He didn't missed the way she turned her face away from him to hide her face. He kissed her forehead and brought her face closer to cover her lips. His tongue stroking her plump lower lips and nibble when he parted. "What had gotten you red?"

"It's the kiss." she looked away. She knew what he was trying to do since the afternoon. Just because she had once teased him he didn't show mercy and teased her multiple folds.

"I don't feel like it's only the kiss?" his tone hooked, the smile fading to a cooked corner. "Little pervert Yun, I could tell you are thinking of something." he whispered and he was right. Her fingers which she placed down on her thighs were squirming, her lips was pursed tight into a line but when he had kissed her, it parted fast and returned his kisses in the same intensity. When he had mentioned the bathtub, her eyes which hadn't been looking at him turned teary as she was on edge of expecting something from him which he didn't do.

"Teasing me again." her voice died out when his mouth had kissed over her. When his lips left, he wipe the corner of his lips with his tongue, his hands staying low but his eyes were the opposite.

"Don't stay for too long."

"I won't." she replied her cheeks red and kissed his cheeks before leaving to the bathroom. Walking out of the room Wang Li Lei met Jang Hyun who was stationed back at home, when he had seen his masters the man bowed politely like what he had always did.

"What did you find?" Asked Wang Li Lei, cutting to the chase.

It didn't require Jang Hyun to ask the man what he asked for and replied, "It is as what you have said master, we have find the traitor."

Wang Li Lei pulled a smile evenly to his lips. Unlike the way he had warmly smiled for Xiao Yun, what had appeared to his lips was a broad cold smile. He hated traitors so much as he had seen how his parents ended up killed by his traitorous uncle.

Wang Li Lei ordered, "Continue to keep an eye on him." and he took off the outer suit that he wore, seeing it Jang Hyun extended his hand and took his suit.

"Yes, master." compelled Jang Hyun, he then said, "There is also something I found today in the office, master."

Wang Li Lei lifted his brows in question, and saw the secretary pulling a brown envelope he had placed on his hand. The brown document was closed with a secure stamp to make sure that no one could open and read the letter without notifying the one who was addressed to read the envelope. Taking it to his hand, he ripped the edge of the letter and took out to read the first few lines of the letters.

Jang Hyun stayed there his eyes were curious but his mouth was closed. He knows he shouldn't asked more than what he should. When Wang Li Lei had read the letter his face showed no expression, folding it back to the envelope, he then said, "Get Yue to bring a glass of milk to my room, make it warm with honey." Jang Hyun bowed and when Wang Li Lei entered Xiao Yun's room, Jang Hyun didn't ask his intention at the lady's room and left the place to fetch Yue.

When he had entered, Wang Li Lei stepped toward the room, pulling the drawer where he remembered to have seen a matchbox and pulled one stick to lit a fire. Bringing the fire to the edge of the envelope, he burnt the letter and placed the burned letter to the trash bin and stayed until the fire died out. For a moment he did nothing but stared at the ashes before returning away to take Xiao Yun's night clothings which she needed and the blue gem in her possession.

When Xiao Yun had been dressed in her sleeping attire, her cheeks felt steamy from the warm bath, she shivered when a cold air blew over her. Pulling the quilt over her, she felt how the cold and gloomy weather affected more than she thought.

When she recalled how she had been crying a moment ago, she sighed. She wasn't a person who could easily cry but when it was Wang Li Lei she was with, every corners of her heart felt soft to know that he would be there for her and that she could be her weak self to him.

"What are you thinking that got you so quiet?" Xiao Yun lifted her chin up, and lowered the quilt to see Wang Li Lei walking out of the bath. His pajamas was in a black color, the color he often used, his hair which was still slightly wet even after he had dried his hair fell haphazardly over his forehead.

"I'm not thinking of anything," she whispered when a knock resounded from the door. Opening the door, Wang Li Lei took the glass of milk that felt warm to his hand and closed the door to his back. Walking to the bed side, he placed the glass milk to her hand.

"Milk." she commented looking at the white liquid that looked slightly golden with the lighting.

"Is it wrong for me to choose milk? Milk had the effect to make one sleep faster at night, especially warm milk."

"I know that," she whispered taking a sip of the milk that tasted sweet. "It's just that drinking milk makes me feel like a pampered child." she then heard him laughing and furrowed her brows. "I'm not joking."

"I know." he rubbed her head and pushed her hand which held the milk. "Drink it all." and she drank the milk fast and he took the glass once she had drank it all.

Xiao Yun kept her stare trained on his pajama to ask, "Should I really sleep here? The gem power wouldn't work on two people."

"I will stay here only until you are asleep, staying here is better for you, don't you think?"

"Mhm," Xiao Yun hummed, pulling the blanket, she felt her head sunk to the pillow.
