The drive back to Duan mansion was a quiet and gentle one. During the time that her ex-boyfriend was dropped off, Liu Rachael refused to look in his direction. The pain of their breakup still fresh in her mind. It wasn't long before the cool air coming from the car's air conditioning soon lured her into a soundless sleep.
"I thought she would never lower her guard around me."
A smile stole across the face of Duan Chengyu as he saw the shoulders of his helper droop with her head resting against the window of the car.
"What am I going to do with you, Miss Liu?"
No sooner had the words left his mouth, Duan Chengyu closed the space between them and tucked the head of Liu Rachael to rest against his shoulder, wrapping a arm securely against her back.
Unaware that she was now sleeping on her boss's shoulder, Liu Rachael snuggled closer to the source of the heat her body could sense coming from the man that sat by her in the car. Looking through the rearview mirror, Lan Tuo saw his boss cuddling Liu Rachael, his eyes hastily slipped away from what he saw to face the road ahead of him.
Soon after, the car belonging to the Chairman of Cinopec Group pulled into a magnificent building whose light gave it a somewhat magical look.
The driver got out of the car to open the door behind him.
"Chairman Duan, I'll carry Miss Liu inside."
Although he said that, the driver could tell that his suggestion was not well taken from the way he saw the eyes of Duan Chengyu darken.
"There is no need for you to carry her, I will do it myself! Just get the door for me!"
True to his words, Duan Chengyu wriggled his way out of the cool interior of the car, holding in his arms a woman that was deep in sleep.
