CHAPTER 241

Luo Jinhai's lips tugged upwards as a cute adorable smile enshrouded his whole look. He wasn't looking bad himself, but compared to Li Jing, she zeroed him out.

He got up to hug her lightly and pulled her seat open for her. "Li Jing, right on time."

"Thank you." She took her seat and waited for him to get back to his before she replied to him further. "I love to please."

"That is one trait I loved about you. How are you?"

"I am fine, you?" Li Jing placed her small purse on her lap and her phone on the table.

"I am good, where you left me exactly dear."

"I'm sorry. Sorry about the delay in time and seeing you," Li Jing wanted this dinner to be very peaceful and not with any heartbreak even though she knew it was mostly going to get to that extent first.

"No, it is okay. I understand. And you have been busy, especially when you have someone as Ye Cheng for a boss.

Li Jing's brows creased at his words. It was one thing when he talked about someone else and another when he talked about Ye Cheng. "And what do you mean by that?" Li Jing asked.

"Well, for one he is bossy and controlling," Luo Jinhai stated his fact bluntly.

"I appreciate your concern, Luo Jinhai but he just cares, nothing more."

"So you keep saying but he is overdoing it."

"I presume that if you were in his shoes you would do more or even worse."

"I do not understand you."

"Perfect. So also I do not understand why you are always against Ye Cheng even in my presence when you know I would not be okay with it."

"I love you, Li Jing and I know he had his eyes set on you as well."

She sighed in her mind before pouting her lips and getting ready to reply to him accurately.

"What is bad in him having his eyes set on me?"

"Because I am a man and I want you. I would love for you to be my woman."

"As much as that warms my heart, this is not possible. I came here to give you my answer about what you asked. Here it is, Luo Jinhai. I cannot date you or be your woman."

"It is because of Ye Cheng right?"

"Pardon?"

"It is because of Ye Cheng you are rejecting my love right?"

"Luo Jinhai!" Li Jing's eyes dimmed and narrowed further at him. "This has nothing to do with Ye Cheng." Li Jing was firm in her resolve and her words.

It was going to be the first time that Luo Jinhai saw her like that. Never had he seen such determination in her eyes and he knew he already crossed the boundaries. Li Jing was not going to let it sit down as he thought.

"Let today be the first and the last time you would blame Ye Cheng for any of my decisions. And whomever I choose to be with is none of your business, okay? I am sick and tired of people thinking they can control my life or tell me what I am supposed to do like I am a twelve-year-old."

"Li Jing," He wanted to stop her and plead but Li Jing would have none of it.

"Save it. As I said, there is no hope for anything between us and this has nothing to do with Ye Cheng but on me. I take you like a friend, a senior brother, and nothing more. I am sorry that I have to hurt you like this but I would rat6her tell you the truth rather than lead you on as you deserve that."

Luo Jinhai could not say anything anymore but just stare at Li Jing. She really had changed within the few days of not seeing her.

After a minute passed, he blinked and cleared his throat. "Okay, I understand you, Li Jing, and I must say thank you for being truthful. Also, I just want to let you know that even though you cannot accept me now, I won't give up hope in winning your heart."

"Luo Jinhai, I just said…"

"I know what you said," Luo Jinhai interjected. "Nevertheless, my love for you would not go down still. I have had feelings for you since the period when I first met you and I have tucked them in for the sake of your happiness. This time I intend on waiting for you to love me back. I know in time you would see how true my love for you is."

Li Jing could already feel her headache just because of his words. Was it that he was not even listening to her or what? There was not going to be any hope so why was he still holding on and hurting himself?

No matter how she thought about it, it still did not make sense. So far the only guy who had been able to capture her heart or her fancy again was Ye Cheng and Tang Zixin but even at that, she was just not ready to jump into any relationship yet. Her heart still hurt from the betrayal of the past.

"Luo Jinhai, please do not be disappointed if things did not go according to plan for you later."

"That would be my own cross to bear Li Jing. I am just happy that you know and I hope in the future you would not want to drift from me or ignore me because of what I said."

"No, I won't and that brings me to the second reason why I wanted to see you today." Luo Jinhai tilted his head a bit forward to really grasp the situation.

"Oh, what is that? Please feel free to speak." He tried his best to not show his nervousness and fear out to her. But from her expression and the Li Jing he knew, it meant it was something serious and not good.

Probably worse than her refusal to be with him.

"I'm leaving."
