215 Mistress (2/2)

Li Yuan snorted and turned his eyes up in mock, ”So you are telling me that you stayed in Youhan's Mansion for eight months and your interaction with him was purely PG-13?”

Lu Xinyi was already red as a tomato and was about to burst as a lone angry tear slipped her eye, she shook in anger and hissed, ”Yes! And it's none of your business!”

Li Yuan nodded his head. It really wasn't his business but he couldn't help his curiosity.

Before she regained her memories Yu Youhan and everybody assumed she was Lei Xinyi and he wouldn't really like it, if his Cousin brother had been imagining his future wife while enjoying his present fiance.

And Lu Xinyi was an innocent, untouched bud. Even when she hadn't regained her memories Li Yuan couldn't really believe that Yu Youhan wouldn't be able to figure such a transparent little creature.

He was as protective of her as he was protective of Su Qianwei, like a sister, nothing more, nothing less. Any other woman that wasn't Lei Xinyi could only disgust him, if not for anything he hated Lei Xinyi for ruining his appetite.

Seeing Lu Xinyi face turning a lighter shade of red and her breathing calming Li Yuan smirked at her, ”Little Princess, do you know Yu Youhan keeps mistresses?”

Lu Xinyi who was staring out of the window at once snapped her head to him and stared at him in shock and disbelief.

She licked her parched lips and barely croaked out, ”Mis...Mistress?”

Li Yuan smirk widened. she really was still innocent and was harbouring feelings for his cousin. Interesting...

He wasn't ruining anything for Yu Youhan, he was just making a confession easy for his cousin. Yu Youhan was a tough man who had seen a lot of hardships and was carrying the weight of the entire family on his shoulders.

He was the eldest of them all and Li Yuan never lost respect for him in all these years. He was practically a glue holding their volatile family together by burning in all the flames that erupted by the vaporization of emotions.

Yu Youhan was more than a brother to him, he was his saviour. Years ago when they were kidnapped in their teenage years and he had passed out for the whole time. He was injured to the point that he was unconscious of his surrounding.

He was bleeding from the cuts and injuries, their captors had left him to die because one heir or two, they just wanted the exile to be lifted.

In the captivity of the Lei's in the middle of the ocean, he was treated by YuYouhan. He was no doctor, so the stitches he made were poor but they held him up. He kept forcing liquids in his mouth.

In his mild-conscious sate he had heard the voices of a girl, he didn't know what transpired to her but Yu Youahn refused to talk about it and there was no girl on the deck.

All he knew was that the girl was a Lei and was naive and had helped them with food and first Aid and...that she resembled Lei Xinyi.

Yu Youhan was attached to the girl who was probably resting in the beds of the ocean. No body was recovered even with the search parties sent. Li Yuan could feel his heart sinking at the thought, there was a possibility that...it was Lei Xinyi?

But whatever it was the girl death changed Yu Youhan forever and he couldn't let this little chipmunk princess do the same to his beloved cousin!

He was a legendary man but he was...self-destructive and complicated. Lu Xinyi was too delicate for his rough hands. Either she would end up broken or he would end up torn.

And he by no means wanted that for his cousin so Lu Xinyi would have to go look for a Groom some elsewhere.

Li Yuan eyes glinted evilly, he clicked his tongue and tsked, as if mocking grief, ”Mistresses not mistress. Meaning more than one at a time.”

Indefinitely speaking, there was nothing in it for him and he wasn't some psycho who thought it was mandatory that the world was dying of depression just because he was sad.

He genuinely only wanted to see these array of emotions passing on the Foolish princess face and to save his cousin from this affection sucking leech.

He could not really place it why but irritating her gave him the feeling that he was having satisfactory revenge from Lei Xinyi.

He couldn't hurt Lei Xinyi even if she was holding a revolver on his head but it gave him unexplainable satisfaction to see Lu Xinyi being this puzzled and shocked as if she was betrayed.

There was hardly a chance that Yu Youhan was courting this noisy princess here, but if he was Li Yuan sure wasn't liking the impact his words were going to cause.

But he could use some risking thrill in life about now...
