Dear Young Master Spare Me Please? - 238 Conflicted Feelings

“isn’t this the infamous wife of cousin zijian?” a high pitched voice was heard from a short distance the moment han meixiu went out of the room.

she stopped and lazily looked at the woman probably a bit older than her.

“you’re just waking up now? i never imagined he’s married to a lazy woman. what a pity!” the unknown person continued her one sided speech with a face full of disgust and ridicule.

seeing that the other person was seemingly speechless, she thought she was right scolding han meixiu. she’s really timid.

the woman smiled inwardly. she was just scolded for coming late to the main hall and seeing there’s a person who was later than her, she couldn’t control herself to say a few words. it was a way to vent out her sentiments.

in normal circumstances, han meixiu would just let it pass as it was clearly a person provoking her with non sense words. she’s used to this kind of treatment back in the han family’s mansion. the best way to make her life peaceful was to ignore them.

but, it’s different this time.

first, she just woken up. didn’t they say not to provoke people who just woke up?

second, liu zijian wasn’t around when she woke up. she was more or less used to see him around the moment she opened her eyes. asking if she’s okay, or if she needs anything.

third, she’s hungry. she’s a normal person. when she’s hungry, her patience is very limited.

turning around to face the other person with a smug face, han meixiu raised her eyebrows for split second before she smiled sweetly.

“i am lazy, so what? i can afford it anyway. are you perhaps feeling envious?”

“what?! envious? hah! how would i feel envious of someone from a family that was already almost erased in society?” halfly shocked, when the woman responded. she never thought han meixiu would retaliate shamelessly. she was so well behaved yesterday.

was it just a pretense? was liu zijian deceived? the more she thought about it, the more she felt agitated.

who in the whole q city didn’t wish to be in han meixiu’s shoes after the incident with the late young master chen?

no matter which angle the people look, han meixiu was someone who was painted with good words. she was never a show off nor an overbearing person. she was quiet and reserved.

although they said she was not sociable, she wasn’t totally snobby.

her school records might not have been the best but she never failed a subject no matter who the professor was.

people even believed that if she really studied like a normal student, she would probably be on top.

thus, she was highly regarded. one of the reasons why she wanted to attend this new year’s celebration was to see the woman liu zijian married.

is she really worth to be hyped? last night she secretly observed and went with the flow of her relatives to ask han meixiu several questions.

but after each question, her behavior didn’t change at all. it was as if she wasn’t affected with too much attention she was receiving.

it actually irked her that time. but since most of her cousins didn’t mind, she let it go.

however, seeing the woman again after being scolded and she couldn’t vent out to anyone, her displeased emotions from last night resurfaced.

there was no one around as most of the people were gathered in the main hall.

thus her courage became bigger. she found a target to receive her bottled up anger.

one major flaw of han meixiu according to what she read was the family she belonged to, han family. they were almost wiped out because of the series of crimes they committed.

thus, she could definitely use this fact to unmasked the woman in front of her.

unfortunately, han meixiu didn’t care about it. she just chuckled and turned around to leave.

after recovering for a few seconds as she didn’t expect the action of the other person, she immediately reached out her hand to stop han meixiu.

since it was an abrupt action, han meixiu wasn’t prepared and lost her balance.

both women actually felt their soul left their body.

a certain someone who saw what happened in a distance moved swiftly to support his wife. liu zijian glared menacingly to the person responsible. “yu yao!”

“cousin….i…” the woman couldn’t continue her words.

liu zijian wasn’t a friendly person to begin with, and seeing his murderous gaze made her shiver in fright.

“what’s the commotion?” grandma liu walked towards the three people. she heard liu zijian’s roar and wasn’t pleased by it. she thought that these two brats from that yi min, didn’t really put her on their eyes.

liu zijian didn’t answer as he observed the woman in his embrace. she was slightly shaking and her eyes were moistened.

“grandma liu!” liu yu yao exclaimed. she found a savior in her current situation. everyone in the family knew the sour relationship of grandma liu and the current family of liu family’s head.

grandma liu would clearly hear out her explanation.

after arriving, grandma liu saw that liu zijian was enclosing han meixiu.

“my wife almost fell down. if i wasn’t fast enough…” liu zijian answered while gritting his teeth.

“yu yao! was the scolding earlier not enough? while are still stirring trouble?” grandma liu coldly questioned liu yu yao who felt she was extremely pitiful. she just wanted to stop han meixiu to say more words. she never expected the other person to lose footing. it was never her intention to hurt her.

