'Cling.... Cling'

'Cling.... Cling'

The sound of alarm disturbed the good sleep Yuerui was having.

"What the hell..." Yuerui cursed. She didn't realize that she was not in her house.

She reached for her phone while still keeping her eyes closed to see if it was her phone.

When she saw that it wasn't her phone her sleepy eyes fell on the time. It was 6.30 AM.

"Who in the world wakes up this early?" She murmured in sleepy voice.

She looked around and finally realized that she was not in her apartment.

'Whoa... Didn't think that I will have such a good sleep in a new place.' she was impressed.

But the sound of alarm was still not off. Helplessly she had to cover her ears with pillows until the alarm turned off.

After an few attempts when she was finally having sleep a knock on the door broke her sleep into pieces.

"Mai Yuerui, are you awake? I brought your breakfast." Xianwang asked from outside.

Yuerui looked at her phone and saw the time at 7.00.

'Aghhh... This early?'

She pulled herself up unwillingly and sat on the bed.

"I am awake."

Xianwang opened the door and entered with a tray of food.

"I brought you.... Huh! You just woke up?" Xianwang asked with surprised expression.

"Mmmm..." Yuerui nodded as she rubbed her sleepy eye. 

It was obvious that she was still not sober. She nodded with her eyes closed but she still wore her round glasses which made her look cute.

Xianwang couldn't help but smile.

"Then let me help you to freshen up and then have breakfast." He said.

After Xianwang helped Yuerui to go to the bathroom he returned to the bed and arranged her breakfast.

After freshen up Yuerui came out of the bathroom and saw Xianwang arranging food for her.

He had already taken shower and was wearing a pair of trousers and t-shirt. His hair was still damp and was falling on his

forehead. His sleeves were rolled up exposing his musculine arms that were reflecting the bright sunrays.

"What an interesting view to start the day! Ning tan would be so jealous." Yuerui murmured in low voice.

"You are finished?" Xianwang asked as he helped her to return to the bed.

Xianwang has the habit of eating food in table. But today he wanted to have breakfast with his to be wife. So he put aside his habit and decided to join her.

----

The time they were eating the room was silent. None of them said anything.

Xianwang eat his food with a calm an elegant composure.

On the other hand, one question was making noise in Yuerui's mind.

 "Do you always eat breakfast during this time?" She finally asked.

"Hmm..." Xianwang nodded and continued to eat.

"Huh! This early!" She blurted out.

Xianwang looked at her with surprised expression.

Isn't it normal to eat early so that you won't come late at the office?


"No... I mean it's only 7. There's still time for office." Yuerui answered meekily.

"Do you want me to stay?" Xianwang asked in seductive voice.

"No... No... I was just wondering if it's your daily schedule." 

Xianwang smiled and took a bite of sandwich.

"After breakfast I will have to get ready and leave by 7.30" he said softly.

'What! This early? But if you go out by this time then you must reach before 9. I was right. He waits outside of the office to reach 9 and makes his dramatic grand entry at 9.00 on the clock.' Yuerui thought in her tiny mind.

Though Yuerui didn't say anything but her expression said it all that she was surprised.

Xianwang was enjoying her expressions which changes in every seconds.

"Then when do you go out for office?" He suddenly asked.

"Me?" 

Yuerui went back to her flashbacks where everyday she wakes up at 8 and sometimes even more late and a tornado runs in her apartment. She hurries up to put on her clothes, stuffs her mouth with whatever food she finds in front of her and runs the hell out for office. And finally somehow manages to reach only a few seconds before 9.

This is what happens when you house is near your workplace.

Sometimes she happens to see Xianwang's car coming from a far and runs with all her strength to reach before him.

"Mai Yuerui" Xianwang called her a few time to pull her out of her thoughts.

"Yes..."

"What are you thinking?"

"Me... Nothing... Yeah so what was I saying? Oh... Yes... I somehow manage to come before 9." She said with a awkward smile.

"Oh..." Xianwang also replied with an awkward smile.

After breakfast Xianwang helped her to lean on the pillow and prepared to leave.

"W... Wait." Yuerui suddenly remembered the thing she thought the previous day.

"Do you need anything?" Xianwang asked.

"Did you still have the suit you wore yesterday?"

Xianwang was a little surprised.

"Umm... Yes... I was about to put it in the laundry."

"Don't put it." Yuerui got excited.

"Why?"

"Can you handle extra attention?" Yuerui asked her back.

Xianwang gave a smirk and put her hand on his pocket.

"My lady, you may not notice. But I always get extra attention." He said with pride as he flew his hair in the air.

'O... I was wrong.... He can handle.' Yuerui gawked in her mind.

"Okay whatever... You have to put on the suit you wore yesterday." Yuerui replied.

"What? Who does that?" Xianwang was shocked.

"You will do that"

"Why? Hell no."

"Do you want us to be the the topic of people's gossip?"

"Umm.. yes..."

"Then put them on." Yuerui said with a straight face.

"What does that have to do with us?" Xianwang was still oblivious.

"You don't know what that means?" Yuerui asked.

"Umm... No..."

Yuerui slapped her forehead.

'Oh... Boy...' and she sighed.

'How can I explain this to him now?'

Being an introvert it was awkward for her to tell Xianwang that it means spending the night together.

