Itsuki was eating his burger while Zitong was drinking her Iced latte. "Itsuki" Zitong called Itsuki in a way that could melt a man's heart.
But to her disappointment, Itsuki didn't even look at her.
"What? I am busy."
"Did you do any plastic surgery?" Zitong asked in a innocent tone
"____" Itsuki
.
"No." Itsuki then kept eating. Plastic surgery existed in this world and was extremely popular among women.
"Really? Then why are you so handsome?" Zitong asked in dissatisfaction.
"____" Itsuki mouth twitched for a second.
"Then you must have also used plastic surgery to make yourself look this beautiful." Itsuki fired back at her.
Zitong glared at Itsuki. Itsuki by instinct didn't look at Zitong eyes otherwise he definitely would have trembled in front of her.
.
"I am 100 percent natural. Even my hair color is inherited from my... late mother." Zitong said the last part after a little pause.
Itsuki finally stopped eating and looked at Zitong and saw sadness in her eyes. "Your mother must have been a beautiful woman. I can tell since your hair color is so pretty." Itsuki complimented Zitong.
.
Zitong understood that Itsuki was trying to cheer her up by complimenting but which girl didn't liked to be complimented.
"Really, did you fall in love with this big sister?" Zitong asked with a smile.
Itsuki was not prepared for anything of this type of question.
Cough! Cough!
"I didn't and won't fall for you young miss." Itsuki already had some top girls on the list of his future dating candidate and he definitely didn't planned on adding her name on the list.
.
Hearing Itsuki's answer Zitong was happy that their relationship won't change but disappointed for some reason.
"You know I...
"Zitong stopped talking noticing her bodyguards coming towards them. The expression on Zitong was cold, she clearly didn't appreciate the current interruption.
.
"Young miss, Mr Itsuki, Our Boss would like to meet you two. Please came with us."Itsuki was drinking iced latte and thinking what he has gotten himself into. Itsuki looked at Zitong as if saying that, 'I didn't sign up for this.' But Zitong ignored Itsuki and replied.
"We are coming after paying the bill." The bodyguards nodded and then waited outside for their young miss.
.
"Why do I have to meet your dad? I didn't agree do go far that. I am leaving." Itsuki paid the bill to the waiter. Before Itsuki could walk away, Zitong grabbed Itsuki's hand.
"I know you didn't sign up for this. But please came with me otherwise my daddy will engage me with someone else. Just act as my boyfriend. I will tell daddy that we broke up after some time." Itsuki didn't had the heart to reject this beautiful girl's pleading look.
.
"I will go with you but you have to raise the money number. I want 25 million P$." Finn lazily said.
"Itsuki don't go to far. You just have to act as my boyfriend and that will take about 2 hours at most. Giving you 10 million P$ is a big thing." Even though Zitong family was very rich, that didn't mean Zitong doesn't know the value of Money. This was the first time Zitong was facing a situation where she was under pressure.
.
"Zitong, you should realize how much my service will benefit you in the future right. You won't be engaged to someone you don't like and you can have years to choose and find someone you like. So giving me 20 million to buy time for yourself is clearly beneficial for you. You are not suffering in any way." Itsuki didn't lacked money but he still asked Zitong for it. Itsuki wanted Zitong to know that he won't do everything for her. Itsuki is only doing this for one time.
.
Zitong thought for a moment and agreed with Itsuki. It's just as Itsuki said. Zitong will have enough time to take over her father's business and find a boyfriend. 'Boyfriend I am not that sure but if I don't mind someone like Itsuki but with better attitude. I absolutely hate his attitude.' Zitong thought looking at Itsuki.
"Stop cursing me in your heart and let's go Miss girlfriend." Itsuki took Zitong's right palm and walked out of the Pokémon center.
.
Zitong was little shy when Itsuki held her hand so casually. Zitong despite being so beautiful had little to no experience in having contact with males other than her father. Zitong father restricted Zitong and didn't allow Zitong to go public places without bodyguard. Even in her school life, her bodyguards kept boys away from her.
