Naruto In The World of Beautiful CEO

"Young miss, young master, how was it?"

Wang Ma occupied the seat beside Lin Kun's bed when Naruto and Ruoxi came through the door. She stood up in the instant and approached them with a concern on her face.

"Um, father's operation will begin in thirty minutes, they have to assemble the team first then wait for the rest of supply from the organ's bank," Ruoxi rubbed her temple, she dealt with a lot of affair since morning and now's situation overwhelmed her shape.

"Young miss doesn't need to worry, everything will be alright. Here, sit on this," Wang Ma pulled Ruoxi's hand and brought her to the chair she previously sat.

Ruoxi let Wang Ma guided her as she placed her bottom, she turned her head and smile with half-lidded eyes, "Thank you Wang Ma."

Wang Ma nodded and placed her hands on Ruoxi head, then she moved her fingers with a certain pressure.

"Umm..." Ruoxi closed her eyes, her face filled with enjoyment.

Naruto leaned his back against the wall, he looked at them with a chuckle, She really cares for Ruoxi, I can't really say I do not envy her...

"Young master, you must be tired too, wait until I finished ok? I'll massage you later," Wang Ma turned her head toward him and expressed her apology through her eyes.

Naruto startled, his face slightly turned red as he scratched his cheek, "Auntie Wang, you don't have to."

"Humph, why do you act all shy for, Wang Ma's massage skill was one of the best, it's your loss if you didn't taste it," Ruoxi glanced at him and sneered.

"Then I suppose have to accept it, I'm not fond with losses," Naruto shook his head and his face turned ugly.

Wang Ma and Ruoxi giggled at this, then Ruoxi turned her eyes at the unconscious Lin Kun, they reflected complicated lights.

Her emotion jumbled with many kinds right now, she's not going to be a hypocrite by saying happiness took absent.

This was a man used to show her disgust and hatred stare, hundreds if not thousands of curses, and numerous harsh slaps. She spent her life tried to understand the cause of his mortal grudge against her but she always met a dead end. She hated the man because he's not only hard on her but also toward her mother and her grandmother which was his wife and mother.

But now, he laid on this bed, hooked to a machine and feed upon nutritious liquids, she had been told that even if he awoke from this state, his broken nerve won't allow him to move again, severe trauma on his head will cause memory loss if not worst, become an idiot.

She felt stung on her heart, maybe in deep down, she still yearns for his acknowledgment and hoped someday in the future, he will treat her differently.

"Who did this?" Ruoxi's voice crammed with ice stones.

"I don't know..." Naruto said

"What happens when you get there?"

Naruto took a deep breath, "The place was smacked to ruin, every piece of equipment broke down, and there were two charred corpses."

Wang Ma and Ruoxi trembled when they heard there were corpses, the last week incident still lingered in their mind, no normal person would be recovered from such scene in a short time.

Ruoxi remembered her hard time explaining to the cops about the situation, excluding Naruto from her statement, she said they were robbers and went crazy from their distribution's handling. Of course, the cops won't trust her but she insisted, so they can only accept it.

"Wait, if others turned to corpses, why father still intact?" she glanced at him with doubt.

"Maybe he just lucky," Naruto shut his eyes and refused to say more.

"Lucky?" Ruoxi frowned, her eyes moved to Lin Kun then to Naruto again, her expression revealed a pondering look, though no one knows what she's on about.

"Maybe he did," Ruoxi turned her eyes away from him, but tenderness flashed before her eyes.

They both went silent, and Wang Ma fulfilled her word by massaging Naruto's shoulder and head.

Thought it wasn't best but it still feels good, at least she knows where to knead and the pressure was right.

Thirty minutes came in quick.

They all waited in front of double leaf door with a flashy sign on the above. It only turned on if there was undergoing an operation on the inside. Ruoxi laid on the set of blue chairs joined on a steel bar, it placed on either side of the wall. Her head rests on Wang Ma's lap as she stroked her with affection.

