Chapter 217 - Our Wedding Or Your Funeral

She sat there quietly for a few seconds, trying to digest all this information that came out of nowhere. 

"Old Master Yu was against this showbiz business from the very beginning but after his son's death, he did not want all his hard work to go in vain. And your mother took this responsibility into her hands. She studied business and took over the Dream Entertainment."

"And all this while, there was a romantic relationship between her and Jin Jitong?" She stood up from his lap and pressed her finger on her chin in contemplation. 

Jun Zixuan folded one of his legs on the other as he massaged his neck, "That's right. Everyone was unaware of their relationship except for her elder sister."

"Li...My mother was the youngest amongst them?"

"Your father, then your uncle, your aunt, and then your mother. When your grandfather came to know about their relationship, he tried to split them apart but your mother insisted on staying with Jin Jitong and in the end, both of them were kicked out of the Yu Family. The shares of Dream Entertainment all belonged to your mother so she was still the legal owner of the company. And your grandfather didn't interfere with all that but he cut off all the relations with them."

She would never let her feelings sway for the people who are related to the original owner. That was the rule she had made for herself when she found herself waking up in this body. But she broke her rules, again and again, be it for Li Shuang or Li Na or Yu Jinhai. 

Jun Zixuan was an exception though as she knew him since her previous life.

She reminded herself that all of this has nothing to do with her. They are not her family. But in the end, she felt a bit uncomfortable about all this for who knows what reason.

"And as time passed by, Jin Jitong became Yu Jitong while Yu Li Na was reduced to his mistress, Li Na, a woman of unknown origins? Is that it?" She put the files on the couch. 

Jun Zixuan nodded.

"Women should never lose their brains when they are in love. Why do they become so foolish?" She was starting to get more uncomfortable at the thought of it. She could not help but wonder...Was her heart aching for Li Na? She blinked. 

Jun Zixuan raised an eyebrow at her words, "What will you do if I end up doing something similar? Will you break up with me?"

Her head snapped in his direction, "Similar? As in...you will get a new wife and reduce me to your mistress?"

"I used 'if'," He reminded her just in case World War III broke out in the Ren Mansion. 

"You won't do that."

"You trust me that much?" The corner of his lips tugged up. 

I trust you much more. But she was not going to admit it lest it boosts his already high male ego, "I am just confident about myself. Look at my face, my body, my personality... A man has to be a fool to let go of me..." What she said was an undeniable fact though.

The corner of his lips twitched. 

She removed her heels and threw them away before striding towards the couch and sitting beside him. One of her hands grabbed his collar while the other encircled around his neck. She leaned closer to him and glanced at his enticing lips for a second before looking into his eyes, "I think I forgot to inform you about something when we started dating."

"And what is that?" He kissed her earlobe. 

She leaned into his arms. Running her fingers in his hair, she pushed herself back such that they were looking back into each other's eyes, "Once we start dating, there is no break-up. Either we prepare for our wedding, or I will make arrangements for your funeral."

His eyes twinkled, "Have I gotten myself involved with a psycho?"

"It's too late to back out. Don't you think so?"She smirked a bit evilly.

"I'm embracing you with open arms. You think I want to back out?" He chuckled, ''We are married. I'm yours and that's a fact.''

"A fact indeed," She buried her face in his neck.

...

"Zixuan, can we just run away? I don't want to do all this," Yu Mei smiled awkwardly as she tugged at his sleeves. 

"He is your grandfather. Give him a chance, alright?" He glanced at her as they sat on the sofa in the middle of the enormous traditional-styled living room.

She pursed her lips. It was not about giving him a chance or not. "I'm just not used to family stuff," She hated to admit it but she was not a social butterfly. It has always been her brother and her and she was pretty much used to it. Then, Shi Luo was the only one in her circle until Jun Zixuan came into the picture.

"You will have to start somewhere, no? Or you want to break the poor old man's heart?"

Her conscience pricked as she sat there quietly looking around. Unlike the last time she came here with Li Shuang, the place gave off a different homely vibe this time.

There were a few servants here and there who were well hospitable to them. 

After Yu Jinhai's curiosity about the place got satiated, he jumped off the couch before holding Yu Mei's hand, "Jie, I am so excited. We have a family. Let's spend a lot of family quality time together," The boy excitedly blinked his doe eyes. 

She raised an eyebrow, "Can't you tamp down your excitement in your heart and act a little cool?"

"Family is family. Why will I have to act cool? Jie, you are watching television dramas, aren't you?"

The corner of her lips twitched while Jun Zixuan had to stifle his laughter lest he ended up offending her.

"Anyways," Yu Mei narrowed her eyes at Yu Jinhai, ''I have something to discuss with you when we go home."

"About what, Jie?" The boy asked innocently. 

"Regarding your lies," She smiled like a kind elder sister. 

The little munchkin visibly stiffened.
