Chapter 184 - Got it CEO Feng Jianyu?

Xiu Mei shook her head at Feng Jianyu's question, "I don't know. No matter how cordial our relationship is, Xion and I never discussed our past with each other. Meiying's death is still a mystery for me. I barely know that something happened on the day they were supposed to get married, but unfortunately, Meiying died."

What Xiu Mei was telling was the truth. When once she tried to ask Xion about Meiying's death, it ended up badly between them as he snapped at her and went away on a three months business tour.

Despite her continuous calls, he ignored her completely for those three months. Later when he returned and she tried to apologize him for his reckless question, seeing her puppy eyes his heart melted instantly. He can never resist these puppy eyes of the person he loved so dearly.

But that day Xion made her promise that she will neither ask him about Meiying's death nor she would try to search for it on her own.

"After that day, Meiying becomes the forbidden topic in between us. But no matter what we cannot ignore her presence in our life. Xion adores me, pampers me, calls me with names and does everything for me without expecting anything in return. And I could never bring myself to stop him from doing all this. If this is what makes him happy, then who am I to snatch his happiness from him. I'm happy in his happiness."

Xiu Mei told Jianyu the story behind her new name. After her eye surgery, she stated her desire to get a new name and identity. Mr. Zeng excitedly suggested her name XIULAN and also offered her to assume the identity of his granddaughter. Thereby using his surname Zeng and become Zeng Xiulan. And when she asked for Xion's suggestion regarding her name, he didn't give her any reply but just stared deeply in her eyes for a moment and smiled.

"You know Jianyu when Xion looked into my eyes, his one gaze spoke a thousand words and I decided what name I want to adopt"

A satisfied smile crawl on her lips, "Later I combined two names 'XIU' from XIULAN to honor Mr. Zeng's love and care, but politely rejected his other offer. And 'MEI' from MEIYING to honor Xion and Meiying's contribution in the roughest phase of my life. Anddd…."

"And your name becomes XIU MEI…. which means 'Beautiful Plum'. Right?" Feng Jianyu ruffled her hair and completes her sentence before she could do it.

"Hm! Right! When I disclosed my choice of name to Xion, that day for the first time I saw the broadest smile on his lips that reached his eyes. Unconsciously, he pulled me in a tight hug and swirled around for don't know how long! "

She chuckled remembering the day when she revealed her new name to Xion. Often times there comes an unexpected happy moment in your life that gives you a high like nothing else can get you that. Words seem limited to express your happiness… That day Xion felt the same happiness on hearing her name, and since that day he affectionately calls her 'My little Mei' and 'little Tomato'.

Hearing this Feng Jianyu could not help but feel jealous of Xion. At her most difficult time, Xion was there to support her, motivate her but he (Jianyu) did nothing but kept on thinking why had she betrayed him and not wait for him in the resort.

But he was more puzzled by hearing how Mr. Zeng and Xion cared for her. It's good they treated her nicely and provided her with the best medical care, but why? Why so much love and care for a stranger? Why Mr. Zeng was willing to let her adopt his surname?

"Got it CEO Feng Jianyu?" Xiu Mei asked.

He didn't give her any reply but kept on thinking about his lost time with her and mysteries regarding Mr. Zeng.

Xiu Mei frowned and jolts his hand. "What are you thinking? I'm talking to you and you are not answering!"

"Nothing!!" He cocked his head to look at her face, "Mei, I'm grateful that Mr. Zeng and Xion helped you so much. But knowing your personality, you don't like to owe favors. If I'm not wrong you must have done something to pay them…. I know there can be no repayment for what they have done for you, but you must have tried to do something to lessen the favor?? Right?"

Saying he turned back to look at her face directly, without missing a single expression. He cannot ask her directly why these people were so kind to her back then despite of no relationship between them, so he used a different approach.

Xiu Mei bites her lips when he asked the question she wanted to avoid answering.
