Shuji and Lixue find out that his father left first.
"Dad left early," Shuji said as he drank coffee and chewed bread.
Lixue just listened to what Shuji said and left without notice. Lixue looked up when she heard his voice and read what Shuji said and then left it.
"Why did my feelings for my girlfriend change when I met you?" Shuji said making Lixue stop at what she heard.
Lixue stopped when she heard another question so she turned to see Shuji staring at her.
"Whatever you feel about me, make sure you have a woman to hurt first, Shuji, how old have you and Erika been?" Lixue asked as she faced Shuji again.
"We've been in a relationship for two years now, I can't understand myself I love Erika so much, but when I met you, my feelings for her suddenly changed," Shuji said as he approached Lixue and looked her in the eye.
"If you love her, what do you feel for me? That's just admiration you feel now." Lixue said as she walked away and went up the stairs to her room.
Lixue just leaned back in the door and she held her chest as my heartbeat accelerated.
"This is the beginning of my breaking the prophecy, that he will like me on his own?" Lixue noted to herself as she lowered her hand.
Lixue had taken a bath in the bathroom while Shuji was lying on the bed in the other room. He felt his heart pound after he told Lixue what he wanted to say.
"Why? It's wrong, I have a girlfriend!" Shuji shouted and ruffled his hair before covering his face.
Shuji thinks of the two women who make up his mind today. Shuji also took a shower in his bathroom when he finished dressing and left the room, he stepped back when Lixue left his room with him.
"I'll forget what you told me but if you're sure it's true tell me again when you and Erika are separated," Lixue said hurriedly walking down the stairs and leaving the house immediately getting into the car before driving away.
Shuji didn't immediately react to what Lixue said. When his mind returned to reality Lixue was no longer in front of him. He hurried down the stairs and went out of their house. He looked in the garage and Lixue's car was gone so Shuji just blinked before he got into his car and drove fast going to Sakura Modeling Agency.
"Darling, you came late, you and Lixue just followed each other," Erika said to her boyfriend, she kissed him on the lips after Shuji got out of the car.
"She left our house first," Shuji said to his girlfriend as they walked inside the agency.
Erika and Shuji see Hyo, Akatsuki, and Lixue talking outside their dressing room. Shuji stopped when he felt he shouldn't feel it because he had a girlfriend.
"There you are," Akatsuki called to his two friends.
"I waited for Shuji outside, you didn't come here together," Erika said as she looked at Lixue.
"I finished the girl's routine in my room first, so I left right away," Lixue answered, she just smiled.
"Oh!" Akatsuki and Hyo said as they looked after Lixue.
The photographer called them and the stylist called Erika and Shuji to fix them.
"Couple of the month with Akatsuki, Lixue, do your next photoshoot here." the photographer instructed Akatsuki and Lixue as they both looked at each other before laughing.
Their fellow co-models also just laughed.
"What the happening?" Erika asked and her brow furrowed, Shuji was behind her looking at the models.
"The photographer said that aside from the two of you, Lixue and Akatsuki are also a couple here." the gay manager happily answered.
"You guys right away? It's fast." Erika said as she looked at her friend and Lixue.
"As a loveteam, not as a real couple," Lixue answered and everyone was silent.
"It's true, she said not as a real couple I was just going to court her." Akatsuki and everyone stared at him.
"You just met her and you're going to date her? Less than a month is fast." Erika replied to her friend.
"That's why I'm courting her so I can get to know her and she can get to know me," Akatsuki replied to his friend.
"That's true, couz, but Lixue said to Kuya Akatsuki shouldn't do it now when they have free time," Hyo replied to his cousin.
Shuji noticed that Lixue looked at them and she immediately looked away.
The photographer called Shuji and her girlfriend Erika as well as models who had not been photographed.
After a few hours
The manager invited all the models to eat at a restaurant. All models agreed, except the photographer and the entire staff of Sakura Modeling Agency did not join them.
