Unpredictable Marriage.

"You're a doctor who treats patients and sometimes prescribe drugs for them, so why are you scared of drugs?" Liu Longwei inquired.

"Being a doctor doesn't mean that you have to like drugs, am different. I take drugs if am seriously ill, but once I get myself (recover) a little, Oh my God! am so sorry for that drug because it wouldn't see the light of another day, because it will be sitting in the trash can the next second I recover". ​​

Sounds of laughter erupted from the room.

Liu Longwei laughed so hard that Chen Lihua joined him.

After laughing for a while, Chen Lihua said, "I never knew you could laugh so hard. I thought a business man like you would be so difficult to please, but look at you now with all smiles on your face".

Liu Longwei said with all smiles, "I've told you before that am not cold to my family and friends, and you are in the category of family, so am free with you. But am not as cold as the reporters said because am a business man. No matter how wealthy and powerful I am, I would never be unreasonable. I smile in public, but that's not how I really am. Once it comes down to business, I become serious because it's all about profit then".

"Well said" Chen Lihua said while applauding.

After that she continued, "Ophidophobia (fear of snakes) is very serious just like Acrophobia. I get goosebumps just from thinking and talking about snakes. Look at my skin now, you can see the goosebumps".

Chen Lihua said stretching out her hands towards Liu Longwei for him to see the goosebumps.

Liu Longwei felt the goosebumps by touching her arms and then withdrew his hands immediately as he knew Chen Lihua would be uncomfortable if his hands were to linger on her body for another second.

"I can feel it".

Chen Lihua took her hands back, "If I see a snake and it's far from me, I would become frightened and start screaming immediately. But if it's close to me, I would have shortness of breath and faint. I also feel uncomfortable and irritated when I see them on television or on paper, so that's it".

Liu Longwei sighed, "I can understand this particular phobia of yours because many people are afraid of snakes. Since I know all your phobias, I think I've taken another step into knowing more about you".

Chen Lihua had a thought while looking at Chen Lihua so, she decided to voice it out.

"Do you have any phobia?"

Liu Longwei thought for a while before replying, "No. Unless I've not come across it".

"OK. I think it's quite late and we should sleep or you'll be late for your flight tomorrow morning".

Liu Longwei wanted to tell her that even if he slept late, he would still wake up early as his body was used to waking up early, but he decided against it as it would lead to another discussion, and on a second thought, he wanted Chen Lihua to discover it on her own.

So he stood up, and went to switch the lights off while Chen Lihua set an alarm for 5am on her phone.

After switching the lights off, Liu Longwei lifted up the blanket and slid into it leaving the bedside lamp on.

Chen Lihua dropped her phone on the night stand and switched the side of her bed lamp off.

"Please, could you switch off the lamp, as I can't sleep with the lights on". Chen Lihua pleaded with Liu Longwei.

"No problem". And with that, he switched the lamp off and the entire room was immediately envoloped with darkness.

"Goodnight" Liu Longwei said.

"Goodnight" Chen Lihua replied.

Some minutes later, they two slept off and the room carried their evened breathing.
