Chapter 101
"Why don't you eat? Didn't you say you wanted to eat buns in the morning?"
"I mean, I want to eat crispy buns, the kind with skin that can be peeled off layer by layer. How can I eat this bun with skin as thick as rice cake?"
"If you don't finish this bun this morning, I will peel off your skin layer by layer."
Feng Xiaosai turned his head away, trying hard to suppress the laughter that was about to burst out. Yueming gave him a warning look, then turned her gaze back to Yunkai, saying unhappily, "I just want to have a bun, what's wrong with that? I didn't ask you to go to Shizipo to buy it for me, so why do you act like I'm looking for trouble?"
Yun Kai raised his head from the newspaper he was buried in and threatened calmly, "Just wait, I'm going to burn your copy of Water Margin."
De Berry came in to report that Miss Zhong had arrived. Yun Kai put away the newspaper, stood up, and said to Yue Ming, "Since Miss Zhong is here to accompany you, I will go to the company first. You should finish your meal quickly and go to class."
Yueming put down her chopsticks and hurriedly called out to him, "Won't you give me a goodbye kiss?"
"You clingy girl!" Yun Kai's tense face that he had used to scare her into eating breakfast could no longer hold back. After scolding her with a smile, he bent down, held Yueming's little face, and kissed her hard.
Yueming struggled to get out and wiped her lips with the back of her hand: "What a rough man, no mercy at all, my skin has been ripped open by your kisses."
Yun Kai touched her curly head, which she had permed together with Song Wanzhi on a whim: "Be good and stay home. I will come back at noon to have lunch with you."
As soon as Yunkai left, Yueming immediately pushed the plate away, walked into the living room, and sat down on the sofa with a dull look on her face.
Knowing that her mind was never on the class, Zhong Luoyu didn't rush her as she curled up on the sofa in a daze as soon as Young Master Yun left. She was flipping through the French poetry book she brought with her.
The phone rang, and before the servants could react, Miss Yue jumped up to answer it. After whispering for a while, she looked at Zhong Luoyu with sparkling eyes: "Miss Zhong, are we friends?"
Zhong Luoyu... No, no, no, I'm out of my league! Are you saying this out of ulterior motive? Also, can you please stop smiling like that? When you smile like that, I feel like I'm going to suffer.
Yun Kai was discussing the new spinning mill with Su Shiyue when the phone on Su Shiyue's desk rang. He picked it up and was initially puzzled by the caller's name, but the more he listened, the more amused he became. After hanging up, he beamed at Yun Kai, who was reading documents at his desk, and said, "Yun Er, Yun Er, little A Yue went to see Alia perform a striptease!"
Young Master Yun...if we can't keep him under control any longer, he'll start rebelling!
Yun Kai couldn't understand why Yue Ming was so obsessed with striptease. After watching men dance, she was not satisfied and now she was attracted to women. Just when he was about to roll up his sleeves and go to Alia's mansion to drag Yue Ming back home, the phone on Su Shiyue's desk rang again.
Luo Er's furious roar came from the microphone: "Lao Su, quickly ask Yun Er to save her, Xiao A Yue is going to kill someone."
The two hurried to Khaosan Road and met Luo Er, who came to save the beauty at the gate of the mansion.
Luo Er said angrily, "Yun Er, I'm telling you, you can't pamper little A Yue this time. She actually brought a bunch of thugs to cause trouble."
"You're talking nonsense! I didn't bring any of my men with me. How could she have any thugs..." He suddenly realized and gritted his teeth, "An Kejian."
The three of them stepped into the mansion, each with a different focus. Su Shiyue saw Zhong Luoyu sitting steadily on the sofa, holding a cigar in one hand and a glass of red wine in the other, watching with great interest.
Yunkai saw Yueming, dressed in men's clothing, with her messy curly hair tied into two pigtails. She looked cute, but her movements were a bit dangerous.
Luo Er saw his new love, Alia, kneeling helplessly at Yueming's feet, the little witch even trying to burn her face with a cigar. He gasped and rushed forward, lifting Alia up and holding her in his arms. Alia, frightened to the point of losing her mind by Miss Yue, immediately buried her head in his arms and cried bitterly when she saw Luo Er arrive.
