The next morning, Kai Xin received a sudden text from her boss informing her that someone requested for her to take on a merger and acquisition matter . She had tried to explain to her boss that she was not well-versed with corporate matters but he had said that the client was adamant to have her on board . She would be working with a team of experienced lawyers and it would be a good learning experience for her as well as the chance to widen her portfolio . In the end, she agreed .

"Matthew, what time is my appointment with the client? Who is he?" She intercommed her PA the moment she entered into her room in the office .

Within seconds, he buzzed back, "Morning, Ms Zhen . The client is Xun Holdings . It was listed on the exchange recently and they are looking to expand their holdings and they are considering an M&A with IT Ltd . " The young assistant reported as he looked at the notes he made on his files, "The owner is Shenlong Xun, 30 years old . The company is about 12 years old, and they specialize in building graphic cards . "

Kai Xin leaned back into her chair as Matthew drone on . She thought as she flipped through the document, "So the founder was 18 years old when he built the company . Pretty impressive . "

"The meeting is set at 10am . "

Kai Xin glanced at the clock above the door, "45 minutes . I'm going to work on my other cases for now . Set up the meeting room and let me know when they are here . "

-----------------------

When she looked up from her work, it was already 10 . 30am . Annoyed, she quickly gathered her stuff and stormed out of her room . When she saw her assistant chatting away with another paralegal, she blew her top off and snapped at him .

"Matthew! I told you to inform me of the meeting! Where are the clients?"

Matthew saw the angry look in her face and shivered, "In the meeting room . "

"Why didn't you tell me earlier?" She quickly head towards the meeting room .

Matthew felt wronged as he complaint inwardly, "But he refused to let me bother you . . . and he was so much scarier than you . "

Just as she was about to enter into the meeting room, she was pulled back into the smaller, windowless meeting room which was reserved for special clients . Panic, she struggled to fight off her captor . She quickly controlled her fear and tried to give him a back kick . However, he stopped her attack with his leg . His grip on her was firm as he turned her around .

"Shhh . . . It's me!"

She looked up and saw her lover standing there with a guilty grin .

"DX, you jerk!" She snapped angrily . "How could-"

He stopped her angry tirade by pushing her against the wall, his hand firm against the back of her head to prevent injury . With swift movement, he locked the door as he lay his mouth upon hers . She struggled against his dominance at first as she wanted to berate him but she eventually gave in to his urgent kisses . When he noticed that she was no longer denying him, he tightened his hold around her and lifted her up so that she can wrapped her legs around him tightly .

She melted against the the warm permeating from his body, the same warmth that often gave her strength and yet rendered her helpless against his touches . His tongue expertly danced across her lips, licking and sucking, before demanding to enter and when she parted, with a hand at the back of her head, he pushed it so that he can better taste her .

Her smell, her touches, those little sparks of fire in her eyes when he kissed her suddenly . Everything about her was driving him crazy! He was filled with a need he cannot explain as he lowered her down on the meeting table . He kissed her as if he was dying and she was the one who can give him the breathe of life . . . As if she was the only thing in the world that matters .

He only forced himself to pull away when he noticed that she was losing the battle . Breathing hard, he grinned, "Miss . . . me?"
