93 The reason (1/2)

”Wanqiu, your dress is really pretty...”

Hu Qiang spoke while the snooze on his nose fluttered in the room. Both Naruto and Wanqiu Xia stood in his respective side with different expression held in their face.

”Wow, he even has the dream, he must have so much crush on you...” Naruto glanced at her and teased her with a smirk.

”Yeah, too bad for him though, cos I still don't like him...” Wanqiu Xia lifted her shoulder half-way.

”Why? Because he broke up with his girlfriend?”

”Girlfriends, he had broken so many women's heart.”

”Wow, this guy is such a player?! Awesome!”

”Don't admired him!”

Naruto stared at the man before him, his face might be handsome and had a manly figure, but the way he behave was rather goofy and childish, this kind of person actually had the guts to play with women? Maybe he didn't learn a proper manner to treat one lady? Many men only knew how to flirt and get a woman's heart, maybe their body along the way, but hardly there is men that can keep one around. Well, sometimes the fault happened on both sides so no one can judge whether the man just had some bad luck with women or for other reason.

Naruto raised his right hand and carelessly slapped Hu Qiang's left cheek, he did the left one since his right cheek had some drool on it. The force enough to send his head to the side but not letting him fell from the chair.

Wanqiu Xia gasped, Naruto harsh way to wake the man's up is rather shocking to her.

”Pick me! Pick me! I am the only qualified!” the bear-like man immediately stood up from his chair the moment he awake from his slumber, the trail of liquid from the corner of his mouth dripped down onto the floor.

There was a long silent after his uproar and he startled,a calloused hand brushed a pair of eyes and looked around only to find two people left exist in the room.

”Where the other people go?!” he dropped his squared jaw.

”Work,” Naruto said with a light smile.

”Break time's over already?!”

The pair of man and woman nodded their head.

”Well whatever, thankfully I am security director, I don't have to be in office all the time,” he shrugged.

Naruto chuckled at the man's manner while Wanqiu Xia twitched her lips in disgust.

She hated a slacker type like this, especially when they had no responsibility at all toward their position. A director might not have the same obligation to obey the rule like a normal worker, but it will make a good impression and example for them, it also will lessen the gap of distance between the position thus create less awkward situation when the director required something to fulfill from the worker, or with more simple words, order them around.

If this was a normal circumstances, Wanqiu Xia perhaps already dashed off back to her office, after all, there were many things she had to do and client she needed to meet, but since the CEO had told her to accompany Naruto, therefore she remained obedient at his side.

”Oh!” Hu Qiang's face turned excited, ”elder brother! Did I pass your discernment?”

Wow, he even directly call me elder brother!

Naruto almost wanted to burst out a laughter but he sensed a great amount of anger stacked up beside him, thus he forcefully swallowed the expression.

”Un, un, you are the sole survivor of this challenge to be able to court little minx!”

”Really?!” no one can imagined how happy the way he looked the moment he heard Naruto's approval for him to chase his beloved one, then he shifted his glance to Wanqiu Xia, his eyes sparkled a passion that reached the infinity and beyond.

The object of adoration gritted her teeth in annoyance, then she glared at Naruto dangerously.

Naruto trailed down one cold sweat, with a smile still hung on his face, he said slowly, ”Only... if you can beat me in an Arm Wrestling...”

The two person startled, Hu Qiang said in doubtful tone, ”Arm Wrestling?”

”Yeah, you do know Arm Wrestling, right?”

”Of course, of course, elder brother! But...” Hu Qiang looked at Naruto's slender like arm then he compared it with his own which almost twice in size, ”are you sure about this, elder brother?”

”What? You doubt my strength?” Naruto chuckled, ”also isn't it good if I am weak? You can easily carry little minx to go to home. Yeah, you heard me right, beat me in Arm Wrestling then you don't need to court her, you don't need to flirt with her anymore, you can directly carry her into the nuptial bed if you desire.”

Both person had their body shivered with different reason, Hu Qiang inner desire suddenly flared up at the thought of picking up the lady of his heart with his both hands then throwing her into the soft bed, as her body juggled at the bouncy mattress, he immediately pounced at her and the night of romance began. Wanqiu Xia inner desire also flared up, but not in the same way as Hu Qiang, but more like, she wanted to walk up to the blonde man ahead and kicked him out to the endless horizon.

Seriously what the heck is he thinking?! Treating her like an object that anyone can bet...

Oh, wait, someone usually bet on something precious on them or worth the gold.

Is it possible that he thought of her as something precious...?

The small waist woman glanced up to the ceiling, the deeper she gave it a thought, the darker the blush she had on her face.

