Seducing The Ice Queen - Chapter 177

Ye Heng glanced curiously at the couple entered while she stood by in a corner. The girl was the same exuberant and beautiful one as she had seen in the picture. In fact, Ye Heng felt that the camera had not done her any justice. The man on the other hand was very different than what she had imagined and it shocked her. He still looked sick.

From what she had heard, they had been able to get rid of the cancer after a long and hard fight. But the man still looked gaunt with his cheeks sunken in and his bald head reflecting off the light. He would have been a handsome man when Zirui fell in love with him. Ye Heng could see that in the shape of his jaw and the shape of his face but the sickness had almost ravaged him. No one else seemed too shocked. They had probably seen the man or guessed at his looks.

However the happiness on his face, as he greeted everyone and at the way the couple interacted, it was clear that they were extremely happy. The last person to greet the couple was Gyeom who hugged the girl happily and then fist bumped the man. She felt a surge of jealousy at the easy intimacy between him and Zirui. Shouldn’t he be keeping his distance from her a bit.

Just then Zirui spotted Ye Heng and just as naturally as she had hugged the others, the girl hugged her also as she squealed,” Ye Heng! I have been waiting for so long to meet you! You have such a splendid voice! I love the songs you write! I even bought a few Cd’s so that you can autograph them! All of Kieran’s doctors and nurses are now fans of SKY and Ye Ye! I will definitely send it to them! And I loved the way you teased this man out there on that interview! It was so awesome! I almost screamed in excitement when I saw his worried face!

With Zirui easing the atmosphere, everyone settled into eating and drinking as Adam had set up a grill in the backyard. Almost as always, Gyeom and I.M were busy fooling around and Felix was helping Adam at the grill while Kieran and Alice talked in muted tones and Zirui played with the little baby. All the fear of feeling out of place was relieved as she watched the group quietly. Seeing that Ye Heng was presently sitting alone, Apollo approached the woman with a gleam in his eye.

Sitting on the chair next to her, Apollo said,” Ye ye. Babe.. You are getting more and more beautiful every time I see you. Are you going to turn into a fairy next?”

Ye Heng giggled at this. She had once dreamed of Apollo talking to her like this but knowing that he was only teasing her was even more fun!

Turning her head to look back at him, she crossed her eyes at him and blinked a bit as she fired right back,” Apollo.. you are getting more ugly every time I see you. Are you going to be an old uncle next time?”

Apollo threw back his head and laughed. “Ha! Good going girl! I have trained you well! So what are you up to these days?”

The two people brought their heads together and started to speak about the future plans but their initial interaction had not been missed by Gyeom who had been observing them from the corner of his eye. He frowned as he thought of Apollo finding her attractive..

Was he out to seduce her? I.M noticed Gyeom’s action and whistled a tune to catch his attention. When Gyeom turned to him, he said,”Yu Gyeom, I thought you were very smart. How come you have the EQ of a teaspoon?”

Gyeom frowned at this and asked,”What do you mean?”

“Simple. If you are interested in someone, you should let the other person know.”

“It’s nothing like that. We are just friends.”

“Uh huh. Friends with benefits? Don’t tell me that you thought we wouldn’t know. The way you two have been following each other with side eyes, we would all have to be blind to miss it. But let tell you something before you repeat that ‘we are friends’ line like a broken record. That is what I said for Felix. And that is what Alice said for K.. But mostly, that is what you said for Zizi.

Losing your love to someone worthy is nothing much but losing the girl you like owing to your own stupidity is too much.”

Gyeom did not say anything as he wondered over this. How could he like Ye Heng when he had long been in love with Zizi. But then I.M asked him something that made his realize that maybe he really had gotten over Zizi and it was his own belief that made him think that he was not over her..

He looked at I.M who had just asked him,”Are you willing to give up Ye Heng the way you gave up on Zizi.

The answer was No. Hell no.

Getting up from his chair so that the poor chair almost fell backward, Yu Gyeom marched over to the two people who were sitting and chatting in their own little world.

Ye Heng noticed his approach but continued to chat with Apollo as she assumed that Gyeom was coming over to just chat.

She could mot, in her wildest dreams have expected that Gyeom would catch hold of her wrist, bend down and say huskily,”I don’t agree with what you said.”

Before she could grasp the meaning behind this, Gyeom had covered the distance between them and took her lips in a hot kiss. Slowly, when Ye Heng surrendered to the kiss, he moved back and glared at Apollo and said in the most stone age style man as possible,”You stay away! She is mine!
