Like most young professionals, Yan Rumei wanted to advance in her career as an Accountant that was why she left City H and came to City D.

He also said that her parents wanted to meet her at the most prestigious hotel in City D tonight. [Hold on, is it even legal for me, a fully grown adult to be taken in by this Gu family? Or even, is it appropriate?!] Join Yan Rumei as she embarks on her new life adventure as a new daughter of a domineering CEO, be spoiled by her doting brothers, and run away from her persitent suitors.

Overly Suspicious Meimei

However, a few meters away from the four fans who were initially discussing Xue Xiu, two fans pursed their lips and spoke to each other.

"Hmp! Are these fans blind? Center? Best member? Do they even watch the practice and live performance videos of Eden?", one of the fans scoffed and told her friend.

Han Yueling is also a fan of the Eden girl group. But unlike the other fans who think that the group is being carried by Xue Xiu who is always the center, she thought otherwise. She believes that Xue Xiu is just dragging the group because of her lousy dancing and singing.

"Shh! Lingling, don't be too loud, or else they will band together and attack you verbally.", the other reminded her.

Compared to the explosive Han Yueling, Lai Ning is a more reserved fan.

"They can attack me if they want! I will show them the videos I've compiled for that sh*ty Xu---mm-mmp-!"

Lai Ning immediately covered Han Yueling's mouth and dragged her away while saying, "Yes, yes, I understand. Now let's go and line up to enter the special pass area."

Duan Heng sat at the driver's seat, and Yan Rumei sat at the passenger's seat.

She was actually a little bit nervous being alone in a small space with Duan Heng so she was just looking at the scenery while sipping her iced coffee.

The man on the other hand was just smiling with his eyes on the road. He couldn't stop thinking that he is finally on a date with Yan Rumei and will even visit her apartment where she lived for 3 years.

While he already knew where she was staying, he was wise enough to actually not let anyone know.

When they got to his car, he asked for the address and input it on the navigation app before he started to drive.

From the city center to the apartment complex where Yan Rumei lives, it took them only 20 minutes of driving compared to almost an hour via bus commute.

Yan Rumei instructed Duan Heng which building her unit was. They got out of the car after he parked at a nearby street with limited hour parking.

The building actually has underground parking lots for the tenants, but Yan Rumei opted out from this to reduce her rent.

The landlord was fine with it because there are other families that have more than one car who needed space, so he rented it at a slightly higher price.

She led Duan Heng to the 3rd floor where her 1-bedroom unit is located. While they are taking the stairs, Yan Rumei is also telling Duan Heng a few things about the place.

"Uhm, sorry Duan Heng. My place is really small. Please bear with me for a few minutes and then we'll go as soon as I collect a few things." Yan Rumei slightly bit the inner part of her lip.

She regretted why she agreed to let Duan Heng, a domineering Chairman and CEO, come with her here. If anything, her best choice should have been to come with just Tan Jiaying, but all the men in the room strongly disagreed.

Tan Jiaying could not protect her if there were any dangers. Even though Bodyguard Bo will be tailing them, it might be too late in emergency situations.

Surprisingly, although Bodyguard Bo did not like Duan Heng being close to their Miss and is still a little suspicious of him, he agreed when the latter volunteered.

"Meimei, even though I am very rich and am the next heir of the Elite Corporation, I've also lived in common places. Back in City H, I also lived in an apartment complex with one of our butlers.", he shook his head and comforted Yan Rumei.

But contrary to being comforted, Yan Rumei actually felt awkward when she heard it, [Wuwu, is it necessary to add 'I am very rich and am the next heir of the Elite Corporation'?]

Finally, they arrived outside her unit.

She took out her keys, inserted them and gently opened the door. To Duan Heng's surprise, Yan Rumei bolted inside as soon as the door was wide enough for her to enter.

The woman in question was panicking, [Holy cr*p! I forgot there are illegal things for the eyes in here!]

When she ran, she immediately grabbed a duffel bag she saw lying in the corner and then she dove on her bed. Well, more like just sat roughly because she didn't dare to make huge movements to potentially open her already closed wound.

She quickly took something from under her pillow and shoved it in the bag.

"Ahaha! I've missed my bed so much!", she awkwardly looked at the entrance's direction.

Duan Heng was seriously surprised. At the same time, he was trying to stop himself from smiling.

He hurriedly followed Yan Rumei when she rushed inside. Despite the fact that he was a few seconds late, he clearly saw a bright pink wire when she suspiciously put that thing in the bag.

What are the things that have wires and have a pink color? It could be an earphone or a charger. But Duan Heng quickly realized that those things won't make Yan Rumei embarrassed to this point of being overly suspicious.

So, his conclusion was it was something an adult woman would have. Something that shouldn't be mentioned at this time!

However, he could never stop himself from thinking about it as a weird image of Yan Rumei entered his mind.

He covered his mouth and turned away to hide his reaction, "Your bed is as small and cute as you Meimei. Your place is also pretty tidy."

Duan Heng then decided to walk towards a half partition to enter the mini-kitchen. He saw that this area has a small table and a chair.

Even though there are a few dishes in the sink, this area is still quite clean. The few seasonings on the countertop were all neatly arranged. There are also no unnecessary items that clutter the space.

Yan Rumei on the other hand tried hard to calm herself down after she 'successfully' hid that item. She also did not mind Duan Heng taking liberty going to the mini-kitchen because other than the dishes on the sink, she couldn't think of anything embarrassing that was in there.

"I didn't really have much time to fill the place with other things. After work, I sometimes eat at a cafeteria nearby, cook noodles or something easy, then I take a bath, browse my phone for a little bit and then just sleep afterwards.", she explained why there are just a few things in her unit. "Ah, there should be some bottled water in the mini-fridge, and some snacks in the cupboards, feel free to take some if you're hungry or thirsty."