Amidst Aria's mournful cries, Luo Er looked at Yun Kai with a blaming look, questioning him with his eyes, "Do you care? Do you care?"
Yunkai pretended not to notice. Yueming would be the legitimate second young mistress of the Yunxiang Mansion in the future. What was wrong with beating up a prostitute? He could afford to pay the compensation if she was beaten to death, so why make such a fuss? It wasn't that he was protecting her; he knew Yueming's temper best. She was just a tough talker. Alia must have pissed her off to get her to take action. She deserved the beating.
Yueming pinched the cigar between his thumb and index finger and took a drag. After lazily blowing out the smoke ring, he looked at Yunkai expressionlessly: "Aren't you going to the company? What are you doing here? Or do you guys usually work here?" After saying this, without waiting for Young Master Yun to speak, he glanced around fiercely: "Who tipped off?"
No one agreed. Yueming looked at Alia, who was crying her heart out in the arms of Mr. Luo, and sneered, "How shameless!" She pulled a handful of pounds from her suit pocket and threw them into the air, sending the bills scattering like flowers. She gestured to the people An Kejian had assigned to her, "I've already paid for it. Start smashing!"
At her command, the first to be struck was the statue of Venus in the corner. One blow from the hammer sent Venus's head tumbling across the hall, and the second blow tore her plump body apart. Alia screamed in fear at the loud noise, and the servant kneeling in front of the sofa tried to stand up to stop her, but was kicked to the ground.
The entire hall was a scene of chaos, with ghosts howling and wolves howling. Yun Kai could no longer play dumb. But he was An Kejian's man, and he couldn't stop them. He could only curse at Yue Ming, who was sitting steadily, "What are you doing? Stop it now!"
Yueming was smoking a cigar by herself, ignoring him. Yunkai was irritated by her attitude and snatched the cigar away and threw it to the ground: "What are you smoking? You're getting itchy when I can't keep an eye on you."
The cigar fell onto the carpet, and the sparks left several black marks on the fine Persian rug. His fall infuriated Yueming, who leaped to her feet. Although she was a significant height difference from Yunkai, her arrogance was intensified. "You're really capable of getting angry with me over a bitch!"
Yun Kai's face was filled with anger. "I don't understand what you're making such a fuss about. What are you doing? Are you just bored?"
Yueming sneered, "Isn't it because I'm bored at home every day? You go to the company during the day and dance around at night. How busy are you?"
Yunkai realized belatedly that he was involved. What a huge injustice! The man belonged to Luo Erbao, and he was just a guest. He couldn't bear the blame.
Yunkai believed he had done nothing wrong to Yueming and had a clear conscience, but he was reluctant to expose Luo Er's past in front of Yueming. Holding back his anger, he said to Yueming, "Let's talk about it when we get home." Then he went to hold Yueming's hand.
Yueming waved away his outstretched hand and shouted angrily: "What home are you going back to? Is that your home? You come here for no reason. Do you still remember that you have a home? What kind of home is that? That's where you sleep. Ah Shun, book a plane ticket for me. I want to go back to Kunming. I want to go home, back to my own home." As soon as she finished speaking, tears started streaming down her face.
Seeing the veins on Yunkai's neck and Yueming crying, Luo Er finally came to his senses. He had thought that little Ayue was just looking for trouble, but it turned out that she had misunderstood Yun Er's bad luck in coming to Alia's house. He smiled and helped Yunkai out, saying, "Little Ayue, you're really jealous. Yun Er is a very honest person! He came with us just to have a drink and watch the singing and dancing." Then he said to Alia in his arms, "Go apologize to Miss Yue, and let's put this matter to rest."
Alia knelt before Miss Yue with a blank expression and trembling body: "I didn't serve you well today and made you unhappy. Please forgive me."
Luo Er clapped his hands and said with a smile, "Alright, alright, Alia has apologized to you, so for my sake, let's just forget about today's incident, okay?"
Yueming stared at Alia kneeling on the ground without saying a word. After a long while, he chuckled dejectedly, "It's over, it's over!"
