Married to his secret crush

''Today…'' Shi Xia interrupted Shi Luo, ''I got another proposal for you.''

Shi Luo gulped her words when she heard that, ''Is it a marriage proposal?"

''What else can it be?" Shi Xia rolled her eyes, ''It's from our old neighbor, Aunty Wang. She showed me the picture of her nephew and tried to matchmake him with you.''

''Mom, what did you tell her?"

''Of course, I told her that my daughter has a boyfriend,'' Shi Xia smugly said, ''Although this boy was a decent potential son-in-law but the fact that Boyan is Lihua's son alone makes him the best choice for me. And to top it off, he is a very nice man, someone who is suitable for my precious,'' she held her daughter's hand before stroking her palm gently.

''Mom…'' Shi Luo bit her bottom lips.

''Mm? Do you have something to say to me?" f𝓇𝘦e𝑤𝘦𝚋𝒏૦ѵℯ𝒍.c𝐨𝒎

Shi Luo shook her head.

Shi Xia pushed herself to her feet before she raised her hand to pat Shi Luo's head, ''Your Aunty Lihua and I have been best friends. We once decided to have you get married to Zixuan…''

''I know…'' Shi Luo still had goosebumps over this. If by any chance, she had ended up as Jun Zixuan's wife, then nobody will know where her funeral was being held.

What the hell were these ladies thinking when they came up with such a blundering idea?

''But it's okay if it is not Zixuan. Even Boyan is raised well and I like that boy. I am very happy that you chose him. Now Lihua and I will be a family and all I want is for you to get married, and have a lot of babies in the future, I want you to be happy.''

Shi Luo wordlessly hugged her mother, ''I am older than him…'''

''Just a mere 2 year age gap. That'd make things exciting.''

Shi Luo: "_" What the heck are you talking about?

…

Later that noon, both the mother and daughter had their lunch together.

And after that, Shi Luo dressed up to visit Jun Boyan at his university. It was his graduation day and she was definitely going to surprise him with her sudden visit.

Crystal University is the oldest institution of higher learning in the United States and among the most prestigious in the world.

As she parked the car, Shi Luo glanced at the huge entrance of Crystal University. The memories of the past flashed in front of her eyes.

It seemed just like yesterday when Jun Zixuan used to act all innocent around Yu Mei. And Shi Luo remembered calling him a white lotus mentally. Mu Shen would laugh at her expression.

''And here I am… coming here to court his younger brother,'' Shi Luo had the urge to bang her head on the university wall.

Shi Luo wanted to go inside but it would be too high-profile since people will recognize her here so, in the end, she decided to wait outside.

Earlier, she had texted Jun Boyan and casually asked him how long it will take him. He told her that he will be done in 1 hour.

''30 minutes more,'' Shi Luo leaned back on her car and adjusted the shades on her eyes.

She had half an hour left to contemplate about what action she was going to take when he comes.

'Just grab his collar and pull him for a hot french kiss. He should take the cue from there,' these were Mia's exact words.

Shi Luo shook her head. It was an effective way but the person executing it should be more courageous. As much as she hated to admit it, she was a coward in such matters.

'Take him to your house and offer him an enticing contract and ask him to be your boyfriend,' this one was Li Shuang's suggestion.

''But I am trying to date him, not finalize a business deal,'' Shi Luo rolled her eyes.

'Rather than all this hassle, you can just confess your feelings and ask him what he feels about you,' Yu Mei was the one who suggested this.

Shi Luo sighed. Rather than the other two over-aggressive measures, she preferred Yu Mei's peaceful suggestion.

''Confess…'' Her brows furrowed, ''Where? How? And what do I say…? Ugh..''

Shi Luo straightened up when she saw a familiar figure, ''Is it over already?" Jun Boyan told her that there was time left then why is he walking towards the gates, ''It's better this way,'' The more she waited, the more it made her nervous.

Just as Shi Luo raised her hand to wave at him, her eyes caught sight of another figure beside him.

The girl looked somewhere around Jun Boyan's age. She was dressed in a white bodycon dress that enhanced her soft curves. Holding her jacket in one hand, she rushed towards him before grabbing his hand.

Shi Luo saw red. Was her poor sheep being hit on? These girls…

Her thoughts trailed off when she noticed Jun Boyan's expression. He was smiling and laughing, looking very casual and relaxed.

He let the girl hold his hand and he even wrapped an arm around her shoulder. From her angle, it sure looked intimate.

Shi Luo quickly moved behind her car when they stepped out of the gates, ''Dammit, why am I hiding?'' she cursed herself mentally. It's not like she did something wrong.

She tilted her head and blinked a few times before looking back at them.

Soon, a white Lamborghini stopped in front of Jun Boyan and a man in his late 40s stepped out.

It must be his driver. Shi Luo concluded, noticing their interaction.

The man opened the door to the driver's seat for Jun Boyan.

Jun Boyan on the other hand opened the door to the passenger seat for that 'youthful' and pretty girl from earlier.

Shi Luo bit the edge of her sleeves, ''She looks 20 or 21. I am about to turn 24,'' one could say that age was her reverse scale lately.

It was quite provoking to her when the topic 'age' came into a discussion.
