Married to his secret crush

''Shi Luo!"

''Mom, wait here. I'll go get him,'' Shi Luo dashed inside the room within a split second.

''This girl....'' Shi Xia was speechless.

Shi Xia sat on the long couch while Jun Boyan and Shi Luo sat on the opposite single couches.

"Mom... It was a one-time thing. We won't see each other ever again. I don't like him as you think..."

Jun Boyan glanced at her grievously.

"Shut up!" Shi Xia snarled, "Shi Luo, do you take me for a fool?"

...

After Shi Xia left, Shi Luo slumped in Jun Boyan's arms weakly, "Why is my mom so scary?"

"I think she is cute," Jun Boyan shrugged when she glared at him.

"Do you know her better than me?" Shi Luo rolled her eyes, "Why didn't you tell me that mom knew about us?"

"Did you give me the chance to speak?"

Shi Luo was embarrassed, ''But she seemed to be fine with our relationship even though she was acting otherwise.''

Jun Boyan nodded, ''Maybe, what happened yesterday changed her mind.''

''Was mom aware of it?" Shi Luo was stunned.

He nodded again, ''She was here to meet you yesterday and I received a call from my brother at that time.''

''I was lying to her so blatantly...''

Jun Boyan walked behind her as he hugged her from the back, ''You didn't want her to worry. There is nothing wrong with it.''

Shi Luo leaned back into his embrace, ''So, we don't need to hide our relationship anymore?"

Jun Boyan kissed her neck, ''Of course. What's there to hide?"

Shi Luo smiled but her brows tugged together suddenly, ''What about Zixuan and Mei?"

''Sister-in-law had a meeting so she left after I brought you home and Brother accompanied her.''

''And...'' She paused for a moment, ''What about her...? Han Jingyi... I mean.''

''She.... is dead,'' Jun Boyn said after a few seconds.

Shi Luo was stunned. She turned around to look at him.

What happened at that time was Han Jingyi intended to shoot Shi Luo but before she could do that, Jun Boyan shot her hand and the pistol slipped from her grip. Then, after that, Jun Zixuan's men captured her and her bodyguard surrendered on his own will, in an attempt to save her.

But Han Jingyi took his gun and shot herself in the dead.

Shi Luo sighed before wrapping her arms around his waist, ''She is gone,'' She did not know what she felt about it.

Life was indeed unfair to Han Jingyi but she could have made out of it victoriously. Instead, she chose to be greedy, she stole everything that belonged to others and decided to call it hers. Even after that, she did not want anyone to accuse her of being a thief.

Maybe it was not the years of trauma, it was her own wrong decisions regarding all those incidents that led her to this point where she lost her sanity.

After a few minutes of silence, Shi Luo spoke up again, ''I am curious. How did you find out about our whereabouts?'' After all Han Jingyi seemed to be pretty secretive about her location.

Jun Boyan stiffened, ''Luoluo...''

''Hmm?" Shi Luo looked into his eyes.

''You remember that someone removed the patients' database from the hospital records?''

''How can I forget about that? I was troubled for it for so long,'' Shi Luo sighed but then she suddenly paused, ''Why are you mentioning that though?"

''Because I was the one who did it. I wanted to erase mom's personal information but I knew the director would bug you to find out more about it because he knows you are close to the Jun Family. So, I removed some of the other patients' data randomly but I did not expect you to be still implicated by it,'' He said regretfully.

''You hacked into the hospital database?'' Shi Luo's lips parted. She had no idea about how all that worked but she was certain all the members of the IT department were at their wits' end because of this hacker who they could not get a hold of.

''I did. The part-time job that I spoke of. It was this. I pick up A-grade tasks and accomplish them,'' he said.

''So... Have you done illegal stuff?" Shi Luo glanced at him.

''I've hacked into the government database... does it counts?" Jun Boyan scratched the back of his neck.

Shi Luo stepped back from him and crossed her arms in front of her chest, ''What do you think?"

''Cough... of course, I did it to find the corrupt officials who had secretly colluded with a criminal organization,'' He smiled cheekily when she blinked.

''But still, it's dangerous,'' Shi Luo pouted.

Jun Boyan stepped closer to her and poked her cheeks, ''How cute!'' He kissed her forehead.

Shi Luo glanced at him for a few seconds before she kissed his chin.

''Luoluo, when are we going back to Beijing? You came all the way to here for me and I am certain that you are extending your break.''

Shi Luo was quiet for a moment as she lowered her head, ''Yes, I need to go back to work,'' She thought she had been working for way too long and it was time for her to find some peace in a long holiday.

She was satisfied by the results of this break because the misunderstandings between Jun Boyan and her were solved and she was no longer an ignorant fool who would start assuming things in this relationship. She had learned her lessons already.

