Chapter 12 - Prostitute

"Miss Yu, how could you do this….ahhh…" The white lotus servant, Lisa tried to play her cards at this moment but Yu Mei hurled the empty glass at her.

She narrowly dodged the glass which smashed on the ground and shattered into pieces.

"Get lost," Yu Mei coldly said. She was not in the mood to entertain a bitch at this moment.

Steward Gu felt as if he was standing on thorns. He glanced at his Master who did not seem to have any intentions of stopping him, he bowed before retreating without looking back. Only heavens could save Miss Yu at this moment.

The rest of the servants also left, leaving the 'couple' all alone in the enormous living room.

The tremendous pressure in the living room had the ability to bring people to their knees but Yu Mei did not seem to care.

Jun Zixuan finally stood up from the chair as he walked closer to her, but he stopped at a distance, "How dare you!" He coldly spoke, his voice was low yet danger could be traced from his tone.

"What now? Are you going to hit me?" Yu Mei calmly said, without even flinching. It was the first time she has seen the man up so close, his eyes were a shade of chestnut brown, they were captivating.

His eyes narrowed dangerously but before he could say anything, she coldly spoke up, "Zi….This Young Master here, you should know when to stop. If I really wanted anything from you, I would've asked for it."

She paused before adding, "Do you take me as your prostitute that you are getting rid of by throwing money on my face?" Huh, so what if she was acting calm, did that mean she did not have a temper?

And that made him pause in his steps.

Zi? Jun Zixuan narrowed his eyes. To this day, he was sure that she never got to know about his identity then how did she…?

"What did you call me just now?"

Yu Mei did not flinch at the coldness of his tone. She understood what was he speaking of.

In anger, she completely forgot that she was not Han Mei anymore. She was Yu Mei. She was not supposed to call him that.

Luckily, she stopped herself in time.

"Nothing," she calmly said, before continuing, "Whatever happened before this, consider it as the past. From this moment, you have got no right to boss me around and whatever I do has got nothing related to you."

She felt somewhat bad for treating him as such but she wanted to make things clear and draw a line as Yu Mei, who was his wife.

Her actions or hurtful words did not seem to bother the man as he stared at her with an emotionless face, his handsome face was still wet by the orange juice poured on him, but that only seemed to enhance his sexiness.

He glanced at the girl who would desperately cling to him until he was furious. Normally, there would be fear in her eyes.

But somehow, he could sense that something about her has changed, like those dark starry eyes. That pair of eyes…has it always been like that?

He wondered if she was always this gutsy and was just disguising herself. But then again, she has always been a scheming girl.

A person who could go to the extent of harming herself to get his attention, what could she not do?

"Fine," he muttered.

Yu Mei did not spare another glance as she turned around and walked upstairs, her each step seemed to be exuding confidence.

She was probably the first person who walked out unharmed of the demon's lair after provoking him.

She did not know that her slight slip of the tongue when she said 'Zi' was what saved her today.

Alas...If worse came to worst, she too would have fought him to death since she was not a person who would back down easily.

Jun Zixuan had his gaze on her retreating back but the profoundness in his eyes was hard to decipher.

...

Yu Mei lazily rolled to the other side of the bed, disturbed by the loud noise of the alarm clock.

She grabbed it from the bedside table before throwing it away in frustration. The poor pink-colored alarm clock finally lost its life after colliding with the wall.

She opened her eyes and sat upon the bed, distressed. Her hair resembled a bird's nest which only lacked a few eggs to complete the look.

She picked up her(Yu Mei's) cellphone that was kept beside her pillow before looking at the time. It was almost 5 a.m.

She looked out of the huge window only to find the sky turning light.

"Sigh...It's time... Damn you, Yu Mei! Who told you to eat so much?" She cursed the previous owner of the body before getting out of the bed.
