Married to his secret crush

"You can stop me if you want," He kissed her lips.

She covered her mouth, "I haven\'t brushed."

"We\'ve gone farther without brushing. Don\'t you think?"

She cleared her throat, "Anyways, why would I stop you? Go do your work."

He placed a kiss on her forehead, "As you wish," He paused near the door, \'\'Breakfast is ready. Have it on time," With that, he turned around and left leaving the woman frozen in her spot.

"How could you not understand a woman\'s heart? Sometimes no means no while most of the times no means yes," She mumbled, sitting in her spot.

"Especially a woman like you who says something and means something."

"Ahh..." Yu Mei almost fell off the bed if not for Mia who caught her hand in time, "Can you stop scaring me?" She patted her chest.

Mia played with her long silver hair, "You are the most troublesome human I have ever met," She remarked.

Yu Mei smiled, "Shall I take that as a compliment, elder sister?"

Mia shook her head, \'\'You can."

"Alright."

"It is obvious from your face that you don\'t want him to leave then why can\'t you say that out?" Although Mia stops their mind connection most of the time but Yu Mei\'s inner monologues and high-pitch wails often manage to reach her ears.

"I guess that happens when you like someone. You won\'t understand," Yu Mei waved her hand, "I want him to stay but he is a busy man. I can\'t just bind him up 24/7 with me, right? So, I guess that\'s my issue to deal with."

"I don\'t think he will mind being bound to you all the time. He just wants you to open up. Do you realize how many things you have been hiding from him?" Mia stood up from the bed, still fiddling with her long hair.

"I...\'\' Yu Mei paused, "It would have been better if I hadn\'t met him in my previous life but we knew each other really well...I don\'t think I can ever share it with him...about who I am..." Her brows together.

Mia frowned, "Why?"

"Because-Leave it. Mia, I have got something for you," She quickly got off the bed and found her bag before getting out a file from a hidden chain, "Here... This will help you temporarily.\'\'

"These are?"

"These are your identity proofs. I got them under your name. There is a gold card in it and the keys to your new apartment," Yu Mei smiled, "I know that you really want to explore the world after staying trapped for years."

Mia lowered her head looking at the file that the woman shoved in her hands. Her hazel eyes slightly glistened.

"Oh, is our princess crying?" She chuckled.

"Her Highness doesn\'t like such disgusting things as tears," The vixen elegantly murmured but her slightly teary eyes betrayed her.

Yu Mei hugged the woman without any warning, "I won\'t lie. I have seen you as an enemy from the very first day we met and you have attacked me countless times. But everything has changed over these months. First, you were like a good friend and now you are like an elder sister, a guardian who always protects me. But Mia, I don\'t want you to waste your youth being my guardian. Although you\'re contracted to me, I want you to have a life of your own."

Mia glanced at the ceilings, trying to avoid the words of this wretched woman who was insistent on making her elegant self cry today. "But-"

"I know what you are going to say," Yu Mei interrupted her, "You don\'t have to protect me, Mia. You truly don\'t need to. I have to survive on my own as every other person does. They don\'t have a beautiful and strong princess with them to protect themselves," She paused and they both ended up chuckling, "Whatever it is, I\'ll have to live life as it comes. Whatever is destined to be will eventually happen, won\'t it? You have a long life ahead so just enjoy it well."

Mia froze at her last sentence, "I... I don\'t-"

"What?\'\'

Looking at the woman\'s worried face, Mia paused and shook her head, "I will go and do what you said. Explore, I mean. But on one condition."

"What is that?"

"Whenever you are in a problem or you need me, just think of me and I\'ll be there in your body."

Yu Mei smiled, "Is that because of the contract?"

Mia nodded.

"Alright, your house is right next to Luoluo\'s. When she is back from her trip, I\'ll introduce her to you and I\'ll also get Li Shuang over there someday."

Mia smiled and the file in her hands disappeared in thin air while she transformed to her fox form.

"Be careful, there are cameras outside...." Yu Mei paused when she remembered that Mia had got her powers back and no one can see her until she wants to be seen, "Walk straight out of the mansion gates and three allies ahead, there is a car for you. Your phone is in the car and I have saved my number in it."

Mia\'s tail swished up and down determining her happiness, "Thank you,\'\' A blush crept up her face and she turned around and ran away without looking back.

Yu Mei chuckled. It was rare to see this arrogant princess saying thank you to someone. Luckily everything turned out to be good for Mia in the end. Moreover, it seems Mia was well convinced that she had to stay away from Jian Yu. That\'s the best thing she could hope for.

Alas, if only the naive Yu Mei knew that a certain vixen was bound to pop up in her brother\'s life, in one way or another!