And the next good thing that happened was... Han Jingyi no longer existed in their lives. Being happy about a person's death might be morally inappropriate but Shi Luo had no regrets. From now on, they won't have to live under a constant fear that something might happen to them or their close ones.

The Han Family might be sad and heartbroken after their adopted daughter's death but they will eventually come around to the fact that Yu Mei gave her a chance and she was the one who did not cherish it.

Now that Yu Mei was pregnant, there was no guarantee that that crazy woman would not have tried to harm her baby in the future as she did with all of them.

But now, there was no reason left for them to worry about.

Despite everything, Shi Luo was missing her work. She liked spending time with Jun Boyan here but she was missing the air of Beijing, ''Let's go back tonight. I'll book the flight tickets,'' she turned around and glanced at Jun Boyan.

He gazed at the bright smile on her face, ''In fact....'' he paused.

''Hmm?" Shi Luo blinked.

Jun Boyan shook his head. He pulled her closer to himself and stole a kiss from her lips, ''Let's go back tonight.''

Shi Luo smiled.

...

At Amaranthine airport.

As Jun Boyan was denied entry inside by security, he was speechless.

Shi Luo turned around and smiled at him. She grabbed his hand and dragged him to the side, ''Where do you think you are going?"

''I thought we were going back?" Jun Boyan blinked.

''With just one ticket?" Shi Luo waved her phone, showing him the only ticket which had her name on it.

''Didn't you book it for me?"

''Why would I?" Shi Luo chuckled when she noticed the stunned expressions on his face, ''Boyan, when I was packing our clothes, I found this,'' she waved the airline ticket in her hand.

It was a ticket to Florence, Italy.

''You intended to go to Italy to continue studying culinary arts.''

''That was a plan from...''

''I don't care when, why or how you made this plan but I know how much you love it. There is no reason for you to change your plans.''

''I don't want to leave you when we just got together,'' the man confessed and tilted his face to the side, the tips of his ears turned red.

Shi Luo ended up smiling. How adorable! She stood on her tiptoes and kissed his cheek, ''It's just one year. Even I don't want to stay away from you....'' she paused when he looked at her with glowing eyes, ''But I noticed that you hesitated for a few seconds when I asked you to come back with me. That means, somewhere in your heart, you want to go to Italy and stick to your original plan.

I don't want you to end up with regrets, Boyan.

Jun Boyan wrapped an arm around her waist and quietly pulled her into his arms.

Shi Luo kissed his shirt, ''It's not like I am running away. I am here. I believe 1 year will go by in a flash and soon, you will be right next to me. Meanwhile, I have never tried long-distance relationships. I have heard that it's quite cool. We can try it?"

''Cool?'' Jun Boyan pulled back to glare at her, ''Get me one person who will agree with you. Long-distance relationships tend to end on a tragic note. How is that cool?"

''Alright, alright, I was just saying that to coax you,'' Shi Luo pouted, ''But on a serious note, it's not like we won't be meeting each other. I have never been to Italy before so I can visit you on weekends.''

''That'd be too tiring for you. I will come to meet you.''

''Everything works. We can facetime each other.''

Jun Boyan nodded, ''But I will miss you,'' he said in a soft voice.

''It's just one year, Boyan,'' She handed his ticket to him and stood on her tiptoes before capturing his lips.

He cupped her face to hide it from people's view as he kissed her back.

As their lips parted, he pecked her lips gently before placing soft kisses all over his face.

Shi Luo pulled back from him, ''That's enough kissing already. I will call you when I reach there,'' As she said so, she stood on her tiptoes once again and kissed his chin.

Without giving him the chance to respond, Shi Luo turned around and entered inside.

Tears rolled down her eyes but she made no move to wipe them knowing that the man was still standing there, observing her every move. He would rush in right this moment and cancel all his plans if he saw her crying.

He was just a few steps away and she was feeling nostalgic already.

Is this the sweet ache of love? Is this how lovers feel when they part from each other.

In the end, Shi Luo did not turn around to look at him. One more look and she will end up rushing into his arms, forgetting her determination.

''It's okay. Italy, it is... I'll see the place next week,'' With that thought, a smile formed on her lips.

Jun Boyan glanced at her retreating back until he could not see her anymore. As soon as she was out of his sight, his heart felt heavy and it was as if he had to drag his body towards his car.

''She just left and I already feel like a patient suffering from some terminal disease... Ah!" He leaned his head on the steering wheel, letting his hands hang lifelessly on the sides.

''I will come to meet her every 5 days.... no, that's too much, I will take the chopper and come every 3 days. That's a better idea,'' With that idea, his lips tilted up, forming a small smile, ''Luoluo, don't be shocked later when that happens,'' he inhaled a deep breath and sat up straight.

Just as he was about to step on the accelerator, his phone started ringing. He glanced at the unknown number before answering the call, ''What? A scandal?!"

Jun Boyan hung up the call and checked the hot searches.
