Chapter 472 Youre worse than me
Chen Residence.
Hinari was whispering at Little Shin after the two stepped out of a certain room. "Don’t show this to your dad okay?" she said and the little bun tilted his head as he looked at her curiously.
"Why can’t i shoew him?"
"Well, uhm... your dad is always on your uncle’s side so he might not let you do our plan if he sees this. Yeah, I mean... Hmm..." Hinari obviously looked troubled. She didn’t know how to explain. She also can’t say that she trusted little Shin more than his daddy the great. Well, Hinari knew just how close the relationship between those brothers was. That was why, she was sure that Sei the great would always support Zaki’s decision in the end so she couldn’t help but be wary of him as well.
"Well, yeah. Little Shin, it’s because..." as Hinari was still struggling to find the right word to say, the little boy suddenly held her hand and he smiled as though he already understood her, surprising Hinari to the core.
"Mm. I got it auntie. I understand. Since dad is on uncle’s side, this time, I’ll be on your side. Mommy actually asked me to be on your side in her place, so please don’t worry. I won’t let dad stop me even if he sees this." Little Shin said and Hinari’s mouth hung open. She was so surprised that she couldn’t speak for a while.
She then knelt before him as she exclaimed, "Oh my god! My baby boy! Thank you so much! I so love you!"
Hinari couldn’t help but shower her adorable partner in crime, with hugs and kisses. She wanted to show him how glad she was that he was with her right now.
"Okay, I’ll go hide now auntie. It’s already dark so I guess they’re coming soon."
"Okay little darling."
"Auntie, do your best!"
"Mm. I’ll do my best! Tonight, your uncle will become mine, completely and officially mine!"
"Mm. I’m rooting for you auntie!"
After the two fists bumped, little Shin finally walked away, leaving Hinari smiling widely as she watched the little guy leave.

Meanwhile, outside the mansion, Kir and Ryou were standing beside a black car that arrived some time ago. They were looking at each other as though they were silently asking why the hell the two weren’t coming out yet. The two bodyguards didn’t have any idea that Zaki was actually so nervous he was having a hard time calming himself down.
"Sigh... Who would have thought that you’re actually worse than me?" Sei’s voice rang inside the car as Zaki leaned his forehead on the car’s window.
"Shut up Sei. You’re worse than me! At least I can still speak just fine. Did you forget how you became deaf and mute when you were in my situation?" Zaki retorted and Sei smirked.
"Oh, are you sure I’m worse? We arrived ten minutes ago and you’re still here."
"I know! Tch! Why can’t I calm down?! At this rate, I might even start shaking. Damn, I didn’t know this confession thing felt like this."
"Haha. Zaki, listen to big bro and just go ahead. If you’re planning to wait for you to calm down then forget about confessing tonight because you will never calm down even if you wait until dawn." Sei was smiling as he spoke, looking at Zaki like an amused old man.
"Or why don’t you sing? I remember you gave that advice during my wedding day." He continued with his same amused expression and Zaki could only bit his lip. His ears began to hear nothing but his own heartbeat and breaths.
Zaki never thought that his rhythm would be easily thrown away as if it was a mere paper plane. He never thought that he who didn’t even know how to feel nervous or pressured before was now feeling like this. Thinking about it, he realized that he really was a normal human right now. He could now feel what every normal person felt. All of these were feelings that were so new to him and it was overwhelming for him.
’So this is how it feels, huh. Damn, my heart felt like it’s jumping all over the place. I never even felt this nervous when I was at death’s door. How could I speak properly to her if I’m like this?’
As Zaki was speaking to himself, Sei’s hand suddenly landed on his head. He ruffled Zaki’s hair, causing the man to snap out of it and look at Sei with an annoyed gaze.
"Zaki, if you want to stay here, I’m going inside. Postpone your confession tomorrow since it looks like you’re not ready yet." Sei said and without waiting for Zaki’s reply, he opened the door and stepped out.
However, before Sei could take a step towards the entrance, Zaki grabbed his shoulder from behind.
"Wait right there Sei! Who said I’m not ready? You know I can’t waste any more time!" As Zaki said those words, a smile momentarily carved on Sei’s face before he turned to him.
"So? You’re going now?"
"Of course! So you guys stay here. Don’t you dare interrupt me!"
"Good. That’s the spirit!"
"Don’t worry fourth boss, we’re rooting for you! Fighting!" Ryou cheered from behind while Kir just said the words "do your best!"
Hearing them, Zaki was so embarrassed he quickly turned his face away from them. But before he could step away, Sei’s hand landed on his shoulder.
"If anything goes wrong, don’t hesitate to send me an S.O.S. I’ll just be here, standing by." Sei whispered and Zaki’s veins could only pop again. He removed Sei’s hand on his shoulder as he spoke.
"I got it already! Ahh... these people! I’m going now, don’t follow!" He said as he quickly walked away towards the entrance.
When Zaki reached the door and held the door knob, his heart dramatically accelerated. He then took a long deep breath before he slowly pushed the door open.
