After explaining the situation to his two kids, the middle-aged man remains on his spot on the couch, patiently waiting for any response from the two youths across from him.

On the other couch sat Lee Yeeun and Lee Jeno, the children of Mr. and Mrs. Lee. Both of the said youths ponder in thought after hearing their father's topic.

They've never heard about the Nakamoto family like they sometimes would with other people who come and go in the business industry.

However, their dad told them the Nakamoto family's business isn't too big and well-known, it's also not that successful either.

Thus, they had that meeting, asking for some help and deals.

To which, Lee, had obviously agreed to after some time of listening and thinking.

Both Yeeun and Jeno are aware how nice their father can be, a noble and wise man for someone running in the business industry as it's been rare nowadays to have people like him.

They're a little skeptical at first. But if their father agreed to it, he must have thought about it good enough and made sure that whatever deal they have, is beneficial for both parties.

"So an arrange marriage?" Yeeun was the first one to speak up after several minutes later.

Although, Lee understands and has enough patience for almost anything. After all, not everyone can think fast even if they're really smart and successful.

You always have to make sure of what you're thinking, like a quiz or an exam, review your work before passing the paper.

Nodding, their dad leisurely leans forward to grab the cup of tea that was prepared for them on the coffee table in the middle. "I'm letting you two decide who'll be their son's partner."

"However, if both of you disagree, which I would completely understand. I can try to think of something, another deal they'll be satisfied with."

He soon adds on before taking a sip of the hot Chai tea, humming happily at the sweet yet spicy taste. It was just right.

He'll remember to thank his wife later after this small meeting as she's busy with her own paperwork. But fear not, she's already informed about the situation.

Seeing his kids glance at each other, he smiles at them. "No pressure, as always, okay? Your decision is valid in this." He talks them through it to make sure they're not doing it just for others.

After one more blink of their eyes, Lee lowers his teacup onto the coffee table. "I'll do it." Looking up to meet one of his children's gaze.

"Are you sure, JenJen?" He asks his son, the youngest, with a soft look on his face.

Yeeun does the same, just silently staring at her younger brother, confused and concerned if he's really sure about this.

"Yes, I accept this deal, papa." Jeno nods, his tone firm yet he smiles sweetly. His eyes turning into crescent moons with his cheeks high up.

"You're not doing this because they want you to, remember that, son." Lee sighs, knowing too well that his son is just like him. Maybe even more.

Jeno's a kind-hearted person, some even call him the 'golden boy' in school because of it. However, sometimes it's just too much. Sometimes.

Unlike Yeeun, who got her personality from her mother. A little feisty and intimidating, but they're the sweetest when you get to know them.

Pouting, Jeno whines at their dad. "I'm not~ I promise, I accept this arrange marriage because I want to!" Convincing his father all while.

"I didn't know you were into that sort of cliché thing, lil' bro." Yeeun teases beside him, pinching the puffed out cheek in an affectionate manner.

Huffing, Jeno shrugs his shoulders and replies. "I'm taking this as an opportunity to find a partner."

Almost regretting it when his elder sister grins at him, "oh? Why not the boys in school? Don't you have many admirers?" It was his dad who asked, making Jeno scoff lightly.

"Yeeun noona said she doesn't approve of them," a quick reply to their dad's question.

Raising a brow at his daughter, Yeeun held her hands up in surrender. "I'm just protecting him, dad." She excuses.

"But you started your love life when you were fourteen." Her younger brother squeaks out beside her. "I'm older than fourteen..."

"If you're into baddies, like me, JenJen." She snorts at her dad rolling his eyes. "Relax, dad."

"Back to the topic." Lee sighs and taps his fingertips on his thigh in a rhythm. "Jen, I'm giving you more time to really be sure about this."

"And I already made my decision, dad. I want to do this." Jeno, a little stubborn for them right now, says. Crossing his arms in addition with his pouting lips.

Yeeun leans back to the backrest and crosses her arms as well, raising a brow as her younger brother continues.

"Besides, Eun noona already has a girlfriend." Resulting the said elder sister choke on her spit, gasping for air while their dad face palms.

"Jen!" She hisses.

"What? They already know, we saw you on the security camera with–" unable to finish his words due to Yeeun slapping her palm on his mouth.

"Jen, you sound desperate– maybe you are. But it's like, you're making this as a speed dating kind of thing." She says, quickly trying to change the topic back to her younger brother.

Pulling the hand off his mouth so he can reply, Jeno pouts at her this time instead at their dad. "Maybe," earning a glare from Yeeun.

As always, his elder sister is being protective. But she has some points regarding to his crazy decision.

Besides, arrange marriage deals isn't foreign to them. They've heard it, they've received it countless of times from both greedy and horrible people and from actually nice ones.

For the latter, they only rejected them because they weren't ready and their little 'dates' didn't really made them click with their temporary partners.

But this time, Jeno feels like he's ready. And maybe, just maybe, this time as he's about to say:

"This could be the one, I've been looking for 'the one' guy in my life, noona. Can I atleast try this out with him?"

Glancing towards their dad, Mr. Lee purses his lips before smiling a little and says.

"Alright, but if you ever want to cancel this agreement. You can always tell me anytime, I have my ways." Finally giving in to Jeno's crazy decision.

All he got from that was a thank you hug from the said boy, squealing and chanting 'thank you's' every now and then as he couldn't stop smiling.
