"Fatty, what spell did you cast on him? Tell me, did you do black magic on him?''
Jun Zixuan's face darkened.
But before he could say something, Jun Boyan slapped the man's shoulder, "Mu Shen, stop addressing sister-in-law like that. She is so cute already."
Mu Shen nearly had a heart attack. This woman almost fooled him with crocodile tears.?From which angle is she cute?
Yu Mei turned around to look at the young boy who defended her. So, this was the younger brother that Jun Zixuan was talking about? Well, it doesn't seem too bad to have such a sweet brother-in-law.
While she was lost in her thoughts, she did not realize how readily she was accepting her 'brother-in-law' when she had plans regarding divorce.
On the other hand, just as Mu Shen was about to say something, his phone went off. Glaring at the trio, he answered the call before putting the phone near his ear. What he heard certainly made him happy as his face bloomed like a fresh flower. "Yep, wait for me on the dining table," He whispered before hanging up.
"You have plans for breakfast?" Yu Mei asked, curious about his sudden change in mood.
"A delicious and intense breakfast,'' The man replied, leaving her confused.
Jun brothers' lips twitched realizing the man's intense plans.
Mu Shen glared at them, "And you both were in cahoots in defending this fatty. Better forget that you have a friend named Shen," He glared accusingly at Jun Zixuan, hoping for the man to coax him.
"Mr. Mu, it's better if you change your way of addressing her lest your scandals float on the headlines tomorrow," Jun Zixuan indifferently said, the corner of his lips slightly tilted up.
A certain film Emperor looked at him in disbelief written all over his face. "Humph!" Was this man possessed? He thought to himself before storming out of the mansion.
"Don't mind him, sister-in-law.''
Yu Mei turned around to look at the sweet brother-in-law of hers.
Jun Boyan smiled sheepishly, "I am Jun Boyan, your younger brother-in-law," Despite knowing a lot about her, it was his first time meeting her.
He was equally shocked as Mu Shen upon seeing his elder brother's attitude towards her but she was nothing like she was rumored to be. In fact, his sister-in-law was so cute. His brother must have realized this late.
She smiled at the shy guy, "Hey Boyan. I am Yu Mei Zhen. You can call me Sister Mei too," She patted his head. Such adorable guys are rare to pass by.
Jun Boyan blushed, "Sister…"
Jun Zixuan pursed his lips and grabbed the hand that was patting his brother's head.
''What's wrong?" She glanced at him.
"I thought there was something on your hand."
She looked at her hand, "Oh…"
Jun Boyan cleared his throat noticing something amiss, "Sister-in-law is cool too," He smiled at her.
She blinked. What an adorable smile. She raised her hand to pinch his cheeks only for her hand to be grabbed by a certain husband.
"What are you doing?"
"Don't you want to eat anything?" Jun Zixuan frowned, "You have lost so much weight. Let's go and have breakfast first."
She did lose some weight but why was he talking as if her bones were visible?
"Hey, I…"
"So noisy.''
"But I…"
''Breakfast."
Sigh. "Okay. Let's eat then."
Jun Boyan left after they the three of them had breakfast together leaving the couple alone.
In the Master bedroom.
"You are not going to work today?" Yu Mei asked as she folded her arms across her chest and glanced at the man who was walking around with an iPad in his hand.
"No, I am going to meet Mom. I'll be staying there for a few days."
"Oh…" She nodded at him. He should spend some time with his mother, ''What about Boyan? Will he go with you?"
"He will be going back to the university. He has already skipped enough classes."
"Which university is he studying in?" She knew the guy was a sophomore considering he was 20 but she forgot to ask which university he was in.
"Crystal University."
Her eyes widened. Why would he study so far in Amaranthine when his family is here? She wanted to ask the question swirling at the tip of her tongue but she refrained herself from doing so.
"Will you go with me?" The man asked, tilting his head from the iPad and looking at her.
"No, I can't,'' She had her babysitting duties. She simply could not abandon Mia neither could she take her along given that she could not revert back to her fox form.
"Why?" He frowned at how fast her rejection came.
"Well…Today is Saturday so I am not going to the gym but tomorrow, I'll have to go. Can't mess up the schedule," She presented the excuse with utmost seriousness.
"There is a gym in that villa. You can work out there. I'll help you with it," He replied.
"But… my holidays will be over soon…I'll have to go to the classes."
He placed his iPad on the bed and walked towards her, "What's the problem? Can't I send you to the university?"
"You can but…" But I have a baby fox to look after…"I just don't want to go.."
"Oh.."
She blinked. Looking at his dejected face, words came out of her mouth before her brain could function them, "Alright, I'll think about it…" As soon as she finished speaking, she pulled the door and walked out of his room regretting following him after the breakfast.
As soon as she was out of sight, a certain man's dejected expression disappeared. The corner of his lips tugged up as he sat on the bed with amusement flickering in his eyes.
If Yu Mei had seen the current expression on the man's face, she might have cursed her rotten luck to be entangled with different species of foxes.
She entered her room only to find Mia sitting with her legs crossed in what looked like a meditation position.
