"You are free to sleep on the couch but make sure you leave my apartment before the other apartment owners wake up or else I will beat you to stupor if any weird rumours spread about me," Yang Zi said in a very mean tone.

"You sound as if you are spending the night out. From what I know, your mum's house is far away from yours so it will be impossible for you to get there on time or don't tell me you want to sleep in a hotel? You don't have to leave because of me as you can see I am not in the condition to take advantage of you even if I had wanted to so you can sleep in your room," Yifeng said feebly as he laid down on the couch. ​​

"Don't let it get to your head, I am not leaving because of you but I don't just feel comfortable sleeping in the same house with a stranger and besides I don't trust you so just sleep if you want to recover," Yang Zi said before she entered her bedroom. She came outside ten minutes later dressed all in black. She left after making sure that Yifeng was not running a fever. She had already given him fever relieving medicine just in case he started running temperature after she had left. As she walked to the door, Yifeng who had fallen asleep earlier opened his sleepy eyes momentarily before he shut it back almost immediately.

After Yang Zi left, she headed straight to Shiyi's Mansion. They used as their hideout for their activities. She was so relieved that Shui Shui and Shiyi had gone to the party since they won't be asking her the reason she left her house at such a late hour to sleep over there. She didn't waste time going to their room to sleep, she just slept on one couch in the sitting room since she was planning to leave there very early that morning. The rays of the early morning sun woke Yang Zi up.

"Damn it! I overslept," Yang Zi said as she instantly sat up. That was the first time in a long time she had slept peacefully without being haunted by nightmares. She grabbed both her handbag and car keys before she fled the house. She was scared that either of her friends might arrive then and met her in the house. She wouldn't know what to excuse to give if they were to meet her sleeping there. Putting on her seatbelt, she zoomed off without wasting another second there.

Walking to her apartments, Yang Zi had a beam of a smile on her face. She was so happy that there will be no Li Yifeng to annoy her when she gets to her apartment. Entering her apartments, her smile broadened when she did not see him in her sitting room.

"What the f*ck!" Yang Zi shouted in surprise immediately she opened her bedroom door.

"You are back. Where did you sleep last night?", Yifeng asked, not even feeling a bit ashamed that Yang Zi just met him stark naked.

"Don't you know how to lock the door if you were going to change or did you think you were in your mansion? And why the hell are you still in my house? Didn't I tell you to leave before daybreak?" Yang Zi who was now backing him asked angrily.

"I woke up late so I couldn't just leave leisurely when it was already bright outside. I bet the medicine you gave me must have made me oversleep", Yifeng said shamelessly as he put on his clothes with great difficulty. He was relieved that she had men's clothes in her wardrobe or else he would have to make do with her clothes.

"Meet me in the sitting room when you are through dressing up", Yang Zi admonished before she hurried away. It surprised Yifeng at how fast she walked. He could not help smiling when he recalled her bewildered expression when she opened the door. "So cute", Yifeng muttered to himself as he shook his head.

Yifeng met her in the sitting room, pacing with an angry look on her pretty face. He knew that he was in for another earful that early morning.

"I can see that you are dressed now, so leave my house before I do something I will regret," Yang Zi said, fuming angrily as she pointed her hands to the door.

"Are you sure you want me to leave?", Yifeng asked with a sly smile on his handsome face.

"Does it look to you like I want to spend another second with you? Hell no, so just get out of my house. Don't mistreat my kindness because if it was up to me I would have left you to die as a result of the cruel words you said to me that day. So, leave while I am still cool-headed. OK?", Yang Zi said fiercely, still pointing her finger to the door.

"Are you really sure you want to throw me out? Imagine what the neighbours will say when they see me walk out of your apartment. There will be rumours you are two-timing two highly profiled CEOs. The perfect image that you have built for the past three years as a high profile secretary of all time will go down the drain within twenty-four hours so I suggest you should think twice before you decide to throw me out," Yifeng said sitting down with his legs crossed like a king. What Yang Zi did next almost made him have a heart attack. Yang Zi suddenly started screaming with frustrations, startling sick Yifeng out of his wits.

"Miss Yang calm down, I won't eat you up by spending one more night here. I will just live as quietly as possible," Yifeng uttered secretly smiling.

"And who says you will spend another night here. No matter what, you will leave my house exactly at 1:00am today, OK?", Yang Zi said as she threw him a murderous glare.
