Married to his secret crush-Chapter 367 - Kidnapped

Han Jian Yu coldly glanced at Steward Gu. If gaze could kill, Steward Gu would not have been alive till now.

Steward Gu was visibly unfazed as he straightened up, ''President Han, this way...'' He pointed his palm towards the backseat of the car before he went to open the door.

''Hello, brother-in-law,'' Jun Zixuan tilted his head from his iPad as he tilted his head to look at Han Jian Yu.

Han Jian Yu narrowed his eyes.

''My heart aches to see you like that,'' Jun Zixuan said, a lazy smile hanging on his face as he glanced at the man's dishevelled hair, ''Please get inside before my hands trip and something spills,'' He waved his iPad. ｆ𝘳e𝒆w𝗲𝐛𝘯𝐨νe𝚕.cｏ𝓶

Danny and Sunny were speechless and somewhat shaken.. Was their boss being threatened by their Young Miss's husband?

But their expressions changed further when Han Jian Yu went inside the car docilely.

''Smile brother-in-law. I feel bad when you look at me like that,'' Jun Zixuan leaned back on the seat as he fiddled with the iPad in his hand.

Han Jian Yu closed his eyes as he forced a smile on his face, ''You should not feel bad. There is nothing for you to feel bad about,'' He spoke through gritted teeth.

''Your tone sounds rather harsh,'' Jun Zixuan raked his fingers through his ash-blonde hair bringing them to the side.

''What do you want?" Han Jian Yu's fingers curled into a fist but he restrained himself.

At this moment, Jun Zixuan's casual expression finally shifted. His gaze turned serious as he turned to look at him.

...

Ren Mansion.

''What's going on?" Yu Mei frowned when a maid led her to the study. fre𝑒𝘸𝚎𝚋n૦ѵℯl.c𝒐𝘮

''We are acting on Master's order,'' The maid said politely.

Her frown got deeper. She was designing in the Master Bedroom when this maid came to told her that Jun Zixuan has summoned her to his study.

And Yu Mei was speechless. Summon? Between her and Jun Zixuan, there has never been any usage of such words. That man can barge inside her dormitory when he wanted. So, for him to call her this solemnly, this matter has to be something serious.

As she stepped inside the study, the door locked from inside and she was about to ask what was going on until her gaze landed on the man standing near the window.

''Jian Yu?" His back was facing towards her so she could not make out his expressions.

Han Jian Yu turned around to look at her.

She blinked. Her throat was choked up with myriad of emotions. It has been a few days since they argued and it has never happened before but despite that, she maintained her stance, ''What are you doing here?"

Han Jian Yu looked at her expressionlessly, ''Your man kidnapped me because I made you upset,'' He leaned back, finding it rather ridiculous.

Her lips parted in disbelief. She gawked at him like he was growing two heads, ''What did he do?"

''You heard me right.''

''And you let yourself be kidnapped?" It was Jun Zixuan's way of doing things. He did what he wanted in any way that he liked, hook or by crook but what about Han Jian Yu? When did he become so gullible?

At this point, one could easily see a sliver of embarrassment on Han Jian Yu's face.

Yu Mei was more curious about it.

But Han Jian Yu did not seem to have any intention of mentioning it.

After taking a deep breath, he walked towards her and held her hand before bringing her to the swivel chair. He made her sit on the chair before kneeling in front of her.

Yu Mei was stunned, ''What are you doing?"

''Shh...'' Han Jian Yu cupped her delicate palms in his large and scarred ones before he pressed his forehead on it, ''I was leaving today.''

''Where were you going?" She asked, a little confused.

''Back to Amaranthine.''

''Without telling me?"

''I did not plan to. I wanted to disappear until you are over you obsession of looking into the past matters.''

She pursed her lips, ''Brother, you can't do this to me. There is a line between protecting me and taking away my freedom.''

''I didn't...''

''You did. I have every right to know the truth.''

''But...''

''Since I am alive, you are laid back about it. But this second life did not came easily to me. There have been struggles and sacrifices behind it. Had it not been for Mi-'' Yu Mei paused as she took a deep breath realizing what she almost blurted in a moment of frustration, ''Had it not been for the miracle that happened, I would not have been alive till this day,'' It was all a stroke of luck on her part but to Mia, it was a sacrifice.

If Yu Mei was not this emotionally attached to Mia then she would have thought about paying back for what she owed her. But given their relationship, she was never concerned about what to pay her or anything. What always bugged her was the fact that she snatched a life from Mia. A life that Mia had always desired.

In her previous life, Mia had wanted Han Mei to die soon so that their contract would be over and then she can live the world on her own accord. But everything that happened trapped her forever to Yu Mei's side.

The amount of love she had for Mia was much more than the guilt in her heart and it burdened her at times.

Yu Mei sighed, ''Brother, I don't want to die again,'' She wanted to live, ''I want to know the truth so that I know what is coming at me. So that I won't be caught off guard and assassinated in the middle of the forest,'' Her palms trembled and she retracted her hand from his grip before stroking her wrist, an action she had not done in a long time.
