Chapter 169: Progress-2
If you are going to change someone as stubborn as her, you have to be shameless down to the core.
Looking at his unwavering eyes, Ichiko Saori could only sigh helplessly.
But the surprise this boy brought to her was too much, she was scared that Su Chen would really do what he had said.
"Okay, tell me what do you want?"
In the end, she conceded.
Looking at her deflated figure, Su Chen slowly let go of her.
"Of course, what I want is to be your nominal boyfriend!"
"All I want is a fair chance to be close to my teacher."
Su Chen spoke with stars in his eyes.
The acting was without any flaws, he felt like he was no different than a top movie actor.
His demand was neither excessive nor too less.
"Come on teacher, this is the least request, I could have asked to directly become your boyfriend, but instead I showed proper respect and etiquette, asking you to chase yourself fair and square."
"Moreover it's just a nominal boyfriend not a real boyfriend, in case you are dissatisfied at any stage, you can dismiss me directly."
Su Chen directly vowed on the spot like his life depended on her decision.
His pitiful face added with shamelessness and forcefulness finally pushed Ichiko Saori into a corner.
'He is right, a nominal boyfriend is different from a real one!'
'Maybe when he gets tired or novelty finishes, he will quit on his own?'
With this thought in her mind, Ichiko Saori no longer felt the struggle.
'Indeed, it's like he said, I can find any random reason and dismiss him saying he failed his duty as my nominal boyfriend.'
With a plan in her mind, Saori slowly nodded her head.
"But you can't do any excessive action like this now!"
"Especially, no kissing!"
Ichiko Saori, who by now had moved a considerable distance from Su Chen hissed like an aggrieved kitten.
"This was a special situation!"
"I only did so because you were about to cut all contact between us!"
"So you agree to my proposal?"
Su Chen raised his eyebrows, the smile on his face only becoming more fervent.
Some things only need to be forced once, because the rest of the time such things can happen naturally.
As long as there was room for manoeuvre, Su Chen was sure to gain a quarter.
Otherwise, why do all those cheating wives upon being caught still cheat when they promise such things won't happen again?
It's because the other party is too lenient.
Yes, Su Chen was taking advantage of her lenient and accommodating nature.
Under his persistent gaze, Ichiko Saori finally nodded helplessly.
"So Saori, it's already dark, let's go eat dinner tonight."
"There is a new street restaurant opened near the school. I heard they make some tasty spicy Korean food."
The change in Su Chen's tone was immediate.
From the very moment she agreed, he started addressing her by her first name instead of the normal salutation- teacher….sent ripples of waves inside Ichiko Saori's long agitated heart.
In the end, she could only go with the flow.
Meekly giving occasional hums while letting Su Chen flamboyantly drag her along.
As a complete novice, she was a newbie when it came to romantic affairs.
Like an ostrich, she could only bury her head and let the man take initiative.
But for some reason, feeling a pair of strong hands dragging her out, an inexplicable feeling surged inside, whether it was some expectation or thrill of something unknown even she didn't know.
She had completely fallen into Su Chen's rhythm.
...….
While this new pair was enjoying their outing, in a dimly lit room, an equally younger woman was sitting pouting.
"Strange? Why is my elder sister Saori not home yet?"
"It's already 7 pm and there is no sight of her?….
she is always home by 6 pm, so where is she today?"
This younger version was, of course, Ichiko Mitshua, who had been lately tormented by Su Chen's profound emotional manipulation.
"Leave it!"
"It seems she might be hanging out with her stinky teacher friends, it's better to go out and eat something."
Ichiko Mitshua gave a wry smile, although the sisters live together in the same house, except for eating meals together, they didn't interfere much in each other's private lives.
"First Su Chen ignored and played with my emotions and now this sister of mine is out somewhere leaving me all alone."
"It's okay, I ...Ichiko Mitshua is a strong woman, I don't need anyone to accompany me."
"As a successful CEO, I can be happy alone."
"Now that I am going out, I have heard there is a famous Korean street restaurant known for their smoky barbecues, it's the best time to have fun eating there."
After getting up from the seat and changing into a casual dress, Mitshua too left the house.
But the thing she might see or discover may have a tremendous effect on her.
....
Similar to Ichiko Mitshua, Ye Fuang was walking back and forth on a shabby street with a gloomy face.
His mind was filled with countless questions.
His charm which had never failed before, had repeatedly failed since he came to this city.
Was there something special with the Ichiko sisters who were his targets?
Or was it because of that guy named Su Chen, who gave him a very cold and disgusting feeling?
Just the mere face of Su Chen was enough to incite his desire to kill him on the spot.
"Yes, it must be because of that treacherous guy named Su Chen."
"Just now I picked many naive girls out in an evening bar and all of them accepted my advances."
"He must be doing something to stop me from getting close to the Ichiko sisters."
This is the protagonist's standard ability- blame everything on the villain.
And who is the villain?— The other male closest to your future confidantes.
"But Su Chen, you don't know I have already climbed the ladder of the eldest sister, hahaha!"
