Chapter 83: Mei and Jin

Many believed that Long Mei and Jin Qing hardly knew each other, but that had been a misconception. 

Long Mei was once in a relationship with his brother, Jin Hu. But everyone knew that Jin Qing was never close to Jin Hu, never fond of him. Their relationship was cold and distant, never friendly and always at war. 

The only time Jin Hu and Jin Qing were in the same room was in forced proximity at family dinners, events, and meetings to which they had no say in the matter since they shared the same cruel and cunning father. 

Long Mei met Jin Hu shortly before she turned twenty. She attended a party hosted by some modelling friends when she was starting to get bored of the same scene: women who smoked excessively instead of eating, men that gawked at her too much for comfort, and people that made poor conversation. Long Mei was getting tired of it all and putting up with the sweet and gentle, easy to please act. She wanted adventure. She wanted risks.
