His words may have warmed her heart but Lu Mengjie still couldn't help but doubt. No one could tell when his heart would change. She couldn't help but feel scared when she thought of that happening.

Ding!

"Ugh.

" She grunted.

"Can I bury her right now?

"

"Then should I start digging?

" He chuckled in response.

Ah, yes. Her husband knew how to brighten her mood. He truly knew her now. If she was going to kill someone, he was not going to stop her, instead, he would join her on the crime as well.

She released him from her hug and went back to the entrance. When she opened the door once again, the other woman threw murderous glares at her.

"Stand down, Xue Lihua.

" Han Yizhou finally appeared, standing beside Lu Mengjie.

In an instant, the other woman's eyes became teary and acted out as if she had been wronged by Lu Mengjie.

"L-Liwei… your new girl, she hurt me.

" She showed her red, swollen hand at him.

Lu Mengjie raised a brow at how fake she was. Even her acting was not that good. But for some reason, from how she acted, it seemed like the other woman saw herself as Yong Liwei's favorite.

The expression on Han Yizhou's face remained unchanged.

"Go back to your post, Xue Lihua,

" he ordered.

"B-but you said… last night… you promised to spend the day with me.

"

"I don't recall any promises.

" He remembered her conversation last night. Xue Lihua did tell Yong Liwei that she wanted to spend the day with him but he never gave her an answer so she interpreted it as a 'yes' like how she usually did. But this time, things were different.

"But boss… I did my job… I deserve a…

" Xue Lihua was rather hesitant to continue. Every time she accomplished the mission he gave her, he would always reward her depending on the difficulty of the task. This time, she only hesitated because of Lu Mengjie's presence.

"It seems like you don't know who I am. Darling, why don't you introduce me to her?

" She crossed her arms once again and raised her chin as she gave her a domineering look.

"I don't care who you are!

" The other woman exclaimed.

"Oh yes you will.

" She nudged Han Yizhou's side lightly, giving him a signal to introduce her.

The man had a helpless look in his eyes. He smiled a bit before he began introducing her.

"Lihua, meet my wife, Lu Mengjie.

"

Xue Lihua's eyes slowly widened in disbelief. Boss has a wife?! She never heard of anything about his marriage at all. She knew that his boss never liked touching others with his bare hands. He would keep them out of reach even while having sex.

For Yong Liwei. Sex was just sex. No kissing on the lips. No affectionate touches. His gaze was cold but as she witnessed the difference in how Han Yizhou held Lu Mengjie by her waist with his bare hands, she could tell that she was special. The very exemption. He was not wearing any gloves at all.

This time, the tears that welled up in her eyes became real. She loved Yong Liwei and she was hoping that maybe one day, she could make him love her back but who would have thought that he was now married to someone else?

"Does she remember what you did?

" Xue Lihua's sudden question took the couple by surprise.

It was then that the security arrived on time.

"Excuse me, miss. We've received a report that you've been bothering them. Please come with us peacefully.

"

"She'll hate you, Liwei.

" If she can't have her then she is not going to give them an easy time in their marriage.

"What does she mean?

" Lu Mengjie finally asked, turning her gaze to the man beside her.

Even Han Yizhou couldn't help but look at her in confusion. He was clueless at the words Xue Lihua spouted.

It seems like he had no idea what she was talking about. He had no recollection of anything that could make Lu Mengjie hate him. He had already confessed his sins to her but… was it everything? He couldn't tell. He could still feel that Yong Liwei was keeping something from him.

"I don't know.

" He wanted to ask Xue Lihua but she had already left together with the security.

Just like him, Lu Mengjie was still bothered. Not all of her memories has returned. She still has to have something or maybe someone to trigger them. She still has to remember what really happened during her escape from being kidnapped. What caused her to lose her memories?

"Jiejie…?

"

Their attention was grabbed when they heard a familiar voice. They turned their heads together towards the person.

Xia Liqin was standing at the door of his room. He was looking at them in surprise, totally not expecting the people he knew staying just after his room.
