Chapter 187 - Orders To Be Followed (2/2)

Unable to hold herself back anymore, she felt a rage overtake her.

”You dumb a**!” Yue Wan shouted, covering her ċhėst and throwing a pillow at his face.

With a smirk, he dodged it and jumped out of the window, but not before saying: ”Good Night, love. Dream of me every night.”

She curled herself into a ball. Her small, soft, rosy face was buried in the pillow as she comfortably slept. But hidden within her pillow, her lips were smiling unconsciously.

----Two days later----

”Ding dong! Ding dong!”

The sound of the doorbell rang echoed throughout the house.

Uncle Wang had already received the news about Yue Xue's arrival, so he escorted her inside.

Yue Xue's lemon long hair was straight like a waterfall and she wore a white dress. She brought an unexpected person along with her as she entered the Yue Villa.

'Every time I see this Young lady, I feel like something is wrong,' he thought before leaving the two Young Misses in the living room.

”You are here!” Yue Wan smiled gently before walking over to sit on the opposite couch.

Yue Xue nodded towards Yue Wan and said softly, ”Younger Sister Wan.”

Yue Wan nodded her head blandly at Yue Xue but carefully sized the person next to her up and down.

”I did not expect you to bring Miss. Jing here, cousin. That's a pleasant surprise.”

The corners of Yue Xue's lips curled upwards like she was waiting for it: ”A few days ago, the Young Miss Jing helped me out and we quickly became best friends. As such, I knew I just had to introduce you to her. However, I didn't expect you both to already know each other.”

Yue Wan furrowed her brows a little, but masked it by slipping a tea: ”Cousin is joking. I am busy with exams, where would I get the time to chit chat with others?”

Jing Zhe, Xiao Ran's cousin, chuckled gracefully: ”Haha, Miss Yue, you're so funny. We did meet each other more than once. Maybe your memory is just poor.”

Yue Wan sneered: ”Forgive my memory, it tends to forget useless things these days.”

Jing Zhe's smile faded and her expression turned cold. She didn't expect it to be humiliated like this again.

She felt like getting up from her seat and giving Yue Wan a tight slap across her face, but a familiar figure caught her attention from the corner of her eye.

Yue Xiang calmly walked inside the living room followed by his ȧssistant Yang Zhen with some files in his arms.

Changing her tactics, Jing Zhe plastered an overly bright smile on her face: ”Miss Yue, I read about your achievement on the WAX discussion forums. In the name of Grandpa Xiao, I came here to congratulate you on winning the WAX award.”

Following that, Jing Zhe placed a delicate little box on the coffee table in front of Yue Wan.

It was a pair of jade bracelets, crystal clear and multi-colored glass jade. The current market price for this pair was about eight million dollars and its appreciation would be quite considerable in the future.

Jing Zhe was playing the Xiao name card so that Yue Wan would be forced to give her face, and at the same, she could use this opportunity to shine before her man with her generosity.

”Thank you, Miss Jing. It's beautiful,” Yue Wan closed the box and acted like she didn't understand her intentions.

”As long as you like it.” After Jing Zhe was done with her, she turned to Yue Xiang with a much warmer and gentler gaze.

However, Yue Xiang completely disregarded the duo's presence, he just gave his sister a nod before leaving the villa.

Jing Zhe's jaw dropped and she looked like a clown in Yue Wan's eyes.

Yue Wan managed to stop her laughter with a great effort and said...
