Married to his secret crush Chapter 220
Advertisement
She tilted her head when he walked towards her, "Yes?"
He grabbed the back of her neck and placed a soft kiss on her forehead, "Get over with it soon.''
''I will,'' She smiled.
Meanwhile, the higher-ups of Rosette: "_"
They heard a man's voice and could only see a flash of ash blonde hair. The sudden heap of dog food and their President's obedient face left them somewhat stunned and speechless.
As Jun Zixuan walked out of the Master Bedroom, Yu Mei got her attention back to the meeting, ''So, what do you all think about it?"
One of the directors snapped out of his trance, "Uh...About..?"
She frowned, "About whether you want to resign or give me the proper data. What else?''
They shivered at her cold tone.
Bohooo~ Mommy~
Their President had a multi-personality disorder.
Jun Zixuan descended the stairs before striding towards the kitchen.
"Master," The servants bowed at him.
He nodded at them and walked towards the refrigerator.
The people around them exchanged glances, "Master, shall we help you with something?"
"No need. You all can go," Jun Zixuan waved his hands at them as he got the fresh cream out before looking for the fruit basket.
Since she was very fond of fruit salad lately, it wasn't a bad idea to make a proper one for her to uplift her mood after the exhausting day and set of events that occurred today.
He was sure she still had many questions for him but they didn't get the chance to discuss it yet as she had a conference meeting.
He topped the fruit salad with cherries and looked at the bowl in satisfaction.
"Master," Steward Gu walked towards him with a hesitant expression on his face.
Jun Zixuan raised an eyebrow, ''What is it? You look like you have done something sneaky."
"Eh...Master, how could you think like that about me?" Steward Gu had the urge to rub his eyes. It was quite rare for his stoic Master to joke and laugh like ordinary people but ever since their Young Mistress woke up from her coma, everything has changed.

The man initially fought and bickered with her like a petty kid then they became friends and now, their relationship has seemed to be progressed further. No matter what it was, Steward Gu was more than pleased that his Master was more of a human now.
His all-time 'calm and collected' system has been implanted with the virus named Yu Mei Zhen. And now the man's mood fluctuation was directly proportional to anything his wife did.
"Your face says that,'' Jun Zixuan said nonchalantly, "So, what are you up to?" He asked.
Steward Gu hesitated. His Master looked so happy. It didn't feel right to spoil his mood at a time like this. But...it was his job and it would be improper to hide things from him.
In the end, he inhaled a deep breath and extended his hand to show the thing he was holding. The silver crystal card lying atop his palm had a purple crown symbol on it.
Jun Zixuan paused for a split second as his gaze flashed. He picked up the card from the man's palm and glanced at him.
"He sent your monthly allowance as usual," Steward Gu spoke up after hesitating a bit, "$50k this month."
As expected, Jun Zixuan's aura changed within an instant. His good mood from earlier seemed like an illusion to Steward as he found himself looking at the man whom he recognized very well. The one whom he had seen growing up in front of his eyes.
There was not a hint of emotion in those brown eyes as his face was back to his usual aloofness.
A chill lingered around him making Steward Gu uncomfortable. He knew the consequences of mentioning all of it will eventually lead to this but he had to do this anyway.
"Master, I...." Steward Gu's fingers curled into a fist as he tried not to stutter, "I did try to return the card to them as you wanted. But...he thought that y-you are not satisfied with the amount. So, he doubled your allowance from $25k to $50k and...and..."

