I Hate You, Devil!-Chapter 162 Can't I come?

Chapter 162 Can“t I come?

Yu Chen slowly rose and sat on the bed while Luo Xiaolei was still straddling him. The bedroom was silent until Luo Xiaolei opened her lips.

"I… I…" she stammered. Emotions began flooding her eyes.

But before she could continue whatever it was that she wanted to say, Yu Chen gently caressed her cheek with the back of his hand. His sexy lips curved up a little and his eyes became warm. But Luo Xiaolei could see that his expression seemed pained. She felt like there was something caught in her throat and she couldn't speak.

"It's okay. Nothing will happen to me so please don't force yourself like this." He said, his voice gentle and as always, sincere.

Luo Xiaolei slowly shook her head.

"No, I –" she started but for the second time, Yu Chen interrupted her. He moved and kissed her forehead and then, he stood up.

"There's still something I have to deal with so I am going back to my study. Goodnight." He said and just like that Luo Xiaolei was left there sitting on the bed on her own as her gaze were glued towards the door.

That night, Yu Chen didn't return to their bedroom. That was the first time they didn't sleep together in one bed while he was at home.

When Luo Xiaolei woke up and he was not beside her, she subconsciously clenched the bedsheet in her hand. She felt unbelievably awful. What she was feeling right now was nothing compared to what she felt when Yu Chen went abroad. This was far worse.

Yu Chen seemed busy since he was no longer home when she woke up. Luo Xiaolei also heard some whispers from the guards so she could only deduce that he must be dealing with something very important. Perhaps, he was dealing with what happened yesterday.

Luo Xiaolei headed to school feeling quite downhearted. She couldn't concentrate and she was not in her best mood when she visited her babies. The producers and the choreographers were already at Star Castle when she arrived so her gloominess somehow dissipated as she began to focus on her work.

Since the day Yu Chen was hospitalized, Luo Xiaolei had already decided that these boys would debut first before her. She decided to focus everything on them for now. After all, she had been raising them, nurturing them for three years now. She had seen just how much they struggled. She had seen how many sacrifices they had to make to get to where they were right now and she knew that this was just the beginning of their journey.

The youngest, Song Xiaoyi, was just 12 when he started. He was still such a baby boy but he never let his age become an excuse to slack off. All of them were incredibly awesome kids and Luo Xiaolei knew how much they all gave up because of their dream. They practiced every single day and night in the studio when their friends were leisurely enjoying themselves in the outside world. Her babies were really hardworking and tenacious. Every single one of them really deserved to reach the very top so she wouldn't let anything break them again. They were her dream so she couldn't let them drown right before her eyes. Never. She was going to do everything to let them fly and soar in the sky.

"Okay, that's enough!" Luo Xiaolei finally clapped her hands and the boys all collapsed on the floor as they panted. "I believe this is perfect enough?" she was talking to the main choreographer, Cheng, and the man nodded in satisfaction.

"Absolutely perfect, Miss Luo. I didn't think they could perfect the choreography to this extent in less than a month but look at them... there are no more words I could say. They are more than ready to perform this on stage now." Cheng said and Luo Xiaolei smiled widely at him. This man was one of the hardest person for her to recruit. Cheng was just like her babies. In her past life, this man was a talented and promising choreographer. However, he was taken advantage of by his very own best friend. His best friend was secretly taping him while he was creating a dance routine and sold it to big companies, claiming that the dance choreographies were his. Because of that, Cheng never had the chance to shine and he remained buried in the shadows of his so called best friend.

A year ago, Luo Xiaolei learned about Cheng's story when she was searching for the future famous choreographer Huan. She accidentally caught Huan secretly filming Cheng in his studio and that was how she managed to get Cheng on her side.

"That's a relief." Luo Xiaolei sighed as she smiled proudly. She turned towards the boy's manager and then talked to the producers before she left Star Castle.

Her busy day somehow distracted her from the issue between her and Yu Chen. However, when she got home and the man was still not there, Luo Xiaolei's expression turned dark.

The first thing Luo Xiaolei did was call her tattletale.

"Where is Yu Chen?" she asked, her voice serious.

"U-uhm… he's still in his office, Miss Luo." Gu Wei was whispering and he seemed very hesitant to answer.

Luo Xiaolei frowned upon hearing that Yu Chen was still in his office.

"He's working?" she asked, biting her bottom lip hard.

"Y-yes."

"Is Dr. Yang there?"

"Uh-uhm yes, Miss."

"Why is he not stopping him?"

"Err… well, boss is… uhm…"

When Luo Xiaolei realized that Gu Wei was not willing to speak, she ended the call before she walked out of the house.

Guan Ye just parked the car when he saw his lady boss walking towards him.

"Miss, is there any problem?" he asked.

"Bring me to Yu Chen." She replied as she walked passed him and entered the car.

Guan Ye was stunned and he didn't know what to do for a moment. However, after a short while, he soon decided to just listen to his lady boss. After all, that was the big boss' order from the very beginning.

…

Yu Empire

In no time, Luo Xiaolei was already inside a private elevator climbing to the top floor of one of the most magnificent buildings in Central City.

When the elevator opened, Gu Wei was already waiting for her.

"M-miss… err… why did you come here? Is there a problem?" Gu Wei asked. He seemed nervous. It seemed like Guan Ye informed him as soon as Luo Xiaolei entered the building.

"Why? Can't I come?" she simply replied as she looked around the all-white deserted lobby. She looked at her wrist watch and it was already near eleven.

"No, no, no… that's not what I mean, Miss. You can always come –"

"Where is Yu Chen's office?"

"Oh, please follow me, Miss."

Upon reaching the door, Gu Wei was obviously hesitant as he carefully pushed the door open.
