Game of Pool [1]
"You need to answer my question first. Actually, two questions since I managed to goal two balls" she says, a glinting smile on her face. her hands rest on the rails of the table as she gazes at him.
"Alright. Shoot" he agrees.
"Why do live here alone?" her question made him raise a brow.
His lips are pursed and his eyes darken. At that moment, she thinks he will not be answering her but to her surprise, he speaks, "I prefer my own company rather than living with crowds of people. Peace, silence, serenity, I like them."
His assertive answer didn't make her amused as she already knows he doesn't like being in a roomfull of people. "Why do you know all these chores? As far as I know, you are the heir of one of the richest families in Asia" she drops her second question.
Zichen's mouth quirks into a smirk. He says, "I like doing things for my own."
