Xiao Mei woke up late.
It was almost eleven am in the morning and MinDe already left.
When she stood up, she inwardly cursed MinDe as she supported her waist.
'That bastard really doesn't know how to control his desire. Ouch... It hurts.'
She slowly walked towards the bathroom and took a shower.
After she was done dressing up, she immediately went to the kitchen.
"Young Mistress, Young Master already left. He said that you must eat before leaving the house."
Xiao Mei nodded.
"What did you cook?"
"Young Mistress, there are pig liver, swallow's nest, dumplings and fried rice."
"Okay."
Xiao Mei sat on the chair. When the servants carried the food and placed it on the table, she suddenly had the urge to puke after smelling something bad.
She tried to control herself from puking but she failed.
She stood up and immediately ran towards the sink.
*puke* *cough* *cough*
The servants panicked.
"YOUNG MISTRESS!!!"
They flocked around her, making her dizzy.
"W-wait.."
Xiao Mei tried to grab something to support herself but her vision went blurry and she fainted.
"YOUNG MISTRESS!!! HURRY!! CALL SECOND YOUNG MASTER!!!"

FengJiu woke up feeling stuffy all over her body. She turned her head and saw MinFeng sleeping beside her.
His arm was wrapped around her waist, securing her inside his embrace. While the other one was cupping her breast.
She did not know how long she stared at him.
'I am so blessed to have you by my side. You are my world. Thank you for loving me like this.
Thank you for making me feel like a Queen. MinFeng... I really don't know if I can live without you.'
She slowly snuggled inside his embrace and enjoyed his warmth.

Xiao Guan's face was full of anger as he stared at the entrance. He had been waiting for Xiao Mei since noon. It was already three in the afternoon.
*slam!*
'This ungrateful child!! Why is she late?! I've been waiting for her for almost three hours already!!!
Who does she think she is?! I will definitely slap her once I see her!! Damn it!!'
Xiao Guan's phone suddenly rang.
"Hello?"
"Dad?"
"Ah Mei???! Where are you?! I've been waiting for you since ages ago!!! Why are you not here??"
"Dad I---"
"Are you trying to intimidate me?! Now that you are climbing a tall branch, you don't want to respect me anymore?? Hah!! How ungrateful are you?! I wasted my time waiting for you but you never came!"
"Dad, listen to me. I am-----"
"No need!! I don't want to hear anything from you!!"
Xiao Guan ended the phone call.
'He immediately stood up and drove his car back to the ancestral house.
When he arrived, the butler was already waiting for him.
"Eldest Master, Old Master wants to talk to you."
Xiao Guan was puzzled.
'Father? Father wants to talk to me? If so, why didn't he call directly on my phone number?'
Although he was skeptical, Xiao Guan still reached the phone and spoke.
"Father---"
"You stupid man!!!! What did you do, ahh?!!"
Xiao Mei's grandfather roared at him.
Xiao Guan went speechless.
'What did I do?!'
"Father, what are you trying to say----"
"Do not deny it!! Someone already told me what you did!! You even tried to use Ah Mei as a business collateral?!! Are you insane?!!"
Xiao Guan paled.
'Who told him? Was it her?? That ungrateful child!!! Such a tattle tale!!'
"Father!! It's not what you think!! Since young, Xiao Mei was already betrothed to Robert Johnson."
"Nonsense!! I did not know such thing!!"
"Father---"
"Don't try to reason out!! You even sold her for five million dollars!! As a father, how can you do something like that?!
I did not expect that I would raise a worthless son like you!! You are the lowest, the shame of our family!!"
Xiao Guan panicked.
He could tell that his father was very angry at him.
Now was not the time to anger his father.
The selection was almost over. His brothers were very competitive. If he suddenly fell from his father's grace, he would definitely lose in the race.
Even though Xiao Guan wanted to retort back, he could only swallow his grievance.
"Father... I know... I'm sorry... I will talk to Xiao Mei and apologies to her."
Xiao Guan heard him exhale.
"Ah Guan... You truly disappointed me this time... I never thought that Xiao Mei grew up without experiencing your love.
If I knew that you never really cared for her, I would have never allowed you to take her with you in America."
"Father!! I do love Ah Mei!! She is my flesh and blood!! How can I neglect her?? Who told you those things?? Don't listen to them!! They were just trying to put wedge in our relationship!"
"Ah Guan...I already decided to disqualify you. Starting from now, you are not allowed to participate in the selection.
The businesses I gave you will be yours but you will not have any shares in our company.
Do not disturb Xiao Mei again. If I found out that you tried to contact her and asked for her help, I will disown you!!"
*tuut* *tuut* *tuut*
Xiao Guan suddenly fell on his butt.
The words his father said was echoing inside his head.
'I can't participate anymore? Why?'
He felt like his ears were ringing.
'My dream to become the next Patriarch is over... I---'
Xiao Guan paled.
'No... NO!!'
Xiao Guan stood up.
"Eldest Master? Are you okay?"
The butler who was standing beside him tried to help him up but he slapped his hands.
"Don't touch me!!"
He turned and walked away.
'I must talk with Xiao Mei.. that's right!! Xiao can convince father to forgive me!!'
Xiao Guan immediately texted Xiao Mei, asking to meet up with her once again.
[Dad, I'm at DuXing Hospital right now.]
When he received her reply, Xiao Guan grabbed his keys and drove his car towards DuXing Hospital.
