CHAPTER 749

Following Ye Cheng, they took a stop first at the station as promised and she gave her statement along with him.

How they got information about her whereabouts, he left that part out from the cops.

And being who he was the police did not pry so much at them, especially Li Jing who seemed in shock and wasn’t entirely healthy.

More than anything now, she wished to return home and have a very relaxing bath. After all, this whole incident happened when she was on her monthly flow.

And seeing more blood would have done damage to her.

.....

“Let’s hurry back,” Li Jing demanded in a more pleading and annoyed tone.

And knowing his wife, Ye Cheng knew it was only a matter of time before she gave in and let the mood swing take over.

It was already a miracle that she did not react since. Letting his warm gaze wash over her, Ye Cheng’s lips curved upwards, revealing a nice set of teeth before letting his smile reach his eyes.

“Don’t worry dear. We would soon. Just hold on a bit longer. If you want, after bathing we can go to a spa.”

As much as the sound of a spa sounded nice, to Li Jing being on her period was something she wasn’t so comfortable with in jumping from place to place.

She already had her fair share of those for the day.

“Not today. When I am done with... You know. In fact, can the vacation be soon?”

“Yes, love. Yes. Whatever you want. I would even bring mum with us. I would feel relaxed knowing she is far from harm’s way.”

Li Jing nodded at him. That was a fair point if she was asked and it was better.

At this point, she wasn’t even sure of what was going on anymore.

The enemies had declared war. Now, it was going to be a bit rough. Not that she minded the situation at all. Anything in fact to put the masterminds behind bars was deeply appreciated.

On the other hand, Yin Lifen proceed with her original plans to leave the city before she even got wind of what had happened with Li Jing.

And since Aiden did not want to waste time, he booked their flight quickly without question.

Unlike how she usually acted, that evening, Yin Lifen felt the need to put a call through to her friend and inform her of her arrival.

A line formed between her brows as her eyes narrowed on the phone in her hand.

This was the fourth time she was calling Li Jing but got no response. As if on cue, she glanced up to the wall clock in the bedroom, taking note of the time before lowering her gaze back to the phone.

‘One more time.’ Yin Lifen suggested inwardly.

Following her thoughts, she clicked on the failed icon once more.

To her surprise, it rang and rang but no one answered until it went into voicemail.

“Hmm,” she breathed out calmly.

The crease on her brows as her eyes seemed to roll in their sockets now and then left the love of her life concerned.

Ever since their arrival, she had refused to take her bath against his wishes and instead sat at the edge of the bed making her call.

One would think she would have stopped by now, rather the deep furrow of her forehead showed him just how determined she was at waiting till she got a response.

“Sweetie, you know holding onto the phone with such force would not make Li Jing suddenly appear on the other side of the phone,” Aidan noted while walking over to her side.

“Perhaps she is busy,” he began and settled on the space close to her. “Relax and hand over the phone, please. You are tensed.”

Saying that he leaned in close so his chest rested against hers and his hand wrapped softly around hers.

True to what he said, she had a strong grip on her device, and to make matters worse, so did the tightening of her jaw and muscles.

“You are stressed, to say the least, babe,” he whispered into her ear. “This is not good. Perhaps she is...”

“No!” Yin Lifen snapped.

She immediately rose to her feet and turned around to face him.

Her lips snapped shut for a second as her jaws clenched hard. Her eyes went round, staring at him as she fought back the tears.

She was worried damn it! She hated to admit that but she was worried sick and not being able to get a hold of Li Jing was making her worried even more.

“Babe, calm down. Calm down. Take a deep breath,” Aiden pleaded.

“I can’t!”

“I know but look at me. Look at me, keep your gaze strongly on my love.”

He too rose to his feet with both hands outstretched a little bit and his palms facing down.

“Take a deep breath. A deep one. Breathe calmly.”

Taking the lead, he took in deep breaths and watched as she follows after him.

Slowly, her eyes began to close, inhaling and soothing the tension in her body.

“Now come to me. Come here, honey.”

Yin Lifen nodded her head and closed the gap between them. Once she was well within reach, he wrapped his hands around her and pulled her body in for a warm hug.

“That’s it, love. That’s it. I am here, you are here. Let me share in your burden.”

They remained in that position for a couple of minutes more before he guided her towards the bed and had her sit on his thigh.

“Tell me little worrywart, would clenching hard on your phone bring Li Jing to your doorstep?” He teased as the corners of his mouth quirked up.

“Don’t bully me.”

“I’m not. I promise. However, you would have to give me an answer.”

Catching the sparkle in his eyes Yin Lifen lifted her eyes and brought her right hand up to his hair as she curled a lock on her finger and answered, “No.”

“You see...”

Before he got the chance to scold her, she interjected and voiced her thoughts quickly as well.

“But who knows, she may feel my worry. My love would seep through the phone and get to her.”

For as long as he could, he held in his laughter but watching her pout her lips and twist them, he let go and roared in laughter.

With each passing second in which he reeled in her statement, Aiden could not help but enjoy the moment.

And knowing him, she was sure he wasn’t doing that to spite her but rather he hoped to lighten up the atmosphere.

“Now you have had your fun. Stop laughing, I am being serious.”

“And so am I.”

Not finding it funny, Yin Lifen blew out her cheeks, earning herself a guffaw from him.

“I’m sorry sweetie, it is just that I am happy you can make such remarks.”

“Whatever,” she dismissed his words with a wave and managed a small smile for him.

“I know Li Jing was once lousy with answering her calls. Notwithstanding, with Ye Cheng in the picture, she straightened up and did way better than her previous self.”

“I see,” he commented thoughtfully.

“Yes. So it is either she is sleeping, which I doubt or something happened to that stubborn child of mine. Regardless, I have this feeling in my gut. Something most definitely is wrong.”

“She is a married woman you know,” he teased and pinched the bridge of her nose. “Okay. Then have you tried calling Ye Cheng?”

The second the words fell off his mouth, her phone rang out, forcing her to jerk on his thigh.

“Ah!”
