"Master, there will be a fireworks festival this weekend in the city center. Do you want to take Miss out there to see her?"
Moving Keanu's hand that was typing something on his laptop keyboard was stopped by Evan's speech. The man then raised his face. "Fireworks festival?" Evan nodded.
"If you take her there, surely Miss will be very happy. Do I need to prepare everything for you?"
"no need. I still haven't thought about it. You get out there, I still have a lot of work to do."
"Good, Master,"
Keanu thought about what Evan told him. Bring Ellena to see the fireworks festival? Not a bad idea, Keanu thought.
But how could she bring Ellena some fun, if she could just sit on a wheelchair without being able to do anything. Maybe Steven Xiao was the most appropriate answer.
The question is, is it really the best choice? Seems not, Ellena's good name could have been tainted until someone else saw her with another man while she was married.
Keanu was puzzled as to how now, could it be that he had to tell Ellena the truth if she was actually not disabled? It's impossible, it's too soon.
"Aarrrkkhh...." Keanu growled and grabbed his own hair. He's totally dizzy himself.
"Young Master, what's up?" suddenly Evan walked in after hearing his Young Master yell.
And hurriedly Evan lowered his face looking at Keanu's intimidating glare. "Who let you in? Didn't I ask you to come out? Why come back again?"
Evan bowed and apologized. Without saying a single sentence, Evan immediately darted out before being swallowed alive by His Young Master. Keanu has a terrible bad temper. And the eyes, Keanu is very creepy when he's angry.
"Miss, you coming?"
Evan stops his steps when he crosses paths with Ellena in front of the door of his Young Master's study. "Is your Young Master inside?" asked Ellena who was later nodding back by Evan.
"Oh, here's lunch for you. You've been working hard, and helping my husband all this time. You're also very patient in dealing with that very bad temper" Ellena said.
"You shouldn't bother, Miss. But thanks for lunch, I felt bad" Evan scratched his non-itchy nape.
"Just relax, and don't bother. Yeah, I'm in first." Evan nodded.
Meanwhile...
Inside the room, Keanu was dancing his long fingers over the keyboard. His face looked so solemn and did not show any expression, flat.
His fingers continued to move very quickly and accurately without making the slightest mistake. At the moment, the philosophy of time is money is right for him. But it may take a little change, that is, time is life.
Because for Keanu, every second was so precious as if he would die if it missed one second. Keanu is a calm, cold, and authoritative type of man. Even he could still be calm despite his agitated feelings.
Keanu's attention was instantly distracted by the sound of vibration on his desk, he was sure that the source of the vibration was coming from his phone. It seemed like someone was trying to contact her, but Keanu rubbed her and stayed focused on her work that was already a quarter way.
The tremors again tickled the workaholic Young Master's ear, Keanu was sure that the same person was trying to contact him again. Keanu ignored it.
Even he was in no mood to look at the screen to see who contacted him at a time like this. But his black eyes glanced slightly and caught the one name he had always known.
Leon....
Keanu squinted his eyes. It wasn't usual for her cousin's brother to contact her at this kind of working hour, could it be that something was important? thought Keanu.
Keanu got up from his seat and walked towards the glass wall beside his desk. Look at the city of Seoul from where it stands.
"What's the matter with you calling me? Not usually,"
"Is this how you talk to your handsome and shrewd cousin, Xi Keanu? Uhh, you're making me sad,"
Keanu sighed. "Stop being ludicrous, Leon Wu. Your joke makes me want to puke,"
And it felt like Leon wanted to boil Keanu in boiling water so that the cold nature could melt, oh and do not forget his sharp mouth like a dagger.
Good at this time Leon is not dealing directly with his cousin, because of course Leon's patience will be increasingly tested.
"Hn, if there's nothing important to talk about, I'll just close the phone!!"
"Keanu, tung-"
Tut's... Tut's... Tut's..
Keanu disconnected his phone connection just like that. And Keanu dared to swear that at this time his cousin must be showering him with various oaths.
Keanu then turned around and sat back in his wheelchair. Because it is very dangerous if suddenly someone is cheering in. The big secret can be revealed.
Keanu stared at the blue rose he had placed in a transparent vase. The flower still looked fresh, as Keanu filled the vase with water.
The flower was extremely precious and Keanu did not want it to wither.
Cklek...
The sound of the door opening distracted her. Keanu raised his face and it was Ellena who was smiling gently who was first caught by the net of his eyes.
"Are you busy? I came to bring you lunch" Ellena lifted the food box in her right hand.
"Why don't you come and call me first?" ask Keanu.
"Eo," Ellena gasped as she unintentionally, her irises looking at a familiar set of blue roses tucked away in a transparent vase on Keanu's desk. "This rose, isn't this the rose I gave Steven yesterday afternoon? Why is it here?" gunam Ellena is confused.
Ellena raised her face and looked at Keanu who was also staring at her. Keanu did not show any expression, flat.
