Summary:
It seems that everything went bad all day for Syaoran. His Grandfather died & he hates the fact that he had to marry in five months time if he still wants to keep all his riches. He had drunk his problems away only to be showered with cold beer by a certain auburn haired girl! What a nice day!
A/N: Hi guys! It's my first time writing a fic, my English is not perfect so I accept criticism but please don't shower me curses okay?
^^ have a fun time reading!
Disclaimer: I don't own ccs and neither do you guys ^^
Chapter I: The day everything went wrong
Li Syaoran couldn't believe what his cousin was saying. "Eriol…" He hissed out towards his cousins's smug face.
"You heard me." The taller stated as he flipped threw some papers, before bringing out the one he was looking for and handing it to Syaoran. "Read it." He commanded, his eyes showing mirth in his cousin's misfortune.
"Did Meiling already saw this?" Syaoran asked while raising his head to his cousin. "Just read will 'ya?" Eriol ordered
The other complied as he allowed his amber eyes to read over the paper, his eyes widening as he looked it over.
Li Xiao Tian's Last Will in Testament
To my grandchildren whom I dearly love and respect, I'm sure that if you are reading this then I have passed on from this world and too the next, joining your grandmother and my children, Xiaolang's dad and Eriol's mom. You three have made me very proud to be your grandfather, and I will greatly miss you, and will wait for you for your time, which I pray Is not for a long time. You three are my life and I want to see you happy, since it seems I was not always able to be with you, and I am greatly remorse for that. I notice the pain of your eyes and it makes me feel sick to know that I am the cause for that. I hope what I leave behind for all of you; will somehow help you to forgive me.
To my eldest grandson, the first who gave me joy of being a grandparent, Eriol, I leave fifty percent of my fortune and business, as well as the summer home in Ireland. I truly hope that you have a happy life and that you will forgive me if it seems you are getting the short end of the bargain. But please don't blame your cousin and don't blame yourself. I love you very much and I hope that you will look out for him.
To my only granddaughter Meiling, you will always be grandfather's baby girl, no matter what. Your cousins tend to be hard headed at times; I leave them in your care. Being the only woman left in the Li family, many would target you as wife. Be sure to find an appropriate husband for you. Always remember that grandfather loves you very much. Meiling, to you I leave rest of the winter and summer homes. You also receive all the restaurants run by the family.
To my youngest grandson, Xiao Lang. Words cannot describe how sorry I feel. You never got to know your Father or me, who has led you to close yourself up. I'm afraid and I can only blame myself for that. Xiao Lang, to you I leave fifty percent of my fortune and business, as well as the estate in Tomoeda, where your father was born. However, I have a condition for this. I have always wanted a family, and I was lucky enough to get it, but I took advantage of it and now I can never have the time back that I wasted, but you can. I want you to have a family and to be happy with that one woman whom you would do anything for. Unlike Eriol, you are more stubborn in finding a wife that's why I did this to give you a little push.
So this is it. Li Xiao Lang, for you to receive your fifty percent and estate you must marry a woman before your twenty-fifth birthday, otherwise, everything goes to your cousins. Please don't be mad, although I'm sure it's too late for that. I just want you to be happy and I know that the only way for you to be truly happy is for you to have a family, but please don't take advantage of them. Yelan would look after you so don't cheat!
I once again, must apologize for what I have done to the three of you and I hope that with this you can forgive me and find happier lives. I love you both.*
Signed,
Li Xiao Tian
The young man could only gape at the will that was in his hands.
He had to what?
He reread the paper and saw that what his eyes had absorbed only moments before were true.
There had to be some sort of mistake, and yet there at the corner of the paper was the crest of the Li family, a yin yang symbol, the indication that what he read was indeed true.
Eriol chuckled as he watched his normally emotionless younger cousin gape openly like a fish. "It seems that you indeed need to have a wife before your next birthday, which if I remember correctly," He teased as he mockingly and threw a calendar. "Since it's almost the end of January, happens in about five months, and If you don't, Meiling and I will have your share."
"This is insane!"
