Bab 451: Ugly Rat

Li Xueyue was feeling as nervous as the first time she stepped into the spacious meeting room. The same table greeted her, round and large. No one was in attendance yet. She came together with Yu Zhen this time, unlike the previous time when she came alone and everyone had arrived earlier than the meeting time and was already seated.

"Don't be nervous, I'm right here," Yu Zhen said from behind her. He placed a hand on her lower back, and guided her to her seat. 

"I thought this was Representative Wu Shiming's seat," Li Xueyue said when he forced her to sit down beside him. At the memory of the snarky man dressed in green robes, her lips twitched. He was difficult to read. His playful nature made it hard for her to gauge his true personality.

Were all of the people in the Wu Family like that? She recalled Wu Xiang, the Chancellor's son, was also very playful with Yu Zhen despite how dangerous it was.
