Married to his secret crush

Shi Luo and Yu Chen sat on the couch in the living room while Jun Boyan went to the kitchen to make coffee for them.

''Dr. Shi…''

''You can call me Shi Luo,'' she waved her hand nonchalantly. Perhaps it was her strange way of thinking, but she did not want Jun Boyan's friends to address her so respectfully. That made her feel old. The crisis of age was real in her heart.

''Uh…. I have heard a lot about you,'' Yu Chen scratched the back of his neck shyly, ''Who could have known that Boyan is…'' he paused, realizing that he was about to let the cat out of the bag.

''Boyan is?" Shi Luo blinked in confusion.

''Sigh… Although he might look like a conman with that face or a risky guy who would play around with many girls, he might come off as rude, arrogant, ill-tempered, picky about many things and…''

''And?" Jun Boyan interrupted the man.

Yu Chen's jaws dropped. ''Let me finish it first. Don't misunderstand my intentions,'' he quickly glanced at Shi Luo, ''He might be all that but as they say, you should never judge a book by its cover. You should go ahead and date him rather than letting him wither in his unrequited love for you. I can't see my friend…''

''You… Shut up!"

''Don't stop me. Today, I am going to say it out for your own sake. What happened last time gave me insomnia,'' Yu Chen glared at him before he inched closer to Shi Luo, ''He always had a bad temper but lately, it has gotten worse. He even stalked you on your blind date and I was turned into a stalker as well….mmm.''

''What nonsense are you talking about?" Jun Boyan placed his palm tightly over his mouth to stop him from speaking any further.

Shi Luo: "_"

''You… You were there to keep an eye on my blind date?" she looked at him in disbelief.

Jun Boyan smiled sweetly at her, ''How could it be…ugh…'' he groaned when he felt something piercing his palm, ''Why the heck would you bite me? Are you a dog?" he glared at Yu Chen.

Shi Luo pushed herself to her feet and walked towards Jun Boyan before holding his hand to stop him, ''Can you just let him speak?

''I am degraded to resort to this because of you. I have to do this because of you,'' he turned to look at Shi Luo, ''Miss Shi… Shi Luo, you have to accept his love for you. On the way to the restaurant, he drove the car like there was no tomorrow. During the whole ride, I kept getting thoughts like this was my last day on earth or we are going to cause a traffic accident. In the restaurant, he kept glaring at your date and those eyes were no less than lasers, I swear. I was getting goosebumps while sitting next to him. But still, he went there to keep an eye on that guy to know if he was worthy of you or not. If this is not love, then what is? If you don't accept him, my bad-tempered friend might really turn himself in prison one day or a mental asylum… Ahhh…'' a punch landed on his back out of nowhere, knocking the rest of his words.

…

''Hahahahaha….'' Shi Luo held her stomach as she leaned back on the reclining chair, laughing her heart out.

Jun Boyan's lips twitched. ''Are you done?" he leaned back on the railings of the balcony.

''Yes… Cough…'' Shi Luo straightened up on the chair, trying to look serious but as soon as her gaze landed on his aggrieved face, she could not help but burst out in laughter again.

''You…''

''Stalker Boyan,'' Shi Luo chuckled. She could not believe that she assumed he was out on a lunch date with other girls when he was there to keep an eye on her.

''Is it that funny, huh?" Jun Boyan kicked the coffee table aside with his leg as he stepped towards her. He placed his hands on either arm of the chair and lowered his body to her level.

Her breath hitched at the sudden proximity.

''When I heard you were out on a blind date, I regretted not taking any action before. Although I had feelings for you for such a long time, I let things move at their own pace without doing anything just because I was worried you don't feel the same. I kept feeding you all kinds of delicacies so you would get used to them. And when that time comes, you will miss me.''

''You… You were using my weakness for food…'' she glared at him.

''I was trying to seduce you with whatever I had,'' he sighed, ''And guess how I felt. It was something like my little white cabbage being dug up by a pig.''

''You sound like an old man,'' she tapped the tip of his nose.

He licked the tip of her finger.

Shi Luo pulled her hand back, her face turning red at his actions, ''I have been meaning to ask this…''

He wrapped an arm around her waist and pulled her up from the chair, ''Hmm?''

She placed her hands on his shoulders, ''What's the part-time job that you mentioned?"

He coughed, ''It's nothing important.''

''You can afford a place and cars like those with a job which is 'nothing important'? Do you think I would buy that?" Shi Luo rolled her eyes, ''It's another thing if you don't want to tell me about it.''

''There is nothing like that. It's just some IT stuff,'' he said vaguely, ''They have a variety of tasks and I randomly pick the ones I like and complete them to get paid. It's that simple,'' Tasks like hacking the government database or acquiring the information of criminal organizations.

Of course, he did not say the latter part aloud.

Shi Luo's lips parted, ''That's cool,'' she blinked, ''But you have always wanted to be a chef, haven't you?"
