Married to his secret crush

Chapter 50 - Is It A Luxury Party?

"Brother Xuan, I heard lots of rumors about you and your wife. I never asked you about it so that I would not end up rubbing salt on your wound but seems like rumors are just rumors after all. They can't be trusted. You both look quite happy together…" Gu Min spoke up looking at Yu Mei's retreating back.

"What did you hear?"

"You both have a very bad relationship. You don't like to see your wife's face and you…"

"Steward Gu seems to be fond of gossiping," Jun Zixuan coldly interrupted him.

Gu Min choked on the rest of his words. Sorry, bro.

Back in Beijing, Steward Gu who was supervising the servants sneezed.

"So, is it not true?" Gu Min asked.

Jun Zixuan did not reply.

Were those rumors true? They were.

He didn't like the sight of that woman from the very first day he saw her. It was not because she was ugly or fat.

The day when they got married, he went to the mansion to have a proper conversation with her regarding this contractual marriage. He wanted to let her know it was nothing but a relationship for the convenience of both parties so that she wouldn't expect anything more than that in the future.

But she looked at him with those dollar signs in her eyes and that lusty expression. That disgusting face and expression were still imprinted in his mind.

From that day onwards, she clung to him desperately while he was adamant about keeping that annoying fly away from himself.

Why was he so concerned about her when she fainted in the kitchen? And why could he not take it when she didn't talk or squabble with him for two days?

What changed now?

Was it him or is it her?

Back in the Presidential Suite.

Yu Mei sat on the bed while dangling her legs back and forth as she checked her Instagram account. But there were no updates from Xiang Le. It seems like the old man hasn't seen her text yet.

She threw the phone to the side before picking up a pillow and putting it on her lap.

So, Gu Min is Steward Gu's younger brother and also Jun Zixuan's secretary? "I know nothing about him…"

Despite her curiosity, she did not want to know anything about him because there were many secrets of her own that she would never share with him despite their friendship.

And it will only make her uncomfortable when she could not share anything about herself while knowing everything about him.

'Knock knock..'

"Come in.''

Jun Zixuan pushed opened the door and entered the room.

She raised an eyebrow when she saw his reflection in the mirror on the wall in front of her, "You don't need to knock before entering your own room, do you?" What a gentleman, she thought to herself.

The man cleared his throat, "Are you interested in parties?"

She excitedly stood up from the bed, so much so that her pillow fell on the floor, "Who is partying? Where is the party?"

His lips twitched. Looking at her sparkling eyes, he didn't need an answer to know whether she liked parties.

"There is a party nearby. Wanna join me?"

She walked towards him, "Is it a luxury party? As in…a high-end event?"

He leaned on the wall before raking his fingers through his hair, "According to what Gu Min said, it should be," Since he was not that interested in all these events or parties so he didn't have much idea about it, "Why do you ask?"

"I was just making sure that they have good food and wine," She replied nonchalantly. Only God knows when she will have to start dieting again. She could at least enjoy her life while there is a chance.

He was speechless. This woman sounded like he was not feeding her.

"I'll ask the staff to send your outfit to you. The makeup team will be here too…"

"Just send the outfit. I'll be fine without the makeup team," She interrupted him.

"Are you sure?" He stood straight.

She nodded.

"Fine," He turned around to leave the room.

"Wait…" She grabbed his hand.

He tilted his face to the side to look at the woman who walked towards him.

Under his questioning glance, she stood right in front of him, "You're not afraid I'll embarrass you?" She asked with a bit of hesitation on her face.

His brows bumped together, "Why would you think so?'' He asked the woman who was looking at him with a concerned face.

"You seem to be a big shot," The man had his private jet, he lived in an extravagant place like Ren Mansion so he is no ordinary person, she thought to herself. Yu Mei sighed, "Look… As long as you are not blind, you can see that right now, neither do I have looks nor status. Not to mention that there are tags of an illegitimate daughter, man-chaser ugly woman, and scheming bitch hanging above my head."

He flicked her forehead.

"Ouch…Brute... What was that for?" She rubbed the spot which instantly turned red.

"Why are you badmouthing yourself? Shouldn't you be a bit confident in yourself?"

Hell, I was badmouthing the previous owner. She squinted. She is a confident woman all over but the truth is truth. Looking at her current bulging figure in the mirror everyday, she did not have the heart to console herself.

Things will not remain like this for long but right now…

He poked her cheeks, "To tell you the truth, you do resemble a panda."

She swatted away his hand. Did he think he can help her gain confidence by saying such things?

Looking at her accusing eyes, he chuckled, "Even if you are a panda, that makes you a national treasure. Moreover, I find pandas cute. So shouldn't you be a little positive about things?"

"Are you calling me cute?" Her lips tugged up slightly, "I am just worried that taking me as a female partner will drag your reputation in the mud."

He walked backward, keeping his gaze on her all the while. Just as his hand reached the doorknob, he smiled at her, "When did I say that I am taking you as a female partner? You are just extra luggage."

"_"

Her eyes widened, "Jun Zixuan, you… you are despicable," She grabbed the first thing that came to her hand before throwing it at him.

His deep masculine laughter resounded in the suite as the man easily dodged the flying object. He pulled open the door and walked out leaving her fuming all alone.