"It means... You know .. when you go somewhere and you don't bring your clothes with you then what do you do? You have to wear the same clothes. Like me... See.. I am still wearing the same clothes I was wearing yesterday." Yuerui tried to explain.

"Yes.... Come to think of it you are nasty. Please call for someone to wash my bed when you return to your house." Xianwang bluntly replied.

'What I am trying to say... And what he is thinking?' Yuerui faceslapped.

"Okay... I will do that. Now go and wear what you wore yesterday." She commanded him with strict voice.

"But you didn't say why?" Xianwang asked with innocent face.

"You will know when you go to office." Yuerui said and covered her face with the blanket.

"Okay... I will not disturb you anymore and go to office. Good bye... Don't miss me." Saying so he gave her a flying kiss and left.

--------

In the office,

As usual the female employees are making big crowd in their respective buildings to see the CEO. On his way to the office he even spotted a few reporters hiding.

"Life is gonna be hectic for a while." He said to himself.

As he got out of his car all the department heads that were gathered to greet him were shocked to the core.

'The CEO is wearing the same suit! Does that mean?'

Xianwang always welcomes the stares that people gave him either good or bad. But today they were like giving him scandalous stares.

'What the h....' 

He moved forward and went next to Si ying. But to his shocking surprise Si ying screamed in front of everyone," You are wearing yesterday's suit! Don't tell me!"

But Si ying immediately remembered that he just spilled it in front of everyone. So he immediately closed his mouth with his hands and saw Han Yefang standing behind Xianwang as he just came out of his car.

Afraid of his best friend? Neh.... He is not as scary as the frozen cold glares that Han Yefang was giving.

Xianwang was surprised by the shocking expression of his friend and stopped in his spot.

He felt a little awkward by his sorrounding.

He cleared his throat and went straight to his office.

---------

As soon as he entered his office he called for Si ying. Si ying came within a minute but with Han Yefang.

"Si yin.... Oh... Mr. Han, Good morning" Xianwang said.

"Good morning. I was wondering if you could tell me how Yuerui is doing." Han Yefang came straight to the point.

"Oh... She is fine."

"I would like to see her." Han Yefang replied without thinking anything.

"No, you can't." Xianwang replied immediately.

"Why?" Yefang frowned.

"Because...." Xianwang thought for a while.

"Because I don't know where she is." 

"Really? But your clothes don't say that." Han Yefang said as he raised his left eyebrow.

Xianwang didn't understand what Yefang meant. But he can't let that know him.

He instead decided to go with the flow.

He put both his hands on his pocket and replied, "If you can see that then why did you ask?"

Han Yefang didn't say anything for a few seconds. Then suddenly a smile appeared on his handsome face.

"Ah... Mai Yuerui." He looked outside the glass wall.

"Sorry. I should have realized it. You carry on. I will find her on my own." Han Yefang turned to leave when Xingtian entered.

"Wo... Brother... I wonder what was..." At first Xingtian didn't notice Han Yefang. But when she saw him she shut her mouth.

"Oh.. CEO Han. Good morning. Nice to see you." She greeted politely.

Han Yefang nodded in reply and continued his motion.

"Brother, here's the plan for our upcoming workshop. This year's theme of campfire."

Han Yefang stopped in his motion when he heard her.

He turned backwards and said, "Workshop?"

"Yes. Every year our employees go for workshop at different places to enlighten their imagination. This year we are going to a Forest Park for campfire." She explained.

Xianwang wanted to shut his sister up. But before he could say anything Xingtian blurted out everything.

Han Yefang thought for a second and said, "If you don't mind, can my team also do the workshop with your employees?"

"Umm..." Xianwang tried to barge in.

But again his sister beat him and replied

cordially, "Yes. Of course you can."

"Thank you." Han Yefang nodded to Xingtian.

He gave a glance at Xianwang and left.

"What the hell, Xingtian!" Xianwang yelled at his sister as soon as Han Yefang left.

"Oh my..." Xingtian got startled. But gathered her courage and fright back, "What!"

"I gave you so many signals. But you! You little brat, ignored me and blurted out everything to him. Tell me, are you eyeing on this guy now? Then let me tell you this is a hard nut to crack...."

Xingtian immediately shut his brothers mouth with her hands and murmured to his ears.

"What the hell are you talking about? Brother Si ying is here. And no I have no interest on that lifeless statue."

"Ah... Okay." Xianwang shut up immediately.

"Then why did you let him join us?"

"He asked me politely. And how can I say no on his face when he is our partner?" Xingtian replied.

"But hey... You didn't appreciate you little sister who made arrangements for you to date." Xingtian said with mischievous smile.

"Date? Who is dating?" Xianwang tried to deny.

"Don't act innocent, bro. We all know what you are doing. You don't know how mom and dad were dancing tomorrow. It's our plan to arrange the workshop on a campfire so that you two can spend some time and finally get yourself married."

"Don't worry about that. I will definitely get married." Xianwang said with pride.

"Whoa... I wonder what magic Little cat casted on you?" Xingtian wondered.

"Little cat?" Xianwang asked in confusion.

"You don't even know that your girlfriend's nickname is Little cat here?"

"Of course I know." Xianwang pretended.

"So you are admitting. I hope you two spend a good quality time last night."

"How can she?" Xianwang looked at his clothes and finally understood what people actually meant with those looks.

He tried to conceal his smile and kicked his sister out of his office.
