A ray of sunlight falls on his face, making his eyes squint. Slowly he opens his eyes, groaning, he looks at his side. Finding Shi Lian snuggled by his side, he smiles. With ease, he removes his arm which she used as her pillow, and lifts his head with the support of his elbow. She squirms, her brows knitting together with his movement but she is still asleep. He watches her, focusing on every part of hers. Her hair is scattering all over the pillow, her fingers curled up and they look so delicate that one might be cautious to touch.

He gently caresses her cheeks with his thumb. He recalls the night of their first meeting and how she ran away in the morning, dumping him. he chuckles remembering her being drunk and dominant.

As he is caressing her face, Shi Lian slowly opens his. She yawns and snuggles more clutching onto the sheets. She then notices Zichen watching her and he looks undeniably handsome. Her heart flutters at the memory of him inside her last night and she blushes. "Morning" he whispers, kissing her on her forehead and then her lips.

"Morning," she says in return and smiles. She then realizes she is in his house, in his bed! Shit! She rises in an instance, reality hitting her and she hurries to find her phone. "Where's my phone?"

Zichen grabs the phone from the nightstand beside his side showing her the phone. she reaches to get the phone from his hand but he jerks away from her reach, playing with her. she tries again moving closer and she didn't even realize she is naked. "Give me back my phone, Zichen!" she growls trying to snatch the phone from his hold but he retreats, giving her a lopsided grin. Snuggling more, her body pressing into his as she leans to take it from his stretched hand.

"Are you trying to seduce me?" he teases trailing his eyes over her naked body that is pressing into his. She shoots him a look. Snaking`his another arm around her waist he turns her over. Coming up, his hands resting to her sides, her phone forgotten, he leans to kiss her. Liquid heat pools inside her, she has aroused again and no matter how angry she is, she can never say no to this.

"I need to get back," she says, her voice low but her body says something else. But he ignores her protest and kisses her hard, driving his tongue inside her mouth.

"It's still early" he mumbles, sucking her lower lip. His body warms up, and his groin gets hard with the feel of her skin against him. he paths his tongue down to her neck and nibble on her soft skin. She giggles and he loves the sound.

"Zichen!" she protests, still giggling. "I need to go, Zichen. Please." But she truly does not want to leave. He rises and turns to his side, passes her the phone. she takes it and gives him a meek smile. Turning on her phone, she checks her phone and finds it's almost time for her to go to the company.

"Damn, I am going to be late!" she says to her herself and hurriedly gets up from the bed. he gets up as well and finding his clothes, he slips them down over his body. Reaching to her, he hugs her from behind.

"Sshh" he soothes, "I'll go get your clothes, you take a shower first." She nods and he gives her a peck on her hair before striding out of the room. She smiles and despite being naked, she is not at all embarrassed. He has let her known that she does not needs to be embarrassed at all and looking at herself, she feels more confident than she ever did with herself.

The bathroom is attached to the bedroom. She enters inside the bathroom and her eyes go wide noticing the decoration and design of his bathroom. The shower lies on the right end of the bathroom and to her left is a lake-like pool. The stones are placed around the small lake kike pool, giving it ancient vibes. she can praise them all day but she is getting late. Steppin' inside the shower, she quickly cleans herself. Soaking the body and rinsing her hair.

Treading out of the shower, she dries her with the towel and another towel wrapped around her body. she yelps finding Zichen in the room, sitting on the couch and staring at her. he smirks and she sees her clothes kept beside him, neatly folded.

"Umm...I need to change" she says, clearing her throat, hinting at him to give her some privacy. He sits in his spot without budging, his eyes never leaving hers. She thinks he doesn't get what she meant so she speaks again. "I need to change. Can I have some privacy?"

"I have already seen every inch of yours, tasted it, and licked it. You want privacy now?" he smirks, cocking his eyebrow. She narrows her eyes at him and gestures him to leave.

Shaking his head, he gets up, "Alright. But this is the last time."

"Last time what?" she asks not understanding what he meant.

Turning back, he says, his voice husky and filled with lust, "Last time you are asking me to leave while you change."

She sucks in air, blushing as heat rises to her cheeks. The door closes and she hurriedly changes her clothes.

Rong stands by the gate beside the car, waiting for Shi Lian. Zichen called him and asked him to send Shi Lian to her home safely. Without having any choice he is here. They both exit from the door and Rong releases his breath because he has been standing for a long time.

Seeing Rong, Shi Lian's eyes rises in surprise. "Were you here for the whole night?"

He shakes his head, giving him a small chuckle, "NO, Miss Shi Lian."

Pulling her closer Zichen kisses her for the last time before she leaves, without caring if his manager is here. "Call e when you reach."

She nods and Zichen ushers her inside the car. He is still in his sweatpants and a t-shirt.

Shutting the door, he orders Rong to drive safely and gives all the unnecessary details which aren't needed at all. Shi Lian gets annoyed and rolling the window, she pops her head out and scowls at him. "Boss, we will reach home safe. Shall we go?"

Rong laughs quietly and Zichen shoots her a look. He gestures to Rong to start and he does. He left the neighborhood and head to the Mo mansion.
