"You both...." Yu Mei was a bit speechless as she glanced at them. It has been only a few days since they had drawn swords at each other's neck in the Ren Mansion and now they looked amicable.

"We are neighbors," Mia cleared her throat noticing the shock on her face. Why is she looking at them as if they were inhumane beasts?

"Neighbors?" Jun Zixuan raised an eyebrow meaningfully.

Mia elbowed Han Jian Yu, "Did I not tell the truth?"

"We are indeed neighbors," The man nodded.

Yu Mei was momentarily stunned. This... Initially when she heard that Mia had those kind of intention for her brother, she was worried that Mia will get bullied or they won't work and she will be in a tough spot.

But looking at the current situation, her brother seemed to be rather....

She could not find a proper word.

So, she grabbed Han Jian Yu's hand and pulled him along with her.

Jun Zixuan glanced at their retreating back before looking at Mia from head to toe.

Mia raised an eyebrow, "Are you thinking that I am on purpose?" Noticing the doubt in his eyes, she shook her head and laughed, "It was a coincidence that he was my neighbor..." She narrated the whole story to him.

While Jun Zixuan and Mia were having a little discussion on their side, the sibling were locked in an intense staring session.

"You didn't tell me Mia is your neighbor when you called," Yu Mei glanced at the man with narrowed eyes.

"Neither did you tell me that you plan to marry him," Han Jian Yu leaned back on the wall as he thrust one of his hands inside his pocket.

"You should have seen it coming," Yu Mei coughed.

"I am okay with it as long as you are happy, Princess," Han Jian Yu said after some time. His cold face slightly shifted, "As for Mia... Us being neighbors is not a big deal so I did not bother bringing it up."

She smiled at his first sentence but frowned on the second one, "Brother, lately, do you have a shortage of women around you?"

Used to his sister's straightforwardness since decades, Han Jian Yu raised an eyebrow, "Do you want to recommend me one?"

"Uhh... If you want, I can. Just not her..." She pointed her chin towards Mia when she was not looking in their direction.

Han Jian Yu paused for a moment before he straightened up, "Why not?" His tone was casual as if he was talking about weather.

And Yu Mei noticed that he did not seem to have any intentions towards Mia, "Because she is special. I don't want her to be hurt," she said.

Han Jian Yu did not say anything, "Does he bullies you?" He asked after some time.

She easily understood who the 'he' was. She seriously shook her head.

"Are you lying?"

She shook her head again.

"Are you happy with him?"

She nodded.

"Are you insecure in this relationship?"

She shook her head.

"Do you really like him?"

She nodded.

"Does Mia know that this is your second life?"

She nodded once and paused a second later.

Her eyes widened slightly but they turned to normal, "Like I told you before, she has helped me a lot and we are really close to each other. It would be weird if I did not tell her about it," Is brother doubting something?

Han Jian Yu merely raised an eyebrow. He had this thought that Mia might know about this and his guess seemed to be right.

As the brother and sister walked back towards the couch, the other two people immediately stopped talking.

Han Jian Yu narrowed his eyes.

Yu Mei cleared her throat, "Mia~" She waved at her.

Mia walked to her, "How are you these days?"

"I am good. Did you finish the ad shoot?"

"Yes, I did. I think the ad will be out in some time..."

"Will you continue modelling?"

"No, it's troublesome..."

Their voices got smaller and smaller as they walked away leaving two certain alpha males alone with each other.

Jun Zixuan and Han Jian Yu had nothing to do or talk with each other so the air between them was exceptionally tense but they did not bother to break the silence as Jun Zixuan leaned back on the couch with his arms folded in front of his chest and Han Jian Yu stood with one of his hand inside his pocket, with his back facing towards the entrance.

That was the scene that Mu Shen witnessed as he stepped inside the mansion with his superstar aura.

He walked towards them and swung an arm around Han Jian Yu's neck without much restraints as he glanced at Jun Zixuan, ''Who is this gentlem-'' The rest of his words got stuck in his throat as his gaze landed on Han Jian Yu's side profile.

That handsome face was eerily dark as the pair of dark eyes looked at the indecent hand swung around his neck.

Mu Shen's prey instincts kicked in and he quickly retracted his hand, ''Y-Y-You somewhat resemble the President of Amaranthine....'' Unlike his Father who has met him in personal, he had only seen him in news and tabloids and the person in front of him really resembled...

''Mu Shen, I am not parking your car ever again. You just gave me a lift. Do you have to be so petty about it...'' Shi Luo's words came to a halt as she glanced at the familiar back, ''Brother...?''

Han Jian Yu's expression shifted slightly as he turned around.

Shi Luo smiled, upon confirming that it was him, ''Long time no see,'' She walked towards them and hugged him.

Han Jian Yu patted her back, ''It has been a long time indeed.''

While the two of them talked, Mu Shen stood rooted to his spot as if he was struck by thunder. What the-

He inched closer to Jun Zixuan, ''Is he who I think he is?"
