It was her fault for not reading the contract properly. Lanni had neither stolen the signature nor forced her to sign it. 

"You're right. No matter what kind of lawyer she hires, we will not be liable for her carelessness." Lanni snickered. "I guess she thought she was betraying the Ji family and teaching them a lesson for letting her go to prison. Little did she know that she would fall into what she thought was a trap she laid."

Remembering something, she said to Ji Xiehan, "Right. This is how you will convince your parents that the Feng family had a deal with Ji Feifei."

Ji Xiehan knew what she was talking about. However, that didn't seem convincing enough since no one had signed it.  

Also, "honey, can we not talk about other people right now?" 

"Right." Lanni looked up at him. 

"Thank you." He suddenly said. 

"You don't need to thank me. I enjoyed helping you and besides, it's just a small part." Ji Xiehan was dealing with the difficult matters. He had already held a meeting with most of the higher-ups and got them on the Ji family's side. 

Now, even if the Feng family somehow magically managed to obtain more shares than the Ji family, they were several steps behind—they had less supporters on their side. 

Even so, Ji Xiehan still had to thank her. She had made it harder for the Feng family. He placed his hands on her shoulders and gazed into her grey orbs. "My love, how do you want me to thank you?" 

Lanni felt her heart racing as she looked up into his eyes. Why did that question sound so wrong? She maintained her gaze in his charming eyes and threw the question back at him.  "How do you want to thank me?" 

Ji Xiehan looked like he had been anticipating that question. He held her chin between his thumb and forefinger. "I want to thank you in bed… by making love to you." 

Lanni felt her cheeks heat up. Did he just say that? "I-I…" 

"Are you okay now?" He asked, leaning his head lower. 

Suddenly seeing his eyes so close, she gasped as her heartbeat quickened even further. Without a doubt, he was asking about her period. She nodded, then suddenly realized just how shameless her nod seemed. 

As expected, Ji Xiehan took that as permission. He leaned in and kissed her lips. He started off light and soft, then deepened the kiss as his right hand went behind her neck while his left hand found her waist, circled it and pulled her against his chest. 

She lifted her hands and hugged his neck, letting her fingers trail the back of his neck all the way to his silver-white hair that was still slightly damp. She gasped as she felt his hand snake down her body and squeeze her butt.

She involuntarily let out a m.o.a.n, knowing better than anyone just what he was about to do to her. He had anticipated this since the night they were in Berlin and so had she. 

She felt her legs weaken into a puddle as he lifted her. She opened her eyes when she felt her back land gently on the soft, white bed. Her eyes met his blue, l.u.s.tful ones as he pressed her under him. 

She reached to unbutton the shirt he had worn just a few minutes ago. His body smelt nice and fresh after his shower, and she couldn't help kissing his neck as he eased her dress off her body. 

As soon as he saw those soft b.r.e.a.s.ts again, his patience evaporated into thin air, and he unhooked and took off her bra anxiously. His hand caressed his way to her cotton panties, and he impatiently tore it off. 

Lanni chuckled at his impatience, not minding it in the least bit. With a slight push, she flipped him below her with matching anticipating, pulled off his pants and boxer briefs to his knees and took his rock-hard and throbbing manhood in her hand. He groaned as he hugged her so she was lying over his body with his shaft between her legs. 

He looked into her eyes to see if she was willing to let him do what he was about to do. Seeing nothing but want in her eyes, he held her over him, directed his shaft between her thighs, kissing her neck as he pushed his h.i.p.s upwards to thrust into her. 

"Ah—!" Lanni suddenly let out a muffled scream at the same time that he felt an obstruction. He gently pushed her off him in alarm. 

"Are you alright?" When she nodded, he held her in his arms and hugged her gently.

"Are you hurt?" He asked although she had said she was alright. He knew instinctively what that obstruction just now was. "You didn't tell me it's your first time." 

Lanni chewed on her lower lip. "I didn't know either." 

Cheng Yu had told her that she had a boyfriend before. She had assumed that she might have done it with him. Apparently, that was what Ji Xiehan thought too. He had thought that since she had a boyfriend before, she wouldn't be a v.i.r.g.i.n. 

He snapped from his thoughts and went to the bathroom to run a bath. When the bath was ready, he returned and carried her off the bed. 

"Where are you taking me?" 

"I'm going to check if you're hurt." He said regretfully as he used his foot to open the bathroom door. He shouldn't have been so impatient with her. He had never slept with a woman before, let alone a v.i.r.g.i.n; but from what other people said, a woman's first time might be painful. How could he let his other head control his thoughts? 

"What's with that expression?" Lanni laughed as she wrapped her arms around his neck. She knew that he must be blaming himself. "If I didn't know, how would you have known? Besides, it wasn't too painful." 

Ji Xiehan nodded and placed her into the tub, his eyes gazing at her gently. Although he didn't have anything against a woman who wasn't a v.i.r.g.i.n, he was still happy that she was all his. He had never said this before but he had been a little jealous of her ex-boyfriend. 

"I'm kinda happy that I haven't been with anyone before you." Lanni suddenly said. Although he had never asked about it, she had always thought that a man like Ji Xiehan might prefer 'pure' and untouched women. For this reason, she was slightly afraid that he might be disappointed. 

Ji Xiehan chuckled. She was thinking of the same thing as him. Looking at her, he could vaguely guess her unsaid words too. 

Letting the water run over her skin, he looked at her seriously. "Lanni, I want you know that our relationship is not just about s.e.x. I mean, s.e.x is definitely a part of it but it's not the only part nor is it the most important." 

Lanni no longer felt awkward talking about this with him. They would have to discuss it sooner or later. 

"I said this before and I do not mind saying it again in case you forget." He continued under her gaze. "Lanni, relationsh.i.p.s are not a joking matter to me. I'm not one to mess around with women. I had never dated before because there was no woman that I thought was good enough for me to spend the rest of my life with. 

Since I found you and chose you, I will not fall for anyone else. You are the one I will marry when the time is right, have kids with and spend the rest of my life with." 

If anyone else said those words, Lanni might think they were only trying to please her with words they had probably told every other woman they messed with. But the seriousness in Ji Xiehan's eyes and his confident and decisive tone made her believe that he meant every word he said. 

The slight tension in her heart eased. "What a coincidence. I don't think it's a good idea to mess around either. Since I decided to be with you, it's only going to be you now and in future." 

Glad that they were of the same opinion about relationsh.i.p.s, he pressed a slight kiss on her forehead. 

"What are you doing?" She yelped when he suddenly parted her legs. 

"Checking if you're hurt." He said seriously. 

"Are you really going to check me down there?" She blushed at the thought of it. 

In response, he pinched her adorably flushed cheeks playfully "How is one girl able to blush so many times?" 

"It's all your fault!" He was the one who kept doing things that embarassed her. 

Ji Xiehan's lips curled into a smile. "You're my girlfriend. Why can't I look at you? You've seen mine too. You have touched it too. You even…" 

"Stop talking about it!" She splashed bubbles to his face. "Anyway, why are you kneeling outside the tub? Come in, let's bathe together." 

"Sure." He slipped in immediately like he was just waiting for the word.