.
"Look our Goddess is holding hands with this bastard."
"I think this man is her boyfriend."
"Why? Zitong was my childhood crush."
"So Mr Xia daughter now has boyfriend. It's sad that my pathetic boy couldn't make Zitong fall for him."
"That bitch! Why god is so unfair. She has money, beautiful and handsome man."
"What a wonderful couple."
"It's sad to see our goddess claimed by someone else."
.
Itsuki and Zitong slowly walked outside under envious gazes of the crowd. Many boys was dying of jealousy since their city's goddess Zitong now had a boyfriend. The opposite could be said for girls. The girls had sour expression and cursed Zitong for her good luck. Not only she was born beautiful, her father richest man in Kanto and now her boyfriend was otherworldly handsome.
.
There was 6 black cars and a pink car between. All 7 cars looked very expensive especially the pink car which stands out because of its beauty. The bodyguardd opened the door for Zitong and Itsuki. Itsuki and Zitong entered the car and sat comfortably in the back.
'What is this fragrance? I think I have... I get it now this fragrance is her body Fragrance. No wonder.'
.
"This is the first time I have allowed someone in my car. I usually do not let anyone sit at back. I only let them sit on the passenger seat." Zitong was sitting on the left side and Itsuki was sitting on the right side. The driver was quitely driving the car. Itsuki almost felt there was no driver in the car.
"It's my honor"
.
"By the way, you are so famous. Everywhere you go there is always people who knows you." Itsuki asked looking at Zitong who was using her finger to play with her pink hair.
"It's all because of my father. Everyone in the City knows that my dad is the richest man in Kanto so they wants to keep good relationship with me to take advantage of our wealth." Zitong looked angry for the first time since Itsuki met her.
.
"Because of this reason, I never found any friend. Every friend I have is only being friend with me because they want my father' wealth. Those kind peoples are very good at licking my boot." Looking from her angry look, Itsuki can tell that Zitong has experienced this feeling many times.
"That's why when I met you or when we went to Sister Erika's gym, I don't told you about my identity."
.
"What made you think that I wouldn't change my behavior after knowing that you are rich."
Sigh!
Itsuki covered his face with his palms. "I should have asked more money. This might the biggest regret of my life.
" _____"Zitong
Zitong really wanted to punch this guy and throw him out of the car.
.
"Give me your bank account, I will transfer the money by today itself." Zitong said in anger. Zitong really thought Itsuki was different from those boot licking people but she was wrong.
'It looks I went too far with my acting or she is easily triggered my boot licking people' Itsuki knew it was his fault but he wasn't going to apologize and not take the money.
"Buy me stocks of a top manufacturing money in Kanto with that money. I am not interested in cash instead I am more interested in assets." Itsuki looked at the outside through the window.
.
'Did I misunderstood him or what? He clearly wants money but doesn't wants cash instead he wants stocks.' Zitong knew that buying stocks had many benefits. Zitong was trying to reevaluate Itsuki's character.
The car soon arrived in front of big Mansion which was surrounded by trees, making it look like a Mansion in a forest.
.
Neither Itsuki nor Zitong spoke in the car. Zitong was feeling little guilty as time passed and she wanted to break the ice between them several times but she found no question to break the ice.
Itsuki didn't expect his joke would be taken seriously by Zitong which made her misunderstand his character. One benefit of this misunderstanding is that it will keep Zitong away from Itsuki. But on the other hand the relationship between will get worse.
.
'I will explain things to her later.' Itsuki thought Zitong as a annoying girl who somehow became his friend, he should explain things to her.
"Young miss, Mr Itsuki, we have arrived." The car door opened and both Itsuki and Zitong stepped out of the car. Itsuki then took Zitong' s hand which made her look at him. Itsuki smiled slightly and looked at Zitong. "Let's go."
