Chapter 66 - Staying At His Penthouse
Chapter 66 – Staying At His Penthouse
Alex took out a Cerulean-colored small card from his pocket before extending it towards her, "Miss, this is what Chief asked me to prepare for you before you. With this, you can board the jets from my company anytime you want and I'll be at your service," He spoke in fluent English.
Jun Zixuan opened his mouth to explain it to her given that he knew the woman was not well versed in English.
But before he could say anything, the woman spoke up in fluent English, "Director Alex, are you sure you don't have a misunderstanding? Did he really ask you to give it to me?'' She asked, with both her eyebrows raised in doubt.
Jun Zixuan looked at her blankly. A few days ago, he read the investigation reports given by Steward Gu. According to it, Yu Mei should know how to cook, she only knew her mother tongue and was weak in her studies. The first and second ones turned out to be the complete opposite of what was said while the third remained unknown.
"You know me?" Alex glanced at her in surprise. He was a very low-key person so he did not expect to be recognized by her.
She stilled. She had traveled a few times with him in the past but she forgot that she was not supposed to know him as Yu Mei, "Well, my husband told me…" She casually said before taking the card from his hand.
A certain husband pursed his lips in displeasure. Why did she have to shove her lies onto his shoulder anyways?
Alex nodded, "Nice to meet you, Miss Yu,'' The man nodded at Jun Zixuan before walking away.
"When did I tell you about him?" Jun Zixuan crossed his arms in front of his chest.
"Err…" They walked towards the car that parked in front, "Well, I lied.."
Jun Zixuan opened the door to the passenger seat for and she quickly got inside.
Steward Gu walked out of the car and held the door of the other side for Jun Zixuan.
"Hey, Steward Gu. Long time no see,'' Yu Mei excitedly started the conversation, all the while avoiding Jun Zixuan's gaze.
"Yes, Miss Yu. How was your trip?" He glanced at the over-enthusiastic person from the rear-view mirror.
She smiled, "I was alright.."
"Raise the partition," Jun Zixuan coldly said.
Steward Gu froze for a split second before complying with the man's orders.
Yu Mei calmly glanced at Jun Zixuan, trying to hide her nervousness.
"You didn't know English and you are supposed to be good at cooking. Will you explain what is going on?"
"I already told you," She closed her eyes before speaking in one breathe, "I am not Yu Mei Zhen."
"Do you think I'd believe such illogical nonsense? It's just the after-effects of reading those fantasy novels all the time."
She rolled her eyes, "Whatever suits you. I'm telling you this once. Don't judge me based on your investigations, you would get nothing. They are all not right," As right as it, it is not about me anyway, "I have always been hiding my true potential all this time.''
"Why is that?" He raised an eyebrow.
"Well…My step-mother would have tortured me otherwise. I was very afraid of Yu Family," As evil as that family was, she still a bit guilty for using them as cannon fodder.
Criminals won't mind one more little false accusation on their head, would they?
Jun Zixuan's face darkened.
Just as he was about to speak, he noticed something. Pulling the partition down, he glanced at Steward Gu, "Why are you driving this way?"
"Master, hasn't Madam told you yet?" The Steward asked in confusion.
Jun Zixuan frowned, "Mom has not told me about…?"
"Well, there is renovation going on in the Ren Mansion according to her taste since she found the current architecture quite old-fashioned. So, till the renovations are over, she wants you both to stay at your penthouse," Steward Gu answered him.
"Drive to the villa in West," Jun Zixuan commanded.
"But Madam is staying there currently."
"The condominium in the east."
"Madam thinks that locality is not suitable for you both."
Jun Zixuan narrowed his eyes, "Then, buy a new house."
Steward Gu pursed his lips, "Madam wants you both to stay at your penthouse. She said that's final."
What is this she-devil planning? Looking at Jun Zixuan's distressed face, she was a bit confused.
He was ready to live anywhere but the penthouse. Is something wrong at that place?
Despite her curiosity, she did not ask anything.
By the time they reached the place, Yu Mei was fast asleep in the car.
Jun Zixuan glanced at Steward Gu, "Give the Yu Family some more problems, especially the step-mother.
Steward Gu nodded, a bit stunned. Seems like the Yu Family's stars are moving in the wrong direction.
Jun Zixuan walked out of the car and walked to the other side before opening the door. He carried the woman in his arms and glanced at the man, "Bring the luggage." He ordered before walking away.
Steward Gu looked at the scene with his eyes popping out in shock. He still remembered the day when his Master threw Miss Yu to the floor.
Then what is going on?
His brother had told him about all this but he did not believe it. Miss Yu and his Master were like the sides of the same coin, how would they get along well?
But looking at the current scene, it seems the couple has progressed a lot in their relationship.
9:00 pm
Yu Mei lazily rolled on the large king-sized bed as she opened her eyes, to find herself at an unfamiliar place. She could see her reflection in the large mirror-styled ceiling. A beautiful crystal chandelier was hanging in the middle reflecting warm hues inside the white and gray-colored room.
The luxury room appeared to be no less than a Presidential suite.
She blinked once… twice… thrice before sitting up on the bed in a flash.
"Where am I…" She mumbled to herself before rubbing her eyes.
"At my penthouse," A deep voice replied.
She turned around to glance at the man who was leaning against the door.
Relief washed over her in the next moment. She was still not used to waking up in new places.
