Married to his secret crush Chapter 16
Sighing to herself, Yu Mei tightened the bathrobe around her body before walking towards the bed. Taking out her laptop, she typed 'Han Jian Yu' and entered search but there was the same old news, it has many days since her death yet there was no new update about him. How could it be possible? Did he not attend any activities recently?
Frustrated, she pushed the laptop away and slumped back on the bed.
Rebirth…Something like that sounds unbelievable no matter how she heard it.
Suddenly, there were hurried knocks on the door.
Yu Mei frowned. Who would come to disturb her at this hour? Ever since she started exercising, she has been avoiding those maids so that they would not affect her positive mental health. She even started having her meals in the bedroom.
The knocks were louder this time when she did not make any movements.
Yu Mei pursed her lips before propping her body on both her elbows first, then she tightened her legs and finally she pushed her upper body so that she was sitting on the bed without bouncing back. This was the most effective solution she came up with after considering her rice ball figure.
After getting out of the bed, she walked towards the door.
'Click.'
As soon as the door was unlocked, the person outside pushed it open. And before it could bump on her face, she retreated a few steps back only to have her feet entangled with the plush carpet.
She closed her instinctively and braced herself to take the ugly fall but the expected pain did not come. She felt a warm arm wrapping around her waist while a palm supported the back of her head.
She let out a sigh of relief, "Thank…."
Before she could finish her words of gratitude, the person who was supporting her body in his arms staggered and both of them ended up falling on the bed.
"Ah…" She shouted with
Jun Zixuan propped himself on his hands as he glared at the woman under him. "Y-You are a ji..nx…" he muttered somewhat incoherently.
Yu Mei opened her eyes as she looked at the man blankly. His face was flushed and his gaze wasn't steady. "Are you drunk?" She asked, concerned.
No matter how bad he was for his wife, for Han Mei, he has always been a good friend since their university days. In those days….he was like a ray of sunshine in her bleak life.
He blinked, "I…am not."
"And pigs fly," she rolled her eyes, "Can you get off me first? I'll ask the servant to get some medicines first."
But the man seemed to be very comfortable in this position. If not because of her figure and ugly face, she would have thought he had some intentions towards her.
Jun Zixuan blankly stared at her face. After what seemed like a long time, he raised his hand and stroked her hair. Looking straight into her starry eyes, he mumbled, "I-I miss you…" His eyelids kept dropping but the man shook his head to stay awake.
Yu Mei froze. Somehow she knew that those words were not meant for her. He was looking for someone else in her.
There was desperation on his face and a hint of pity appeared in her eyes. She felt sad for him. The man was bound to a loveless marriage while his heart was seeking another woman. How tragic!
All her frustrations towards him slowly disappeared as she patted his head, "You too are a pitiful thing like me," I died on my birthday and I am suddenly reborn in another body. I am penniless, fat, ugly and I am unable to find ways to contact my brother. She sighed, "As long as you behave, we can be friends."
She did not mind having him back as her friend again. They can share their joys and sorrows like before.
But the man did not seem to register her words in his mind as his face approached closer and closer until their lips were inches apart.
The intensity of his gaze made her squirm. His gaze landed on her delectable lips and that sent danger alarms in her mind.
Has he gone crazy? Fuck, was he hallucinating his first love in her?
Man, look clearly. I am very ugly and fat right now. There is no way I could hold a candle to the woman in your heart. Stay away!
Her palm turned sweaty and her heart raced because of the close proximity. And just as his lips were about to touch hers, she knocked him out by striking his neck with her hand.
The man slumped on her body with his lips pressed on her neck.
She could feel her heart beating furiously inside her chest. Luckily…Luckily, she topped him in time. How awkward it was going to be for her if she was kissed by the man who has always been a nice friend to her? The thought of it made her shake her head.
Sighing to herself, she struggled to push the man off her body.
"You so lean yet why are you so heavy?" She panted before pushing the man with all her limbs in full force. As soon as she managed to put him on the other side of the king-size bed, she sat on the bed before taking a few deep breathes to calm her nerves.
Just as she was about to move to the couch to get a night of good sleep, she felt a prickling pain in her chest. It started as an uncomfortably itchy feeling.
She scratched the spot above her breast a few times but the more she touched it, the itchier it became. She scratched it until her skin became red and suddenly the itchy feeling disappeared….only to be replaced by pain.
She broke out in cold sweat as her trembling fingers gently stroked the spot to soothe the pain but it only became unbearable with each passing second. She bit her lips to bear the pain until it bled.
Not being able to withstand it anymore, she passed out on the bed.
