The Devil's Sleeping Beauty

Chapter 9 Something smells fishy!

When Little Melon run off, he ended up going to the elevator. He was just sitting inside and was crying as the people who went in and out the elevator couldn’t help but glance at him. They tried speaking to Little Melon but he ignored them. It was until Little Melon reached the ground floor, though he didn’t went out, he remained there.

A man went in and heard Little Melon’s sobs. Since the man was very fond of kids, seeing a kid cry made him worried.

"Little boy, what’s wrong?" The guy sat beside him.

"U-Uncle said that... that momma doesn’t love Mello!" He cried out while burying his face on his knees.

"No way. Every mother loves their kids you know." The man said gently.

Hearing what he said, Little Melon finally raised her head to look at the man with his tearful eyes. "R-Really? Momma loves Mello?"

Upon seeing Little Melon’s face, the man’s eyes went wide. Little Melon looked exactly like him... except for his eyes and hair color! A face like Little Melon... Did he impregnated some woman without his knowledge? But he always used protection! How can that be?!

"Momma loves Mello?"

The man snapped out of his trance and nodded. "Yes! Yes! Of course your mother loves you so don’t cry, okay? Boys like us shouldn’t cry." He patted his head. "Is your name Mello?"

"Yes... Mello’s name is Xia Mello..." Little Melon said while wiping his tears.

Xia? Xia is a common family name in his country but seeing how the boy is all dressed up and is inside a five stars hotel, could he be a member of the rich Xia family? He didn’t remember sleeping with a woman from a Xia family.

"My name is Lu Xian Yu. Let me help you look for your mother, I bet she’s really worried of you." If he will be able to see the woman, he will be able to remember if she was one of the women he slept with, after all, he never forgets a woman’s face!

"Momma said not to talk to strangers..." Little Melon said cutely as he was suddenly reminded of his mother’s words.

"You’re already talking to me."

"..."

Lu Xian Yu chuckled. "Don’t worry, I’m a good guy. Anyway, what floor did you came from?"

Little Melon stared at him with his red and puffy eyes, he was hesitant but seeing the man smiling friendly at him, Little Melon couldn’t help but trust him a little. "Top..."

"Oh, are you attending the banquet too? I’m on my way there." Lu Xian Yu stood up and pressed the 27 button since he didn’t press it earlier.

"Here." He reached out his hand to Little Melon. "Why don’t you tell me more about your mom while we go up?"

Little Melon looked at his hand before he held it and stood up. "Momma’s a pianist. Mello loves momma a lot."

Lu Xian Yu nodded. "Yes, yes, I can see that little Mello loves her a lot. A pianist? What’s her name?"

Since Little Melon was still doubting Lu Xian Yu, he was not going to sell his mother out to him. "Momma’s name is momma."

"..."

----

The moment the elevator door slid open, Lu Xian Yu watched Little Melon reconcile with Xia Meiren.

Of course Lu Xian Yu was able to recognize the woman in front of him since Xia Meiren was a famous pianist.

Nope, he surely didn’t sleep with her. If he was able to seduce her, he will definitely date her for a few months since Lu Xian Yu was a fan of her music and since Xia Meiren was a great beauty.

But since it wasn’t him who touched her, could it mean that his twin brother, Lu Yifeng did so? No way... his older twin brother wasn’t fond of women. He knows that Lu Yifeng is definitely a gay!

It was until Xia Meiren looked at him in surprise. "Y-You... You’re... L-Lu Yifeng?"

Xia Meiren’s heart was beating so fast since she was so nervous upon thinking that he’s Lu Yifeng.

"..." Did his brother really slept with her? Why does she know him? But that can’t be, right? Lu Yifeng would always decline all the women that Lu Xian Yu sent him. How did he end up sleeping with a her? Is he really straight?

"Momma, this is Uncle Xian Yu... he helped Mello return here." Little Melon’s cute voice was heard.

Xian Yu?

Lu Xian Yu gave his charming smile. "My name is Lu Xian Yu, it’s an honor to finally meet my idol in person."

Is he really not Lu Yifeng? Just like the rumors, Xia Meiren believes that Lu Xian Yu is a cold and stoic man while Lu Yifeng is the opposite, he’s the playful womanizer. According to how the man before her was acting, she can only think of Lu Yifeng!

Xia Meiren narrowed her eyes. "I see. Thank you for bringing my son back."

She didn’t dare ask him anything since what she was thinking right now is to avoid him as much as possible!

"I’m really grateful but I have to go, my friends are waiting. If you’ll excuse me." Xia Meiren turned to leave him.

Lu Xian Yu’s eyes were sharp and he noticed her hostility towards him. Something smells fishy! Is Little Melon related to his brother? He must be, right? Lu Xian Yu was not blind, he can definitely see the similarities between them.

Was his brother keeping a child and a woman from him?

Lu Xian Yu watched as Xia Meiren walked in a hurry to leave him behind. He didn’t stop her, he has a feeling that they will see each other again... it will surely be soon and this time, he will find out the truth from his brother.
