Cheng Tao who was keenly listening to Li Juan's conversation with her "boyfriend" waited for his opportunity to tease her as they searched for a dress in the clothing store in Ellem mall,

"I thought you would have changed after starting living with him...But you still drool over him, even through a phone conversation," Cheng Tao scrunched up his face and gave her a tissue,

"Who?" Li Juan raised her eyebrows,

"You," Cheng Tao give her a tissue and ,"Wipe off the drool from your face. You are living with the nation's husband. I can't even think about Zhang Zhi Jun's fans reactions when they get to know about their idol has been already taken,"

"Wait a minute, whom are you talking about?" She asked in doubt,

"Don't act like you don't know anything. He himself told me that you guys are getting married," Cheng Tao refuted,

"First brother, said what? Li Juan who was ignorant about Cheng Tao's accusation stared, " When?"

"Huh, who is your first brother?"

"Zhang Zhi Jun is Noona's cousin," Lee Tae Min who is silent till now, opened his mouth and stated,

"What?" Cheng Tao gasped, "You are getting married to your cousin? Is that even legal?"

"He is my uncle's adopted son, we don't share any immediate blood relations," Li Juan declared with an indifferent face,

"Ahhhh I see. So when are you getting married?"

"I am not getting married to first brother,"

"Are you planning to get married once the coast is clear? Until then are you going to stay together?" Cheng Tao asked like a paparazzi reporter,

"I am not staying with him,"

"Why his agency won't allow you to stay together? Are they worried that you people will do some racy stuff?" He asked with a sly smile,

"Thud," Li Juan hit Cheng Tao with her bag, "how can you say like that about him?"

"Ah why? Now I am damn sure that you are doing racy stuff with him,"

Li Juan covered his mouth her palm and stopped him from blabbering anymore nonsense,

"Zhang Zhi Jun, my first brother..he lives in alone and I live with my boyfriend,"

"Huh?"

Li Juan turned towards Lee Tae Min and mouthed, "Will you say it or should I say?"

Cheng Tao removed the slender arms which covered his mouth and glared the duo before him in shock.

"Huhhhh....you two are..,"

"Uffooo...how can someone be so dumb?" Li Juan face palmed, " I am living with his brother,"

"Your brother? That commando guy?" Cheng Tao asked again to confirm, he remembered Lee Tae Min's brother who came to pick an injured Li Juan from Tu valley in military aircraft,

"Commando guy?"

"Captain Guan is my second cousin. I have another brother," Lee Tae Min cleared his doubt,

"That cold blooded brother...you are dating him? You and that sunny guy?" Cheng Tao clearly remembered Lee Tae Min's brother whose ideal type of was Li Juan.

"Did you really introduce Lily to your brother?" He interrogated Lee Tae Min only to receive even more shocking news,

"She even visited my family in soul city," He casually said and wrapped his arm over Li Juan's shoulder, "Now, Noona is my sister in law,"

"Woahhhh, Lily you're a CEO Magnet...like every single one of your boyfriends are CEO's" Even before Cheng Tao spew any shades over Li Juan's past, Lee Tae Min stopped him with a deadly glare,

"Noona can you look in the ladies section, we will be right back," He suggested and dragged Cheng Tao to the other side,

" Yaaa...where are you taking me?" Cheng Tao bawled,

"Senior Cheng, how can you forget that noona had a memory loss?" He crossed his arms over his chest and asked, "So just don't remind her anything. She is happy with my brother and probably they will get married once Noona is completes her research,"

While Lee Tae Min and Cheng Tao was conversing about Li Juan, a good looking guy approached Li Juan who was skimming through the apparel section for woman.

"Hey Lily, it's been a while,"

Li Juan turned around and met with a man who was smiling at her,

"Do I know you?"

