Married to his secret crush-Chapter 389 - WHY?

''Yes, Young Mistress. I came here after looking into the matter at that construction site where you went,'' Steward Gu said.

Yu Mei knew Jun Zixuan must have sent him there.

''You want to say something else?" Yu Mei glanced at him questioningly when she noticed him hesitating.

''Young Miss is not back yet,'' Steward Gu said.

"Mia... is not back to Ren Mansion?" Yu Mei glanced at Steward Gu.

Jun Zixuan also looked at the man when he heard this.

Steward Gu nodded. He bowed to them again before leaving.

''Do you think she wants to go into hiding again?" Yu Mei glanced at Jun Zixuan.

''It's possible,'' Jun Zixuan brought the trolley closer to the bed before shifting the food trays nearer.

''So, what is she hiding from?" Yu Mei glanced at Jun Zixuan, appearing quite curious.

Jun Zixuan cleared his throat, ''How would I know?"

''Brother and her... they have got something going on, haven't they?" She eyed him meaningfully.

Jun Zixuan paused as he looked at her 'I know it all' face. He sighed, ''How do you know?"

''Am I blind?" She rolled her eyes at him, ''Mia has been crushing over brother since a long time. And the time we played truth and dare at our place, it was pretty obvious that he treated her differently. Not to mention the fact that they were neighbors during that time so I was certain that sparks would fly. I just did not expect things to get this intense.''

"Intense?" Jun Zixuan held the bowl of soup in his hand and picked up a spoonful of it. Blowing it twice, he brought it closer to her mouth.

She sipped it slowly, feeling its warmth soothing her slightly aching throat, ''What I mean is...'' She picked up the fork and knife before arranging the plate and feeding him.

''I can eat by myself,'' he said.

''I know how to feed,'' she replied, holding the spoon in front of his mouth.

''I am not a child,'' He frowned.

She glanced at the bowl of soup in his hand before looking at his face, ''Then, do I look like 5?" Just as he opened his mouth to say something, she stuffed the food into his mouth. Since she was being fed, then she will feed him in his own way.

Jun Zixuan did not know whether to laugh or cry.

''So, what I mean is... I did not expect them to be at this stage.''

Jun Zixuan raised an eyebrow questioningly.

Yu Mei glanced at him, ''If I am not wrong, they are responsible for each other's dark circles and they are just running away from each other,'' She paused before asking, ''Say, did I get it right?"

Jun Zixuan nodded, ''I should have told you before,'' He followed her gaze and noticed her looking at the chocolate pastry on the tray.

"It's okay. I know Mia did not want to let me know about this and you did well. I would have been overthinking about it by now,'' Her face scrunched up slightly.

He picked up the plate before bring a spoonful a pastry to her mouth, ''I was about to say this but you noticed it beforehand.''

She shook her head, ''They are adults. They will handle it.''

''They don't seem to be doing well right now.'' 𝒇𝒓eewe𝒃𝑛𝒐𝘃𝒆𝚕.co𝘮

''I can see that but I don't want to interfere. I am worried I will be in a spot if one day if I have to choose one of them.''

''Now, you are overthinking. Here,'' He shifted the spoon.

She glanced at the pastry with a weird expression on her face.

"What happened?''

Her face turned pale slightly and she pushed herself to her feet, ''I need...'' She pointed her finger towards the washroom before quickly walking, almost running inside without moving her neck.

Jun Zixuan's brows tugged together and he strode towards the washroom without a moment's delay.

Han Mansion.

'Pak'

Han Jingyi's face whipped to the side as the moment the live recording came to an end as Han Jing slapped her without holding back.

The sound of the slap seemed to be reverberating inside the quiet living room. There were the other members of the Han family but the expressions on their faces were not comprehendible.

Han Suyin was sitting on one corner of the long L-shaped couch with her palms covering her face, Han Sheng was standing behind her, his brows were tugged together.

On the other side of the couch, Old Master Han and Old Madam Han were sitting. While the latter sobbed softly, the former stroked her back with a quiet expression on his face.

"We don't care for you?" Han Jing's usually calm and gentle face was flashing with undeniable wrath, ''I named you after me, Han Jingyi and you hate us because we don't care for you. You...'' There was a shift of expressions in his eyes as a face flashed in his mind, ''You tried to.... to assassinate her,'' Han Jing stepped back from her.

Old Master Han pushed himself to his feet before he walked towards Han Jingyi. His old face seemed to have gotten more wrinkles in a little time, ''Why would you do that?" He asked, his voice rose slightly.

Han Jingyi pressed her palm harder on her cheeks, feeling the burn from the slap. Her eyes welled with tears up as she bit her lips, her fingers curled into a fist. The hatred for Yu Mei was burning stronger in her heart with each passing second.

For one, everyone in the family was aware that the beloved child that they have been yearning is not dead. She is alive and she is none other than Yu Mei Zhen. On the other hand, they knew that she had schemed against her for countless times. The live recording contained all the confessions that she had with Yu Mei.

And Han Jingyi never realized that there was Han Sheng's mole amongst her men.

"What's going on?" Han Liyun stepped inside.
