Raiden was wondering about his son's behavior when he saw him leaning against the wall and smoking a cigarette.
"When did you go back to smoking?" Raiden approaches his son when he just wakes up.
"I woke up early, I didn't want to have breakfast yet so I thought I'd smoke first," Shuji said to his father and he smoked a cigarette.
"Are you deep in thought and like that, son?" Raiden asked his son, but he didn't come close so as not to make him suffer from cough.
"Nothing, Pa are you handsome, when you are like me and you passed it on to me," Shuji told his father he avoided the topic he wanted to ask him and just laughed.
"You're different from me, son, yes I look like you, but you're not the same as you, son," Raiden replied with a smile to his son, patting him on the shoulder afterward.
Shuji knows why he feels this way because he has no right and he has a girlfriend. Shuji returned to his room to take a shower after leaving the house without saying goodbye to his father, he went to his girlfriend's condo.
When Shuji arrived, he parked the car carefully before he got off and went inside. Shuji entered the elevator and pressed the floor number where his girlfriend's condo was.
When the elevator stopped, Shuji immediately walked and stopped in front of his girlfriend's condo, he pressed the passcode of the door before he opened it, Shuji entered and went to his girlfriend's room.
Shuji saw his girlfriend still lying down and he laid her on the bed and hugged her.
"Darling.." a voice called from Shuji's ear, he opened his eyes and smiled when he saw his girlfriend's face.
"Hmm..morning, darling." Shuji greeted in a hoarse voice.
"You came here this morning to pick me up you missed me so much, especially me.." Erika whispered to her boyfriend and kissed him on the forehead.
"If only we could not go in now but we can't," Shuji answered weakly as he hugged his girlfriend even more.
"Yes, yes..before you get busy, can I spend the whole night with you?" Erika asked softly to her boyfriend as she hugged him too.
"Yes, I will find a way, darling for us to be together," Shuji replied with a smile to his girlfriend as they both stood up and took off their clothes before entering the bathroom.
When entering the bathroom, Shuji and Erika's muttering voices could be heard inside the bathroom and not the rushing water.
On the other hand, Lixue leaned against the door when she realized that Shuji was no longer at home.
'Think about your mission, Lixue Chen, and not him or your feelings.' Lixue said in her mind she was surprised to hear her father's voice.
"Lixue, you can love him not because of your mistake but because of your love for him," Jiang said to his daughter from his mind.
"Dad, it hurts..even though I have no right," Lixue told her father as she sat on the floor.
"It's hard and painful but I know you won't give up, Lixue, just like you told me you'll find Mikaelle because you know she's alive and we've buried other corpses besides your mommy, until now you're still doing it, Lixue," Jiang replied to his daughter, Lixue was silent and thinking about something.
"Dad, even though I don't accept your remarriage, I know you have a reason and you're right, dad we won't give up just, you with mommy, and then I'm with Mika," Lixue told her father that even though her stepmom is different, she knows that her father is still looking for her mommy.
Her father's voice disappeared from Lixue's mind and she stood up afterward.
"My father was right," Lixue said to herself.
Lixue took a shower and joined her godfather Raiden for breakfast. Then, as soon as Lixue left, she used the car that her parents gave her. While Lixue was driving, she was stopped by a heavy crash on top of the car.
"Damn!" Lixue shouted in annoyance and got out of the car, looking at the person who fell on top of her car.
She saw his bodyguard/friend bent down and looked around to see if anyone was watching.
"Ikh bin sapreyzd ir nito do aun ir brengen tsurik dem presn glaykh," Lixue said annoyed with her bodyguard/personnel.
(I'm surprised you're here, and you bring back that iron straight,)
"Ikh bin nebekhdik, meyn dame." Lixue's bodyguard/friend apologized.
(I'm sorry, my lady.)
"Let's just speak Chinese or English not Hebrew or Yiddish, I'm not fluent to speak your language," Lixue said to him.
"I followed you and I landed on your car." Lixue's friend replied.
"Shut up!" Lixue answered annoyed and got into the passenger seat and took her place.
"What did you say?" Lixue's bodyguard/friend asked her.
"Nothing! Let's go to my work and don't tell my dad about my job." Lixue said as a reminder and leaned on the chair.
"Where is he, why aren't you with him?" his bodyguard/friend asked while driving to Sakura Modeling Agency.
"He was with his girlfriend for sure," Lixue said.
Erika and Shuji left the condo with a smile on both of them.
"We've been in two rounds I miss you so much," Erika said to her boyfriend holding their hands.
Shuji just grinned at his girlfriend as he thought of his kiss with Lixue and the difference between the two lips he kissed. They got into the car immediately after leaving her condo.
When Shuji and Erika arrived opposite the building of the Sakura Modeling Agency.
They also saw Lixue with a man.
"Oh..Lixue." Erika called in surprise when she saw Lixue, she looked at the man.
"Mr. Liao." Lixue's bodyguard/friend called when he saw Shuji.
"Mr. G.M.," Shuji said as he bowed down and his girlfriend was surprised at what he did.
They entered the Sakura Modeling Agency. Erika was amazed by the aura of Lixue's bodyguard like a celebrity. All the people inside the agency turned around, and they recognized the people who entered inside.
"Miss Snow." the photographer approach to Lixue.
The photographer looked at the person next to Lixue who looked away.
"You have a handsome boyfriend." the photographer said.
"He's not my boyfriend, he's my bodyguard." Leatrice/Lixue replied when she saw Akatsuki looking.
Their photoshoot has already started with Lixue's bodyguard standing far away.
A few hours later, Akatsuki approached Lixue.
"Can I ask you a date?" Akatsuki approach to Lixue.
Lixue looked at her bodyguard.
"Yes, if he's with us, is that okay?" Lixue asked Akatsuki.
"I wish you were the only one who could take me alone, but if you can't, that's okay with me." Akatsuki and Lixue.
Lixue stood up and went to her bodyguard/friend. Akatsuki said what they were going to do and he just smiled.
"You are using his friend to make him jealous of you and his friend." Lixue's bodyguard/friend whispered to him.
"Yeah..." Lixue answered.
"Even though, you know you're hurting for someone." Lixue's bodyguard/friend answered.
"I would have been hurt for him and would have been able to play with him for a while, so he wouldn't have felt so bad," Lixue replied as Shuji, Akatsuki, Hyo, and Erika just looked at them.
"I'll still follow you through my wings." Lixue's bodyguard/friend whispered.
Lixue nodded and told Akatsuki that they could no longer be with his bodyguard. Akatsuki just smiled and they went back to the photoshoot.
After more than a few hours, their photoshoot ended and Akatsuki and Lixue said goodbye to everyone and Shuji even looked at them. Shuji looked at Lixue's bodyguard who suddenly disappeared from where he was standing, he just shook his head and asked Erika to go on a date with SM.
"Sure, darling," Erika replied with a smile to her boyfriend, she even licked the cousin who had teasing her earlier.
