Chapter 190 - Insulted Again

"Jie, where are we going?" Yu Jinhai tugged at her hands. 

Yu Mei tilted her head to look at him, "We're here for a party. You like parties, right?"

The boy nodded, "I do, but they don't let me come out whenever there is a party in the house."

The 'they' here must be referring to the Yu Family members. Although everyone knew him as the second young master, but he was never allowed to step into the parties or functions. Yu Mei thought to herself but she did not delve deeper into it, "No worries, I can take you to a party whenever you want."

"Let's go," She walked out of the car and handed the keys to the valet before walking towards the other side. She opened the door and extended her hand towards the boy who immediately took it. 

"Jie, this should be done by men. Brother-in-law does it for you," The boy embarrassedly muttered. 

She settled his properly gelled hair before adjusting the collar of his tuxedo, "You can do it for me when you grow up."

The munchkin nodded eagerly. 

Just as they stepped towards the five-star restaurant, they were blocked by the reporters at the entrance, who were probably already waiting for her arrival.

"President Leanne, is this your brother?"

"Isn't this boy the Young Master of Yu Family?"

"What is your relation with him?"

"Are you here for some private occasions?"

"President Leanne, how do you feel after your identity is revealed."

Yu Mei removed her shades before looking at the reporters with disinterest, "Don't act like you don't know I am the illegitimate daughter of Yu Family," She paused for a moment before adding, "This is a private party so yes, you are not welcomed here. I won't say it was nice to see you."

The reporters: "_"

They could swear they have never been insulted like this.

"Let's go, Ah Jin," Holding the boy's hand, she walked straight past them. Did they think she would not hold grudges?

If not for them, had Rosette been on the verge of bankruptcy? The matter also would not have blown out of proportion. 

"Are you fine?" She asked the boy as they stepped inside the party hall, ''Did they scare you?"

"No, you were there with me," He held her hand tighter. 

This boy had a sweet mouth. She smiled, "Let's go, you have already met Sister Luoluo. I'll introduce you to another sister.''

He nodded. 

As soon as people noticed them, they started surrounding them. All the faces were familiar even though she did not remember the names of most. 

"Welcome to the party, President Leanne."

She blinked, "Guys, stop embarrassing me," She was not used to this kind of greetings from these people, "Here, meet him. This is Yu Jinhai, my younger brother. Ah Jin, they're all my classmates."

"Aww…He is so cute," The girls immediately ran over to coddle the little munchkin as Yu Mei looked around. 

"Are you looking for me?" Came the voice from her back. 

She turned around and hugged her, "How are you?"

Li Shuang hugged her back, "I am good. What about you?"

"I am fine," Yu Mei smiled, "You are so hot today," She complimented, looking at the woman dressed in a royal blue bodycon dress."

"And you're dressed so casually."

Yu Mei glanced at her dark trench coat, "I just was just tired and felt lazy," After Mia left, she felt a bit empty. After all, she was used to having her inside her body all the time. She worked out first. Later, she over-exhausted herself with work and did not get a blink of sleep in the afternoon. Not to mention that a certain man did not call her the whole day and that added to her miseries. By the evening, her system was dead tired so she just dressed Yu Jinhai properly.

"Are you alright?" Li Shuang asked, looking at her tired face despite her makeup. 

Yu Mei nodded as she got Yu Jinhai out from the crowd, "Look, this is my younger brother, Yu Jinhai."

Li Shuang paused as she looked at the boy. Conflicted expressions flashed through her eyes though her face remained cold. She squatted, "Hey, you can call me Shuang Jie."

The boy was still blushing after coming out from the crowd of the girls, he smiled, "Hello, Shuang Jie."

"I'll call you Ah Jin. Have you eaten something?" As the boy shook his head, Li Shuang grabbed his hand, "Let's go, I'll take you to eat something. Will you join us?"

"Will your boyfriend be there?" Yu Mei raised an eyebrow, "Don't look at me like that. I just don't like him.''

In the end, under Li Shuang's stern gaze, Yu Mei followed them there. While Li Shuang took Yu Jinhai to get his favorite food, Yu Mei selected a table in the darkest corner before settling on a chair. Putting her clutch on the table, she sighed, "Don't tell me he is not missing me at all?" She clicked her tongue, "Legends are right. It's all about the honeymoon period. Once men get their desired women, they forget to cherish them. When we were not in a relationship, he would miss me even if we were apart for a few hours. But now, he left in the morning and it's already night. Humph! Over...Over... Our honeymoon period is all over." She mumbled under her breath.

"Mei…"

She tilted her head to look at the man who was walking towards her, "We don't know each other. Don't call me with such intimacy." It's creepy. 

She stood up from the chair. 

Zhu Boqin frowned, "You are Shuang's friend so.."

"Your relationship has nothing to do with me. And us being friends has nothing to do with you. You should be clear about that."

She grabbed her clutch from the table only to realize that she has left her phone in the car. 

"Mei, where are you going?" 

She turned around to look at Li Shuang who was walking towards her holding Yu Jinhai's hand, "I left my phone in the car. Can you look after Ah Jin for me?"
