You, Me and The Universe

5.6

XiuRong toured their company with a dashing smile plastered on his face. His aura is extremely welcoming and friendly, and his posture is so professional that the girls and the guys were practically drooling while stealing glances towards XiuRong, much to SuChen's displeasure.

Whenever someone attempt to talk to XiuRong, SuChen will immediately look at that person with his deadly glare. Immediately that person will retreat and scram, of course XiuRong was oblivious that he was being guarded.

"SuChen ah, you don't need to come with us while I tour XiuRong. I know you're going to have a meeting later with Yi investors." His Father said with visible joy in his voice. He thinks that his older son is so reliable and very responsible when it comes to his younger brother.

He actually went with them all throughout the floors they've visited, what a good son he is. Father Han's smile got wider just by thinking how good and considerate SuChen is.

Unbeknownst to him, SuChen's face is black as the back of a pot while looking at his father's smile. If he'll let them go surely many will swarm with his younger brother or worse...

SuChen narrowed his eyes towards XiuRong, what if he'll find a guy that he'll like ah!

SuChen felt really uncomfortable thinking about it.

"SuChen? SuChen? You okay?"

SuChen blinks and looks at his father and slightly nods, indicating that he's okay.

"Well then, we'll take it from he--"

"No, Father. I'll come with you. I'll also inspect their performance while we're at it." SuChen immediately interrupts his father and continued walking ahead of them.

Han Father was confused by his son's behavior, what does he mean inspect their performance? But nevertheless he shrugs it off.

While XiuRong's heart was beating like crazy despite the calm facade he's portraying outside. XiuRong is worried that SuChen knows what he's about to do ah, what will he do? If SuChen knows about this plan even before he can move his claw, then he's going to get cut by SuChen's nail cutter.

The tour ended with SuChen's interruption of whenever XiuRong tried strike up a conversation with someone, making XiuRong more uncomfortable than he already feels.

He knows. He definitely knows that he's going to snatch his position, now he doesn't want him to interact with someone from the company to cut his claws.

XiuRong laid his exhausted body and relaxed his swollen feet. Why did he even wear those tight shoes? Now he's eating the consequences, how hateful.

XiuRong moved his body and immediately he felt pang in his left foot and gave out a loud cry.

"Ah! Damn it! Damn It!" XiuRong wailed, his eyes became watery and his face flushes from the pain.

*BANG*

XiuRong was startled by the sudden door that flung open, revealing a glaring SuChen.

"B-Big Brother ah, w-what are you doing here?" XiuRong forces a small smile.

Why is he here? Is he going to confront him about his plan? Is he going to threaten him?

"Are..." SuChen awkwardly stands straight and looks at XiuRong's left side not daring to look at XiuRong's eyes.

SuChen cleared his throat.

"A-Are you okay? I heard you shout and thought something happ--- what happened to your feet?" SuChen intently looks at XiuRong's white feet but slightly got distracted by the pinkish toes.
