Married to his secret crush Chapter 229

''Our pictures are circulating online. These...weird news are trending now," She turned her phone towards him, "I got you in trouble, didn't I?" After all, he has never shown his face to the public neither has he revealed his identity but now, the media might hover around him 24/7.
Jun Zixuan grabbed the phone from her hand before he pushed himself up to sit still having her on his lap.
'Is it that serious?' She wondered to herself when a small frown graced his handsome face.
"Their photography skills lack. They only captured my side profile," The man muttered after contemplating a bit over it.
Yu Mei: "_"
Was that the point here?
''Did you read the headlines?"
"No. I just looked at the pictures.''
She followed his gaze. They were the pictures when Jun Zixuan carried her outside the hotel on his shoulder and there was another picture of them which was initially presented by Madam Yu during the press conference.
No wonder his reaction was neutral. She was a bit nervous at this point. Would he blame her?
No normal man will like it when someone pointed at them for being dependant on their woman financially. It hurts their male ego probably. And this issue was much serious than that.
Jun Zixuan was a proud man. She was well aware of this fact from her previous life.
He has always been kind and close to her but to the rest of the world, he has remained unreachable.
And now he is rumored to be her kept man, she was not sure what will this lead to? But no matter what it was, it wasn't going to be anything good.
His eyebrow rose slightly as he read the headlines further.

She closed her eyes, not mentally prepared for what was about to come. They just got into a relationship and peace seemed to have said goodbye to them. And now this new trouble might as well incite a fight between them. She cursed the reporter who made up such things. They just never learn their lessons. Shameless! Immoral people.
I curse you to stay awake at nights.
I curse you to lack condoms when you want to do that with your partner.
I curse you to bump your toenail in the edge of the door.
I...
"Interesting."
The strings of curses flowing in her mind halted when the man uttered this single word. "What?"
The man turned her phone towards her, showing her the headlines, "I think they are interesting."
It took her some time to recover her senses, "You aren't offended?" She glanced at the strange species of man in front of her.
"Why would I be offended?" Jun Zixuan frowned, "I am very pleased. These reporters have done a pretty good job.''
"They called you my kept man. Someone whom I have been supporting financially. You sure you aren't offended by that?" She glanced at him doubtfully.
He threw her phone to the other side of the bed before wrapping his arms around her waist and leaning closer to her such that the barest tips of their noses touched, "The world now knows me as your man. I don't think I have anything to be offended about. I can't be happier, you know?" He whispered against her lips, looking into her starry eyes.
She blinked, "You are so different," Usually, men would be offended by such things. Even women don't like to be called a mistress then which man would appreciate being called a woman's kept?

"One more reason for you to keep falling deeper for me, I guess," He suggested.
She chuckled, "I will think about that."
He was indeed different but only when it came to her. If he was interlinked with another woman in such a way then right at this moment, half of the world would have been on fire along with the woman in question.
But because it was her, everything that was going on was fine to him.
"It really won't cause any trouble to you?" She asked with a hint of worry apparent in her eyes.
"Uh-huh. Possibly not," She frowned slightly, "Don't worry. Even if something happens, I'll handle it," He reassured her.
She bit her bottom lips, "Are we forgetting something important here?"
Jun Zixuan looked at the woman who was biting her lips in contemplation, her slightly exposed cleavage, her long dark hair falling in front of her shoulder, "If you keep seducing me like that, who knows what will be left for me to remember," he muttered under his breath.
"Mm? Did you say something?" She glanced at him.
He played with her dark tresses, "I said you are beautiful."
"I know that," She nodded in understanding, ''Say something new," She spoke with a straight face before trying to recall what was she forgetting amidst all this.
The corner of his lips twitched. "Narcissistic."
"I was being honest, Zixuan."
"Whatever. I would have appreciated it if you were this honest with everything else too."
She coughed.
'Knock knock'
The couple looked at each other.
"Who is it at this time?" She clung tighter to him, looking at his face under the moonlight.
"It's not ghost for sure," He laughed, looking at the way she shivered, "You are such a scaredy-cat, you know?"
She sighed. She would rather face death than facing ghosts.
"Master, Young Mistress, it is me."
Yu Mei got off the man's lap before walking towards the door and opening it only to be greeted with Steward Gu's face. The man's expression had a hint of urgency on it, "Come in..." She stepped to the side to give him the way before closing the door behind them.
"What's wrong?" Jun Zixuan got off the bed.
"Master, that..." Steward Gu was not sure how to speak about it. Then again, he was reminded of the other presence in the room. He glanced at Yu Mei and further hesitated to speak.
Before Jun Zixuan could say something, Yu Mei spoke up excitedly, "Oh, I remember now."
"What do you remember?" Jun Zixuan glanced at her.
"Didn't I say I was forgetting something earlier?" As the man nodded, she spoke up again, ''I remember it now."
