When Chen Da Meng entered into the CEO's office with documents which are needs approval from CEO, Lee Tae Yang was staring at his key chain with a bright grin on his face, revealing his cute dimples.

His devil boss knows to smile?

Taken aback by the abnormality of his boss's demeanor, Chen Da Meng stumbled upon his steps, waking Lee Tae Yang from his daze and hide behind his innate poker face,

"Boss, these are the documents that needs your approval," He politely said and handed over the files,

"Cough cough," Lee Tae Yang straightened his posture and avoided looking into Chen Da Meng's curious eyes, "have you cross checked everything?"

"Yes, boss,"

While Lee Tae Yang was going through the documents, Chen Da Meng's eyes wandered on to the finger sized figurine toy attached to the car key resting on the table.

He never knew that his boss liked cutesy little things.

All of sudden, Lee Tae Yang's cell phone screen lit, revealing the screen saver of a couple's photo.

Why does it look like a wedding photograph?

However before Chen Da Meng could prob more into the photograph, the screen light timed out,

But why would his bachelor boss keep a wedding photo as his screen saver? Unless he is secretly married?

Chen Da Meng's eyes widened in disbelief,

Good heavens, is there a woman who can tolerate boss's nasty temper and poker face?

Huh what about the woman who visited yesterday? Who is she?

"Boss, belated birthday wishes," Chen Da Meng greeted him while accepting the signed documents,

"Thanks," He replied with a nod and opened his laptop, signalling his assistant to leave,

Chen Da Meng who walked out from the CEO's office, stopped at the Secretary desk,

"Secretary Wan, did you feel something wrong with boss's behavior today?" He inquired,

"I've never seen him smiling ever since I started to work with him. But today, he smiled...he actually grinned...and assistant Chen, he got dimples," Secretary Wan who has been dying to share her joy with someone, blurted out immediately like a fan girl,

He appears to be in a great mood,

It was true, Lee Tae Yang was indeed happy.

He is living with Li Juan under the same roof.

The thought, some one waiting for him at home, elated his excitement into seventh heaven.

The void which left in his life was finally filled with her presence.

Earlier he used to make busy himself with work and distract his mind from her memories.

However, today he only wants to get home earlier and spend time with Li Juan.

Though, he never overstepped his boundaries, to live under the same roof as her, to breath the same air as her...it was enough for him...

He doesn't want to force his love upon her or take advantage of her.

Even though he was dying to take their relationship into next level, for the sake of Li Juan's well being, he decided to wait.

On the other hand, Li Juan was looking for a perfect opportunity to confess her feelings.

She wasn't sure about the identity of the man in her memories, but she desperately wanted to believe that person is Lee Tae Yang.

At the same time, Li Juan was busy at her research lab in Jing university. She was supposed to unwrap the samples and categorize them before the scientific examinations.

The tests were important to confirm the authenticity of the artifact's.

Since her team members were still in Tu valley, the department head allowed few of the final year students as interns and to help her to run the tests. However, since Li Juan does not remember the test procedures was left on pins and needles, due to her lack of knowledge.

Those samples were few thousand years old and if she makes any mistakes, then that's it.

----------------------

When Lee Tae Yang reached home, their condo was awfully quiet,

Is she not home yet? He wondered and checked the time. It was only 7 in the evening, he came home early in order to make Li Juan less lonelier, but she was no where to see,

Even the doors of the guest room remained open,

Lee Tae Yang loosened his tie and picked up his phone to give her a call,

Out of the blue, a ringtone heard from the guest room,

"She is at home?"

All of sudden, a loud thud sound resounded from the room,

Lee Tae Yang quickly ran over and pulled open the door to see Li Juan lying next to bathroom door, trying had to rise up into feet,

"What happened?" He asked in a nervous tone,

"Its nothing, I just slip-" Before Li Juan could finish, the white bath towel wrapped around her body, slipped down, revealing her naked upper torso,

Oppsss...

Lee Tae Yang who rushed to help her, was left stunned by the splendid sight in front of him.

He looked at her exposed curvaceous body and felt his throat tighten, so tight that he almost couldn't breathe, so he reached to unbutton his collar. His Adam's apple bobbing as he gulped.

Li Juan some how gathered the towel and covered her body tried as she straightened her posture,

Ouch!!!!! It hurts !!!!! When her right foot touched the ground, she cried out in pain,

While she was rushing to attend the call, she ran barefoot from the bathroom and slipped on her tracks,

"It hurts!!!!"

Li Juan's voice brought Lee Tae Yang back to his senses, and he quickly walked over to the woman who was trying to balance her footing and caught her before falling down,

He carried her in arms and carefully placed her on the soft bed,

"Where is it hurting?" He asked Li Juan who appeared white with pain,

"Right leg,"

Without thinking much, he promptly took hold of her right leg and gently squeezed several parts of her leg, like knees, calves to check the severity of pain and tenderness,

"Ahhh its hurts," She yelled in pain when Lee Tae Yang applied pressure on her ankle,

"It is an ankle sprain," He straightened his body and noticed that,

Li Juan was still wearing the bath towel which barely covered her beguiling torso,

The smooth expanse of her skin had a sheen of moisture, especially the rhythmically rising chest area.

It was glistening with water droplets, making it impossible to ignore.

