Words I Was Afraid To Hear

When they returned to City S, everything was on its usual state . The next weekend came in no time .

Dmitri Zhou was awakened by a call on his mobile phone .

He sluggishly picked it up .

"Mighty!!!" shouted a girl from the other end .

Dmitri was irritated . "Meimei! What"s with you this early?! It"s the weekend for pity"s sake!"

"Tri-ge, you and Mantge promised to come to the mall with me today!" the girl on the other line was sulking .

"Meimei, the mall will only open at 10AM! It"s only 6AM! Call Mantkun if you dare . I"m done talking to you!" he tapped to end the call .

Lu Meimei smiled . She loves to tease these guys . Today, she is planning to set them up with some girls .

She tapped to call another number .

"Hey Baby, good morning . " a soothing male voice greeted when her line connected .
Advertis.e.m.e.nt
Lu Meimei blushed in an instant . She gulped, then cleared her throat .

"Goo-good morning, Monty . Are-are you up? Why . . . why are you up so early?" her voice was shy . There was no trace of the demanding girl who made the earlier phone call .

Montgomery Adams, or Monty for many, stretched his tall body and got up from his bed . His Caucasian-Asian mix is a never fair advantage against other guys .

He met the Young Mistress of Luxe Entertainment when he shoot an advertis.e.m.e.nt for a carbonated drink .

"Meimei, I"m up . Wanna go somewhere?"

"Uhm . . . Mantge and Tri-ge will take me to the mall later . . . but . . . but we can take the dogs for a walk . "

"Sounds fun . I"ll go over in 30 . "

.

Mantarou Xiu, now 21, cleared his throat as he stood before the couple with their dogs .

"Mantge!" Lu Meimei"s mind was up in the clouds that she did not notice him closing in .

Monty Adams bolted and bowed . "Director Xiu . "

"Monty, we"re at the park . . . not in XCG . " Mantarou chuckled . His smile and hazel eyes closely resemble his late mother"s .

Lu Meimei looked around . "Is Tri-ge already here as well?" her voice had a tinge of preparing to be scold .

"Not yet . Go wash up if you still plan to take us to the mall . " He turned towards the man with a dog on a leash . "Monty, I believe you are coming as well?"

"Uhm . . . Mei, let"s go and prepare then . " Monty got his year-old golden retriever up and jogged away to prepare .

Lu Meimei walked with Mantarou Xiu back to the Lu manor .

Technically, Meimei is not related by blood to Manta but she is his stepmother"s niece so he treats her like a little sister .

Though he misses his own mother at times, Mantarou Xiu was lucky enough to grow up under his stepmother, Romina Ta .

Romina never treated him as somebody else"s child . She had twin daughters with Masaichi and she oriented them of the only brother they have .

.

Back in the Lu residence, Dmitri who had just arrived was forced by the master of the house to have breakfast with him .

"Dmitri, you should eat more . Your dad can"t keep boasting about himself for so long . " Lu Shaoting guffawed .

"Erm . . . I already ate at home, Sir . . . but, please excuse my intrusion as I have some coffee with you . "

"Not a problem . My sister"s stepson . . . uhm, I mean your cousin . . . he came earlier to look for Meimei, too . You guys going somewhere?" Lu Shaoting took a bite from the marmalade laden toast .

Dmitri snickered . "We believe your daughter is trying to match us up with some people she recently knew . We just let her be as not to burst her bubble . "

"Hah! It"s troublesome to find someone worthy nowadays . Good thing my son is still on his way to learn ABCs . "

"Tri-ge!" Lu Meimei was mortified . Her big brothers are ready and she was still playing with her samoyed . "Gi-give me thirty minutes!" she gestured the digits with her fingers then dashed upstairs to prepare .

"Director Xiu . . . would you join us for coffee?" Lu Shaoting feels that this young master has a lot of mystery in himself .

They talked about random things over coffee .

"Just a word of advice . If you guys can avoid marrying an actress, the better . It"s not easy, I tell ya . I am a famous director, the entertainment company president, but she still prefers to shoot out of town than to have breakfast with me on weekends . " he had a sad laugh .

Then as if he went overboard, Lu Shaoting added . "But if you fall in love with an actress, you should know that the great ones have a one true love, and that is their job . If you can live with that, then it"s fine . "

"Brothers! I"m ready now!" declared Lu Meimei, who just appeared at the doorway of the dining area .

They bid the older man goodbye and went out into the yard .

"Brothers, Monty will bring his SUV . You guys can leave your cars here to save us some parking s.p.a.ce . "

Just as she said so, a black Audi pulled up into the yard .

"Very well . " Manta smiled .

Dmitri just shrugged his shoulders .

"I call gunshot!" Lu Meimei exclaimed then hurried to the pa.s.senger seat .
