Married to his secret crush

''What are you brothering for?" Jun Zixuan grabbed her wrist before he pulled her into his arms.

Yu Mei glared at him, ''You... Let me go. He is injured right now.'' 

''He is a man, he knows when to stop. Since he can run after a fox who is way faster than him, despite being in this rusty condition, then he wants a broken rib. Why do we care?" 

Yu Mei pushed him, ''You are the bigger fox here. Of course, I care,'' she narrowed her eyes. 

''Okay okay, Mia is there. She will deal with it if anything is wrong and she looks normal now,'' He pulled closer to him as he wrapped his arms around his waist, ''Come now, hug me.'' 

The corner of her lips twitched as she glanced at him, ''Why should I hug you? Am I not dummy? What if I rub my dumminess on you, huh?"

''I don't mind, you can rub it if you want,'' He shrugged.

She punched his chest, ''Like it's fine if you are dealing with him, is there a need for you to throw shade on me like that? From which angle am I dummy?'' 

''Let's go back to the mansion first, I will tell you how you are a dummy,'' Jun Zixuan smiled mysteriously. 

Yu Mei blinked, ''Again...''

''Hmm?" He raised an eyebrow. 

''You are giving me that mysterious smile once again,'' She eyed him suspiciously, ''What are you upto...Ahh...'' A gasp escaped her mouth when he suddenly pulled her up in a Princess carry. 

''Come, let's go home,'' Jun Zixuan kissed her hair. 

''Brother and Mia are here...'' 

''You want to be a third wheel? Then, you stay here while I go back and sleep.'' 

As he motioned her like he was about to put her down, she quickly wrapped her arms around his neck and buried her face in his chest. 

He smiled at an angle where she was unabvle to see it. 

''What third wheel? Brother doesn't knows the truth yet... And Mia is so stubborn about this, she won't tell him about it,'' Yu Mei mumbled under her breath. 

''We will leave that up to them for now,'' Jun Zixuan replied as he made his way towards the chopper. 

Suddenly reminded of something, Yu Mei looked at him, ''There are bombs in this place,'' she said. 

''Oh? You just realized?" 

She glanced at him unamusedly, ''No, what I mean is, how are we supposed to leave them alone here? What if something happens?" 

Jun Zixuan shook his head, ''Han Sheng has been very cautious about it. The bombs can only be diffused by the remote and he was sure that nothing can make him hand it over like that... so he did not keep any second option,'' he paused for a moment before looking in a certain direction where a man waved at him from another chopper, ''Okay, all the bombs in this area are diffused.''

Yu Mei sighed in relief as she leaned her head on his chest, ''Zixuan...''

''Mm?"

''Zixuan...'' She stroked his jawline as she called his name softly. 

''Yes, love?" He looked at her. 

''I missed you so much...'' 

His grip on her gradually tightened as he pressed a kiss on her forehead, ''You did?" 

''Mm..'' 

''Good, I missed you too.'' 

She smiled. 

.. 

On the other side of the woods, Han Jian Yu placed his palm on a tree to support his body as he panted.

He was breathless at this point. He did not know what exactly was he doing, running like this after that fox. It was a dangerous creature and it might just end him right here in the middle of the forest. 

And given his current, there won't be even 1% chance that he will escape safely but still, the moment he watched the fox running away, all he wanted was to follow and he did not know what compelled him to do so. 

But since he had come so far, there was no going back on this. He raked his finger through his hair and stood up straight before running around. 

Initially, he was still able to see the white flash when he started following after it but it gradually increasing the speed and he eventually lost track of it.

Han Jian Yu looked around the place as he slowly stepped forwards. Moonlight filtered in the dark place through the gap between the leaves and he could not even spot a single shadow around him. 

''Argh...'' He cursed under his breath when his leg got entangled in a vine and he ended up falling. He pressed a palm on the ground to support his body as he pushed himself up but the wounds on his back got stretched by that movement and fresh blood started oozing out of it. 

Han Jian Yu sucked in a cold breath as he sat up straight on the ground before leaning back on the tree behind him. He placed his hand on his knee and closed his eyes, ''I must have gone crazy when I came here,'' he muttered under his breath. 

He did not even get to talk to his sister properly and with that sly man for hiding all this from him until now, but it seems like they would get to see him in his funeral after this. 

''Dammit,'' He gritted his teeth when sudden tremors shot through the cuts formed by the whip.

'Rustle' 

There was some noise in the distance and Han Jian Yu laughed at himself mockingly. Alright, his body stopped working and now he was hearing things too. 

He blaimed himself for acting on impulse. All his life, he had ever been impulsive only before, with that idiotic woman... Around her, he had turned an idiot time and time again. 

And now, he will be counting this incident too.

Lost in his thoughts, he heard that sound again, the sound of dried leaves being stepped on.

So, it was not an illusion. 

His eyes snapped open.
