"All that time! It's all gone to waste!"

The moment Liu Rachael walked into the kitchen, her sense of smell was assaulted by the smell of burnt food. Strength suddenly left her legs, as she landed on her butt, she kept looking around her in a daze not knowing what to do, it was as if her brain suddenly stopped working at that moment.

Meanwhile, Duan Chengyu had silently followed his new helper, he saw exactly when she slid to the floor, while staring blankly at the stove.

"Miss Liu?"

The Chairman of Cinopec Group called out to her, but she still had a blank look on her face.

"Miss Liu!"

It was only when he called out to her in a louder voice, did she finally snap back to the present to face him.

"Yes?!"

"Huh?"

"I'm sorry! I meant to say, Yes Chairman Duan!"

Liu Rachael totally misunderstood why he replied the way he did, it wasn't because he thought she was being rude, but he was merely concerned that her response was somewhat sluggish.

His face reflected none of his inner thought while looking into her eyes, causing her to blush in the process.

"Would I have any food to eat this night?"

The gentle inquire from him, made Liu Rachael realize she couldn't keep moping while the food was still burning on the stove. Duan Chengyu saw her struggle to get up from the floor, this made him reach out a hand to help her up.

"Thank you."

"You're welcome."

Hearing her soft voice whisper the words of gratitude made Duan Chengyu's heart melt from the vulnerability he sensed underneath her tough exterior.

He saw her move towards the stove to cut the knob, while putting on an oven glove. Donning an oven glove of his own, he began helping her around the kitchen.

"What are you doing?!"

"Helping out, what else?"

"It's okay, I can handle it by myself. Just wait in the dinning for me!"

"And do what?"

"You can read the newspaper or look at your phone! There are so many things you could do! So please! Just wait there until I bring you your food!"

Liu Rachael could feel her throat hurt from trying to explain to him to just leave her alone to clean the mess in the kitchen and salvage whatever was left of dinner.

She didn't know when he got behind her while she was at the kitchen counter putting food into several serving dishware made from porcelain and placing their lid of transparent glass on each of them.

"Here, let me help you with that."

Liu Rachael could feel his soft breath brush against her ear, as her hands trembled from the ache it drew up from within her.

"You..You..don't need...to help me!"

"Miss Liu, it's okay. I wouldn't bite!"

As if to prove what he said, Duan Chengyu leaned closer with his head slightly resting on her shoulder, while the hands by her waist was as though he was holding her in an embrace.
