Married to his secret crush Chapter 10
Advertisement
"Fine," Jun Zixuan said as he leaned back on his chair.
"Thank you," she said softly, grateful that he agreed to the divorce. He has always been a gentleman and she knew that.
At this point, it would have been the best idea to leech off to him until she made some money to survive. But she was neither a fool nor as greedy as the previous owner of this body.
Yu Mei would rather starve herself than getting trapped in this sort of relationship. She did not want to deal with Jun Zixuan, who was already frustrated with the girl's toxic ways neither did she want to go around giving explanations for everything she has done, like what was shown in the CCTV footage.
She had things to do, goals to achieve, she must talk to her brother and tell him that she was still alive, there was her revenge waiting for her.
She had to get her hourglass figure first, to make it convenient for her to move around.
Although this face was ugly and scar-ridden, Yu Mei did not care about that.
A person's beauty was never seen by their face.
She must be independent for everything she wanted to achieve, she did not want complications. She wanted to get rid of this marriage in the first place since it would be best for both parties.
At this point, the woman would never have thought that fate had some other plans for her.
Yu Mei frowned as she looked at her breakfast. Deep-fried chicken wings?
"Steward Gu," she called out for the man, knowing that he was somewhere nearby.
Although, they were going to get a divorce now but before that, she could take a little teeny-tiny bit of advantage of her husband's wealth and status. "Get me a glass of fresh orange juice," she said.

Steward Gu looked at her in disbelief. Orange juice? She did not like fruits before, what happened now?
"And yes, since you are responsible for my meals, don't throw such garbage in front of me as food. I'll give you the diet chart later, prepare the food accordingly till I'm living here," she said as she looked at the maid who seemed to be glaring at her with an irritated gaze.
The female servant coyly glanced at the Master, hoping for some comfort after being scolded or at least wanting him to reprimand Yu Mei but the man remained expressionless as if it had nothing to do with him.
"Alright, Madam," the servant named Lisa addressed her intentionally as such and glanced at the man sitting on the head chair of the dining table.
His eyes darkened when she was addressed with that title, and the Lisa inwardly cheered.
It worked, it has always worked and it would always work. This woman would never be accepted as the mistress of this place.
Now Master would snap at this idiotic woman, she thought to herself.
When she got married and moved into the Ren Palace, Yu Mei Zhen demanded to be addressed as 'Madam'. And she purposely addressed her that way in front of Jun Zixuan, which led to a blunder when the man got provoked.
Steward Gu who brought over the orange juice coldly glared at the woman. He knew she was doing it on purpose, to make Yu Mei look bad while she gets Master's attention, it seems like he has been lenient with the people under him.
"It's Miss Yu for you," Yu Mei spoke up before anyone could say anything.
She was not afraid of anyone or anything, it was just the title 'Madam or mistress' that seemed like a burden to her little heart.

She was not mistress of this place neither did she want to be.
Lisa gritted her teeth as she looked at Jun Zixuan whose expressions slightly shifted before he looked back at his phone. 'Ugly pig, you just wait,' she cursed under her breathe while glaring at the woman sitting nonchalantly.
Yu Mei stood up from the chair before walking towards the staircase. She did not feel like eating or drinking anything at all. For the first time in life, walking felt like a struggle.
"Tell me your conditions."
The magnetic voice stopped her in her tracks as she turned around to look at Jun Zixuan who was sitting with his back facing towards her.
He was still as aloof as she remembered him to be.
She knew that she probably had nothing at this point. She lost the identity of Han Mei, she lost her life once.
And now, as Yu Mei Zhen, she was left as an abandoned heiress, that too an illegitimate child who was a good-for-nothing. She neither was good-looking nor had a penny with her.
All that she has got was a husband. She had to admit that Yu Mei Zhen was given every privilege in the mansion except for being accepted as the Mistress. One would notice it just with one look at her pink-themed princess-style bedroom.
She was provided with anything she wanted which led Yu Mei Zhen to live a carefree life without worries, the girl did not even bother to go to the university.
She lazed around in the mansion, kept eating like a glutton, and tried every scheme to get close to her husband who she had barely seen four to five times or something as such.

Romance - plus Judgemental Powers? Completed
Blue was a red headed boy who desperately wanted a girlfriend. So he asked the class beauty to walk home with him. She very nicely refused him. So he asked another girl in the same class, one with an average rating in the social status ranking. She also refused him. So, still desperate, he thinks – “I’m probably at the bottom of the ranking for boys in this class, so how about I ask the girl who is also at the lowest ranking?” The girl’s name was Pink. She said yes. Gulp. “What do I do now?” was his reaction. Well, obviously, have a romance. And, along the way, they get one hell of a lot more than they bargained for. Like, for example, supernatural Judgemental Powers. How did they get those? And that was only the start. The two most insignificant students in their class become famous. Not just in their class or even in their school, but to the population at large. They end up breaking and making the top politicians and rulers of their country. But finally, of course, they get what they wanted. A committed relationship. This is an Esmeralda the Angel of Death story. It follows on from my previous novel “Maybe it would have been a good idea not to wish for a harem?”, however it is a totally separate story with only a minimal overlap in the characters. There is no need to read the first story to enjoy this one. Although you just might enjoy the first story also… This story has multiple characters and multiple Points of View. Every POV change is clearly marked with a new header. Inside each POV section, the POV character’s thoughts are in italics. This story has about 105,000 words (about 380 RoyalRoad pages). It is fully written and proof read (the poor man’s proof read using Word). It has 25 chapters, and will be published at the rate of roughly one chapter per day.
