Married to his secret crush

"What do you mean by I am not your sister? Are you angry about something and this is your way of throwing tantrums?" She smiled as she was suddenly reminded of her childhood days. When she would be angry at Jian Yu, she will throw this exact line at him \'You are not my brother\' and that would be all for him to hover around her with his silly attempts in coaxing her.

"No..." The boy shook his head vehemently as his bangs covered his eyes.

She laughed before combing his hair with her fingers. This boy was too cute for his own good. What a little lamb!

"I mean I know you are not...not my mother\'s daughter," Yu Mei stiffened as the boy continued, "You are another person in my sister\'s body."

Her jaws dropped as she looked at the boy with widening eyes. Her grip on his hands loosened as she let go of him.

But Yu Jinhai was quick to grab her palm and enveloping it in his small ones, "But that does not matters. You are the only Jie I have. You don\'t have to be her to be my elder sister. She hated me but you love me so much."

She glanced at the ceiling to blink away her tears. What are these people going to get by ruining her image like this?

She rubbed the tip of her nose, "How did you know that I am not her?"

"That day...On mother\'s death anniversary...I was not asleep. I overheard your conversation with Sister Luo," The boy guiltily muttered, \'\'I apologize. I know that eavesdropping isn\'t good. I won\'t do it again."

She ended up laughing at how innocent he was. She ruffled his hair, "You really don\'t care that I am not your biological sister and just another person in her body? Don\'t you think of me as monster?" She was a bit taken aback at how calmly he accepted the fact. Even though he overheard it, wasn\'t he the least bit afraid of her? Which child would believe in something so bizarre without finding her scary?

"You resemble angels," The boy smiled.

At first, he was so confused when his elder sister who has always hated him started treating him so nicely. But he never disliked it. He liked spending time with her and unlike before, he was not scared of her.

Only now did he realized that she was another person. He felt a bit sad that his own sister...is gone but he was so happy to have her and that left him a little conflicted.

She pulled him closer for a hug, "Sweet talker,\'\' She sighed.

"I have learned it from brother-in-law."

She laughed, "Brother-in-law\'s minion."

Yu Jinhai smiled, "Jie..."

"Huh?" She broke the hug before looking at him.

"Thank you for treating me so well."

"Didn\'t you say that you see me as your sister?" As the boy nodded, she ruffled his hair, "Then what are you thanking me for? I just treated you the way a cute little younger brother should be treated."

The boy pounced on her for another hug.

Later that night in the Ren Mansion:

"What are you thinking about?"

She snapped out of her trance as she glanced at the man "Nothing." she leaned back on the arm of the couch.

"I called you twice but you did not respond," Jun Zixuan settled on the other end of the couch as he looked at her.

"I was a bit distracted," She smiled, "How was your day?"

"The day went as usual," He stated nonchalantly, "As for the night, I will have to rely on you for the answer," He winked at her before raking his finger through his hair.

Her breathing hitched while her face turned hot in an instant. She cleared her throat, "You promised to tell me about something today."

"About the Jun Family?" He raised an eyebrow.

She nodded.

He grabbed the file on lying on the coffee table before putting it between them.

"You have already prepared this..." She muttered to herself.

She opened it and she was greeted with the picture of an old man on the first page. His stern and frigid countenance gave off a strong aura even though it was just a picture. She glanced at the vague data about him on the right side.

He was the Old Master of the Jun Family, Jun Zixuan\'s grandfather, "How did he treat you back then?" She softly asked without raising her head to look at him.

But a second later, she realized that he was just around 3-4 years old at that then how he remember this? Moreover, there was his special health condition that his mother spoke of.

"He locked me in the basement a few times and other than that, we don\'t have much interactions," He spoke casually.

Her head snapped in his direction, "You remember?"

He paused for a moment, "My condition was special. I could not speak at that time but I remember everything clearly."

She blinked. She\'d rather he forgets such unpleasant memories.

Anyways, she had to know these creatures anyway and she was very determined to do it today.

Taking a deep breath, she turned the page. And this time the man in the picture resembled Jun Zixuan. While Jun Boyan got most of his features from his beautiful mother, Jun Zixuan did not resemble Shen Lihua that much. She realized from where he inherited his rare ash blonde hair from. "Is he your father?" She glanced at his name that read \'Jun Zishen\'.

"Sperm donor," He corrected her.

She pursed her lips, "So, how was his attitude back then?"

"Pretty much neutral."

Yu Mei scoffed. From what Shen Lihua had told her, she could predict the behaviour of this man. He remained neutral in all situations and never raised his voice against his parents even though they were wrong at times. And in the process, he kept hurting his own little family, be it intentionally or unintentionally.

The next page had two pictures on it and she stiffened the moment her gaze landed on the second picture.