Naruto stood in front of the vending machine quite far from there, he pushed in a cash and pressed one of the buttons. A sound of clanking came from a hole covered with metal plate near the bottom of the machine. Naruto bent down and put his hand inside, he pulled it back and a latte appeared within his hold.

Naruto strolled away as he opened the can's cap and took a sip of what inside.

"Naruto? What are you doing here?"

When he turned at the corner, a voice belongs to a woman entered his ears. He quickly put down his drink and glanced at the person.

Her height was a few inches taller than him, her purple streak hair hanged one strain in front of her cheek and her smooth lips held a light lipstick on them. She wore a black coat with long pants on below.

"Sister Mingyu, it's a coincidence meeting you here," Naruto smiled and turned his body to face her.

"Oh please, we are outside of work, just call me Mingyu," Liu Mingyu chuckled and approached him

Naruto pondered for a moment, then nodded, "Alright, Mingyu then."

"What brings you here?" she asked while they walked together in the hallway.

"My father-in-law has an accident and now undergo an operation," Naruto lightly said.

"Oh my god, that's terrible, what happens?"

"It's..." he frowned a while, "it's a car accident."

She didn't notice his anomaly as her eyes revealed a sadness, " I'm so sorry Naruto, I wish for the best."

"Mingyu, thank you."

They walked until they found seats and placed their bottom altogether.

"Mingyu, what about you?" Naruto faced her with a raised brow.

"Oh, nothing really serious, it just my brother," she laughed while waving her hand.

"What happens to him?"

"He got caught in a fight and received light injuries."

Naruto wrinkled his brows, "How come he be treated in hospital if it was a light injury?"

Mingyu smile faded, replace with a helpless expression, "It's my mother's tantrum, she is worry too much and bothered me to take him to the hospital, despite our protest."

Naruto chuckled, "It's a fortune to have a caring mother like that."

"It comes with a grace and blight, for example, she won't stop bothering me to find a spouse," Mingyu shook her head in enervation.

"Ahaha, with your current age, you're indeed should have one in cradle already."

"You scoundrel, are you telling me that I'm old?!" Mingyu eyebrows snapped together, she raised her hand and pull Naruto's ear

"Aw, aw, ok, ok, I'm sorry..." Naruto groaned as he pleaded. Of course, it's not actually hurt, he just pretended to make her satisfied.

True enough, Mingyu let go his ear and hummed in delight, "That's what you get for mocking a woman's age."

"Yes, yes, I learn my lesson," Naruto rubbed his ear, annoyance showed in his tone, "but seriously though Mingyu, don't you have a boyfriend at least? You're beautiful, not to mention has a great figure, no one will have a second thought to reject you."

"Well, did you just compliment me?" Liu Mingyu leered at him with flirtatious eyes, "what if I have an interest in you?"

"If I'm single, I'll marry you in a heartbeat," Naruto straightened his back and punched his chest.

"Yet you already married, what would you do?" she fluttered her eyelashes.

Naruto closed his eyes and crossed his arms, after a while, he looked at her with a solemn face, "if you really love me, then I marry you too."

Liu Mingyu wrinkled her brow, "You divorced your current wife to marry me?"

Naruto shook his head, "I'll marry you both."

Liu Mingyu startled, her heart skipped a beat when she looked at his resolute face, she threw a mocking smile, "The rule said you can only have one marriage unless we having it on a different country."

Naruto curled his lips, "Screw the rule, and marrying off in a different country was the act of a coward, I just beat up anyone who uphold that rule until they permitted me to marry you."

"Even if that means you fight the entire country?"

"Even if I have to fight the entire country."

Liu Mingyu's heart shook like a massive earthquake on a high Richter scale. She's upset when he said someone who married again in a different country was a coward, but when she heard him willing to fight the entire country just for the sake of marrying her, it's impossible if she wasn't moved. Maybe in everyone thought, anyone who spoke such a thing either a boastful person, madman, liar, or dreamer. Maybe If she's hearing this from another man, she just sneered and considered him as a child who not understand how the world's work.

