1001 Ways to Become the Greatest

Be shielded

"No point. Let's go." Akira's answer is clearly unwilling to give the truth, and before Rexy asks any further, she pulls Rexy's arm out.

This morning, the street in front of Akira's shop was crowded with vehicles, and it didn't take long to get a taxi.

Along the way, Akira always gives a mysterious to her and never says their purpose. I don't know what happened today, even Rexy was not given time to ask.

In the taxi, Akira did not speak either, all the time he was busy tidying up his hair, face and clothes. This seems to indicate if they will meet an important person.

From the beginning, Rexy had already guessed the direction of their destination, and when he arrived in front of a luxurious restaurant, Rexy's guess was finally getting stronger.

Exactly, when he entered and saw the two people they had come to, Rexy finally felt confident in his guess.

Moreover, when he saw that one middle-aged woman had almost the same face as Akira.

This, didn't this invite him to meet with the in-laws?

Although not yet mentally ready, and the first time to meet the mother of a woman, this is not how much. What really makes Rexy even more headache is, the man next to Akira's mother.

From his neat dress style, as well as his polite style, and his handsome face, is not he the man Akira will marry.

The request that Akira asks, and every event after event on the way, Akira intends to make himself a shield, right?

She initially thought Akira was asking her to confront someone or people who were chasing her. Rexy had already anticipated this, and put out 1000 points for the fighting technique.

But, it's all for nothing! Rexy is helpless!

Sitting on the bench without greeting, Rexy's body felt limp, and less excited.

This disrespectful Rexy style was automatically seen by Akira's mother, and the young man she was carrying.

To the rich-looking young man giving a contemptuous and disgusted look to Rexy.

While Akira's mother, who saw Rexy's behavior like this, began to frown and turned to her daughter, "Kira, who are you carrying."

Akira's mother doesn't ask using the words "He" or "Man" which suggests that she doesn't look at Rexy at all.

Or you could say, Akira's mother did not consider Rexy a human, and preferred to categorize as an item.

Because, in his view, this man was younger than Akira. Not only that, his face that does not match the clothes worn, he considers Rexy just a shame. Who clings and lives by Akira's efforts.

Akira himself, he knows the meaning of his mother, but he does not show it on the surface so as not to humiliate Rexy, and introduces, "Mother, this is Rexy, my boyfriend. Rexy, this is my mother Sona. While he was my childhood friend, Drian!"

"What?"

After Akira finished his words, his mother and Rexy asked simultaneously.

After that, the two people looked at each other, and Sona asked first, "You, are you my daughter's boyfriend?"

Since Rexy was an honest person, she intended to shake her head, and be honest. But, before he did, he felt a pain in his thigh.

Oh, my God, it seems I have to obey his wishes.

Inevitably Rexy had to smile, and nodded, "Right, I am Kira's boyfriend."

"Well, are you kidding me?" Sona's mother did not believe it, and asked the two people in front of her.

"Mother, everything is right. Back then, we met because of an unexpected event, and for a year together, we finally decided to date. Moreover, Rexy is also a good man." This time it was Akira who spoke, and took control.

"Kira, it's okay not enough in a relationship, right? I'm also a good guy, and well-established, but why don't you ever accept me?" Drian who had been silent this time spoke.

Akira who smiled gently at his mother turned to look at Drian next to her. However, Akira's smile upon seeing her was no longer a gentle smile, it was just a smile of politeness.

"Sorry, Drian. I've never considered you more than a friend, nor now."

Hearing this rejection directly, Drian seemed to not feel sad at all, and even smiled.

"I know that. All these years I've thought of you, even when you parted with your husband, I've been waiting for you. Kira, what's my weakness?"

Akira's smile was still polite, and replied, "There's nothing wrong with you. If you are looking for another woman, there will be many who will accept you. But I'm sorry, I can't accept you, because I don't love you."

Upon hearing this, Drian stopped, and felt helpless. He looked next to her, and asked Sona for help.

Sona's mother understood Drian's intentions, and smiled.

Then, he looked at Rexy for some time, then at Akira before asking, "You know Kira? It's 2010, the year that jobs and living standards are up from previous years. Love, can love last forever? Or a well-being that can last forever?"

"I see what Mama means," Akira nodded, and smiled calmly again, "Love cannot guarantee the happiness of the household, but from the love of the household will always be beautiful, right?"

"Huh.." Sona's mother, and Drian immediately snorted disapprovingly of Akira's words.

"Love again and love! Did you learn from your previous experience? What happened to your love for your ex-husband? How is he now? Didn't he go with another woman?"

These words, seemed to open Akira long ago, and made the smile on his face slacken.

But, her mother did not care and continued to speak, "I used to approve of you getting married even though your ex is a common man. Now what? After five years of marriage, and the poor man became a rich man, his outlook became high, and chose to go with a younger and beautiful woman."

"Have you forgotten that, Akira! I tried to stop you back then, but you never heard of it. Now you know the poor man's rot, right?"

"Have you never learned? Do you still want to marry a poor man, and can't make money?"

"He," Sona's mother loudly pointed at Rexy, "He's also a poor man! Look at the clothes he's wearing! Compared to the current price of food, was he worth to eat it? No, is he worth standing here, right now? You, if you still don't obey your mother's will..."

"Enough!"

Rexy, who from beginning to end did not speak could not stand it anymore, and stopped Sona's cruel words to Akira.
