PROMISE ME YOU WON'T LEAVE

Chapter Two

Fu Jùnjié

  "Excuse me?" I said and she looked up

"Yeah?" She replied and I hesitated but I didn't know any other way to get out of this stupid mess I put myself in

"I need to ask something from you, please listen to me carefully," I said

"Okay," She said and sat up "What is it?"

"Be my girlfriend" I said, Her face was expressionless then she tilted her head frowning and a strand of her hair fell out of place

"Why," she asked and I sighed.

"My parents have been pressuring me to find a girl, get married, have babies, and stuff like that, which I do not intend to be involved in for now"

"So you're gay?" She said and I stopped in my sentence, when did I ever mention that

"No, I'm not" I replied "Well my old man I mean my grandpa started sending me off to blind dates with girls that lack pretty much manners," I said running my hands through my hair and she giggled.

"Just tell them the truth, I'm sure they'll understand," She said

"Trust me, I have tried," I said and she looked down "Just for 6 months, be my fake girlfriend for 6 months then after that we can continue with our own lives"

She looked up "Do we have to kiss?" She asked

I raised an eyebrow, she looked concerned about the kiss part, does she have a boyfriend. I shook my head as the thought of her kissing another man sparked some kind of anger in my heart, I clenched my fists "No, we don't have to" I said  "Is that a yes?"

"I would still have to think of it, is that okay," She asked.

I nodded "Yes it's okay, We would sign a contract later, but for now you should get some rest" I stood up.

"Wait" She shouted and I turned back "When can I leave?"

"When you are better and can walk" I bent over and tuck the strand of hair behind her ear, her cheeks turned a bit red and I smiled a bit "I will see you later," I said and walked out.

I sighed and put my hands in my pocket "Jùndé let's go" I said and he came out from behind the tall vase

"Dude how did you know I was there without looking," He asked scratching the back of his head and I ignored his question

"How's he?" I said going down the stairs and he followed behind

"His autism is getting a little better," He said and I stopped.

"What do you mean a little?" I asked

"He still can't talk and doesn't want to relate with anyone other than me in the whole hospital and he's relating with me a bit more," He said and sighed, I continued down the stairs, putting my hands in my pocket and entered the sitting room to see my son staring at nothing

"Zǐxīn" I called his name and knelt in front of him, he jumped down from the sofa and hugged me. I patted his hair and kissed his forehead.

"How are you feeling?" I asked hoping he'd talk, but he just nodded. I sighed disappointed and lifted him.  "Come on, you need to rest" I turned to Jùndé, who was holding the TV remote and I frowned "I didn't call you here to watch TV"

"Oh cmon, I haven't had a break since forever," He said grumbling, and I ignored him

"Meet me in the study in 10 minutes," I said climbing up the stairs, I opened the door to the guestroom, walked to the bed, and, laid him down. I opened the nightstand drawer and brought out a tablet. "Here" He sat down and I handed it over to him
