. He didn’t want to answer her that’s why he chose to call the doctor to answer her question. But he didn’t want to see her worrying too much, that’s why he chose to call the doctor instead of letting her fret here all on her own.

But right now, his silence was really prickling Xu Mey’s heart. She’d rather see him accusing her of this. She wouldn’t even mind if he insulted her for being a bad mother. She’d gladly take it. She’d take it all. Anything that he had to say. Even his hateful gaze would be better than this indifference where he didn’t even glance at her neither did he say a word to her.

This silence was making her anxious. And seeing Juan like this her heart was already on the verge of breaking. Why didn’t she notice that no matter how strong her daughter was, she was also young? Why did she assume that her daughter would give in? She never even did it herself!

She looked at the needle on her hand and caressed her face as if by doing it, she could let her know that her mother was here for her now. And she won’t be leaving!

Jie didn’t show that he had been noticing her movements but he had been doing it. No matter how hard he tried to resist it, his eyes would follow her around even now. But he wasn’t willing to let her know that. It wasn’t like she was the only one who felt hurt. He also had a heart. He also had feelings.

And the issue right now had gone beyond themselves. It was about their kids and he’d never take the shorter side of the stick when it came to his kids.

“You really won’t say anything?” she asked.
