《Languor || Zhong Chenle》Doing Great
Advertisement
I'm standing still, looking at Chenle.
Chenle asked when i take too long staring at him.
I lift my right arm and hold my fingers out while bending my elbows, waiting for him to escort me ten feet forward to the car. Chenle looks at me, flustered, then starts walking up to me. Hrvy starts to panic and rush to the car to open the door.
Chenle positioned himself beside me before holding my hand with his left one and started walking. Hand in hand. I lift my dress a little with my left hand when we pass the stairs.
Chenle said.
Smiling freakishly with his slightly blushed face, residual from when he was flustered. The car is in front of me, Chenle let me step forward into the car before doing so himself.
"It's okay, i heard you have flawless manners," i said.
Chenle looks at me. Slightly flustered by the way i spoke.
In high society, what i said is an insult. When one said they heard that the other have flawless manners when the other had just made a mistake is a way to express insult. The one that made the mistake usually gets ashamed upon hearing that.
In high society, almost all of the insults are sugarcoated.
I curved my lips.
"Ha, look at me," i said in my head, boasting that i had just insulted this grumpy thing with such a subtle burn.
Chenle responded.
Hrvy drives the both of us to the restaurant. No music is being played in the car. The silence is almost palpable to my tastebuds. The ride continues as normal as it can be.
The scenery turn into the busy city street, leading the vehicle to a big building that is right by the car by now. I almost move my hand to open the door before i stop, waiting for Chenle.

He sighs.
Chenle then walk to the other side of the car and wear his hand out to help me out and again, walk hand in hand to the building. Classical music plays faintly in the entrance of the building, gradually turning into a constant hum.
Chenle and i arrived at the table. He slid out the chair and wait for me to sit before taking a seat in front of me.
He won't let any other chance for me to ridicule him.
How unfortunate.
I noticed a few eyes here and there looking at us. Some whispering to their partners upon seeing the sight of Chenle and i. A pair even look at me with disgusts.
The dinner course begin.
From the first course to the last one, i pour all of the knowledge that was rammed into my head. No flaw. I'm certain of what i'm doing.
Chenle complimented, going in with his cat calling habit.
I smirk at him. Purposedly swirling the red wine around the glass and taking a subtle whiff before sipping into it.
Underage drinking.
I did it.
Not exactly proud.
Chenle said with a sinister smile.
"I'm only giving the chef a credit, i'm sure you also understand that sir," i responded.
Chenle said, annoyed.
Chenle must be waiting for me to make mistakes since the start. This boy and his nature.

A loose thread
The goddess picked him up. He tried to struggle free, but her grip only tightened. Eventually her thumb caught his head, pulling it backwards. He stared helplessly as she brought her free hand closer, revealing a small vial in her massive hand. She pressed it to his lips, and he felt the contents flow into him. He tried not to drink it, but his body would not listen. Despite his revulsion, his body ignored him by drinking deeply. "Drink and forget. I will give you everything you ever wanted. A loving family. A comfortable home. And then, " Her grip tightened, and forcing the air out his lungs. He coughed up the strange liquid and caused more to spill. “And then, you will pay for your defiance. On your twentieth birthday you will remember.” She pulled the vial away and turned him to look at her. “You will remember, just as everything you love is taken from you, right before your eyes…” Her voice trailed off and his world went dark. .... The above leads right into the story. The first chapter is a bit rough as the MC (a child at the time), hurts himself rather badly. I will try to include similar warnings on chapters as the story goes on, but I want to be up front that I may miss or forget things. Many of the tags are included so I can have flexibility writing the story. I am posting this largely to hold myself accountable to keep writing. Chapters will be short, but I am planning to post weekly. This is the first thing I have written (you've been warned). I am enjoying the story and I hope you will too. Please feel free to let me know what you think of the story as it progresses.
