Char Siu meets Shuei

I decided not to attend school anymore, after Shouko moved 2 weeks ago... there was no reason left to attend so I just payed to take the exams and now I graduated from Elementary 1 year early. I spend most of my days at home, practicing cooking or playing piano and violin and sometimes learning of what the Shuei Clan is involved in. I helped Ryu greatly with business tactics and give him advice in how to run the clan's casinos and clubs.

In this version of Nisekoi, maybe because my dad felt that he needed to protect me and my brother he didn't soften at all. More like he made the Shuei one of the most notorious yakuza in Japan... spreading their name to neighbouring countries as well.

I was in my room playing multiple pieces by Chopin(my favourite classical composer), before my dad called me downstairs.

Issei: "Rei! Come here and play with little Yui over here, the daughter of one of my old acquaintances. She's the same age as you so you should get along pretty well, while me and her old man catch up on things." He orders me, right next to him was a cheerful, beautiful looking girl; she had short, silky dark violet hair, her eyes were the same colour.

When she saw my appearance, she started fidgeting slightly with a tinge of red on her cheeks....*Im truly sorry Raku.... but I guess that now it's easier for you to get Onodera.* I thought as I stole yet another of Raku's harem members.

Issei: "Rei, she doesn't know Japanese that well so I need you to help her out." He then leaves the two of us alone.

Yui: "Hello" She spoke with a heavy Chinese accent.

Rei(currently speaking in mandarin): "You don't have to struggle, I understand you perfectly fine if you speak mandarin" I was surprised at myself for saying this perfectly, while Yui just widens her eyes.

Yui: "You can speak mandarin! Oh my god, this helps so much!" She exclaims loudly with a bright smile on her face.

Rei: "Yes I can. Here, let me give you a tour around the house." I tell her as I offer my hand which she grabs, I then start leading the way through the mansion.

-one hour later-

Yui: "*huff* I thought only I had a house this big...." she breathes heavily even though she insisted we run most of the way.It takes a few moments before she catches her breath but shot her head up as if she suddenly had an idea."Can we go see your room?" She asks with glittery eyes.

Rei: "Sure, just follow me." I then lead both of us to my huge room, a violin in the corner of the room leaning on my bed and a grand piano in the centre in all of its glory. Yui scans the room and her eyes stop on the piano, then turns her head toward me with pleading eyes.

Yui: "Can I hear you play? Please? I don't care if you just started learning..." She asks me, her voice a couple of pitches higher.

I just nod my head lightly and make my way the grand piano, while she sits on my bed. I started playing 'Nocturne in C sharp minor', my fingers gliding across the keys. She. I finish the song I turn around, only to find that she's no longer on the bed and she's inches away from me. Realising that the song is over, and no longer mesmerised, she realises her position and blushes slightly while turning her head to the side. I however decide to break the atmosphere, and I realised it turned kind of awkward.

Rei: "Lets go back, there're probably waiting for us to eat lunch." I then get up, take her hand and leave the room in a hurry...not realising that her blush just deepened.

After we eat lunch, the adults were looking softly at me and Yui talking to each other in mandarin.

Rui's Father: "Issei, you didn't tell us that your son can speak mandarin" he talked while glancing at me and Yui.

Issei: "Haha.... I had no idea either... he's umm.... a little too smart for his age?" He then chuckles while rubbing the back of his head.

Yui's father seemed to be thinking about something before deciding to speak again."Issei, I have some business in Japan... so I'll be here for a week. Why don't we let the two youngsters...you know... spend more time with each other. Yui doesn't have any friends her age." He spoke, without even trying to hide his intentions.

Issei gave his own nod of approval, both of them now looking at me and Yui with a knowing look in their eyes.

Rei: *We can hear you...* I thought but then sighed as Yui doesn't understand Japanese, so she didn't hear about their 'secret' plan.

The whole week goes by with me taking Yui around town, visiting amusement parks or her listening to me play the piano and violin. There were times I tried to teach her, but she refused to sit close to me so I gave up. She also met Raku.... but didn't have much of a reaction, other than finding him cute.

It soon approached the end of the week, and her dad is now waiting for her outside.She walks to the front door, but turns around with a smile on her face.

Yui: "I've made up my mind." She spoke softly, but with resolution while looking me in the eyes.

Rei: "On what?" I ask, tilting my head and narrowing my eyes confusion.

Yui: "On making you play music for me,and me only." She blushes heavily at her words, and quickly dashes to her father. I waved goodbye to her, and went back to my own room.