Jun Zixuan raised an eyebrow.
"And he sent a message," Steward Gu gulped, "That you don't deserve more than this so you shouldn't expect more.''
Jun Zixuan glanced at the card in his hand blankly.
...
Yu Mei stretched her body as she walked out of the bathroom after freshening up. She got changed into a pair of shorts and a sleeveless white crop top before tying her hair in a high ponytail.
What an adventurous day it was!
She sighed and looked around the Master bedroom, "Why is he not back yet?"
'Knock Knock'
Her brows tugged together, "Come in."
Steward Gu pushed open the door and stepped inside, "Young Mistress, Master has prepared this for you."
She glanced at the tray he was holding. "Fruit salad?" Her eyes twinkled as she grabbed the bowl before stuffing a mouthful of the fruits, "Mhow...." She chewed it and gulped it down before speaking properly this time, "Wow. This is so good. I was just craving this.''
Steward Gu smiled, "Master knows you well."
"He does," Just as she brought another spoonful of it to her mouth, she paused, "Where is he?"
The man stiffened, "On the terrace."
She raised an eyebrow before putting the bowl of fruit salad back on the tray that he was holding, "The terrace of the Ren Mansion?" As the man nodded, she grabbed her phone from the couch, "I haven't seen it till now. Show me the way."
Steward Gu was stunned, "But...Young Mistress, your fruit salad. Won't you finish it?" He quickly followed after the woman who had already dashed out of the Master bedroom by this time.
Why was their Young Mistress so hyperactive now?
A few months ago, she was like a sloth who would not budge from her place for hours. Even getting a glass of water was trouble for her.
She paused at the mention of 'fruit salad' and glanced at the lonely bowl sitting on the tray, "But I want to see its creator first," She shrugged, "You can put it in the refrigerator. Don't miss a single cherry. Since Zixuan has made it for me, I will have it slowly, cherishing every single slice of fruit inside it."
Steward Gu: "_" Must you slap dog food on my single face so ruthlessly?
"This way right...?" She pointed her chin towards a particular direction that she has never ventured to while staying in the mansion.
Steward Gu pursed his lips, "Young Mistress, please don't go there."
Her footsteps came to a halt. "What do you mean?" She glanced at him. From the moment she spoke about going to the terrace, he was kind of finding excuses to stop her. Although she noticed it but she did not pay much attention to it, "Don't tell me you are hiding dead bodies there?" She folded her arms in front of her chest.
Steward Gu hurriedly shook his head, "Master wants to stay alone..."
"Alone?"
"Yes," The man nodded, "Please give him some space and wait for him to come back."
She blinked.
Steward Gu sighed in relief thinking that she was convinced.
...
A/N: I've tested positive for Covid a few hours ago even though I was vaccinated recently.
I have Asthma so let's hope this doesn't gets me hospitalized.
So, I'm here to inform y'll about this. Do expect irregular updates but I'll try my best to update as many chapters as I can in all my books. And the grammar would be a little off probably because I would be using the phone instead of my laptop to write for a few days.
We are missing the Winwin this month >.

Romance - plus Judgemental Powers? Completed
Blue was a red headed boy who desperately wanted a girlfriend. So he asked the class beauty to walk home with him. She very nicely refused him. So he asked another girl in the same class, one with an average rating in the social status ranking. She also refused him. So, still desperate, he thinks – “I’m probably at the bottom of the ranking for boys in this class, so how about I ask the girl who is also at the lowest ranking?” The girl’s name was Pink. She said yes. Gulp. “What do I do now?” was his reaction. Well, obviously, have a romance. And, along the way, they get one hell of a lot more than they bargained for. Like, for example, supernatural Judgemental Powers. How did they get those? And that was only the start. The two most insignificant students in their class become famous. Not just in their class or even in their school, but to the population at large. They end up breaking and making the top politicians and rulers of their country. But finally, of course, they get what they wanted. A committed relationship. This is an Esmeralda the Angel of Death story. It follows on from my previous novel “Maybe it would have been a good idea not to wish for a harem?”, however it is a totally separate story with only a minimal overlap in the characters. There is no need to read the first story to enjoy this one. Although you just might enjoy the first story also… This story has multiple characters and multiple Points of View. Every POV change is clearly marked with a new header. Inside each POV section, the POV character’s thoughts are in italics. This story has about 105,000 words (about 380 RoyalRoad pages). It is fully written and proof read (the poor man’s proof read using Word). It has 25 chapters, and will be published at the rate of roughly one chapter per day.
