Chapter 11 - 11. ..a bit clumsy... (2/2)

He had his hairs partly gelled on the left and while the part on the other side were left lightly falling over his forehead, somehow highlighting the mole under his right eye, it was glistening. With the custom made Patek Phillipe on his hand, which was a gift from her, he had taken the role of the Handsome-Prince-in-casuals-on-outing perfectly.

She gave him a smile and passed him a bowl of soup, which he took graciously.

....

”Linlin, I thought about it.”, he said lightly as he took a bite of his toast with strawberry jam, he really loved it.

”hm?”, she was done with her buttered toast and was taking a sip of her juice.

”Well..... there is no need to stop those dinners...just that, next time make sure to there, by my side”, he said with a serious expression.

Her movement stopped for a second but then she looked up and smiled.

She got up and used a tissue to clean the remnant milk which appeared as a moustache, ah, this ruined that serious look.

She affirmed, ”hm..I'll note it later.”

Her XuanXuan was growing up, he knew that he couldn't be willful anymore, not that he ever was but she was glad that he still needs him, even though he decided to give in he still wanted her to by her side and relied on her, she was really glad.....' Well, he is still a bit clumsy.'

After they were done with their breakfast, they went out.

Whenever they were in the office building, mainly during work hours, she had a habit of walking half a step behind him, well, it was expected from her as his Personal Assistant but her reason, for it, was a bit different. She walked behind him to make sure that he knows, knows that she is always behind him, to help him, to support him...this, by the way, led to another habit of Qin ZiXuan. Whenever they were together outside of work, he made sure to walk beside her to make her know that he was always there, she was his equal and deserved the rightful place, which was to be beside him.

The bodyguard beside the car gave a nod, as he saw them walk shoulder to shoulder, complementing each other, in the best way possible.

Qin ZiXuan asked him for the keys and asked him to leave them be.

The bodyguard handed him the keys, bowed and left the area.

Before he could say something, she was already standing by the driver's side and her face was practically saying that 'she was going to drive that day', he sighed, threw the keys to her and went inside the passenger's side of the car.

The Qins ancestral house was in the military district and was surrounded by a huge expanse of forest, over the top of a mountain which excluded them from the world and was one and a half hour drive away from the place she lived in or more practically from the QMX building.

.......

As he took in the changing scenery he noticed that the car was speeding up.

One reason she didn't like to use cars was because she was used to racing and felt stifling while driving on those traffic-filled roads so, today when she had wanted to drive, he felt something was wrong but didn't put too much thought to it, but now that they were speeding up on the highway, which was definitely not on the way to the mansion, he was a bit amused.

.........

When I read the comment of @Pudor in the last chapter, I got an idea for a skit....

”hahahaha...I am actually a step-mother author for my BG stories(in contrast to being a doting mother type for my BL stories) so fingers crossed coz a little separation is good for both of them, after all, their distance equates the strength of their relationship, no?”, I was righteously explaining myself, acting all 'innocent and cute'...forget it, even I'm getting goosebumps.

Meilin, poker face: ”....”

A clingy ZiXuan: Linlin, she is bullying us...wuwu

Meilin: Ready my tools....she made my XuanXuan sad. UNFORGIVABLE!!

ZiXuan hugs her hiding his devilish smile: I should prepare the yacht...haven't fed my shark- my cute fishes for a long time.

Atsuki cold sweats:”......”, runs away for life, with all her might!
