3rd person's POV

Bell rang.

"Are you going with me?" Minho asked Chaerin

"Should I? I mean Sujin is here. Maybe I can go with him instead?" Chaerin asked

"I guess so. Sujin is here for you, anyways." Minho said

He was about to go when he noticed Hyunjin and Felix were staring at him and Chaerin talking. As what Minho planned, he came up with an idea. He put his arm around her shoulder.

"They're looking?" Chaerin asked

"Obviously. I wouldn't put my arm here if not." Minho chuckled

"I think you should stop teasing them. They would be so mad at you- I am sure they are mad at you. We know Felix. He doesn't have any patience." Chaerin answered

"I'm just enjoying this. Can I give you a kiss on your forehead?" he asked

"What?" she looks so surprised with what she headd

"You know..." Minho

"Fine." Chaerin answered

Minho made Chaerin face him and put his both hands on her shoulder then gave her a kiss on her forehead. A quick one.

"Wow. Just so you know, Felix is so red right now." Chaerin said

He just laughed.

"Chaerin?" Sujin called the young lady

"Yup, coming!" she answered

"I'll see you there." Minho told her and smiled

Chaerin went with Sujin as agreed, while Minho went to his friends even though both Hyunjin and Felix are so mad at him. Especially Felix. He doesn't even care if she is in a relationship with Minho. He hates it when Chaerin and Minho are together.

"I'll go ahead. My girlfriend's parents want me to have dinner with them." Minho said

"I'm gonna kill him." Felix said which Minho clearly heard

"Asshole." Hyunjin whispered referring to Minho

"I think you should go if you want to get out of here alive." Changbin told him

Minho left the classroom laughing.

Meanwhile, Chaerin is quiet on their way to her parents which is really unusual. Even her, it bothers her that she is quiet. Sujin who is driving kept glancing at her from time to time.

"Your parents are nice but when it comes to their company they are very strict. Your brother is really serious most of the time." Sujin started a conversation

"Ah I see." Chaerin answered

Sujin just let out a chuckle as he can clearly feel that Chaerin is nervous. It's understandable.

They arrived at the restaurant at the same time as Minho. The three of them went inside, upstairs, and found Chaerin's family sitting on a round table with some food served already.

"Chaerin." Minki greeted with a smile on his face, he also greeted Minho and Sujin who came with Chae. He even pulled the chair for Chaerin to sit between him and Minho.

"How are you?" Lord Hoon greeted the young lady

"I'm fine. How are you, s-sir?" she asked

"I'm good. Enough with the sir. I have talked to you about this, you are gonna call me Dad just like how Minki calls me." Lord Hoon said with a smile on his face

"If you're still uncomfortable, it's fine." Lady Iseul said

"Right." Lord Hoon chuckled

"Have you ever- Oh! Lee Clan." Minki said with a smile on his face as he saw the couple, Minho's parents.

"Uh... Mom. Dad. What are you two doing here?" Minho looks confused

"We're gonna have dinner with the Ryu Clan as a family." Ms. Lee said

Minho who has always been a royal, he knew what is going on. He wasn't sure if he is right, but he has been in the same situation numerous times before and it's always the same thing. An agreement between two families.

Although he has an idea what is happening, he didn't dare ask about it. He always have the freedom to do what he wanted but when it comes to their family image, he never questioned his parents.

Other foods served to them and they started eating dinner. Both the two royal couples kept talking about something related to their business which only Minki and Sujin has an idea.

Chaerin didn't grew up with her family, and Minho doesn't have the interest in their family company. The dinner continued really well not until a topic came up.

"Well, I'm glad you two agreed with us on this matter. I mean this is better than setting up Minho to other family." Mr. Lee said

That's when Minho confirmed that he is right. They wanted him to marry Chaerin because of some agreement they had with Chae's family.

"Do you want to get married?" Minho whispered to Chaerin

"What? Are you crazy? You can't just ask people such question." Chaerin said

"I was kidding. You're too serious. Anyways, do you want a bad news?" Minho asked

She didn't talk and just listened.

"Do you have any idea why both our family are eating dinner together and are discussing business?" Minho asked

"No." she answered

"They want us to get married. You better leave before they even open up the topic. Pretend that you're using the bathroom, I'll cover up for you." Minho said

Chaerin looks confused.

"Just go. I'll talk to you tomorrow." Minho said

She is panicking but she has to go like what Minho said, "Excuse me, I'll use the bathroom."

"Sure!" Ms. Lee said

Chaerin hurriedly took her bag with her and came down the restaurant. She is so nervous but that is not what matters. She needs to leave before they even look for her.

As soon as she came out of the restaurant, she saw a familiar figure opening the door of his car.

"Felix?" she called

Felix looked behind him and saw Chaerin, "Why are you here? You're supposed to be with Minho."

"Take me with you. Anywhere." she said
