Lihua gasped in shock.

Oh my God!

She looked back at Wei in disbelief.

Did you hear that!?

He simply nodded.

Inside, Shen Yang stared at Jiang Ruiling, dumbfounded.

"Young mistress, please don't say such things! If anybody heard you talking to a mere bodyguard then-"

"Then what?" She smiled.

Lihua coughed.

Well, we already heard it…

Shen Yang gritted his teeth and shook off her hand. "I need to be back on duty."

Jiang Ruiling stopped his way as she held his wrist. "Why are you leaving? I know you want it too. I have seen you lovingly staring at me so many times."

Shen Yang froze.

"Your eyes that looked at only me and your expression that said how you wished to hold me - I have felt it so many times that I have lost count now," she tiptoed and whispered near his ear. "You don't need to hide your urges anymore. It's just me and you in this room. Nobody will find out anything."

A mischievous glint flashed in her eyes and she intertwined her fingers against his. She raised his hand and slowly placed it on her chest. "See? You hear it right? My heart is racing so fast. I cannot wait for you to touch me."

He swiftly shook it away and sternly looked at her. "Young mistress. I ask you not to do this. You are the heiress of the Jiang family. There can be nothing between us. Please think about your future with...Mr. Wen Yaoting. That will be good for everyone."

Before he left, he turned to say, "Also, please don't call me again on the pretext of being in danger."

Jiang Ruiling chuckled. "You will still come to me no matter how many times I lie, right?"

Silence.

"Oh yeah. If you change your mind then I am always here ready for you," she smiled.

He stiffened.

"And of course, you are coming with me tomorrow. As my capable bodyguard, you have to be at my side even if it's a date."

His gaze slightly dimmed. "Yes, young mistress."

Lihua heard his steps and immediately pulled Wei's arm. They quickly hid behind a pillar and saw Shen Yang coming out of the room.

"Wow…I must admit that Jiang Ruiling is so bold! But I wonder what she will do now? I cannot really see her marrying Wen Yaoting just like that. Can we not do anything to help her?"

She seemed to be in deep thought.

*Meow*

Lihua, the cat yawned.

Humans have so many troubles.

Wei said, "Make them marry."

"..."

Lihua blinked. "How?"

"Get them marriage certificates."

He said as if it was no big deal.

She coughed. "If only it was that easy. Didn't you say before that if Shen Yang doesn't admit to his feelings then this whole matter is pointless?"

"So he only has to admit it."

"But he is so stubborn!"

Wei innocently tilted his head. "Pointing a gun at his head will do the trick."

!!!

"Wei! You cannot be a hooligan when there are feelings here! Threatening is not a solution."

He pursed his lips in disappointment.

"We have to do something to make Shen Yang confess it anyhow. Something to break his stubbornness…But what?"

---

The next day, Jiang Ruiling along with Shen Yang reached the restaurant where the date was supposed to be.

"Wei! They are here!"

Lihua, who was secretly hiding at a corner table, tugged Wei. They came wearing casual clothes not to catch anybody's attention to spy on Jiang Ruiling's date. Even though Wei had an important meeting today, he ditched it at the last moment when Lihua asked him to accompany him to spy.

How could he have the heart to reject his wife?

So, now the meeting was upon the poor assistant Fu Renshu's shoulders

"En," Wei dotingly smiled and nodded.

"I still don't see Wen Yaoting yet," she frowned.

She looked at Wei and asked, "What did you find about him?"

Last night, Lihua had asked Wei to get all information on Wen Yaoting

Wei said, "The Wen group has been our business partner for five years now. Wen Yaoting is currently the President of the Wen group. His father is the CEO."

"Oh! And what did you find about Wen Yaoting as a person?"

"Renshu said that he is quite a playboy. He had many flings in the past. His position as the President is in shambles too."

"Why?"

"He invested in a project that incurred losses on the Wen group. His father was furious and almost threw him out of his position. But he doesn't have any other heir so he didn't."

Lihua flared. "Why does Old Madam choose such horrible men for the daughters of the Jiang family? First, she chose that Li Tingzhe, the cheater for Aunt Xiurang and now Wen Yaoting is a playboy! His nature is questionable and he doesn't seem to have any business sense either! Does Old Madam have any grudges on the women?"

Her cute, puffed-up cheeks urged Wei to pinch them and he did.

"You look cute when you are angry."

Lihua coughed. "This is not the time to flirt. I-"

Her sight fell on the entrance where she saw a man wearing flashy clothes enter the restaurant. Lihua was dumbfounded. "Is that Wen Yaoting?"

Wei glanced at him and nodded at her. "En."

Her mouth twitched. "His clothes are so... bright and flashy. This is supposed to be a date!"

Jiang Ruiling, who was waiting for Wen Yaoting, saw him coming towards her. His clothes almost blinded her.

Shen Yang didn't show any reaction, but inwardly he grimaced.

Such disrespect to the young mistress. What kind of clothes are that to wear for a date?

Wen Yaoting was in no mood to go on this date. But his father had kicked him out of the house threatening to leave or he would disown him.

Damn, I had to cancel my date with that hot chick!

But when his gaze fell upon Jiang Ruiling, he froze. He looked at her, stunned.

What a beauty!
