Married to his secret crush

Chapter 20 - Extra Luggage

Yu Mei glanced at the man, "Whose name did you just say?" she was pretty sure that her hearing was not defective.

Given that, did her brother somehow got to know that she is alive? Did he come here to find her? The conjectures in her mind were pretty impossible since she never once stepped out of this villa after being reborn.

But she still wanted to believe them. She was harboring these thoughts despite knowing that they could not be true.

Jun Zixuan tilted his head to look at the woman who glancing at him with a hopeful gaze. "I said Jian Yu.'' The expression on her face somehow irked him.

Her hopeful gaze turned into a happy one. She did not mishear it. As she opened her mouth to speak, he interrupted her, "I don't care about your private life or the men you are involved with. But as long as we are not divorced, infidelity should be out of your options. If you fail to control yourself, then there will be consequences," He casually said but his voice was firm.

Yu Mei blanked out for a second before her expressions became calm.

She walked toward the man, "Oh? Seems like you care about the rules of marriage and your reputation very much. But I am young and active, my hormones are overflowing. My adoration for you is deeper than the sea and higher than the sky but you don't care about me. So, I prefer those red spot districts and take those male prostitutes as your substitute. Ah yes, about your green hat, you should hide it properly yeah?" She said standing right in front of him.

No matter how she tried to be nice to him, he always tested her limits again and again intentionally or unintentionally.

And she came to terms with the fact that he was no longer that sweet, shy, and gentle Jun Zixuan from her university days.

"_" Her words left Steward Gu stunned yet again. Adoration? Where is your adoration for him? Why am I not able to see it?

Jun Zixuan stood up from the chair before turning around to look at her. Steward Gu immediately picked up the black suit jacket from the chair before assisting the man to wear it.

A man in black, especially one with the otherworldly looks like Jun Zixuan was a sight to see. Those specks of gold in his chestnut brown eyes would glow with the reflection of lights.

He took a step closer to her before speaking, "Go ahead, do your thing. If you end up in police station, I won't bail you out," His gaze then traveled down from her face to neck then below her waist. In a split second, his gaze was back to her face.

"In case there are infections or cervical cancer or such STDs, make sure you can afford the medical bills," His voice was like that of a caring and gentle husband but those words couldn't be more vicious.

Yu Mei could feel the heat rising her neck. "You…You…" Speechless!

"Jian Yu, Max and if there is someone else too, put them on your waiting list for now. Go find them after the divorce."

So, in the morning, he did hear that when she mentioned Max, "I.." As she took a step towards him, she lost her footing.

Another time to curse her fat body. But her legs slipped so fast that she couldn't even curse properly. Her eyes snapped shut as she waited for the pain to come.

One second.

Two seconds.

Three seconds.

But the expected pain never came as a strong arm wrapped around her waist.

She opened one of her eyes followed by another only to find Jun Zixuan holding her. Although his hand couldn't encircle her thick waist but she could say he was pretty strong given how he managed to balance her heavy body with one hand only.

Despite their dissonance and conflicts, he helped her.

Touched, she opened her mouth, "Thank…"

'Thud.'

The words of gratitude had yet to escape her mouth when she fell on the floor on her butt. "Ssss…" The splitting pain down almost brought tears in her eyes.

Jun Zixuan nonchalantly took out his phone before scrolling through some documents.

Steward Gu was standing there pretending to be a decoration. Since he was not ordered to leave, he could only suck it up and stay here. Looks like the couple has not united as Madam wanted.

One was like the hottest fire while the other was the coldest ice. The effects were equally deadly, burning and numbing one's senses.

Looking at the pitiful sight of Yu Mei, he walked towards her before extending a hand.

"Thank you," she smiled at him before placing her palm in his hand.

Steward Gu dragged her up, "It's nothing, Miss Yu."

She nodded at him. She never thought she was going to feel so pathetic in her life that she needed support to stand up.

She walked towards Jun Zixuan before patting his shoulder lightly. The man turned around to look at her.

"Acting all high and mighty right now, did I tell you that you professed your longing to me yesterday? Thinking that I am your first love, you couldn't stop clinging to me," she coldly said, "This morning, you were licking my cheeks like you just tasted the most delicious delicacy. I was sleepy and muddle-headed, would you blame me for mistaking you as the Irish wolfhound I once had? Ah, I had named it Max."

"_"

Jun Zixuan walked towards her, "Did you just compare me to a dog?" his voice dangerously calm.

"Was that the only thing you heard?" she retorted.

"Don't overestimate your worth just because I mistook you for someone else under the influence of alcohol," He narrowed his eyes.

She scoffed.

"Master, we are getting late," Steward Gu interrupted before a world war could start.

"Let's go," Jun Zixuan nodded at him.

Yu Mei turned around to look at the Steward Gu with pleading eyes, "Could you please drop me somewhere?" she asked.

Steward Gu was speechless. Did she put him on spot on purpose?

She continued speaking, "I don't have money right now…I can't afford cabs. Just drop me for this once," She has been focusing on working-out and diets to lose weight and had yet to open up a source of money for herself.

"What about the card I gave?" Jun Zixuan coldly looked at her.

"It fell in the trash accidentally," She replied without looking at him.

He indeed gave a gold card to the previous owner but the stupid girl handed it to her family. He must've known it already.

Before the man could say something, Steward Gu looked at him, "Master, can we please take Miss Yu?"

Jun Zixuan turned around before walking towards the door. Just as they thought that he rejected it, the man paused and said without turning back, "Only this time," he added, "I don't like extra luggage," he murmured before walking out.

Yu Mei was speechless. Who are you calling extra luggage?
