The fashion show will be ending soon. The days had gone by fast for Yu Qiao. He was grumpy and in a terrible mood that even poor Joey needs to walk on thin ice around him.

Yu Qiao wanted to feel guilty for being a bastard for acting out his frustration to his employees. He almost snapped at the model that was trying to flirt with him after he refused multiple times.

It was not their fault that Mo Bai left the hotel room and he was not satisfied with what he had tasted.

At first, he confused and kept on trying to place a finger on what occurred to him the night before.

He was with an enchanting fairy. Yes. And, she must have enchanted him, he thought to himself.

She is a sorceress. How could she? Yu Qiao thought she was having a good time as he was. Yu Qiao could still remember as Mo Bai bit her lip as he let her have his fill until everything darkened, then nothing.

'So, what happened next?' Yu Qiao tried to recall and was surprised. He could not remember anything, and just then he looked over and saw a cheque leaf, neatly kept, with a note beneath it. He reached for it and saw it was the very cheque he had given to Joey to give to Mo Bai.

That morning, he called Joey to come to his room immediately. His assistant had woken up with a hangover, head ached just like him, and Yu Qiao couldn't tell if it is from the sleep or the thought after the rest.

When Joey was in his room, "Did you give Mo Bai the cheque I gave to you?" he asked fuming.

"Yes," Joel replied groggily, sounding confused to his boss's tone of voice.

"Did she tell you about not being able to use cheques or something?" he asked again.

"Not the least," Joey replied after recalling the events.

Yu Qiao quickly ran to his bag and checked for any missing items or money. His pocket seemed intact, but all the cash was gone.

"Please get her manager on the phone," he barked. He doesn't always get as furious as this. He was fuming for not being able to enjoy the night before. 'What the hell happened?'

Joey tried to reach Mo Bai's manager but was replied by a strange voice on the phone – it turned out to be hotel staff. Joey couldn't tell Yu Qiao about it. He would be more furious.

How could he not have gotten her exact details?

Joey of a sound sleep than attending to his boss's personal affairs, however, he could get fired anytime soon.

Yu Qiao was eager to get the response and got upset when he learned that it was the wrong line.

"Boss, the fashion week was still not over, and we could still see her around." Joey appeased. He knew Mark well. He is not a fan of incompetence.

How would he have known he should pay closer attention to this model?

Except that, maybe, his boss paid more to be with her. Who wouldn't pay that much for a model that enchanting?

Joey didn't think it was necessary. Previously, Yu Qiao had been with women and didn't care if they came from the moon or Mars. This lady must have enchanted him. Joey stayed away in his room, praying he does not lose his job.

Thankfully Joey was correct. Mo Bai was still part of the show. Yu Qiao was able to see and talk to her regarding the other night.

He was initially confused, but when Yu Qiao learned the real reason why she left, he felt so embarrassed. More so when she offered to return the money.

Why? Cause he fvcking fell asleep before going on third base!

The sad part, Mo Bai refused further his advances. Another disappointing thing was that, whenever he ask her why, she would still blatantly answer, reminding him of his bedroom failure. 'It hurts when a man fell asleep on you. Not that I want to offend you or something...' She said with an apologetic smile on her face.

Yu Qiao could not accept it! He felt like a kid that was allowed to taste candy for the first time, but was not allowed to do so again!

On the last day of the show, Yu Qiao could hardly get enough sleep. It was past seven when he was settled and was ready for breakfast. He called room services and made an order. Yu Qiao still couldn't stop thinking about that night.

'Damn it! That was so embarrassing!' Yu Qiao would not give up though and only hope to make it better next time.

Yu Qiao tried to get close to Mo Bai these past few days by giving her gifts and occasionally checking her at the dressing room personally. It did not even matter that he gets strange looks from the other model for doing so. Also, the organizer noticed his strange behavior towards Mo Bai.

There was a time when Joey even warned him to tone it down. Because regardless of what he says or does, in the end, he was still a married man.

'No, not really. The contract states five years, and it was way past that.' Yu Qiao thought to himself as he considered finalizing his divorce, which he eventually did.

With that in mind, Yu Qiao reached out for his phone and quickly typed an email. He typed thus:

Lihua,

How are you? I would need your cooperation on our divorce papers just like what we have agreed on five years ago.

Let me know where to send them over. We can also talk about the kid's custody personally if you are willing to give time.

I will be waiting.

Regards,

Qiao

With a deep sigh, he sent her the mail. He did not expect a reply that day. Actually, he would not be awaiting an answer anytime soon, just like the usual. It was unfair for him to ask divorce because he wanted to pursue someone else. 

However, it was inevitable, as he could not continue waiting for someone who was not willing to work things out with him or with the kids. They hardly knew anything about each other.

For him, Mo Lihua was just like a friend that has other important priorities. Heck, he does not even know what she was up to. She would occasionally send money for the Mo company investments, and it was also not a very small amount.

'Right, it was her money that she used to save the Yu Corp.' He remembered and also grateful. For him, her freedom from marriage could be a blessing as well.

Yu Qiao only hopes that there would be no problem with the divorce process. He also hoped that his boys would understand enough and not make a fuss out of it.

After this time, Yu Qiao was more at ease. He did not care as he blatantly ogles at her whenever she walked down the runway. He still felt the possessiveness for her but knew that he needed to bid his time and be patient.

Then the event for the last day of the fashion week started. He would do all that he can get close to Mo Bai as it was his last chance, before going home.
