18 Murphy, assume yourself as a girl.

Hearing the whole story from Lifen, Daiyu was no more in her angry mode, instead, she burst into a big laughter. 

Lifen was dumbfounded, she didn't expect this type of reaction from her. She thought Daiyu would be cursing Deming for behaving like that. 

She widened her eyes at Daiyu, "You are making fun of me. Where is your love for me? I shouldn't have told you all that".

Daiyu held her laughter and responded to the cute looking Lifen in front of her, " Awwww, my sweet little baby, I am not laughing at you, I am laughing at your love story. Isn't this what you have dreamt every day, a love story? Now it is at your door knocking for you."

"I am happy for you but... I am not sure whether your love story will be romantic or.... a comedy?" Daiyu chuckled and then burst into laughter again. 

"You...." Lifen snorted and picked a pillow from the bed to charge at Daiyu. 

Soon there were soft white feathers all over the room. The maids outside the room were now relaxed hearing their giggles inside.

After a tough pillow fight, Daiyu, and Lifen laid on the bed all exhausted. 

"I am missing Guang. She wouldn't be this insane like you after hearing the evil deeds of Deming. I am going to complain to her about you. When is she coming back?" Lifen asked. 

"Hahahahaha... I have called her before. She already knew half of the story. She was as stunned as me after listening but she didn't reply much. She just told me that she will be back by tomorrow evening. I was excited to see her reaction after knowing about your fanatical lover's deeds."

Daiyu again burst into laughter recalling the whole story.

At Wang palace, 

Deming was seated on the sofa with a poker face. He suddenly took out his phone and made a call, "Murphy, come to Wang Palace right now."

Murphy was half asleep when he received the call at midnight. He was used to this kind of behavior of Deming.

He still enquired, "At this right moment, Boss? It's already midnight. Can't we deal with it tomorrow?"

The reply was as expected, "No"

After 15 minutes,  

A white car entered the Wang Palace main gate and stopped before the entrance. 

Murphy stepped out of the car, dressed in his formal attire and there was no sign of sleepiness in his eyes. He directly went inside the hall and found Deming sitting at the home-bar section of the hall, with a glass of wine in his hand. 

He reached him and asked politely, "How can I help you, Boss?"

Few moments passed but there was no reply from him. Murphy squinted his eyes to get through his expressions but it didn't work as he was holding a poker face.

Few more moments passed like that, Deming was just calmly sipping his wine slowly.

Murphy thought in his heart, 'What the hell is wrong with him? He had called me at this hour just to show off his skills of sipping wine. Doesn't he already know? I have to work extra hard to cover up his childish acts which he did often and I need rest. After all, I'm human, not a devil-like him".

Slowly Deming turned his head to look at Murphy. 

Murphy was dazed, it was the first time he had seen Deming's eyes full of disappointment as if he had lost the greatest opportunity of his life. As if he has lost the most important battle of his life.

Murphy suddenly switched on his father mode and asked in a contented tone, "What happened today? Why are you like this? What made you so disappointed?"

But the reply he got from Deming made him freeze for a few seconds. He was stunned when he heard him say, "Murphy, What do you think about me? Just assume yourself a girl and tell me how would you reply if I wanted you to be my girlfriend if I want to date you?"

Murphy was dumbfounded. He didn't ever expected this type of question approaching him and that too from Deming.
