Chapter 1887: Chapter 1887: It’s All Her Fault for Being Gullible
"..."
Ye Mingmei’s mouth twitched, feeling like she’s losing her ability to speak.
Looking at the butler’s expression was like seeing a ghost.
How come the Yu Xiuzhun the butler talks about seems like a completely different person from the one she sees?
"Miss Ye, perhaps Mr. Yu hasn’t even noticed himself, but he really cares about you. If he comes out and finds that you’ve left secretly, he’ll surely be furious. I’m afraid it might end up hurting you."
The butler tried to persuade Ye Mingmei to stay.
Without Yu Xiuzhun’s permission, no one below dared to let her leave.
"He hit me, so we’re even. As for him scolding Yang Meilan, that’s his own business, I don’t care. I want to go home now. If you’re worried about him being angry, just tell him I’ll invite him to dinner another day."
Ye Mingmei weighed the suitcase in her hand, blinking her pretty eyes, still wanting to slip away.
Standing on Yu Xiuzhun’s turf while speaking to him, she always felt disempowered, as if she could be killed any minute.
Too insecure.
"Miss Ye, the front gate is locked now, and only Mr. Yu has the key." The butler suddenly spoke.
"..."
Ye Mingmei’s body froze instantly, glaring angrily at the butler.
So the butler was playing her all along?
The key is with Yu Xiuzhun, what’s the point of saying all this nonsense?
She thought she could soon escape the clutches...
Ye Mingmei’s excited face immediately drooped.
"You weren’t lying to me?"
"Miss Ye, I really wasn’t. Mr. Yu usually doesn’t manage the villa’s comings and goings, but because you’re here..."
The butler didn’t finish but just looked up at Ye Mingmei.
The meaningful gaze, anyone could sense it.
Just her bad luck!
The little bit of emotion Ye Mingmei had just managed to muster instantly vanished.
She stuffed the suitcase into the butler’s hands, turned back grumpily, and went upstairs towards Yu Xiuzhun’s study.
Fuming, she didn’t even bother to knock, storming in and pushing open Yu Xiuzhun’s study door.
Just about to speak, when she saw the scene inside, she froze.
Blinking her beautiful big eyes, suddenly forgetting what she wanted to say.
Yu Xiuzhun’s tall figure leaned casually on the sofa chair, holding a pen in one hand, signing documents.
His other hand tapped the desk intermittently, as if contemplating something.
His short hair, caught in the light, had a hint of auburn hue, cold yet slightly wicked.
His handsome face shone with a porcelain-like glow, against the light, his deep features became even more defined and captivating.
The serious look on his face made him especially alluring due to his focus.
Ye Mingmei saw Yu Xiuzhun in his working mode for the first time, somewhat taken aback.
Blinking several times, unable to speak.
"Awake." Yu Xiuzhun was the first to notice Ye Mingmei standing at the door, suddenly tossing the pen aside and rising from the desk.
Stepped forward to her, looking down at her dazed little face.
Raised a hand, touched her cheek.
Couldn’t let go.
He liked her looking at him like this, a bit silly yet fascinated.
"Don’t touch me." Ye Mingmei snapped back to reality, immediately slapping his hand away, looking up angrily.
"You said you’d send me home, but instead you brought me here. You liar who doesn’t keep your word!"
She must have been out of her mind to dare fall asleep in his car!
