250 The Difference Between A Mistress And The Woman Of The House (1/2)

Half an hour later, Lei Xinyi walked around the sunroom with all her thoughts as scrambled as the Herbs and roots in the room.

This was another sunroom with riches scattered on dirt and the thing to condemn was that such precious jewels of nature were wasted and just kept as showpieces to amuse his visitors.

But she had all the intentions to put them to use as much as she can. They were the finest of their kind and deserved to be eulogized.

The room was a Chinese herbalist dream. Every rarity and the executive rare herbs were found here, scattered like emeralds and ambers in treasure crests. She ran around in the room with her little basket collecting the herbs that she needed for the preparation of the salve.

She hummed to herself as her ears were covered with earplugs. She had found the phone completely set in her room which she didn't mind at all.

Li Yuan sure was true to his words. An honorable man, truer to his words, it was just he had this quality to make her infuriatingly mad beyond her mannerism, and right now she needed to curry his favor and there was no better way than using some sugary sweet sh*t like this.

It will be like killing two birds with a single stone: it will be compensating for her violent behavior and as well as melting the glacier before she explains the whole scenario to him.

First, she needed to sign the contract before her father made an appearance so Li Yuan will have no way to get rid of her. And once the big fish was hooked, she will show him around the sea she was going to drown him in. She inwardly snickered at her Master Plan.

She will let him be a scapegoat and deal with her father all the while he is dealing with her father, she will rip off her inheritance from her father, and then she will play them both because then she will not need either of them!

Her one-way ticket to freedom!

It was inevitable that her Master will visit Li Yuan and if he was affirmed that she was living with him, he was going to bust. Surfing through the web she had confirmed that her Master slash Father was in Europe and knowing his business there, at the least, he is going to be there till a month, if her Intel is correct.

But it didn't mean that he couldn't send a random executive to confront Li Yuan or even make a confrontation on the line. The chances were thin but there were still chances.

She wasn't putting it past him to come barging in at the moment too so she had to agile now.

And this time she wasn't taking any chances! Lei Xinyi smirked. She had all her cards set, this time she was going to play the players instead of the game.

When her Master slash father will return he was going to give her an earful for all the drama she had started so before his return, she would have to make Li Yuan clean up all her dirty business, or that Old Man of hers was seriously getting a pain in her as*.

First, she needed to recover her reputation, and then she had to gain all her assets, properties, and shares from her Master, and then she will show them that they shouldn't have poked the bear when she was being polite.

Li Yuan was a trump card she had but he was a wild card at the same time, if she didn't play him right it could all backfire.

With the pros' practiced skills she recovered the roots and rechecked her basket for all the ingredients that were required.

Su Qing was surfing the internet on the S-Shaped Lounge Leisure Recliner in the sunroom all the while munching on the snacks that the maid's Housekeeper had brought for them; Li Yuan sure was hospitable and Su Qing was sprawled in all her less-than-gracious attire as if she owned the place.

Watching her walking back, Su Qing propped herself on the seat and drawled, ”So… you have all the ingredients for your date-rape drug?”

Lei Xinyi steps halted, eyes widened and she looked at her incredulously, ”What the f*ck, Su Qing?!” she gave her most vicious glare, ”I don't need an aphrodisiac to get him in my bed!”

Su Qing stared at her for her strange logic of rage then shrugged and hollered sarcastically, ”Oh, is that why you still haven't tasted that sweet carrot, yet?”

Lei Xinyi walked out of the sunroom and scoffed in exasperation, ”That is because I don't want to! And you…you are disgusting!”
