Married to his secret crush

Chapter 327 - Got It Tattooed



''You are annoying,'' Mia glanced at his lips, feeling the slight tension in the air. Just as he leaned a bit more closer to her, she pushed herself to her feet, ''Just say that you liked my gift, why pretend otherwise?''

Han Jian Yu glanced at her quietly, the scent of wilderness that she gave off was still lingering in the air, somewhere around him because of the earlier proximity between them.

Under his intense stare, she averted her gaze, ''Come, feed me.''

''Feed you...'' He placed the windchime in the box and stood up, thrusting one of his hands inside his pocket, ''With what?" Her words were rather meaningful to his ears.

''The dinner you made?'' Her brows tugged together.

''Yeah," The corner of his lips tugged up as he walked inside the kitchen.

Mia was bewildered. What's with this weird behavior?

As they sat at the dining table while having dinner together, Han Jian Yu noticed that she had no restraints in eating. She ate elegantly with her back straight but her eating quantity was rather huge...

Having seen women taking small bites of food for reasons like diets, detox, botox, or whatever, he found her to be a refreshing sight.

''Do you like it?"

''You make good food,'' Food so good that even a fox spirit like her is not able to resist it.

As she was about to say something, his phone started ringing. Han Jian Yu picked up his phone from the dining table before answering the call.

''Boss, I have sent you that model's picture,'' Danny said from the other side.

Han Jian Yu hung up on the call before checking the text. His eyes darkened slightly as he glanced at the first picture. It was the picture of her car which was found at that location.

As he scrolled down further, his expressions turned chilly at the sight of the woman in the picture.

''What's wrong?"

Han Jian Yu turned his phone towards her, ''Is this your car?" He showed her the picture of the car that was found in that place. As she nodded, he asked, ''Base 2, Central City... Have you been there before?"

Mia glanced at him quietly for a few seconds. She picked up a silk napkin and cleaned her mouth. Her actions were slow, unhurried, and elegant, ''I have been there a few days ago. There was something weird about that place and my car was not working so I ran away from there and booked a cab when I was at a distance.''

Han Jian Yu narrowed his eyes. She did not seem to be lying but... ''Why would you go there?"

''Because of my fox,'' Mia said, ''I was just passing by that place and I parked my car on the roadside because of a phone call. But my pet disappeared. I thought it went into that alley so I looked for her but I could not find her at all,'' She lied without batting an eyelid.

Han Jian Yu tilted his head to the side. That white fox belonged to her?

''It originally did not belong to me. I found it from somewhere...'' She said.

''I met it...'' He recited the incident where he found that white fox but there was still some doubt in his heart. Everything she was saying seemed to be logical but there was something amiss in it and he could not quite put a finger on what it was.

''You did?" Mia acted surprised. Of course, she saw the doubt in his eyes. She slowly lifted the silver bangs from her forehead, ''See this...''

Han Jian Yu turned to look at her face. There was a crimson lotus mark on her forehead. His brows tugged together slightly. This familiar mark... He had seen it on the little fox before. Some thoughts flashed in his mind but they were so fast that he could not get a grip on them.

''Isn't it cool? My pet had this birthmark on her head so I got it tattooed,'' Mia said as she smiled.

The last bit of doubt in his heart vanished. She knew the fox's gender and she even knew about this birthmark and her words were quite believable without a single flaw in them. ''It's good,'' It looked good on her face.

Mia was a bit stunned as she never expected him to compliment it. Back in those times, birthmarks were taken as scars, and even if one had a minuscule scar on their face, they were mocked and ridiculed as it was taken to be inauspicious.

Even as a Princess, her birthmark was talked about but once her father punished a woman for the offense, and after that nobody talked about it.

''Aren't you worried about your fox?" His curious voice snapped her out of her trance.

''Didn't you say she was with you?" Mia acted like she was unaware of it.

''She ran away,'' There was a hint of worry in his eyes.

And she noticed it. The corner of her lips tugged up, ''I am not worried for her because she is more intelligent than humans. Maybe she has found her real home or she has gotten herself a male fox to sleep with. What are you worried about?''

Found a male fox to sleep with? The corner of his lips twitched. It was true that she was extremely smart but...

Han Jian Yu picked up the glass of wine before taking a few sips.

Mia inwardly sighed in relief. It was not that she did not trust him but for some reason, she did not want to tell him her truth. She was uncomfortable just at the thought of it.

What would he see her as?

''Well, I should get going. It's time for bed,'' She stood up from the chair and stretched her hands.

He noticed how her dress went a few inches higher, revealing her milky thighs. His gaze darkened slightly, ''Isn't it too early to sleep?" His words came out in a whisper.
