My Scheming Little Devil-Chapter 817: Is She a Giant Panda?
He could feel her casual care in her words and actions.
He saw glimmers of hope.
Ye Lu didn’t make a sound, because her own emotions were also in turmoil.
But her determination would not be easily shaken.
It took nearly half an hour to finish the cleaning. She wasn’t very skilled, and despite her carefulness, she still hurt Third Young Master Jun, who didn’t grunt in a show of toughness.
But his increasingly pale handsome face still betrayed his pain.
"You should rest for a while," Ye Lu said upon seeing him covered in cold sweat. She hurried to make him comfortable. Why hadn’t Yan Su arrived yet? She was just about to step out.
Third Young Master Jun closed his eyes as if he had a third eye. Suddenly, he opened them again, and seeing that she was about to leave, his narrow eyes narrowed, and he tightly grasped her hand like an iron hoop.
"Don’t go!" he commanded in a deep, compelling voice, "Stay with me tonight, will you?"
Though he phrased it as a question, his grip didn’t loosen at all, making it clear he was not willing to let her go.
"I need to return to the Jun Family, let go," Ye Lu frowned.
All this taking care of an injured person was too prone to causing misunderstandings, and she wouldn’t let herself be swayed.
"The Jun Family has everything I need for my care. Here, there’s nothing, which is very inconvenient for me as a pregnant woman."
"But I have already hired a professional team to care for pregnant women, including a nutritionist, a gymnastics instructor, a psychologist, a masseuse, a prenatal instructor, an obstetrician, a monthly nanny... A total of twenty professionals are ready to move in and provide comprehensive care," he asserted.
Ye Lu’s face turned even paler as she listened. He had actually hired twenty people to take care of her, even secruing an obstetrician and a monthly nanny. Did this man have more money than he knew what to do with?
She was not a giant panda.
No, not even giant pandas were treated so extravagantly; she felt like an alien. It was maddening.
Third Young Master Jun was triumphant: "So, you can’t find an excuse. It’s decided then, you’ll move back in tonight!"
His tone was doting, yet it carried an irresistible momentum.
Third Young Master Jun thought to himself that things were progressing so well between them, he wasn’t foolish. When it was time to make a move, he had to act promptly.
Of course, he would spare no expense to create opportunities to be together, to conquer this stubborn woman, to make her fall in love with him all over again.
So, he had Feiyu arrange an ultra-professional team overnight. The first reason was to leave her no excuse to go to the Jun Family, and the second was to provide her with the utmost care and comfort.
Ye Lu was too exhausted even to glare at him. After thinking it over, she had gone to the Jun Family in the past to look for an opportunity to escape.
But now that she had found her brother Hua Lunxi, she wouldn’t have to rack her brains to find an escape on her own in the future. So, coming back might not be a bad thing.
Especially now that there had been a fallout between Jun Shi and Third Young Master Jun, and considering her attack, after much deliberation, she felt the most likely suspect was Jun Shi.
Staying in the Jun Family might not be safe.
...
The next day, Third Young Master Jun brought Ye Wanli to her.
At that moment, Ye Wanli was a picture of defeat, glaring hatefully at Ye Lu who sat on the sofa: "Heartless wretch, have you forgotten who raised you? You even harm your own father, you’ll come to no good end."
Everything had been going well for him until this wretched girl had destroyed his billions in wealth.
He despised her to his core. Even if Jun Shi hadn’t approached him, he would have wanted to kill the girl.
"How could I forget your kindness in raising me? Indeed, if it wasn’t for you, I wouldn’t be who I am today."
"Hmph, good that you know it," Ye Wanli said arrogantly, believing she was still the useless girl, oppressed by him for life.