But he's... somehow different. His tone filled with confidence when he said he will demolish the entire country, his bearing filled with arrogance for not yielding under the rule settled on the stone.

She buried her face on her bountiful bosom, her face surprisingly turned red, it's been so long since anyone makes her feel like this.

"Um? Mingyu what happen to you?" Naruto stared at her with a confused look, he failed to see the ripe apple on her face since she turned her face down.

"Naruto! I have to go now, my brother is waiting for me!" she abruptly stood up and ran away, leaving behind Naruto who swarmed with question marks on his head.

(***)

"Um..." Ruoxi moaned as her eyelids trembling before they open. She lost track of times during her slumbering, but it seems the surgery yet to end. She writhed her alluring body from the less-comfort bed under her, her head wriggled to find a better position of the firm and hard yet warm pillow.

Wait, firm and hard? she wrinkled her brow, despite Wang Ma's age maturity, her body still in a good shape, and her routine of activity made several parts of her body still healthy and mellow.

After a few times of pondering, Ruoxi startled and quickly rose head. When it was supposed to be a middle age lady who entered her vision, it turned out a young man with blonde hair and closed eyes who appeared.

Her face dulled for a while before redness crept on her body, her body shivered as blood surged into her head when she prepared to explode, she noticed the man lacked reaction, she calmed herself and focused her observation.

The man sat with crossed hands, he wore a peaceful expression and his breath seemed laggard.

Is he sleeping? she leaned closer to gain more vision of the sleeping man. She frowned a little before she raised her hands, pushed out one finger, and poke the man's face.

"Stop that..." the man grumbled.

Ruoxi jumped in fright and her finger retreated like a frightened kitty. She planned to say sorry but realized the man no longer showed a further reaction.

"He is... talk in sleep?" her mouth twitched before she held it with both her hands to prevent her from laughing. She refused to believe of what happen thus she decided to brave herself to touch his face again. She's like a scientist who just discovered something new or a kid who curious about something.

"Go away..."

"Stop bothering me..."

"Leave me alone..."

Ruoxi almost burst out laughing, it seems she found something new and interesting to waste time. But nothing last forever, her new hobby quickly flushed down the toilet when she heard his next rambling.

"Jeanne, I swear if you do this again I'll..."

As if thunder roared in the desolate plains as a storm rushed in the clear sky, her inner world became chaotic, she's unable to hide the shock as it plastered all over her face.

Jeanne? Who is she? Ruoxi thought inside her jumbled mind, Is she... his girlfriend?

Ruoxi was a very smart woman, in three years, she could lead her enterprise to become a world-class fashion and cosmetic company. She managed to open the branch in three different countries and became one of the top leaders of the market in her own country.

If she can do such a feat, it's impossible for her not noticing small things like Naruto had a girlfriend or not. In these one week, he several times had came home really late, and there is this one time she smelled woman unique soap or shampoo on him. If it was a perfume than maybe he just has a little closer interaction, but soap or shampoo? It's clear he had done something beyond. She just made speculation at that time, but now it finally confirmed.

She smiled bitterly as she looked at him, I have no right to control him, he has done so much for me...

Our relations, was just a partnership between two accomplish.

She glanced at his lap, His girlfriend must be very lucky, to be able to lay her head many times there.

She sighed as she moved away and sat on the furthest chair from him, in this lonely hall, a man and woman sat in the same chair's set and there was an invisible wall separated them both.

An hour later.

"Naruto wake up."

"Hm?"

Naruto scrubbed his eyes and saw Ruoxi stood beside him.

"Ruoxi? What happen?" Naruto yawned and stretched his body.

"The operation sign turned off, they must have finished," she said with a slight bland tone.

Naruto didn't notice the strangeness inside her tone, he nodded, "How long I have been sleeping?"

"Since I'm awake? An hour..."

