Childe's POV
I woke up only to find myself alone in the bed, again. I felt sorrow overcome my feelings. I got up to clear my thoughts about him. I went to go to the bathroom but was instead greeted with someone whom just finished bathing.
"Childe! You're awake, sorry I just came out of the bath." I thought he had gone home once again, leaving me be by my own, yet I still find him here. My eyes wandered of his. I immediately looked at his body.. it was slim yet he still had some muscles to show. His skin was light yet tanned, I couldn't tell his age by looking at his body. "Childe... my eyes are up here." He suddenly spoke which made me jump. "Uh‐ yes! I'm-" I couldn't finish my sentence properly when he pushed me against the wall. It was the first time I felt so dominated... I liked it. "If you want another match then you should wait dear, its been a long night. Why don't we just relax for today." He said to me with a smirk. I felt my body shivering from excitement, as if he's challenging me not to get turned on by this.
"You.. you're quite a wild one.. Mr. Zhongli." I smirked back at him. "Indeed.." He then let's go of his posture. "Would you like to use the shower now?" He gestured. "You won't leave me?" "I don't have anything better to do, plus, I don't have a ride." He playfully said. I chuckled and went to shower.
Zhongli's POV
I went to go and find my clothes, most of them were stained by... fluids and some are not. I was relieved to see that only my coat was stained. I then wore my clothes and folded the coat. After a good while he finished. "So, you're Chinese right?" He asked me right as he went out of the bathroom. "Yes, my name is Zhongli, couldn't you tell?" "No, I just didn't want to get the false assumption." He said drying his hair. "You know.. I do know a bit of Mandarin, do you speak?" "我当然是了。你呢？(Of course. What about you?)" "是的，普通话是一门很难掌握的语言。(Yes, Mandarin is a quite hard language to master.)" I chuckled at his statement. His pronunciation was very accurate and good, I wonder why he learned to speak.
"Are you hungry? Should we go to a nearby Cafe?" "Sure, I know just the place." We borh pack our bags and went outside. At the lobby—he told me to wait because he was going to pay for the room. I sat down the seats designed specially for this. As I was looking around, I saw numerous people wearing high-class clothing, their jewelry are seemingly expensive. Yet here I am, amongst them, a broke old man with a child paying for our expenses. I felt awkward and pathetic at the thought—though I was interrupted by the certain someone. "All done now, Xiangcheng. Let's go?" I stood up and nodded. We both went out of the hotel and he took his phone out. "Are you calling someone?" "Yes, my driver." "Alright, well the place is **********" "Sure, let me tell him."
The driver finally arrived. I was surpied at how the car looked expensive. "After you, Xiangsheng." He said with a flirtatious voice. I chuckled and went in accordingly. After I went in he did the same. The ride was fast yet it felt as if time was slower than ever. I felt awkward but I still felt comfortable. As I went to start a conversation—his phone rang. He quickly answered.
"Hello?" "Sir, you were appointed to a meeting at 2. Requested by the FH Bank."
He went silent for a second, as If he was disturbed. He then answered again. This time, I didn't try to listen to the conversation since it sounded very private.
Childe's POV
My face illuminated a shocked structure. It has been so long since the FH Bank contacted or arranged a meeting that included me. I wonder if it was serious or not.
"Got it, please call in my house and ask them to prepare a suit." "Yes sir, will do."
I ended the call and looked at Zhongli, he was looking out of the window as if he was avoiding himself from listening at the call. It was pretty adorable but I find it very polite of him. "Xiangsheng..." I called out. His thoughts were dropped onec I called him. He jumped slightly and looked at me. "Yes?" "...you look busy. What were you watching?" "Nothing, just the streets. I'm glad that I won't have to walk again." I giggle a bit from his statement. "You seem to hate walking. It's best to assume you also hate running?" "Yes, at this age I might break my back very soon." "If it did then I'll fix it for you~" He chuckled at my statement. I can't help but find his small yet adorable gestures amusing. I wanted to spoil him more. Paying his mortgage wasn't enough for me. I needed to do more simple gifts for him. "Xiangsheng, what can I do for you?" "What?" "I want to do something for you, because you make me so happy. Please ask me anything, I'll do it for you!" "C-Childe, that's too much to ask for. I'm sorry but I'll have to decline your request." I whimper playfully to him. I tried to give him the best puppy eyes I can do. "Please Xiangsheng! I want to spoil you!" "No can do Childe. You can just spoil me by making my day, alright?" I stopped my puppy eyes cause of his request. It's quite an intriguing one I may say, and as a business man myself, I have no reason to decline. "Alright, but I will spoil you, just you wait."
After a while, the driver arrived at our said destination. "Sir, we are here." "At last!" I spoke, I then opened the car doors for him. "There you go~" He chuckled again, gosh can't he just stop being cute!? No wait- never stop being cute. I beg of you Xiangsheng!
AN:
FINALLY RAHHHH
