Married to his secret crush
Chapter 24 - Steal The Stem Before Divorce
It was already past 7:00 pm when Yu Mei reached Ren mansion. Because of the place being a highly restricted residential area, the taxi was stopped by the security guards at the entrance.
"Miss, I can't go any further. It's already dark. You should call your relative so that he can pick you up," the middle-aged man spoke in a kind voice.
Although the driver did not recognize her but living in Ren Mansion was not something ordinary wealthy people can afford.
"I… don't have relatives," She passed him the money before getting out of the taxi and entering the gate.
"Sigh…What a pitiful girl," A few simple words from her made the driver feel sentimental. No matter how rich a person is, some things can't be bought with money after all.
As Yu Mei walked on the cobblestone path, the feeling of loneliness almost gobbled her up. Usually, her brother would prepare bed tea for her. Before she could step down from the bed, he would put the shoes under her feet.
Such things would usually be done by the servants but he did everything by himself. When she had her first menstrual period, the 18-year-old Han Jian Yu personally taught her about those things after doing his research on it.
Whenever she had a fever, he will end up sleeping on the floor while taking care of her.
Those were very small things. Things that she never paid much attention to. Because somewhere, in her heart, she knew that he will always do that for her.
You realize how much those small things matter only when that person is not there around you anymore.
"If I had known I'll end up like this… then maybe I would have cherished you more…" She murmured to herself.
The mansion was at a distance of about 500 meters from the main entrance. As she walked further ahead, she felt a strong and sweet fragrance in the air.
The cool air of the evening grazing past her soft cheeks. She rubbed her hands together before placing them on her cheeks.
Entranced by the sweet fragrance, she looked around. There were streetlights and wooden benches placed on either side of the cobblestone path while long pine trees covered the further view.
She stepped on the gap between two trees trying to trail after the sweet fragrance and she would be lying if she said that she was not mesmerized by the beautiful sight.
Thousands of magenta-purple roses were shining under the dim fairy-lights in the garden.
As she stepped closer to them, her eyes brightened. She loved roses but these were the most beautiful roses she has ever seen.
She plucked a flower carefully before stroking its petals with gentle touches. "Beautiful…" The inner purple petals of the rose had hints of white-colored spider-web-like patterns. So rare… she has never seen such flowers.
"What are you doing?"
The deep magnetic voice startled her. Her grip on the rose tightened and the thorns pricked her palm in the process.
"Sssss…" She sucked in a breath of cold air. "Are you a ghost?" She patted her chest as she glared at the man.
Jun Zixuan glanced at the rose in her hand and his eyes narrowed slightly, "Give it back."
She looked at him in disbelief, "Do you have to be so stingy? It's only one rose… there are thousands of them here."
But the determination in his eyes did not waver as he looked at her with a stubborn gaze. It seemed like he was ready to fight her to death for the rose.
She did not know if there will be a third life and second husband waiting for her after her death.
It was not worth it, she thought to herself. She looked at the surroundings one last time before walking towards him.
"Here, take this," She extended her hand towards him holding the rose in between her thumb and index figures.
The man snatched the flower from her hand without hesitation before looking at her coldly, "Don't do this again," He left without looking back at her.
Her lips twitched. Do you have to be like this just because of a flower?
Seems like he caught her sneaking around and followed after her to see what she is up to.
"I'll be careful next time and get the stem of these rose plants before our divorce," She decided to buy a villa with a huge garden so that she can plant it.
She suddenly felt a dull pain in her thighs. That is when she remembered that she has been standing here for a long time and her body was thoroughly exhausted.
Dragging her fat body, she walked out of the garden. A black Bentley was parked on the cobblestone path. Knowing that it was that devil's car, she swiftly avoided it and walked ahead.
The car drove on her side as the glass panes rolled down and Steward Gu's head peeked out, "Miss Yu, get in."
"I am fine. I can walk," She immediately refused but the man insisted again.
Sighing, she walked towards the car and opened the front door before settling herself on the shotgun seat.
Luckily the car was spacious and her body could properly relax without feeling congested.
"Miss Yu, you should sit behind…" Steward Gu awkwardly pointed his chin towards the backseat.
"I like the company of kind and gentle guys. You happen to be one of them," She nonchalantly said while looking ahead.
Steward Gu was speechless. Is this something you should talk about in front of your husband?
She pulled out a handkerchief from her pink purse before dabbing it on her sweaty face. Walking such a long distance was such a hassle. And she would not be meeting kind people like Steward Gu every other day.
Should she buy a bicycle? But would it support her body?
Just as she was lost in her thoughts, Steward Gu extended the first-aid kit towards her.
She accidentally hurt her hand with the thorns of the rose.
She looked at him gratefully but before she could say something, he spoke up first, "It was Master who ordered me to give this to you."
"Miss, I can't go any further. It's already dark. You should call your relative so that he can pick you up," the middle-aged man spoke in a kind voice.
