Chapter 10 â Donât cry (1)
Xu Yushan had finally moved into the Zhongâs mansion; naturally she couldnât wait to show off her new status as Miss Zhong to her friends.
She had invited her old co-workers, some closer girlfriends from the past, even some male friends to a party at the Zhongâs mansion. She had heard that the third floor of the mansion was unoccupied and rarely used. On top of that it even has an indoor swimming pool, perfect for hosting gatherings.
After she had contacted everyone by phone, she turned around and told the maid, âSet up the third floor, I have guests coming for a party this afternoon.â
Zhong Chi would be out of the country for a couple of days for meetings and wouldnât be returning to the mansion. Xu Yunhui went with him as well to take care of him.
Otherwise, Xu Yushan would not be daring enough to host a party at home.
The maid paused for a second and said, stuttering, âThe third floor⦠the third floor was cleaned up yesterday. Miss had moved in with the two young masters.â
Xu Yushanâs face turned colors, âWhat Miss? From now on, you are to refer to her as Second Miss! And what are these young masters you speak of? The Zhongâs has only one young master, and thatâs my brother!â
The maid lowered her head without saying another word.
It had been over ten years; it wouldnât be easy to start referring to them differently.
Her reaction enraged Xu Yushan even more.
Still, there was a bit of distance, a bit distance between herself and Zhong Yuhuan! Thatâs why even the servants in this mansion had no respect for her!
âWhere is Zhong Yuhuan? Is she up yet?â asked Xu Yushan as she tried to suppress her feeling of loathing toward Zhong Yuhuan.
Zhong Yuhuanâs words from yesterday were still seared deeply into her memories. She replayed those words in her head over and over again and each time she did that she became more envious and hateful.
How could Zhong Yuhuan had so much?!
Why was she such a bully and continue to have a hold on everything here? The new Madam of this mansion was her mother!
âMissâ¦.â The maid was half way through before she corrected herself, âSecond Miss is not yet up.â
Xu Yushan immediately started running upstairs, âI am going to talk to her. This is ridiculous. This is the Zhongâs mansion, why does she get an entire floor to herself?â After she finished saying that, she immediately added, âIf dad was home, heâd be very upset!â
The maid chased after her and tried to talk her out of it by saying, âSecond Miss is usually quite cranky when she first wakes up. Now might not be the best time.â
Xu Yushan thought to herself, her being cranky would be perfect.
Ideally, she should start going off on me, then I could show the surveillance video to dad and have Zhong Yuhuan removed from the third floor.
Xu Yushan picked up her pace and arrived on the third floor in no time.
When she arrived at the end of the stairs on the third floor, there was a door, a wooden door. It looked fragile, yet Xu Yushan wasnât able to open it.
Xu Yushan almost couldnât keep her mean tone under control but finally was able to force a smile on her face and said to the maid, âWhat is the meaning of this? We are a family. Why does she have a door here? Is the purpose to keep the rest of us out?â
The maid smiled but didnât comment.
Xu Yushan turned around to give Zhong Chi a call.
But at this time, Zhong Chi had just boarded the plane as did Xu Yunhui. Naturally she wasnât able to reach any one of them.
Xu Yushan had no choice but to grit her teeth and let it go for now.
But what was she to do?
She had already called up all her friends and the words had already gotten out.
Now that Zhong Yuhuan had taken up the entire third floor, how was she going to host her gathering?
