She pursed her lips and her face turned a little red.
"Hey hey, do you have to be so violent?" She poked his wrist and blinked, her throat felt a bit constricted when she talked.
"Violent?" He turned to look at her, "This is not me being violent, love," He poked her cheek, a little harshly.
"Ow...You... It hurts..."
"You know hurt? Very well," He poked her again.
His tone was nowhere as soft as always and he was poking her. How was it not violent? But being the one being crushed under heaps of guilt, she lowered her head quietly.
"I was in a hurry..." She mumbled, "And I didn't know what the matter was. I realized it on the way and since I knew your bodyguard is around me, I believed he will make sure to inform you."
Jun Zixuan glared at her.
"I could have dealt with Han Jingyi but I don't know how to deal with her when she is related to Han Family. All of them cherish her a lot and I didn't know what I should do at this point. I was conflicted," She confessed.
Jun Zixuan quietly glanced at her.
"And she... I didn't expect her to mess around with the structures there. I was a little late in reacting so that rod grazed past my shoulder to back," She blinked, not daring to imagine what would have happened if she had not moved back in time, "How is Director Xiang?"
"He is fine," Jun Zixuan glanced at her, "Don't switch the topic."
"Uh.. I was asking out of genuine concern but.." She blinked, "For how long did I sleep?" She asked as she glanced out of the window.
It was dark outside.
"You slept for 3 hours," Han Jian Yu said, standing beside the door.
Yu Mei turned to look towards the source of the voice, "Brother, you are here too?"
Han Jian Yu nodded, "How do you feel?" He walked towards her.
Yu Mei smiled awkwardly, "I don't feel my neck anymore. What does it counts as?"
Jun Zixuan flicked her forehead, "Of course it counts as something good."
"Ow-" Yu Mei rubbed it as she winced.
Han Jian Yu glared at the audacity of the man.
"Your contract did not mention that I can not flick," He said before turning his face.
Yu Mei was speechless, "Alright, I am the one to be blamed in this. I did not expect it. The Han Family treats Han Jingyi so well and no matter how jealous she is or how much she hates me, she was a complete different person today..." Usually, Han Jingyi and her never got along well but today, the side she saw of her was completely different. Han Jingyi looked like she had lost her mind, that creepy smile and that psychotic stare. Every bit of it was imprinted in her mind.
Jun Zixuan inched closer to her before stroking her hair, "You got me worried."
She leaned in to his touch, "I will make sure to not do that again."
Han Jian Yu, not being able to take their PDA anymore, cleared his throat.
Yu Mei turned to look at him while Jun Zixuan pursed his lips, "Brother, you..." she speechlessly glanced at him.
"Hmm?" Han Jian Yu raised an eyebrow.
"You have dark circles, you look pale... what have you been doing all this while?" She asked exasperatedly and almost moved her neck quickly but Jun Zixuan quickly pressed down on her shoulder gently.
Han Jian Yu blinked slowly before shaking his head, "I..."
"He has been lovesick," Jun Zixuan interrupted the man before he could finish his words.
Han Jian Yu narrowed his eyes.
But Jun Zixuan did not seem to be a least bit affected by that gaze as he stroked Yu Mei's shoulder.
"Brother, are you in love?" Yu Mei blinked.
Han Jian Yu opened his mouth to say something but at this moment, his phone buzzed. He checked the text before looking at Yu Mei and Jun Zixuan, "Han Jingyi was taken back by the Han Family."
"I know," Jun Zixuan nodded.
Yu Mei blinked, "As in... Do they know something?"
"That's possible," Both Han Jian Yu and Jun Zixuan replied in unison, leaving Yu Mei speechless. Since when have they been in sync?
...
When Jun Zixuan came, Han Jingyi was caught off guard as she did not expect him to be here. She had made sure that he won't be coming here anytime soon and even if he did, she had made sure to make the place look like an abandoned construction site.
Yu Mei's car was dumped in the backside of the road and there was nothing which would make him suspicious.
But the moment she noticed his presence, she realized that her plan had flaws.
The moment Jun Zixuan glanced at her, Han Jingyi knew that she got herself in a trouble... a big trouble this time. He had always been detached towards her but the coldness in his eyes today was different.
But surprisingly Jun Zixuan did not spare her another glance before he carried Yu Mei in his arms and left the place.
Before she could sigh in relief, she saw a group of men stepping inside and her eyes widened. So, he was not sparing her....
As she looked at the men approaching her, Han Jingyi found herself panicking. Dealing with Yu Mei, getting her isolated and bringing her here was a challenge in itself, but how was she supposed to deal with Jun Zixuan?
'It's all because of that bitch. Why would he do all this for her?
Just as the gears in her mind started running, she spotted a group of men approaching Jun Zixuan's men. She narrowed her eyes. They were Han Family guards. What were they doing here?
Her gaze wandered around and amidst the crowd, she spotted someone she never expected to see here.
It was Han Sheng. What is this old man doing here? She thought to herself.
Her adopted father and Yu Mei's biological father Han Jing treated Han Sheng like an elder brother but she did not have any good feelings towards this old man.
"Tell your Master that the Han Family will give him an answer...'' Han Sheng spoke to one of the guards from the group that had followed Jun Zixuan earlier.
Han Jingyi frowned. He just arrived here, he could not have not known everything that transpired here.. A hint of dread rose in her heart.
