Married to his secret crush

"You mean…" Shi Luo paused, "You mean you will sleep with him if you are slim? You can't…"

"Are you crazy?" Yu Mei coldly interrupted, "To me, he has always been a good friend. But now, we are more like enemies. But whatever happens, we will never be involved in any sort of romantic or physical relationship."

Even after all his rude behaviour and their fights she still had a soft corner for him considering their past friendship. But that did not mean she had feelings for him.

Shi Luo cleared her throat, "I hope you will not eat your words actively in the future."

"Do I look like someone who would eat her words?" She scoffed.

You do. Shi Luo rolled her eyes feeling lucky that the woman could not see her.

"I guess I'll be going to the hospital tomorrow. So, is there something for which you called me now?"

"Can't I call you for no reason?" came Shi Luo's indignant reply. There was a pause after which she soon added in a soft voice, "In fact, there is a reason for which I called you…"

"I am listening. Go on…" Yu Mei closed her eyes covering them with the back of her hand.

"Go back to Amaranthine."

"What are talking about...? Luoluo... you know my situation very well. Right now, I don't even know how to contact Jian Yu. There are no updates about his situation. What should I do by going back?"

Shi Luo sighed, "Rosette will go bankrupt if you don't go back. The rival companies….they won't spare it…"

The woman sleeping on the couch opened her eyes in an instant. The calm expression on her face slightly wavered but her voice remained nonchalant, "What has it got to do with me?"

"You….How can you even speak like this?" Shi Luo coldly spoke, "I don't think your Brother would watch on the side when your company is crumbling down. There must be some issues on his side. But how could you be so unaffected by it? Xiao Mei, this is Rosette we are talking about.... You... You are the CEO and chief designer, they can't go on without you."

''I am Yu Mei Zhen right now and anything related to all this has nothing to do with me,'' Yu Mei hung up as soon as she finished speaking.

She pushed herself to sit on the couch before getting her laptop from the bedside table. Putting it on the bed, she checked the small creature tucked inside her comfy blankets first. It was still sleeping soundly.

She sat on the bed before opening her laptop and typed 'Rosette'.

Soon, the search results showed up.

'The world-renowned designer and the CEO of the giant Rosette and co. vanishes overnight, leaving the company in a plight.'

'Rosette stock plunges 19 percent after the disappearance of the legend of designing, Leanne.'

'The high-end luxury jewelry brand Rosette faces great pressure from the rivals.'

'The headquarters of the world's top jewelry brand Rosette situated in Amaranthine faces the ire of the news reporters. The staff members and higher-ups refuse to make any statements.'

'Bam.'

She closed the laptop with a loud sound before sighing.

She checked the time. It was 2 pm already and she was very hungry. She stood up from the bed before walking out of the room.

She locked the door properly.

There was a guestroom beside her bedroom. The room next to the guestroom was the Master's bedroom.

The guestroom was like a line between her and Jun Zixuan's room.

The line which will always exist between them till their divorce, she thought to herself.

Just as she walked past the guestroom, the door of the Master's bedroom opened almost banging on her face if not for her fast reflexes.

Although the fat body made it impossible for her to move around a lot but at least, she still retained some of her fighting skills that could be used in emergency situations.

She narrowed her eyes as the man walked out of the room, "Do you want to kill me?" She pointed her chin at the door.

The man glanced at her expressionlessly, "I prefer to keep my hands clean."

Killing you will get my hands dirty.

She understood the underlying meaning in his words.

Without bothering herself to bicker with him, she descended the stairs and the man followed after she took five steps. He ensured to keep a proper distance between them.

And hell these discriminations… She was sure that even in the olden times, nobody would have treated the untouchables in such a way.

As they made their way to the kitchen, none of them bothered to talk to each other.

She walked towards the fridge before pulling open the door. But to her dismay, there was no ready-made food inside.

There were eggs, raw milk, fruits, vegetable, and all other ingredients but nothing that she could eat instantly.

There were different kinds of juices but she would be crazy if she drank it on this cold snowy day.

Sighing to herself, she glanced at the man from the corner of her eye.

Jun Zixuan was putting on a black apron atop his white round-neck T-shirt.

She has never seen him dressed like that.

During the university, he would always be in the dress code of Crystal university.

Whereas after her rebirth, she always got to see him in dark-colored suits.

The white T-shirt combined with the denim jeans enhanced his long and muscular legs. As he tied the apron around his body, his back muscles flexed.

He ran his fingers through his golden ash-blonde bangs with his washed hands setting them smoothly to keep them from falling on his forehead.

A few water droplets dripped down his face.

"Like what you see?"

His aloof voice snapped her out of her daze. She blinked twice before replying, "At first glance, I thought you look like pretty gigolos. So, I was just ensuring if I saw it right."

Inwardly, she chastised herself for looking at him like that. It was not like she saw this handsome creature for the first time, how could she look at him in a daze?

He turned around to look at her, his jaw visibly twitched but his voice remained indifferent, "I thought you were looking at the food I am making. Who knew you had your eyes set on me?"

She was speechless. So, she just exposed herself.

So what if I looked at you? Will you charge me for it? She wanted to speak it aloud... Being thick-skinned once won't hurt, will it?

In the end, she said, "Why would I look at your food when I can cook better than you?" She coldly retorted.

Her inner voice replied 'But girl, you don't know how to cook.'

And just then, Yu Mei realized how impulsive people bring disaster upon themselves.
