Chapter 572 - POSSESSIVE BEAUTY (1/2)

The couple walked to the door of the mansion. The short walk reminded Hu Lei of the time they went to visit Yuan Haoran in Romania. It seemed like the so-called demon king liked living in isolated places with an eerie atmosphere.

This time, the door was opened by a gorgeous girl instead of the witch-like old woman.

”Sleeping beauty!” Hu Lei said involuntarily as she recognised the lady.

”Humph! Do not think I will like you just because you are complimenting me.” The girl responded unreasonably.

Hu Lei was struck speechless by that reply. She wondered if the woman had a screw loose. She was supposed to be a super clever doctor, but her attitude was like that of a child. Was this a case of arrested mental development due to the suspended animation?

After coming up with a reasonable explanation, Hu Lei decided to be magnanimous.

”If you do not like me, I might as well just go back and meet with my real friends.” Hu Lei replied. ”Let's go meet up with Kaito, Ah-Feng.”

In the end, Hu Lei could not hold on to her thought of being a magnanimous queen. She decided to be petty. Since Yuan Haoran and his girlfriend invited them over, they probably had something to tell them. So, she was the one with the power.

Jiang Yinuo was displeased. ”Where are you going?”

Hu Lei had already started to walk while pulling Zhong Feng's arm. She glanced over her shoulder.

”Do you have short-term memory problems? I just said that I am going to meet my friends.” Hu Lei replied.

”You cannot go.” Jiang Yinuo snorted in annoyance.

Actually, she did not dislike Hu Lei. It was just that she was very possessive over Yuan Haoran. Since the time they met, Yuan Haoran never paid attention to other females. He was always at her side, and he was blind to all advances.

Moreover, he never spoke positively about any woman. When he told her about Hu Lei, she felt a little disgruntled. She did not like that he had paid attention to another female, even though it was for her sake.

She also did not like his feeling of kinship towards Hu Lei.

”If you do not want us to go, you should invite us in properly. We are like vampires. We cannot cross the threshold without a proper invite.” Hu Lei teased with a smile.

In the end, Jiang Yinuo could only pout and let them in.

Hu Lei and Zhong Feng walked into the mansion and were surprised to find that the space was completely different from the weird place in Romania. The colours inside were bright but soft, and the décor was tasteful.

”I remodelled the place.” Jiang Yinuo spoke up with pride. ”The original place was ruined by old blood stains. You know how things are.”

She wanted to scare Hu Lei a little.