Hearing her reply, he broke into laughter,

"It's almost a year and can't believe that you are still using this phrase on me,"

"I seriously don't remember you, Mr-"

"Lu Gui Meng, we met at Tang Wei Sheng's birthday party and I asked you out..." He explained to the girl who was looking at him without any sense of familiarity. "You don't remember? We even ran into you and your other boyfriend,"

"Other boyfriend?" Li Juan's eye brows raised in query,

"I mean, that day I came to your house to apologize I saw Tang Wei Sheng. He said that you guys are high school sweet hearts and he was quite desolate when he found that you were cheating on him. Since you are going around and sleeping with different men-"

"What are you implying?" Li Juan crossed her arms and asked with an murderous glare,

"The same. I am interested in you, so why don't we date?"

"I have a boyfriend," She shrugged her shoulders,

"Who is this time?" Lu Gui Meng asked in a mocking tone,

"Noona, what happened? Who is this guy?" Lee Tae Min who saw a man approaching his Noona, he rushed towards her.

"This is your new boyfriend?" Lu Gui Meng scanned the young man who stood beside Li Juan, "Oh you really have an eye for good looking men!"

"Maybe that's why I am not interested in you," Li Juan said with a condescending sneer and looked at Cheng Tao,

"Senior Cheng, did you finish?"

"No, I couldn't find -"

"Good, then let's go," Li Juan threw back her head and strode towards the exit, leaving a bewildered Lu Gui Meng behind,

"Lily, where are you going?" Cheng Tao who was following Li Juan asked again,

"Chosen," She said with a proud face and led him to the "Chosen" brand's huge boutique in the top floor of the Ellem mall,

"Yaaaa, this place is huge," Cheng Tao wondered as he wandered around the huge boutique with surprised face, "Don't you think this is bit costly,"

"Nope," Li Juan said with a cheerful tone and selected an elegant dress in peach colour, "What do you think about this?"

"Perfect, my mom loves this colour,"

Once Li Juan selected the dress, the sales girl approached her,

"Good evening, ma'am,"

"Good evening, can you ring these up?"

" Sure ma'am," The sales girl took the dress from her and walked towards the billing counter,

While the trio was waiting a man wearing fashionable clothes and golden rimmed glasses approached Li Juan with a surprised face,

"Ma'am, oh my god, you are finally here,"

"How are you, designer Qin?" Li Juan greeted the man,

Desinger Qin Kai was the head designer of Chosen's C country edition. He was the one who is in charge of scouting Li Juan as one of their models.

"I never thought that I will ran into you here,"

"Ma'am your bill," The lady at the billing counter said and passed the bill,

"How can you ask young miss to pay?" Qin Kai reprimanded the staff.

"Its okay designer Qin. I came with my friend," Li Juan smiled and gave her card to pay,

"We have strict orders from CEO Cha," Qin Kai refused the black platinum card from Li Juan,"Second young master, please tell young miss that there is no need to pay,"

"Yes, Noona." Lee Tae Min added, "You are now part of our family,"

"Can anyone explain me what exactly happening here?" Cheng Tao who failed to recognize the content of their conversation asked in a low voice,

"My mother owns Chosen,"

Cheng Tao wanted to cry, he knew that Lee Tae Min's mother is fashion designer. But he never knew that she owns an international fashion brand,

"My mom loves my brother than me, but recently she got someone else to dote," Lee Tae Min said and looked at Li Juan, "See this," He opened the gallery and showed the recently clicked photograph of his family.

It was the photograph which Lee family took when their first young master brought his girlfriend home,

However when Cheng Tao's eyes found the familiar silhouette standing beside Li Juan, his eyes widened,

"Dr Liang is your brother?" He pointed his finger on the phone's screen.

"Who?"

"This guy, isn't he Li Juan's doctor?"

Lee Tae Min bobbed his head in agreement,

"He is your brother, who is the CEO, but he is also a doctor and these two are dating?" Cheng Tao gaped in utter confusion,

"My brother used to work as a doctor before he became the CEO of Lee corporations,"

"If he is your brother, then he should have came with us. But he was with the other team when we went to Tu valley. Why is that so?"

"Who was the team leader of that team?" Lee Tae Min pointed his finger at Li Juan and grinned,

"But that time Zhang Zhi Jun was-" Cheng Tao scratched his head, "Just tell me, how many guys wished to marry you?

