Chapter 2

Y/n Pov

I enter the restaurant and notice him sitting on one of the closer tables, his eyes find me just the next second and he smiles, putting his right hand up and waving at me. I smile back and start walking to the table.

Instead of a shirt he asked for dinner, which he has been referring to as a "date". Though I denied it. I wasn't expecting him to ask me for a shirt given his financial status anyway, so things are working out just fine.

"Hey." He says and gets up from his chair, and pulls mine for me. I sit down and he pushes it ahead, followed by giving me another smile.

"Hi. Have you been waiting for too long?" I ask as he goes back to sit on his chair, "Nah not at all" he answers and sits down.

"So. How have you been?" He asked with a smile. He does infact have alot of charm in his smiles. "Good. And you?" I ask.

"Good as well. I hope I wasn't too much of a inconvenience? You are a CEO after all" he chuckles, I smile back.

"No no, not at all. And you? Were you free?" I ask, I might or might not have hit a spot. He scratches the back of his head.

"Oh. Well yeah I had a few things to take care of but nothing too important" he answered.

"Ah I see. That's good." I say and take a sip from my water. I can tell he's feeling pressured to make a conversation, but I just let it be for now.

"So what are your plans after this?" He asked, I didn't expect him to get to it this early. However, before I could answer the waiter came to get our order.

"I would like a Ginseng Chicken Soup please and thank you" I said after which Minho said he wanted the same. Once the waiter left his attention went back to me, as he patiently waited for me to answer the question he asked before.

I cleared my throat, "Well, not really. And you?" I answered.

"I'm free as well." He smiled.

"Oh? But isn't it a important day for the Lee family tomorrow? I heard in the news that you guys were inaugurating your 4th hotel in Seoul." I said with a confused face, to which all emotions in his face dropped.

"What?" He questioned, "What?" I repeated.

"How do you know about my family?" He asked with a change in his demeanor.

"What do you mean? You told me your name. Lee Minho, right?"

"Well, yeah. But not many people know about my background. This was a first in a while." He chuckled hesitantly. I smiled, "I like to do my research."

"You stalked me?" He raised his eye brow. "What? You're the heir of one of the biggest businesses in Korea, it wasn't really much work." I scoff.

"Ah. Well yeah but you see.." he scratched the back of his neck, "the inauguration is tomorrow, and I finished all my work as of today. So I'm free after this." He answered with a nervous smile.

I didn't expect him to come up with a lie this fast. That's impressive I guess. "Oh I see. Well we'll see then." I smile, just then the waiter showed up with our food.

"Eat well!"

-

I grab a tissue and wipe the corners of my lips, that tasted amazing. Minho already finished his food a few minutes ago, but he said he'd wait till I was done.

"Wanna watch a movie at my place?" He asks. I look up at him pretending to be startled, "Huh? I don't think we're that close yet."

"I mean it's just a movie." He shrugged.
