it was already evening when the young liu coupled went back home.

witnessing the addiction of han meixiu earlier, liu zijian ordered to built a home indoor shooting range in their new home.

"do you still have things you need to get from your apartment?" he asked han meixiu who looked tired but contented sitting beside him. he was typing something on his laptop and didn't move his eyes away from the screen when he spoke.

she blinked several times as she looked at liu zijian to confirm if he's talking to her.

he quickly glanced at her confirming that he's indeed talking to her.

"oh, i have few. i'll get them tomorrow." she answered. she has been checking her phone hoping li xioazhi would send her a message but there's still none until now.

she originally wanted to go back to her place to get some few things but she didn't want to go there alone. the fear she felt when someone came inside her unit unannounced was still lingering within her. she didn't know who it was and for what purpose that person took her things.

but since li xioazhi seemed to be still busy, she didn't know who could accompany her. she looked at the man sitting beside her, yes, she considered him but looking how busy he was she changed her mind.

maybe she could ask aunt jing if she couldn't really contact li xiaozhi. it would only take at most an hour anyway.

"let's go tomorrow morning, then." he said with finality.

"i can go with aunt jing. you don't need to come. i know you're very busy." she answered. she didn't want to be a bother. he clearly has many things to do.

"it's fine. unless you don't want to." he said and lazily folded the laptop. how could he not accompany her. it just for few hours. besides, he also wanted to see her own place. his tone didn't really contain any trace of giving in to her suggestion.

after the incident where both liu zilong and han meixiu encountered danger, he didn't want his wife to be out of sight. if she might come across another situation it would be better if he's around.

"no, no, no. let's go together." she immediately answered. how could she decline if his highness wanted to go with her. his words that were embedded with a mild authoritarian tone made her realize that he really wanted to go with her. she could only accept.

dinner was already prepared when the two arrived. after eating liu zijian went to his study while han meixiu wanted to take a bath.

she enjoyed shooting much more than she thought she would. out of the five she was able to try, she finally decided that the rock island armory ultra fs 9mm suited her the best.

after her bath, she prepared her tea and went in the living room to watch some late news. although she's not someone who was interested in normal current events, there were times she wanted to update herself.

there was still about the gang fight incident in the news but the claimed of the man she heard wasn't mentioned. she then wondered if it was purposely hidden or the claim was not really true.

her thoughts went back to her father again. she wasn't able to ask him why was he in that place to begin with. was he one of those people who knew that there would be an upcoming gang fight? he was clearly waiting for the fight to end inside that place. it was as if he expected it.

she was in deep thought thus she didn't notice when liu zijian went out of the study.

"you're still not tired?" he expected her to be already sleeping but he was surprised she was absent-mindedly watching tv.

she looked at him but her thoughts were still flying somewhere.

it was only when liu zijian cupped her face using his both hands and gently knocked her forehead using his own.

"sleeping..now?" she asked and tried to avoid his gaze. until now she still couldn't meet his eyes directly without being flustered. it might take a time before she could get used to it.

"you're waiting for me?" he teasingly asked looking as if any moment a seductive smile would appear on his face. his wife started to blush as she struggled to answer his question.

nobody told him teasing someone would be this fun especially if the reaction would be extremely pleasing to his eyes.

han meixiu didn't actually know which answer would be correct. she felt that whatever her answer would be the result would just be the same.

"uh.."

in the end she wasn't able to finish whatever she wanted to say. without a warning he kissed her and slowly explored her inside once again tasting every nook and corner. when she thought it would escalate further, he stopped. feeling a bit disappointed, she confusedly looked at him.

"i see. you're drinking tea." he said and traced her lips using his thumb.

she was left dumbfounded and felt the ticklish sensation. he seriously didn't see the teacup on the table?

"i'll wait for you inside." he said and let her go. his voice was warmer than usual. it was just a casual remark but han meixiu felt as if he was seducing her.

the next morning after eating the breakfast prepared by aunt jing, the two went to her apartment.

han meixiu checked her phone from time to time hoping that a message from her best friend would eventually appear. but there was still nothing. she actually tried to call her last night but she couldn't connect. it seemed that her phone was turned off.

her apartment was exactly the same like before. if she didn't know that there used to be a crime map on her wall and some documents were missing, she would really thought nothing's wrong inside.

she just took a couple of personal things she thought she might use thus they didn't stay long.

when they were in the lobby they unexpectedly meet someone.

"i never thought i will meet second young master liu here," an enigmatic low toned voice caught their attention.

han meixiu was walking a step behind liu zijian thus she didn't see who greeted her husband. she peeked and her eyes widened in surprise.

'it's chen dewei! why is he here?'
