Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
As soon as i Mu ca downstairs, she heard her father’s words and subconsciously looked at Zhang Jiao. “Dad, what were you just talking about?”
Zhang Jiao looked at i Mu expressionlessly and smiled ambiguously. “Your father was just saying that you will attend the gathering for the Zhou family this weekend with .”
i Mu paused for a mont but quickly regained her composure and smiled gracefully. “Sure, Mr. Zhang, I’ll be in your care then.”
She agreed readily, and Zhang Jiao’s expression finally improved sowhat. However, when he looked at i Shu’s calm and indifferent face, his emotions were still hard to settle.
A fire raged within his chest, demanding that he possess this woman. It was as if she naturally belonged to him, and whenever he saw her, his hands itched uncontrollably, wanting to grab her by the neck and render her powerless in his grasp.
“Mr. Zhang, let’s go to the dining room,” i Yun’s words interrupted his reverie.
Zhang Jiao bead, “Sure, it’s my honor to be invited by Mr. i, and having Miss i Mu accompany is truly a privilege.”
i Mu didn’t know Zhang Jiao before, but she was aware that i Shu was right there, yet Zhang Jiao treated her as if she were invisible, only talking to her. This made i Mu couldn’t help but puff out her chest proudly as she walked past i Shu.
i Shu coldly watched her follow Zhang Jiao’s steps and leave. Slowly, a faint smile appeared on her lips.
This was just what i Mu had asked for.
Perhaps, apart from those close to Zhang Jiao, only she knew that he had an incurable hidden illness that prevented him from being intimate with won.
Consequently, he developed a psychological distortion, leading him to derive imnse pleasure from torturing his won with cruel thods.
i Mu’s habit of acting like a peacock when she saw a man made her jump into a fire pit without knowing anything about it.
But that was just perfect; let i Mu taste the pain she had inflicted on i Shu in her previous life.
“Sister, why are you daydreaming again? Let’s go eat.”
i Yan and i Jing ca downstairs as well and called out to her.
i Yan saw her standing there and reached out to hold her hand.
i Shu’s heart ward, and she gently held i Yan’s hand. “Yanyan is such a good boy today. Let’s go and have dinner.”
i Yan’s face lit up with joy and, taking the opportunity, he asked, “Sister, since I’ve been so good, can 1 play gas after finishing my howork? Can I skip the extra exercises today?”
“Sure.” i Shu readily agreed.
i Jing, who was nearby, was astonished, and his eyeballs almost popped out.
How co this woman suddenly beca so easygoing?
Feeling a bit excited, i Jing cleared his throat and said, “Since I helped you today, can’t you be generous enough to let play gas and relax a bit?”
“Nope.” i Shu’s face remained stern, decisively quashing i Jing’s thoughts of slacking off.
i Jing pouted and turned into a sulky bun-faced kid. “Different treatnt, huh? Fine, I’ll do the exercises!”
After saying that, without waiting for i Shu to say anything else, he snorted coldly and went ahead to the dining room.
i Yan snickered, holding i Shu’s hand tightly and leading her to sit down. He warmly poured a glass of juice for her. “Sister, have this!”
“Yanyan is such a good boy!” i Shu rewarded him by patting his head.
i Mu felt a surge of hatred, gnashing her teeth.
This brat always acted like a lord in front of her, but why did i Shu force him to study every day and never let him play, yet they still had such a good relationship?
She had never even had juice personally poured by i Yan!
“Yanyan, 1 also want a glass of juice.” i Mu put down her chopsticks and said to him with a gentle smile.
i Yan pouted and frowned disapprovingly, “Can’t you do it yourself?”
She was just bullying his sister earlier, and now she wanted him to pour her juice. Did she treat both him and his sister as servants?
i Mu’s face turned a bit unpleasant when she was rejected by a little child in front of everyone. Subconsciously, she looked at Zhang Jiao, afraid of leaving a bad impression on him.
Although she had no good feelings towards Zhang Jiao and had no intention of developing a relationship with him, this was still in front of i Shu, and she had to show i Shu the stark difference between them!
“I’ll pour the juice for Miss i,” Zhang Jiao smiled and helped defuse the situation.
i Mu’s heart leaped with gratitude, “Thank you, Mr. Zhang. You are a guest; how can I let you do it personally?”
“Serving a lady is what a gentleman should do,” Zhang Jiao politely smiled.
i Mu’s face turned slightly red.
Although this man’s appearance was just average, he had a sweet mouth.
i Shu noticed this scene and deliberately said with a sour tone, “Mr. Zhang is indeed very courteous to ladies. 1 believe my sister will have a pleasant ti with him this weekend.”
Zhang Jiao raised an eyebrow at her, knowing that she said this deliberately, so he didn’t respond.
However, i Mu thought that i Shu was jealous, envious that she was invited by a man to attend a banquet over the weekend, and she proudly held her head up high, feeling elated, “Of course! I look forward to spending a delightful weekend with Mr. Zhang.. Sister, you should stay ho and take good care of our two brothers’ studies!”
