"You. ....", Lie Ruge stammered in between her words. She didn't know how to defend herself since all he has just said was the undeniable truth.
"Why are you stuttering? If you are confused about which of our beds will be comfortable for our vigorous bed activities, how about I help you in choosing it? Although I haven't stepped my feet inside your Mansion before but I can assure you that my bed is not only flexible but also very strong and large that it can withstand any amount of pressure, so how about I take you to my Mansion for the night?", Yi Lan asked staring at her forgetting that he was walking towards the entrance of the club.
"Watch out", Lie Ruge tried to warn Yi Lan about the entrance of the door ahead but it was too late. When he turned around to look at what she was talking about, he felt that someone's hand was against his forehead. He realized that Lie Ruge had used her right hand to prevent him from bumping his forehead against the tiled wall. Instead of hitting his head against the wall, his head bumped into her hand which serves as a protection while her hand received the impact of the hit against the wall.
"What a relief, you did not hit your handsome face against the wall", Lie Ruge said heaving a sigh of relief. She was worried that his handsome face was going to get injured but it was such a relief she was able to prevent that from happening on time. When Yi Lan saw what she has just done, he gently dropped her on her feet. The place she bumped against the wall was bruised due to the impact of the hit.
"Silly you. Why did you do that Pretty? What is the big deal in hitting my forehead against the wall? What if your wrist had got broken due to the hit, what would you have done? If you do this next time I will really get mad at you Ok?", Yi Lan said caressing her right hand while blow air on it. Before they left the club, Fei Yan had already went out to bring the car to the front of the club for them.
"I didn't have time to think too much about it. All I was after was to prevent your handsome face from getting injured and I did. It is as simple as that and my hand is alright. I can't fathom what would have become of your face had you bumped it into the wall earlier so you don't have to look so worried. This little hit against the wall is nothing compare to those I received in the Academy", Lie Ruge said heading to where Fei Yan was already waiting for them.
"But I don't want you to put yourself at risk ever again because of me alright? ", Yi Lan said with a tone of finality in his voice. He opened the car's door for her to enter. Fei Yan immediately took the initiative to zoom off when his Boss had entered into the car.
"If I don't take risk for you, who will do it? You don't expect me to fold my hands and watch you take risk for the both of us right? If I decide to do such a thing, that makes me a very bad person and truth be told I am not afraid of taking risk so I don't think it is the right thing for me to do", Lie Ruge said.
"I know you have taken a lot of risk all your life, but I want to lift this particular burden off your shoulders. You are already so perfect as it is, that it is difficult to find anything to do for you or will you deny me this my sincere request?", Yi Lan asked staring directly into her eyes. Lie Ruge wanted to argue further but she gave up the idea when she saw how sincere Yi Lan was.
"Ok, I won't argue with you anymore on that. It's up to you to decide alright? But I'm not promising you anything", Lie Ruge said with a tone of finality. Yi Lan who thought that their argument would last for another thirty minutes was surprised she gave in to his wishes.
"Sure at least you have given me your consent on that so I won't have to worry about the consequences of intervening on issues that concerns you. Pretty, if I'm not wrong I heard you mention something about Academy. Which Academy are you talking about? When I did a background check on you berfore our first meeting in the restuarant, there was no information that showed that you attended any Academy so how come it was not written on your database?", Yi Lan asked curiously. After her high school education, no information was written on the university she attended although she did attend one. The most weird thing was that no information was inputted about her for four years. No one knew where she was or what she did in those four years, it was as if she did not exist in those four years so he was curious to know what actually happened to her then.
"Can we talk about that topic some other time. It is one of the most boring and heart-wrenching story of my life. I'm quite exhausted right now, you can ask me the question some other time, alright? Let's just remain in this position until we reach our destination hmmm", Lie Ruge asked looking at Yi Lan's disappointed expression. She wrapped her hands around Yi Lan's body while resting her head on his chest.
"It alright if you don't feel like saying it", Yi Lan said with a gloomy look. Lie Ruge who found Yi Lan's embrace very warm slowly slept off in Yi Lan's embrace. After Lie Ruge fell asleep, Yi Lan instructed Fei Yan to drive the car slowly and carefully. Yi Lan had already told him to head to his Mansion and when they arrived at his Mansion, Lie Ruge was still sound asleep so without wasting much time, he carried her gently to his bedroom. On his way, he signalled all his servants to keep quiet so that they would not wake her up. He quickly dismissed them for the night. When he got to his bedroom, he placed her gently on the bed. The instant he placed her on the bed, Lie Ruge open her eyes.
"You are awake", Yi Lan said.
