Chapter 34 - I Am Not Yu Mei Zhen (1/2)

”You can sit here,” She pointed towards the bed before sliding a little towards the side, giving him more space.

The man raised an eyebrow before sitting on the bed.

The polite smile on her face faded a little. Since when did he become so obedient? Did he have to sit here just because she said that? ”Cough…so I did not mean to do that…” She raised both her hands before sticking them together, trying to imitate their hug position from earlier.

”Oh, that?” Amusement flickered in his eyes.

She could feel the heat rising her neck, ”I…I am just afraid of dark… So..” Here comes a bad lie!

He pressed the back of his hand on her forehead, ”Your fever is gone…”

She blinked, ”That…T-thank…” For god's sake, stop stammering, will you? She cursed herself in her heart before taking a deep breath, ”Thank you for taking care of me and sorry for being a burden.”

”The way you were shouting my name….” The man indifferently looked at her, ”It felt like some old lover is calling out to me.”

She choked, ”Cough… Who is your old lover? Don't talk nonsense.”

”Didn't expect you to know my name,” The man said looking straight into her dark eyes.

She froze.

Her mind went blank.

Dammit! How could she forget that?!

Seems like the fever made her muddle-headed. Now, what was she going to do?

Tell the truth? Will he believe her? What if he didn't?

The man did not speak a single word as he watched the myriad of emotions flashing on her face. He was trying to gauge out the truth from her face.

She closed her eyes to take a deep breath. The moment she opened them, they had regained their usual calmness, ”One day after I woke up from the coma, I got to know your name,” She was not lying here. The day when she woke up, she didn't have a single memory of the previous owner.

It was only the next day when she got all the information. Once she saw his face in her memory, she recognized him as her friend even when the original owner didn't know his name.

His cold eyes were looking through every small detail and she was sure of that.

''How did you know?” He asked.

She raised an eyebrow, ”I am not Yu Mei Zhen,” She softly said looking at him with an unwavering gaze.

”That's impossible,” He replied without missing a beat.

And this concludes the end of the discussion, she thought to herself.

”Whatever it is doesn't concern you. You should remember that our relationship is nothing but an illusion. We are no real husband and wife who are supposed to share everything,” She pulled the blanket towards her waist before leaning back on the headrest of the bed.

Looking at him with a serious gaze, she continued, ”I have my secrets. I won't be lying about that. But that doesn't mean I want to share them with you. Moreover, you have your secrets too. Although I know your name, I don't know what you do neither do I have any idea about your family. Living in a place like this, you must be pretty rich.”

What she did not know was that living in Ren Mansion was not just a matter of being wealthy. Just anyone with money would not be able to afford it.

One must be powerful and influential to be living in this place.
