Chapter 379 - Spitting Fire (2/2)

As Yu Mei walked towards her, Mia wrapped her arms around her neck before placing her head on her shoulder, ''I am tired,'' she whispered.

Since both the women were almost same in height and figure, one would not be able to guess their age and Yu Mei felt like she was the elder sister her. But then, it was not the time to think about all this.

''What's wrong? Why are you tired?” She stroked her back.

''I am just tired…'' Mia mumbled.

Jun Zixuan glanced at Steward Gu and the later bowed before leaving the place.

Sensing the disappearance of the extra presence, Mia shifted to her fox form before she disappeared in thin air.

Jun Zixuan narrowed his eyes as he looked around.

Yu Mei blinked.

'I will be cultivating. You can think like I don't exist,' came the voice from her mind and after that it was all silent.

She turned around to look at Jun Zixuan, ''She is in my body,'' She said when she noticed his gaze looking for Mia.

Jun Zixuan frowned but he did not say anything.

The next few days were peaceful but in what sense, it was not clear. Either it was the calm before a storm or the peace after a storm.

And Yu Mei forced herself to believe that it was the latter given the way. A lot of things had happened lately so it had to be the latter. Or that's what she would like to believe.

Since that night, she hadn't heard from Mia and lately, her brother had gotten busy with his work so they did not see him anymore.

On this particular day, Jun Zixuan and Yu Mei were having breakfast when all of a sudden, she felt some fluctuations in her body. It was a feeling she was familiar with even though she had not felt it for a long time.

She looked around making sure that there were no servants around and sure enough, soon Mia appeared on Jun Zixuan's shoulder, ''Done playing hide and seek?” He narrowed his eyes.

And she rolled her eyes before jumping to the chair next to Yu Mei.

Yu Mei glanced at her in confusion, ''Are you fine?” She asked.

''What happened to me?'' Mia did not revert back to her human self.

''You…'' Yu Mei was abit speechless, ''Why are you like this?”

''I am embracing my real self. What's wrong with that?”

''Uh… You.. Aren't you a human, taking after your father? That's your real self as well,'' Yu Mei said a bit cautiously.

Mia replied, ''I am this for now. Any problem?” She grabbed the glass of juice beside Yu Mei's plate before drinking it.

Yu Mei glanced at Jun Zixuan. Why did it seem like Mia was spitting fire for absolutely no reason?

It reminded her of the days when she just discovered Mia.. Back then, she used to be like this. Always grumpy
