Married to his secret crush

Chapter 271 - Open The Door

Inside a Glass Villa situated in the distant islands of Amaranthine, Jun Zixuan sat on the barstool as he glanced at the bottle of wine in his hand. The moonlight shone on his face through the glass walls around him.

He raked his fingers through his hair, forbidding them from falling on his face but they were as stubborn as her.

Just the mention of her in his mind was enough to give him a flashback of all that happened.

The decoration on the terrace, the way she had her arms wrapped around Jun Zihao's waist, everything kept playing in his mind over and over again.

It was not the doubt inside his head.

He was sure about that. Neither was it his insecurity because he was sure about the kind of woman she was but everything about it felt wrong to him. Was he really that hard to trust?

'Crash'

He tossed the bottle as the glass crashed to pieces, the red liquid staining the floor. He stood up from the barstool and walked towards the floor-to-ceiling glass wall as he blankly stared at the moon.

Was it everything he deserved for the way he treated her in the beginning? For everything, he did to her, for all his cold remarks, and rude behavior, was this the punishment that she has decided for him? But he thought he made up for all his past mistakes.

He leaned his forehead on the glass. His heart ached. The feeling of it was so terrible like someone had clenched that damn organ in their fist.

The thought of her with another man…his eyes flashed with rage and he closed them.

"Hey, open the door. Where is the entrance? Why can't I find it?"

'Am I so screwed that I have started hallucinating her now?' He pursed his lips as he turned around before leaning back on the glass.

'Knock Knock'

"Even if you love glasshouse, shouldn't you leave a normal door here? How am I supposed to come inside?"

His eyes snapped open as he turned around to look at the woman who had her face pressed on the glass, eyes enlarged, nose tightly pressed on the glass, mouth forming a pout, she surely resembled a Disney character with a high degree of curiosity at the moment.

Her eyes lit up the moment he turned around, ''Is there a window I can climb inside from?" She blinked, "Or this glass wall will crack to let me in, huh?"

His eyes flickered slightly as he glanced at her emotionlessly.

As he walked towards what looked like the living room, she sighed in relief. Looks like he is going to get the keys to open the door.

Contrary to her high expectations, the man picked up a remote control from the coffee table, and in the next second, the curtains slid down from the ceiling as they draped over the glass walls on all four sides.

Her jaws dropped as she stood there with her palms still pressed on the glass.

Yu Mei knocked on the glass door, ''Zixuan, open the door....or whatever the hell this is called,'' She kicked the glass, "Had I been a rude person, I would have broken down these glass walls to barge inside but I have manners. You really should appreciate it,'' She said while looking at the ground for some pebbles. One might not work but twenty-thirty of them would be enough to make a large hole to get inside.

But it must be her rotten luck that she did not see a single pebble nearby as there were the pavements around the glasshouse.

When she was in the chopper, Steward Gu was explaining the location to the pilot and she was in disbelief.

She never knew that this extravagant glasshouse and this isolated island belonged to Jun Zixuan. Everything about this place was so dreamy, from the glowing fireflies to the beautiful flowers, the twinkling stars, and the bright moon but she was just not in a position to admire beauty right now.

Not when he was not letting her inside his house.

''Zixuan, you told me last time that I will be the one kicking you out the next time we fight. And…that what's yours is also mine…" She rubbed her arms. In her hurry to come here, she forgot to bring her jacket and she was still wearing that short black dress that she had chosen for their date.

There was no response from him.

"Are you going back on your words now?" She sat on the floor before leaning back on the glass. The curtains were so thick that she could not even get a glimpse of him. Who does such weird architecture? The corner of her lips twitched. They should have at least left a window or an open roof so that she could have climbed inside.

"You did not sign the property papers so they still belong to me," His voice was emotionless and cold, reminding her of the time when they used to clash with each other about every single thing.

Her eyes lit up. Something is better than nothing. At least, he responded. She thought he was going to give her that damn cold silent treatment forever.

"I will sign. I will sign everything you want. Take me inside now. Pretty please~" She knocked on the glass again but this time there was no response once again, "Zixuan, it is so cold here…" She whined, inwardly cringing at her own coy tone.

She blinked as she glanced at the vast sea. Thought she was telling the truth but a little exaggeration will be alright, right? "I might freeze while sitting here. I am one second away from losing my breath..." She shivered 'audibly'.

'Click'

The glass door opened and she almost fell back if not for the strong pair of legs behind her. She grabbed his palm and pushed herself to her feet, "Thank you,'' Just as she leaned closer to kiss his lips, he tilted his face to the side causing the kiss to land on his cheek.

''You can sit inside. I'll get a helicopter for you,'' He emotionlessly said as he turned around.

She tightened her grip on his hand, "You won't even talk to me now?'' Her eyes glazed as she blinked, "Are you that eager to send me back?''

He did not speak.

"Zixuan, listen to me. Give me a chance to explain-''

"Explain?" He turned around, his eyes were menacingly dark.

She flinched at the harshness of his tone.

"You want to explain?" He stepped closer to her and she stepped back, her back collided against the wall while her grip on his hand gradually loosened.
