CHAPTER 401 - MISSING MY HUBBY

​​

Like every other day, Li Jing made it a point to actually go to her office first and get things done, then at 2 pm, she goes to Ye Cheng's office to help as the financial manager till she closed by 4 to 5 pm.

Of course, in turn, Ye Cheng would also assist her in running her company since he was more vast in that area and also could teach her a lot of things.

However, for the last two days, even when she went visiting, she did not meet her hubby throughout work.

These days he was often busy putting things in place as work just seemed to become ceaseless. They needed to hurry things to start mass production as the customer's needs were growing.

Being the understanding wife that Li Jing was, she did not bother him and always waited for him but he came home late. Unfortunately, she had slept off by then when he arrived and the following morning, he would have left early as well.

On this day she had rushed and managed to finish her work on time and then decided that she was going to see him. She really missed her hubby and whenever she tried to think about him, it was always images of their first time together that kept on popping up in her head.

It had been frustrating as she wasn't used to that and when it did occur, she found herself yearning for his touch. Li Jing could barely think clearly even at work that day.

It was a wonder how she had managed to finish on time given how she was feeling. Or perhaps it was the zeal of seeing him that she looked forward to and managed to complete the task.

All in all, at exact;y 3:30 pm, Li Jing stood up from her chair and did a full-on outstretch, letting out a soft yawn before packing up her things and making her way out of her office.

'Hubby, get set, your wife is invading your office today.' She gave herself a small pep talk on her way up to his floor.

Ding!

Stepping out of the elevator, Li Jing majestically walked over to Han Qing Qing's desk and smiled at the young lady.

"Oh, Li Jing." Han Qing Qing called her name as she lifted her head from what she was working on.

"Hi, Qing Qing. How are you?"

"Well stressed as you can see." She gestured towards the pile of files on her desk and let out an exasperated sigh.

"It would be fine, you do not have to worry much. Just take it one step at a nice. Give yourself a target and time frame and in no doubt, you would be done in a jiffy. It is how I do mine and I get them done overnight."

"Sure, thanks for the tip, Li Jing. The only problem I have is we have a deadline for noon tomorrow." She flashed a charming smile at her before returning to her tired self.

"Then it is more than enough time the way I see it. I am sorry I cannot help you out much now, but let's say… umm send me some of the documents huh, when I get home, at night I would help you finish them. So try and do half before you go to bed and when I wake up, I would do the rest for you."

"Wow! Li Jing!" She could not believe her ears. It wasn't that she couldn't do it by herself, she could, but with the tension and the short time frame, her mind was going bunkers and she was making mistakes where she shouldn't even have to.

All of a sudden her excitement died and she frowned again.

"Now what is it? I thought you were in a jubilation mood just now?"

"Well, I can't do that to you. You already have a company you are running and yet you still come to help us out here. It isn't fair packing my work on you."

"Silly girl. Am I complaining? Wasn't I the one who offered to help? Besides, it is my husband's company which can be said as still my company. Since I have some time to spare, why not use it to help out, hmm?"

"Hmm, are you sure?" Han Qing Qing asked. She was trying to be considerate and not take advantage of Li Jing.

"Stop being like this. I am sure of it."

"Okay, if you insist. Who am I to stop you? Thanks." She leaned back against her chair as her mind and brain began to calm down. Before Li Jing knew it, Han Qing Qing sat back up and shook her head. "No."

"No what?"

"I can't let you do that."

"Why?"

"The boss, your husband would literarily kill me for burdening his sweet wife with work." Li Jing shook her head at her husband's PA. Han Qing Qing was such a worry sport.

She let out another deep sigh before shaking her head. "Leave Ye Cheng for me. He would understand. Besides, if this work isn't finished on time tomorrow, then I would have a more stressed out husband. Consider this me doing it for him and another thing… I miss my husband. He hasn't been home early for the past two days. I need to help him if I want to see him more."

"Oh… How cute. The boss sure is lucky to have you."

"As I am, Qing Qing. As I am. Now, please tell me he is inside?"

"Yeah. Oh no, wait. He followed the Vice-president, Yi Wang Lei, to the production room. He said he would be back in thirty minutes and that should be roundabout, oh now."

DING!

They heard the sound of the elevator opening and Han Qing Qing smiled at Li Jing. "Guess your husband is back now, my lady."

"Getaway, Qing Qing. Thanks though and do not forget what I said. Send it to my email please, help me to help you to help him. Thanks."

Li Jing had not finished speaking when she heard footsteps walking in their direction and what followed was… "And who do we have here?" the sweet charming voice of her hubby.

Her cheeks puffed some more when she heard his voice. She had missed him so much. Judging from the way she was smiling sheepishly, Han Qing Qing could almost bet that Li Jing's cheeks would be hurting by then.

Slowly she turned around to see the man of her dreams standing just a few footsteps away from her with his hands in his pocket, making him look like a male model.

Her smile brightened, enough to make an animal go blind due to the brightness that radiated from it.

"Hey love," he called out sweetly, completely ignoring the fact that his assistant was just there listening to them.

"Hey, honey. Welcome back."

"Happy to be back, love." He smiled brightly at her before shifting his gaze reluctantly from her to Han Qing Qing who was still looking at her computer screen but was blushing nonetheless.

"Aren't you supposed to be working, Han Qing Qing? Why are you blushing for my wife."

"Sorry, sir." She quickly apologized and lowered her head, pretending to be calculating something.

Of course, Ye Cheng knew it was all a cruise and nothing more but he was just kidding.

Li Jing watched as his lips pulled back a bit before his lips parted and a peal of lovely laughter escaped his lips.

By the time he was done, he walked over to his wife and just like an expert, he placed a hand around her waist, pulling her close, while his other hand went behind her head, bringing her face and lips closer to his as he hungrily pressed his lips to hers.

It was like they shared the same hunger and the moment Li Jing felt his lips on hers, she parted her lips eagerly for him and kissed him back, raising her left hand to round his neck while her other hand clutched at her handbag and hold his shirt.

At that moment, both husband and wife ignored the fact that they were on the office premises and kissed each other so passionately.

If not for the fact that there was nothing like privacy, they would have thrown caution to the wind and done more than just kissing there.

After about a minute plus, Ye Cheng slowly broke the kiss and then pecked her forehead, pulling her closer into a tight hug as he inhaled deeply the scent of her hair.

His mind felt calm at that moment but something churned inside him.

He wanted more than that. He needed to kiss her some more. He knew he missed her but to what extent? He wasn't so sure of himself until now, that he felt as though he wouldn't be able to live without her for another minute.

"Come, love, let us go inside my office."
