Da Tu Li sashayed into Yue Gu Zai's study room.

Zhen Zhen was eating cheese in Yue Gu Zai's study room, but she choked at the sight of Da Tu Li's cleavage and long legs in a skimpy red tank top and tight red shorts. Zhen Zhen thought her body insecurities worsened each time she saw Da Tu Li.

Zhen Wu was reading in a corner of his dad's study room. He heard the sounds of heels and looked up, a tall lady in red was strutting toward his dad.

'It appears dad likes this type of woman,' Zhen Wu said. 'Mum, I think you should consider consulting plastic surgeons about increasing your A cup to B cup.'

'Who said I'm A cup?' Zhen Zhen denied. 'I'm at least B cup.'

Zhen Wu shook his head after he saw Da Tu Li's red lips were approaching his dad's lips.

'Mum, I bet dad won't let that lady kiss him,' Zhen Wu said. 'The loser has to be the winner's slave for a week.'

'OK, as if your dad would reject a kiss from a beautiful woman,' Zhen Zhen said. 'Zhen Wu, close your eyes. It's not appropriate for you to see them kissing.'

Zhen Wu pulled his mum's hand away from his eyes. 'Mum, if you cover my eyes then how will I know if dad let the lady kiss him or not?'

The green vein on Yue Gu Zai's forehead almost jumped out. He heard his wife and son betting at his expense.

'Go outside,' Yue Gu Zai ordered his wife and son.

Zhen Zhen and Zhen Wu stood and they walked toward the door.

Zhen Zhen turned around, smiled and apologized. 'We won't bother your private time together. Although we were here first, we'll leave and let you two continue.'

Da Tu Li laughed after Zhen Zhen and Zhen Wu left the study room.

'You have an interesting little girlfriend,' Da Tu Li praised.

Yue Gu Zai saw Da Tu Li coming toward him and he glared coldly at her. 'Stay far away from me.'

'What a cold man,' Da Tu Li said. 'Do you really don't want me? You and Shu Tang Yue are at stalemate. If you marry me, I'll hand over the reign of the Da Household to you as a dowry. I won't mind if you have a mistress. Why don't you think about my offer?'

'I don't need to rely on a woman at work,' Yue Gu Zai said coldly. 'You didn't come here to talk rubbish.'

'Of course, I came here to beg you to release Da Fu Li,' Da Tu Li said.

'Not possible,' Yue Gu Zai rejected.

'I don't know why Fu Li dared to offend you,' Da Tu Li said. 'I know no one stays alive after offending you. But can you give me face and release Fu Li this time. I'll take him back and the Da Household will discipline him. Think about it, if you exchange a half dead boy, you'll get a profitable favor from the Da Household in return.'

Yue Gu Zai thought about the offer for a while. 'OK, it's possible.'

'I knew you would agree,' Da Tu Li said.

Da Tu Li walked toward the door, turned around and blew Yue Gu Zai an air kiss. 'I'm happy to welcome you whenever you decide the little deer can't satisfy you.'

Outside in the living room, Zhen Zhen received a call from her supervisor Jiang.

'Hello supervisor Jiang,' Zhen Zhen greeted.

'Zhen Zhen, you've been sick with a stomach ulcer for more than two months,' Jiang lamented. 'Although having a healthy body is a priority, but even if you have ten stomach ulcers, they would have been healed by now. Zhen Zhen, you can't keep neglecting your scientific research. My boss wants to check on your progress. And they asked me to ask you to setup a suitable time to see you.'

Zhen Zhen didn't know she had a stomach ulcer. But it wasn't important as her research. 'Supervisor Jiang, it's my fault. Tomorrow I'll return to the lab and complete my research.'

On the other side of the phone, Jiang was happy to hear good news about Zhen Zhen returning to work. But on Zhen Zhen's end, she was stressing while she walked back to Yue Gu Zai's study. She didn't know what happened during the two month period she lost her memory. Regardless of Yue Gu Zai being considerate enough to ask supervisor Jiang for her sick leave, Yue Gu Zai didn't have the right to control her freedom. But her confidence waned after she stood in front of Yue Gu Zai.

Yue Gu Zai looked up from his reports. 'Zhen Zhen, did something happen?'

'Tomorrow I'll be going back to the lab,' Zhen Zhen said weakly.

'OK, I'll ask Cheng Yi to go with you,' Yue Gu Zai said.

'I don't mean going there for a visit,' Zhen Zhen said. 'I mean I need to go back to work.'

Yue Gu Zai tossed the reports on the table. 'Do you think I can't support you?'

'The issue isn't about whether you can support me or not,' Zhen Zhen said. 'What's important to me is that this is the career I've chosen for myself. Besides, I'm not your woman. Why do you need to support me?'

'We're married,' Yue Gu Zai said. 'You're my legal wife. Can you say you're not my woman?'

'Liar!' Zhen Zhen said. 'When did I marry you?'

Yue Gu Zai picked up his and Zhen Zhen's framed marriage certificate and showed it to Zhen Zhen.

Zhen Zhen looked in disbelief at her signature next to Yue Gu Zai's signature at the bottom of their marriage certificate.

'This doesn't count,' Zhen Zhen said. 'You must have used an opportunity while my head was muddled to trick me to marry you. Also, for a marriage to count, there needs to be a wedding ceremony, a wedding cake and a honeymoon after the wedding. But I don't remember any events about marrying you.'

Zhen Zhen refused to admit she vaguely remembered marrying Yue Gu Zai.

'Are you saying you want a proper wedding ceremony and a honeymoon for our marriage to count?' Yue Gu Zai asked.

'That's not what I meant,' Zhen Zhen said.

Zhen Zhen was on the verge of going insane. She strode out of the triad boss' study. It didn't matter if Yue Gu Zai was the father of her son, her career was still important to her. Regardless whether Yue Gu Zai agreed about her returning to work, she was determined to finish her research the following day.
