"What do you mean, how do I know you're name?"
"Well since I never mentioned my name yet, I find it a little interesting how you knew it."
Ying Yue cursed in her head, 'Why am I so stupid recently?!' She had accidentally revealed that she knew his name, which was fine, but it meant that she had researched him. Her body stayed relaxed against his body but her mind was tense and racing to cover all holes in her lies.
"Google."
"Google?" Xi Long chuckled at her answer. Sure google was an option but with what picture? What information? His kitten was lying to him but it was cute to watch her answer me with a look as if to say 'You think I'm lying?! How dare you question my honesty!' He had to admit, her acting skills were natural and could almost fool him if he already did not know her. Every part of her screamed mysterious and skilled so his gut was telling him it was not as easy as google.
"Yes Google. Did you really think that you were hiding yourself well?"
"Tell me how you did it."
"First of all you dress in custom made clothes that are high quality. The watch alone on your wrist is at least a million yen hence I could tell you were wealthy."
"Yes but there are a lot of wealthy men out there, how-"
"Now if you'll stop interrupting me I can continue. Second, your insufferable attitude. You scream arrogance, danger, and the mindset of someone who always gets there way even if they have to get bloody. So there are a lot of rich men but how many are feared in Country E? Finally, your physical features. 6ft 2, pitch hair, brown eyes, etc. All of these together made you very easy to find, you'd be surprised how many fans created bios of you."
"Still doesn't answer how you could confirm it was me - there are no clear pictures of my face."
Rolling her eyes, she got up from his lap and went towards the kitchen for a glass of water. "I'm not sure how you run an empire with that brain of yours. If you can remember two hours ago we went to a restaurant where the reservation was under a Mr.Han and let's not forget one of your ex-girlfriends practically screaming your name. So does that answer your question?" Ying Yue smirked as she watched him from her couch. She was the queen of deception so her lies were perfect not that they were complete lies either. She indeed searched him on Google but she had cross-referenced his pictures from the cctv first. Running his picture through her database is what got her his name. Google was just a way to see how much information he let out to the public and how many scandals he was involved in. She knew he was questioning her but she did not care. Her answer was logical and she was not about to back down from her story.
Xi Long watched as she walked away from him once again showing her jade legs and filled behind that his hands itched to touch again. He knew that he had taken his teasing to far today. But who could blame him? His kitten was the epitome of seduction. He couldn't help but kiss her repeatedly which to his surprise she did not reject completely. He was determined to stop there but then she had come out in shorts and practically squashed his resolve. This was his woman but to her he was a man she just met three days ago and acting so physical with her was not the correct way to court her.
Drawing his eyes away from her body he refocused on her words. What she said was logical, he did not think she would notice his name in the reservation book nor did he remember the trash that tried to ruin his date. He had long thrown the memories away as they were insignificant, before his kitten any other woman who approached him was simply trash. Getting up from his seat he walked towards her challenging eyes.
"Mhm I'll believe you for now...but one clarification kitten. That was not my girlfriend, nor did I ever have a girlfriend." Adding a cheeky smile he spoke, "The position is still open, why don't you apply?"
Ying Yue's face flushed again at his direct comment. She wasn't blind she knew he was courting her but she did not know what it is about her that made him do this. Her bet was because he found her interesting and was probably the first woman to reject his advances. But never having a girlfriend...was he lying? No, he wouldn't lie. Somewhere in her heart she knew that he would be honest with her, arrogant and annoying but honest. So was he ....frigid? Without her knowing she had accidentally said it out loud.
Xi Long choked when he heard her. Frigid? That was the conclusion she made?! He could not follow this woman's train of thought. Leaning into her he said, "I'm far from frigid. Thought I proved myself to you earlier but I don't mind going futher..." He wanted to tease her further but his phone rang breaking the moment. Glancing at the caller ID he saw that it was Shufen calling him from outside. He had to get to work soon, he wished he could take the day away but he had to take care of some pests. Grabbing his stuff he headed towards the door and glanced back her standing in the same spot watching him. "I have to get to work Kitten, don't miss me too much. If you do, feel free to come straight to the company. I'll be waiting."
Leaving the apartment and heading towards his car he ordered the car to speed towards the office. His face turned stone cold and his concealed anger released into the air suffocating everyone in the car. He had been kind for too long and insects kept popping out of nowhere challenging him. It was time to remind them why he was the King of the Underworld.
