Chapter 35 - Miss Yu Is Good At Cooking (2/2)

She was speechless, ”You…I am not sleeping there…I'll better go back to my room,” She quickly walked towards the door.

But his cold voice stopped her in her tracks, ”I own this place. If you don't want to make a snow house outside, then better sleep on the couch.”

”Jun Zixuan, you crazy moody man, are you on your period?” She snarled at him but unbothered by her outburst, the man removed his white T-shirt revealing his muscular chest and those rock-hard abs that had a golden sheen on them under the candle lights.

Looking at his face, she couldn't tell if he will really kick her out of the house if she didn't sleep on the couch.

She walked towards the couch before settling her body on it. The couch was very big and comfortable but for her enormous body, the space was insufficient.

She moved around a little trying to fit properly but there were some movements in her stomach, ”Hey, are you asleep?” she glanced at the man sleeping on the bed.

”Yes,” He replied without opening his eyes.

Her lips twitched, ”I… Can you cook something for me? I am very hungry.”

The man opened his eyes before looking at her blankly.

…

”Ugh…. Who drew the curtains open…?” Yu Mei rolled around in the bed as she squinted adjusting to the brightness.

Sitting on the king-sized bed, she rubbed her eyes with the back of her hand before looking at her surroundings.

Wasn't she sleeping on the couch? She scratched the back of her neck.

After having the super tasty porridge made by the master chef Jun Zixuan, she remembered dozing off on the couch. Did he carry her to the bed?

She blinked, ”No wonder he has such a nice body. He can even carry a sack like me,” She mumbled before getting off the bed.

Maybe he isn't that cold-hearted as she painted him to be or else why would he bother with her?

She decided to thank him later.

At the breakfast table:

”Master, the weather is a lot better today. Will you go to work?” Steward Gu asked, standing beside Jun Zixuan.

The man nodded while spreading butter on the bread.

”The Mayor is trying to make an appointment for one month. Shall we deny him access inside the company?”

He paused his movements, ”Fix it today, I'll meet him but keep the time short.”

”Is thirty minutes fine?”

”Ten minutes.”

The Steward was speechless. Master, he is the Mayor after all, shouldn't you give him some face?

He cleared his throat, ”I apologize for what happened yesterday. If not for an emergency, I would not have asked for a leave,” If it was not Madam's order to leave you both alone in the mansion, we all would have stayed here, he added in his thoughts.

”It was mom, wasn't it?” Jun Zixuan asked without raising his head.

Steward Gu stilled but nodded in the end, ”In fact, one of us could have stayed here to serve you but since Miss Yu is good at cooking and other household works…”
