Lady Meilin is seduced by her green tea brother-in-law everyday

Jun Lei gave it one chicken thigh. General Big Yellow looked into the bowl and looked at Ju Lei again.

It barked once. "Are you trying to send a stray dog away?"

Jun Lei had no idea what the dog meant by barking but Jun Jie was sure that it was saying one chicken thigh was not enough. He added a wing and General Big Yellow stretched his head to look at the three boxes of deep fried chicken.

The dog barked again, sharing its dissatisfaction. Three boxes and only two pieces had been given to him! Did they think he could not count?

Jingzhe took one entire box and dumped eight more pieces of chicken in the bowl. General Big Yellow’s tail started wagging in excitement and he barked in a more gentle way.

As he trotted away to enjoy his third dinner meal of the night, he did not forget to glare at Jun Lei and Jun Jie. Those two were really not sensible humans.

"Did a dog just roll its eyes at me?" Jun Lei huffed in shock.

Jun Jie scoffed, "I think it looked down on us."

"Next time, don’t feed him scraps." Jingzhe told them.

Meanwhile, Mingzhe was observing the dog with renewed interest. It seemed to be as smart as his mother’s dog Black Guard. He was now old and slower but he had been smart and had a very large appetite in his prime.

He was the oldest living dog in the world at thirty one, not that the Jun’s had shared this fact with the world.

"Mei Mei, I want your dog." He said out of the blue.

"No." She answered.

Even General Big Yellow looked up from his bowl to bark his refusal. He was very happy where he was, he had no plans to leave any time soon. He and Noodles planned to grow old here in peace.

Mingzhe was not giving up easily. "But his talent is being wasted here. As an imperial guard dog, he can..."

"He is Mingzhu’s dog." Jingzhe said.

That ended all the bargaining. Mingzhe was not willing to snatch his niece’s pets. What if she cried? His mother would show up at the headquarters of the Imperial army and pull his ears in public.

Mei Mei went to the fridge and she brought out the cup cakes that were resting in there. She distributed them to everyone as they had run out of chicken and potatoes.

The cup cakes were of different flavors and unique chocolate caramel truffle, orange cream, honey lavender, berry blossom, rose raspberry, sea salt caramel, midnight mocha dream.

On the papers of the beautiful colorful cup cakes was a logo which was familiar to the Jun’s and yet it was surprising too. frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓

"Hmm, when did Hua Qi start making cup cakes?" Jun Yi asked.

Mei Mei pointed at Jingzhe. "Ask him."

"And the flavors too, is it just fancy names or do they taste exactly like the paper says." Jun Lei asked, sniffing the berry blossom cupcake which he had snatched quickly. For each flavor, there was only one cup cake so he was not taking chances by choosing the sea salt cup cake.

"Mingzhu said she wanted them so mom baked them." He answered.

"But it’s Hua Qi!!" Jun Yi exclaimed.

Casually, Jingzhe said, "My mother and I own Hua Qi."

Silence descended, thick and absolute. All chewing was paused, jaws dropped open. The crunching sound of bones made by General Big Yellow felt exaggerated, too loud against the newfound vacuum of words.

The cupcake in Jun Lei’s hand fell to the ground and General Big Yellow quickly run over and ate it one bite. Mei Mei’s hand that was about to take a rose raspberry cup cake froze, brushing against the frosting. Mingzhe, who prided himself in being impossible to shock was successfully shocked.

Jun Yi grabbed a random chicken bone from the table and put in her mouth without realizing what she was doing. When she realized that it was a bone from Mingzhe’s pile, she spat it out quickly and threw it down. She grabbed a cup cake and bit into it to clean her tongue.

Then, the reactions unfurled one by one:

"Wait.....wait....wait...." Mei Mei laughed. She could not believe that she had missed the obvious. How they always ate Hua Qi cheese cake whenever they pleased or had its new flavors that were not on the market!

"Is he going to wait forever?" Mingzhe snapped his fingers, "It seems your little boyfriend and his mother are very secretive and very impressive entrepreneurs."

Jun Lei’s business mode was switched on. "That is amazing. I know many people that have been trying to find out who the real owner of Hua Qi cakes is. What kind of other investments have you made? I can recommend some if you are interested in making more money. Do you have a portfolio? Also, Hua Qi can go public, why hasn’t it done so yet? Why do you remain privately owned?"

"We don’t need outside investments. We are still private the same way Jun investments remains private. My mother believes that a family owned business should stay within the family until it gets funding problems that cannot be solved internally." Jingzhe explained calmly.

His demeanor was calm, no bone of pride of arrogance about him even though he had just casually informed them that he was wealthy enough to fit in with the elite families of the empire.

Jun Yi jumped up like a little opportunist and she suddenly grabbed onto Jingzhe’s arm. "Brother-in-law, have you ever heard about the animal hospital that I want to build. I need around eight hundred million but from you I just need one small donation....if you wish to cover the entire budget I will not stop you."

Mei Mei gave her three gentle knocks on the back of her head.

Exaggeratedly, Jun Yi sat down and she started crying. "Brother-in-law, everyone is bullying me. Mingzhe slapped me on the back and he won’t let me date, Mei Mei has broken my head. My animals have no home, mom told me to earn my own money for the hospital and I am doing my best. All my pocket money goes into the hospital fund. I don’t even own a nice pair of shoes or jewelry....wuwuwu...I am so miserable."

All of the Jun’s remained indifferent. They were sure that Jingzhe would not fall for it. If Jun Yi did not own a own any nice jewelry, what were those diamond studs doing on her ears? That was one million and two hundred thousand yuan at least.

"How does a donation of one hundred million sound?" Jingzhe asked.

Jun Yi jumped up, dried her eyes and she quickly held her phone up with a polite smile. "Will that be wire transfer, cash or cheque?"

Jingzhe got his phone and he transferred the cash immediately. In fact, he sent two hundred million yuan and Jun Yi’s eyes widened. She opened her mouth and let out a scream loud enough to challenge a banshee, waking up some of the residents of the house, human and dog alike.

Thanks to her, Noddles caught General Big Yellow in the act. Eating chicken without her!!! It was a betrayal heavy enough to cause a divorce between a dog and a cat.
