Not paying attention to Mu Shen, Jun Zixuan glanced at the wine glass in front of him that was filled to the brim.
Mu Shen's eyes widened as he followed his gaze.
Jun Boyan frowned, "Brother, we can sort the matter. You don't need to…." The rest of his words remained in his throat as he watched his brother picking up the wine glass and downing it one go.
Jun Zixuan closed his eyes as the sweet taste of the exquisite wine glide from his tongue down his throat. The image of her talking to that 'ugly' guy flashed in his mind.
When he reached here, Jun Zixuan had sent Steward Gu back to the Ren Mansion so it meant he was going to drive by himself, Mu Shen thought.
"Xuan, you can't drive, you are drunk," He said, looking at the man who was walking towards the Bentley in the parking lot.
Jun Zixuan paused and turned around. "Do I look like I am drunk?" He asked, pointing at his face.
Unlike the time when his mother forced bottles of wine on him, he just drank one glass this time. How could he be drunk?
Although his face was slightly flushed, he hadn't drunk so much to be high instantly. "You don't but…" Mu Shen paused, thinking of a way to come up with proper words.
Jun Boyan shook his head. Who made this fool a film emperor? "Brother, your alcohol tolerance is not good. Even if you took one glass still it's better to stay safe," He walked towards the man, "Tell me where you want to go. I'll drive. How about that?"
Considering how fast his brother came here, he doesn't seem to be going back to his mansion.
"You've grown up well," Jun Zixuan patted his head.
The younger Jun blinked. His brother usually didn't say such words. Maybe it was the little bit of alcohol in his system. But his lips tilted up.
Mu Shen pursed his lips. He felt like going back to his parents and asking them to make a sibling for him. 'Or I can just gift them a honeymoon package. Dad will definitely do well,' He thought to himself looking at the brotherly affection scene playing out in front of him.
"Let's go," Jun Zixuan said as he tucked his hand inside his pocket, "We're going to meet your sister-in-law. I feel she's missing me."
Mu Shen: "_"
Jun Boyan: "_"
Are you sure it's not the other way around?
In the dormitory.
Although she was not used to working out outside the gym but since she missed out on the workout in the morning, she made up for it in the evening. Her body condition did not allow her to slack off even for one day.
Moreover, she had no control over her eating habits which was more of a reason for her to burn some calories.
It was already past 9 pm after she came out of the bathroom, wrapping a small towel around her body.
Walking towards the wardrobe and sliding the door, she glanced at the wide variety of outfits bulging from inside the small space.
She has always been fond of beautiful dresses and outfits but after waking up in this body, she had restrained herself from going on shopping despite having Shi Luo's card. She was determined to lose weight first.
Along with losing weight, she was now back to her position in Rosette. Nothing could be better than that. She thought to herself and tried to smile but her lips just won't lift up for some reason.
Fine. She was not feeling like smiling.
She grabbed a black satin lace-trimmed robe. Removing the towel off her body, she wore the lingerie set that came along with it before putting on the robe.
After blow-drying her wet hair, she walked towards the study table before settling on the chair.
Her gaze landed on her bag that was on the table. Inside it remained the purple rose that she still treasured.
And that reminded her of the man who called her today. She wasn't lying when she told him that she was busy. She had to work out and make the second layer shadings of her designs. There were many things on her plate that made it impossible to get some time for him.
But rejecting him made her…uncomfortable.
She closed her eyes for a moment and when she opened them, those conflicting emotions swirling in them disappeared. Maybe it was for better.
Her relationship with him is not like before. It is turning complicated lately and she preferred to stay away from complicating things. If staying away from him works, that's better.
That guy kicked her out of his mansion for whatever reason it was. That's another thing to take into consideration.
Sighing softly, she started looking through the Chinese Practice book that was given to her by Li Shuang.
As those complicated things written in the book started revolving around her mind, her mind was soon diverted from the man who was claiming all her thoughts lately.
Outside the Dormitory.
"Go...Stop him…What are you looking at?" Mu Shen glared at the guy standing beside him.
Jun Boyan covered his face in his palms as he looked at his brother from the gap between his fingers. The man who was climbing the wall of the girls' dormitory was nothing like his brother whose every move reeked of loyalty. "Brother, you…can't do this," He finally spoke after gathering his courage.
But not paying attention to him, Jun Zixuan jumped on the wall in one swift move like an expert assassin before leaping off the wall as elegantly as a tiger.
Knowing that his brother didn't pay attention to his words, Jun Boyan trailed after him and looked at the high wall before looking back at Mu Shen, "Follow me."
"I am the film Emperor. I won't do things that could possibly ruin my image," He adjusted his shades.
"Mu Shen, can you even see through them? Nobody would recognize you here in the dark," Jun Boyan said pointing at the man's large black shades, "Stay there if you aren't coming." Shaking his head, he struggled to get on the wall.
