Chapter 117 - She Looked Like Young Miss
Yu Mei was excited that she could vent her frustration by bullying Zixuan 1, 2, and 3 but they were so docile that she soon lost her interest. The original Jun Zixuan would never be this submissive so her revenge certainly did not taste sweet.
After shooing the escorts away, she stood up from the barstool and walked towards the exit but she could not seem to figure out where the exit was. Her head was aching terribly as she staggered back and forth.
''Ah…" She winced when she bumped into someone in the process.
"Are you blind?" Rubbing her eyes harshly, she tried to clear her blurry vision as she tilted her head to look at the person who bumped into her, "B-Brother…?" was the first word that escaped her mouth looking at the man behind the silver mask which covered half of his face.
She immediately hugged his shoulder, desperately clinging to him so that he won't disappear.
''Do you want to die?" The man's cold voice sounded above her head.
She grew up hearing that ever so familiar voice. It sounded like music to her ears.
"I do…I do.." She nodded like a chicken before shaking her head frantically, "No..No..I don't."
''Stay away," The man who was talking on the phone pushed her away ruthlessly but she clung to his arm like a koala.
A man came from behind, "Sir, I'll deal with her…"
The man nodded without glancing at the person who was reeking of alcohol, "Fast," He commanded.
''Yes…."
"Brother...Why did you come so late?" Tears welled up in her eyes as she tilted her head to look at the man.
It was only then did the person turn his head to look at her.
''Stop,'' He said when his man approached to take away the girl who was clinging to him.
"Brother," She looked at him unblinkingly with a stubborn gaze that said 'I am your sister'.
The man instinctively raised his hand towards her face but he quickly put it down when he realized what he was doing, ''You got the wrong person,'' he said, his voice was softer than before.
"Brother…"
Looking into those dark starry eyes, myriads of emotions flashed on his face.
Before he could say anything, he noticed that a few people were looking at them. He touched the mask on his face. It was still there then why were people looking their way?
Little did he know that the person who was clinging to him was overnight fame in the club.
Many people who had witnessed her fiasco could not help but look at her again and again.
''Let go," He said but the woman hugged his arm even tighter.
''Get the car," He said to the man standing beside him and walked towards the exit still with the woman clinging to him while holding his hand in a death grip.
''Will you let go of me now?" He asked as soon as they were out of the place as they stood under a tree.
''I've been looking for you for weeks…Brother, where had you d-disappeared to?" Her voice was barely above a whisper, "I suffered a lot. I don't want to be here anymore. I-" Tears rolled down her cheeks as she loosened her grip on the man's hand and hugged his waist burying her face in his chest, ''I-I should have listened to you."
Not knowing what to do, the man raised his hand to stroke her back.
''Yu Mei Zhen?" A voice sounded from behind causing him to pause in his action, realizing that the person in his arms was mistaking him for someone else while he was seeing someone else through her.
He distanced her from himself and turned around to look at the person who came, "You know her?" He asked.
"My classmate," Li Shuang answered, looking at the Yu Mei who could barely keep her eyes open but she did not have any intentions of leaving the man's arm.
The man nodded, "That's better then," He tried to shake her off but the woman did not budge from her position, ''I'll drop you both. Is that fine?"
Li Shuang hesitated as she looked at her phone. As she glanced at Yu Mei's current condition, she eventually nodded, ''I'll thank you then.''
As they sat in the backseat of the black sedan, Li Shuang tried to pull Yu Mei towards herself but she was busy hugging the mysterious man who was sitting on the other side.
As the car pulled off in front of her apartment, a frown settled on Li Shuang's cold face as she looked at Yu Mei who had already fallen asleep in the man's arms while the man sat straight like he did not care. Because of his mask, she could not see his expressions.
''Mister, can you get someone to send her upstairs?" She asked straightforwardly. From the moment they got inside the car, she noticed there were many cars following after this one so it did not take her long to guess that they might be working under this man.
She could not pick up a sack-like Yu Mei so the only option left was to ask for his help again.
''Yes,'' Said the man without looking at her. And as soon as he said that, the man who was sitting on the shotgun seat alighted the car and opened the door to the backseat before effortlessly carrying Yu Mei.
''Thank you," Li Shuang nodded at the man sitting in the car before pointing the way for the person who was carrying Yu Mei, ''This way, please…"
The man removed the silver mask off his face revealing his devilishly handsome features.
''Sir, she looked like young Miss…" The driver said, glancing at the man's emotionless face.
''She did."
"If Young Miss was here, she would have gotten jealous that another girl called you brother," As much he knew the man, the driver was sure that he would not have let that girl approach him if not for her familiar face, let alone drop her here.
