After living like a stepson for over 20 years, it was only this time that Yuhi felt in mourning. In Chenle's house she lives like a queen, a maid is always there every time she needs and always respects her.
Actually it feels the same when being a young lady in the Naka family home or the Zhong family home, Yuhi is both respected and served by maids. In his own home he was more like a prisoner of war.
Chenle treated him very well, she gave Yuhi the car, she was also gentle and considerate to him. Chenle even gave him pocket money. The point is she's a typical dream husband. One thing alone that made Yuhi a little worried when with Chenle, the man was very dislikeful to argue.
"yeah.... " call her. Chenle had been waiting for Yuhi for 10 minutes in the bathroom but the girl did not come out.
"Well, what are you doing inside? Come out and accompany me for a drink.." Shouted Chenle again.
After her kiss scene with Chenle last night, the atmosphere between them became a little awkward.
Ah.. No, rather only Yuhi felt awkward while Chenle was ordinary.
Yuhi came out a little shy from the bathroom. This day he had indeed avoided Chenle, he had gone to campus with a driver and had a day of activities without Chenle. But the hope of a quiet night of sleeping first before Chenle came home was gone. The man arrived at the same time as he arrived from the campus.
"Can you drink?" Chenle raised her wine cup.
"Yes, I can." Yuhi takes pains to look ordinary. The girl sat on the sofa, taking some distance beside Chenle.
A baby pudle dog on Chenle's lap caught her attention.
"You got a dog?" Both Yuhi's eyes sparkled.
"Name Dusty." Answer Chenle. The man asks Yuhi to sit closer and places Dusty on Yuhi's lap.
"I thought you felt awkward after the kiss yesterday so I purposely brought Dusty to melt the atmosphere."
Oh God !! Chenle should not have to talk about it. Yuhi who had forgotten about the matter due to seeing Dusty, so remembered again. Zhong Chenle was very sensitive huh. He could understand even though Yuhi did not say it.
Chenle poured some wine for Yuhi and the girl accepted it. The man warns her before Yuhi starts chugging her first cup.
"It's kinda strong." Chenle.
"I'm pretty good at drinking alcohol." Answer Yuhi casually. He drank his first cup without difficulty.
Both are still equally aware, no one is affected by alcohol in the slightest.
"Chenle.." Yuhi opened her voice after a long moment of silence.
"Hm...?" Chenle.
"You said there's no point in marrying me, right. Why did you accept it?"
"You weren't offended by what I said at the time, were you??" Chenle asked back. Yuhi shook her head.
"No. Of course not. I just want to know your reason, that's all. "
They exchanged glances before Chenle started.
"I just feel sorry for you."
The answer Yuhi had expected. The girl laughed. Does he look so pitiful that he has to be pityed?
"Then...why do you want to trouble yourself to live with a pathetic person like me when you could have divorced me and lived with the one you love?"
Yuhi did not know why Chenle laughed hearing her question. The man was not laughing amusedly but laughing disdainfully.
"Love yes ..? " he was still laughing making his speech cut off.
"..... Unfortunately I haven't cared about love for a long time. For me as long as you are beautiful, your behavior is good and I feel comfortable that is enough. I don't need a love that can turn around to hurt me."
Yuhi hush. She thought maybe Chenle had some kind of trauma about a relationship so she could talk like that. Even though Yuhi herself did not receive much love from her family at least she still hoped to be loved.
"Never think of leaving me. Even if I had to lock you in a tower like rapunzel, I would."
Seriate....
