Ye Jun, on the other hand, was in a dilemma. He looked into the stormy eyes before him and said, "Shuang?"

  Seeing Fu Shuang at Jun Li Na’s door and that too early in the morning was really shocking for Ye Jun. Fu Shuang darted his eyes from Jun Li Na’s bathrobe to Ye Jun’s disheveled clothes and his mind went blank for a moment.

  He instantly held Ye Jun’s collar and pushed him against the wall, "What the hell are you doing here?" He spoke through gritted teeth with extreme difficulty.

  "Ah! Man, I can ask you the same question, " Ye Jun pointed out.

  Jun Li Na was shocked seeing both of them glaring and bickering with each other and couldn’t help but shake her head.

  "Shuang, let him go!" She sharply said, taking a step towards them.

  Fu Shuang looked at her and noticing her scowl, he loosened his grip. "And what the fu*k are you trying to imply with that look?" she asked looking accordingly at Fu Shuang.

  Fu Shuang cleared his throat and looked at Ye Jun again saying, "I’m not implying anything."

  "Oh, really? Then why are you acting like this with Ye Jun?" She crossed her arms before her.

  "That’s because Li Na, I don’t trust young master Jun at all especially when it comes to girls." Fu Shuang said straightforwardly.

  "Woah! Man, you sure are good friend huh! How can you accuse me like this?" Ye Jun felt offended since Fu Shuang said everything before Jun Li Na of all people.

  "Stay quiet, Jun!" Fu Shuang cast a warning look to Ye Jun. "And you, " he turned to Jun Li Na, "what is he doing here at this time?"

  "He was helping me." Seeing Fu Shuang’s perplexed look, Jun Li Na related the entire happenings of last night.

  After listening, Fu Shuang gave an apologetic look to Ye Jun. "Sorry for the misunderstanding. But that doesn’t mean that I trust you around her." He still warned Ye Jun.

  "What are you saying?" Ye Jun looked at Fu Shuang. "Oh, wait! Are you her fiancee? This is not happening. Gosh! Why am I so unlucky?" Ye Jun was mumbling when Fu Shuang delivered a slap to his head.

  "Have you lost your mind? She’s my cousin. Don’t run your stupid mind for no reason." Ye Jun heaved a sigh in relief at his explanation.

  "How is she your cousin? Don’t you only have one Aunt?" Ye Jun questioned looking at Fu Shuang.

  "Both of you stop talking at the door and just come inside." Both of them heard Jun Li Na’s voice who was going towards her bedroom.

  Fu Shuang took a paper bag from his assistant and walked inside with Ye Jun towards the living room.

  After settling on the sofa, Fu Shuang answered Ye Jun’s question, "Her grandmother was my grandfather’s sister and that’s how we are cousins."

  "Oh, distant relatives." Ye Jun said.

  "Not that distant as you think." Fu Shuang commented.

  "So, you’re not the fiancee?" Ye Jun inquired again.

  "Of course not, Jun." Fu Shuang spoke in an irritable manner.

  Ye Jun looked at Jun Li Na’s closed door and asked, "Then who is the fiancee?"

  "Stay for a while, he’ll be here soon. I invited him." Fu Shuang’s words were akin to a dagger that pierced Ye Jun’s heart. Why on earth would he want to stick around? No matter, how curious he was about that person that doesn’t change the fact that this fiance was the biggest hurdle in his love life.

  Before Ye Jun could refuse, he heard a phone’s ringtone and rummaged out his phone. "Hello!" He answered half-heartedly.

  "Hi, Jun-Ge!" Ye Jun heard Azalea’s voice from the other end making him smile.

  "Oh, hey, little princess! Don’t tell me our little princess called because she wanted her Ge to spend the weekend with her?"

  "Wow! Jun-Ge is awesome. That’s exactly why I called you."

  Ye Jun chuckled. "Should I come to pick you from home? How about you ask Sis Mey as well, it’ll be a pleasant weekend with all of us." Although Ye Jun said Xu Mey’s name on instinct, the way Fu Shuang stiffened at that name made Ye Jun smirk as if to say, ’Hurt me with Jun Li Na’s fiancee? Don’t forget I have a bigger card.’


  Yes, he was acting petty but who cares?

  "First of all, I’m not home. And second of all, I don’t think Sis Mey is going to be able to even get out of bed today." Ye Jun frowned at Azalea’s words.

  "Why wouldn’t Sis be able to get out of bed today? Is she feeling sick? I should go to check." Ye Jun was seriously anxious to hear.

  "Stop it, Ge!" Azalea laughed out loud. "Ge, are you acting innocent or you really are?"

  "Huh?"

  "Oho! Ge, if Jie-Ge and sis Mey are together and it’s weekend, then do you think that both of them would be getting out of bed?" Understanding Azalea’s meaning, Ye Jun choked on air and coughed loudly.

  "Gosh! Little princess, you shouldn’t be talking about such things." Ye Jun reprimanded her lightly.

  "Okay. I won’t but are you coming or not?" Azalea changed the topic.

  "I’m coming but where do I have to come?"

  "Oh, wait!" Azalea said to Ye Jun and he heard her calling someone, "Wang-Ge, what’s the address of your place?"

  "Penthouse. Star Heights." Wu Wang answered plainly.

  "You heard that?" She asked Ye Jun.

  "Yeah, I heard that and coincidentally, I’m also at Star Heights."

  "Really?"

  "Yup."

  "Then come up already."

  "Okay, give me a sec. I’ll be right there." Ye Jun disconnected the call and turned to look at Fu Shuang’s blackface. "Shuang, I’m gonna leave now."

  "Are you leaving?" Jun Li Na asked coming out of her room in a pair of shorts and a simple tank top.

  "Yeah, my little princess is calling. I have to leave. Bye!" Ye Jun didn’t realize that his face’ happiness was really misleading for people but he didn’t care either.

  In just a week or so, Azalea and he had become really close as if they had known each other for years. Both were alike at some level and that helped in creating a special bond between them. Now, he didn’t just call Azalea little princess, he even treated her like one.

  They say blood is thicker than water but the relationships of hearts tend to be stronger than any other.

  Before he walked out of the living room, he stopped and turned to look at Fu Shuang. "Master Shuang!"

  "Hm." Fu Shuang looked at Ye Jun who was grinning broadly.

  "Next time before hitting me just remember one thing. You will hit me once but my sister-in-law will kill you twice." Fu Shuang glared at Ye Jun making his grin even widely. He turned to leave but stopped again. "And did I mention that my sis-in-law loves me a lot, a little less than she loves my bro but still I’m only second in line." Burning Fu Shuang with his words, Ye Jun felt accomplished and left.
