"You mean someone he feared," he corrected her.

Lu Mengjie sighed. It was not like they were going to find out all at once who that person was. They were miles away from the mainland. Besides, if Bai Jingye has planted a spy in his grandfather\'s place, then he would find out about it sooner or later.

"There\'s no point in racking our brains. Let\'s just get some rest already." She moved to her side of the bed and lied down there.

As usual, after locking the door, Bai Jingye went to the sofa.

"I think you should sleep here." Her invitation startled him.

She patted the space beside her. "Besides, the bed is big enough for the both of us." She placed a pillow, using it as a divider. "There."

"It\'s fine." If he overstepped his boundaries, it would be dangerous for the both of them so he would rather tolerate sleeping on the couch. That was the safest choice for the both of them.

She raised a brow when he rejected her offer. "Well, don\'t say that I haven\'t offered you once you wake up with an aching body."

"I guess, I will have to bring my own sleeping bag here tomorrow," he replied with a chuckle.

"Good idea!"

…

The next day, as promised, Lu Mengjie was called to Bai Jingye\'s study just so he could introduce her new bodyguard.

Upon entering the room, she saw another tall man, around the same height as Yong Liwei, sitting on a couch comfortably. No matter how she looked at him, he had a majestic air around him, treating the couch as his throne.

The man had striking blonde hair. When he turned to look at her, she felt her heart jump the moment their eyes met. She hadn\'t realized that green could be such a hot fire until she saw those eyes. His stare was piercing through her as if he was looking directly into her soul. Just like what Bai Jingye told last night, his Asian gene was dominant except for his hair and eye color. He had an ethereal beauty that went on par with Yong Liwei\'s heaven-hell inbred beauty. Aside from that, he resembled someone she knew...

The important question right now was… why the hell was her heart racing at such an insane pace? Has she gone crazy? She couldn\'t just fall in love at first sight with ANOTHER man! She hasn\'t even moved on yet from that bastard Yong Liwei!

"Mengjie, meet Han Yizhou. From now on, he will be in charge of your safety."

Han Yizhou…?

She furrowed her brows in confusion. "Are you perhaps related to Han Xukun?" She asked Bai Jingye, knowing that the man on the sofa was not fluent in their language.

"Boku wa kare no ani."

Lu Mengjie shot her head back at the man, his melodic voice grabbing her attention back to him. His voice… Even if it sounded deeper, there was something in it that attracted her. She found the huskiness a bit similar too with someone she knew.

It may not be obvious but she was actually a very observant person. She could recall the simplest thing from a person\'s features.

Han Yizhou cleared his throat and continued, this time, he spoke the common language so fluently. "I am his older brother."

Doubt appeared in her head which made her start approaching the guy. To the man\'s surprise, Lu Mengjie bent down to his level and took a closer look at his face. She even went as far as to sniff the suit he was wearing.

"E-excuse me?" The man said, uncomfortably.

"Mengjie, what\'s wrong?" Bai Jingye asked in confusion.

"He smells so good." Like him.

Bai Jingye: "..."

Han Yizhou: "..."

A small smirk appeared on the woman\'s face. "You just understood me, didn\'t you?"

The man in question averted his beautiful green eyes. It was as if he just had realized what the woman was trying to play on him. 

Lu Mengjie reached out and held the man by his necktie, pulling him close to him. Their faces were only inches apart. "Do you think you can deceive me? You can change your face but your body, your scent, I know them all so well. Yong Liwei."

Bai Jingye\'s eyes went wide in surprise as he looked at the couple in front of him.

"Ms, what are you saying? I cannot understand you," the man denied as he returned his gaze at her, looking all confused.

A sinister smile appeared on her lips. "Does it still hurt, Mr. Yong?" She rested her knee on his seat, in between his legs, which made the man instinctively place his hand on his manhood to protect it.

He cast his narrowed eyes back at her. He could feel her warm breath against his face. Their lips were so close that one push from someone would make them kiss. Despite the closeness, he looked unfazed. "I\'m surprised."

"No, I think I should be the one saying that. If you think you can deceive me twice, think again, asshole." She finally leaned back and was about to get off from him but was suddenly halted when she felt a hand place from behind.

"Get our dirty hands off me, Yong Liwei." After the ruthless words he spat at her the other night, she wasn\'t going to allow him to play with her feelings again. She was puzzled. Why was this man here after he had threatened her the other night?

Yong Liwei smiled. "Are you still angry at me?"

Her frown went deep. What was this guy trying to play? He looked so different from that other night. More like… he reverted to how he was treating her back then, the night they first shared. Gentle, caring Yong Liwei. The look in his eyes was different. There was light in them, a fire that burnt. She could see her own reflection against his dark orbs.

"Release me." She didn\'t want to fall for whatever trick he was trying to play.

"Have you forgotten what I said? The next time we meet, it will be the last," he reminded but this time, it didn\'t sound like a threat at all. 

She rolled her eyes. "Yeah, right. As if that happened at the airport."

His chest revibrated when he chuckled. "I miscalculated things. Even now." He released her back and instead, placed his hand on her cheek. "But I mean what I said. It will be the last." He was staring at her so gently, his eyes filled with warmth.

She felt her heart skip a beat. Her face began to heat up. For some reason, she couldn\'t help but think of what he just said. Was he trying to say that… the next time they would meet would be the last because he would stay by her side the whole time?

No, that can\'t be. She didn\'t want to hope. Not after the pain he gave her.

Lu Mengjie slapped his hand away, this time, finally escaping from him. "Just what are you trying to play, Yong Liwei? And also Han Yizhou?" She scoffed at the name. "Han Xukun only has one brother who is younger than him. You can\'t fool me twice."

"But I am not." He rested his back comfortably while staring at her. "What I\'ve said back then is the truth. I may have tried to deceive you once but I\'m not going to do that again."

"I don\'t believe you," she refuted.

"Then don\'t." This time, he took off his blond wig then the hyper-realistic silicone face mask, finally exposing his real face to her. He ran his fingers through his hair. This simple gesture somehow made Lu Mengjie unconsciously gulp. The man was looking so hot and sexy especially with that fake green eyes of his. Everything he did was filled with elegance.

"Just why are you here right now, Yong Liwei?" She tore her gaze from the man. If she stared at him any longer, she feared that she might end up falling for his trap again. She looked at Bai Jingye, "did you know this?"

The man in question cast his eyes at the man sitting on the sofa. A sigh was heard from Bai Jingye. He began massaging the bridge of his nose. "Blame him. Not me."

It was obvious that both men were not expecting that something like this would happen. They underestimated the pregnant woman\'s sharp instincts and observation skills.

She clenched her fists upon realizing that the two men seemed to know each other. She felt divided. She didn\'t know what to believe anymore. She once trusted Yong Liwei but he betrayed her. Now, her trust for the other man was wavering.

Bai Jingye stood up and said, "I think you two need to talk things out." He turned to Yong Liwei and gave him a warning, "you need to tell her everything, Mr. Han. If she comes out crying, I\'m not going to hold back anymore."
