Zhu Chen didn’t stay for a long time. After drinking the coffee and telling some small details to Xu Mey, he left.

  Xu Mey called Qin Hao and said, "Send my little Jun inside." The tone of her voice made even Qin Hao shudder.

  Qin Hao went to Ye Jun who was comfortably playing games on his cell phone and said, "Sir, President Xu is calling you inside."

  "Okay!" Ye Jun made the ’okay’ sign with his hand and stood up happily.

  Looking at his enthusiastic face, Qin Hao could only sigh. "Sir, best of luck!" He raised two thumbs to encourage Ye Jun but the latter was a bit dense since he just frowned and knocked at the door.

  The door instantly opened and he was pulled inside at the lightning speed and he only came around when his back made contact with the hard door. He closed his eyes as he winced. And when he opened them, he had a sudden Deja Vu moment.

  Xu Mey was standing face to face with him trapped between her and the hard door behind. He tilted his head a bit to see her hand right beside his face and thought, ’Is it just I or both my brother and sis-in-law are playing this Kabedon to the wrong person? They should be doing it to each other. Not to me!’ he made a crying face and looked at Xu Mey’s narrowed eyes.

  "My great aunt, what have I done now?" He really was at the verge of crying.

  "What did you say to Ah Jie yesterday? How much did you speak?" Her questioning manner was quite similar to Ye Jie- intimidating.

  "Not much," he squeaked guiltily.

  "Jun!" she raised her voice a bit making Ye Jun tremble for some reason.

  "Let me go, I’ll tell you everything." He readily agreed. Xu Mey walked back letting him breathe freely.

  With much effort, Ye Jun managed to take a seat at the couch and related the things he told Ye Jie including the things about Fu Shuang. Xu Mey closed her eyes briefly to swallow down her anger.

  "Jun, you blabbermouth! Who told you to talk about Fu Shuang? I was going to tell him myself."

  Ye Jun felt wronged. "Sis, first of all, bro is really scary when he wants to be. He’s only a good boy when you’re around. Second of all, don’t focus on what I said, focus on the fact that bro was jealous. That’s the key point here." Sure enough, Xu Mey got in his words.

  "Ah Jie was jealous?" She asked with amusement dancing in her eyes.

  "Yes…… He was really jealous." Ye Jun heaved a sigh of relief when he realized that she was over her anger for the moment.

  She suddenly stopped smiling making Ye Jun’s breath hitch. "I’m letting you go easily just this once. Next time, if you opened your damn mouth, I’m gonna cut your tongue and feed it to dogs." Ye Jun instantly covered his mouth with both of his hands.

  "Drink that water and get back to your senses. We have important stuff to discuss." She pointed towards the glass of water at the table and came behind her desk to take her seat.

  Ye Jun picked the glass of water, drank it in one go and took deep breaths to calm himself. After that, he walked up to the chair before her desk and plopped down on it.

  "I’m ready!" he announced.

  "We’re not going on a war. Mr. I’m ready." Her sarcasm made Ye Jun scrunch up his face. "I need you to do something." She started.

  "What?" He inquired.

  "I need you to find out the reason behind why Ah Jie is living as your brother." Ye Jun’s shoulders slumped down at her words.

  "Sis, do you think that I haven’t tried?" He arched his brows. "I’ve already looked into it but couldn’t find anything."

  "Nothing?" She was certain that something should be there how can he not find anything.

  "Ah! There is one thing."

  "What?"

  "Whatever secret there is, only mom knows about it." Xu Mey frowned.

  "How are you sure?"

  "Because sis, mom always keeps the pretense of being a loving and caring mother whenever dad is around. She only stops caring for bro when dad is not around. And I’ve done thorough research on this. Dad really loved bro even more than me. It’s always the mom who shows the partiality." Ye Jun explained.

  Xu Mey pondered for a moment. "’Hmm…… It does seem like your mom is the key in this mystery." She took a pause and added, "How about you tell me something about your parents’ love story?"

  Ye Jun gaped at her. "What love story? I don’t think they have any."

  "What do you mean? If they don’t have any then how did they get married?" She questioned with exasperation.

  "I don’t know. Dad doesn’t like talking about his wedding part."

  "Then that’s where we’re starting from. Look for a way to know about how your parents got married." Xu Mey ordered.

  "Do I have to?" Ye Jun was reluctant but the way Xu Mey squinted her eyes made him swallow the rest of his reluctance instantly.

  Suddenly, Xu Mey’s phone rang and she smiled staring at the screen. "Hi, Ah Jie!" At the sound of that beautiful soft voice, Ye Jun wanted to vomit blood.

  ’You are the biggest prejudiced person I’ve ever met in my life, sis!’ he really wanted to scream but he knew that she’ll murder him so he had to keep his mum.

  "Hi, baby! Is your soreness better?" Xu Mey passed a look to Ye Jun and rotated her chair to hide her blush from him.

  "It’s better after the warm shower." She replied in a low voice.

  Ye Jie: "Oh, that’s good. I’m really sorry for leaving in a hurry."

  Xu Mey: "It’s alright." After a moment of silence, "Why did you call?"

  "Am I not allowed to call my wife?"

  "I didn’t say that."

  He chuckled softly. "I’ll come to pick you up at 5 today. So, you better be done by then."

  "At 5 o’clock? Isn’t that early?"

  "I have a surprise for you, baby. Now, I’m gonna hang up. I love you and I’m missing you so much." Xu Mey grinned widely as he hung up the phone.

  As Ye Jun looked at her grin, he felt like banging his head somewhere. He stood up and grumbled, "I’m leaving. I can’t swallow any more than this."

  Xu Mey neither knew what he was talking about nor she cared about it. She just held her phone and kept staring at it completely disregarding the fact that Ye Jun was leaving.

  Poor Jun could only sigh and leave her alone with her goofy grin.
