Chang woke up early that Saturday morning with the thought of the girl from the previous night in his head. He couldn't understand why so headed out for a morning jog before heading to the gym for a weight lifting session.
Even still, she lingered in the back of his mind. He met up with two of his friends for a late lunch. One of them was Wang Xuan and the other was Xia Huanting. Yes. Xia Huanting is Xia Biming's brother. Wang Xuan was the heir to Wang Tech Company. And well, you already know Xia Huanting.
"Bro, let's hang out tonight. We haven't done anything fun since you've been back Chang." Wang Xuan whined.
"What do you mean? We always hang out. We hang out so much I'm almost sick of seeing your faces." Chang retorted back.
"But those are all business meetings. I mean like have some fun! We should go to a club!" Wang Xuan said excitedly!
Just then Huanting's phone rang. "Hello, dad what's up?"
"Son come to the company as soon as you can and help me sort out this business contract we're trying to get. It's too complicated for me. And then I'll have to bother you for help with planning your sister's party. She mustn't do anything!" Father Xia begged him.
"Alright dad, give me a few minutes and I'll come help you. But you owe me two weeks vacation!" Xia Huanting teased his own father.
"Hey you rascal! I'll give you a whole month off when you get married! Now come on!" Father Xia chuckled the entire time and then they hung up.
"Bro, your family is so cute and warm. My dad always yells at me when I do something wrong." Wang Xuan pouted and sighed.
"That's because you need to train more and then your dad will stop worrying about you! Don't let him do everything by himself. He's getting old." Huanting ruffled Xuan's hair. He then got up to head out. "Alright well you two enjoy tonight without me. I'll be busy planning my little princess's birthday party. Drink for me!" He then ran out the door.
"What do you think Chang? You haven't been to a club since you came back two years ago. What do you say? Please please please pleeaassseee??" Wang Xuan begged and begged him.
"Hahah alright alright. You pick the club and I'll meet you there. I have to meet with my dad and grandparents so I'll be late. I'll see you at 9." Chang gave in and made plans with Wang Xuan to have some fun.
When Chang got to his family's mansion, he was greeted by the old housekeeper. The housekeeper informed him that everyone was in the study waiting for him.
He made his way up and into the study. They really were all here, his father, grandfather, and grandmother. Only his younger sister was missing.
Chang's real name is Xue Changmin. He is the CEO of Xue Investments. The largest investment company in all of Asia. The company started with his great-grandfather and was now under his control since he came back from training two years ago. His father, Xue Haochen was nearly just an older version of him with more rugged features. Beside his dad was his grandpa Xue Chun Lei and his grandma Wang Lingfei.
"You all called for me?" questioned Chang.
Grandfather was the first to speak in his hoarse voice, "Yes, I'm going to be frank. You're already 27. Don't you think you should consider getting married and producing some offspring for us to play with? We're so lonely at home all day while you run the company."
"Sweetie, we don't want to pressure you. We just want to remind you how important it is. And how much joy it will bring!" His grandmother also chimed in while his father stayed silent.
Chang coughed to show how uncomfortable he was, "Um, well I met a cute girl last night... I don't remember her name though. But tonight I'm going out with Wang Xuan. He might be able to help me!"
"How can he help you? He's not a girl! Wait... are you... into men?" his grandfather asked nervously.
"Pfftttt! Hahahaha! Grandpa! How can you ask if I'm gay? I don't have an issue with gays but I'm not into men. I like women, I just haven't found one I like yet." he answered honestly.
"Alright. Alright. I understand. Hang on, you met a girl last night? Was she pretty?" Grandfather Xue asked happily. He was really excited just by the possibility of getting a granddaughter-in-law soon.
"Yeah but we only passed by each other, I don't know if I can meet her again." he secretly spun this white lie a little more than he wanted to.
Father Xue finally spoke up, "Okay then. We won't push you, just keep your options open. She doesn't need to come from a rich background, although that would be nice. She just needs to have good characteristics and a good heart. I don't think we need to spend any more time talking about this."
And with that, they wrapped up their conversation on a happy note and Chang made his way to his own Villa to change into formidable attire for the night.
He reemerged in a sharp fitted navy suit with a gray dress shirt on underneath. He had the top few buttons undone, showing off his lightly tanned skin and taut muscles. His black leather shoes only elongated his long legs making his height of 184 cm seem taller.
He reached the Club a little before 9 and found his way to the VIP area where Wang Xuan was already waiting for him with other friends of his that had girls on their laps.
"Chang Bro! You made it! Let's get this party started! There's a lot of hot babes on the dance floor tonight. But first we need to loosen up!" Wang Xuan was obviously more excited about this than Xue Changmin was. But they still drank together nonetheless.
A whole bottle of fine aged whiskey downed between the two of them and they were just starting to warm up. Chang took his suit jacket off and his muscles were begging to pop out of his shirt.
