Married to his secret crush

Chapter 243 - Not Dirty By Default



"...This and this....That's it," She closed the menu and leaned back on the chair.

"Alright, Ma'am. The order will be here in 15 minutes," The waiter spoke in fluent mandarin before he bowed and left the private room.

Since Amaranthine is a neighboring country of Mainland China, other than English, Mandarin remains the most widely spoken language in the country.

She glanced in the direction of the door before checking the time on her watch. It's past 10 am. That means it has been 10 minutes since Jun Zixuan left for attending his so-called important call.

She snorted, "He should date his phone and marry his iPad. Why am I even needed?" She gulped the glass of warm water before glancing out of the large French-styled window.

They were currently sitting in the private room of a small and cute restaurant. It was not extravagant or a five-star restaurant but it gave off homely vibes. As usual.

When they were all kids and her brother had yet to become the President of the country, they couldn't afford those expensive restaurants. At that time, they used to stay with Shi Luo and her mother. Their financial condition was not good too because of some issues regarding Shi Luo's father. She remembered her brother used to do multiple part-time jobs to manage their school fees and still, he would somehow save some money and bring her and Shi Luo here every weekend.

After they all grew up and got busy with their respective works, they still came here once a month. It was like an unsaid rule between them.

Usually, she was not fond of foods in many restaurants but a few places were exceptions.

Yu Mei sighed. It seems like it has been a decade since she last came here.

Today, she brought Jun Zixuan here when he said that they will have breakfast outside. He did ask her how she got to know about this place but she came up with the excuse that she looked about Amaranthine before coming here.

She glanced at her fingers in a daze, her mind drifting off towards some disturbing thoughts. Something that she has been trying to avoid for a long time.

"What are you thinking about?"

"Re-" She paused, "What are you doing here?" She narrowed her eyes.

"I thought we were having breakfast together?" Jun Zixuan winked as he raked his fingers through his hair before taking a seat opposite to her.

"Why? Your important call didn't feed you?"

"My girlfriend doesn't feeds me either," Jun Zixuan retorted, "You call this being a virtuous wife?" He asked when she snatched the glass of water from his hand.

"I am done playing virtuous wife. I might become a blood-sucking vampire now," She pursed her lips.

"What's wrong?" He grabbed the glass of water from her hand before taking a few gulps.

"I am not talking to you."

"Because we could not make out in the morning right?" Jun Zixuan sighed regretfully, "Don't worry, we can do it in the night. No one will disturb us."

"You...You..." This man. Her face reddened, "It's not about that..." Why did he always think in that direction?

"Then, why is my darling all riled up in the morning?" He grabbed her hand before pressing soft kisses on her knuckles.

She gulped when her body turned hot in an instant. What was that? Is there a switch on her body that she is unaware of?

"I-I...."

"Mei, you have to speak fluently for me to understand your inner feelings," He said before licking her index finger. A second later, he bit it slightly before sucking on it.

She gasped. Speak fluently? How can she speak fluently when he is doing this, "W-What am I? A candy?" She bit her lips.

He chuckled before letting her finger out of his mouth. His tongue licked his bottom lips, "My candy," He said, intertwining their fingers.

A candy is eventually meant to be eaten. What did he mean by calling her a candy? And what's with that licking lips gesture? Her face reddened at his insinuations.

"You have a dirty mind, you know?" Jun Zixuan threw his head back as he laughed.

She lowered her head in shame. She was influenced by him and their regular activities. Her mind was not this dirty by default.

"Now tell me, why were you angry?"

"Ah, I almost forgot about it," She tilted her head upwards to look at him, "Say, Zixuan, don't you think you always prioritize your phone and iPad over me? Your girlfriend was being bullied back in the Jun Manor, shouldn't you act the hero saving the damsel-in-distress?"

Jun Zixuan shook his head, "My damsel is the one who likes to give others distress. Am I wrong?"

"Do you have to phrase it like that? Am I that bad?" She wiped her non-existent tears.

"Alright love, that's enough," Jun Zixuan laughed.

"Weird, you are laughing too much today," She glanced at him in confusion.

"You are being funny and cute. What do you expect me to do?"

She rolled her eyes.

Soon. their food was served. Just as she had had a few sips of her coffee, her phone started ringing.

She glanced at the caller ID before answering the call, "Morning...Yeah, Yeah. have you checked over the documents already? Okay...wait what?" Her expressions changed slightly, "How is that even possible...? Are you sure?" She hung up the call and glanced at Jun Zixuan with a weird gaze.

"What is it?" Jun Zixuan raised an eyebrow.

Yu Mei pushed herself to her feet as she walked to the other side before standing beside him and massaging his shoulders without speaking anything.

His brows rose further, "What's wrong?"

"Can't I just dote on you without any reason?"

Jun Zixuan grabbed her hand before moving his chair slightly backward and pulling her onto his lap.

"Ah, why are you pulling stunts on me?" She glared at him as her arms encircled around his neck.

Jun Zixuan nodded, "See, now this is your kind of doting. You will fight with me and glare at me with those beautiful angry eyes even though I know you like to be pulled onto my lap as much as I love to pull you."

She smiled, "You exposed me."

"I haven't," He said, looking at her dress, "But I can expose you,'' He whispered against her lips.

Her face reddened, "Wait, I have something I have to ask you."

He bit her lips, "Why do you have so many questions for me all the time?"

She shrugged, "You are my encyclopedia."

"I should be honored then. Ask now," He sighed helplessly.