Ellena's eyes widened when she realized something. "Of!! Don't tell me if Steven Xiao and you are the same person. And you're... Actually okay and just pretend to be paralyzed?" Ellena screeched and looked at Keanu in disbelief.
"Why do you think that?" asked Keanu coldly. "Such roses aren't just your store that sells them." Keanu.
Ellena shook her head. "No, Keanu. Flowers in my shop and in other stores have differences, and I memorize whether they are from my store or not, even if I just see them at a glance. You no longer have any reason to lie, Xi Keanu. And if you still value me as your wife, you better tell me the truth!! Because I don't want any secrets between us!!"
Keanu took a deep breath and ignored him. The man got up from his wheelchair and walked around Ellena. And of course what his eyes witnessed, made Ellena surprised instead of playing.
Ellena covered her mouth with both hands. He wanted to scream right now. But his tongue felt bad.
"Ja-So right, ji-if you're not really paralyzed? And that means, Steven Xiao is you?" Ellena was still staring at Keanu in disbelief.
Ellena shook her head. "Crazy, this is crazy. I feel like I'm being played with, I'm being too stupid or you're being too mean? I really feel like I've been toyed with, I'm so disappointed." Ellena wiped her tears.
"Are you just going to leave without giving me a chance to explain?" said Keanu quickly.
"Listen to me, Ellena..." Keanu grabbed Ellena by the shoulder and stared into her brown bead.
"I never intended to lie to you let alone play you. I have a reason why I pretended to be paralyzed and become, Steven Xiao. My mother died 15 years ago in a terrible accident, I was in a coma for a year after that terrible accident."
"Although I was in a coma, I survived. But Mom didn't, Mom died at the scene. Before I was unconscious and declared in a coma. I remember vividly when Mom told me to get back what was mine."
"After preparing yourself carefully. I finally decided to return to the Xi family as a crippled and useless man. That night, it could be said to be a long night for the Xi family. The most terrifying night they had never imagined." Keanu took a pause and looked at Ellena who was also staring at him.
Keanu led Ellena's hand and took the girl to sit on the sofa, and Ellena obediently followed. "What happened after that?" ask Ellena, curious.
"A nightmare." Keanu answered briefly. "You want to believe it or not, that night I killed my own father. And I did it right in front of Marry and her two children, and from then on the Xi family's power I took over. Including with Xi Empire that was previously in the hands of my father's half-brother and Xi Dante!!"
"So the point is that you pretended to be paralyzed just to destroy the Xi family and find the mastermind behind your mother's death?" Keanu nodded, very unreasonable indeed. But that's how it happened. "And what about, Steven Xiao? Why you..."
"Because I want to protect you." Keanu interrupted quickly. "Actually Steven Xiao was there long before we met on that day. Because by being Steven Xiao I can be more flexible in carrying out all my plans. And little by little the truth about the accident is starting to get to a bright spot."
"Who are you then? Steven Xiao or Xi Keanu?" ask Ellena, curious.
"Both, neither Xi Keanu nor Steven Xiao are the same person."
Ellena nodded heavily. "I don't know what to do now. Disappointed in you for lying to me, or for being proud of having such a great husband." Ellena was confused.
Keanu grinned. He fell on Ellena's chin and then briefly kissed her lips. "You should be proud, dear." Her speech.
Ellena pushed Keanu's chest. "Don't touch me!! I've already decided to get upset with you, so don't expect you to be able to get my lips for now and until some time ahead!!" Keanu chuckled, then he covered Ellena's face and smeared** her lips.
"But unfortunately I cannot accept it, for that you must be punished!!" Keanu again covered Ellena's face and...
Geck... Geck... Geck..
Keanu sighed furiously. Ellena cheered in her heart. "Haha... Looks like Goddess Fortuna is siding with me!! Go back to your desk, I'll see who's coming." Ellena gave a triumphant smile.
"Prepare yourself, because tonight you must take my punishment!!"
Ellena's footsteps stopped and her body stiffened. Stiffly he turned his head back and found Keanu who was grinning at him by the devil.
Geck.. Geck... Geck..
"President, may I come in?"
"Hn, come in." Sahut Keanu. Then Keanu moved his finger and hinted for Ellena to come to him, Ellena shook her head. "Come right now, or will I attack you here?" threaten Keanu who sounds earnest.
Ellena pursed her lips, stomping her feet she approached Keanu. Ellena stood next to her husband's wheelchair.
The door of the room opened, and a sexy-looking woman was seen bending her body towards Keanu. "President, these are files from all departments. You can check it."
"Hn, uh,"
"I'll excuse you then." And before leaving the woman took the time to look at Ellena.
The grin on Ellena's lips became clearer as the woman clenched her hands to see that she placed her hands on Keanu's shoulders. And without saying anything, the woman immediately gawked away.
"Haha..." And Ellena's laughter immediately exploded that very second. "Of!!" his eyes widened, feeling the pull on his arm.
And the next second his body was already on Keanu's lap. "You're getting bolder, honey. For that you must be punished!!" both of Ellena's eyes widened instantly.
"WHAT!!!"
