116 Time for a Game

In one lazy afternoon after the class is dismissed the students all begin to pack their books to return home.

The classroom is really simple with a long aisle to table on both sides for the student and a whiteboard in front where the teachers demonstrate lessons for the students.

Since Tony taken over his father's reign over the entire kingdom, he also made education available to man as well as woman.

Finishing packaging the books into her small grey backpack Zetian looks around at the other students around her age.

She sees her sister Qin Er talking with her large group of friends. Also, at everyone else who seems to be having so much fun with their buddies.

Yet she knows herself to be a little different than the others. Walking alone behind her sister as everyone exits the classroom.

Her face is turned downward as she walks, observing the white square tiles on the floor. It seems all like a familiar habit of hers when she walks.

As she walks outside the school gates without noticing she accidentally bumped into a man who towers over her height.

"I'm sorry," she touches the spot on her forehead where she accidentally hit the man before her. Looking up Zetian sees a familiar face smiling at her.

Smiling at her in a joking manner Tony said with a cheerful laughter, "It's okay I don't mind being accidently bumped into by you."

Under the sunshine Tony is wearing a light blue Han traditional ropes that flows gentle carried by the wind.

His long locks of straight black hair and those eyes seems to reflect the entire starry galaxy.

With a smile so charming in an easing way that would make anyone feel attracted.

"Why are you here?" Zetian asked with her eyebrows knotted together in observation of him.

He lowers himself till their faces were in the same height and their lips close to touching, "Is there a need of a reason to see the girl I love?"

His words so unexpected made Zetian blush, especially when it is spoken almost audible for all her classmates to hear.

"Who is that guy?" Tony's body shines with a unique aura of maturity and aristocratic royalty.

"Why does he seem so close with Miss Wu. I'm so jealous she's so lucky to know such a handsome gentleman.

"Maybe he is still single?"

Seeing all the girls that are noticing his boyfriend with heart-shaped eyes made Zetian feeling a new level of cautiousness.

Dragging his arm, she took him away from the school gate in a hurry, "Come with me."

Seeing how worried she seems as she drags him away made Tony smile.

Soon they arrived at some abandoned valley close to the school where nobody could find them.

Scanning the isolated surrounding of the alley Tony gives a curious glance at her then joked with laughter, "I didn't know you can be so…um…kinky my darling."

Hearing what he said Zetian begin to realize the strangeness and awkwardness of where she brought him.

Especially for its reputation from his classmates that it is where couples go to do 'those kinds of things'.

She playfully punches on Tony's chest in embarrassment, pouting her small cheeks, "Stop! What are you even thinking! Don't you even dare cross that line."

"Oh, what do you mean? What happens if I do cross that line?" Walking closer and closer up against her as Zetian takes step backward till she's backed against the wall.

Her little heart beating wildly as she realizes the close distance between his face and hers. Those wild and piercing eyes looking at her with desire.

There seems to be a strong tension that exists in the atmosphere.

Putting his left hand on the wall to block her escape. With his fingers he lightly lifts her chin and kisses those lips of hers.

When they part away his eyes observes her expression with a small smile, "You seem a little lonely when I saw you walking by yourself."

She averts her eyes away avoiding eye contact as her cheeks contain hints of the way her heart is beating excitingly.

"It is none of your business anyways," she says in a tiny voice, "…I just don't want you to worry. I'm already used to being alone."

She musters a smile on her face to tell him that it is nothing to worry about at all.

He knows that she wants him to feel rest assured even though he sees that she is still hiding some emotions in her heart to herself.

"Alright," he took her soft hands, "just know that I will be there if you need me."

"I know you will," Zetian says smiling happily.

"I want to take you somewhere today," Tony gives a mysterious smile as he took her by the hand away from the alley. It makes her wonder in her heart what kind of adventure will he bring her today.

Quickly following behind Tony, they arrived in front of a large establishment: a casino. She wondered for a bit why would he bring her to this place.

But when she looks up at the large words that are carved on the wooden board that hangs on top of the building, she knows it is the place where Zhang manages.

"Why are you bringing me here?" She asks with slight hesitation to enter those doors brimming with loud noises inside.

"Zetian do you believe in me," Tony asks her with a small playful smile on that handsome face that strikes into her heart.

Without a second of doubt she replied, "Yes." Her face reflecting a smile as she holds onto his reassuring warmth.

"Then let us start our adventure my lady," Tony gives a smile as he took her by the hand step by step inside the building.

In a single moment it seems as if the man that standing right before Zetian transformed into someone else.

Her heart beats a little faster admiring the uncontainable confidence that resides in him.
