Chapter 217: Chapter 217: They’re Already Taken!
"Mi? Mi?" Yumei called out for a long time, and seeing that Liu Mi was still in a daze, she scooped up a handful of hot spring water and gently splashed it towards her.
"Yes! What is it?" Liu Mi suddenly snapped back to reality, her entire demeanor tense, fearful that Yumei might notice something.
"What are you thinking about? You’re so engrossed," Yumei asked with a teasing smile as she gazed at Liu Mi.
"It’s nothing, just some work stuff." Liu Mi dared not admit that her mind was entirely filled with thoughts of Chen Wei.
If she were to say that, Yumei would surely misunderstand again.
Having known Yumei for so many years, Liu Mi was sure of this.
"Work stuff? Why don’t I believe that? You’re definitely thinking about Wei, aren’t you?" Yumei hit the nail on the head.
"Not at all! It really is just work stuff," Liu Mi attempted to deny again.
"You’re flustered."
"..." Seeing the smile on Yumei’s face, Liu Mi knew that any further argument was probably futile.
"Alright." She admitted openly, "I was indeed thinking about something related to him, but please, Yumei, don’t get the wrong idea, it has absolutely nothing to do with a romance!"
"I didn’t say it was that kind of matter. Why are you so nervous?" Yumei couldn’t help but laugh.
"Where am I nervous? Am I?" She said aloud, but inwardly she thought, Whose fault do you think this is?
"Yumei, who exactly is your little junior brother? I feel more and more that I can’t get a read on him," said Liu Mi, feeling that instead of speculating wildly, it would be better to directly ask Yumei.
"You want to understand him? That’s too hard," Yumei laughed. "I’ve watched him grow up since he was a child, and I wouldn’t dare say I understand him. But you only need to know one thing, he’s not a bad person."
"Not a bad person..." Liu Mi pondered this statement.
"He was able to buy JM Entertainment without your help, Yumei. Could he be the son of some wealthy and prestigious family?" Liu Mi asked further.
Yumei shook her head, "He was taken in by Master since he was little; the six of us sisters watched him grow up."
"I see..." Liu Mi felt she shouldn’t have asked this question, as it had made the atmosphere awkward. She tried to recover, "I didn’t know he had such a tragic background."
"Tragic? The six of us sisters have doted on him since we were young," Yumei disagreed with Liu Mi’s remark.
Over the years, of course, she had tried to inquire about any family Chen Wei might have left in the world, but to no avail.
The only one who knew the details, the Master who had picked up Chen Wei from the wilderness, always remained silent when it came to this matter.
Yumei couldn’t very well defy her Master to press for answers, so this matter ended without resolution.
Moreover, since Chen Wei never voluntarily talked about his biological parents, Yumei asked her five older martial sisters not to meddle anymore, to avoid causing him more psychological pressure.
"..." Liu Mi felt it was better to keep her mouth shut and not speak.
At this moment, in Chen Wei’s room.
Zhao Xinlian finally began to open her eyes, awakening from her slumber.
Her brows furrowed slightly when she saw the unfamiliar ceiling, and she quickly sat up, her entire being as alert as a startled rabbit, wary of everything around her.
Not until she saw Chen Wei sitting on the balcony with a book in hand did she strangely feel calm, even though she thought she ought to be nervous.
This was highly unusual.
Zhao Xinlian dismissed these emotions, not wanting to dwell on them too much.
"Why am I here?" she asked Chen Wei.
"You passed out from soaking too long, and I couldn’t just send you home, so I had to bring you to my room," Chen Wei answered.
"..." Zhao Xinlian peeled back the covers, preparing to leave.
But she had only lifted them halfway when a blush immediately crawled up her cheeks, rippling outward in waves. She hurriedly clutched the covers to her chest, "Why am I not wearing any clothes!"
"What an odd question, who wears clothes to soak in a hot spring?" Chen Wei snorted with laughter as he retorted.
"You saw?"
"If I said I didn’t, would you believe me?"
"It’s not like you haven’t seen before anyway!" Zhao Xinlian said defiantly.
"It’s better for you to take it for granted."
"Go to hell!" Zhao Xinlian grabbed a pillow beside her and threw it at Chen Wei.
This guy was really too irritating when he talked.
He was nothing like the Chen Wei she had known before, almost like a completely different person.
If you talked about dislike, there wasn’t that much of it, but rather, there was a tiny sense of freshness.
"Where are your clothes? I’ll go get them for you." The bathrobe was too wet to wear since it had absorbed too much water while wiping Zhao Xinlian down.
"Room 608, the room card is in the second row from the top, third basket from the right in the ladies’ changing room." This time, Zhao Xinlian didn’t put up a fight.
Though she hated to admit it, she really had no one else to rely on but him at the moment.
How ironic indeed.
The person she most wanted to distance herself from, the one everyone considered a loser, he kept rescuing her from dire situations over and over...
"Alright, wait for me." Chen Wei put the book aside and stood up.
"By the way! President Su didn’t say anything, did she?" Zhao Xinlian suddenly spoke up.
"Don’t worry, my senior is very understanding and won’t misunderstand."
As the door shut, Zhao Xinlian clenched her fist in anger and pounded it against the covers, "I’m so sorry for not being understanding!"
Though muffled by the door, her voice still reached Chen Wei’s ears without missing a single word.
Chen Wei shook his head with a smile, preparing to head back to the women’s hot spring pool.
Knowing that Su Yumei and Liu Mi were still inside, he could ask them to help retrieve Zhao Xinlian’s room key.
Chen Wei didn’t plan to barge into the women’s hot spring pool again, as it wasn’t always that one could be so lucky not to get caught, and even if caught, only by someone he knew.
Soon, he arrived at the entrance to the hot spring area and turned the corner just in time to see two men hitting on Su Yumei and Liu Mi.
Although Su Yumei and Liu Mi repeatedly refused, the two men were persistently bothersome.
Though they weren’t getting physical, it was still exasperating.
Su Yumei grabbed Liu Mi’s hand, trying to leave, but the men immediately sidestepped to block their path and suggested they shouldn’t be in such a hurry, and could go downstairs to the restaurant for a couple of drinks to get acquainted.
Just as Su Yumei found herself in a predicament, Chen Wei’s voice quietly emerged, "Gentlemen, just so you know, these ladies are already spoken for!"
Suddenly feeling a hand on his shoulder and realizing someone was interfering with their flirting, the two burly men couldn’t possibly look pleased.
Turning around with an angry face, they opened their mouths ready to curse, but the next second, whatever words they had in mind, they swallowed them back.
All because Chen Wei was only wrapped in a towel around his waist, his muscular physique enough to make anyone feel intimidated.
