Falling Dreams, Rising Hopes: Saving Mr. Boyfriend
Chapter 177 - Shifting To Yu Tian's Home
Now that Yu Tian had arrived, he swiftly got Yu Bufan to transfer Mei Qingyang's stuff to his apartment. While he and Yu Bufan were celebrating in their hearts, Mrs. Zhao was throwing daggers to the girl through her eyes since she had stepped in the house.
Yu Tian already had an assistant, why did he need an additional servant? He had number of servants under him as well. On the top of that, this girl was not a person who had undergone rigorous training like other servants in the house, nor did she belong to a bigger house, to perhaps make her his mistress. What qualifications did she have to enter his home as a servant?
"Aunt Zhao, is there some problem? I see that you're not really happy with my decision," Yu Tian had been observing her for past one hour through the corner of his eyes. She had been staring at his kitten since then. It was not a pleasant feeling. Who was she to scrutinize the person he had chosen like this?
"Young master, it is not my place to say who your hire and who not. But then, I've been raising you like a mother since your beloved mother passed away. Won't you believe me when I say this lass is a trouble? That she won't do you any good?" she wiped her fake tears, putting forth her grievances to Yu Tian. If someone outside were to see the scene, they would surely think that Yu Tian had done grave injustice to the old lady.
"Hmmm? So, you're questioning my judgement then?" Yu Tian kept his voice incredibly low, giving it an eerie feel. Other servants were standing nearby, keeping their heads down but watching the show. As soon as the pressure in Yu Tian's colder than ice voice increased, everyone started trembling.
Since the day this girl had come in his life, he had calmed down quite a bit. He was not as scary as before. But today it seemed like that he had reverted back to his old self. However, Mrs. Zhao was still confident in her bond with the young master, even though she was thoroughly rebuked last time.
"That is what not I meant young master. What I am saying is, it is my duty as your elder to remind you what is right and what is wrong. And as a person who has seen you grow up so closely, I know what suits you the best. This lass is not even worth your shoes!" Mrs. Zhao looked at the girl haughtily. Sometimes, people just didn't know when to shut their mouths. If this was some old era, she would have been sentenced to death by beating ten times by now.
Mei Qingyang, who was standing behind Yu Tian's chair, looked at her pitifully. Then, in an act of defiance, she stepped ahead and sat down in Yu Tian's l.a.p. A surprise flashed through his eyes but he decided to play along. When would he have a chance to be this intimate with her when alone?
Mei Qingyang, very boldly, placed one hand on his c.h.e.s.t and the other one around his neck. She could clearly feel his heartbeat increase rapidly.
"It seems to me Mrs. Zhao, you're either insulting young master's intelligence or you're questioning his mother and aunt, who are the people who actually raised him, don't you think?" she had a provocative look in her eyes. If this old lady really thought she had a loose character, then she would just give her what she wanted.
Although Qingyang had been avoiding her since the official announcement, she did not know that this old lady would exercise her right as his nanny like this. She did not care about her own reputation but she could not hear her speaking non sense about him or his mother.
But really, whose side was she? Wasn't this old lady from Yu Tian's mother's side? Why was she behaving like she was in cahoots with his aunt?
Mei Qingyang was puzzle by all this. She could not understand why every lady in Yu Tian's life was trying to be dominant over him, like he was some toy. Could he not just be a normal human being?
Mrs. Zhao felt quite humiliated like this. It was hilarious how many expressions the old lady's face went through. She first had shock on her face by Mei Qingyang's move, then disgust and then anger. Not only was this girl slandering her, but she was also behaving as if she was mistress of the house. Taking a jab on her while sitting in such a compromising position, that too with her young master, it was outrageous to Mrs. Zhao.
The old lady meekly replied, "That was not my intention at all. Young master, this girl is putting words in my mouth. How could I ever speak against your mother? She was the one who gave me a second chance at life!" This time, real tears started flowing through her eyes, even unknowing to her.
Mei Qingyang felt sad. She was indeed their elder. But did the age give her the right to do whatever she wanted?
Yu Tian was holding Mei Qingyang by her petite waist, lest she fell down. His grip around her waist tightened. He was enraged over Mrs. Zhao's behavior too. He had been giving her quite some freedom. But the water was over the head now.
"Aunt Zhao, from today onwards, you won't be supervising the work in my house anymore. But I also don't want to abandon you on account of your services all these years. Nonetheless, I think it is time for you to retire. What do you think?" Yu Tian told her coldly.
"Are… are you sending me away?" she asked shivering in fear.
"No, especially since my girl here doesn't want to hurt your feelings. You will still manage the kitchen. I will give you two people under you for that. Apart from that, you won't be able to command anyone here. Do you understand?"
Having her authority taken away like this, she dropped down to her knees, her heart hurting. She had no idea how she had provoked the anger of her young master. Whatever happened to that cute little boy? She had no idea that the cute little boy had died that one day when she had personally delivered him to Yu Rong's doorstep even though he had shared with her how his aunt had been inappropriately touching him.
Aunt Zhao wept sitting on the floor while Yu Tian got up and took Mei Qingyang with him to his bedroom.
------
"Do you think I was too harsh?" he asked the girl, who was staring at her hand intertwined with his. This guy had become too shameless. At home, he would not even let go of her hand. Although, she didn't dislike the feeling, but it was still too weird.
She raised her head towards him who was nonchalantly looking at her like it didn't concern him.
"Uhh… I didn't want her to go away because she has much more knowledge than us about Yu Rong and your mother. She also might have clues to your dad. She will definitely contact Yu Rong soon. We need to keep an eye out," Mei Qingyang stated. It did seem plausible but her confidence always put him at ease. She was much better than him in judging people.
"That was one bold move out there though. What were you expecting?" Yu Tian started teasing her.
"What do you mean expecting? I was just showing her that I indeed seduced you, as she was expecting. Now I become the bad person. At least let her remember you as a kind boy," she looked into his black hole like eyes. She could drown in them anytime, they were like a bottomless pit. At least now though, they were regaining their shine. His eyes, with its original glow, must truly be beautiful.
How could God make someone so adorably handsome? Then she felt the eyes inching closer to her face. This guy! He was taking too many liberties!!
"When you put her in charge of food, did you not think she could poison it?" she asked while covering his whole face with her palm. Yu Bufan just entered the room and he could not help but snort. This lovey dovey couple was making him too envious.
Mei Qingyang got up abruptly from Yu Tian's l.a.p as soon as she spotted Yu Bufan.
"That's why I am replacing the people under her. They are my trusted people, they will see to it nothing happens," he shrugged his shoulders. If he had thought it through, then it was fine. Guess, her life in coming days would be easier from this aspect at least.
