Chapter 171 – Melting The Cold Brother-in-law
The corner of his lips tugged up as he leaned closer to her before settling his lips on her neck. She stiffened all of a sudden feeling his teeth grazing on her delicate skin. "Ah…" An unwanted moan escaped her lips when he bit the spot.
"Taking advantage of you, of course," He pulled back and looked at her with those passionate eyes that have always had a weird effect on her.
Cupping her cheeks, he lowered his head slightly, his lips hovered near hers with his hot breath fanning her sensitive skin. She closed her eyes, ready for the kiss that was going to come. His lips gently touched hers. Teasing the woman with his feathery kiss, his other hand grabbed her slim waist with his fingers caressing her skin.
The direct contact of his fingers with her waist sent ripples through her body and she leaned closer to him. Their lips were inches away as he-
'Ring Ring Ring'
The constant ringing of her phone pricked their love bubble ruthlessly as she opened her eyes, "I'll check who it is.''
It took every ounce of self-control in Jun Zixuan to not look for the caller and throw them in front of a beast in some lost forest. He smiled, "Yes."
'So understanding,' She thought to herself as she grabbed her phone from the side.
Her brows tugged together as she looked at the caller ID. Why would Shi Luo call her amidst her busy schedule? Did something happen to Yu Jinhai?
…
As they waited in front of Shi Luo's apartment standing near their car, Yu Mei noticed the man who was sulking beside her. "What's with that face? You don't like kids?" She couldn't help but ask.
The man who was still upset about the interrupted kiss, pettily replied, "I don't," With that, he continued working on the iPad without looking at her.
She sighed.
Long story short, Shi Luo had to go to Shanghai for a few days and she had called her to ask whether she could keep Yu Jinhai with her for a few days. And Yu Mei didn't have any objections with that, she had long wanted to interact with that little munchkin but because she was staying in the dorms, she had to leave him with Shi Luo.
In fact, her initial thought was to leave Yu Jinhai with Jun Zixuan in the Ren Mansion but that day, he had disappeared for work and the calls didn't go through so she went to Shi Luo's place. But given Jun Zixuan's somber expressions right now, she was glad that she didn't leave that kid with him or else that poor little lamb might have been traumatized till now.
Soon, Shi Luo walked out of the gates holding Yu Jinhai's hand with a bag slung over her shoulder. She let go of the little boy's hand and hugged Yu Mei before dragging her away from both the 'men', "You're glowing so much. Did something happen?" She spoke beside her ear.
"We're dating," She whispered back.
The woman's eyes started glowing as she opened her mouth to say something but then paused and glanced at the time.
Yu Mei laughed, "Just go and do your work. I'll tell you the details when you're back," Shi Luo's face was practically screaming, 'I want juicy spicy gossips' but the work was holding her back so as a friend, she could only console her.
"Promise?"
She nodded.
Shi Luo excitedly went to Yu Jinhai who was looking at Jun Zixuan in a daze and she smothered her face with wet kisses like a Momma hen who was parting from her chick. The guy's cheeks turned pink at his enthusiastic Sister Luo's loving kisses, "I'll try my best to come back as soon as possible."
After Shi Luo left, Yu Jinhai once again glanced at Jun Zixuan who was seemingly busy with his iPad. He circled around him for a few times looking at him from head to toe and his actions got Yu Mei curious. Wasn't he intimidated by Jun Zixuan's cold expressions?
'What is he trying to do?' She stood rooted to her spot and decided to observe where this was going.
Finally, the little guy stopped pacing around the man and tugged at the corner of Jun Zixuan's suit jacket, "Hello Brother-in-law, I am Yu Jinhai. Nice to meet you."
Jun Zixuan had long noticed the guy's presence but he was curious as to what was going on in his mind so he waited for it until he heard the smooth 'brother-in-law' coming out of his mouth. It sounded like music to his ears.
The man who claimed that he was not fond of kids raised his hand and ruffled the boy's hair, "Nice to meet you too."
"Brother-in-law, you can call me Ah Jin," Yu Jinhai's eyes brightened.
"Alright, Ah Jin. Why were you circling around me?"
"I've heard a lot about you. And I noticed that they were all true. You are so handsome, rich, and powerful. Perfect for my beautiful Jie."
Without any further delay, Jun Zixuan carried the little one in his arms, "What do you like, video games or candies?… Leave… I'll just get them all for you."
Yu Mei: "_" Why do I feel like an outsider here?
On their way to Ren Mansion, it went like even though she was sitting in the passenger seat but Yu Jinhai and Jun Zixuan kept talking about the things she was not interested in. Video games, technologies, this, that blah blah blah. She felt like a flower vase sitting in the background.
As they entered the mansion, she glanced at two certain 'men', one big and one small walking inside hand in hand, discussing galaxies and universe and what not while she stood behind them holding the younger one's luggage in her hand.
She glanced at Yu Jinhai's back indignantly. This guy…wasn't he her brother logically? Why wasn't he acting like one then? She remembered how shy and fidgety he was around her last time but he was eager to talk to her at least but this time, all his attention was on his 'brother-in-law'.
She glared at Jun Zixuan, suppressing the urge to strangle him. What happened to the boyfriend who was seeking her attention in the morning? What happened to his words that he didn't like kids?
Is she invisible?