Naruto leaned his back and rest his arms on the chair, "Oh yeah, I have send Auntie Wang come home first so she can be here in the morning to look after Lin Kun."

"Um..."

"So I guess we have to make a shift between the three of us..." Naruto glance upward, "in the morning till noon, it's Auntie Wang's turn, the afternoon till evening will be me, and evening till night can be you, the rest can be three of us together here."

"Of course is not an iron-clad schedule, we can always change if necessary or go together."

"..."

Noticing the lack of response from the opposite party, Naruto turned his face at her and said with wrinkled brow, "Ruoxi?"

"Why?"

"Well, since I can't be late for work and you probably have important thing to do, it will be best for Auntie Wang to take over in the morning, I'm also new and didn't have much work in the beginning, so I probably can ask for early leave from Mo Qianni and change role with Auntie Wang in the afternoon."

"I mean why you care?"

"Huh?"

Naruto looked at her with a confused expression.

"Nevermind what I said, you don't have to take any leave, Wang Ma and I got it covered."

Naruto's eyebrows furrowed, he felt something odd with her behavior, "Are you sure?"

"Yes."

Naruto stayed still for a while, then he nodded, "Alright, I try to come over after work."

"...Suit yourself."

Naruto finally realized what was wrong, it's her tone that slightly cold whenever she spoke and her attitude has a hint of indifference.

Naruto frowned, "Ruoxi, is something wrong?"

Naruto tried to speak but the double leaf door suddenly opened and revealed a bunch of people with green clothes and one wheel bed with an unconscious man on the top of it. Ruoxi strode toward one of the doctors, Naruto also stood up to meet him.

"Doctor, everything went smoothly right?" Ruoxi said with a concerned voice.

The doctor smiled, "Madam Lin everything is fine, though we do have to check him up periodically to be really sure, then we can do the second surgery, mostly a week later."

Ruoxi let out a relieved breath, she rubbed her temple, "Thank you, doctor, I appreciate the effort."

The doctor nodded and excused himself from the couple. The hallway reverted back to a silent place with a man and woman stood there, each deep inside their own thought.

"Ruoxi I..."

Before Naruto finished his sentence, she turned around and walked away in hurry. Naruto stared at her figure that keeps getting far away, he scratched his head in frustration because of the lack of circumstance's understanding. First Mingyu and now Ruoxi. What the hell was wrong with them?!

(***)

The moon has reached the apex of its reign and now make it's path toward the fallen. Most places in Zhong Hai went asleep at this period, only a glitter of neons that still blinked, accompanied the king of the night in its final hours.

Several shadows raced on the road, their body crossed several paths in a blur and went slowly at every corner like a snail. They stopped in front of the building with quite remarkable decoration, red flower arranged along the entrance and expensive looking lights on the entrance both sides.

The shadows stopped a while, they seem to discuss something then three of them ran toward the building right side leaving one to stay at the entrance. They ran along the wall until they reached the very end of the building. Their hand reached for the left side of their belt and brought some sort of hook with a rope tied to it.

They twirled the hook by its rope and launched it to the upper part of the wall.

*clank*

The hooks successfully stuck at the top of the wall, they tried to pull it several times to test the rope strength. After glancing at each other, they grabbed the rope tightly and started climbing the wall.

They don't have any trouble once and less than five minutes they arrived at the top. They quickly pulled the rope, picked up the hooks, stuck them again on the opposite side, and let the rope dropped down to the ground. Using the rope again, they climbed down easily and without long, they landed.

The place they arrived was an open-air water pool with decorated plans and flowers on the side, a dragon-head statue like perched near the pool and breath out a stream of water.

The shadows cared no less for the view presented in front of them, with feet like lightning, they moved to pass by the dragon's head and carried on toward the glass door. They arrived then one of them crouched, he took out a pair of a thin spoon like but the head more narrow and slender.

He inserted them inside the key lock, it took him a full minute before the sound of click appeared. The shadow took his set of equipment back. He pushed the door and entered the room along with his comrade.

