Married to his secret crush

Chapter 394 - We Survived



"She has always been low-key about her identity. Wedding and similar things, she would prefer them to be high-profile but with time, her preferences changed,'' Jun Zixuan answered her patiently, noticing the curiosity in her eyes. In fact, it was not with time, it was because of her death that Yu Mei got clearer on many things and more importantly, what she wanted in her life and he was aware of that. 

''Since how long do you know her?" 

''It has been years…'' Jun Zixuan thought about the first time he saw her and a small smile played on his lips. 

Han Suyin did not miss the smile on his face and she asked, ''Ah Xuan, tell me, how has her life been? Did she go through a lot…?''

''Not much. We survived.'' 

Both Jun Zixuan and Han Suyin turned towards the source of the voice. 

Jun Zixuan raised an eyebrow while Han Suyin was a bit confused looking at the person standing at the entrance. She recognized him with a single glance. He was the President of Amaranthine and it was not her first time seeing him. She had seen him in tabloids and news but it was her first time seeing him up so close in person. There was something familiar about him but at the same time, he was completely unfamiliar to her. 

Han Jian Yu stood at the entrance for a few seconds before he thrust one of his hands in his pocket and walked towards them, ''Long time no see, Aunt,'' He glanced at the woman who once asked him to call her Mom, who has always ever showered him with all the kindness and love that he lacked. 

It was as if… as if someone nailed Han Suyin to her place. She could not move neither could she speak. She only stared at him blankly. Something stirred inside her heart and it took her a long time to recover her senses, ''…J-Jian Yu?" The whisper left her mouth, her voice was uncertain. 

''It's me,'' Han Jian Yu smiled as he nodded. 

Han Suyin's lips parted but no words came out of it. Whether Han Jian Yu was alive or not….was a big question that she had, that she wanted to ask and to know. But she was afraid of the answer and it scared her if she will come to know that he…. Han Suyin closed her eyes for a moment before she stood up, ''I never thought you were always in front of us,'' After they moved to Beijing, the Han Family has rarely ever paid attention to the any matters in Amaranthine. 

''That's because I didn't want any of you to know…'' Han Jian Yu replied with a straight face. 

Han Suyin's did not mind this tone though but instead of offending her, that tone of his brought tears in her eyes. He had always talked to people in this tone, even when he was just 7. She was used to this, ''I-I thought I…I have lost the both of you…'' She placed her palm on his cheek, her fingers slightly trembled, ''You have grown up well… I missed you all these years,'' Her voice was shaky. 

Han Jian Yu hugged her as he patted her back quietly, without saying anything else. 

Jun Zixuan quietly sat on the couch, a slightly suspicious look remained in his eyes. It was good that they reunited but given that Han Jian Yu had wanted to stay away from the Han Family, he did not have to show up here to meet them willingly unless… he did not know that they were here when he came. 

If he didn't know of that, what would he come here for? It took him a moment to get a hint of what Han Jian Yu was doing here. 

"No,'' Yu Mei stood up from the couch as she moved her hand out of Han Jing's. 

''You don't want to go to Han Mansion?" Han Jing glanced at her as he continued, ''I…''

''I am not asking you to abandon Han Jingyi or anything as such. She is your daughter and I will leave this matter in your hands so can deal with her however you want. All this while, I have not done anything to her. She is the one coming at me, either to kill me, or play with my company or harm me,'' She continued speaking, ''After everything, I don't want to go there to play sister with her. I… I can meet you all here or wherever you want me to but not there.'' 

''What she did was wrong….'' 

''I killed some of those mercenaries she sent to kill me,'' She expected him to be shocked but he looked unfazed. She wondered whether he was already aware of it, ''And I know the Han family is not pure either, they too have blood on their hands. So, what Han Jingyi did, it can always be ignored but I won't ever forget it neither can you expect me to try to forgive her.''

Han Jing stood up from the couch before he patted her head, ''I didn't expect that from you either. Give me some time…'' 

''You don't have to do anything about it,'' She said, noticing the reluctance in his eyes, ''As long as she does not repeat whatever she tried in the past and she stays away from me, I will let it go for this once just for the sake of you all.'' 

Han Jing wanted to say something but Yu Mei's expressions told him that she won't listen it further so he just stood there quietly, looking at her until there was a knock on the door before the door opened and Han Jian Yu stepped inside, followed by Han Suyin. 

''You…''

Han Jing recognized the man at the first glance. 

''Jing, he… he is Jian Yu, Brother Sheng's son,'' Han Suyin said, snapping the man out of his daze. 

His expressions shifted slightly and he stood rooted to the spot, unable to comprehend what his wife told him.
