A black car stops in front of her car. Gui stops the car in an instant, making Shi Lian yelp. "What's wrong?" she asks, looking at Gui and then at the front. As she scrutinizes and tries to see more clearly, she finds Rong getting out of the black car and approaching them.

Reaching her door, Rong knocks on the car window, giving her the same smile he always carries. She clicks to open the door and steps out of the car. Shutting the door, she stands facing him, her arms crossed in front of her chest, "What are you doing here?"

"Sir asked me to escort you" he smiles, his smile reaching up aking his eyes look short. This had her thinking about what he wants and every time he sends Rong without informing her about anything, it pisses her off. She doesn't like surprises, not like this for sure.

She cocks her eyebrow, "Where?" Seeing the same expression on his face when she asked him earlier the same question she smirks. "You don't know huh? Your boss is sure mysterious."

He shrugs giving her a helpless smile and gestures her to lead the way to his car. She hesitates because her mother especially told her to come back on time. "I can't...After what happened my mother is worried about me and I cannot worry her more."

Instead of leaving, he smiles and informs her, "Don't worry Miss Mo. Sir has already informed Mrs. Mo about it. She was pleased to know in fact so there's nothing to worry about."

Huh? What? Her eyebrow shoots up and her mouth hangs down in shock. She was afraid of telling anything to her family about her and Zichen. And what did he told her mother? Although her mother is always sweet and kind, she can be bitter when it comes to men wooing her daughter. She needs to know what he told her or else, she won't be able to sleep tonight.

"Alright then. Let's go" she sighs. Informing Gui about her departure, she travels to Rong's car. He opens the door for her, ushering her inside.

"Where are we?" she implores, her eyes gazing around the unfamiliar surrounding. The neighbor is lined with houses, villas, and mansions, leaving an amount of distance between them. She has no idea of this place nor did she ever came here. Taking Rong's hand, which offered, she steps outside the car. The stars cover the entire sky, blanketing it like its own. Light from the inside of the houses glows and this neighbor is unusually quiet. The house she stands in front of looks different than the others. The house is covered with glasses, there are glasses more than walls. The interior is inviting yet intimidating.

"Sir's" he answers. Before she can ask further questions, Zichen's figure comes into view. He is in his casual clothes- black sweatpants and a black t-shirt. Shi Lian's heart flutter at the sight of him. As always he looks divine and the way his hair is messed up, he looks sexy and way too attractive. He smirks as if he knew what she is thinking. "Enjoy. I'll be off then" Rong grins and getting back inside the car, he left.

Holding her hands gently, he kisses her knuckles making her blush. "Hey" his husky voice makes her shiver and lose consciousness at the same time.

"Hey" she manages to say as suddenly the atmosphere is too hot for her. "Why I am here?" she questions, her eyes drifting to his house again. Shi Lian has to accept that he is one of the best designs she has seen and she is curious to look inside as well.

"To treat you to dinner," he says. Locking his fingers with her's, he takes her inside his house. Opening the front door, they enter the house. The entry leads with stairs which are interesting and Shi Lian is now more curious to see each corner of this house. A chandelier glows on top brightening the living hall. The inside is just like his office, black, white, and grey. The couches are grey with an hourglass table placed in the center. She gazes around and notices the big pots of plants, they are specially for decoration and they are complimenting with the colors well. the floor beneath her is cold, the black marble shining without any hint of dust. Sure enough, he is a clean freak.

"Dinner? Here?" she implores facing him.

He smiles, "My home is the only place where media cannot reach us." At his answer, Shi Lian's heart swells and she gives him a small smile. Well okay, he is thoughtful and considerate.

Her curious eyes look around, a piano rests to the far right corner and it kind of looks isolated. Another stair leads up where must be his bedroom, she ponders.

When she turns to face him, he is already watching her, his eyes dark and the intensity is burning inside her. to her surprise, he snakes his arm around her and pulls her making her fall on his hard chest. He tilts her chin up and plants a soft kiss. Even though it's not the first time he is kissing her, she always gets butterflies around him. She kisses him back and he grunts when she flicks his upper lip with his tongue, teasing him. Her fingers shove inside his messy hair as their kiss intensifies. He dives deep, his tongue exploring every inch of her smart mouth. His other hand trails down her thighs, lifting, and in response she circles his waist, locking her feet. Her soft moans make him more and more hard. He leads them to the sofa. Making her fall on the couch, he hovers over her mouth again. She arches her back wanting more. She feels the hard ridge of his groin pushing inside her stomach making her clit throb.

Slowly he breaks the kiss and rises. She whimpers because she does not want it to finish. What's wrong with him? Anger takes the role, kicking out the horniness she was feeling. "What?" she hisses.

He laughs under his breath seeing her angry. "Baby, the dinner is getting cold. Although I would love to have it as my dinner…" he teases and in return, he gets a cushion n his face from Shi Lian.

He helps her get up from the couch and then he takes her to the dining hall where he set the dinner all by himself.

A dining table is placed looking romantic with the glowing candles and the amazing view from the left. the house is almost naked if we look. Everywhere there are glasses and there's no privacy in a sene.

"You sure like glasses huh?" she taunts.

"Yes," he grins, looking at her very own charming Zichen. "Others cannot look inside but we can, that's the specialty."

After she is seated on the chair, he goes inside the kitchen to bring the food. She highly doubts he made everything on his own and the thought of him rummaging around the kitchen is funny. She smiles to herself, waiting for him to come.

He comes out of the kitchen, carrying two dishes in his hands. She chuckles as he approaches. "What?" he asks, noticing her grinning.

"It's interesting to see a bossy cold CEO in a new avatar" she teases, chuckling again.

Leaning closer, she feels his hot breath hitting her lips and the smile fades as she is too conscious of his breathing. She licks her lips which are suddenly too dry and gazes up to meet his eyes. "I am full of surprises, baby" he whispers and plants a kiss on her lips and heads inside the kitchen to bring the dishes. How does he manage to make her so needy? She bites her lips as the image of him in various other activities flashes in her head. She brushes off the thoughts and returns back to reality.

"You made this?" she asks, her eyes wide and her stomach growls in hunger at the sight of these dishes he made. He nods and she eyes him in suspicion. "You know how to cook?"

"Yes." He serves the food on her plate, her mouth waters and she can not hold herself to dig in. she groans taking the first bite. "This is too delicious" she mumbles between her bites. She eats in the manner and never hurries but this food makes her lose all her manners. "The pork is just so tender."

"Thank you" he laughs. She gazes up and it must be the first time she sees him laughing this carefree and he looks so happy and young. She smiles because the sight of him is too wonderful to watch. "What?" he asks.

"You should laugh more often," she says, offering him a warm smile. I love when you smile." Zichen's eyes widen at her response and she too is surprised at what she just said. "I-I mean…you look really when you smile. I like it" she blurts out trying to explain herself.
