Married to his secret crush

Chapter 283 - I Am Resigning



"States. Rejoining my dream job. Anyways..." Su Ning hugged Yu Mei, "Happy journey.''

Yu Mei smiled, "To you too,''

Su Ning hugged Jun Zixuan, "Happy journey,'' Perhaps it was for the best that she placed an end to that toxic relationship. It was not easy to get over a man whom she adored all her youth but she found it easier to breathe at this moment and she believed it will be better with time.

Jun Zixuan sighed as he patted her back, ''Find yourself a better man this time. Don't go around dating people blindly," His words targeted both the women.

Su Ning rolled her eyes while Yu Mei continued glaring at him until they got inside the car.

''You taunted me there.''

He pinched her cheeks, ''Did I?"

"You did,'' She swatted away his hand.

He laughed, ''I am curious.''

''About?"

"You,'' He glanced at her.

'It won't end well if you start getting curious about any other woman,' She thought. "What are u curious about?" came her quick question.

''How did Jun Zihao saw your birthmark?"

''Uh... It gets pretty visible in such swimming suits and attires,'' It was just kind of puppy love for her even though it left a deep impact on her teenager self but they had not gone that further.

''Then he saw the birthmark on Han Mei's body?" As she nodded, he smiled, ''Very well.''

She blinked, cowering back in her seat. His smile at this moment was shouting 'I am one step away from blasting but no...I won't show it on my face. Never'.

She gulped and quickly grabbed his shoulder, ''Baby, how about we swim together someday? We have never done it before," She blinked her starry eyes.

And the ice in his eyes melted. He loosened his collar, clearing his throat. ''Sure.''

She smiled in victory.

He sighed, knowing that it was her little scheme to divert his attention. Just how easy he was to be seduced?

"Since he saw it on Han Mei, he should know you as Yu Mei Zhen...'' Jun Zixuan narrowed his eyes, "How did he get to know that you both are the same person?''

Her lips twitched. What a tough man! He wasn't going off-topic anytime soon, was he?

He raised an eyebrow, prompting her to speak.

''Uh...'' She awkwardly tucked the loose strands of her hair behind her ear, tilting her head downwards, ''He was in the gray area, hovering near I could be Han Mei and I could also not be her. I confessed the truth and brought him to the white area.''

The corner of his lips twitched, "Had you been this honest with me, half of our problems would never have existed.''

She pouted slightly. She had her own struggles in mind.

"And what did you tell him?" He was not going to melt this time. No. Even though his hands reached out to pull her in a hug.

''Why should I tell you?" Her fingers drew circles on his chest.

''Because....'' His hand slid down her back as his fingers settled on her waist, "Two can play the game,'' Before she could comprehend the meaning of his words, her body jolted as his fingers tickled her.

This ruthless man..."Hahaha...S-Stop...I'll t-tell..." She slumped into his arms, ''I didn't tell him anything. He just assumed that I was hiding my real identity from him during our relationship. He thought that I am Yu Mei and I was pretending to be Han Mei when I was with him.''

''And what was the need for you to confess to him that you are his ex-girlfriend?" The last term left a bitter taste in his mouth but he needed to understand how her brain processed so he would not be caught off guard by something else in the future.

''Well, you weren't talking to me that night after that ice cream incident. So, I snapped at him and revealed it.''

A vein on his forehead throbbed.

"Don't give me that look. Had you not ignored me, this would not have happened. I would not have told him about it. Basically, men are the root of all complications.''

"And women sure do know how to shift blame. I was ignoring you because I could see it that you truly did not like blueberry ice cream as he said,'' It was frustrating that another man knew her more than he did and he was not even aware of the kind of relationship they had because she never told him.

He understood it now that she told him everything but at that time, he felt conflicted at many points. Especially when Jun Zihao came into the picture. From the very first day in the garden, he noticed the unusual air between them as much as they masked it.

She pressed a soft kiss on his jaws, "I am sorry,'' She whispered, "...It was never my intention to make you feel like that. I just thought that you would not know and we will be fine like the way we were. But...I just realized that secrets don't sit well in relationships,'' She sighed, "Don't hold grudges anymore, okay?"

''I was just curious...'' and a bit jealous. He grabbed her hand before kissing her knuckles, ''...I can never bring myself to hold grudges against you.''

...

Beijing.

12 am, Sunshine Hospital.

'Bam'

Shi Luo kicked the door of the Chairman's office as she barged inside, ''Here is my resignation,'' She slammed the papers on the table.

The middle-aged man adjusted his glasses, ''Manners, Dr. Shi.''

''Manners my foot, have you taken me for a cow who will work her ass off so that you can suck benefits for your hospital? I, Shi Luo, am not a woman whom an old fox like you can manipulate.''

The man cleared his throat. It was true that he never left a chance to extort some benefits from her. After all, she was a world-famous skin specialist. Wealthy people from various nations have to queue up for an appointment. How could he not take little advantages when she became a doctor at his humble abode?

"I. am. resigning," Shi Luo snarled, snapping him out of his daze.

''You have signed a contract.''
