She went to see Eric and told him that there was a friend outside who wanted to congratulate her but doesn't have an invitation so she cannot get in. She assumed it was a woman since she doesn't have a lot of male friends back in Beijing. Eric told her to send someone and let her in but Ji An insisted that she will see her and take her in. Eric nodded at her in agreement and told her to make it quick as there's still a lot of guests to entertain and wanted to see them and to congratulate them.
Outside, she asked the guard where the woman is. The one who was looking for her. The guard pointed her to the car parked not far from the entrance. She walked towards it and the window slid down. She doesn't recognise the woman, how is she her friend and how did she know her?
The woman asked her to get in first and sit in the car with her as there was something important she has to tell her.
Judging by her looks, she looked like from a rich family making Ji An not to doubt her. It was probably from her mum. Maybe she's here to deliver a message or a gift. She got in and after a minute of being inside the car, a bodyguard opened the door and sat next to her that took her by surprise as she didn't expect it, maybe the woman thought she will cause a ruckus and a bodyguard was needed. After a few more seconds, the woman got out and another bodyguard sat next to her making her nervous and anxious.
"Who are you? What is going on? I want to get out right now!." One can sense that she was scared but the people inside the car ignored her completely and the driver drove off. She was trying to stay calm as this is not the time to panic, she must stay focused and survive the kidnapping scene she was into. "Where are you taking me?" Her voice was a little shaky, the bodyguards didn't reply to her and ignored her once more.
After being in the car, feeling nervous and anxious for about thirty minutes, the car stopped. The bodyguards got out and assisted her to get out of the car. It's a hotel and it seems familiar but she didn't pay much attention to the familiarity of the hotel, her mind was busy thinking who was the person behind this and want to see her. She hasn't given up on the thought that her mum was probably inside wanting to see her. But she can't understand why it has to be done this way. However, she still followed the two bodyguards. The room door was open and she went in.
The room was empty, that's what she thought anyway. As she walked in, she heard the water had been turned off and she approached the door where the sound was coming from, suddenly the bathroom door opened and she saw Cheng Ze, water dripping from his hair unto his body, he just finished his shower and he only has a towel covering the lower part of his body. She has never seen his body before, well at least that's what she thought. She suddenly went blank and stared at the gorgeous sight until Cheng Ze spoke waking her up from her fascination. "Do you like what you see?" He has a seductive smile on his face.
Ji An walked to the window overlooking the House of Parliament and The Big Ben. Earlier he was in her thoughts, was he here to actually stop her wedding? But why he didn't show up in the church? How did he find out it's her wedding day? She has so many questions to ask him but she thought it was best to keep them to herself as they are all useless now. All she wants to know is why is she here and what does he want from her?
"You look beautiful in your wedding dress." He sighed, "Pity it's not me you're marrying." And walked past Ji An to get his clothes.
But before he got them Ji An spoke. "So it is you who wanted to see me? What do you want?" She tried to sound nonchalant and conceal her true feelings for him.
"You! I...." he turned around without collecting his clothes and walked towards her slowly. "Want.." he walked more until Ji An was leaning on the wall. "You..." finally there was a little gap between them.
He still doesn't have his clothes on and only has the towel around his waist. Ji An didn't show any attraction to him and simply replied with, "I'm a married woman now. You shouldn't do this."
"Do I look like I care?" He smirked at her seductively, "To be honest with you, I don't really care! Married or not you are my woman!" He brushed her cheeks gently with his fingers.
Her eyes were fierce, "Why are you so arrogant? What makes you think that I want to be your woman and betray my husband?" She said furiously with creased on her brows.
He lifted her chin slowly, "Because you belong to me and me alone!" He kissed her suddenly but gently. She seemed to accept his kiss so he let her lips go for a moment, "I have so many questions to ask you," his voice was incredibly seductive to her, "But I have more things in my head that I want to do with you." He kissed her once more indulging her and making Ji An want him the way he wanted her.
Ji An didn't object to his action and seemed to be enjoying it until she got reminded of Eric's face. She suddenly pushed Cheng Ze gently and spoke softly, "You should stop! This is not right. I have to go back to my husband. He is waiting for me and probably worried about me." Though she enjoyed their little kiss, she shouldn't let herself let it go further, Eric must be looking for her and it's not right to be with another man on her wedding night other than her husband.
"Do you really think I care about your husband right now? Do you think I care about how he feels or what he feels? Divorce him and marry me!"
Ji An moved away from him. "Why are you so selfish? There is nothing between us, why are you behaving like this?"
"Of course there is." He smiled as he recalled how he had her in that exact room, in the same bed, "I had you once and—"
"So now you know! Did you remember it just now? Do you think I enjoyed it? You enjoyed yourself you selfish bastard!" She pushed him and gave him a slap. "You forced yourself on me. You raped me! I hate you!" Her voice was on top of her lungs and she instantly becomes furious.
'What is she talking about?' Cheng Ze looked confused, but he couldn't ask her what on earth she was talking about. He was trying to recall things that had happened in the past. There was nothing like that happened. As far as he remembered it, she enjoyed it very much, though she was drugged, she really enjoyed every part of it. 'When did I forced myself to her?'
He cannot take it anymore and he must ask her, "Ji An stop! What are you talking about?"
With her arms crossed, she stared at him with fierce eyes, "So now you will play it like this? Okay! Remember the night you came home drunk with your "BABE" at your villa?" She really sounded like she was his jealous girlfriend.
"Hmm.... wait....!!? Babe? Who the hell is that?" his brows furrowed in more confusion.
"Wow!!!" The sarcasm in her voice was obvious, "Just wow Cheng Ze. I'm not buying this. You clearly said "BABE." Lori Shen? Does it ring any bells?"