Luo Er was overjoyed to hear Yue Ming give in. After helping Alia up, he said to Yun Kai, "Okay, stop standing there like an idiot. Hurry and take little A Yue home!"
Before Yunkai could react, Yueming turned around and headed for the door first. Seeing Yunkai's face turn ashen, Luo Er sighed and patted his shoulder, saying, "Your little Ah Yue is easy to coax. Just go back and coax her and she'll be fine."
Yunkai chased Yueming out the door, but Yueming was nowhere to be seen. He felt anxious and angry. He told the driver to speed home, only to see two cars parked outside. The people who had followed Yueming to the riot were standing by them smoking. His heart, which had been weighing on him all the way, finally settled down. He glanced at the leader and cursed him inwardly. "Why don't you just go back to An Kejian and wait outside his house for a reward?"
After entering the house, he asked Miss DeBerry if she had returned. DeBerry hesitated and said, "She just returned and went upstairs as soon as she came back. Master, those people outside..."
Yunkai was impatient to hear her hesitate, so he quickly ran up the stairs, taking the stairs one step at a time. Yueming's door was closed. He went up to it, knocked on it, and shouted, "Yueming, open the door."
No one answered. He put his ear to the door and heard only faint noises from inside. He turned the door lock and found that Yueming had locked it from the inside.
It's not over yet, is it? Yunkai was instantly enraged, yelling for Feng Xiaosai to get the key and open the door. Her anger was ridiculous and inexplicable. What had he done? Didn't he sleep at home every day? If he wanted to party every night, why did he bring her to Bangkok?
Feng Xiaosai trotted upstairs with his key in hand. He inserted the key into the lock and heard the click of it unlocking. Yunkai impatiently pushed him away. He flung open the door, put his hands on his hips, and questioned Yueming, "Lan Yueming, what's wrong with you today... Why are you packing your clothes?"
Yueming ignored him and continued to take clothes out of the closet and throw them into the suitcase on the bed.
Yun Kai went over and grabbed her wrist, angrily saying, "I'm asking you a question. Where are you going with your clothes?"
Yueming threw the clothes in her hand to the ground and shouted at him, "Are you deaf? I just said I want to go back to my own home. We are done, it's over."
Feng Xiaosai and De Baili stood at the door and looked at each other. Everything was fine during breakfast, so how could it have turned out so badly in such a short time?
Seeing the two standing at the door in a daze, Yun Kai's anger grew even more intense. He shouted at them, "Get out!" and the two of them ran away in a hurry.
Yun Kai took a deep breath to suppress the anger surging within him, and said softly, "I just said a few words to you, and you're already so embarrassed? Okay, okay, it's all my fault. I shouldn't have said that to you in front of so many people. I was also concerned about Luo Er's reputation. Alia is his dearest love now, and you caused such a scene today, and he's embarrassed. Besides, he made Alia kneel down and apologize to you."
Yueming looked up at him and said, "Do you know why I am so angry today?"
Yun Kai chuckled: "Aren't you just jealous and thinking that there's something going on between Alia and me? Silly child, you're really being jealous for no reason."
Yueming shook his head: "I don't believe there is anything between you and Alia."
Yun Kai asked doubtfully, "Then why are you so angry? What else could possibly be so irritating?"
The sunlight outside the window shone through the treetops onto the bed. The open suitcase was filled with clothes and skirts, and the scattered light fell on it. When the wind blew, the flowers on the dresses swayed.
Yueming stared at the swaying fragments of light and chuckled softly, "Last time, Ti Ling and I went to see a striptease. Although we didn't go there specifically, I still feel that I was wrong. I'm a fiancée and I love you so much, how could I go to that kind of brothel? So even if you hit me or scold me, I don't complain. I just want to admit my mistake and calm you down. But you, you keep saying you love me and keep saying those places are bad, so why did you go there? Do you think that not sleeping with Alia doesn't count as betraying me? Why do you have two sets of standards for me?"
Yun Kai explained, "Luo Er and the others like to go wherever they want to discuss things. I just follow the local customs and don't take the initiative to go."
