Married to his secret crush

He leaned closer to her as if a spell was activated. 

Just as their lips were inches apart, Mia stood up as she patted off the sand from her robe, "If Her Highness has been just so-so, why is Mr. Han leaning in for a kiss?" She eyed the man teasingly. 

A certain Mr. Han fumed inwardly, somewhat in disbelief. It was clearly her who... "Why would I kiss you? There was a something on your face," He pushed himself to his feet as he glanced at her nonchalantly. 

Mia's lips twitched. It seems like he really... She let out a regretful sigh in her heart. A pity that such a handsome man has not got good taste. 

Han Jian Yu, on the other hand, was disdaining his previous actions in his mind. The hell he was doing, leaning in for a kiss. 

It has indeed been a long time since he got laid. Ever since he came to Beijing, he has been busy with works and the women that came to his penthouse were all scared shitless by...

An adorable baby fox's face flashed in his mind. 

Noticing that he has gone silent, Mia snapped her fingers in front of his eyes, ''What are you doing here at this time?" She found herself feeling rather suffocated after her dream and she came over here but what was he doing here at this hour?

''I was here for whatever you were here,'' He replied with a straight face. 

The corner of her lips tugged up, ''I was sitting here, waiting for a shooting star so that I can wish for a few handsome men to fool around with. Were you having the same kind of thoughts?" She shook her head, letting out a deep sigh, ''Mr. Han has got some heavy preferences.''

His eyes darkened. This woman... What material was she made of? 

Thinking about her emotional condition earlier when he came here, his lips thinned slightly. If he had not seen it, he would have believed her words from how serious she sounded. 

''Thank you.''

Mia was surprised, ''For what?"

''For helping my sister. Although I don't know the details of how you helped her but I am still grateful to you,'' While he was talking with Yu Mei today, he had casually mentioned Mia but his sister just casually told him how much she had helped her in the past. 

And he knew that she might hide things from him at times but whenever she told him something, she would never lie about it. 

Mia waved her hand, ''Don't mention,'' How did she help her exactly? It was just both of them relying on each other at that time. 

Moreover, Yu Mei had done more than enough for her. 

He raised an eyebrow, ''And I had to apologize to you.''

Mia's eyes widened, disbelief apparent on her face. A-Apologize?

She raised her hand and pinched his cheeks hard, ''Tell me, are you an impostor?"

Han Jian Yu's face scrunched up as he swatted away the indecent hand tugging at his cheek, ''Why would you say that?" 

''Han Jian Yu would never apologize to anyone,'' Mia mumbled to herself as she shook her head. He is arrogant to bones. 

''You seem to know me very well?"

She cleared her throat, ''Heard it from your sister.''

He glanced at her suspiciously. Why would his sister say something like that about him to a person who was completely unrelated to him?

But then, women were rather undecipherable. 

''What were you apologizing for?" Mia asked while tucking the loose strands of her hair behind her ear. 

''I was rather rude and unnecessarily suspicious when we met in Ren Mansion,'' He tucked his hand in his pocket as he glanced at her. 

Mia quietly looked into his eyes for a moment before turning around, ''I don't accept such half-hearted apologies.''

The corner of his lips tugged up as he walked after her, ''What else do you want me to do then?"

''Some good food would do. I am rather craving it...'' It has been a long time since she ate the food he made. 

He raised an eyebrow, ''How do you know that I can cook?"

I have eaten it countless times in my other form. ''Your sister always praises the food you make,'' came her reply. 

''Well, then Miss Neighbor, I am inviting you to dinner tomorrow.''

''Mia,'' She softly said, ''You can call me Mia,'' The corner of her lips tugged up as she ascended the stairs without looking at him. 

Han Jian Yu folded his arms in front of his chest as he glanced at her retreating back, his lips tilted up. 

Suddenly, his brows tugged together. Mia? 

Her name coincided with the model's name that he was looking for. 

Was it a coincidence or the world was just that small? 

His eyes narrowed into slits. 

...

Headquarters of Rosette. 

Yu Mei glanced at the files splayed on the coffee table before looking at the one in her hand, ''I want a detailed report on this one,'' She handed the file to an employee, ''...In 30 minutes. You can leave now.'' 

The employee cried in his heart. 30 minutes? Are they even humans? 

But he did not dare to protest in fear. Lately, their President had been firing employees with her eyes closed. He did not want to be the next one to lose his job. He bowed as he turned around and left. 

Yu Mei closed her eyes as she leaned back on the swivel chair, her hand grabbed the paperweight as she slowly knocked it on the desk while her mind reeled with various thoughts.

'Knock Knock'

''Come in.'' 

She opened her eyes and pushed herself to her feet, ''Director Xiang.'' 

''President,'' The old man nodded at her, ''You seem quite disturbed.''

''It can't get past your sharp gaze as usual,'' The corner of her lips tugged up. 

''Of course not, Lass,'' The old man laughed. 

Her lips twitched. Initially, this old man changed the way of addressing her after knowing her identity. But when she told him to not be so formal, he was back to his 'Lass' mode. 

''Is there something wrong?" 

She pointed her hand towards the chair, ''Take a seat first.''
