"In the world full of choices, I have only you!" *** Excerpt: “Marry me!” At the commanding voice, Yun Meiyi turned around with a scowl. And there he was with a face sculpted by the best artists in heaven and a body designed to torture the most defying soul in hell, he looked like any male, she had fantasized about, while reading the romantic novels. But there was something in his impeccable beauty that cautioned her against him. As if it was the call of heaven asking her to reject him straight away. “Look for someone else, I am not interested.” She said and then turned away, finding his words meaninglessly arrogant. But just as she turned, his warning came teasingly, “Are you sure you want to defy me?” Her frown deepened as she turned to ask, “What’s so special about defying you? Are you a lord of some kingdom whom one can’t defy?” The man’s lips curled up in a devilish smirk that looked like a part of his nature. “Even better. I am the Prince of Darkness. The Devil of this universe.” *** She was a human... He was the Devil of the Universe! She was betrayed... He could be called anything that meant deceit! She was poisoned ... While his existence was on stake! Without their knowledge, their fates were intertwined. Making her, his only Survival choice!! ______________ Update Schedule: Monday, Wednesday & Friday.

Liu Si Si frowned as she looked at Yun Meiyi waiting for her response. Even though Meiyi was swift in her moves, from the corner of her eyes she was still able to catch the sight of the contact id displayed on the screen.
Yun Meiyi paused for a moment but then she again shook her head and said, "It couldn't be something important."
"How could you know that, Yi Yi. You didn't even receive the call."
Yun Meiyi smiled but her curl of lips showed a tinge of mockery, "From when did Mr. Yun start to have important matters to discuss with me? It's nothing that needs to be told. I have known this since the day I came to Yun mansion."
"Yi Yi that …"
"Si Si, it's getting late. Let's go first. Later, I need to go somewhere else as well." She said and then without even waiting for Liu Si Si to say something, she proceeded to walk out of the building.
This whole time they didn't notice but there was a pair of eyes that were intricately staring at them, specifically at Yun Meiyi. When he saw her leave, he pulled down the blinds before walking away as well.
After walking a distance, he called someone to say, "Young Master Su, Ms. Yun visited Feathering Heights today. And people here are saying that she has joined the company as a new manager."
On the other end of the call, the man sounded a bit disappointed, "A manager? Who appointed her? Don't they know her title?"
"..." The informer didn't say anything for a good moment of time and when the man on the other end of the call sensed the silence, he also didn't ask more.
Keeping his tone authoritative, he said, "Fine, just be around her and keep your eyes on her movements. I want every detail." He said before disconnecting the call.
"CEO Su, should we hire some more men to keep an eye on Ms. Yun?" When saw his boss disconnecting the call, Secretary Peng asked. His expression held a confusion still he hid it well behind to not get noticed by Su Yang.
"No need, one man would be enough. After all, Yun Meiyi is not a complicated woman. Her life must have gotten simpler after getting out of the Yun family. I just want her to be within my range. So that as long as I want, I can reach her at any time."
Su Yang said before looking up at his secretary. Then giving small mocking laughter, he continued, "How could a manager position in some entertainment company be better than the title of Madam Su. I am just waiting to see her come back begging. Sooner or later, she would be here on her knees asking for my mercy."
The secretary didn't believe that. Although he accepted that Elder Miss Yun has suffered a lot in recent days, he still couldn't forget the spark that her eyes held last time at the celebration party. The confidence in her wine-ish pairs told him that she had risen back from her ashes and would never return to be what she was before.
And his thesis from that night only got proven right today when he got to hear that the lady has secured a job at Feathering Heights. Although Feathering Heights could still not be compared to Su Enterprises or Yun Organization, it still held a good reputation in the market. It has risen to the top company in the entertainment industry. Securing a simple job in it was already a tough job, but the lady has still got herself to the position of manager. It was more than commendable.
As he thought of Yun Meiyi, an expression of admiration got over his face. But he didn't allow himself to drown deep into it. Snapping himself out from it, he quickly said, "Okay, CEO Su, I will then ask the same person to keep a closer eye on her." He said and was about to bow and ask permission to leave when Su Yang halted him to ask.
"Wait! Did you find anything about him?"
The secretary need not ask to know about whom the man was referring to as every day this particular question has become a daily ritual.
Shaking his head, he denied once again, "I have been trying to investigate him, CEO Su but his impression from the celebratory night has been quite blurry. We are not able to find out anything about him. Not even his very name." He said and Su Yang's fists clenched on the table.
Once again, the silhouette of the man with Meiyi in his arms flashed in front of his eyes. "I don't want to hear excuses. If he is someone from Qiging city, it shouldn't be tough to find out about him. Find out as soon as possible. I want to know every detail about him."
He said and the secretary nodded to him diligently. "I will look into him again, CEO Su."
Back at the underground parking spot, Yun Meiyi frowned as she saw her phone still ringing with the same number. Not just once or twice but it has been like that since the first call got disconnected.
"Yi Yi, he has been calling you continuously. Don't you think you should pick up the call to listen to what he is saying?" Liu Si Si asked with some hesitation laced in her voice.
Yun Meiyi also thought the same. Seeing her phone still ringing, she reached out to drag the icon to receive the call. Once connected, she was about to greet with the initials when heard an impatient voice from the other side instead.
"Where have you been? And why were you not receiving the calls?"
Yun Meiyi paused at his concerned voice for a bit. But just when she would have thought it otherwise, the memories of the man always shunning her away flashed in her thoughts and a soft flutter of laughter came from the deep of her throat.
"I never knew I was so precious to you, Mr. Yun, that not seeing me around for a few days you are already this anxious."
How do you think is Su Yang's character? He is more than what people think about him. Obsessive and controlling as far as this pretty author has known him.
But what keeps this ignorant author keen to his character is his end. What will happen to him when the story will unfold in his disadvantage. Will he still be this arrogant?
