Chereads / Sleeping With My Brother In Law / Chapter 8 - His Hands Around Her Waist

Chapter 8 - His Hands Around Her Waist

"The meeting?" the man repeated like an imbecile. He saw a young girl sitting alone and cherishing the food. She looked so cute that he instinctively came here to chat with her. To his surprise, despite the rare and expensive luxurious jewels and dress, she was so sweet and naive.

He was only enjoying the conversation so he did not understand why the host of the party had come to him. When was he waiting for him? And why in the world did they need a meeting? He was not even in the same business line.

"Mr Han, i think.." he did not know how to form the words properly. It was a dream for many businessmen to arrange a meeting with him. What if he took it as an insult that he rejected the offer?

"Mother, you are here?" Han Zhou noticed his mother and ignored the man at once. The man felt relieved and quickly left. But he was reminded about the girl. It would be best if he dragged her with him. Han Zhou was not a kind and amiable man as he was seen but a monster in disguise and who did not know about it.

But when he turned to call for her, he noticed Han Zhou had wrapped his hand around her waist and she was leaning on his chest. His eyes widened. Didn't they say he got married recently? And now he was taking another girl in front of his mother.

"Mei, quickly greet mother." Han Zhou spoke in a loud voice as if he was afraid that his voice would drown in the music. 

"Hmm? I have already greeted her when we have come. Did you not get the chance yet?" she asked with a look of confusion on her face. Han Zhou tilted his face and looked behind. A smirk formed on his face, confusing Xia Yu further.

"Yes, I was busy. Mother! The party was much better than I had expected. You are always the best." the woman beamed instantly.

"Yan'er helped me in preparing everything. She is such a sweet child." she pulled Su Yan from the grasp of her mother from behind and patted her hand. If a stranger would see, he would easily believe that Su Yan and Han Jing were a pair of mother and daughter.

Then she glared back at Han Zhou, "You child! You did not have time to greet your mother because you are busy with your wife. Have you already forgotten me?" Although she was complaining, her eyes were filled with warmth and love.

Han Zhou wrapped his arms around her neck. "Mother, did you have dinner? I am starving after entertaining so many guests." Han Jing sighed and forgot about her complaints. 

"Come, I did not have my dessert either. We will eat together." She took a step forward but paused when she saw Xia Yu following them. Her eyes were sharp and though she said nothing, her message was clear.

"I need to use the restroom first. How about you go and I will join you later?" How could Han Zhou not see the signal his mother had passed her. But he feigned ignorance and nodded.

Then he left with his mother followed by the Su Family. One would think that she would feel disheartened but she took a breath of relief.

"Phew! A few hours more." Xia Yu took the benefit and slipped on the first floor. For the whole party, she did not return.

She found the rest room prepared for the guests, locked the door and slept. How much time had passed when she woke up.

She rubbed her groggy eyes and adjusted her dress. But when she walked out of the room, she blinked. 

She was stunned to see that party had long ended. The servants were cleaning the hall. Not even a single guest or family member was left.

"They forgot about me." She did not know if it was a good thing or bad thing. But now when it had come to this, she could only adjust her clothes and leave.

But when she reached the parking lot, she noticed that the car she had driven there was not there. Asking the staff, she confirmed that it was taken by the Han Family.

"So they took the car but they forgot the member who had driven it." she did not know whether to laugh or cry over it. For now, she could only go to the exit and take a taxi. The hotel was a popular one. She easily got a taxi only after walking a few steps. 

"Maam would you pay in cash or online?" asked the driver as soon as she hailed the taxi.

But as she took the taxi, she realized she did not have cash with her. She did not have a purse when she went to sleep and her phone was dead. A strange expression appeared on her face as she stared at her phone.

"Is there some problem maam?" i will take online payments if you are worried." even the driver had noticed that she did not have a purse with her. But she was dressed wealthily. There was no way that she did not pay.

"Ah, the issue is, my phone is dead. Would it be fine if I pay when I reach my home?" she could only thick her skin as she asked. But even then her face was red and she felt embarrassed.

The man noticed it and laughed.

"Of course ma'am. As long as you have money at home?" the question was asked with some doubt but she immediately nodded with a redder face.

"I will even give you a good tip. Please drive to the Meridian Bay villas." hearing the name of the place the man was finally at ease. Not everyone could enter that place, if the woman had the qualifications to go there, she would surely pay.

Xia Yu sighed as she read his face but she could only feign ignorance as the car started but it had only started when her eyes widened again.
