In the extravagant yet extremely girly bedroom on the second floor of the mansion, Ruan Mengmeng was sprawled on the soft princess bed, hugging her pillow and rolling around as she drowned in regret.

If she had not remembered to control her strength, she might already have torn this large bed, with its pink curtains and soft laced down blankets, to pieces.

She regretted it so, so much…

How could she have gotten carried away and promised Mom she would stay?!

Ruan Mengmeng was filled to the brim with regret now, but she could not steel her heart to go back on her promise, so all she could do was vent on the bed alone.

Just then, a cold and deep voice suddenly spoke above her head.

“Are you done with your rolling about? If you are, come down for dinner…”

Ruan Mengmeng stiffened instantly, as though a spell had been cast on her.

After a long while, she finally recovered enough to turn her head and look at the source of the voice with relative composure.

Li Junyu had taken off his suit, so now he was wearing a white shirt and black slacks. Looking lazy yet elegant, he stood by her bed, looking at her coldly.

He looked like a handsome and graceful leopard, but Ruan Mengmeng knew that this was just an illusion.

Just like a leopard, he looked graceful, but he secretly hid a sharpness that could kill his prey in an instant.

Faced with a man like him, Ruan Mengmeng only admired his looks from a distance.

If she tried to approach a man like this, she was afraid he would end up selling her off before she even got to know him better.

She sat up and narrowed her almond-shaped eyes with some displeasure. “First Young Master Li, thank you for coming here to call me for dinner. Still, shouldn’t you knock before coming into my room? I’m a girl, after all… If I just happened to be changing my clothes, wouldn’t you end up seeing my entire body?”

Li Junyu’s black eyes deepened slightly, and he looked her up and down, making no attempt to hide the contempt in his gaze.

His gaze seemed to be saying that he was not interested in her body whatsoever.

“I did knock,” the man said coolly. “As for you…”
