Chapter 261 - Father And Mother-in-law (1/2)

”The last time we met, I could not have guessed that the campus belle of Imperial University is in fact the CEO of Rosette. Nice to meet you, President Leanne,” She extended her hand towards her, ”I am Han Jingyi.”

Her expressions faltered slightly. Han? Yu Mei blankly stared at her for a few moments before shaking her hand, ”Miss Han, I was initially surprised to see you here,” More surprised at the lack of her cakey makeup, high heels, and that traditionally elegant long dress.

”Huh? To be honest, I am very close to Grandma,” Han Jingyi glanced at the old lady sitting on the couch before looking back at Yu Mei, ''Have you known it all this time?”

”Know what?” Yu Mei asked knowingly. She noticed how this woman was showing off her close relations with the Jun Family in front of her.

”That… Zixuan is the CEO of Eminence?” Han Jingyi could feel her nerves shaking just at the mention of it. The super-hot fiancé whom she thought is an useless trash is not just the most handsome man she has ever seen. He is now the most powerful man she could ever come across.

”Of course, I knew,” Yu Mei rolled her eyes, ”My baby never hides anything from me,” With a not so gentle stab on Han Jingyi's heart, Yu Mei walked upstairs sparing one glance in the direction of the fuming grandma with a super cool bob haircut.

Han Jingyi's face darkened slightly.

”Jingyi, come here. You don't need to approach such mannerless wild people,” Old Madam Jun's voice snapped her out of her reverie.

Han Jingyi schooled her expressions before walking back to her.

While Yu Mei was on her way to her room, she bumped into Jun Zishen who was seemingly pacing in front of the door.

”Father?” She marveled at how easily it slipped off her mouth. Maybe she was obsessed with the idea of sharing things with Jun Zixuan.

Jun Zishen raised his head to look at her. His eyes widened slightly at the way she addressed him. Initially, he thought she was joking before but the girl now looks very serious about it. Shaking his head, he opened his mouth to speak, ”There is something I want to discuss with you.”

Yu Mei nodded, ”Sure.”

”Let's talk in my study.”

Yu Mei followed after him as he took her towards the elevator in the manor. She never really looked around this place but given its extravagance, she was bound to miss a few things here and there.

And when the door opened, she was greeted by the sight of huge bookshelves and the vast expanse of the library. Towards the ceiling, there was another hanging bookshelf that had books in it that resembled ancient books. It must be the Royal Family archives. She concluded.

Even though the Royal Family was on its decline in the current days but they still had the blue blood running in their veins which was not something to be underestimated.

There was a time when the whole Amaranthine was solely dominated by the power of the Royal Family. But there was a shift in the balance of power when her brother took over the throne of the President of the country ten years ago.

He did not show his face to the public but the people in power were all aware of almost everything about him, except for the fact that he had a younger sister. Due to him being very young at that time, he was not taken seriously by anyone but over the course of time, he was the one dominating the country while the royal family kept losing their influence.
