Married to his secret crush

Chapter 102 - Can I Hug You?



Li Shuang distanced herself from him, "Why would you talk to her?'' She asked, her gaze remained cold even as she looked at him.

The man glanced at her with deep affection in his eyes, ''Because she is your childhood friend. She was the only person you were close to but I came in between you. You don't know how much guilt I feel."

Looking at the sincere expressions on his face, Li Shuang walked towards him before wrapping her arms around his waist, "It's all in the past. We're no longer friends. Don't do that again."

Zhu Boqin hugged her back tightly before placing a soft kiss on her head.

On the other side, Yu Mei called Jun Zixuan to inform him that her classes were over after which she wandered on the campus, looking around the famous Imperial University of Beijing. She glanced in the direction of the library, contemplating whether she should go there or not.

But since Jun Zixuan will be here soon, she decided against it. 

Just as she walking in the corridor, a voice stopped her in her tracks.

"Elder Sister?"

Yu Mei turned around to look at the person who called her. As her gaze landed on the delicately pretty girl standing in front of her, it did not take long for the pieces of information to be downloaded in her mind.

The person standing in front of her was Yu Yan, the legitimate child of Father Yu and her stepsister.

'No need to see horoscope. I need a private fortune-teller or more so a prophet from tomorrow onwards,' She thought to herself, "You got the wrong person,'' She nonchalantly said.

"Elder sister, why are you ignoring me? Are you angry?" The girl ran towards her, clinging to her arms.

"Let go," She pushed her away but Yu Mei could swear that the push was as light as ever then how did the girl fell on the floor as if she was hit by a bull?

"Yanyan…" 

Yu Mei turned around only to find a man appearing from behind. He walked straight towards Yu Yan without glancing at her.

She raised an eyebrow. No wonder this step-sister stumbled on the floor like that. She was trying to create a show.

"Well, I have to go. You guys can continue~" She turned around to walk away.

Yu Yan started sobbing, "Brother, see…I just told elder sister that plastic surgery won't do her any good, but she pushed me away like this…."

Brother? Is it the Young Master of Yu Family? Although she was curious, but she continued walking without turning around.

''Mei?"

The voice caused her to stop in her tracks. Her heart clenched momentarily. 

Despite not wanting to do that, her legs seemed to have lost control as she could not resist turning around to look at him.

Her mind felt so uncomfortable that she couldn't express what she was feeling.

Daniel Yu scanned her from head to toe, "You really have changed," He said, raising an eyebrow at her.

"Brother.." Yu Yan called out pitifully.

The man glanced at his sister who was on the floor as he extended a hand towards her before helping her up. He then averted his gaze back to Yu Mei who stood rooted to her spot, "This is not the way how you should treat your sister." He said, shaking his head in disappointment.

Yu Mei felt as if someone was squeezing her heart. Am I going to have a heart attack?

Why was there no painless experience for her?

Looking at her current condition, Yu Yan smirked. Wasn't she being cocky a few moments ago? But in front of her brother, she will always be like this. No matter how she changed, she will still be that puppet under their control.

"My mother did not give birth to a girl other than me so I don't…remember having a sister," Contrary to Yu Yan's expectations, Yu Mei coldly said this before walking away from there, her face turning slightly pale.

The Yu siblings: "_"

Yu Mei felt her pain disappearing within a few moments of walking away from there but she still felt very uneasy about it. Not only her body was exhausted, but even her mind was also tired after the day's events.

She did not remember how she walked out of the university gate before getting inside Jun Zixuan's car which was parked on the other side of the road.

She just leaned back on the passenger seat without saying anything. 

Jun Zixuan could sense something was wrong given how silent she was. 

"Is everything…"

"Can I…"

Both of them spoke up at the same moment.

"Speak."

"Speak."

They once again said at the same time and ended up laughing.

Jun Zixuan stayed silent this time, waiting for her to speak.

"Well…" Yu Mei glanced at him. Licking her lower lips, she opened her mouth, "Can I….hug you?" she asked. 

He froze for a split second but looking at her serious face, he lowered his seat slightly before extending his hand.

Seeing how he did not seem to mind it, she wrapped her arms around his waist and buried her face in his chest.

He stayed still in his position for a long time before raising his hand and gently stroking her back.

Nobody said anything. She just quietly leaned into his embrace while he let her without asking for reasons or explanations.

After a few minutes, she finally felt the stifling atmosphere in the car and loosened her grip on his waist. He stopped stroking her back and she sat back on the passenger seat before closing her eyes.

Usually, the drive to Ren Mansion took no less than 20 minutes but Yu Mei could swear it felt like an eternity today.

Despite the air conditioner in the car, she was sweating all over. Even keeping her eyes closed seemed to be difficult.

"You can stop pretending to sleep," the man softly said, much to her shock.

How would he know? She even kept her breathing in control.

But even if he knew it, did he have to say it on her face?

She pursed her lips and turned her face to the side but did not open her eyes. 

Jun Zixuan had to bit his bottom lip to restrain himself from laughing.
