Married to his secret crush

The engagement between Jun Zixuan and that 'whatever her name was' was just a deal between the elders. The typical case of child betrothal.

Yu Mei did not care much about it now that it was all concluded. It did bother her...a little bit as she could already guess how troublesome it was going to be in the future.

But when you keep a flower like Jun Zixuan, there are bound to be some bees hovering around it.

"But I am the butterfly here who gets to suck the nectar from the flower," She blew at her well-manicured nails as she propped her head on her palm.

"Just look at you, Miss butterfly," ShI Luo settled on the couch beside her, "You are in love after so many years."

Yu Mei stiffened, "Don't phrase it like that."

"Why can't I? I have even thought of a proper headline," Shi Luo folded one of her legs on the other as she raised her hand exaggeratedly, "Ex-boyfriend turned brother-in-law."

"Shut up," The woman slapped her thighs.

Shi Luo laughed, "I hope nothing and no one comes between you and Jun Zixuan," She paused for a moment before adding, "What happened to Yu Family?"

"The so-called Master Yu and Madam Yu had a few criminal records written in their part as they were involved in some illegal deals in the past. They are in detention for now. I don't really care what happens to them."

"The entertainment industry is rather messy," Shi Luo sighed.

Yu Mei nodded, "The Dream Entertainment went back to the hands of its rightful owner."

"Li Shuang, right?" Shi Luo has seen the news. There were lots of information in the media as this matter has left the entertainment industry shaken, "But she is a Science student. Can she deal with business?"

"She can. She had chosen this major just to not upset Grandpa but she has been studying business in secret all this while. That's where her interest lies and the old man also accepted it," After his son's death and betrayal from his adopted son and biological daughter, the old man was left heartbroken which caused him to stay withdrawn and detached from the society which is why he was unaware of many events including his daughter's death.

"All's well that ends well," Shi Luo smiled. After all, it was Li Shuang's late father's dream to establish his foothold in the entertainment industry, and now his daughter was walking down the same path. It could give him peace and happiness wherever he was.

"Uh-huh. That's right."

"Mu Shen is asking about Shuang lately. Do they know each other that well?"

Yu Mei frowned before shaking her head, "They have only met once..." The time when Jun Zixuan barged inside the girls' dormitory.

"Don't tell me he is having some other intentions towards her?" Shi Luo laughed.

"Ask him to stay away from her," Yu Mei narrowed her eyes, "Shuang is not just my friend, she is also my cousin. After a guy like Zhu Boqin, the least I can do is keep a guy like Mu Shen away from him."

"Mu Shen is not that bad," Shi Luo defended her friend.

"He is not a saint, either."

"Do you think Jun Zixuan is a saint?" Shi Luo frowned, "His looks are capable of landing any woman on his bed. And not to mention his wealth. Do you think it isn't risky for you to be with him? Not only is he charming, but he is also the most desirable man across the globe even when he hasn't shown his face. When one day, his identity comes to light, he will be that male god every female will adore."

Yu Mei sighed, "They can adore him all they want but he is mine to keep."

"You are saying this because you know how much he loves you," Shi Luo smiled, "What if Mu Shen is serious?"

"I think your ideas are far-fetched but if Mu Shen is really after Li Shuang, then he will have to go through the Nirvana fire to purify himself before he can have my cousin."

Shi Luo blinked. Far fetched? It was rare for Mu Shen to be interested in talking about a woman yet not mentioning sleeping with her even once. Only time can tell where this is going.

At this time, Yu Jinhai opened the door of his bedroom and stepped outside, "Jie, why didn't you tell me that you are here?" He was surprised to see her.

Yu Mei opened her arms and the boy immediately moved towards her for a hug. "Your Sister Luo said that you were doing your homework so I did not want to disturb you."

"You will never disturb me," The boy smiled.

"Sweet talker."

"Brother-in-law said that girls like sweet-talking."

The corner of her lips twitched.

Shi Luo laughed as she stood up, "I have an appointment. I will leave now. You both can talk."

As soon as the woman left, the atmosphere between the siblings turned a bit tense as they stared at each other until Yu Jinhai could not bear his sister's piercing stare anymore and averted his gaze.

She grabbed his hands, "Look at me."

"Uh..." The boy guiltily lowered his head further.

"I said look at me," Her tone was stern this time causing the boy to raise his head timidly.

"Jie~" Yu Jinhai shrank back.

"I don't have a weak memory," She narrowed her eyes, "Did you think I will forget about it?"

The boy gulped. He really thought so.

"Now tell me Ah Jin, why did you lie back in the press conference that day? We both know that I did try to sell you to those people," If Jun Zixuan or Shi Luo were with him at that time, then she would have thought that they have convinced him to speak like that but the boy went there with Master Yu then why did he lie?

"I-"

"You are not fond of lying. You are always honest with every little thing. So, don't bother denying it. I want to know what made you lie."

"I didn't lie," The boy yelled all of a sudden leaving her stunned.
