"Yu Yan, are you sure you are not down with a fever, how can you plan a wedding in a month, you need to get a stunning wedding dress, tuxedo, venue, invitation and much other preparation, how can you do that in just ONE MONTH," An Ke rebuked, she couldn't believe her ears especially since Yu Yan used to dream of a big extravagant wedding with Chen Kai which she knows she shouldn't bring up now.
"Also you haven't even had an engagement party yet, he was telling me about having one and using the opportunity to announce his real identity," Li Chen added but they stared at him with a look of disbelief except for An Ke.
"Since when did the both of you get so close, he even tells you things like that.
"Well he didn't say it to only me, he told all of us except for you and Yu Yan," he responded.
"We have been engaged for a long time, why do we need an engagement party now when we can just have a wedding and seal the deal," she protested, she just feels that they are making it too much of a deal, when she can't even wait a month to get married to him.
"Even without the engagement party, he already plans to announce his identity on Han Corporation's golden anniversary, which is just in one week so you can't expect him to have a simple wedding cos by then he will have to invite many people to the wedding and it will make headlines," Jia Yu explained to help her get a hint of reality.
"That's right, Yu Yan, the man you are getting married to is not the CEO of an ordinary company but the leading corporation, he can't get it done in just a month," Jia Yu added.
"Who said I can't get it done?" they heard someone ask, they all turned in the direction of the familiar voice and they were surprised to see Han Chen standing at the entrance of their office with a faint smile on his face, Yu Yan immediately sprung up from her seat then she ran up to him and hugged him.
"Love is in the air,"
"Why are you here, brother?" Jia Yu asked, Yu Yan held his hand then led him in to take his seat.

"I just missed my wife-to-be a lot so I decided to clock out of work for an early break,"
"Dog food," An Ke commented.
"It really sucks to be the only single one in this friend group," Li Chen mumbled then sighed.
"You should put in more effort, I already started arranging the wedding, I set up a whole department at the company to take care of that,"
"Are you for real?" she was too excited to hear that after all the negativities and impossibilities they have been feeding her.
He nodded in affirmation, she threw her arms around his neck then pecked his cheeks.
"So you don't have to worry about anything, in less than a month everything will be set and I will be announcing our wedding and my identity at the company's golden anniversary," he continued, flexing his super ability in making her wish come true, after that motivation using their future children last night, he has decided to do it as fast as he can so he can get carbon copies of them real soon.
"I didn't know love can make two people so dumb, your staffs are already busy with many carryovers and acquisitions after my parents handed the work completely to you but you still made a department for your wedding," this is not the brother she has always known, she concluded in her mind.
"Anything for my love," both of them kept grinning at each other that the others couldn't stand being fed dog food right in their office so they all stood up to evacuate the office for them.
After they left, he moved his chair closer to her then held her hand.
"I didn't think it will be so hard to see each other after I completely took over the company, except on days like last night and today, we hardly ever see each other," he grumbled.
"I wish I could also take a leave but I am about to complete my residency so I have to work even harder,"
"It is alright, we can just use our wedding as an excuse to spend time together," he stroked her face, she placed her hand on top of his.
"I didn't think you were really going to take me seriously, I was already thinking of how to convince you when you come home during the weekend," she was really touched to the bones, she was feeling a bit guilty for thinking only about herself when they told her his situation but now she is glad he can manage, after all, it is not just her wedding but their wedding.

