Chang Ling looked at Lim De Zi as though she was in a trance. The way he hugged her made her realize how much he loved her. He cried with joy as his tears wet her hospital gown. "Chang Ling, now no one can separate us. I have not been able to reach you for help last time, but believe me I will stay like your shadow from now onwards. You will have twenty four hours security from now on."

Chang Ling patted him and asked, "What had happened to me?"

Although her demeanor was cold, Lim De Zi attributed to her recovering from illness. After all she had gone through a lot. He just couldn't answer what his father did to her. He said, "Chang Ling, marry me."

Chang Ling looked at him totally amused. "Marry you?"

Lim De Zi held her frail hands in his and said, "Yes, please marry me darling. That is the only way I can protect you from dark people."

She looked down in her lap and nodded lightly.

Lim De Zi was so happy that he embraced her again. "Chang Ling, I love you! Let's marry tomorrow," he said with a huge grin on his face that was radiating with love.

"Okay…" she nodded again with a faint smile.

"Don't go anywhere from here. I am going to get you discharged. In case someone comes in remember to pretend that you are still sleeping. it is still too dangerous."

She pursed her lips and said, "Okay."

He made her lie on the bed and covered her with the blanket. He stroked her cheeks and then left the room as he wiped his tear-ridden face. He had to act quickly to discharge her and hide her until he took her to the registry office.

Lim Chuen was I house sipping whiskey when he heard that Chang Ling was about to die any minute. He hated that wretched girl who was dreaming to marry his son. His son was also a fool. Lim Chuen knew how to take revenge and that pathetic girl was like an ant to him. He smirked as he took another sip. His mind wandered to Wang Zirong. Her body was not found anywhere. She had disappeared without a trace after the kidnapping attempt. The fact that Feng Xinying was back meant that the kidnap attempt had failed miserably. He had given her all the equipment and manpower to carry it out successfully, but how did Xie Yuansheng come in time to rescue her? It was beyond his comprehension.

Lim Chuen had abducted Wang Zirong's younger sister in order to make her kill Feng Xinying. When Wang Zirong had kidnapped Feng Xinying, she had traded her sister's freedom with promising to torture and kill Feng Xinying. Lim Chuen had found out that Feng Xinying was the sole heir of the Feng Conglomerate and the only legal child of Feng Zhantian. He had to eliminate her in order to get closer to the company of his dreams.

But his attempt to kill her failed, and Wang Zirong had disappeared. He heard that it was the work of The Crocodile. Everyone in the underground world feared him. If that was the case, then obviously Feng Xinying was now under his protection. Lim Chuen backed off immediately. Just so that he wasn't traced to the kidnapping, he hadn't even enquired about Wang Zirong's disappearance.

He sipped from his glass again and rested his head on the sofa.

He waited for his son to come back. Just one more day…

Back in the Feng Mansion, couple left for the office together. When they walked in the office, Xie Yuansheng held Feng Xinying's hand and entered. Everyone in the office stared at the two. Feng Xinying lowered her head as a smile spread on her face. She was aware of all the stares. But as far as Xie Yuansheng was concerned, he was only looking too proud of himself. He held her hand tightly. They entered the elevator along with a few others. When some of the girls stared harshly at Feng Xinying, Xie Yuansheng noticed it. he lifted Feng Xinying's hand to his lips and kissed it in front of them, which sent shocks to all of them. Feng Xinying's mouth opened. She blushed a deep red. She looked at him only to be given a wink. Feng Xinying shook her head and chuckled lightly.

They exited the elevator with holding hands. Xie Yuansheng was loud and clear about his relationship with her and he took every chance to flaunt it. The incident took ten minutes to circulate within the company.

Xie Yuansheng came up to Feng Xinying's cubicle to drop her and then went to his office. She booted her computer not even trying to look anywhere. She knew there were thousands of questions she would be facing at the moment.

She had just booted the computer and looking at the files and it had been fifteen minutes that some girls started coming towards her. All of a sudden the CEO's door opened and people saw him striding towards her cubicle.
