''I know what you are thinking,'' Grandpa Yu shook his head, ''I forced her to get herself a man.''

Her frown deepened.

''Listen to me first before you start blaming me,'' Grandpa Yu sighed, ''After her parents, she has no one else other than me. Before something happens to me, I want her to settle down-''

''She has us. And you are still strong and young. Moreover, Shuang is a strong woman. Now that she is the CEO of Dream Entertainment, she does not needs a man to rely on, does she?" Yu Mei interrupted him.

''No matter how strong she shows herself to be, in the end, under that cold face, she is still naive and innocent. Easily broken and trampled on like that Zhu Boqin did with her,'' He paused, ''I knew he was not a decent man but that bastard tested his luck eyeing both my granddaughters...''

''It's all in the past.''

''...I know but I still want her to find a shoulder to lean on so I gave her an ultimatum. Either she finds herself a boyfriend, or I will arrange a fiancé for her. Since this Edward guy was pursuing her, she decided to stick to him to satisfy me. Let's see where it goes. If they are compatible, I will be happy or else, this time, I will look for a decent man for her...''

Yu Mei was speechless.

As the old man left, her phone started ringing, ''Luoluo...''

''Mei, why didn't you tell me that Jun Boyan is here at my place?'' Shi Luo spoke through gritted teeth.

Yu Mei walked towards a pillar before leaning back on it, ''It slipped off my mind. But what happened?"

''My mom walked-''

Yu Mei glanced at her phone. Her battery was dead. Just as she was contemplating it, a hand grabbed her wrist pulling her away from the crowd and noise.

''Where are you taking me?" She asked Jun ZIxuan, surprised by his sudden move but the man just dragged her until they were in the elevator.

While they walked away, they did not notice an old man who was intently looking at their retreating backs. He pulled his cap down before walking out of the private exit.

As the door closed, Jun Zixuan stepped towards her. ''I thought you were busy...''

She retreated to the corner, ''Of course, I was,'' She shrugged.

He lowered his head, placing his forehead against hers. Her alluring scent invaded his senses while she wrapped around his waist. He leaned closer to her, letting his lips graze past her cheek.

Her neck arched to a side as his lips trailed down to her chin.

''W-We are in the elevator,'' She whispered, pressing her palms on his chest.

He wrapped his arms around her waist, his thumb stroked her back through the layers of her gown, ''Doesn't matters...'' He bit her chin.

'Ding'

The elevator door opened and she quickly pushed him away as an old couple stepped inside, ''See, it does matters,'' She whispered teasingly.

Jun Zixuan's gaze darkened, ''I think we can try things here. More people. More exciting. What do you say?" He spoke softly enough that only she could hear him, ''Hmm?" He pinned her hands behind her back.

Her eyes widened as she glanced at the old couple who had their back turned towards them.

Without any warning, his lips descended on hers.

This man...

His manly scent lingered invaded her nose and her knees buckled as he deepened the kiss, sucking her tongue. Her lower body turned limp but he supported her, letting her fall on him as he kissed her passionately.

She almost let out a moan when he bit her bottom lips but her moan was drowned in his kiss. Finally, when he let go of her, her head fell onto his chest as she was completely breathless.

She glanced at the old couple who were standing still. Luckily...the glass was opaque so they could not have seen anything. Where else would she have buried her face?

...

''Why is it dark here?" Jun Zixuan frowned as soon as he stepped inside the Presidential suite. It was alright when he left.

Just as he was about to call Steward Gu, he felt a tug on his hand, ''Come with me?"

He raised an eyebrow. Has this got something to do with her? He let her drag himself towards without any objections.

Yu Mei took him to the balcony of the Presidential suite. She pressed a key on her phone and the dim lightings in the huge glass balcony lit up as soft music drifted off around the place.

Jun Zixuan glanced at the round table in the middle and his gaze settled on the small glazed chocolate cake, which looked only a bit larger than a cupcake.

Yu Mei quickly dragged him towards the cake. She grabbed the candle from the table before placing it on the cake. She then picked up the lighter before lighting the candle, ''Quick, blow the candle. I'll sing the birthday song, okay?"

''It's childish,'' The corner of his lips twitched as he turned his face to the side, the tips of his ears slowly turned red.

She grabbed his arm, ''Be it then. Still, you have to do it. Please~"

Looking at her excited face, he could not bring himself to say no to her. In the end, he tucked his hand in his pocket before bending forward.

Yu Mei grabbed her gown in one hand before stepping to the side. She quickly clicked some pictures while singing the birthday song like her over-enthusiastic self, ''...Happy Happy happy Birthday to youuuuu~''

Jun Zixuan blew the lone candle on the cake. He grabbed a spoon from the table before taking a spoonful of cake and stuffing it her mouth...

''Mmm.. Whapppie Bur--''

He licked the chocolate cream off her lips and the rest of the birthday song died in her throat.

''Enough happy birthday already,'' He hooked his arms around her waist, ''I thought you did not remember it?"

A/N: I had to write 7 chapters today for my first book's completion. And while I want to, but I can't write the 2nd chapter here today. It is 10:50 pm here and I am very exhausted and sleep-deprived. And although I can fight that with coffee, it will affect the quality of the chapter. So, have some patience with me. Thank you.

A little spoiler, Tomorrow's chapters are going to make you really happy!
