Dingding's P.O.V.

Ruwei was right when he said his massages were relaxing. I'm so relaxed that I could literally sleep forever. He laid me down on the couch after my shoulder massage. He told me to begin sleeping as he began massaging my arms and wrists.

He was now sitting on the ground next to me as I began fluttering my eyelids. I've never felt so relaxed in my entire lifetime. Slowly, I drifted to sleep. About an hour or so later, I woke up. I looked to my right and saw Ruwei asleep with his head resting on my arm.

That's why I woke up because my arm was suffering from a lack of oxygen cause his head was cutting off my blood circulation. I swear he's going to be the end of me one day. But he looked so peaceful. I looked at him closer and realized how good looking he is.

I guess I'm always trying to get away from him, I never really stared into his eyes or observed his facial features. No wonder he has so many fans, he truly is one handsome man.

My eyes widened when his eyes suddenly opened. But before I could jerk my head back, he grabbed onto me and suddenly I came flying off of the couch. This jerk, and to say I was thinking nicely about him for once. I flew off the couch and landed directly on top of him.

Now he was lying flat on the ground and I was laying on top of him, his hands were resting on my back. Oh my goodness, my face turned beet red as I've never been in this kind of position with anyone before. After a little while, I finally snapped back to reality.

I gave his chest a hard punch as I quickly got off of him. I grabbed onto my bag and ran out of my hotel room. I don't know why I'm acting like this, I shouldn't act this weirded out since we are a married couple, but man my heart is beating so fast.

"Ding, where are you going?" Liam asked as he grabbed onto my arm. I was shaking and out of breath, "Did something happen?" He asked as I took a deep breath, "I want Ruwei out if he continues following me I'm going to sue him!" I yelled.

"Calm down, what happened? Sit down." He said as he shoved me into one of the chairs. "I was taking my nap and I was going to get up but he gave me a jerk so I fell on top of him on the ground," I said as I covered my face, but Liam just started laughing.

"Looks like Ruwei really is trying hard." My jaw dropped as I stood up and kicked him, "Whose side are you on??" I yelled as he put his hands up, "Of course I will always be on your side, but Ding, seriously, would it kill you to give the poor guy a chance? Look how hard he's trying."

I can't believe this is happening. I shook my head and just as I was about to storm away again, he grabbed my wrist again. "Ding, seriously, I know you're afraid to love because you're afraid it will get in the way of your career, but look at everyone out there, it's not too hard to balance love and a career. I know that you want a loving husband, you have one now, don't be afraid to give him a chance. I can tell that he really does love you." Liam said sincerely.

"Love takes too much time, Liam, I can't give him love because I don't want to fall too deep." I said sadly, "I know, but how will you know if you don't try, right?" He asked I sighed. Deep down, I know he's right. Every woman wants love to some extent.

"Listen to my advice, give him a chance, really." He said before letting go of me. "Trust me, I'm a man, I can tell that he really does love you. It wouldn't hurt to talk to him." He said as I nodded. He's right, maybe I'm a little too afraid of risking my career.

But he also does have a point, there are so many people out there who balance love and their careers so well, why can't I be one of them? I pulled out my phone and texted Ruwei to meet me in my hotel room in two hours, and that I needed to talk to him.
