Kelly, Mo Jing-sheng, Madame Mo and Master Mo heaved a huge sigh of relief the moment they saw that Kim Eunji was now in a deep sleep inside Nathan's embrace.

"What should I do now?" Nathan helplessly asked.

"I think you should sleep with her tonight brother-in-law." Kelly seriously answered.

"..."

"What?!" Nathan Bai's expression turned sour as soon as he heard it.

"She's already comfortably sleeping in your embrace. It would definitely be a pity if she'll wake up because you leave." Kelly pointed out.

Like on cue, Kim Eunji's grip on his wrist tightened as if telling that she didn't want to let go of the warmth that made her comfortable.

"See? Even in deep sleep, she agreed with me." Kelly teased him though her face was serious as she said that.

"Auntie, Uncle, Ah Jing! Don't tell me that you agreed with her?" Nathan looked at them as he was asking for support but unfortunately for him, they were clearly siding with Kelly.

"Nathan boy. Just think of it as some sort of practice for your wedding night." Madame Mo vaguely answered him.

"What? Who's wedding are we talking about?" Mo Jing-sheng butted in but he received a fierce look from his mother and wife. He inwardly chuckled as soon as he realized what was going on.

'You're in trouble now Nate.' He thought as he helplessly shook his head and meaningfully looked at Nathan and Kim Eunji.

'If you, Kim Eunji would be able to change and bring back the Nathan that I knew in the past, I would be forever grateful to you.' He said in his thoughts.

"Are you going to entrust her with me? Seems like all of you already forget about my reputation." Nathan said his last defense over the matter.

"What reputation are you talking about Nate? Of all people, we knew what kind of person you really are Nate. And I know you won't touch her even if she's sleeping naked in front of you." Mo Jing-sheng smugly answered. Nathan's bestfriend knew who Nathan was and why he turned up to be like who he had become now.

No matter how much he liked a woman, he would never dare to touch her without her consent.

"What if I can't stop myself and touch her?" He queried.

"Then, as early as tomorrow, we'll accompany the both of you to the civil registration office and get your marriage certificate instantly. This will settle that." Master Mo answerer casually.

Who would have thought that Master Mo's words would eventually happen sooner?

The father and son earned praises and cheers from their respective wives as soon as they said that.

Kelly gave a thumbs-up to Mo Jing-sheng while Madame Mo winked at her husband.

"--__--"

Nathan was speechless. It's already pointless to argue with them with regards to this matter.

He wanted to refute, but he was at a loss.

As soon as they left, Nathan had no other choice but to settle himself down beside Kim Eunji. He didn't even got the chance to have a shower.

It was already twelve midnight and Nathan was in a huge predicament.

His wrist was still sore but the woman who caused all of this trouble was now peacefully snuggling in his arms like a harmless kitten.

"Huh!"

Nathan huffed a mouthful of air.

He tried to leave the bed earlier but Kim Eunji held on his arms.

"You'll pay for this woman!" He whispered.

The following morning, Kim Eunji woke up alone in bed. She looked around and saw that she was not on her designated room.

Memories of what happened last night flashed back on her mind.

'HOSPITAL' was the last word she uttered before she was taken over by darkness. She heaved a huge sigh of relief as soon as she realized that she was still inside the Mo Family's Ancestral Manor.

She got off the bed and decided to walk out of the room. As she opened the door, she was surprised to see that her assigned room was directly opposite of this room.

She walked towards her door and unlocked it with the key that she had kept on her pocket.

Kim Eunji directly went to the bathroom to shower. For some reason, she could not point out why she's under the weather.

She changed into a pair of black denim short under her oversized plain black t-shirt and matched up the outfit with her white shoes.

This outfit highlighted her long, flawless porcelain-looking legs. As delicate as she could be, Kim Eunji liked to dress casually. She preferred comfort after all. Wearing a dress would only make her feel uncomfortable. And besides, it's not her thing.

She let her hair in the open to dance freely with the wind. She applied some skin care on her face for protection. She looked at her face in the mirror and felt like she wanted to change it up a bit.

