Married to his secret crush

The bright rays of sunshine invaded through the gap between the curtains illuminating the small yet cozy room. Her eyelashes fluttered slowly like the flapping of butterfly wings as she opened her eyes. 

Only then did she noticed the man sleeping beside holding her in his arms. The events of last night flashed in her mind and her face turned red. 

Embarrassing moments deserve to be forgotten fast but she could not forget it at all. How annoying was the fact that all this while, she was being jealous of herself? The woman who he had always wanted to kiss was her and no one else. 

While they were in Shanghai, he had kissed her while she was asleep. When he told her this, she found it entirely unbelievable but then again, she was sure he won't lie to her about such things. 

Looking at him, she had the urge to punch the ridiculously handsome man. If he liked her for so long, why did he even pretend as he saw her as a friend? This sly man even threw away the pillow barriers she created every time they slept together. No wonder they always woke up in each other's embrace the next morning. She wouldn't have known it if he did not tell her. And he even kicked her out of the mansion to sort his feelings. He could have simply confessed to her.

She bit his cheek. Humph!

As his skin turned red, she raised her hand towards his cheek and stroked the spot she just bit with her thumb gently. This man was tricking her all this time but she still could not even get angry at him at all. 

If he had confessed to her at that time, then she might have packed her luggage and run away. 

Falling in love with him was never difficult but accepting it was a tough long process. And now that she had accepted that she was so in love with this man, she knew there was no going back.

Her fingers traced down to his prominent jaws but in the next second her hand was grabbed by the man who she thought was sleeping. 

Jun Zixuan opened his eyes as he looked at her. 

"You're awake?"

The man nodded slowly. 

"Since when?"

"From the time you bit me," He liked the current expression on her face. He had always liked it. That somewhere between 'I am embarrassed but I won't show it' expression which she will have on her face when she was around him.

"So, what were you pretending to sleep for?" She leaned closer to him and wrapped her arm around his waist. She had craved his hugs from the first time they hugged but at that time she did not have the license. Now that they were official, she could hug him as she wanted without feeling shy about it. 

"Wanted to see how you will take advantage of me this time."

Her eyes widened. This time? "Don't tell me you were awake when I kissed you?" Her face turned red like a cooked lobster. 

He raised an eyebrow and glanced at her teasingly, "It is rare for my wife to take such initiatives. How could I bear to miss it?" 

She buried her face in his chest. This was so embarrassing. Can the bed please crack? Can I please be buried under it?

His deep masculine laughter reverberated in the room as his chest rumbled, she could feel the vibrations against her cheeks and her heart raced unknowingly.

He hugged her tightly and she made sure to not look at him at all. "Don't you have to go back now?" She asked.

He paused and distanced her from himself before looking at her face, "Mei..."

"Yes?"

"Will you go with me back to Ren Mansion now?" 

His hopeful gaze made her want to smile but she suppressed it all so well, "No."

"But your final exams are over. You can't stay here forever."

She raised an eyebrow, "I'll just go look for an apartment. I'll not go with you."

His expressions fell slightly as he sighed. 

"Pfft..." It was impossible to restrain her laughter looking at his puppy face, "Alright, I'm going with you. Stop looking at me like that."

His eyes lit up and in the next second, she found her lips captured by his. 

This opportunist!

...

Ren Mansion.

"Where are the staff?" Yu Mei was sitting atop the kitchen counter with her legs dangling back and forth as she watched him cooking for her. 

"I gave them a day off," The man replied without looking at her. 

"Oh," No wonder she did not see a single servant since the time they came here, "What about Steward Gu?" 

"He went on a holiday."

She blinked. Didn't that mean they were all alone in the mansion?

"You don't have to go to work?" 

"Working from home." 

"I am hungry," Sitting amidst the aroma of the delicious food he was cooking, she could barely wait to eat. 

He paused for a moment before grabbing a fork and getting a well-cooked tender piece of meat from the pan. He blew on it before taking it near her mouth, "Try it."

She opened her mouth and eagerly took it in her mouth. Her eyes glittered as the flavorful piece of meat almost melted in her mouth, "Ummm~So good..." She praised after gulping it down.

"Want another one?"

"Uh-huh.''

After having their lunch, the couple went to the theatre in the Mansion to watch a movie. The air conditioner had chilled the whole place landing them under the same blanket in each other's arms as they sat on the high-density sponge double-seater recliner.

While the husband....well... the boyfriend was very happy with the arrangement, the girlfriend was a bit frustrated because an indecent pair of hand kept sneaking here and there on her body.

She glared at him, "Are you here to watch the movie or take advantage of me?" She turned to the side so that she was properly facing him. 

The blanket fell off her body gathering around her waist, revealing her curves through the small white crop top she had donned herself in.
