"Wh.. what are you doing?!" Ji Yanli  whispered in a mosquito voice that was hard to hear with naked ears unless someone had a supernatural hearing. She had the sudden urge to kick at his family jewels but waited to see what he was up to.

'If he dares to do something outrageous,  I swear he will regret it for the rest of his life!' Ji Yanli clenched her right hand and made it into a fist, it was waiting to fall on him in a given moment at her command. 

Wang Haixiao's breath fell on her lips as she saw his pupils changed while his focus dropped on her fiery red lips.

"Yanli… I want something."

"What?... " Her breath became irregular when she heard him saying. But it was due to her anger. 

Wang Haixiao didn't detect the hidden danger in her voice. Also watching his face from so close made her want to tear a bite out from his cheek. 

"Tell me first. Will you give me or not?!" After saying that he reduced their distance even more. 

Ji Yanli smiled as she let him do whatever he wanted. Also he moved his hands and placed her hands beside her head and clutched them tightly. Only then the man saw her right hand was made into a fist.

"Wang Haixiao, you… " Ji Yanli wanted to scold him but no words came from her lips. Her voice even had a threatening tone to let her go. She didn't notice she could've moved away if she wanted yet she didn't even struggle for once.

Then suddenly Ji Yanli reversed her position and kabedoned him. She pinned his body on the seat and clenched his hands' tights as she pressed them backward. 

Wang Haixiao felt this position was too ambitious. Also the soft feeling on his chest made him blush but Ji Yanli was having none of it.

"First you found someone to scare me and now you have the audacity to demand something from me?! Who do you think you are?! Huh?!" The woman who was driven to the brink of her anger spat each word at his face. In between some very tiny drops of liquid flew at his face from her mouth. At that Wang Haixiao flinched.

"Who am I? Your friend!"

Wang Haixiao moved very close to her as he told her. He began to move his head down. 

Ji Yanli saw him in her hawk-like gaze. Then abruptly he wiped his face at her upper arm; on the fabric of her dress. 

"Haixiao! Do you want to die? You nasty pervert!"

"But you threw bacteria on my face. You know the human mouth is filled with so many..."

"Don't start to talk nonsense again. Or I will send you to jail." Ji Yanli told him sternly but then she saw some people were coming to their area. They might be coming for their car.

"I want… to eat the hotpot you made several months ago at Sheng Ruming's birthday." When Ji Yanli heard it, her eyes opened widely as she turned at his face. 

"Huh?! Hotpot?" Ji Yanli felt very irritated when she asked to confirm it.

"Hmm. Hotpot. I want to eat the same thing which you made back then. If you don't, I won't let you go." After saying he tightened his grips further on her hands. "I don't have any problem. We can stay like this here the whole night…"

"Don't joke around." Ji Yanli wanted to break away but he locked her waist and dragged her towards him.

"If you don't agree, then…" Wang Haixiao abruptly raised his phone with his left hand at them while tightening his grip on her waist and the next second, took some pictures of them in that position. 

Ji Yanli was too slow to react to that. "If you don't agree, I will post these pictures on social media." Wang Haixiao told her in a sly tone as if he had won the war against her.

Ji Yanli shrugged at his threats. "Do it then. I don't have any problem. It's normal for me  to play around with some boys before I get married." She slowly approached his right side and whispered.

"I also have some pictures of you crying your heart out at the marriage of your first crush. You were so badly drunk that time… Offf! Just thinking about that time gives me pure bliss." Ji Yanli wanted to tease him more but his face cracked at the mention of that time. 

"I just wanted to eat something. And… isn't it normal for me to play a prank on you? You even did a similar prank on me four months ago; in our annual get together an event at the club." Wang Haixiao's mood became sad as he loosened his right hand's grip and moved aside. 

Then Ji Yanli soothed her dress and sat on the empty place beside him.

"Forget it then. I was foolish to think that you will cook something for me if I request you. You will only make something for Sheng Ruming or their family in this lifetime…" Wang Haixiao didn't talk more as he took his phone and deleted every photo of her from there; even the previous ones. 

Ji Yanli was greatly irritated when he did that in front of her. After that, he went to the front, unlocked the car door and went out. Without saying anything to her, he started to go towards the road opposite the office building.

Ji Yanli crossed her arms and remained seated in the back seat. After some minutes, she clicked her tongue and became annoyed as she felt guilty for no reason.

'He messed with my mind again…' 

Abruptly Ji Yanli went to the driver's seat and picked her phone from the ground. She placed it in her bag and started to drive the car ahead. In a few seconds she came beside Wang Haixiao and began to drive the car slowly alongside him.

"Okay."

"Okay what?!" At the sudden sound, he turned towards the car and asked back. Now it was his turn to act angry.

"I, I will make a hotpot for you. Just this time. Don't even think of this again." Ji Yanli felt a lump in her throat when she said that. 'Such a soft-hearted woman I am!' She thought.

"Promise?" Wang Haixiao asked. His tone was full of doubt. Ji Yanli wanted to drive the car on his body when he made that kind of face and asked her back.

Wang Haixiao stopped walking and waited for her confirmation.

"Promise…" 

Wang Haixiao wanted to say more but he didn't expect she would agree so easily. Also he scared her earlier so it was out of the question. 

But he really wanted to relax while enjoying his favourite food. It had been many days since he had a proper meal. There were many restaurants in the city but he liked her homemade hotpot that day.

After Ji Yanli agreed he felt his frustration melting away. Ji Yanli stopped the car for him and opened the car door. 

After that she moved from her seat and went to sit on the front passenger seat.

After Wang Haixiao sat down on the driver's seat, Ji Yanli stared at his face for a very long time and he assumed she would go back on her words.

"Don't even think about going back on your words. A true man always keeps his words …" Wang Haixiao told her as he pointed his forefinger at her nose. When she heard him, she took her bag and swung at him again.

"You trash! I'm a woman. Drive the car to my apartment." Ji Yanli glared at him and the next second she flipped her hair backwards. Wang Haixiao happily drove the car towards the main road ahead. 

"You won't go to your home today?..." When he saw her still glaring, he stopped talking.

"Do you want to eat with my parents?!"

"Nope."He hurriedly shook his head. 

After some moments passed, she turned towards him.

"I don't have enough ingredients to make hotpot. Let's go to the supermarket."

"Okay." After cheerfully replying to her, he changed his route and started to drive to the supermarket at full speed.

Ding~

Suddenly Wang Haixiao's phone received a notification. When the next traffic light  showed red-light, he stopped the car and took out his phone.

"Assistant Wang, the work is done." Wang Haixiao saw the massage and saw a video below it. He silenced his phone's volume and turned on the video. Then, Ji Yanli was looking outside of the car.

There he saw the whole incident regarding Ji Yanli being scared stiff. It was clearly recorded. He chuckled lightly at that. 

"Good job." He typed in his phone and next he sent the man 5000 cash with a 999 tip. 

"It's greenlight." Ji Yanli reminded him as she saw he was poking at his phone's display. Also then he heard several cars honking at them. 

"Oh!" He hurriedly grabbed the steering wheel and drove ahead.

After twenty minutes, they stopped before the supermarket and went straight to the food section. 

Wang Haixiao took two big trolls and gave one to her. He walked ahead and picked the most expensive ingredients. Ji Yanli just stood aside and followed his movements.

When he finished picking, they went to the cash counter to check out. Only then she noticed he brought 10 kgs of meat of various flavors and categories. The cashier appeared surprised at the amount of food they bought.