Grabbing a pair of scissors, Kim Eunji cut some of her hair and created a semi fringe hairstyle.

She nodded as she's satisfied with how she looked.

After she was done, she went out of her room and decided to have a morning stroll. It was still seven in the morning when she checked the time. As for breakfast, she had no appetite at all.

Aa she walked out of the room, she tried to recall if something else had happened after she passed out. And also about the man who helped her. She wanted to express her gratitude towards him but she could not do so without knowing him at all. There were a lot of people inside the manor last night.

While she was oblivious of how last night unfold the man whom she had been looking for was hanging out with his best buddies and doing their morning work-out inside the private gym.

"So, how was your sleep last night Master Bai?" Hua Zang Wei who had just arrived earlier this morning teased Nathan who was in a grumpy mood.

Who would not be in a bad mood when he was not able to sleep at all last night? When Kim Eunji finally let go of his hand, it was already four in the morning. He usually woke up at five as a part of his routine.

"Nate, have you let Dr. Jiang check your wrist? It's swelling." Mo Jing-sheng remarked.

"I will later." Nate simply answered.

"My...my...my... seems like Master Bai is in trouble this time." Hua Zhang Wei grinned. He knew what happened because the servants were talking about it earlier this morning. He also asked Kim Jeong Ho earlier and confirmed the rumor.

Now, Zhang Wei was curious on who was the woman who could afford to hurt Master Bai and did not receive the Satan's punishment.

"Are you done?" Nathan said in a low voice which made Zhang Wei's knees to shake.

Nathan, who was no longer in the mood of working out walked out of the room with his towel and phone on hand.

He was in no mood to talk at all.

"Oie! You're so unfair Nate! Why are you treating me like this?" Hua Zhang Wei whined like a child.

"Tssk! It's your fault for being so nosy." Mo Jing-sheng teased him.

Kim Eunji was lost in her thoughts while she was walking in the hallway that she did not realize someone was walking towards her direction.

She gasped as she was surprised when she bumped into a sturdy figure.

As she looked up, she was dumbfounded to see a pair of bluish green eyes intently looking at her.

"Could you stop creating more trouble!" He angrily said which made Kim Eunji be taken aback because of how harsh his words were.

Kim Eunji did not back down and looked at him in the eyes. As Nathan had a clear view of Kim Eunji's eyes, he was mesmerized by them, he knew that heterochromia in the eyes did exist but he never got the chance to meet someone who had one.

And it was undeniably true that the pair of eyes which were looking at him right now was the most beautiful one he had seen.

"What?! Me creating trouble?" Kim Eunji asked in disbelief. 'The audacity of this man.' She continued in her thoughts. But she followed it up by saying, "It was you who was in wrong side. If you're driving on the highway, the traffic police would charge you of reckless driving and not following the right lane."

"--__--"

'Since when did the hallway became a highway?' He asked in his thought.

"Stop messing around! You don't want to see me angry, do you?" Nathan Bai said in a husky voice.

"Bring it on. I'm...not...afraid." Kim Eunji challenged.

Nathan's gaze darkened as soon as he heard his response. His mood darkened and the air around him became cold. However, to his surprise, Kim Eunji remained indifferent towards him.

He made a step forward while Kim Eunji stepped backward. This cycle continued until Kim Eunji's back was pushed to the wall.

He thought he won the battle but to his surprise, Kim Eunji made a surprise move and flipped their position. It was his turn to have his back against the wall. Her expression darkened and the air around her turned heavier.

To his surprise, Kim Eunji grab the lapel of his shirt and brought her beautiful face closer to his equally handsome face.

"Don't think that just because I am a woman, I would bend my knees and gave you a kotow. You might make other people be intimidated by your gaze," Kim Eunji released his lapel as she continued, "Unfortunately, I...am...not...that...someone."

Kim Eunji emphasized and then smirked at him.

They did not realize that their position earlier was quite intimate in an outsider's point of view.
