The Beautiful Man of Zahra

GG Group Launching Brand

Invitational guests meet Hall Mall GG Group. The big businessmen and not a few artists who were invited to the Launching Brand owned by Jiang Xi. Lu Chen was also invited as the latest Brand Ambassador of Brand GG Group. Lu Chen entered the Lobby mall and was immediately crowded by his fans. Lu Chen performed so stunningly with his black suit stellan adding to his good looks, that it could make his female fans crazy.

After Lu Chen entered the lobby mall, shortly afterwards came the luxury car owned by Robby Lu who was also boarded by Amber. The two of them instantly became the center of attention because they had very handsome and stunning faces not inferior to Lu Chen. Journalists immediately capture the moment to the two people because of their appearance as a top artist only.

But one thing they don't know, is that one of them is a woman. Because seeing Robby Lu who immediately embraces Amber's waist and immediately Amber changed her macho attitude into a centile like a woman. Sontak made the people who were looking, staring at them with ambiguous gazes. Maybe in their minds there are two possibilities, they assume the two couples are same-sex couples or disappointed it turns out that the handsome Amber is just a woman. I don't know!.

Lu Chen who saw the arrival of his step-cousin came to him and immediately shook Robby's hand as well as Amber. The Amber who had just seen Lu Chenpun was immediately grounded with Lu Chen's good looks.

“Befit Zahra ‘cannot move on!.” The words just came out of Amber's mouth without Amber noticing.

Because Zahra often mentions the name Jason Lu, in each of her who often teases Zahra. Zahra always mentioned the name Jason Lu at that time, to stop the temptation of Amber who always betrothed to men she did not like. Zahra always confessed that she had a first love, Jason Lu. Although Amber did not know the look of Lu Chen, until finally Jessica also told about Zahra's closeness with Lu Chen.

Lu Chen who heard it also asked Amber to repeat her words. Amber immediately corrected her words and said that she was just the origin of speech. But in contrast to Robby who was very clear to hear Amber's words, and immediately made his face turn upset.

“Hai Kak Rob, how are you?. This who?. Your boyfriend?.” Lu Chen smiled his smile as if to insinuate Robby. Lu Chen and Robby were not familiar, but when they were little they looked very familiar. But because Lu Chen knew that Summer Lu, Robby's mommy was crazy about treasure and was after her family's fortune. Making Lu Chen limit himself from Robby, and assume that Robby is not far with his mommy.

“Not him my current best friend and partner.” In a flat tone answered Lu Chen's question and glanced at Amber hinting to introduce herself.

“Oh Hi, I'm Amber Robby's partner and Zahra's best friend. Robby's not my girlfriend, but he might be my best friend's girlfriend. Hahaha.” Amber said sinlessly towards Lu Chen, because Amber was not happy with Lu Chen's attitude as if underestimating his friend Robby.

“Ok, well I'll step down first then. Nice to meet you guys!.” Suddenly Lu Chen threw his face out from before the two of them, as if he could not accept Amber's words at that moment.

On the other side of Zahra, Jessica and her assistant are busy with models on the back stage. The three of them are struggling to match the models to perform optimally on the catwalk later. When they were busy, Robby and Amber approached them.

Amber immediately embraced her two best friends warmly, as if a long time did not meet when yesterday they had just spent the night together in the mansion. But they forget that there is a handsome man who is forgotten by them, Robby.

Zahra and Robby look awkward when they want to greet each other, without thinking twice Robby immediately grabbed Zahra's hand and shook it. Jessica clearly saw the hopeful gaze that was emitted by Robby towards Zahra, visible from Robby's hands that seemed to not want to escape from Zahra. But the gaze was different from Zahra, Jessica saw Zahra did not like Robby as if she wanted to immediately dodge.

Jessica who saw that also immediately wanted to stop the hand of Robby to Zahra. But immediately a hand releases Robby's hand. That person was Lu Chen, who had suddenly come closer towards Robby and Zahra. Lu Chen looked unhappy, when Zahra was approached by his step-cousin, immediately released Robby's hand from Zahra's hand.

At that moment Lu Chen and Robby were looking at each other with intimidating gazes. Jessica and Amber saw it, as if there was a cold war between the two. And Zahra who was in the midst of their cold war instantly pulled Lu Chen's hand and moved away from Robby.