Her wrist was a little painful after being held up for a long time by him. Yueming moved Yunkai's fingers, but they tightened even more, refusing to let her break free.
"I know why you brought me to Bangkok. You always felt that I was not weaned, and that you were the only one I could rely on after I left my father and my senior brother. I understand, and I rely on you wholeheartedly. If you don't let me go out, I won't go out. If you don't let me play with Ti Ling, I will try to see her as little as possible. I locked myself in this house and waited for you to come back. At first, I didn't think there was anything wrong. But gradually, when I thought about living like this for the rest of my life after marrying you, I felt scared. I told you that I couldn't live that kind of life where I couldn't leave the house. You also promised me that you wouldn't let me live that kind of life, and I could do whatever I wanted! But what is the reality? I can only go to places you allow me to go, and I have to go through your layers of screening to make friends. You just changed the cage to lock me up."
Yun Kai said awkwardly, "Yueming, I'm not locking you up. Bangkok is not like Yunxiang. I'm just worried about you going out alone. I'm worried that you might make bad friends."
Yue Ming said sternly, "Ten Ti Lings are not as dissolute as one Luo Er, and ten Ti Lings are not as bad as one Su Shi. Did I ask you to break off all ties with them? I didn't ask you to break off all ties with those bad guys because I trust you. I believe you know what's important and what you can and can't do. I didn't expect you to be so open to your own boundaries."
Yun Kai wanted to hug her: "I understand. I won't restrain you like this in the future. Let's not quarrel anymore."
She pressed her palm against his chest, preventing him from getting any closer. Tears hung on her eyelashes, and Yueming said sadly, "You don't understand. You're just trying to coax me into listening to you by giving in now. I'm going back to Kunming. Think about it carefully! When you really figure it out, come find me in Kunming."
Yun Kai pulled her into his arms, helplessly blaming her: "What childish things are you saying? Aren't you ashamed of running away from home at this age? You're getting married in a few months. If you run away now, the master and the mistress will beat me to death."
Yueming struggled in vain and burst into tears in his arms: "Master and Madam should beat you to death. You have bullied me so much, even beating you to death would be too easy for you."
Yun Kai held her in his arms and rocked her gently like coaxing a child, saying softly, "I know you feel wronged. It was Abby who was wrong. Please forgive Abby this time. Abby will change."
A cry of curse came from his chest: "You're kidding me! You've always been a dead pig that's not afraid of boiling water. You're not going to change."
Yun Kai patted her on the back and accused her, "That's not right! Think about it honestly. How much have I changed for you? I hardly go to the cockfighting arena anymore, and I hardly fight anymore."
Yueming wanted to raise her head to protest, but Yunkai pushed her back to her chest. She said angrily, "Have you changed? You don't have time."
This is true. After being exposed, Yun Kai laughed and said, "I'm really afraid that you will melt if I hold you in my mouth, and I'm afraid that you will fall if I hold you in my palm, so I'm so controlling. From today on, I will also believe that my little A Yue is a sensible girl. Just like you believe in me, I will give you some space of your own. But let's make it clear first, I won't interfere with who you make friends with, but I can't interfere with Ti Ling."
After such a huge commotion and dragging Zhong Luoyu into it, Yueming felt very disadvantaged to call it a day. She raised her head, sniffed, and asked, "How big of a point do you mean?"
Yun Kai opened a tiny gap between his thumb and index finger: "That's all."
Yueming snorted and tried to push him away, but Yunkai hugged her and laughed, "I'm so happy to tease you! Okay, okay, the competition just now doesn't count. From today on, as long as you tell me in advance and bring your family driver, you can go wherever you want."
"Then will you still go to places you shouldn't go with those two bad guys?"
"I'm not going! If they insist on taking me, I'll just say I'm henpecked. Let them laugh if they want, it's the truth anyway."
Feng Xiaosai knew the storm was over when he heard the young master's laughter coming from upstairs. He took out a stack of banknotes and handed them out one by one to the people waiting outside: "Everyone has worked hard today. This small gift is not considered a respect. Everyone, take it and have a cup of tea. The young mistress will not be going out today, so you can all go!"