It's hard to see their surrounding, the lights were out and the moon hardly reliable. fortunately their objective still within the moon's light perimeter albeit only half of it. One of the shadows walked like thousands of nails place on the ground and he approached the bed in the room.

A beautiful young lady slept on the bed, her breathing's tone entered the shadow's ears, and he presumed she rest for real. Even without enough lights to see her appearance, the shadow knew his target's beautiful and alluring figure, inside his heart, he lamented for such a beauty must lost her life tonight, women considered to be one of the world's treasure, men as their keeper, losing one woman enough to make the world shed tears and shame for a man.

The assassin shook his head, his hand grabbed the right side of his waist and pulled out a short dagger from it. Its blade glinted at the light's reflection as his hand hovers the weapon above her, with a cold face and resolute eyes, he dropped it downward and stabbed the woman right on her chest.

When he thought job accomplish and his short dagger pierce the woman's heart, a puff sound shook their ears and smoke emerged from the bed.

*Bang!* *bang!*

Two men behind him fell one by one with a hole on their head, at the darkest spot on their right and a figure stood with a gun on her hand. The shadow's eyes unable to figure out the appearance, but he knew they screwed up this time. Refused to abort his mission and decided to risk his life, the shadow leaped over the bed while the figure shoots out the bullet from gun's barrel. The barrage of bullets hit the wall while none struck the shadow. Without letting his chance, the shadow strode forward and plunged to the side of the couch in the room. The figure lashed out her gun and empty the bullets on the couch, after a while, she thought her target already dead, she pulled out a magazine and dropped the used one.

At this moment, the shadow flushed out from the couch, with a short dagger readied in his hand, he dashed toward the figure and prepare to stab her. The figure became panic as she still in the middle of reloading, fastening her movement, she pushed inside the new magazine and cocked her gun then aimed toward the shadow, she managed to fire two bullets but the shadow covered his body with his hand and sacrificed them as fodder for the bullet.

The shadow reached within the short dagger range and thrust it out, his heart filled with pride and sense of achievement, no matter of one sacrifice or two or an entire team, so long they finished the task, the rewards like a mountain of gold awaited.

One indeed easy to dream but reality's truth always kicking hard.

*Poff!*

The shadow along with his dagger passed through the figure that disappeared in a smoke, his expression full in dazed as he unable to comprehend his situation.

*Bam!*

One leg hit the shadow right in his face, he fell backward and banged the floor with a loud sound. Then the suspect pressed his chest with her right knee and her left feet pressed on the man's knife hand. The shadow felt a cold feeling on his forehead, he opened his eyes and startled because the person who pressed on him possessed an extreme charming face without slightest impurity. Cold onyx eyes, crinkling dainty nose, and sneering thin lips.

The shadow knew he loses, he loses the fight against this woman who not only beautiful but also an expert. The man closed his eyes, waiting for his end, indeed, the woman refused to disappoint him.

"Bang!"

Outside the building, the only one left shadow wait in impatient, there is no sound beside cats make in love in some alley or dog barking in annoyance to these shameless cats. He felt annoyed from chose to be in the watch role and hoped for some action too.

*Thud*

Beside him, a person covered in rag fell, her clothes tore apart here and there, showing up her smooth and luster skin that lot of women dying to have. The person's eyes became heated, and since he bored, he decided to help her up and maybe get 'thank you' performance.

He grabbed her and put her in his bosom, a woman with that kind of skin impossible to be ugly right? Yeah, no.

The woman's face beyond ugly. Her eyes apart to wide from each other, it's like one in the west and another in the east. Her nose crooked to much even reached the twisted level and her lips form a horizontal "S".

The shadow too horrified with his new discovery, he failed to notice a small ball she held in her hand with a sort of hook on the other.

"Bam!"

The people in wine street doomed to unable to sleep in peace for tonight as a big sound broke the peace into thousands of fragment like glasses
