Married to his secret crush

"T-Traumatized?" She pointed a finger at herself, "Me?" She rolled her eyes when he nodded, "Come on! I'm better than that. My hair was stuck inside this shirt and it was itchy suddenly. That's why I flinched."

Why would she be traumatized? She had Mia. And if worse came to worst and she could not contact Mia for some reason, then she could have simply killed that man. Although, the Beijing Authorities were stricter, but nothing that she could not deal with. 

Alas, Jun Zixuan made a timely entrance. She smiled, "I think playing the damsel in distress once in a while is not bad if I can have you save me over and over again."

He removed her hair from her shirt before bring them to one side, "That's what I've always said. You should rely more on me."

She laughed, "I don't mind relying on you now that we are officially dating." 

A dimple appeared on his cheek as he smiled as his fingers played with her hair.

She blanked out for a moment taking in his handsomeness before finally recovering her senses, "And if there comes a time, I'll back you up with everything I have. We can always count on each other." 

"Alright."

Although he said that, he would have never thought that she will stay true to her words somewhere in the future.

She inched closer to him only to find a pillow between them, "What is this here for?"

"You are injured."

So, he was worried that he might end up worsening it? How can someone be so ridiculously caring? 

"Well, you don't need to be worried about that. Your sleeping posture is not ugly, unlike me. We have slept together for so many times so I-" She paused when something dawned on her. If him coming to save her was not an illusion then what happened after was also…not an illusion?

'Help every inch of my body?'

'Make love?'

'All positions? All flavors of condoms?'

Looking at the horror written over her face, it took him a few seconds to comprehend the situation, "Your suggestion was not bad, by the way," The corner of his lips tugged up as he twirled her hair strands around his finger. 

Her face turned redder than a cooked lobster and she closed her eyes. 

"Shall we try it now, darling?" He leaned closer, his hot breath caressed her lips. 

She buried her face in her palms. How could she say these kinds of things to him?

"You are obviously lusting over me, are you not?" His teeth grazed past her neck and she shivered. 

Her breathing system messed up within a moment. And before she could end up fainting, he retreated. 

She peeked at him through the gap between her fingers.

He glanced at her waist for a moment before looking back at her face, "I'll get breakfast for you. And your bandages also need to be changed," He got off the bed and walked out of the room before it gets difficult to restrain himself. 

Yu Mei buried her face in the pillow, "Why do I always end up creating such embarrassing situations between us?"

She was discharged from the hospital later that day. Jun Zixuan carried her in a princess carry as he walked out of the hospital, "Is it hurting?"

She sighed, "How many times are you going to ask this? You are holding me so carefully, why would it hurt? You sound like a nagging old man, you know?"

"Can't help it," He opened the car door for her before helping her settle on the shotgun seat. He lowered her seat and helped her feet up.

She let him do as he pleased, "Where did you get this from?" She asked while pointed a finger at her panda-printed pyjama. 

"There was a shopping mall nearby."

"Yeah, they must love pandas," She rolled her eyes. 

"I do too." 

"You can't find peace unless you bicker with me?"

Jun Zixuan chuckled as he walked around the car before settling on the driver's seat. 

The last night's memories once again played in her mind causing a blush to spread across her cheeks but even if she was embarrassed, she was not going to show it on her face. She cleared her throat, "What about Ah Jin?"

"He is in school. Yesterday, he was asleep by the time everything happened. He was looking for us in the morning but Steward Gu told him that we are busy with work."

She propped her chin on her fist as she looked at him. 

"What are you thinking?" He could feel her constant gaze settled on him even without looking at her.

"You have everything under your control," She smiled. He brought her to the military hospital, took care of her, her brother, dealt with Zhu Boqin, and even shopped for her, "Once in a while, I will admit the truth. It is a shame for a perfect man like you to get entangled with someone as troublesome as me. I am like a magnet that attracts every single problematic thing towards it. I am impulsive too…"

He cut her off, "Even if you are trouble, you are my trouble."

She blinked, "That sounds so sweet. I never knew you love me so much."

"What to do? Since I've taken this upon myself, I'm going to suck up to it," The man shrugged. 

The smile on her face disappeared as she pinched his shoulder, "I just knew it. You have that in yourself to ruin my good mood. Humph!" 

Couldn't he just say he loved her? Humph! 

Jun Zixuan pursed his lips while trying his best to restrain his laughter so that he would not end up offending her further.

… 

At Mu Shen's place. 

"Thank you for yesterday," Li Shuang said as she stepped out of the guest room and glanced at the man's back. 

"That's nothing," Mu Shen waved his hand as he turned around. He froze when his gaze landed on the woman standing in front of him. 

Li Shuang was wearing that short Royal Blue bodycon dress from yesterday with her hair tied in a messy high bun, her face was bare of any makeup. But unlike yesterday, her dress was properly cleaned of the mud. 

"Is there anything wrong, Mr. Mu?" Li Shuang followed his gaze and looked at herself.
