Chapter 234 - Other Intentions
"Ah Xuan, is Mei'er ready?" Shen Lihua walked out of her room before striding towards them. She was feeling unusually nervous today.
She didn't even feel this nervous when she was getting married to Jun Zishen. The least she expected for that family was to not make her children suffer.
Even if they don't accept them, that's fine. She just hoped they would not create troubles for both of them like they did to her back then.
She had initially wanted to stop her son from going there but looking at how persistent he was, she could not do anything about it. Luckily, her daughter-in-law was still sensible and rational about this situation.
It seems like the usually stubborn and impulsive Yu Mei Zhen had finally matured a bit after everything she faced in the past days.
From Li Na's identity to every revelation that followed was still a shock to her. Shen Lihua missed Li Na but she could just hope that her friend was in peace wherever she was.
"I am ready!!"
Everyone's head snapped in the direction of the calm voice and Shen Lihua's jaws dropped in disbelief.
Yu Mei descended the stairs wearing a sleeveless bodycon white dress that flaunted her hourglass figure, the deep V-neck slightly revealed her cleavage. Her long hair was tied in a high ponytail while her face was bare of any makeup, except for the ruby red lipstick on her lips.
Her five-inch high stilettos produced 'click' sounds with every step she took.
Her sexy neckline. Her seductive curves. The slight smirk resting on the corner of her lips. A certain someone's breathing hitched.
Jun Zixuan picked up the glass of juice from the coffee table before gulping it in one go, his eyes remained fixated on the woman all the while. His throat was still running dry though.
Mu Shen and Jun Boyan cheered for her while Shen Lihua pressed a hand on her chest.
Sensible? Mature? What was she even thinking about earlier? This girl was adamant about giving her an early death.
"Hello, everyone, how do I look?" She twirled around, flaunting her beautiful dress and gorgeous looks.
"Sister-in-law, you look like a goddess," Jun Boyan complimented.
Mu Shen nodded, "Can't agree more. As over-bearing, ill-tempered, arrogant you are...."
Yu Mei's eyes darkened, "Are you looking for death?" She glared at him.
''....Let me finish first," Mu Shen gulped, "As over-bearing, ill-tempered, arrogant you are, you have the got the looks that can overturn a nation."
She flipped her ponytail, "Humph."
"Don't cast an evil eye on her," Jun Zixuan narrowed his eyes at the Mu Shen.
Yu Mei stuck a tongue out in his direction.
Mu Shen: "_" No wonder they are a couple.
Jun Boyan stifled his laughter.
"You're going to wear this?" Shen Lihua finally recovered her senses.
Yu Mei smiled like a nice daughter-in-law again but this time Shen Lihua was far from being fooled. She should have known this girl will be up to something like this.
"Ah Xuan, tell her something. You know what kind of people they are..."
"She looks stunning like this," Jun Zixuan pushed himself to his feet before striding towards his darling. He pressed a kiss on her forehead.
She smiled.
Shen Lihua was one step away from getting a heart attack.
Yu Mei walked towards the woman before hugging her.
"I believed your words and this is what I get in return? Do you think everything is a joke? I told you about their likes and dislikes but you dressed up completely opposite. What were you thinking?" Shen Lihua sighed as she spoke softly.
Yu Mei chuckled softly before she whispered beside her ear, "Did you think I am going there to impress them? More like I'm on my way to depress them."
Shen Lihua gasped.
'What a dramatic mother-in-law,' Yu Mei rolled her eyes.
"Did you say something?" Shen Lihua asked.
"No," Yu Mei shook her head as she quickly ran back to her savior. This she-devil of a mother-in-law can be quite scary at times. How could she hear something when she was speaking in her heart?
Jun Zixuan raised an eyebrow, "What's wrong?"
"Nothing."
The couple bid farewell to everyone before they left while Shen Lihua still stood rooted to her spot, looking worried.
"Mom, they can handle everything. Don't worry," Jun Boyan patted her back.
"Ah Xuan is mature but Mei'er is still so impulsive and childish. I don't know if she can really withstand it if anything goes wrong there," Shen Lihua frowned. She just prayed that there won't be a rift in their relationship.
Mu Shen laughed, "You think she is immature? Beauty, you should go out of the villa and see the real world. That woman is an epitome of a devil," He sniggered, "If Old Master Yu would not have interfered that day at the press conference, then your timid daughter-in-law might have ended the Yu Family right in that hall," That's a different thing that the old man didn't have a better temper than his granddaughter either.
Since he had known that his friend was out on a business trip at that time, he drove to the hotel to back her up as soon as he saw the headlines. But by the time he reached there, everything seemed to have sorted out as they were all standing in the lobby before Jun Zixuan picked his wife up and they left.
So, he did not go there.
He sighed.
The term 'woman' itself screams trouble.
Mu Shen sighed again. Other than the times when he gets with them on the bed, he would stay away from them at all other times. That was for the best.
On the other side.
After they drove out of the villa, Yu Mei was very confused when Jun Zixuan parked the car on the side of the road. Much later did she realize that he had other intentions for her. Some that kind of intentions. Bad ones.
