Married to his secret crush

Chapter 371 - Jerks Are Jerks



\'\'She does not want to let them know about her identity,\'\' Jun Zixuan said, \'\'Am I right?" He asked Yu Mei.

She paused before nodding as she glanced at Han Jian Yu, \'\'I...\'\' She felt conflicted knowing who her parents were and there were countless questions in her heart but at this moment, she could not bother to think about the things which had not existed for her all her life, \'\'I need to vent for you,\'\' She confessed.

Han Jian Yu laughed as he pushed himself to his feet, \'\'It\'s all in the past. Right now, you have two options. If you go back to them, in one way or another, today or tomorrow, they will know who you are. If you don\'t want to go back to them, then we will stay away from the Han Family forever acting like they don\'t exist. And no matter what you choose, I will back you up.\'\'

Jun Zixuan sat on the couch, lost in his thoughts as he contemplated over the things, giving both of them the space to discuss it.

Yu Mei felt conflicted in her heart but she knew that going back to that family meant a line between her and Han Jian Yu. The fact that he was not her biological brother affected her but it did not affect her more than the fact that he was abused there.

Her biological parents... The thought of that bubbly woman, Han Suyin, who asked her to call her Aunt flashed in her mind. That gentle smile on Han Jing\'s face as he looked at her, that stern yet cute old man who asked her to peel apples... they were all her family.

\'\'They are a happy family now-\'\'

Jun Zixuan interrupted her, \'\'Han Jingyi is adopted. Han Liyun is your biological brother,\'\' he said as he saw the text that he just received on his phone. It was the result of the in-depth investigation that he had asked Steward Gu to do.

Han Jian Yu nodded, \'\'Han Jingyi was adopted the year after we disappeared from there.\'\'

So, she was their adopted daughter. Yu Mei had more questions in her mind, \'\'No matter what, I chose you,\'\' She said before asking, \'\'Brother, what about your grandparents? How are they now?"

\'\'Everyone thinks that both of us are dead. My grandfather passed away after getting this news as he had heart disease. My grandmother is still there.\'\'

\'\'You... Have you met her?"

\'\'No. She is living peacefully. If I go to meet her, things might turn chaotic for her in the end,\'\' he said.

She kept quiet about it. Probably the people who were after her might go to any extent to reach their goal. \'\'When did you remember everything?"

\'\'The day when you were assassinated, I was in a comatose state for weeks...\'\'

No wonder. All of it started clicking in her mind. No wonder she was unable to find any updates on him during the period she woke up in this body.

Jun Zixuan pushed himself to his feet, \'\'Why did you both leave the Han Mansion in the first place? And why did they never get you back?\'\'

Han Jian Yu frowned, \'\'I need a coffee...\'\' He had a headache recalling those days.

\'\'I will make you one,\'\' Yu Mei clung to him as she helped him out of the study. The world was unfair to her. Why was he not her biological brother? Although it did not make much difference to her, \'\'It\'s a good thing that you don\'t have another sister. Things would not have ended well by then.\'\'

\'\'You are my only sister,\'\' Han Jian Yu said, \'\'You can make coffee now?"

\'\'Brother, I have always been able to make it. Are you doubting my coffee-making capabilities?\'\' She scoffed.

Looking at their retreating backs, Jun Zixuan folded his arms in front of his chest. Was he treated as the backdrop just now?

...

Compared to the chaos in Ren Mansion, Mia was drowning in the silence of the glass walls.

She made herself some instant noodles with extra eggs and meat in them and placed the bowl on the dining table before taking a seat but as she glanced at it, she did not feel like eating it.

She pushed it away before placing her head on the table, \'\'Jerks are jerks forever. Would it have charged him money if he informed me before leaving?" She glanced at the glass partition, "Even if it did, he is rich enough to afford that."

The house in the opposite was dark but she could picture the initial days of hers with Han Jian Yu when he would sit there on the couch, looking at her occasionally.

Mia lowered her head as she placed the tip of her nose on the table. It was a good thing that he left.

She tapped her fingers on the table and tilted her face to the side, her gaze landed on the hickey on her wrist which was left by him yesterday. She glanced at it blankly for a few seconds before closing her eyes.

It should be a good thing that he left.

...

Han Jian Yu sipped the coffee as he nodded, \'\'Best coffee I ever had,\'\' He said as he sat on the arm of the couch.

\'\'Isn\'t it?" Yu Mei stroked the collar of her shirt proudly.

But given the panda printed night suit she was wearing, she was too cute to be taken seriously. That\'s what Jun Zixuan thought as he descended the stairs after hanging up the call but he felt a bit jealous as well.

\'\'Here is yours,\'\' Yu Mei said when she noticed him.

He glanced at the coffee mug in her hand and opened his mouth, \'\'Thanks,\'\' he said, inwardly chastising himself a bit for being so childish a moment ago.
