Chapter 242 - Nosebleed

His finger slid out of her panty slowly stroking her. She gasped, one step away from grabbing it to put it back there.

This was the exact reason she avoided physical contact with this man as much as she desired it. He was dangerous. 

Dangerous for her body, soul, and heart and she was afraid that if things didn't work out between them in the future or if they parted, then it will be the endgame for her because she was getting used to him so much so that...a few hours without him were enough to make her day dull.

He grabbed her neck before pressing a kiss on her chin. 

'Knock Knock'

"S-Someone's there..."

"Let them be," His hot breath stroked her neck.

"Third Young Master, everyone is waiting for you downstairs."

"Ah..."

"What's wrong?" Jun Zixuan looked at her in concern.

Yu Mei took advantage of his momentary distraction and rolled to the side getting out of the cage named 'Jun Zixuan'. "Third Young Master, we are getting late," She stood up from the bed and glanced at him, "I am a virtuous daughter-in-law, can't make them wait like this," With that said, she quickly adjusted her robe and ran inside the walk-in closet afraid that the man would pounce on her if she delayed any longer. 

Jun Zixuan slumped on the bed as he raked his fingers through his hair. As if yesterday's two-hour-long cold shower was not enough. 

'Knock Knock'

"Get lost!'' He snarled.

At the Breakfast Table. 

As soon as the couple ascended the stairs, hand in hand, the stifling atmosphere in the enormous mansion got tense. 

Old Master Jun stood up from his chair followed by Old Madam Jun. 

"She is not welcomed here," The old man's face remained straight as ever as he coldly said. 

Jun Zixuan pulled out a chair for Yu Mei without paying attention to his words. 

Unbothered by anything, Yu Mei sneaked a look at the old couple, "Heya, Grandma, Grandpa, why are y'll boiling early in the morning?" She grabbed an apple from the fruit basket, "You should chill more. You know...old age is rather unpredictable. Who knows what will happen if you keep fuming like this?" 

The servants: "_"

It was their first time witnessing such boldness in the Jun Manor. 

Old Master Jun did not bother to look at the indecent woman who is rumored to be his grandson's employer but one could see his annoyance by the way he pursed his lips. 

Old Madam Jun however could not resist glaring at the woman, "Are you cursing us to die?" 

Yu Mei feigned shock, "Do I look that kind of woman?" She shook her head, ''That hurt me. Your angry attitude reminded me of an old woman I read about on the news. She acted like the world owed her and all her anger took a toll on her health. She passed away from cardiac arrest. I won't want such things to happen with my in-laws."

"You..." Old Madam Jun pointed her finger at her. This audacious woman!

"Enough!" Old Master Jun interrupted the fiasco, his grip on his cane tightened, "Get out of here unless you want your career to be destroyed overnight.''

"I have been successful all my life. It's getting boring. Now I want to see how a destroyed career looks like," Yu Mei smiled like the innocent girl that she was, "That is...only if you can show me."

Old Master Jun slammed his cane on the table, the cutlery set landed on the ground, smashing into pieces because of the huge amount of force applied on them.

Old Madam Jun flinched. 

Yu Mei glanced at the old man nonchalantly. She has lost count of the number of times Jun Zixuan had slammed the door in anger, louder and harsher than this. She was not even scared of that, where did the old man get the confidence that he can scare her?

"After knowing his identity as the Young Master of the Jun Family, you should know that you are unqualified to keep him," The Old Man said after taking a deep breath. 

"Umm...I know," Yu Mei munched on her apple as she glanced at the man who was standing behind her, engrossed with his iPad. She made a mental note to ask him to marry that square thing.

The old couple exchanged glances. The CEO of an Empire like Rosette would not be a fool or sure. 

Old Madam Mo opened her mouth, ''So-"

"I'm ineligible to keep him," Yu Mei blinked, "But I can be kept by him," Be kept as his darling forever. Ah, how good would that be? 

Jun Zixuan raised an eyebrow as he looked at her side face, the corner of his lips unconsciously tugged upwards.

Old Madam Jun pressed a palm on her chest. Were all youngsters this brazen now?

Old Master Jun squinted, "My house, my rules. You should be gone-"

"She stays," Jun Zixuan sat beside her before putting his iPad on the table. 

"You dare to talk back? Jun Zixuan, when did you became so audacious?" The Old Man narrowed his eyes dangerously as he stepped closer to the man. Years of not seeing him and he has gotten so bold, unlike the young boy who won't make a sound despite being locked in a dark room for days. 

Jun Zixuan folded one of his legs on the other as he leaned back on the chair. His mirthless eyes glanced at the old man, "I dare to do many things. Try me." 

A certain woman's apple dropped on the floor as her inner self cheered for the man with two glittery pom-poms in her hand. She grabbed the tissues before wiping the blood off her nose. 

"What's wrong?" The cold expression from his face was replaced with a gentle and concerned one. 

'You were too hot that I got a nosebleed' It would be too shameful to admit it. Yu Mei lowered her head. She could not believe she was so easily seduced. "Nothing much..." she mumbled. 

Jun Zixuan sighed before getting to his feet, "Let's go out for breakfast," He extended his hand towards her. 

She wiped her nose properly and hooked her index finger with his before standing up. 

Jun Zixuan glanced at their hooked fingers in amusement. What a weirdo she was! A cute weirdo.
