Married to his secret crush

Chapter 281 - Morning, Love

"Thank you for what?" Jun Zixuan raised an eyebrow.

Mia smiled mysteriously, ''That's a secret,'' She believed everything that happened was fate. After all, it took Yu Mei one lifetime to realize her feelings for him.

Even though she never showed up, she was always inside her body in first life and she observed everything that happened outside without any restraint.

After staying in that dark room cast with spells for 7 lives, everything was new for her. She was very young when the little Mei had contracted her but with her memories of her previous lives, she had that mind of an adult so she looked at everything from distance.

From the Han siblings relying on each other to Han Jian Yu's struggles, they went to school, grew up, and so did she inside Yu Mei's body. Jun Zihao dated the teenager Mei and it ended up with heartbreak for her, affecting her in ways that she was never able to show and leaving her in a vulnerable mess.

Mia sighed as she glanced at the waves crashing near the glasshouse.

"Something on mind?"

"This place reminds me of my mother and father,'' Perhaps because she always heard from her mother that she met her father near a sea for the first time.

Those 20 years of her life, growing up with their love and adoration, doing anything she wanted, those years are special for her. Staying in that dark place for centuries, chained with a curse switched off her humanity, her heart, her mind, and she was only left with bloodlust in her mind until she killed that man, responsible for their misery, the ancestor of Hans. Still, the curse was not lifted off her, "Your wife is truly a blessing to me," It took her a long time to realize that.''

Jun Zixuan smiled as he sipped his coffee, ''She is. You want to go back to your world?"

"That world doesn't exist anymore. It's in the past. It has passed centuries ago. Now, you can barely find them in your history books," Mia whispered as she blinked rapidly, looking at the stars.

''Stop that. My wife is badly influenced by people like you,'' Jun Zixuan casually said.

"I am not crying or whining,'' Mia placed her coffee mug on the floor.

"Oh, did I mention that?' Jun Zixuan raised an eyebrow, ''You just admitted it.''

This sly fox. Mia glanced at him with squinted eyes, only to realize that there was something wrong with her wording.

''What?"

''I was wondering whether my mother had an illegitimate son somewhere. You could be my long-lost brother,'' this man was slyer than her.

Jun Zixuan pursed his lips, ''Tell me about her brother.''

''He is very cute. You will love him,'' She thought back to the times when Han Jian Yu will cook for her. A very cute man indeed.

What happened today...she did not blame him for it as it was her who was assuming things. Truth to be told, from the day he took her in, she had been creating troubles for him, in one way or another and she even messed with his women.

So, it was better that she overheard his thought about her today. For one, she realized how childish she had been. For another thing, it gave her a reality check. She had promised Yu Mei to stay away from her brother but then, she ended up staying at his place, wanting to take him as her concubine.

She would rather not have a harem if it meant to hurt Yu Mei. She realized that she had strayed from the original path that she had planned for herself. Fun, freedom, and Money. That's all she wanted in this life. Yes, that's it.

Jun Zixuan nodded. Well, initially, he was not that fond of kids but since Yu Jinhai is adorable, the same will go for her biological brother too.

If only he knew that only beauty-obsessed people like Mia will call Han Jian Yu 'cute'.

"I want to stay at Ren Mansion for a few days before I move out to my new house,'' Mia spoke after some time.

Jun Zixuan glanced at her.

...

''Ughh...'' Yu Mei groaned as she rolled to the other side of the bed. Feeling the coldness on the other side, she opened her eyes only to find it empty. Her expressions morphed into horror. ''What the heck!!"

It was just a dream?!

And now, Jun Zixuan has really left her?

And she spent the whole night dreaming about how would her confession go? No wonder...No wonder his reaction was neutral.

So, it was a dream.

"Damn..." She gathered all her courage to confess to him but it only happened in her dream. From where would she gather the courage to confess everything to him in real?

She sat up on the bed, terrified at thought of it, ''I should just run away and become a monk. I am not dealing with this-" She paused as she looked around.

The room was drastically different from the one in the Jun Manor. She slowly looked around the place before getting off the bed.

She grabbed the dark velvet curtains before pushing them to the side and sunlight invaded the partially dark room. The glass wall greeted her sight along with the vast sea, ''Monk subscription cancel....'' She sighed, pressing her forehead on the wall, relief washed over her entire body and heart.

So, it was not a dream.

Thank god.

She tilted her head upwards. Even the glass ceiling was covered with a layer of velvet. She walked towards the bedside table and her gaze landed on the small remote. Quite doubtfully, she pressed the 'off' switch and immediately, all the curtains were removed from the glass room and she was not able to see anything under the glaring sunlight. She quickly pressed the 'on' switch.

"Zixuan...?" As she looked around the room, her gaze landed on a small note on the floor. It must have been pushed there by her.

She squatted before picking it up.

'Morning, Love. Come downstairs after freshening up.'

The corner of her lips tugged up.

She giggled before kissing the note.

Yu Mei paused, realizing her weird actions, ''What am I, a teenager?" She sighed exasperatedly but ended up smiling at the sight of the cute little note again.
