"But brother, none of that matters, there is one thing they all hate in the family..." she put him in suspense for a while, he raised his brows, wondering what that thing might be that makes it seem so forbidden.

"That is L.I.E.S, the moment you tell the slightest lie, you are already disqualified before you even have a chance," her voice totally stressed how serious the situation is but she stopped when she heard his brake screech.

His eyes went round and his heart sank...LIES, he just did the forbidden back there.

"Brother, are you okay? I am sorry I didn't tell you this before but you should probably tell Yu Yan about your identity as the chairman of Han Chen Corporation and as a soldier, she once said she doesn't want to get married to someone she will have to worry about because she wouldn't be able to be at peace so the earlier you solve that issue, the better, brother...are you there?"

His words hung at his throat, the situation is just too unfavourable, he has already disqualified himself in many ways before meeting them.

"I will think about it-" he ended the call straightaway then drove back at the highest speed he could drive at.

He soon got to the mansion in no time, he immediately ran inside, he really wants to just coop himself somewhere to cry but he wants to be in her embrace more, he really regretted volunteering to drop her luggage.

He couldn't see her in sight when he entered so he started looking for her starting from her bedroom to the kitchen not knowing that he put her in a dilemma by packing everything including her underwears.

She freaked out seeing her drawers emptied out of embarrassment, she was in her bathrobe and she really needed something comfy to wear, the thought of him seeing everything made it even more awkward so having no other choice, she decided to find something to wear in his closet.

{Does he really want me to leave that bad?} she couldn't help thinking that way.

He burst into his room in search of her then went straight to his walk-in closet not knowing she is there she turned around to leave while buttoning up the large white shirt reaching up to her thigh when both of them collided head-on, she moved her head back in pain but he just stood still, staring into her eyes.

Her wet dripping hair slicked on her shoulder and her bare face made him so captivated that he couldn't take his eyes off her, just when he was about to lower his eyes, she removed her hand from the button then held his face with both hands.

"Don't look down!" she yelled, squeezing his cheeks.

She let go of his face then she swiftly turned around to button up quickly, his heart raced really fast looking at her figure from behind, the short shirt might not be body tight but it still accentuated her figure, he really wished to wrap his arms around her thin waist so he waited, just until she buttons up to her chest.

The moment her hand touched the third to last button, he rushed towards her then wrapped his hand around her waist tightly, her breath hitched feeling his arms around her waist.

The tension he makes her feel made her heart violently ram against her chest, her lashes fluttered to get her composure, she could tell that something probably happened, she left the button then touched his hand as she unwrapped it from her waist then she turned to face him.

She placed one hand on the side of his face.

"Did something happen?" she asked with a concerned look in her eyes.

"Hmm," he hummed, she smiled faintly then held his hands tightly as she pulled him back to the bedroom, his sulky face that looked like he is about to tear up made her want to hug him more but she is already feeling sleepy.

She let go of his hand to lie on his bed, he seemed confused even when she tapped the bed, signalling him to lie next to her, he gulped down his non-existent saliva as his eyes fell on her flawless smooth legs.

If he doesn't know better then he would have thought she is trying to seduce him.

It didn't matter, as long as she wants him next to her then he will gladly oblige.

She could tell that he is thinking something different from what she has in mind so the moment he lied on the bed, she moved up to him. She wrapped her arms around his neck then laid her head on his.

"This way, we can hug longer," she remarked, at that moment, he exhaled deeply, he didn't know if he should be happy she wasn't planning on doing what he was thinking or he should be sad but anyways, he is getting what he wanted

"Tell me what happened," she asked in a soft yet warm voice, he tightened his arms around her waist.

"I met your mom and dad," he disclosed with his eyes shut tight but she jolted up, seating on the bed so he also sat up on the bed.

"When, how, why?"

"I met them in the elevator but I didn't know they were your parents so when I entered your apartment, I thought they had broken into your house so I..." the words hung in his throat.

"You..." 

"I choked your dad," he completed in a rush with his eyes shut, she gasped, placing her hands over her mouth.

"Are you crazy, how could you choke my dad," she scolded with a hit to his chest, the hit was quite strong but he took it in without wincing.

"I didn't they were the one not to talk of being your parents so I lied to them that your house was flooded so you had me bring the luggage back to your apartment after it was repaired," 

He continued, out of reflex, she hit him harder on the chest.

"You already ruined everything," she complained but when she noticed him clutching the spot she hit, she immediately placed her hand on his chest.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to hit you hard,"

He held her hand in between his.

"I know I ruined it but I really didn't intend to, I was just too nervous," he looked really guilty so much that he couldn't even look her in the eyes, she feels pity for him but knowing her parents, they won't like that he lied to them.

She kneeled on the bed then she leaned her body forward and wrapped her arms around his neck.

"It's alright, as long as I want to be with you then my dad will surely concede and once he does, my brothers will surely follow suit, as for my mother...we will find a way," she consoled but she didn't expect him to be this sorry, he looks like he is almost crying.

He remembered what Jia Yu said about Yu Yan not wanting to marry someone she has to worry about, he really needs to tell her the truth.

He pulled her back gently then he pulled her back to sit.

"I have also been hiding something from you,"

She squinted her eyes, telling him to spill it fast.

"I am actually the chairman of Han Corporation," he confessed.

Her face remained blank, he waited to see her reaction but she didn't show any so he raised his brows.

"Why aren't you saying anything?"

"I waited so long thinking you were never going to tell me the truth," she responded with her lips turned up, he narrowed his gaze trying to understand what she means then it struck his mind that she already knew about it.

"You...."

"Do you think we are dumb, first I saw you at the company owned by Jia Yu's cousin but you said you were there to seek a job, why would you seek a job at your cousin's company," she had a smug smile on her face that totally wrecked his mind, so she knew about it all along and she pretended like she didn't know.

"You said first, is there another reason,"

"After I confessed to you, I heard rumors of Chen corporation losing its subsidiaries, could that have been a coincidence?"

She really restrained herself from laughing looking at his expression.

"I am more impressed that Jia Yu kept this a secret for so long, she is normally a blabbermouth but now everyone in the friend group knows except Jia Yu,"

He couldn't help but wonder if she already knows about his position in the military but he wanted to sound her out first.

"So you are not angry?"

"I am but I don't want to dwell on it, as long as I don't have to worry about you then whatever you do is fine,"

"Why?"
