Magic Doctor CEO Lady's Humble Husband (Fade Chen)
Chapter 817

"Melanie, you must be hungry. Let's go down and grab a bite!" Fade changed the topic.

Melanie smiled at Fade suggestively and asked, "What's wrong? Don't you want to stay here with me for a little longer?"

"Well, well, of course, I..." Fade was at a loss for words and could only cough awkwardly.

"All right, I'm not going to tease you anymore. Let me change and we can grab some food downstairs," Melanie chuckled alluringly. She went through the bags of clothes that Fade bought and picked a new set of clothes to change in the bathroom.

The bathroom was covered in an opaque glass and the lights inside were on. From the outside, one could not see what was happening inside. However, the outline of Melanie's figure as she took out her clothes was obvious.

The vague scene was very suggestive. Fade's nose felt a little warm and his heart started to race.

A few minutes later, Melanie emerged from the bathroom after changing into a new set of clothes.

Fade immediately turned his head away to avoid being caught. He explained, "Melanie, I swear I didn't see anything."

Melanie giggled when she heard this and asked, "Fade, I didn't say anything. Why are you so nervous? Were you peeking just now?"

"No, no!" Fade hurriedly waved his hand and drank a glass of water in order to cover up his panic.

Melanie smiled coquettishly and replied, "Alright, I was joking. If you want, all you have to do is ask and I'll change in front of you gladly. You don't have to peek."

Fade choked on the water when he heard Melanie.

Melanie laughed bewitchingly when she spotted that. She tidied up her hair and continued, "Fade, what do you think people will say if they found out that Master Fade Chen, who was extremely domineering when he suppressed the Yue family just now, is actually a very shy little boy?"

"I'm not a little boy!" Fade defended.

"Is that so? If you're not a little boy, then does it mean that... You're a big boy?" Melanie asked suggestively as she batted her eyelashes. She emphasized the word 'big' as she licked her red lips. Fade felt that he might not be able to control himself if things went on like this. He stepped out of the room hurriedly and uttered, "Melanie, you've changed, so let's head downstairs for a meal!" Melanie giggled and reached out to hold Fade's arm. She concluded, "Alright, let's go."

They took the elevator down to the hotel restaurant and ordered a few dishes with a bottle of red wine. They began to dig in slowly when the food arrived.

A few hours passed after they finished eating and it was almost evening.

Fade and Melanie walked out of the hotel together. He asked, "Melanie, where do you want to go next?"

Melanie replied smilingly, "Why don't we go and catch a movie? I haven't been to the cinema ever since I took over Emerald Plum Jewels."

"Alright, give me a minute to check where's the closest cinema!" Fade replied as he took out his mobile phone and began to search.

"Melanie, I found it. It's just around the corner," Fade said to Melanie when they heard a ringtone.

Melanie looked down and realized that it was her mobile phone. She took out her mobile phone and immediately picked up when she saw the number. She called, "Mom!" Rosy said something over the line and the smile suddenly vanished from Melanie's face. Her face darkened instantly and she asked, "Mom, what did you say?"

"So what if they came? I will not change my mind. Besides, don't they know what's going on here?"

"I understand. Okay, I'll be right there, so don't cry."

After that, Melanie hung up the call and said to Fade apologetically, "Fade, I'm sorry, mind if we take a rain check on the movie? I have to go back to the villa." Fade immediately stood up and asked, "Melanie, what happened?"

Melanie explained, "My mom called and told me that my Grandpa, Uncle, and my Dad were on the way here. They want me to go back to the villa and explain why I called off the wedding." Fade could not help frowning. It immediately occurred to him that the Yu family must have just heard the news about the wedding being called off. Hence, they hurried over to question Melanie. However, did they not know that he defeated the Yue family? Could it be that they were still willing to marry off their daughter to the Yue family under such circumstances?

Fade was puzzled and worried at the same time. Fade followed Melanie and concluded, "Melanie, I'll go with you." "Okay!" Melanie nodded. The two of them hailed a taxi and rushed to the Yu family's villa. In the taxi, Melanie gave him a brief introduction to her family.

Melanie's grandfather, Cyril, was the one who started a small workshop and built the business to where it was currently. He was the pillar of the Yu family and had absolute authority in the family.

The absolute authority represented Old Master Yu's ability and power. However, it had some consequences too. In the Yu family, almost no one dared to go against Old Master Yu or his orders. Therefore, Old Master Yu would not listen to other people's suggestions. This was not too much of a problem in the past.

However, the business world had seen rapid developments and Old Master Yu's strong stance made him look stubborn and rigid.

The Yu family had many business problems that were caused by Old Master Yu's stubbornness. It resulted in the lack of adaptation and in the end, they began to decline.

Recently, Melanie took over Emerald Plum Jewels and the headquarter was in Capital City. It developed well because it was away from the Yu family, hence Old Master had very little control over it. To put it simply, Old Master Yu was a dictator in the Yu family.

Meanwhile, Melanie's uncle, Bache Yu, was the current head of the Yu family. He was in charge of a lot of the Yu family's businesses.

As for Melanie's father, Hale Yu, he was a son that had a weak character. He dared not argue with his father and brother, so his influence in the family was limited.

The hotel was not far from the villa. Shortly after, they arrived at the gate of the villa.

Fade and Melanie got out of the car and headed for the villa.

At the gate of the villa, Melanie's mother Rosy looked anxious. When she spotted Fade and Melanie, she hurried to greet them. She called, "Melanie, you're back!" "Mr. Chen, you, you're here too." Ever since she witnessed Fade's strength at the wedding, Rosy no longer knew how she should treat him.

Fade nodded and gave her a gentle smile. He greeted, "Nice to meet you, Auntie!"

Melanie seized her mother's arm and asked hurriedly, "Mom, what's going on? What do you mean when you say that Grandpa and the others are rushing over here?"
