Chapter 409 - Tea (2/2)

Yu Mei's grip on the teacup handle tightened and Jun Zixuan's eyes narrowed briefly.

Han Jian Yu tilted his head to the side as he glanced at the fox from the corner of his eyes, thinking back to the times when she used to be around him, living at his place. The way she used to cause chaos and how she would only eat the food that he cooked, sitting on the chair elegantly.

He closed his eyes and his lips pinched together.

All their guards were standing rooted to their places, without making any movement given that Yu Mei was still with Han Sheng at the moment.

But compared to Han Jian Yu's expressionless face, Jun Zixuan's disturbed expressions were apparent and it had Han Sheng speak, ''President Jun also seems to have some sort of attachment with this animal.''

'Smash'

”You... Ah...'' Han Sheng was caught off guard when a sharp shard was pressed against his neck.

When he was focused on Jun Zixuan, Yu Mei broke the teacup. When the man was serving her the tea, Jun Zixuan and her had briefly exchanged glances and he had pointed his eyes towards the cup.

While waiting for a proper opportunity, Yu Mei finally found it when she spotted the tray in the man's hand. So, the moment Han Sheng talked to Jun Zixuan, she took advantage of the chance to smash the cup before she placed a shard against his neck, catching him off guard.

Yu Mei pressed it harder and blood oozed out of his neck while the man winced, all of his guards were on alert but nobody dared to move when they saw that Han Sheng was taken down.

However, before Yu Mei could let out a sigh of relief, her expressions changed when the man who was wincing and writhing in pain, started laughing all of a sudden, slow at first but the sound of it turned maniacal with each passing second before he squinted and raised his hand to wipe the teardrop from the corner of his eyes, ''You want to kill me? Go ahead,'' Han Sheng said casually, ''I will take your pet together with me.''

Jun Zixuan and Han Jian Yu were both somewhat taken aback by his response and so was Yu Mei.

Did he lose his mind? He would rather die than release Mia? Yu Mei couldn't help but think if it was a way to scare her but then given how unpredictable this man has been till this point, she did not know if she could take his words seriously.

”You just had to try me....'' Han Sheng whispered and just as Yu Mei saw the knife being pointed at Mia, she stepped back from the man quickly.