Soon she declined her face and found Naruto was looking at her with wrinkled eyebrows, steamed as if blow up from her head, she immediately shook her head and waved her hands in denial.

Naruto thought this woman had of lot weird things going on with her today, perhaps she should check up with doctor soon... or therapist....

”Elder brother! Let's get on with it, NOW!!!” Hu Qiang roared, it scared both Naruto and Wanqiu Xia.

They walked up to one of the table, placed two seats on different sides. Hu Qiang unclasped his wrist button then raising up the sleeve up to several inches above his elbow. But he found Naruto didn't do the same thing, instead he just leisurely sat on the chair and rested his elbow on the top of the table. Of course it's not necessary to do what he did, but it showed at least a bit preparation for the duel, and most of the time your forearm muscle will bulge as the wrestling on progress, it can be quite uncomfortable with a thigh clothes wrapped it up at that time.

Oh whatever, perhaps elder brother didn't really serious on doing this, maybe he just want to test my consideration toward my opponent that smaller than me.

Yes! That's maybe what elder brother real intention is!

To make me show my gentle side despite facing against my enemy in front of Wanqiu!

Huum, elder brother, you really care about my love life!

At this moment, Wanqiu Xia minced at Naruto's side, her face was somehow smiling but Naruto knew there was a deep danger held in that tone. She bent down her body, her red lips closed to Naruto's ear vicinity. He could taste her hot breath tickled his sense, but it gave his heart a cold instead.

”You dare to lose, I feed you with cakes for your entire life~” then she raised her body and retreated with a swaying hips.

”Haha...” Naruto bitterly laughed, Why she sounds like an angry wife?

Hu Qiang already occupied the seat across the table, his hand stretched out and readied on the table, he noticed there was still a distance between his hand and Naruto's, a frown pulled his face down, ”Elder brother, can you extend your hand a little bit, this way we couldn't get the wrestling to start.”

”Oh?” Naruto smiled, ”but you are the challenger, wasn't it you who suppose to be do that?”

Hu Qiang startled, then he frowned again before nodding his head, ”Elder brother is right! How foolish am I for asking you such a thing, please forgive me elder brother!”

He shouldn't ask disrespect the blonde man before him, after all, he is going to be his brother-in-law in future, moreover, Wanqiu Xia's happy marriage life decided by his hand, thus he needed to treat him well!

”It's fine, your behavior is good, me likey!”

Hu Qiang started feeling bashful, even when he is a man again, getting such compliment enough to flutter one heart.

Wanqiu Xia stared with half-lidded eyes as if she was bored by the charade that being displayed.

Hu Qiang fixed his position and extended his own hand, now by the portion of the table's length, he most likely covered 60% of it.

They both crossover each arms and grasped the opposite party's hand, Naruto's expression never change one bit and Hu Qiang also appeared relaxed, but one could see a light shiver on his eyebrows.

”Well, we need a judge to oversee the duel,” Naruto tilted his face to the side, ”little minx, my dear little sister, why don't you take the position? You be more useful that way than being a bystander.”

Wanqiu Xia snorted but it's not like she got other thing to do anyway, ”Both parties ready?”

Naruto nodded but Hu Qiang bellowed instead, ”Wanqiu, you wait for me! I am going to make you my bride!”

The small waist woman twitched her lips, her small hand already turned into a fist and readied to pummel this blockhead bastard, if she had the power.

Oh, if Naruto lose, I am just going to expose the truth, better be called as a liar than being with him.

”1... 2... 3... go!”

As soon as Wanqiu Xia's crisp voice finished the cue, both person immediately strengthening the grip on their opponent's hand. Hu Qiang had some trouble in positioning his hand since it went unbalance with the length he supposed to assume but he still had the confidence to defeat Naruto. He went to the gym to build his arm and body not for without reason.

In fact, he decided to be lenient and lessening his effort in order to let Naruto had the sense of equality, it would created an awkward winning if the person himself lose badly.

At least until he realized that no matter how he tried to bring down Naruto's hand, that part of limb stay firm on the table.

It's like trying to move away a statue

”Huuugh!” Hu Qiang groaned, he could feel the tense in his muscle as he increased the output of his strength and successfully made Naruto's hand slightly move to the side. His eyes turned brighter at the sight and with a great resolve, he put more some effort on it.

Bit by bit Naruto's hand tilted until it reached below 30 degree, but at the moment he reached that point, Hu Qiang whole body already went red while perspiration soaked his attire.

Wanqiu Xia saw his entire arm filled with vein, even his temple also popped out with one. He hold his breath and gave all of his might to give the last touch to finish the game, sweats from his forehead slipped inside his eyes and made it ache.
