Wei was having trouble understanding her. He remembered that Mrs. Zhang had the same thing to him.

'Just say that you are genuinely sorry and she will forgive you.'

But Wei didn't take it seriously because how could just two words be enough? Simple gestures like that were unknown to him.

Lihua could clearly see the imaginary question mark above his head. When she thought back to all the time she spent with him until now, something clicked her.

"Boss. When you k-kissed me," she blushed a little mentioning that, "had you asked anyone about it?"

Wei nodded. "En. You were scared and crying last night. So, I asked my acquaintance how to console you. He told me to shut you up with a kiss."

"..."

She never thought her first kiss would be because of someone's advice to console her.

No wonder Boss didn't seem much affected.

"Then he told me what to tell you about Song Jia, but you got angrier instead."

She widened her eyes. "It was him!?"

"En."

Lihua gritted her teeth.

That man! And here I blamed my poor Boss.

Then Wei said about his apology research on the internet and why he brought the diamond set.

"Women like jewelry is what I read and if I gifted her that, she would be happy. But once again, you didn't seem to like it. So I turned to Fu Renshu."

Her mouth twitched.

"Show your sincerity by blood…"

"En."

Lihua completed putting the band-aid. She understood where the problem lied.

"Boss if I may say... Please d-don't get offended."

Wei curiously waited.

"Please stop asking advice to your acquaintance and Assistant Fu. They are not dependable at all."

He blinked his eyes.

"They are giving you wrong advice!"

"Is that so…? But Renshu's advice worked."

Lihua sighed. "I only said that because you were hurting yourself and kneeling in front of everyone. Boss, how can you not think about your image? I am just an intern you hired recently and you were ready to kneel and bang your head. Didn't you find it embarrassing? You are a billionaire CEO and I am just a…"

Wei tilted his head. "I only wanted you to talk to me again. I didn't find it embarrassing."

*Badump*

Her heart throbbed in her chest. It beat faster and faster as his serious and penetrating gaze locked onto hers.

Lihua stared at him wide-eyed.

Just like that he innocently flirted again even though he didn't realize it.

Lihua lowered her head, trying to hide her pink cheeks.

"A-anyway. What I meant to ask was…" she raised her head and faced him, "are you having trouble understanding emotions?"

Wei stiffened. But then he wondered why he froze.

He felt as if she found some guilty secret about him she wasn't supposed to know.

Wei had knowledge about everything, but when Lihua asked if there was something that he didn't know about, he suddenly felt as if he lacked somewhere. And he instinctively wished to hide it from her because unconsciously, he wanted her to see only his good points.

But he didn't understand why he felt that way.

Wei couldn't answer her.

But Lihua got it anyway.

Ah, no wonder his reactions were always so drastic. The blank cheque, the kiss, the diamond set, and then the kowtowing…

But she failed to understand how anyone could be so closed off with emotions to that extent?

But no matter the reason, her heart hurt to finally realize this fact. She had a sudden urge to cry.

Living without understanding the joy of feeling different emotions would be so lonely. Wouldn't it feel like a machine? It was as if he was a white blank page who knew nothing about the beautiful colors that life held.

And seeing Wei struggling to find his answers and trying his best to understand and communicate them made her heart ache for him.

The billionaire CEO who had everything and who everyone envied lived such a lonely life until now. He saw others enjoying their lives, but he didn't know how to enjoy it himself.

Tears plopped down her eyes, shocking Wei.

"You are crying again."

That strange feeling tugged his chest again. He didn't want to see her cry.

Before Lihua could say anything, Wei leaned in and captured her lips in a kiss once again like last night.

Lihua jolted and widened her eyes.

G-Godly handsome prince is kissing me again!

Her mind was in haywire. She couldn't think of anything else because her brain and all thoughts melted the moment his soft lips merged with hers. They gently traveled across her lips in a comforting manner that bloomed her heart in joy and warmth.

Wei slowly parted away. He lowered his gaze to look at her tomato-red face. His face was still dangerously close to hers.

"You say their advice is wrong, but you stop crying when I kiss you. That means it works," he seemed thoughtful.

Lihua furiously blushed.

"T-that that!"

She felt as if she lost her face.

"I-I am still right. Y-You cannot kiss me whenever I am crying. Only boyfriends kiss their girlfriends a-and we are not that…" she mumbled.

Wei tilted his head. "Your friend said that couples kiss. We kissed. Now twice. We should be a couple too."

"..."

Yaya!

"No, Boss. It doesn't work that way. You are a couple when you like that person and have feelings for them. Just holding hands or kissing doesn't form a relationship."

But then again, he has difficulty in understanding feelings.

That's it. I have decided!

"Boss. Let's do one thing! From today onwards, I will tell you all about emotions. I cannot teach you how to feel them, but I can show you the small experiences that trigger them. It doesn't have to be something expensive or fancy."

Her eyes shone like the brightest star in the sky, leaving Wei in a stupor as he watched her.

"Your dull life ends now! Trust me. I will fill your life with all the colors that you missed seeing until now. I won't let you struggle anymore with the answers because this time, I would be right beside you."
