Chương 91: Chapter 91

"Does she know?"

"She doesn't need to know."

Meixiu looks out of the office window and sees how Xiaohui looks around the garden her mother grew fond of.

Mingzhu showed her around the villa, and she could see the amazement and excitement the older woman had on her face.

Xiaohui felt the warmth, even with the masculine man around the villa. When she's around, they look like a lost puppy.

They make sure she's feeling safe and not scared around them. Is this what someone with power feels like?

Weimin throws the dart to the dart board, his head shaking as he puts down the darts on the coffee table.

"For her safety, at least?"

Meixiu looked at her back, seeing as Mingzhu and Xiaohui both looked comfortable sitting down on one of the benches, her eyes looking at Weimin.

The guy raises both hands as if motioning his surrender to try to argue with Meixiu.

"I think it's best Xiaohui knows about it."

Meixiu was about to rebat when her phone dings, indicating she had received a message.

She looked at her phone sitting on the table and saw an unknown number texting her.

She sighs before grabbing the phone and opening up the message from the unknown number.

'They look lovely.'

Her eyes widen as she receives a photo of Mingzhu and Xiaohui in their backyard.

"Thank you for dropping us off."

Xiaohui bows down to show her gratitude towards Weimin. The guy smiles and bows down a little towards her.

Meixiu nodded towards her, subtly telling Xiaohui to enter their house, which the smaller woman did as she went away from the two childhood friends. Weimin's eyebrows raise a little, questioning Meixiu's way of protecting her wife.

"See? You should have told her."

He continued to argue, leaning beside the luxurious car he used to drop the couple off. Meixiu could only grab her phone from her pocket and look back at the message the person texted her.

Could it be one of their men?

But that's impossible; Meixiu knew her father well, and he wouldn't ask one of their men to harm Xiaohui. He knew Meixiu would quickly point it out.

With their actions earlier, they look comfortable around Xiaohui, and it doesn't seem that they are in the mansion to harm the young mistress.

The situation earlier caught Meixiu off guard. She doesn't know what to do because every time they try to pinpoint where the number is, it is either destroyed or in another country.

Her train of thought was interrupted when her phone suddenly rang. Her eyes caught up Suyin's name on the screen.

Weimin, being the curious cat he is, decided to peek at Meixiu's phone and saw a random woman's name on her screen.

"Ahem, maybe she is the reason."

Weimin coughed fakely, smiling a little before shaking his head in the process. Meixiu looks at Weimin and glares, smacking the guy's shoulder in the process, causing him to wince.

"Shut up; Xiaohui's my wife."

She spoke before walking away a little to answer the phone.

Suyin anticipated Meixiu's answer to her call. It had been a few weeks since they saw each other, and she felt a sense of longing towards the taller woman.

She'll be attending a cultural convention tomorrow, and she wanted to invite Meixiu not because her grandmother asked her to but because she wanted to.

It'll be nice to have someone who knows traditional and antique items with her.

And who's the best person she could ask for?

It's the legendary Song Meixiu!

"Hello?"

Suyin snapped out of her thoughts when she heard Meixiu's calming voice. She quickly stands up straight on the chair in which she's sitting, readying herself to accept the rejection coming from Meixiu.

But it'll be better if she accepts the invitation.

"Ms. Song, are you busy tomorrow?"

Her question causes the taller woman to stay silent for a while, probably wondering if she'll be doing something tomorrow.

Suyin felt her hands sweat in the process. Her head is thinking of possible answers Meixiu might give her.

'I'm sorry, Suyin; I'm not available tomorrow. Let me invite you to dinner to compensate for lacking.'

She couldn't help the blush that painted her cheeks when she imagined Meixiu saying that in a sweet tone.

Behind what other people call "beggar clothes" is someone attractive enough to pull a lot of girls.

With a couple of decent-looking clothes and decent shoes, Meixiu could potentially walk the runway.

If Meixiu became feminine, she might even pull up guys with status. That's how attractive and powerful Meixiu will be.

But she knew Meixiu was for the girls.

Well, you might think Suyin's head-over-heels towards Meixiu, but she's only stating things she observes towards the taller woman.

"I don't have any important things to do tomorrow; why?"

Meixiu gave her answer. Suyin's quivering lips suddenly curled into a smile, her heart beating fast as excitement filled her mind.

She quickly clears her throat, ready to state the details about the convection they'll be attending.

"I was invited to go to this convention, and I wanted to tag you in. There'll be a lot of antiques, and we might buy something from there."

Suyin explained, her head creating scenarios of how she'll act around Meixiu tomorrow and what they'll be doing after the convention.

Meixiu hummed in agreement and nodded as if the woman from the other side could see her. She couldn't help but chuckle a little at the stupidity she was showing.

Weimin, who was patiently waiting for Meixiu to drop the call to bid his goodbye, could see how Meixiu reacted to the message the woman probably said.

He couldn't help but shake his head, disagreeing with her actions toward others when she had a wife.

Suyin felt like she was on cloud nine when she heard Meixiu's chuckle on the other line.

"Yeah, I'll come with you."

Meixiu said this causes Suyin to smile widely from ear to ear.

"Thank you, Ms. Song. I'll message you what time I'll be fetching you tomorrow."

Meixiu hums in agreement and hangs up the call. She looked back and saw Weimin looking at her with disagreement in his eyes.

The reaction she received from the man made her question if she did something wrong before her mouth formed a circle, and she huffed a breath in the process.

"Whatever you're thinking, it's not that."

"Whatever you say, I'll personally hunt you down if you hurt Sister Xiaohui."

"Oh, please, I love Xiaohui enough to cheat on her."

Weimin stands up from leaning on the car. His hand went towards the car door and opened it before saying his last few words to the woman.

"I'm just making sure."

Weimin spoke before he entered the car and went away. Meixiu knows where he is coming from, considering his mother when he was a child, got cheated on by his father.

Meixiu sighs and shakes her head, walking towards the house, and she sees Xiaohui sitting down on the couch with her hands clasped together.

"Weimin looks a little upset."

She spoke as Meixiu put her shoes on the little shoe rack they have in the house. Meixiu went towards her and sat down beside her, leaning back on the couch.

"Don't mind him; what do you want to eat?"

"Lijuan invites us to lunch; she has something to share."

"Let's go then?"

Meixiu looks towards Xiaohui and smiles, causing the smaller woman to reciprocate her action before she nods and stands up from the couch.
