Zaki coughed hard on what the girl just told him. He was undeniably shooked to the core that he almost let himself got fooled by her again. He glanced at the girl while forcing himself to calm down, and as expected, the lack of seriousness in her face just made him confirmed that what she said isn’t serious at all. Causing him to just smirked in disbelief.

"So, you’re also a good liar, huh. Do I look like someone you could easily fool?" Zaki finally talked, as he looked at the girl with seemingly displeased gaze. However, again, the girl just answered back with another mischievous statement, enough to throw Zaki off his rhythm again.

"What. You can’t accept that I chose a normal looking guy over you?" she said and Zaki could only fell speechless for a while.

This pervert... when I’m wearing my mask she kept calling me unattractive and normal looking, yet now that I’m showing her my handsome face, she’s telling me this?

Zaki’s vein was about to popped when suddenlly, a certain idea popped inside his head, causing him to keep his cool and remain unfazed.

"You... you’re actually thinking I’ll believe such thing?" he said and he stood.

"You don’t have to worry, I will cancel not just the marriage, I’ll go against the engagement as well. Of course, I’ll tell them it was our mutual agreement." He continued and he was about to walk away when Hinari caught his hand to stop him.

Well, Hinari didn’t expect the man to decide so quickly and he even wanted to go against the engagement as well. Her intention in telling him those was just to make sure that the man won’t take her seriously. However, she didn’t want him to go and cancel the engagement just like that when her old grandfather was so happy about it. She couldn’t risk making the old man unhappy again, especially now that he just recovered from his illness.

Thus, without a choice, Hinari could only bit her lip as she suddenly clung unto the man’s arm.

"Uhm... please don’t..." she said and her aura turned pretty charming as her voice started becoming sweet as honey. However, again, due to his pass encounter with her, Zaki anticipated her move again. And one of the reason why was that, he saw just how obedient she was with her grandfather a while ago. And it was obvious to Zaki that she doesn’t want to disappoint the old man.

"Now what... isn’t this what you wanted?" he nonchalantly asked without being affected with the charm she just unleashed. Causing Hinari to be a bit taken aback.

What’s going on? Why is he not reacting at all? Why is it that this person feels like there’s two of him? Did I really made a mistake judging this man?

"P-please... my grandpa just recovered and he might fell ill again if you go against the engagement now. Can’t we just pretend for a while? And besides, were just engaged by name and it’s not like we’ll get together as lovers at all, right?" she said smoothly and her voice was surely a seductive aroma that was hard even for someone like Zaki to actually resist without struggling.

However, for some reason, Zaki was being amused with all the completely opposite changes in her expressions and treatments towards him. Making him wanting to just tease her even more.

"Fine, I’ll consider your request if... You beg me more." He said with a mischievous smile carved in his face. Causing Hinari to immediately went annoyed but she could only force a sweet laugh as she tightened her grasp in his arm.

"Ahaha... my dear fiancé, why do you need to make me beg? Aren’t I your fiancé? You shouldn’t treat me like this, or else I’ll cry." She said and her eyes went teary. Making Zaki almost lost a hold of himself the moment she called him ’my fiancé’ with matching sweet seductive teary eyes.

Damn it! This pervert really is talented... her skill is topnotch and shouldn’t be underestimated at all. I can’t believe that even though I know she was faking it all, she still managed to push me through the edges like this...

"Haha... my dear fiancé, your trick won’t work for me okay? Even if you cry in front of me like a baby, I won’t budge unless you do what I say and beg me more." Zaki replied as he patted her head carelessly just as how the girl was violently squeezing his arm.

However, that moment, something unthinkable happened. When the girl heard the two old men’s voice approaching, a mischievous smile suddenly carved in her face and the next second...

Like a little kid, she suddenly cried loudly.

She wept hard as though someone just died, alarming everyone in the house, especially the two old men. Zaki who was shocked to the core immediately hugged the girl and buried her face in his chest the moment he saw his grandfather’s furious face.

He patted her back as though he’s trying to console her gently as ever as he lowered down his head to her ear.

"Damn you... are you trying to make me killed? Stop crying right. Now. Damn it!" he whispered firmly as he continued caressing her back when again, the girl cried loudly even more. Causing Zaki’s great defense to finally crumble into pieces. Well, it’s because he could now feel the cold and terrifying gazes coming from his very own family.

Zuzuki Hinari... You actually dared and managed doing all these to me, huh... You better not regret later for provoking me like this...

"Okay, I give up. I give up. Please stop now. I’m sorry, I’m sorry. I won’t ask you to beg anymore." Zaki finally said as he loosened up as the sign of him raising his white flag.

And as soon as Hinari heard the man’s words, a victorious smile finally carved on her face before she looked at him.

"Promise me first that you’re not going to cancel the engagement until I say so." She said causing another invisible vein in Zaki’s forehead to popped.

"You..."

"If you won’t, I’ll just cry loudly again until your old man disown you." She said and when the man just looked at her without stating the word ’promise’, Hinari decided to just cry again. However, just as she was about to continue crying louder, all of a sudden...

The man kissed her.
