Suho leaned against the deck with his head lowered. He did not feel at ease. Although he was not against the idea of two men getting together, that was only if it did not involve him. Now that he had reached the point where he could not back away, what should he do? Did he really have to become husband and wife with Yixing ?

But they were both men, how should they live together? Even though it was just for a year, yixing’s request was too much for him. The thought of getting intimate with another man made Suho frustrated to no end.

Sensing the frustration and struggle within the young man, Yixing did not think of compromising himself. When two people really got together, there were things that they could not avoid. That was why he would rather have Suho mentally prepare himself and feel at loss for the time being rather than having issues after they are married that would hurt their relationship.

Yixing was intense and overbearing. He would not allow suho any reason to reject him. The only way that their relationship would last was if he could open his mind and accept it. He did not plan to be a married couple with suho for only a year. The only reason why he promised him that was so that he would not feel repulsed when he was spending time with him.

“Suho , I know that you can’t accept it immediately, but I want you to know that the reason why I agreed to marry you wasn’t just to obey granny’s arrangement. Because it’s you, I agreed.”

Suho looked at Yixing in surprise – what did he meant by that? Could it be that he liked him?

But that was totally impossible.

Yixing left his seat and walked to the front of Suho ; he held suho’s hands in his naturally and pulled him into an embrace. Suho tried to struggle out of the hug but Yixing tightened his arms and calmed the restless little lad with his deep voice, “suho , now that I’ve agreed to marry you, it’s only natural that I would treat you with sincerity. No matter what comes our way, please believe in me, and that I’m marrying you out of my own will.”

Suho looked up from the embrace with his bright eyes. That person was giving him a guarantee, hoping to assure him? For a marriage that was based on power and monetary transactions, how long could it last? How could he expect him to believe in him just because he said so?

Yixing saw through the doubts in Suho’s gaze. “I don’t want to promise you anything for now; it’s only us that matters in our future. Just wait and see.”

Suho lowered his gaze, “I’m not worth your efforts.”

Yixing’s eyes darkened, “Putting aside all reasons, I’m just me, the Zhang Yixing that wants to marry Kim Junmyeon . Just an ordinary man.” He paused and smiled suddenly. “The thoughts in your little mind are impressive.”

“No surprise, old man. Just ask anyone who got sold off and forced into a marriage, who could possibly stay calm?” suho retorted as the unpleasant feeling in his heart rose up again.

Yixing’s smile widened as he heard suho’s childish words, and he lightly slapped on his butt as he continued, “Am I that old? I’m your man, I forbid you to talk to me like that.” He turned to look at Suho with his stone face as he finished.

Suho , who had never had his butt slapped by anyone in his entire lifetime, shoved Yixing away, “Are you crazy? Why did you hit me? And, I’m warning you, don’t say things like ‘I’m your man’ etc., or else I’ll show you what I can do.”

Yixing quickly tightened his arms around the agitated Suho , “Alright, calm down, I’ll stop,” he comforted. “Suho , I hope that you’ll face up to our marriage. It may have a rocky beginning, but that’s because we are not in one another’s life. So don’t rush to reject it.”
