When you forgive, you in no way change the past - but you sure do change the future.

Lee's Villa
Lee Jun Ting was already wide awake before Zhou Qin Yang, he move his head to side and stare her beautiful fair face as she is still asleep. Her soft breathing calms his heart as he moved his arms around her waist and pull her in closer, taking in her vanilla scent. Lee Jun Ting wish this moment would last forever.
Zhou Qin Yang's sleep is disturbed by his small movements, she slowly open her eyes and found herself in his embrace. Her face heat up because of his big body frame over her.
" Are you awake? Did I wake you up? " Lee Jun Ting asks, Zhou Qin Yang close her eyes as she hears his deep mellow voice from his chest. She shakes her head " No.. I was dreaming then I woke up"
" Are you hungry? " he remove his hand and tilt his body facing her, he stare into her ocean blue eyes as if they were the most precious diamond in the world. Zhou Qin Yang stare back at his hazel eyes glowing because of the sunlight coming in through the window " Hmm... I am craving for pancakes today.."
Lee Jun Ting wiggle his eyebrows " I can make you some. "
" You can cook? " Qin Yang is surprise. What is it that he can't do?
" Of course. I learn how to cook just for you. I need to spoil you sometimes you know, I can't allow you to cook for me only. " he pinch her nose lightly. Zhou Qin Yang then thought for a moment " Then.. can I go to work today ?"
Lee Jun Ting frowns at her question " The doctor said you have to rest for a week to recover fully." Zhou Qin Yang pouts " Ah Ting, I have been resting for 3 days already. I am already fine plus it's just a few bruises you know. My work will pile up !" She showed her most pitiful and sad look so that Lee Jun Ting could reconsider.
Lee Jun Ting knows he couldn't bear to see her like this, he sighs as he admits defeat " Alright... You can go to work today but you have to work in my office where I can see you. I don't feel safe knowing you are going against the doctor's advice. "
Zhou Qin Yang instantly change her expression and squeals, she wraps her hands around his neck and kiss his forehead " Thank you ! It's fine since it's until the end of this week ! At least don't have to worry about my work piling up"
Because of her sudden actions, it accidentally spark something within Lee Jun Ting. He turn around and press his body on top of her. Zhou Qin Yang became flustered by his movements, she held his chest away from her " Ah Ting, what are you doing?! "
" You should not have done that." he gave a sly smile. A maid who is outside have been waiting for the right moment to come in but as she glances on the wall clock, the more she waited the more late her master will be for work. Without any second thoughts, she knocks on the door and open it " Master Lee, it's time for wor- "
She immediately close her eyes with her hands when she saw Lee Jun Ting on top of Zhou Qin Yang, the moment was ruined once again.