“Sorry everything I have a moment's business with him. Amber, can you replace me to finish my work?.” Zahra asked her friends to help her finish the job while she finished her business with Lu Chen. He actually felt he had no business with her.

Zahra pulled Lu Chen up to the Wardrobe warehouse at the end of the backstage.

“Do you want to meet me?.” Zahra started a conversation with Lu Chen.

“You collect your promise to me.” Lu Chen confirmed that he was charging an answer about his call to date back then.

“What answer do you want right now? I honestly feel like you're just kidding, because I don't like being played with. And I hate it.” Zahra asserted in each of his words that he did not want to be played by a man.

Lu Chen drew closer to Zahra, so the two beads looked at each other in a very close distance.

“Since when have I joked about something important like this?. Do you know what I want right now?. And I'm sure you have the same feelings as me?.” Lu Chen assured Zahra that he was not messing with her words.

“I still need time, because it's too sudden and I don't have time to think about it at times like this. You know what I mean?. Anyway how do you know about my feelings?.” Zahra spoke to Lu Chen without daring to stare towards Lu Chen. It made Lu Chen even more confident in his guess.

“Aduhhh nih heart 'can not compromise what?.” Inner Zahra grumbled against her heart that was not lying at this moment. For it is clear that Zahra's words and heart are at present at odds.

“What do I need to prove?.” Lu Chen brought his lips closer to Zahra's, but Zahra dodged and threw her face in the opposite direction.

“I just need time for that. I beg you to understand, do not continue to force me because I feel uncomfortable.” Zahra directly distanced Lu Chen's body from him and walked towards the direction of the door. As Zahra began to move away Lu Chen's hand pulled Zahra's hand.

“I'll be waiting for you, but please don't take too long because I'm not the one who has a lot of time. You know right?.” Lu Chen confirmed to Zahra that he was not the one who had much time to wait.

Zahra passed from before Lu Chen with a face that was hard to decipher. And Lu Chen looked at Zahra who left leaving expectantly.

In the lobby, Jiang Xi who came together to three of his assistants sauntered into the mall hall, to check the work of his men. As soon as he headed to the backstage area, Jiang Xi found Zahra coming out of the wardrobe room. However Zahra was unaware of the arrival from Jiang xi back then, before how long Jiang Xi saw Lu Chen also coming out of the same room as Zahra.

“Lu!.” Jiang Xi called out to her son from a distance.

Lu Chen reflexively turned his head towards the back, looking for a voice that he believed was his mommy Jiang Xi's voice. Lu Chen looked at his mommy with a feeling of longing as well as hate.

“During not meeting? How are you, Lu?. Don't you miss me?.” Jiang Xi greeted and approached her son who had not met for two years.  He hugged with longing for his son.

But in contrast to Lu Chen, Lu Chen let go of his mommy's warm embrace violently. With Jiang Xi's attitude that seemed to not care about the mere child of his puppet, made Lu Chen assume that his mother had abandoned him. After the divorce of her parents, Lu Chen went with her mommy to China in hopes of forgetting her story with her ex-husband while in Indonesia. But what happened was that Jiang Xi was instead busy with her work and forgot about Lu Chen who at that time needed the affection of her mommy.

The teenage Lu Chen who needed the support of the old man beside him was instead close to his uncle Aaron Lu. Aaron was always there when Lu Chen needed moral support, while Jiang Xi as his mother only gave material support. Lu Chen's feeling of respect for his mommy was already gone, just like Jiang Xi's treatment for these ten years had been to him.

“You remember coming home? I thought you forgot you had a child?.” Lu Chen looked at Jiang Xi's face hatefully.

“Did you still have nightmares Lu?. Why does your face look wrinkled?.” Jiang Xi looked under Lu Chen's eyes a little bit with eye bags. Jiang Xi showed a worried look to her son. She gently stroked the face of her beloved child, but the treatment was immediately suppressed by Lu Chen.

“What cares about you? Assume I don't exist as usual.” Lu Chen immediately left Jiang Xi with an annoyed face. He really did not expect to meet his mommy here, even though the goal was only to meet Zahra alone, this made his mood worse.

Jiang Xi who saw the rejection of her son the umpteenth time, made her tears fall involuntarily. She knows that as a mother, she is not a good mother. But there is no harm as a mother, she just wants to be considered by her child regardless of his treatment for ten years.
