Chapter 9 - Manipulative Bitch (1/2)

”Divorce?” He enunciated the word as he glanced at her, his piercing stare could make a person's heart turn cold.

”What? Do you love me that much that you can't bear to part ways with me?” She batted her eyelashes at him but it did not look like acting coy at all.

If it was her previous looks, any man would have been turned on in an instant but unfortunately, right now, she looked like an enormous rice ball.

Her cheeks were bulging to the point that her eyes look extremely small.

The man did not speak anything but there was raging hostility in his eyes, his terrifying aura was enough to prove how much he loathed the girl in front of him.

Steward Gu was on the verge of begging her to stop provoking him.

Yu Mei smiled, a cold light flashed through her eyes. Was he trying to scare her? Unfortunately, she was not Yu Mei Zhen.

”Mr. J..cough..cough...Young Master, you know the reason behind the marriage very well,” she sighed in relief inwardly, she almost blurted out his real name, which Yu Mei Zhen was not aware of. It would have been a blunder.

Calling him Master would make her seem like his servant and it was degrading for her. She would never call someone her master.

Since their marital relationship was not that amicable, she could not call him 'hubby' or 'darling'.

So, she opted for 'Young Master', it was polite and distant and it did not make her look like his mistress or servant.

She continued, ”So, as long as your mother wants, we can pretend to be married while you should try to change her mind about our marriage.”

The man looked into her eyes, they seemed to be shining like the brightest stars, there was a different kind of clarity in them which he had never noticed before.

”How so?” The man asked.

”You must be muddleheaded to not understand the meaning when I explained everything so clearly.”

Muddleheaded? Is Miss Yu taking drugs? If not, how did she dare to commit a blasphemy as using such words for Master?
