The Devil who devoured Snow White

She was supposed to be depressed but upon seeing the man in front of her, her eyes brightened and the weight in her chest was instantly lifted.

Oh, poor guy. Poor, poor guy. He didn't know that meeting this woman was going to turn his world upside down!

What a handsome man… Lu Mengjie thought. Never mind crying because of what happened earlier that day, she could just cry her heart out later. She can't waste this moment! If she left this godly-looking man tonight, it would end up becoming one of her greatest regrets! This man… she must recruit him!

The man in front of her was like an ice statue wearing a designer suit. He stood tall in front of her, waiting for her to move aside. His strong jawline was clean-shaven. He has an utterly serious look in him. His curls were midnight black, his ice-cold eyes were dark and it was staring dangerously at her, like a black hole that was pulling him to her. He was beyond perfect. She has never encountered such a panty-dropping beauty other than her father and uncle Lu Yifeng. Even the men she has couldn't compare to him. Such beauty was inhumane.

He was quiet, but not out of painful shyness. It was a reservedness, like a conscious choice to observe the lie of the land before he got involved. Seeing that she was not planning on moving aside, he opened his mouth and his deep melodic voice was heard next, "excuse me?"

The side of her lips curled up as she smiled at the stunning man. "Ah, you must be the guy who's going to get me a drink."

His expressionless icy face cracked when the side of his lips twitched upwards. He was used to women trying to get his attention but he has never been approached this way. She may be beautiful but that didn't mean he was attracted to her although… the look in her eyes somehow caught his attention. Her eyes were beautifully twinkling like stars.

The nerve of this woman to shamelessly hit on him…

He moved his feet, taking a few steps forward towards her and at the same time, leaving the elevator. He may seem like a cold person but the moment a smirk appeared on his lips, his captivating godly look turned devilish. "But you look like you were about to leave."

When Lu Mengjie saw the domineering smirk that was plastered on his lips, she felt her heart jump. It only made her more excited. No, he was not a creature from heaven! He must be a creature from hell… or maybe an inbred from both! It was illegal! Why hasn't she heard of such beauty all her life? Where in the hell was this unlawful creature hiding?! He smelled sinfully good too!

She gulped down her saliva as she snapped out from her adoration towards the man. "What? No way I'm leaving. I was waiting for you," she said as an excuse as she grinned. She turned and hugged his arm as she led him to the bar.

The man looked at their entwined arms. He didn't like being touched but at that moment, for some reason, he couldn't pull his arm away from her hold. Instead, he followed her lead. There was something about her that he couldn't ignore. Women around him would usually act shy and innocent whenever they tried to approach him but this innocent-looking woman was straightforward, honest with what she wanted. It only made her look more charming in his eyes.

Upon sitting on one of the bars stools with him, Lu Mengjie turned to the bartender and ordered strawberry daiquiri before she returned her gaze back to him. " So may I know the name of the man who's buying me the drink?"

After ordering his drink as well, he looked at her and replied, "ladies first." If he told her who he was, he was sure that she would recognize him in an instant and yet, he still couldn't help but look forward to what kind of reaction she would give him.

She had the same thought as him. If she told him her name first, would he treat her differently? "How about we say it at the same time?" She suggested.

It was an interesting suggestion. "Alright."

"At the count of three," she grinned at him.

He just gave her a nod as his reply. Lu Mengjie began counting to three, "one… two… three…"

"Yong Liwei."

"Lu Mengjie."

As they heard each other's names, their eyes widened in surprise at the same time.

"You're…

my uncle?!" She exclaimed, baffled at the sudden revelation.

He was not expecting the words she just said since he was thinking of another thing. Her name. "H-huh?"

"Ah! Wait. I can be mistaken." She quickly took back what she said earlier. "My grandmother is also a Yong but there are some people with that family name since it's a common family name so you might not be related."

"Are you a member of the prestigious Lu family?" He asked directly, this time, the playfulness in his were eyes gone.

"Yes, I am," she replied. "How about you? Are you a member of the Yong family that's connected with the Xia family?"

He paused for a second. Only a few people knew the real connection between the two families after all. "You said your grandmother is a Yong."

"Yes. Her name is Yong Sining. She married into the Xia family and had children. Xia Sinian and Xia Meilin. Xia Sinian is my father."

Her father? Yong Liwei furrowed his brows in confusion. "Aren't you supposed to be… the only daughter of Lu Xian Yu?"

"He is also my father," she grinned proudly at him. "Xia Sinian is my papa and Lu Xian Yu is my dad. To put it simply, my mom was pregnant of me when she married her first husband. After she became a widow, she married my real dad."

"I never thought that your family will be this complicated," he chuckled in amusement.

"Maybe to others but to us, it's not," she shrugged.

"Then you must be related to Xia Liqin. Your half-brother, right?"

Lu Mengjie didn't like it whenever other people were addressing them as half-siblings but she had no choice but to get used to it since it was the truth. Although at that moment, she thought of giving her brother a good scolding. How dare he not tell her of this man's existence?!

"Enough about our families. Let me get straight to the point."

"And that is?"

"I want you to be my man. I want you to join my harem."
