Chapter 37 - Rich CEO Turned Beggar (2/2)

”I am not accepting him as my husband.”

”Who can be sure of the future?” Shi Luo sneakily slid towards the door.

”Not now. Not ever. He is nothing but a friend.''

”Yes, Yes, a friend who will activate your hormones and make your panties wet. Let's wait and see how long you can see him as a friend.”

”Shi Luo!!”

It was already past 4:00 pm when Yu Mei reached Ren Mansion after having a sumptuous lunch with Shi Luo.

Because of the heavy snowfall yesterday, the weather was cool and she didn't feel that tired after walking to the mansion.

A soft gasp escaped her lips when she saw the scene in the living room.

A huge entourage of men dressed in black was standing at the entrance. They were bodyguards and she was sure of that after looking at their postures and uniforms.

Why were they here though?

She glanced around the living room to find Jun Zixuan standing in front of the teal wooden Victorian-style sofa.

Someone was sitting there but from her angle, she could only see the woman's back.

Who is it? She thought to herself before making her way towards them.

At the sound of her approaching footsteps, the lady turned around to look at her, ”Xiao Mei…” She softly called out.

She froze. Looking into her memories, she recognized the lady as her mother-in-law, Shen Lihua.

As a mother-in-law, she was not the evil witch that they displayed in television dramas. Rather, she was pretty caring and considerate towards the previous owner.

But the girl didn't cherish it. She deliberately tricked the lady into believing that her son was not treating her well.

Although Jun Zixuan didn't love her but he didn't treat her that badly initially.

But she was not satisfied with that and deliberately ruined the relationship between the mother and son again and again.

She thought that to keep his mother's heart, Jun Zixuan will accept her.

But despite their marriage, nothing happened between them.

And her accident and coma were the last snap on the mother and son's relationship.

From what she heard from the servants, his mother stopped visiting him and talking to him after she fell into coma.

Maybe she blamed it on her son?
