"Say that again." Zi Jue whispered as he drew nearer to Yan Qing Shan"s ear. His breath tickled her lobes bringing an indescribable fluttering in her stomach. Her cheeks reddened without her notice. Yan Qing Shan couldn"t help suck in her breath inaudibly."Say what again?" She asked stiffly, trying to maintain her composure. Again and again, this man proved his lethality. Even his little gestures could affect her so much. Yan Qing Shan could not help but lament in her mind.
"What you said a while ago." Zi Jue impatiently replied. His face full of expectations.
"Compared to me, he"d rather marry you? Is that it?" Yan Qing Shan gave in to the temptation of teasing Zi Jue. This guy really focused on something totally out of topic. She almost wanted to laugh but at the same time she felt giddy. She relished in the fact that she could elicit such a reaction from this powerful man.
"No. Not that. The one after it." He insisted with furrowed brows. Yan Qing Shan lightly giggled in his arms.
"He might sneak up and s.n.a.t.c.h you from me?" Zi Jue let her go and held her in the shoulders. His eyes staring directly at her. Yan Qing Shan saw the slight exasperation in his eyes. And was that a pout? Zi Jue was actually pouting like a kid whose lollipop was taken away.
Yan Qing Shan felt as if her throat was parched. Zi Jue looked so tempting at the moment, she couldn"t believe he was capable of such an expression. It was... too cute. She got an unstoppable urge to kiss him senseless.
"No. The word before that." Impatience and disappointment colored his tone.
Yan Qing Shan gave in. She removed his firm grasp on her shoulders. Afterwhich, she gently pulled him in, her palms to his cheeks, until there was only a breadth of hair between their heads. Yan Qing Shan could feel his warm breath. His scent tickling her nose which made her beam with a smile.
"Baby." She softly whispered with undeniable affection. And then all of a sudden, without her giving any thought to it, Yan Qing Shan gave him a light peck on the lips. With a smirk, she went back to the table and left behind a frozen devil.
Housekeeper Liu saw that Miss Yan has already returned to the table and were already chatting with her visitors. However, he couldn"t seem to find his master by her side. Which was quite strange considering that his Master Jue transforms into a handsome koala bear clinging without shame to Miss Yan.
He looked to the spot where the couple was talking a while ago. And there was his master, as still as a marble statue. Liu Ying hurriedly approached him for fear that something bad has happened.
"Miss Yan, what have you done this time?"
The little Housekeeper complained in his little heart. When he arrived by Zi Jue"s side, Liu Ying saw the strangest sight. Probably one of the topmost he has ever seen, and that"s saying quite a lot.
His master was as red as a tomato, smiling like a fool, touching his lips lightly. Housekeeper Liu shook his head, his expression unexplainable. He carefully tapped his master"s shoulder, waking him up from his stupor. Liu Ying was afraid that if he left him like that a second more. Zi Jue might never be normal again.
"Master, are you alright? Won"t you join them at the table?" Housekeeper Liu kept his tone as normal as possible. Though there was still the subtlest trace of inexplicable emotion in his voice.
"...." Zi Jue remained silent. He didn"t even budge from his position from a while ago. Housekeeper Liu sucked in a cold breath and was about to call on to him again. But he was cut off when Zi Jue called his name.
"Liu Ying." He said in a voice painted with the pink of an obvious bliss. Housekeeper Liu straightened his already alert back in antic.i.p.ation of his words. His nerves frazzled at the worst of possibilities.

"Everyone get a raise for this month. Make sure that is carried out." Zi Jue slowly said as he finally looked at Liu Ying side.
"Everyone, master?" Housekeeper Liu was in disbelief. Does his master mean that every single one of his employees gets a raise? He knew Zi Jue could very well afford it. Such raise was mere pocket change for him.
"Yes. Join us after you"ve sorted it out." Zi Jue dismissed as he walked back to the table and clung unto his love once again. Housekeeper Liu couldn"t help but think that if not for the sake of dignity, his master might have scampered back to her like a joyful rabbit. A devilish rabbit, but joyful, nonetheless. He shook his head once again. How happy was his master this time to even get to this point? What more if Miss Yan did something greater in the future? Would he be able to get a year"s worth of vacation?
"Miss Yan truly is a wonder."
