CHAPTER 382

"Hahaha hahaha…" He let out a loud uproar of laughter at her shyness and then turned around. She had closed her eyes quickly when his hands found their way to his zipper.

"Who knew you could be this shameless?" Li Jing muttered to herself but he heard it still.

"Only for you baby." Ignoring her, he continued with his cooking before he prepared a burnt meal and she would go mad at him.

Many times she offered to help him but he refused to tell her that it was in this house he was free to do that which he wanted without any maids watching him in fear.

Here he could serve her as she wanted. He did not need a maid to help him in his husbandly tasks and so she should let him.

After some time, Li Jing resigned herself to her fate and waited for him in the kitchen, actually watching how his muscles and body moved, reminiscing about the old times when she first started crushing on him.

Hours later, they had both had their lunch, taken their bath, and were now dressed up for their beach stroll. It was at this point Li Jing had the time to show him and ex-lain properly how she save him, showing him the route she had passed to the house.

Then she led him to where she had met him almost dead by the shore and told him of all that had happened before she actually found out he was not breathing again.

By the time she was done explaining it all to him, the love and respect Ye Cheng had for her, further skyrocketed to the peak.

Indeed if she was not there, he never would have made it, or worse still, those goons of Chairman Zhang would have found him and finished him off indefinitely.

He was more than glad for her being there. "Although I should not say this, I just want to say that I am glad that Duan Tian broke up with you." Her smile had dropped but when he kissed her on her lips and pulled back, her mood lightened again.

"Hear me out first. If he had not broken up with you, you never would have come here crying your heart out or wanted to feel the cool breeze from the ocean, Which means you never would have found me, let alone saved me or even meet me."

Li Jing smiled. All that he said was right. It was all because of Duan Tian and Li Xiu. They helped push her to the right man for her and brought her the greatest joy one could ask for.

"So to some extent, I also need to thank him for leaving you and untouched at that because he unintentionally gave the best gift and woman a man could ever ask for out freely. And so this is where it all began initially. Where our lives were entwined with each other and where my love began."

"I am happy I came here and another person we need to also thank is Grandma Jiaye. If not that she willed this house to me, I never would have had such a place to run to when I was in trouble, and also, I need to, well we need to thank Tang Zixin. He was a good person as well. If he hadn't given me what his grandmother willed to me, then none of these would have been possible."

"We owe them the biggest thanks then. And just toad to my promise, I would be the number one top investor in his new business while also investing in all that he owns. It is my little way to thank him and his family for the help rendered in finding my missing rib."

"Yeah. I would support it as well. Fate did us good even though we thought it wrecked our both. Cheers to Bai Qing Mei and Hao Huizhong for their plot to take everything from you. It was what led to your being here in the first place, you know."

"Hahaha true. In every misfortune, there is a blessing. I am grateful to God for it all. You were the silver lining in my dark clouds, Li Jing. And I bless God daily for bringing you into my life. I love you, Jing. I love you so much."

"I love you more, Michael. Thanks for giving me a reason to love again."

"Come here." He pulled her in for a hug and inhaled deeply, inhaling the sweet fragrance of her hair. "Standing on the place where it all began, I swear over and over again, never would my heart depart from you. I would love you till the day I die."

"I too swear it over and over again, my heart would forever remain yours. I would love you, now and always till the day I die."

His heart leaped with joy at her promise and he leaned his head in to seal it with a kiss. While they stood there kissing, they were unaware of the wave that was coming to bless their union and anoint them with his waters.

Nothing seemed to matter at that moment anymore. They had found each other again and now they were stronger than before. They were able to love each other fully now without any impediment of duty and pain.

This was what she wanted, for them to figure it all out and be true to themselves and their feelings. Her heartbeat for him and his did for her too.

With every second that they kissed, Li Jing wanted more and needed more. She moved her hands from his neck and entangled them in his hair as she stood on her toes, pulling him closer and deepening the kiss as his tongue explored her insides.

It was at this moment, the waves roared and poured his outburst on them, drenching them in the powers of his love and accepting these two hearts now merged as one.
