A Billion Dollar Exchange

" "

Xin Yong was dumbfounded and dumb stricken.

'Where was that coming from all of a sudden?. How would he just tell her he loved her. Love? Love?.'

Her heart wanted to jump on him and scream 'I love you too! ' but her brain told her to have her self respect.

"What ....are you... saying?, I'm trying to tell you that we are in the parking lot and you should... lead the way and you are .. are. .saying that.. "

"I love you "

Jin Yue cut her off again. This time his smile broadened.

"Yes, I just realized it now, I just realized that I am.. "

"Jin Yue!, what has come over you? . We haven't even dated for a month and you are talking of love?"

She paused for a second and creased her brows.

"Now I think about it, it was a mistake to have accepted your offer at that time, this relationship is officially over, I don't want it anymore, you can leave with your friend, I'll call a taxi."

That was when Jin Yue realised how fast he was taking things. She was right, who talks about love after two weeks of being together?

They didn't know each other so much and he shouldn't have confessed on the road!. But he didn't even know when it left his mouth, now she was calling it off, she must be joking!.

"Sweet, I'm.. "

"Jin Yue, do not Sweet me for crying out loud!, it seems I'm too cheap to have agreed just after knowing you for two days! only two days!, Hehe, Now that I think about it, you feel I'm that cheap right? So you want to sleep with me and dump me, am I right?

No, I won't take such from any man, give my bag back, you can go, I'll fetch a taxi!! "

Xin Yong screamed angrily but deep down at the bottom of her heart she was afraid that he was going to really get angry and leave. She couldn't tell herself that she wouldn't stop him from leaving.

She just prayed that he would continue pleading so that she could hold on to her ego.

"Sweet, where are all these coming from?, I already promised not to touch you, why are you still thinking that I'll leave you?. Okay, I take it back, I take everything I said back. Can we go... "

"Jin Yue!!, don't you get it, I'll rather dump you than have you dumping me later on. So now, I officially dump you. We are over" Xin Yong feigned anger.

She immediately made to take the bag he was holding but Jin Yue pulled it to his side.

"Sweet, I said I'm sorry, why won't you forgive me? I said I take it back, okay. Come on, let me take you home, okay?" Jin Yue's pitiful voice melted her resolve. Her pent up anger immediately disappeared.

"Let's break up "

With that she turned and continued walking but she didn't take the bag from him, so Jin Yue figured that she wanted him to take her back home.

He immediately followed behind her, quietly directing her movements to where he had parked the car. He instinctively avoided any topic related to that. He didn't want to remind her that she had talked about a breakup.

When they approached the car, Jin Yue walked over and opened the trunk and put the luggage inside. He extended his hand over to her, and she abruptly handed over the bag she was carrying not even sparing him a glance.

Closing the trunk, he rushed over and carefully opened the car's front door for her and she grudgingly sat down. He rushed over to the driver side, opened the door and sat down.

He turned back almost immediately to apologize to Liu Wei.

"I'm so sorry bro, we were caught up with something, and this is Sweet.. " Jin Yue turned to look at Xin Yong who was currently facing outside with a frown evident on her face.

" "

Liu Wei was speechless at the moment, was her name Sweet or was that just a pet name? He shifted his gaze from his phone to the person on the seat.

Xin Yong who had just heard Jin Yue address her as Sweet instinctively turned to tell the person her real name.

"Don't mind him, he keeps calling me Sweet, my name is... " Her words clung to her alveolar when she realized who had been sitting there all these while.

Liu Wei was relaxing in the back seat, the first two buttons of his shirt that was unbuttoned made him look like a model taking a photo shoot.

Xin Yong's gaze met those extremely captivating eyes of his, She bolted in surprise.

"CEO Liu Wei?, OMG, Jin Yue, you didn't tell me that it was our beautiful Adonis that is your friend!." She glanced at Jin Yue but immediately returned her gaze to Liu Wei.

"I'm Xin Yong actually, it's nice meeting you." Xin Yong smiled broadly as she admired the beautiful god sitting behind her.

'So she was riding in the same car with two of the city's most handsome men!, she really must have saved a prince from falling into a pile of feces in her former life!!'

"Mmm" Liu Wei replied slightly raising his lips to a side. Then is gaze fell on his phone once more.

Xin Yong remained like that for sometime before adjusting herself on the seat. She looked forward still smiling sheepishly.

Jin Yue who had just watched the whole scene unfold was almost fuming.

She had never expressed such awe when she saw him before!

Did she like Liu Wei?

Just the thought of it almost made him gag. He started the ignition and drove off speedily without even sparing any of them a glance.

"Liu Wei, should I drop you off at home first? " Jin Yue asked Liu Wei after a long time.

Liu Wei told him to drop him at the office instead, he had a lot of work to do.

When Liu Wei alighted from the vehicle, Xin Yong waved a goodbye at him which he replied with a slight smile and a nod obviously because she was Jin Yue's friend.

But Jin Yue didn't see it that way.

'Does it mean he had started liking her too? '

He turned to look at Xin Yong and realized that she was too beautiful not to notice. His irritation multiplied.

'If he likes her and she likes him, that was all that was needed for them to be a perfect couple, so what about him?, she was just going to leave him?'
