One and Only: Doting CEO's Infinite Love

Chapter 550 - 548 Past Dreams (3)

Yuan Yumeng didn’t expect to actually fall asleep last night, she woke up and reached for her phone beside the pillow, glancing at the time—it was already past nine in the morning—There was still an unread message.

She casually opened it: [My brother’s things have been sent to you, I’ve also posted the address to you.]

This number looked strange, some illegible text, but she knew it was Ye Xu—

The beauty’s things!

Yuan Yumeng threw on some clothes and dashed downstairs, excited like a child, she happened to bump into Sister-in-law Zhang in the hall.

She smiled and grabbed her hand, "Sister-in-law Zhang, has the newspaper delivery person come today?"

Sister-in-law Zhang was stunned by the beaming face in front of her, didn’t respond for a while, "Yes, the newspapers are on the dining..."

Before she finished speaking, Yuan Yumeng excitedly rushed into the dining room and unexpectedly saw Huo Junting.

Why hadn’t he left?

Although he seldom stayed here, every time he did, he’d leave for the company early, but today it’s already past nine, why was he still here?

"Morning—"

Yuan Yumeng greeted distantly, her eyes remaining fixed on the newspaper he was holding.

Huo Junting slightly moved the newspaper, assessing her from top to bottom, "Hand broken, can’t even dress properly?"

Yuan Yumeng coldly lowered her gaze, only to see a large section in front of her wide open—not revealing anything sensitive, but... indeed a bit too open. She awkwardly adjusted her clothing, "Could I have the newspaper?"

"The newspapers are all here, get it yourself."

The man’s voice was cold and sharp, colder than the weather.

Yuan Yumeng immediately walked over, started flipping through the newspaper, why wasn’t it there? Why wasn’t the letter there?

Could it still not have been delivered?

Huo Junting glanced at her, "What are you looking for?"

"Oh, nothing." Yuan Yumeng immediately stepped aside, ever since the marriage, she’d been deliberately keeping a distance from him, "I’ll head upstairs first."

"Wait—"

Her steps were stopped by his call.

Yuan Yumeng turned with a stiff back, "What is it?"

"Sit down, have breakfast with me." Huo Junting’s tone sounded like giving orders to his subordinates.

Yuan Yumeng wanted to leave, wanted to ignore—

Unexpectedly, the man said again, "I’ve spent so much money on you, asking you to accompany me for breakfast, is it too much?"

Yuan Yumeng clenched her hands, she knew he was deliberately tormenting her, the reason? She didn’t know.

Maybe it’s because she cursed him out in the bustling streets, making him lose face...

In many people’s eyes, he’s a high-standing creator, being scolded like that by an ordinary girl, it’s hard not to feel uncomfortable.

She turned over, containing repulsion in her heart, went to sit down, "Not too much, but I have no appetite, I can only sit, not eat along."

"Fine—"

With the word finished, he threw the newspaper by her hand.

Yuan Yumeng raised her eyes, "I don’t read newspapers."

"I want you to read." The man insisted.

"I won’t read, you can’t—"

"Yuan Yumeng, I can." Huo Junting interrupted in time, that cold and stern handsome face showed even less warmth at the moment, "Don’t forget, the people over in Yu City are still in my hands."

The woman felt a strike to the head, her eyes full of anger, but she still picked up the newspaper in front of her.

Didn’t expect it to be news from the entertainment section.

The entertainment section, why was he so engrossed just now?

While the woman was perplexed, she didn’t see the look the man gave her, those deep dark eyes filled with teasing and... tenderness.

He said, "Read out the content at the top."