“i’m..okay..” in a soft voice, han meixiu said. she was really scared. not for herself but for the twins she’s carrying. when she lost her balance by the sudden pulling of lu yu yao, she almost fainted out of fright.

after she felt the comfortable embrace of liu zijian, she wanted to cry out of relief.

“meixiu, tell them. i never wanted to hurt you. i just want to talk to you.” liu yu yao said.her tone of voice already changed. she was almost pleading.

“you’re way of talking is really special.” han meixiu answered before she turned to the old woman. “grandma liu, i’m sorry i woke up late.”

“you’re pregnant, it’s understandable. if you’re not comfortable walking towards the dining area, just ask someone to deliver the food in your room.” grandma liu answered in a plain voice.

if han meixiu didn’t spend some time with her the previous night, she would have thought that grandma liu didn’t like her.

“her food had been prepared grandma.” liu zijian answered. it was the reason why he was on his way to wake her up.

“then go now.” grandma liu instructed. the two then started to walk away.

“yu yao, remember that there are people whom you could provoke. han meixiu is not one of them. no matter how big your courage is, never start a fight with her. you might lose your life without even realizing why.” grandma liu sternly said before she left.

liu yu yao was left dumbfounded.

‘cousin zijian is really that scary?’

he could harm his own blood for the sake of a woman? but thinking about his reaction earlier, it might really happen.

after the new year celebration, both han meixiu and liu zijian stayed in liu family’s house. in about two weeks time is madam liu’s birthday.

the two decided to return to k country after madam liu’s birthday.

for the meantime, liu zijian managed the business properties in q city as han meixiu was being accompanied by madam liu. he didn’t need to worry.

both madam liu and han meixiu was taking a rest in the living room. some light snacks were half eaten on the coffee table.

madam liu has a conflicted feeling towards grandma liu. before they left old liu’s manor, the old woman actually hugged her daughter in law. it was a bizarre sight. she never imagined that the two developed a close relationship in a short amount of time.

madam liu wanted to ask han meixiu when did they first meet but there was simply not much time the past days. but now, she could probably ask.

“meixiu dear, did you meet grandma liu in the past?”

“she was introduced to me by my grandmother zhang. though i don’t have a clear memory of it. is there something wrong mommy yi?”

madam liu shook her head. “nothing, really. it’s just that she’s not fond of us. but seeing that she treated you warmly, i feel a bit confused. i was worried that she might actually insult you as shes good at it.”

“grandma liu?” han meixiu was also curious why there seemed to be bad blood between them. now is probably her chance to find out.

“en. as you see, i am not from a prominent family like liu’s. thus becoming the wife of the young master liu back then wasn’t really easy. and grandma liu was against our marriage. she didn’t stop even after we securely tied our union. she sent several women to seduce my husband.” madam liu sighed.

back then, she was drinking tons and tons of vinegar almost every single day.

han meixiu quietly listened. as liu zijian’s wife, she probably didn’t fully understand the meaning of ‘jealousy’ but she could at least grasp the situation of her mommy yi that time.

“grandma liu wanted someone else to marry the young master liu. several of our misunderstandings in the past were because of her. i promised myself, if one day, i’ll become a mother in law, i would never make my daughter in law suffer the same way that i did. it’s tiresome to fight the family of your husband. plus the fact that i thought my feelings were only one sided and he married me to rebel against his step mother, i felt extremely alone. i never imagined that marrying him would give me more stress than courting him.” madam liu continued.

“meixiu dear, let mommy yi give you an advice about possible flies that will roam around your husband. never show mercy. liu zijian is already changing. he’s becoming more and more approachable. if there might be a time that a fly would hover around him, kill it in one go! the faster the better. it will save you enormous energy.”

han meixiu nodded even though she didn’t fully understand what her mommy yi was talking about.

“i’ll remember.”

“good. you can also tell me if there’s any, i can definitely help you.” madam liu smiled as if she’s excited to do some ‘cleaning’ if ever a situation will arise one day.

in a certain leader’s office, zhang huiling was blankly looking at the two things she received from her daughter.

she felt conflicted.

first was the piece of paper connected to the death of her parents. it gave answers to some of her questions but raised another set of questions. it seemed that she needed more time to investigate their deaths.

the second one was a bit unexpected. why did her daughter ask about han mingxia?

after pondering for a while, she called bo lin to check if there’s a request specifically for 92.

“leader, first young master liu requested her service for quite some time.”

“liu zilong?”

“yes.” bo lin answered.

after dismissing bo lin, zhang huiling fell into deep thinking again.

just what did han mingxia do in that event?
