At the infirmary...

It must have been so troublesome that I passed out. I'll just apologize to Sehun, I thought to myself when someone knocked on the door, Sehun came in. "Luhan, where do you live? I'll take you home." he offered. Instincts suddenly kicked in. There's no way I'm going home with this playboy! Besides there's no guarantee that he won't do something to me. Oh and he would know who I really am if he saw my house.

"Uh no, don't worry I can go home by myself." I said rejecting his offer "But your bruises..." before he could finish I cut him off. "No, it's okay. They'll heal overnight. I have good genes." He was hesitant but nonetheless nodded. "Well, if you say so. Here, I packed your things." He said handing me my bag. "Thank you." I said. "It's no problem, see you." he was about to leave when I quickly stopped him. "Ah wait! President! Ah I mean Sehun." I almost shouted. "Hmm what is it?'' he said turning around to face me. "I...uh... I'm sorry for causing you trouble, today." I felt my cheeks blush so I looked away. "Hey, why are you looking away? Aren't apologies supposed to be sincere?" he said in a mocking sort of way.

"I-I'm just looking outside to see if the weather's fine." I said making an excuse, then he started laughing loudly like a little kid. I stared at him, shocked by what I'm seeing. This boy is full of surprises. I can't anticipate what's coming next.

When he noticed that I was staring at him he asked "Is there something wrong?" I shook my head. "No, it's that I've never seen you laugh like that." I said in a low voice "I must've looked like an idiot." he said scratching his head. "Ah no, well, I think it suits you." I remarked. "Really?" He asked "Yeah, you look more like yourself when you laugh like that."

"You're the first one to say that. But thanks." He gave me a warm smile. I stood up and took my things and headed to the door. "See you around Sehun." I smiled then left.

I got home after a while, by then my bruises are almost gone. See? Told you, I have good genes. Then suddenly my dad called on to me. "Dad, what is it?" I asked as soon as I got in his study. "Luhan, did you finish the presentation?" he asked me. I nodded "Of course, why?"

"It's because the board and investors wants to meet you." he looked down. I can tell he's scared that I would get mad at him. So I tried to cheer him up. "Is that all? What time do they want to meet me?" I said softly. "You're okay with that?" he said getting happy all of a sudden.

"Of course, I'm Xi Luan after all. Ah Well, starting tomorrow that is." I stated. "Really? Oh thank you, thank you, thank you." He said in a very cheerful tone. "It's okay dad." I laughed. "Will 2 o'clock be okay?" he asked. "It's perfect." I said. "Okay." he smiled like a child again.

Actually now I see why he is always teased, it's kind of cute though. "I will go to my room now, okay? I'm really tired so I'm going to rest." I told him "Okay goodnight." he said as he gave me a quick peck on my forehead. I left the room and went directly to mine. I took a bath and changed into my sleeping clothes. Before I fell asleep someone knocked on the door. It was Baekhyun.

"Luhan are you ready for tomorrow?" he said as he threw himself on my bed. "Yeah, why?" I asked. He shrugged "I was thinking maybe you'd regret saying yes to what decisions uncle is making." I scowled at him. "I won't do that." I said. "I know. You need to get more beauty sleep, you always look so tired." he said heading to the door. I rolled my eyes and said "Good night!" he waved at me "Night."

The next morning, I woke up as soon I heard the alarm. I have a tight schedule today so I need to make do. I took a quick bath and change into a plain shirt and jeans. Actually, that was the only clothes left in my wardrobe. I went down as soon I got dressed. Baekhyun was already ready to leave. We went shopping for my clothes. Baekhyun dragged me to thirty different stores. I don't even remember the names of the stores.
