"Get your fucking hands off her!" a voice, familiar, deep, and dangerous growls. The voice actually made Shi Lian shiver.

Zichen was out of his mind when he saw the man getting close to her. He strode, cutting the crowd, and now here he is.

He narrows his eyes, looking at the man icily. He does not need to repeat himself. The man left and went the other way and disappear into the crowd. He then looks at her, he is having a hard time believing what he is seeing. His eyes remain on her and his jaw flexes as he controls his anger and does not snap at her.

Her hand touches his face, the coldness of her hands gives him a sensation. She blinks twice and he ponders just what she is thinking?

"Are you here or am I hallucinating?" she asks, her voice slurry.

His hard stare remains on her. "No Shi Lian. You are not hallucinating."

She continues touching his face, feeling each of his structures cautiously. "What are you doing?" he asks.

At his question, she laughs and sways her hips a little. "Can't you see? I was testiinggggg if you are reallllll or not" she says, her voice slurry. She drops her hand from his face and taking a step back, her eyes locked in his, she dances her ass off. She moves sexily, her body grooving with the beat and her hair flipping from one end to another.

Zichen gulps. She appears beautifully sexy and he has this urge to kiss her right away. The drunk smile remains on her face and she continues dancing forgetting about him.

He sucks in a deep breath and gives his tie a little loose. He approaches her and snaking his arm around her waist, pulls her closer.

Her hair sticks on her face and he gently removes it and tugs it behind her ear. Shi Lian is breathing heavily but what is bothering him is the fire that is igniting slowly inside him. Her presence and her touch make him alive and he forgets about everything. He doesn't even have any idea where Junjie is.

"Letttt me good" she protests weekly, making a face. Zichen smirks doing the opposite.

"Baby, I will never let you go" he whispers in her ear, making her squirm. He then turns her around, her back plastering to his chest. She moans as he kisses her near her ear. They move their bodies, living in the moment.

"You are goddamm beautiful" he hisses, inhaling her fragrance.

Drunk Shi Lian does not know what she is doing but she also does not want to be aware of anything.

She turns around, facing him, and demands, "Kiss me."

He does not even hesitate for a second and dives in to kiss her. His kiss is hungry and predatory. Shi Lian's fingers clutch his hair roots and she moans wanting more.

She pulls away, breaking the kiss. Her cheeks flushed and she is breathing hard.

She looks at him, an unfamiliar look on her face as if she has come to reality.

At that moment, Evelyn comes and pushes him away, and goes for Shi Lian. Holding her to make her steady, she curses internally for leaving her alone.

She glares at Zichen, saying something which he cannot understand.

She comes a little closer for him to hear. Can't believe they are having a conversation right in the middle of the dance floor!

"You jerk! How dare you make her cry?" she latches on him, not caring if anyone hears her or not.

"She told you? Everything?" he asks, his voice panicky. Did Shi Lian tell Evelyn about his identity? Oh shit... If she knows he is in grave danger. One by one everyone will know.

She scowls and yells, "Come with me!" Saying that she holds Shi Lian firmly and strides out of the club. There's no way they are going to have a serious conversation on the dance floor.

Shi Lian mumbles something and whines because she wants to dance. Evelyn, frustrated, snaps at her, "You are not allowed to drink! Fuck, you should never drink. "

Once they are out, they can talk or yell snd the other person can hear them clearly without being yelled at twice or thrice.

Zichen follows along with Junjie by his side. Evelyn looks at him making a disgusting face, "He is with you?"

Junjie raises his eyebrow, "You are her friend?"

Evelyn rolls her eyes. Shaking her head, she tells, "Let me make her sit first. You wait here."

She takes Shi Lian and makes her sit inside the car. Adjusting the seatbelt on her, she turns on her heels and returns to the men.

"Now" she asserts, "Tell me. What the fuck did you do to make her be in a state like this?"

Zichen feels guilty but the fear that she may know about him is taking more presence inside his mind.

"What did she tell you?" he asks instead, calm and steady.

Evelyn scowls at him, "I AM the one who is questioning you at the moment. Answer my question first."

Junjie smirks, raising his eyebrows in amusement. "Bro, she is fierce. Do all her friends are like her?" he says to Zichen but he is loud enough for Evelyn to hear. She shows him her middle finger, making his smile fade.

"You.."

Zichen sighs and decides to answer her question instead. "It's a misunderstanding. I came here to explain things to her."

"Oh is that so? Misunderstanding? Every time?" she scoffs.

"What did she tell you?" he asks, his tone urgent.

Evelyn wants to slap him across his face but she holds herself. "She told me how big of a liar you are! She told me how many times you have lied to her. Oh, sorry, not sometimes... But every single time! "

Zichen is relieved to find that she does not tell her about his identity but he is upset that Shi Lian thinks like this. He never lied to her, not intentionally. All he wants is to protect her and not let anything ruin their relationship, even if it takes him to lie about himself sometimes.

"Look, I am sorry. I truly am. I never lied to her. It is all a misunderstanding."

Evelyn makes a face of disbelief. When she first met him, she thought maybe he won't be the guy to hurt her, but she was wrong.

"Yeah. She misunderstood. We have been trying to reach her for the past three hours only to realize that she is out here clubbing?" Junjie says, acting as if he has done a lot of work.

Evelyn shoots him a dirty look. "Shut up!"

Zichen warns him, "Mind yourself."

Junjie rolls his eyes, annoyed by both Evelyn and Zichen.

Zichen tries to make her understand, "I know you care about her and I am glad you are here with her. But you have to believe that I will do anything to hurt her. She needs to hear from my side too."

Evelyn thinks. Although she isn't buying whatever he says but the way he is requesting, he does look serious.

"I don't care what is going on but if you dare make her cry again, I am gonna rip that face of yours" she warns him.

He says nothing and just nods slightly.
