Chapter 100 - Special Ocassion?
Chapter 100 – Special Ocassion?
Whatever Mia revealed to her kept revolving around her mind, messing up her system a bit. She was still baffled at all those things. And that fox did not even complete the story. She simply changed her outfit and went to cultivate.
Wait…what did she call the crop top? Robe… Yu Mei stifled her laughter reminded of the fox's antics.
Suddenly the apple fell from her hand and her eyes widened. Dammit!
She ran upstairs immediately without looking back.
Steward Gu who was passing by noticed her strange behavior and chased after her. ''Miss Yu,'' He called out but either the woman could not hear him or she just ignored it.
Yu Mei could hear Steward Gu's voice from behind but she did not have the time to stop at the moment. Without thinking about anything, she ran towards the laundry room and pushed open the door.
Her chest heaved up and down as her heartbeat raced because of how fast she ran. Sweat droplets glistened on her forehead.
"Miss Yu?"
Yu Mei glanced at the woman standing near the washing machine before looking around for her laundry basket. She grabbed it from the floor as she panted.
"Miss Yu, is everything alright?" Steward Gu, who had followed after her asked looking at the basket in her hand. Did she run all the way in a hurry to get the basket?
Yu Mei glanced at the man as she nodded, "I think I left something in this," She said pointing at the basket in her hand. "Zixuan had asked for coffee. Please get it for him after it is prepared," she added.
"I'll get it for Master," Steward Gu politely replied.
She nodded again before walking back to her room.
As soon she was out of sight, Steward Gu glanced at Lisa, "Did you do something?" He asked doubtfully.
Lisa shrugged, "What could I have done? I was here to wash the clothes."
''You better not be up to something," warned the man before walking away.
Lisa's expression shifted when the man turned around. She gritted her teeth and glared at his retreating back. Just you wait. I will get back to you soon!
Yu Mei locked the door behind her and emptied the contents of the laundry basket on the floor.
A sigh of relief escaped her lips when she found the pink crop that Mia was wearing earlier.
The crop top was of her size which did not fit Mia and the girl used her powers to make it fit for herself.
One glance at it and one would know it was a kid's cloth.
She had completely forgotten that she had put it in this basket. Luckily, no one saw it.
Or that was what she thought!
The next two days were very uneventful as her routine went like usual, back and forth between gym to university then to the mansion.
Amidst all this, Mia had yet to wake up from her sleep.
Because of the barrier she placed around herself, even though Yu Mei could touch her easily but maybe her voice didn't reach the fox because there was no response from her. It even bothered her a bit.
She wondered if anything was wrong with Mia but she was completely clueless regarding how she could help her or if she could even help her or not.
After all, Mia was much more powerful than any ordinary person.
On this particular day, Jun Zixuan was driving her to the university.
"You don't need to do this every day. I can drive myself," These were the same words that she had been repeating for the last two days but as usual, when did the man listen to her? He did what he wanted.
''You don't have any work to do?" After all, he was a billionaire. How could he have the leisure to drop her at university and pick her up every day.
"I have finished one month's work in advance," The man casually said.
She was speechless, "Pass off some of your greatness to me, Master!" She had the urge to kowtow.
Even one of her designs sometimes takes more than one month to be completed. How could he finish one month's works in advance so easily?
He laughed and parked his car on the side of the road, "Here we are."
She nodded and pushed open the car door before alighting.
"Call me when your classes are over," He said.
She nodded and shut the car door before crossing the road.
She could be counted as lucky as the days in university were going smoothly without any unwanted troubles. More so peaceful because she had yet to bump into the people from Yu Family.
'As long as they love their life, they better not try to mess with me,' She bit her bottom lips. Everything has been so peaceful that sometimes it seemed like a calm before storm.
Just as she was walking towards her classroom, her gaze landed on the basketball court in the distance.
She checked the time on her wristwatch. It was time for her class already. 'I'll go there some other day,' she thought to herself and entered the class.
Her fellow 'classmates' went quiet the moment she stepped inside. She could still hear some hushed voices in the background though.
'Were they badmouthing me?' She thought to herself.
Feeling their hard stares, she straightened her back.
Do they want to look at her? Fine, she will give them a perfect ramp walk.
She walked towards the last desk like an international model who was walking on the red carpet. Taking off her bag and putting it on her desk casually, she glanced around the grand hall-like classroom.
Her gaze provocative as if she was asking 'Want more of my charm?'
The students awkwardly averted her gazes.
She let out two 'humph humph' in her mind and flipped her hair before taking a seat.
Right at this moment, Professor Zhang stepped inside the classroom. After greeting the students, she glanced at the Class President, "Submit the attendance to me."
Yu Mei could see the confusion on the students' faces.
''Hey, why are all of them so surprised?" She poked the girl's shoulder who was sitting in front of her.
Getting poked by her, the girl acted as if she was carrying some virus and distanced herself.
Yu Mei rolled her eyes.
"Professor asks the class President to submit the attendance only if there is some special occasion. But how would you know when you don't even attend class regularly?" The girl scoffed.
"TMI," Yu Mei waved her hand.
"What is that?" The girl tilted her face to the side, seemingly confused.
"Too much information," Yu Mei coldly said, "I asked you something. I did not ask for a free lecture from you.''
Taken aback by the coldness in her tone, the girl turned her face to the front.
Why would she carry the blame for anything she never did? Even though she understood that people did not know about the truth and who she was. But she was still a bit frustrated with all these things.
Her brows tugged together as she looked at the Professor talking to the class President. What kind of special occasion could it be? She wondered.
