Married to his secret crush-Chapter 437 - Did You Move?

''Put me down, what are you doing?" Yu Mei gasped when Jun Zixuan lifted her in his arms as they walked out of her office.

''I have waited for hours already, can you bear to let me wait more?" He looked at her, blinking slowly.

Yu Mei closed her eyes, ''You… don't look at me like that.''

''Then how am I supposed to look at you?"

''Zixuan, put me down, people are watching us,'' Yu Mei could hear the sound of collective gasps wherever they passed by from.

''Let them watch. It should be a treat to their eyes no?"

Yu Mei was speechless.

As they stepped out of Rosette headquarters under the shocked gazes of the employees, Jun Zixuan walked towards his car. He placed her down before opening the door for her.

Yu Mei glanced at his innocent face before she quietly stepped inside the car.

Jun Zixuan smiled and walked towards the other side before getting inside the driver's seat.

As he stepped on the accelerator, he glanced at her, ''How do you feel today?"

''I am alright, what's going to happen to me?" she rolled her eyes.

There was not even a single day when he spared her from questions like this. The day started from 'how you are feeling' and the day ended with the same and the hours and minutes in between suffered from the same question.

After some time, Yu Mei shifted in her seat and she turned to look at him, ''Zixuan, what did I tell you?" she narrowed her eyes.

''You tell me a lot of things on daily basis, which one are you talking about?" he raised an eyebrow charmingly. 𝘧𝘳𝐞𝚎𝑤ℯ𝘣𝗻𝘰ѵℯl.c𝐨𝚖

''I am talking about not driving the car like a snail,'' As irresistible as his charms were, she felt the urge to glare at him and kiss him at the same time.

''I read that babies are delicate. Let us not hurt ours,'' Jun Zixuan shrugged.

''You… It won't be hurt if you drive faster. It takes us hours to reach Ren Mansion when you drive like this,'' Yu Mei slumped in the passenger seat.

''It's okay, you can treat it as a long drive,'' he said calmly.

Long drive, my ass. Yu Mei rolled her eyes but did not argue with him further, knowing that he was not going to change his mind on this.

In the end, she decided she was not going to wait for him to pick her up. It felt like a long journey and she had the urge to get a blanket and sleep in the car. What a waste of time!

''Is brother back?"

Jun Zixuan tilted his head to the side when he heard her meek voice, ''He is,'' He replied softly and shifted his left hand from the steering wheel to her palm as he stroked her fingers.

''Zixuan, has it been 2 months already?" She asked.

''It has been 2 months indeed,'' he answered, letting out a soft sigh.

''I miss her,'' Yu Mei glanced out of the glass panes as she straightened up. The sparkling citylights in the nighttime reminded her of Mia's excitement when she saw these for the first time, ''When she appeared in front of me, she was amused by everything that she saw. She was surprised and excited by every little thing she saw even though she would act nonchalant but I knew she wanted me to describe those things to her, to tell her more about this world. And by the time she learned everything, I got jealous of her photographic memory.''

Jun Zixuan chuckled.

''Don't laugh,'' She glared at him, ''You both are good in things like this. If she was there in university time, I would have been very excited to see who is the topper amongst you two,'' Her rankings and marks were decent as well but compared to these two who were monsters, she has been a human with high IQ.

Jun Zixuan laughed.

''Zixuan, will she come back?" Yu Mei drew a small circle on the glass of the window.

Jun Zixuan did not say anything, ''Let us hope she does.''

''Let us hope…'' Yu Mei mumbled as she closed her eyes, gradually drifting off to sleep.

Jun Zixuan stopped the car before he got his suit jacket from the backseat. He draped it over her body and kissed her forehead.

With one hand resting on the steering wheel, he looked into the distance. There was a small chance that Mia will come back but how?

It was like a dream that all of them were having, thinking, and wanting something impossible but he could not bring himself to say his thoughts aloud to Yu Mei.

As surreal as it was, all of them hoped for the same thing. And that was for her to wake up one day.

At Han Jian Yu's place. 𝗳𝙧𝐞𝚎w𝗲𝚋n𝚘𝙫𝑒𝘭.𝑐om

After hanging up the call with Jun Zixuan, Han Jian Yu threw his phone to the couch before he walked upstairs.

He pushed open the door of the bedroom and stood rooted to his spot, quietly looking at the woman who was sleeping on his bed.

His throat was choked up with emotions and he closed his eyes for some time to calm down before he walked towards the bed.

He sat beside Mia and held her palm quietly, ''When will you wake up, love?" he whispered, looking at her beautiful face, ''Hasn't it been long enough already?" his tone was cracking towards the end.

That day in the hospital, when she disappeared, almost all his hopes were crushed. But her physical body, it did not disappear., After he came out of that dark place, her physical body was still there, and unlike before when there were no heartbeats, she was breathing and had faint heartbeats.

The hopes in his heart that he thought were dead proved him wrong. He started believing that she will wake up and that she did not leave him.

He brought her home and quietly took care of her, waiting for her to wake up, to speak to him but she never opened her eyes.

Days turned to weeks and weeks turned into months and here she was, sleeping on his bed like a baby.

Han Jian Yu sighed, ''You know how beautiful you look when you sleep?" He asked her softly, tucking the loose piece of her hair behind her ear, ''How would you know? Maybe I never told you about it. Mia, as beautiful as you look while sleeping, I like you talking to me more. Your voice ringing in my ears, when you direct your glares at me, when you argue with me, when you push me by placing that delicate finger of yours on my chest, I love all of it.''

Two months was not a very long time. But for the very first time in the 30 years of his life, the two months were never-ending. It was as if time did was crawling by right in front of his eyes, very slowly.

Or maybe it was her, the woman whose cold voice has once become a lullaby to him, and without it, he felt sleepless in the days and restless at night.

Han Jian Yu let go of her hand before he walked inside the bathroom. He brought over a towel soaked in lukewarm water.

Walking back to the bed, he held her in his arms and helped her lean back on the headboard before unbuttoning the buttons of his shirt that she was wearing.

''It has been two months already. For how long will you continue your beauty sleep?" He whispered as he removed the shirt off her body before wiping her clean. He leaned closer and bit her neck, ''What are you even punishing me for?"

As usual, there was no response from the woman. He helped her wear a clean black shirt of his, ''I admit I have been a jerk but when have I ever been a jerk to you…?" Han Jian Yu paused talking as he suddenly felt something on his thigh.

He glanced at her palm which was lying on his thigh, ''Did you move?" His eyes lit up as he glanced at her hand but there was no movement from her.

He stared at it for a long time before letting out a sigh.. Maybe he wanted her to wake up so badly that he was starting to hallucinate things.