Since Li Juan always preferred to wear loosing fitting clothes and he always thought she is skinny compared to her height, however today he found out how curvy Li Juan is.

She appeared thin, but the places that were supposed to be fleshy were indeed fleshy...

Lee Tae Yang's heart pounded,

This scene was simply cruel torture for Lee Tae Yang, who had endured for very long time,

For a moment, he wanted to charge over and have her beg mercy under him.

Forcing himself to look away from her body, he picked up the blanket and covered her with it.

Li Juan clutched on to the blanket with a deadly grip and avoided looking at Lee Tae Yang,

Though they have spent a night together, it was under the effect of alcohol. Now she is wide awake and embarrassed to the death.

"I will get an ice pack, will you get changed?"

"Hmm," Li Juan slightly nodded her head and reached out for her clothes kept on the edge of the bed,

Thank God, at least she prepared her clothes beforehand ,

While Lee Tae Yang went to the kitchen, Li Juan changed into fresh clothes in lightning speed, worrying that he might return.

However, when Lee Tae Yang came back with ice pack, he knocked before entering, making sure that Li Juan was fully dressed.

He picked up two pillows and kept under her sprain ankle before placing the ice pack,

"Don't carelessly move around, especially after taking bath," Lee Tae Yang chided her while checking on the bruise,

Li Juan looked at the man who was holding on to her feet with a serious expression. She could not help but feel warmth growing in her chest.

As she looked at his solemn face, the lines of his well-defined face and jaw line was shockingly attractive.

"I am sorry," Li Juan said in a low voice, "I just arrived yesterday and caused you enough trouble. I shouldn't have stay-"

Lee Tae Yang raised his deep and profound eyes at her, shutting her words with a glare.

"If it aches more, do tell me...we will go to hospital,"

"Will I be alright by tomorrow?" She inquired with a worried face,

"It will take two-three days if you rest properly,"

"Two-three days, what will I tell my Juniors? What will I tell my professors," Li Juan bit her nails,

"If you were worried about your work, then you shouldn't have hopped around in slippery floor,"

"I was carefully walking out of the shower, i heard my phone ringing, that's why i rushed out and fell on the way," She shook her head and reached out for her mobile, "Who called me, by the way?"

"It was me, when I came back, I couldn't find you anywhere," Lee Tae Yang said honestly,

"Were you worried about me?"

"Yes, you are living with me, if something happens to you...I will be the one who has to answer your family," He casually said and stood up from the bed, "You take rest, i will prepare the dinner,"

After a quick shower, Lee Tae Yang prepared the dinner and ate with Li Juan in her room,

"Can you please get me my laptop?" As soon as Lee Tae Yang returned after cleaning the dishes, Li Juan demanded, "I need to study more...I was drawing blank while working in the lab,"

"Don't stay up for a long time," He gave her laptop and advised,

"Are you going to sleep?"

"No,"

"Are you free now?" Li Juan asked again,

He wobbled his head in agreement,

"I have something to ask you," Li Juan waited for a moment, "Are you the one who sponsored my research?"

"No, but you did secure a scholarship from Lee Corporations," He proudly said,

"Why do I smell nepotism in your words?"

Upon hearing Li Juan's words, Lee Tae Yang chuckled,

"It was partially because of Tae Min. He was the one who sent your grade cards and asked whether it is possible to give you a scholarship,"

"So it wasn't because you loved me?" She asked with a pout,

"If it was out of love, then I would have given everything I own," He stood up with a seductive smile, "If you need anything, feel free to call me,"

Li Juan was left dazed, when she heard his reckless words,

"Hmm, goodnight then sleep well,"

"Good night," Lee Tae Yang left the room with a pleasant face, for some reasons, the whole situation between them felt like old days, when he used to look after Li Juan while she was hospitalized,

After reading the E-books for more than one hour, Li Juan's eyes and temples started to ache. She shut down the laptop and reclined to the bed, waiting for sleep,

Once Lee Tae Yang done with his work, he dropped by Li Juan's room to replace her ice pack. However, when his eyes fell on her sleepy face, he sat beside her and gently stroked her soft hair, her eyes, her cheeks...

This what he feared the most when Li Juan suggested to live together,

His self restrain was on the verge of breaking...

Lee Tae Yang sighed and covered her soft lips with his own, stealing the sweetness from her.

When his cool reverent lips fell on her, the girl under him creased her eyebrows, making Lee Tae Yang froze at the spot.

Did he wake her?

However, Li Juan subconsciously licked her lips and went back to sleep,

Her simple gesture pushed Lee Tae Yang's mind into chaos,

His eyes paused at her bright red lips. They were so plump and full as if it was specially designed for kissing,

The corner of his mouth twitched as a flaming desire burned his rationality completely away. He felt his body go rigid to a point where he could not move. As if his field of vision was confined to her lips as he slowly inched his head downwards,

Impulsively, he wished to ignore the consequences and craved to kiss her awake,

However, he abruptly stopped and pressed his lips on her forehead, the flame in his eyes softening into a doting expression,

"Xiao Li," He called her in deep husky voice, " I don't think I can restrain myself anymore...Before I do something immoral to you... please remember me,"

He sighed and covered her properly with the blanket before leaving the room,

As Lee Tae Yang's shadow left the room, Li Juan fluttered opened her eyes into the darkness, tenderly searching for the warmth which he left behind,

"Kiss me once again and I am yours,"
