Chapter 24: A NEW YOUNG MASTER
Sunlight poured into the villa as Chen Yu stood by the mirror, adjusting the cuffs of his white dress shirt. His tie hung loose around his neck, his expression distant.
Today's meeting wasn't just business.It was with Lin Qianhong, the sharp, elegant CEO of Han Financial Group — a woman known for her political connections and ruthless deals.
Behind him, Meiyun leaned against the doorframe, arms crossed, dressed casually in soft loungewear. Her hair was still a little messy from sleep.
"You're leaving early again?" she asked, voice calm but laced with something heavier.
Chen Yu glanced at her reflection in the mirror. "Important meeting."
"With a woman," she said, half-joking, half-not.
Chen Yu smirked. "Does that bother you?"
"No. I just hope she knows you're hard to tame."
He walked over, pulled the tie into place, and gave her a small smile. "I'm not anyone's to tame."
Meiyun raised an eyebrow. "Except maybe Ruxue's when she's in a mood."
"I heard that," Ruxue called out from the kitchen, walking in with a tray. She placed a warm glass of milk beside him. "Drink this before you go. You didn't eat much last night either."