"Do you know that I belong to the Yu clan? In our clan there are certain rules for getting married, there will be few suitors- I can choose anyone one from them. First brother was one among them, young master Guan too," Li Juan explained for Cheng Tao,

"Captain Guan was also your suitor? How? "

"Ahhh it is too complicated for your brain. You only need to know that I love his brother, we may or may not get married soon," Li Juan declared with a proud face and took the package from the counter to hand over to Cheng Tao,

"Convey my birthday wishes to your mother,"

"Ahhh, I will," He replied with a perplexed face, "Where are we going next?"

"Let's go to mart, I want to buy abalones," Li Juan cheerfully said and hopped across the pavement,

After grocery shopping Lee Tae Min went with Li Juan and helped her in the preparation of dinner,

Around eight in the evening, Lee Tae Yang came back from his work,

Since Lee Tae Min was staying over for dinner, he quickly went to take a shower.

When he stepped out the bathroom after showering, he saw Lee Tae Min sitting on his bed with an ice-cold expression on his face.

"Hyung, when are you going to marry Noona?"

"Huh?"

"She is living with you and every one treats you as a couple. Then why aren't you proposing her?" Lee Tae Min was serious about bringing Lee Tae Yang and Li Juan together,

"Minah," Lee Tae Yang called his brother in a softened tone, "I know that she loves me, but in order to get married we need more understanding of a person. For your Noona, I am still a stranger, may be a little more than that. I cannot force her into marriage," He explained,

"But Noona loves you,"

"I know, but-"

"Someone was hitting on Noona, today," Lee Tae Min interrupted him with downcast eyes, "He even said that Noona cheated on Tang Wei Sheng with someone and since she is like that, he asked whether she is available. He even called me Noona's boy toy,"

Lee Tae Yang's eyes blazed like fire stones as he listened to Lee Tae Min's words,

"Who is he?" his tone laced with murderous aura,

"CEO of Ellem shopping mall," Lee Tae Min uttered in disgust, "Though Noona didn't take it into any seriousness, I am sure that she must have felt bad," He grabbed Lee Tae Yang's strong arms,

"All it takes a ring, to tell the world that she is taken,"

Lee Tae Yang nodded in agreement, "I will talk to her,"

"knock, knock..," Li Juan's voice heard from outside, " Tae Yang, are you done taking shower?"

"Haa, We are coming," Lee Tae Yang replied and touched his brother's shoulder, "Come let's have dinner,"

Lee Tae Min followed his brother to the kitchen and helped Li Juan to serve the dishes,

Three of them sat across the table filled with various delicacies,

"There is going to be an annual business guild awards next week. Do you like to come with me?" Lee Tae Yang asked all of sudden,

Li Juan and Lee Tae Min looked at him in surprise, "Is he asking out her?"

Business guild awards was the biggest celebratory meeting in C country. Rather than an award show, it was more like a stage to showcase one's wealth and finding suitable partners between the corporate families.

Almost every eligible bachelor from the wealthy families in C country treat the show and the gala as a golden opportunity for match making,

"So his brother is going to take Li Juan as his partner and planning to tell everyone that they are a couple?" Lee Tae Min faintly smiled,

"Are you free on coming Sunday?" Lee Tae Yang inquired in anticipation,

"Ahhh actually I heard about the award function from eldest uncle," Li Juan said with a plain face,

"Yes, definitely Bai corporations will be on the list,"

"He invited me too...But I don't feel like going. Actually these kinds of parties are not my thing," She retaliated, "But later on, grandpa called me and told me to accompany first brother and Bai Yu...So I kind of,"

"Ahh its okay then," Lee Tae Yang agreed with a faint smile,

"I am really sorry, I should have asked you before agreeing to go with first brother. Should I call him and cancel?" Li Juan asked with an apologetic face and picked up her mobile to dial Zhang Zhi Jun,

"What are you doing? It is not like that you are going to spent the entire night with your family,"

"But I want to go with you," Li Juan said with a sulky face, "I really want to go,"