"I'm in a good mood today." the gay manager happily said to everyone.
They left the agency and boarded their respective cars except for another model that didn't have a car yet Akatsuki and Hyo took it in their car.
"Good then! Ma'am and Sir." greeted by waitresses and waiters.
"This is our menu where special foods and other classic foods can be found." the waitress approached after bringing them to a long table.
Lixue looked around and her companions just shook their heads when they saw it.
"Are you okay, Lixue?" the gay manager commented to Lixue.
"It's fine-" Lixue's answer was interrupted when someone approached their table.
"Oh! My... you are back, Meixiu came to my house the other day she said she couldn't believe you were here." a tall man who didn't care about the people he was talking to.
"Eh..thanks!" Lixue said as she shook her head before coming over to kiss him.
Everyone was surprised at what the tall man did.
"Who are they? Hello, welcome to my restaurant." the tall man approached the companions of his former friend.
"There are my new friends, your restaurant has changed a lot...last time I went it was not like this," Lixue said to her former friend who was her old friend when she hadn't changed.
"Eh..I bought the land next to me and raised him too." the tall man said to Lixue as the companions looked at the two of them.
Shuji looked at the tall man and Lixue who were just talking.
"I-" the waitress and waiter cut off when their boss let them go.
"Take their food to the VIP room and they will move places, Lady Chen you should have said you know me, well I came out of my office to inquire about the people eating in the restaurant and I saw you." the tall man said Lixue's companions were surprised to hear.
Lixue was slapped on the forehead when the person he was talking to slipped, she was hiding who she was because the world is small they will meet and they will actually meet.
"Lady Chen?" everyone said upon hearing what the tall man said.
"Ops! Is it still not? Sorry, I was talking, I missed you, but you don't want to use your daddy's last name anymore." the tall man said bowing suddenly in front of Lixue as he approached.
"All right!" Lixue replied as she made her old friend stand up.
"Your name is Leatrice, isn't it? Lady Chen?" the gay manager said as he looked at Lixue.
"Lady Chen' is what those who know her family call her, not her name is the lady and-" the tall man interrupted when he looked at Lixue and she glared at him.
"I'm the daughter of a tycoon man in China, but I'm not the rich one, my daddy just calls me Lady Chen," Lixue replied immediately, standing up from the chair and patting her former friend on the shoulder, who bowed carefully without babbling about her other personality.
"I'm sorry, I just really missed you." the tall man answered Lixue.
They all stood up to move to the restaurant's VIP room. They saw that the food they ordered was ready on the table.
"You keep a lot of secrets and you're such a mysterious person," Shuji said as he followed Lixue with his gaze.
"Your food is free here at my restaurant now." the tall man said happily and Lixue responded.
"Use dad's black card, you know it's automatic," Lixue answered.
"Maybe shushu will be mad at me," the tall man answered.
(Uncle)
Everyone couldn't answer what Lixue's former said.
"We'll still pay for what we ate, you know me," Lixue said.
"Yes! If you don't want anything for free, I'm going back to the office, come see me, just ask the waiter, they'll show you my office, let's talk." the tall man replied before he left.
"You know him?" Hyo said to Lixue when she turned to look at him.
Lixue just smiled before she and the others ate. After they ate they collected their money before calling the waiter and giving him the money to pay for what they ate. Shuji and Lixue looked at each other, and Akatsuki looked at Lixue before going inside her car. Erika looked at Lixue before she got into her boyfriend's car.
'I still have a lot to discover from you, -Leatrice.' Shuji said after looking back at Lixue as he immediately got into the car and drove his girlfriend to her condo.
Shuji kissed his girlfriend on the lips before getting out of his car. Shuji went home thinking deeply that he got home safely, he went straight to his room and changed his clothes. He immediately lay down to sleep and even before he closed his eyes he saw Lixue smiling at him in his mind.
'What else are you hiding from me about your personality?' Shuji said in his mind, why is Lixue bothering him since she came into his father's life.
