Three days passed since Zhia Xiang finished her last mission.
âAre you ready for a new mission, subject #654, Zhia Xiang? â agent 0 who kept quiet there three days giving Zhia Xiang space asked.
âYes, what's the story? âZhia Xiang stretched her body and sat in the leather chair in front of the screen.
âA fake marriage. Lu Fao made and agreement with Huang Lan to pretend to be married for a year. Huang Lan is a famous and rich actor, age 29. His parents pressed him to find a wife or they'll find him one and knowing his parents, Huang Lan had to find a way to not let his parents find him an annoying woman.
He remembered Lu Fao who's also an actress and he was pleased with her personality so he proposed the contract to her and Fao accepted.
However, 3 months in the marriage Lu Fao fell in love and tried to win Huang Lan's heart. This made him upset and he divorced her, breaking Lu Fao's heart. She died overdosed.â agent 0 explained.
âWow, that's some drama shit. The task is to not fall in love with him? âZhia Xiang asked massaging her forehand.
âThat and to pursue her dream to open a restaurant and become a famous cook. âAgent 0 said.
âShe dreamed to be a cook? How did she ended up as an actress then? âZhia Xiang asked.
âShe was in the industry since a child. Her mother was also a successful actress, but she retired when she had Lu Fao.â
âI see. Do I have to stay in that world until the contract is over? âZhia Xiang asked looking at the screen where a picture of Huang Lan was. âDamn he looks big. â
âYes, you'll have to stay until the contract is over and you've achieved her dream. â
âWhat were the conditions of the contract? âZhia Xiang asked opening a beer can.
âLu Fao will have to attend public events with him and pretend that they have a lovind relationship. She'll also attend dinners with his family. Huang Lan also wants loyalty so she can't have lovers, he said he'll respect that rule as well so no cheating scandal appears. Most important, at home she's doesn't need to bother him or try to be a loving wife. No falling in love or sexual relationships. â
âAnd how much money he offered her for this? â
â3 millions dollars. â
Zhia Xiang chocked on her beer and coughed a few times.
âThis man is rich as hell if he can give so much for a small matter. I'll be fucking rich after this mission. âZhia Xiang said and pressed the accept button.
When she opened her eyes she was in a enormous and luxurious room.
âWhere in time are we? âZhia Xiang asked as she stood up and began to inspect the room.
âJuts two weeks after the wedding. âAgent 0 replied.
âI see. Anything happening today? â
âNo.â agent 0 answered.
Zhia Xiang hummed and looked at the expensive clothes in the dressing.
âThis woman has similar style with me. âZhia Xiang said and changed into a black long dress that had bats and black cats on it.
âMiss Lu, lunch is ready. Master Huang is going to accompany for lunch today. â a maid announced.
âLet's go then. â Zhia Xiang said and followed the maid.
As soon as she entered the dining room she looked around appreciating the luxury, she liked the dark colors Huang Lan chose.
She sat down and looked at the plate in front of her smiling.
âThank you for the meal. âZhia Xiang said and began to eat in peace.
Huang Lan gave her a glance and ate as well.
âThis man really is tall... is he a titan? âZhia Xiang thought and couldn't help but giggle at the though of Huang Lan being a titan and running around naked.
âIs something wrong? âHuang Lan asked looking at Zhia Xiang.
âOh? No, I just had a funny thought, excuse me for interrupting. âZhia Xiang said and washed the food down with wine.
âTomorrow we'll attend a party hosted by a popular movie director. âHuang Lan let Zhia Xiang know.
âUnderstood, any preference on what should I wear? âZhia Xiang asked and admired the dessert in front of her.
âNo, wear whatever you like. â
âAlright. âZhia Xiang said and ate her dessert.
âLiving in luxury for a year and only pretending to be a loving wife in public? That's some good deal. â Zhia Xiang thought.
Huang Lan looked at her a little confused. She seemed somewhat different, somehow absent.
âI'm done, I'll leave first. âZhia Xiang said and stood up smiling.
She'll enjoy the rich life to the fullest. She left humming and nearly doing a happy dance.
Huang Lan was puzzled, but decided to stop thinking about it. He had a meeting with his manager today.

Next day.
Zhia Xiang spent the morning at a spa getting face and body masks and a good massage. Her bones thanked her greatly.
She returned home around lunch time very relaxed and satisfied.
Huang Lan was having a phone call with someone so she decided to not disturb him and leave, but Huang Lan called her name.
âYes, goodbye. âhe said ending the call still looking at Zhia Xiang who stood quiet. âThe party has been moved earlier so begin preparing. â
âAlright. â Zhia Xiang said and went back in her room where she took a dark red, right, long dress that fitted her heavenly.
She left her hair free and applied a faint pink lipgloss, eyeliner and mascara.
Zhia Xiang chose her accessories and met Huang Lan in the living.
âYou're done? âHuang Lan asked arranging his tie.
âYes. âZhia Xiang replied as she looked at him.
âI can see why he's so popular.âZhia Xiang thought and followed Huang Lan to the car.
Soon, they'll have to put the facade on.
âLet's see how he behaves. âZhia Xiang snickered and crossed her legs looking out of the window.
