“Mengmeng, it’s great that you get along with Junyu… Your uncle was worried that Junyu would scare you, since he always looks so stern. But when I heard how noisy you two had been upstairs, I finally feel relieved.”

Ruan Mengmeng sat at the dinner table, pretending not to see Li Junyu sitting opposite her.

However, she had barely picked up her cup when Li Yaoyang’s words made her choke on her saliva.

Did he say she was getting along with that ice block of a man who had nothing but good looks and an evil heart?

Was Uncle Li misunderstanding something? Could he not tell that far from getting along, they were in fact on really bad terms?

Unfortunately, she had no choice but to swallow all of those words.

Li Yaoyang was just too kind to her, so she could not bear to nitpick about their arrangements while she stayed at their home.

After exchanging a few words with Ruan Mengmeng1, Li Yaoyang frowned and asked the butler, “Where are Junting, Junche, and Junxi? Haven’t the three of them come downstairs yet?”

When she heard the name ‘Junting’, Ruan Mengmeng’s ears immediately perked up.

She was a little nervous, and her heart was pounding. Would Second Young Master Li remember what happened last night when he saw her?

Li Junyu, who was sitting opposite her, glanced at the girl’s body as it suddenly stiffened straight as a board. His deep and cold black eyes darkened even further.

“I’ve already sent servants to call them down. They should be here soon.” The middle-aged butler was sweating bullets now. It was nearly impossible to get all four of the young masters to have a proper meal with the Master.

Aside from the strict and disciplined First Young Master, the other three young masters were each more difficult than the other.

Li Yaoyang’s black brows creased, and sparks of anger lit up in his pitch-black eyes.

However, his gaze swept across Ruan Mengmeng, who was still sitting at the dining table, and he forced down the fury that was threatening to overflow.

Inwardly, he sighed. It looked like he had to teach those stupid boys a lesson some other day.

Turning around, he smiled at Ruan Mengmeng as he explained, “Junting, Junche, and Junxi are my other three sons. Of the three of them, the oldest is twenty and the youngest eight. They’re in their rebellious stage right now, so they just love disobeying me.”
