Zhi Ruo silently tiptoed into the house, she walked towards her room and saw that the light was still on." Xiao Yong, are you still awake? " Zhi Ruo gently asked as she approached the gigantic bed in her room.
Hearing her approach the bed, w.a.n.g Yong immediately closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep. Zhi Ruo has told him to sleep but he didn"t listen.
Seeing his unnatural expression, Zhi Ruo immediately saw trough his trick but still teased him.
" Awn.., Xiao Yong is asleep. I won"t be able to give his gift. " Zhi Ruo sighed next to him.
Absorbing this information, w.a.n.g Yong"s ears instantly perked up and pretended to awaken.
" Hmm? Ruoruo, you are back? " he smiled tiredly like he woke up cause of the sound.
" Wow, such great acting..." Zhi Ruo gave him a thumbs up in her mind.

" Hmm. " Zhi Ruo smiled dotingly and pet his head, " I have a gift for you, do you want to see it? "
w.a.n.g Ying shook his head in excitement.
Zhi Ruo took out the box in her bag and handed it to him.
" Open it. " Zhi Ruo told him.
w.a.n.g Yong sat up properly on the bed and followed her instructions, opening the delicate black box with a gorgeous gold frame.
Inside of it was a gorgeous carrousel with magnificent horses that seemed to be carved out of the most luxurious rock in the world.
" Twist this. " Zhi Ruo pointed at the handle on the side of the box.
w.a.n.g Yong curiously turned the handle and a soft melody rang out.
" It"s a music box to help you fall asleep. " Zhi Ruo said with a light smile as she sat on the bed next to him.
Zhi Ruo let him enjoyed the soft and calming music from the box and when it finally came to an end she asked, " Do you like it? "
" I love it! Thank you! " w.a.n.g Yong happily cheered and hugged Zhi Ruo tightly, " I will cherish it all my life. "
Zhi Ruo slightly chuckled and petted his back, " I"m glad you like it. "
" I"ll go wash up and we"ll sleep okay? " Zhi Ruo said, standing up.
" Hmm. " w.a.n.g Yong mesmerizingly looked at the box.
After cleaning herself up, Zhi Ruo saw w.a.n.g Yong in the same position as earlier, listening to the music box.
" Xiao Yong, it"s very late, let"s go to sleep. " Zhi Ruo told him as she settled in her warm sheets that were heated by w.a.n.g Yong"s body heat.
" Okay. " w.a.n.g Yong obediently put his precious box on the nightstand next to him and also snuggled in.
" Hug. " he asked cutely.
Zhi Ruo opened her arms and he promptly hugged her waist naturally, his face buried on her bosom.
" Now sleep. " Zhi Ruo said.
Zhi Ruo"s right hand was on his back while her left hand was patting his soft hair.
" This big boss is so spoiled...I hope he won"t remember all of this when he goes back to normal..."
Not long after, the both of them slowly drifted to sleep.
...
Another five days pa.s.sed in a flash and w.a.n.g Yong completely familiarized himself with the family.
One day he would go out shopping with Hui Yin, another day he would play sports with Zhi Duyi or he would learn new pieces of knowledge with Zhi Chao.
But his favourites days were always the one with Zhi Ruo and he enjoyed every single moment even when she was working.
As for Zhi Ruo, she got more and more comfortable handling the company even though there was a lot of work and she barely managed to keep up with w.a.n.g Yong always clinging to her.
Zhi Ruo felt that it was less confusing and less tiring to read doc.u.ments or to figure out what solutions should be applied to what problem.
It was like wedding planning but in a different field with a lot more work.
That afternoon, w.a.n.g Yong was sitting next to Zhi Ruo while playing a coding game that Zhi Ruo taught him while Zhi Ruo was trying to figure out if this too good of a deal had a loophole or a trap.
A soft knock came from the other side of the door.
" Come in. " Zhi Ruo said with her head still buried in doc.u.ments.
Lin Xia walked in and informed her that someone was searching for her.
" Who is it? " Zhi Ruo asked.
" It"s an old couple with a small toddler. They said they are the Castel family and that you know them. " Lin Xia relayed the information.
" The Castel Family? " Zhi Ruo stopped her work and thought for a second.
" Oh...Liam! " Zhi Ruo exclaimed as she remembered the French bun.
" Bring them here and serve them tea and snacks. " Zhi Ruo instructed as she hurriedly finishes reading for the 50th time the contract.
Not long after, the Castel family went up the building and was sitting in her office.
" Angelica! " Liam cried out as he ran into her open arms.
" Hi, Liam, how are you doing? " Zhi Ruo lightly laughed as she held him up.
" I missed you a lot! " Liam said as he smooched her cheek.
As the continued to happily conversed, w.a.n.g Yong who was half-forgotten felt his whole body feel uncomfortable and his heart become gloomy.
" Ruoruo! " he spoke in a loud voice to catch her attention.
" Who is he? " w.a.n.g Yong asked in a detached voice.
