A pair of slender arms hooked around his neck. In the next instant, his lips were covered by the girl's soft lips. Her nimble tongue pried open his mouth quickly and a breath of fresh air poured in.

He instinctively kissed her back greedily, as though he's taking everything from her. He even reached out with his hands to imprison her body in his embrace. His large hands traveled up her body from her waist onwards and finally cupped her soft breasts. The forceful kiss stole all logic away.

He struggled to open his eyes after a long and lingering kiss, in a bid to remember what she looked like. To remember the swollen lips that he kissed and to remember her lithe figure that he had touched…

"Boom!" A clap of thunder sounded out. The man's eyes snapped open, and the memories in his mind stopped abruptly.

"Fourth Young Master, I've found out that the girl who saved you in Jiang City a year ago is the only daughter of the Lu family, Lu Youyou." Gu Cheng sat in the front passenger seat. He turned sideways to hand the information in his hand to the man sitting in the back seat of the car with a gloomy look. Gu Cheng did not notice that his Fourth Young Master seemed to be deep in thought and continued talking. "The Lu family moved to the Sea City in the past two years. Their ancestral home was in Jiang City. It was indeed a coincidence, that the eldest daughter of the Lu family would happen to meet you when she returned to her ancestral home a year ago…"

The man in the backseat did not say a word as he stared with his pitch black pupils at the little girl in the pictures, flipping the pictures back and forth.

The atmosphere in the car tensed up, as though influenced by the thunderstorm outside. Gu Cheng looked to his brother, Gu Fan, who was driving, for help.

Gu Fan carefully looked at the man behind him through the rearview mirror and probed cautiously. "Fourth Young Master, you fell into the reservoir then as you were set up by the First Young Master and the Second Young Master. We investigated for a long time and deemed that it was indeed pure coincidence that Miss Lu had appeared and saved you. The situation was urgent then and she had no choice but to do CPR on you! It's highly unlikely that she had taken the chance to take advantage of you then… If I may say so, the young lady was only 18 years old at that time. She's young and it likely wasn't easy for her to fish you out of the water too. Please… let her go…"

Everyone knew that the richest family in Sea City, the Fang Family, had four handsome young masters. However, the Fourth Young Master, Fang Yichu, was the only one with the most gossip. He was said to be temperamental, a neat freak, aqua-phobic and was the most difficult young master to serve. As for how the other members of the Fang family viewed him, it was worse. He was seen as a useless child with a disability.

Gu Cheng and Gu Fan had been by Fang Yichu's side since they were young. Although they knew that the little girl did CPR on the Fourth Young Master then with the sole intention of saving him, it could also be said that she had stolen his first kiss! They guessed that the reason why Fourth Young Master had been looking for her for the past year was to settle a score with her.

When he thought about it, Gu Cheng could not help himself but to chip in. "Fourth Young Master, although the Lu family has been in Sea City for only a short period of time, they have a high social standing in the city. Moreover, Miss Lu is their only child and I have heard that she is the apple of their eye. If we are looking to settle the score with her, I'm afraid…"

"When did I say that I was going to settle a score with her?" The man in the backseat lifted his chin suddenly. His stare was grave and probing as he looked at his two assistants incredulously as if they were monsters.

Gu Fan almost lost his grip on the steering wheel at that. Gu Cheng, who was seated beside him, also had a look of disbelief on him. When was the last time that the Fourth Young Master spoke? It had been so long that they could not remember.

Fang Yichu narrowed his eyes slightly at their looks of surprise, a dangerous signal dancing in his eyes. Despite this, Gu Fan asked fearlessly. "In that case, why have you been looking for her?"

Fang Yichu's lips curved in a rare smile as he held the pictures in his hand and looked out of the window.

The stormy weather had brought with it fog and visibility was poor especially through the car windows.

Fang Yichu calmly voiced out. "I don't know."

The Gu brothers were shocked again.

Suddenly, Gu Fan turned the steering wheel abruptly and stepped on the brakes.

All three were thrown forward by the momentum.

"Fourth Young Master!" Gu Cheng, who regained his senses quickly, was shocked. He nagged at his brother as he unbuckled his seatbelt to take a look at the situation in the backseat. "Why were you driving so fast when it's raining…"

Gu Fan's face turned pale. "I think I almost hit someone!"

"This is a mountain road. Who would be here?" Gu Cheng glared at his brother.

"There's really someone!" Gu Fan unlocked the car, opened his door, and stepped out.

At this moment, a small green figure shot out from behind Gu Fan and quickly slipped into the car. The speed at which it did so seemed as though it had practiced the same movement thousands of times.

Streaks of water dripped down her body which quickly drenched the seats and footrest. She crawled to Fang Yichu's side and curled up into a ball before she spoke in a shaky voice. "Drive! Please, hurry."
