"Didn't the restaurant feed you well?" she asks in a mocking tone.

"It did but I want to have a coffee now" he smirks at her. "Waiter! He calls out and Yi Ran comes smiling at their table, to see Shi Lian mainly.

"Yes sir. Your order?" he asks with the same warm smile. He glances at Shi Lian who is fuming with anger and irritation looking at Zichen so he ponders if he is harassing her or something.

"I'll have the same as her," he says to him, smirking at Shi Lian. The waiter notes it down and vanishes in the kitchen to bring his coffee.

"Can't believe the powerful and ruthless Mr. Fu followed me all the way here" she says sarcastically, rolling her eyes. Zichen does not make any reply and just stares at her with an amusing smirk.

'What's up with this jerk! Can't he just leave me alone?' she eyes him, her eyes narrowed. Not getting any reply, she minds her own business and eats the pastry treating him as air.

The waiter comes again and places the coffee and pastry on the table, at Zichen's side. He turns to Shi Lian and asks, "Do you like the coffee? And the pastry?"

"It's delicious. I liked it very much" she compliments, completely aware of Zichen's intense gawking at her and the waiter. The aura around is so domineering and chilly, that one might freeze to death just by his stare; that's the amount of dominance and power he holds.

"I am glad you like it" the waiter replies with interest, unware of Zichen's cold stare. He might be aware but has something that's challenging him.

Fu Zichen is fuming with jealousy and it's stinging in his body like ants biting. It's the first time he is feeling this kind of strong emotion and he cannot reciprocate what it is. Unable to control his cool, he grabs Shi Lian by her wrist and orders her, "We are going."

Confused, Shi Lian break through his grip and snaps at him, "I am not going anywhere with you!"

Yi Ran steps forward when Zichen tries to grab her wrist again, shielding her like saving a beauty in a damsel. "This is impolite, Sir"

"I don't need your opinion on it. Besides, I am asking my woman to come with me, is that a problem?" Zichen says aggressively with arrogance.

'My woman? Since when did I become his woman?' Before she can comprehend the situation, she is up in Zichen's arms. With a dominancy, he swoons her, carrying her into his arms, and walks out of the shop. Shi Lian's heartbeat is getting out of control, she is red all again and the smelled of fresh laundry on Zichen is making her turned on. "Put me down!" she protests like a stubborn child.

"Shush..stop fiddling or else I won't be able to control myself" he groans, in his husky and sexy voice. He is well aware of the paparazzi following him but at this moment the only thing he thinks is to take this stubborn yet extremely charming woman out of that shop.

"I said Put me down! It's gonna get worse if any paparazzi saw us!" she panics, looking to her right and left if to scan any paparazzi. She knows just how this can affect the company badly so she doesn't want to take risks by getting into anything related to Zichen.

"In my car" his response is short as he walks up to her car which is parked across the street. Aware of the crowd building as they cross the street, Shi Lian's is filled with embarrassment. Even though many of them do not know who Zichen is,as he always kept a low profile but his insanely handsome looks and lean muscular body can attract crowds like bees getting attracted to honey.

They reach to his car, he put Shi Lian into the backseat and takes the seat beside her. He orders his driver to start the car and in a second the car starts moving.

"What the hell are you doing?" she snaps at him, moving away from him and hitting the end side of the car window.

"You are not allowed to flirt with other men" he growls eyes boring at her, making her heart clench and pulsate.

"Who are you to order me like that?" she argues,bringing her hands front of her chest, gaining some confidence to fight against him and his dominant aura.

"Because you are mine, Shi Lian," he says possessively, cupping her chin, scooting closer to her side. Whenever he is near her, her heart beats uncontrollably which she cannot seem to stop or manage. Her face gets hot and red and her mouth dry.

"You…I am not your woman! And mind your distance!" she pushes him, hitting his chest not too hard but enough to make a weight felt against his chest.

"We will see" he grins pulling back and straighten his tie. He then grabs his phone from his coat pocket and dials a number, aware of Shi Lian's stare. "Junjie, handle the paparazzi for me...Yea, not a single piece of news about me should get featured...Will tell you later" he hangs up the call and puts his phone back in his pocket. "How long do you want to stare at me" he smirks, turning to her with a wild gaze.

"I just can't comprehend your actions," she says in a sigh like she is mentally tired by all this.

"You accepted the proposal and I am damn sure it was because to reach me and then the kiss…all these that you are doing..what does it actually mean?"

With the small remote, he closed the small window inside of his car that led to the driver's view, to have more personal space.

Gazing at her beautiful hazel-brown eyes, he scoots closer and says, "I honestly have no idea. The moment I saw you, I can't seem to think anything but you. Even after two months, I still can't forget you….you are just…I don't know. You captivated me."

There's a lot to digest for Shi Lian after listening to his confession. she doesn't even know this man and all of a sudden he is saying he is attracted to her? Just because they slept together once? Accidently.

He scoots closer leaving no space, no distance between them, hold her hand, and kissed gently at her fair knuckles. With that dreamy and sexy gaze, he looks at her face, in her eyes, trailing down to her luscious lips. Before he can proceed further, Shi Lian had him at hello,

"I need to go…"

"Where? To meet the flirty, sissy waiter?" he snaps with jealousy.

"That's none of your business! Let me go, Zichen!" she fires back, eyeing him with intense eyes.

"I just told you, you are my woman! And it's my damn business to know everything about you" he orders her, radiating his dominant alpha aura.

Biting her lower lip, she opens her mouth to argue with him again, "I need to reach the company! Can I go now?"

"Wang, to the Mo corp" he orders to the driver present in front and driving the car.

"On it Sir"

The car stops in front of the company and Shi Lian feels relieved as she is going to be free from him, away from him but who knows what's going on deep in her heart? "About the business proposal, I want to withdraw-"

"I signed it and we will be working together. There's no backing" he interrupts, sitting gracefully and looking flawless and sexy with rich air around him.

"Why are you so overly bossy?" she points it in a cranky way when she is annoyed.

"Because I can be" he grins, his brown eyes are dancing with humor.

The way he looks in the black sleek suit, with no tie and the upper two-button of his white shirt is open in a sexy way making him more charming and seductive. Shi Lian is aware of how attractive and sensual he is, which is the biggest problem when she is dealing with him and on top of that, he dominating.

"Narcissist" she mumbles.

Zichen arch an eyebrow, with a foxy smirk, "You said something?" She shook her head making an innocent face that makes Zichen's cheek rosy pink in his fair and spotless cheeks. He turns his way to the window side, trying to avoid her breathtaking cute face to not eat her here and there.

"What I said was true. Believe me" he says in a serious tone when Shi Lain jumps out of the car. She does not say anything because there's nothing for her to say. without looking back, she marches to the glass entrance of the company, not at all feel guilty for being rude because it was him who rudely took her to the car.

"We'll meet soon, Shi Lian" his voice dark and husky, making Shi Lian's skin hair rise. He has this unexplainable effect on her that it seems more and more difficult to get rid of. His car takes off and within a second he disappears.
