A Race to Melt Hearts

He continued signing the papers and seal it with both the Ming and Yuan Seals. He put the legal documents in his case as his own possession, at least I'll be assured that my sister would be safe when I'm gone.

"I have a problem" he murmured

"You don't run out of problems so what's the big deal?" I smirked

"No it's not that easy, this problem is bigger than I've thought it should be" so he was saying that he's been underestimating the cause. That's something new to hear from him.

Let's say Yuan Jester Yan is different from other businessman, he's known someone who meticulously plans ahead strategically to avoid loopholes and he always avoid mistakes; thus he never underestimate the problems that arise within his watch no matter how small it is.

"That's something new to hear from you bro, now spill, what is it?"

"I need your help Gee" I halted my actions, he never call me 'Gee' unless it's something serious or unusual. And asking for favours is difficult for him, we grew up together, with him being independent towards anyone. Now something's going on, it's fishy, and I'm sure it's a big one.

"Spill you idiot!" I throw an appetizer wrapper at him, it swiftly landed on his face. Imagine my shock when he didn't move, it's so uncommon from him, because most of the time he'll dodge the idiotic attacks that I playfully make.

"I need you to..." But I can see the distaste and hesitance in his tone, hmm self argumentation. What's up with this man, why is he acting so stupid today?

"You need me to? What exactly..."

"I need you to... Findmeabride!"

"Did you just pulled a rap music at me? I'm not a robot, repeat it"

"What?" He asked dumbfounded

"I said repeat what you've said"

"I need you to... HelpmefindasuitableBride!"

"I SAID SLOWER!!!"

"I TOLD YOU, I NEED YOU TO HELP ME FIND A SUITABLE BRIDE!!!"

"WHY ARE YOU SHOUTING!"

"YOU FREAKING SHOUTED FIRST!"

"WHY THE HELL ARE WE SHOUTING!"

"I DON'T FREAKING KNOW!"

When the details sink in, it made me laugh.

"Wtf? You need my help to find you a bride?" I can't stop laughing, while he glared at me.

"Shut up Gian!" He warned

"What's the catch?"

"I need to secure that I'll have an heir"

"Stupid Jester, just stupid, why not pay someone who can be a baby maker machine? Just tell the girl, no strings attached"

"I can't"

"Why?"

"My grandfather's will won't let me inherit the company if that happens"

"Fine, we'll look for someone else"

But his eyes sparkled looking at me. What the heck is running in his mind?

"I have an idea, I don't need your help now."

"What do you mean?"

"I'll drag your sister" he then ran out of the room before I can even make a response.

"F***ing bastard! You dare touch my sister!" I shouted

He gets what he wants, I just hope he'll take care of her.