"Let's invite your parents over to aunt's place so we can tell them about our decision and discuss,"
She nodded in agreement.
Beep Beep!
He glanced at his wristwatch.
"I have to return to the office now," he pouted his lips as he stood up from his seat, she stood up after him then they cuddled for a while before she let him go, he had almost left the office when she called his name then rushed up to him.
She raised her toes to plaster a kiss on his lips.
"You can leave now,"
He also pecked her forehead before leaving, she watched him from the door until he disappeared from the hallway, she sighed then returned to her seat.
Perhaps if they get married, they will have more time for each other but the nature of their job keeps them busy, now she can't help thinking if it is okay to have kids in the meantime so they don't end up getting neglected.
Meanwhile, Han Chen was leaving the hospital when he got held up by some of the doctors and surgeons who kept asking about his health, after all, he has been nicknamed the miracle patient ever since his miraculous awakening.
He just only managed to brush them off when he heard someone call his name, he turned back to see the one face he wants to see and doesn't want to see at the same time, a smirk broke out on his lips as he dipped his hands in his pocket while waiting for him to get to where he is standing.
"Mr Han, what a surprise to see you here, I don't think your leave has ended," Chen Kai remarked, setting the collar of his white coat.
"I don't think it is a surprise, after all, I have people to visit here," he responded.
"That's true but for someone who has just been discharged not long ago, you should be resting at home, not wandering around the hospital,"
"Wandering? I don't suppose taking my leave after paying my fiancé is considered wandering,"
"If you had died, we would have gotten back together," he said, expressing his discontent with his existence, his smirk broadened as he stepped closer to him.
"Unfortunately for you but even if I had died, Yu Yan would never have gotten together with you, she is not a dog to go back to her vomit," he retorted with full confidence, he narrowed his eyes at him but couldn't find a hint of insecurity.
"What makes you think she won't come back to me, she was mine before and I can make her mine again," he also moved a step closer staring right into his eyes but the height difference between them makes him feel inferior, weirdly.
"Because she had a taste of someone better than you, if at all, her standards will only be higher, that being said, I heard what you did to my woman while I was unconscious, that added to everything you did to Yu Yan, I promise you a nice payback," he smiled smugly then dusted his collars before turning to leave.
He gritted his teeth as she watched him leave.
He was already in the middle of investigating who the CEO of Han Corporation is but according to his information, the CEO is in the military currently so it is confirmed that Jia Yu's distant cousin is the one he is looking for, ever since he heard the news, he was glad the day Han Chen becomes superior to him will never come.
"He wasn't wrong at all," Xiaomeng remarked as she walked towards him, he furrowed his brows at her presence, unlike before, he noticed that she seems more bright and carefree these days.
"Xiaomeng,"
"I was just about to go to your office but I ended up overhearing the last bit of your conversation but I must say he is not wrong if I had met him before you perhaps I would have fallen in love with him instead, after all, there is nothing you have that he doesn't and he is even better," she nonchalantly stated with her arms folded on her chest.

The Monster Inside: The First Vampire
Despite appearances, there was once a time where monsters did not exist. Where peace and prosperity reigned over all life. But those sinful and demonic forces that had hidden themselves in the shadows just couldn't help themselves could they? They wanted a piece of that prosperity too. They wanted to taint it, corrupt it, revel in its dark side.This is the story of a boy who was tainted. Of a boy who unintentionally bore a seed of sin and who in his naivety let it out. This is the story of how that boy was shamed and disgraced. Of how he was outcast for simply being. This is the story of how that boy learned to embrace the darkness that made him different. A darkness that would later make him known as the Lord of Night. Note to Reader: I understand this book is not for everyone, if there is a writer that can write to please everyone, I have never heard of them. The MC can be frustrating in his decisions as he learns to grow and accept what and who he is. I believe this reality is unavoidable. That being said, if you feel the need to give a review, please do so, just know that I will report you if all that review seems to do is blab toxic language and insult my literary choices without giving constructive advice or alternatives. That's not just a me policy, that's a policy of this website. I'm not writing this note because I'm a writer who does not acknowledge that there are faults in my work. I know there are. That's what happens when it hasn't been professionally edited by someone other than the author. I'm saying this because I'm sick of reading 1 star or 0.5 star rated reviews that seem to do nothing but hate on the book because they don't like the story. No comments on grammar, ways to improve or suggestions for better story arcs. Just plain hate. It's not on, and I frankly shouldn't have to write this note, but needed to get it off my chest. In saying all that, thank you to those who do leave reviews that don't fall into the above category. Your appreciation of my work, or alternatively, your willingness to give advice for improvement, is appreciated.
