Li Na side glanced at Lu Jianjun and she bit her lower lip as she tried to suppress her threatening laughter from bursting out.

'Ok, that was a little overboard there.' She didn't plan to flatter Mr Wu but then she remembered Lu Jianjun's words which he told her once in his study room.

Something saying that he has given her the freedom, which she doesn't deserve. Now, she has to earn that.

These words were stabbed in her as if she was questioned. Even if Lu Jianjun said these in regards to the dead Li Na. Still, she found him unjustified. Freedom is a birth of human, not some mercy granting by others.

Since he had asked for her to earn it. Then, he should realize this fact, that, she has, not only earned his attention but she also deserves her freedom. He shouldn't underestimate her in this manner. Oh, goodness he has no idea how many high heads, she had made to turn around, just so they couldn't forget her face or the fact that there's a girl like her exists.

And even if he's the prince or some tyrant, she shouldn't give a damn about it, he's just a handsome face but he shouldn't dejectedly ignore her like some trash dumped into a bin.

Meanwhile, Li Na enjoyed his irritated and annoyed expressions. She was more than sure, he must be questioning her character right now.

Oh yes, Keeping guessing.

Suddenly, Lu Jianjun raised his head and looked at her as if something strikes him. Their eyes locked. And she winked.

Lu Jianjun's face became darker.

He didn't know she understands how to manipulate others. She's a good manipulator. He was right. She did that intentionally. And she knows how to gain perception. She just wanted to enter his thoughts. Attention to her.

Honestly, he wasn't paying any attention to her when she warmly greeted the Butler because that's pretty much normal. But he looked at her when she said, 'please call her Li Na and she'll be happier.' He was stumped by so much flattery in her voice. And then he saw her heartfelt action and twinkling eyes, now that's was something he didn't foresee, for her to appear like. Afterwards, she went over the top, acting up like a happy-go-lucky girl seeing and talking bullshit with his butler.

" Li Na, are you sure you want to drink this-" the butler raised the cup of tea he made for Li Na when he realized the two were intensely staring at each other. Like a staring battle.

'Oh, Did I miss something? ' The butler thought to himself as the ambience was too intense between them without an exchange of a word.

Lu Jianjun's eyes moved from her teacup and back to her. Without breaking the battle of eyes contacts, he graciously picked up his teacup and leaned back on the chair, crossing his one legs over other.

Imitating the man's posture, Li Na held the teacup as graciously as him, just like the two well-raised people with all etiquettes and class.

Li Na arched her left eyebrow while the curve of her lips and the slight turn of her head which elicited as if she's taking and asking for his permission to drink the tea, and without waiting for his response she slowly took a sip provokingly.

Lu Jianjun lowered his eyes and drank his tea impassively.

"Blahh...' cough, cough...'" Li Na spit it out all the tea she drank and coughed heavily, almost choking herself to death on a single sip of his tea.

"Cough cough cough... W-what kind of venom is this?" she somehow managed to say but her voice was merely heard or understood. It was all choked up.

While Lu Jianjun leisurely enjoyed his tea without bothering anymore.

Now, that's how he had expected her to be.

Lu Jianjun inclined his head slightly and glanced at her as he said coolly, "This is not your cup of tea," And he meant it literally.

Li Na hurriedly picked up a water glass and emptied in one go. But the taste was so edgy and sharply sour as if she felt her tastebuds have been slaughtered.

"Brother, brother... Little Tiger went missing." Lu Junhui barged in, panicking and sweating at over his body. He bends down to catch his breath while heavily panting.

" I-I c-checked all over the villa, h-he's nowhere to found." He saw Li Na for a moment and, then continued. "Little Tiger was asleep when you left, but he's not there now," Lu Junhui blabbered as he came in his shorts and half-naked with his messy hairs like a birds nest.

Both Li Na's and Lu Jianjun's lips twitched looking at his current state. His brother didn't even bother to put on a shirt before running to him.

Li Na thought to herself looking at his dismay state, ' Is he really Lu Jianjun's younger brother?'

"Didn't we told you, not to leave the child. And now you lost him." Li Na said through gritted teeth, clenching her jaw.

" I think so, "Lu Junhui scratched his head while pulling his own hairs as the crisis was written on his face and the whole burden was on his shoulders. "I should have also installed cameras all over my place."

" Oh yeah, Instead of watching me over the screen, you should have done that," Li Na said seriously.

" Really, this is all because of you, you must have said something to Little Tiger that he..." Lu Junhui rebuked with frustration raising his voice.

Li Na's face darkened as she also raised her voice. "Oh, fuċk off, you're brother was also there, so don't spout nonsense if you don't know what happened."

"Shut up." Lu Jianjun cut them in. His expressions were chilled and horrifying.

Li Na froze instantly and Lu Junhui felt the chill run down his spine as he immediately sealed his running mouth.

Both of them stood at their respective places.

Lu Jianjun looked angered.

Seeing his dark expressions, Li Na thought to herself, from now on, if possible, she really prefers this guy ignoring her rather than successfully be provoked by her.

The silence lasted for several minutes, even their breathing felt loud. Suddenly, the silence broke by the low sound of a child's cry and whining by the disturbance.

Li Na and Lu Junhui's eyes dilated but they didn't dare to move.

"Ah, Second Master. Little Tiger is sleeping inside the room. I'll check if you guys just woke him up. " Butler Wu said slowly as he pointed towards Lu Jianjun's room and went to look at the little guy.

As if struck with lightning, Li Na and Lu Junhui glanced at each other pitifully, knowing that they had dug their own grave.
