Married to his secret crush-Chapter 400 - Come Alone
'Take a shower and eat something before you go to bed'
This was the text that Jun Zixuan had sent to her while she was in the meeting.
Yu Mei glanced at the time. It was past 11 o' clock. The day had been hectic. From Han Jingyi's incident to her being admitted in hospital, then being discharged later that day. After that, her parents came to meet her....for the first time, everything was emotionally overwhelming. 𝒇𝒓eewe𝒃𝑛𝒐𝘃𝒆𝚕.co𝘮
At that time however, Yu Mei did not think that the night would be approaching on this note. She never expected Shen Lihua to be sick all of a sudden.
Taking a deep breath, she stood up deciding to take a bath first before heading to hospital.
Steward Gu, who was standing outside the slightly ajar door, heard the sound of the bathroom door opening and closing. He dropped a text to Jun Zixuan, informing him that Yu Mei changed her mind and is taking rest like he wanted.
''Serve dinner in Young Mistress's room before you close the door so she can take rest. Make sure ti not disturb her,'' He spoke to one of the servants before heading back to his room.
Around midnight.
Yu Mei slowly opened her eyes, only to cover them with the back of her palm a second later, unable to adjust to the glaring lights. Her body felt cold and stiff.
She rubbed her eyes before looking around as let them adjust to the lights.
A soft sigh escaped her lips as she noticed that she ended up dozing off in the bathtub. Her back was aching so she had decided to soak in warm water but she did not realize when the exhaustion of the whole day took over.
Her legs were numb and it took her some time to get out of the tub.
Putting on a robe, she walked out of the bathroom.
She picked up her phone from the bed to check if she got any texts from Jun Zixuan or Shi Luo regarding Shen Lihua's condition while she dried her hair with the other hand.
Before she could look through it, a few texts from an unknown number caught her attention.
Curious, she clicked on the number before checking the texts that she received.
'Bam' The hair dryer landed on the floor and her expressions changed the moment she saw the pictures which had Mia in them, in bloodied and bruised condition.
Her birthmark was visible in the pictures and she was in her fox form, curled up in a corner with cuts and bruises all over her body, her blood was soaking her snowy furs.
Yu Mei's lips trembled slightly and she felt her blood running cold. She took a step back before sitting on the bed.
Putting her phone aside, she inhaled a deep breath while trying to think rationally. It should not be Mia.
Mia is so powerful and there was no way someone can do this to her. She convinced herself with this again and again but still there was this nagging feeling in her heart that she was unable to shake off.
Mia was not around since days...
She closed her eyes trying to shake off the negative emotions consuming her mind, 'Mia... Mia... Where are you?'
If Yu Mei did not remember it wrong, Mia's body always appeared on its own whenever she called her name.
Mia also told her once that she will appear whenever she called her.
With a little bit of hope left in her heart, Yu Mei once again looked around the room but much to her disappointment, Mia was not around.
Yu Mei checked the pictures once again and the rims of her eyes turned slightly red, ''It shouldn't be you...'' She whispered as she scrolled down.
Han Jingyi... the name came to her mind the moment she noticed an address at the end of the trail of pictures.
Followed by the address, there was a note added.
'You are supposed to come alone if you want this thing breathing'
Yu Mei closed her eyes for a moment before she pushed herself to her feet. She untied her robe and stepped inside the walk in closet to get dressed.
After putting on her black leather jacket, she opened the drawer lock by entering a pin code and looked at the guns lying in there.
When she woke up in this body, she did not have any access to these but after she regained her identity, she got them back just in case. She looked at them blankly for some time before she picked one up.
Grabbing the bike keys, she walked downstairs and made her way inside the underground parking before looking for the bike that she saw the last time she came here with Jun Zixuan.
At Amaranthine airport.
''Did something happen?'' Han Jian Yu removed the mask from his face as he glanced at Danny who approached the car with a serious expression on his face.
''Young Miss's mother-in-law is admitted in hospital,'' Danny informed the man.
Han Jian Yu frowned, ''Make arrangements. We will go back,'' While speaking, he took out his phone to call Yu Mei but as he noticed the blank screen, he handed it to Danny, ''Get it charged.''
''Boss... Are we going back?'' Danny asked as he took the phone from the man's hand.
''Get the private jet ready. We will go back now.''
Danny wanted to say that they just landed and they had work left here but Han Jian Yu did not look like he would change his mind so he did not say anything else.
Sunshine Hospital.
''Her condition has been improving all this while but she should have been on her medications and not taken stress. We still find Leukemia cells in her body and her blood pressure is fluctuating, leading to hypertension. And even the heart... if her current condition persists, then I'm sorry to say that it might lead to heart failure....'' The doctor paused talking as he felt a shiver running down his spine.