"If you didn't lie about those made up girlfriends then you wouldn't be in this situation." Eriol smirked
His smirk grew as the younger male ripped the parchment into pieces, "Luckily I foresaw your immature response to this and made sure you looked over a copy."
Syaoran clenched his fist tightly, absolute rage pouring out of his being, "I refuse to take apart of this . . . this idiocy!"
Completely unfazed by his cousin's snarl the older male shrugged as he leaned back in his chair, an evil and mischievous glint in his eyes.
"Then everything belongs to me."
Then, Eriol began to organize his desk, clearly ignoring the furious man who was about to continue his temper tantrum.
"This is. . . insane! I have to find a wife? Why the hell do I have to find a wife in almost half a year, no doubt!"
The twenty-seven-year-old man just shrugged again before taking a look at his cousin, leaning with his hands on his expensive desk.
"That's not for me to discuss with you. The only thing you need to worry about is finding a suitable wife or all your percentages of the fortune will be lost." He then brought out a file as he continued his work. "You're an intelligent man, if you are desperate enough I'm sure you can figure something out."
Pulling out a pen he continued to work before he waved his hand in a shoo motion. "I'm very busy right now, so will you please be a good little cousin and go away?"
"and oh, my wife is having her baby shower soon; be sure to give her a nice gift. You are after all my child's uncle." He added with a smirk.
Syaoran didn't need to be told twice as he stormed out of the office, clearly pissed off.
Night time at the bar-
A chocolate-brown-haired young man, sighed as he rubbed his throbbing head before giving the man in front of him a tired glare.
"You have to WHAT!" Yamazaki Takashi screamed in complete shock as he listened to what his best friend, had to do.
Syaoran growled as he glared at his best friend and started drinking his beer,*
"You heard me, takashi." He snapped not feeling up to repeating everything again, but since it was Takashi he held no choice. "For me to get my share of the will, I have to find a woman and marry her before my twenty-fifth-birthday."
Yamazaki gaped openly as he tried to find the words to talk, not fully comprehending what he was being told.
Syaoran smirked, as he glared smugly at the brunette. 'At least one thing good came out of this. I got him to shut his mouth for once.' He thought as he took a sip again.
Unfortunately the moment of silence was only a few seconds long, as Yamazaki found his voice and began to rant, very loudly.
"But you only have about five months! That's the amount of time it at least takes for a nice wedding to be planned out! It's next to impossible to get this done!" He complained as he shot up and began pacing. "And yeah, in Russia if you don't plan on your wedding very well, they say that your wife would give birth to a demon that eats parents and, and-" Syaoran shrugged as his friend started with his lame stories again "Oh boy! Let's think . . . Only seven months to do this. Now let's stay calm. Damn it Syaoran don't panic! Stay with me man!" He cried in hysteria towards the calm and aloof man.
The Li only raised an eyebrow towards the panicky man.
"Takashi. Calm down, neither of us will be able to think clearly if you go on like this." He stated calmly. He was about to close his eyes to think when a voice from the other table came in.
"I'll have whatever you got hidden under those clothes of yours." The blonde man cooed out as his fingers itched closer to the waitress' mini skirt of her uniform.
An animalistic growl escaped the waitress' throat, her grin going up a notch, her anger about to reach its peak. "I'm. Very. Very. Sorry. Sir. But. Nothing. Under. Here Is. For. Sale." She said emphasizing each word.
Soon, his fingers went to her knee before going back up.
He let out an annoyed sigh while listening to the conversation from the next table. 'It's her fault because she decided to work here...' He thought to himself before bringing the glass to his lips and taking a sip.
He stayed like that for a moment before Takashi spoke.
"What if -" Yamazaki started to speak only to be cut off by a crashing sound, a man suddenly thrown to the ground and a Syaoran soaked with alcohol.
"SHIT! WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING?!"
A/N: That's the first chapter! Do you like it?
.* if you were wondering why the grandfather didn't include meiling's parents and his inlaws, I skipped them because I think it's not an important part hehehe. Also, the parents who were only living here are Syaoran's mother, Eriol's Father and Meiling's Parents. Syaoran Here doesn't have sisters not like in the anime. Also, I don't have much Idea about beer since I'm not in the legal age yet so please bear with me.
