Naruto In The World Of Beautiful CEO 58 Kidnapped

Ruoxi went to the living room as she put her handbags on the table and sat on the sofa.

"Yeah, we kinda late after all," Naruto joined her but sat on the single couch with the white package placed above his thighs.

Ruoxi glanced at him, her eyes filled with worry, "You think the blade was enough?"

"You said this once belong to a knight?" Naruto sc.r.a.pped the tape that clutched the package, despite their mocking and bad opinion on the item but they still wrapped it in neat.

"Yeah, Sir Lancelot," Ruoxi nodded.

Naruto shrugged, "Never heard of him."

"You never heard Arthurian legend? Or Camelot? Round of knight?" She wrinkled her eyebrows.

Naruto looked upward for a while, he shook his head, "Eh, sounds n.o.ble but nope, not a single thing..."

Her face changed their countenance, after all, the legend of King Arthur was well-known by the entire world, history dictated that once he almost succeeds on conquering entire Europe and subdued part Asia continent. But due to internal conflict between the knights, started from the infidelity between one of his knight and his queen, until the rebellion roused by his own son, Mordred, his reign fell into a chaos and started crumbling into ruin.

His achievement and glory had inspired many people to retell his story or adopted his story in a form of novels, movies, animes, even games. So even if you didn't like history, you should least know or hear his name.

But Naruto seems like genuinely know nothing about this.

"Naruto, do you know about Romanian empire?" Ruoxi looked at him and probed.

"Oh sure, great people, one of the largest force in the entire world, oh, by the way, do you know that their fifth emperor was a woman? Urgh, annoying one, she sang so bad that I almost bleed my ears." Naruto's body shivered as he looked at her.

"Huh, I don't know about that and why do you say "she sang until your ears bleed" as if you heard it in person?" Her eyebrows raised to a high degree.

"Eh, I read it somewhere, and I have a great imagination, anyway, that's not important," Naruto opened the package and he put his hand inside, his hand touched a cold surface, he grabbed it and pulled the sword.

Ruoxi's heart skipped a beat, she really feared he'll be disappointed the moment his gaze fell on the sword, even she would be dispirited if they ever traded their position. But on the contrary, she's not seeing any bitter on his face, in fact, she's not seeing any kind of emotion whatsoever!

Naruto just stared at the sword, dulled and deadpanned, the lights from the chandelier glared at the sword but unable to disperse any blackness that covered it, like a permanent blank ink that you will never able to discard.

Naruto stood up and walked out toward the empty s.p.a.ce between the living room and a full-sized windows led to the backyard.

He swung the sword multiple times, "This sword was really light, like a feather..."

"People said, it was a fake..." Ruoxi face darkened in the instant as if she felt her money had been conned.

"Yeah, that's pretty obvious, I mean..." Naruto raised the sword and stretched his left arm at the same time, he swung it toward his own arm.

"Naruto, what are you doing?!" Ruoxi jumped in fright.

*Thud!*

The sword's edge stopped right after it hit his arm, Naruto faces remained dull as ever, "this sword not even sharp at all, no wonder people called it a fake."

"Hah, you almost my heart jumped," Ruoxi let out a relieved breath, she patted her chest.

"That's strange, this kind of thing why the auction allowed it to appear? Isn' it going to ruin their name," Naruto mumbled.

Ruoxi nodded, "I heard from the staff who helped to carry it, initially, they planned to exhibit an antique dagger from early Qing Dynasty, but a shady man suddenly came and put this sword in table, in normal situation, they would reject such an item but the person who submitted it, pay them 20 million dollars."

"What?!" Naruto snapped his head toward her in disbelieve.

"I know, crazy right? Of course, such an easy money who would have rejected it, even if they disgrace their name, nothing a little apology and compensation cannot fix," Ruoxi shook her head.

"Did that shady person say anything?"

"Yes, he said he's a courier, delivering the item back to its owner."

"Owner..." Naruto looked back at the sword, his eyes seemed focused on its surface, 'strange, even with eyesight chakrenchantment, I'm still unable to see beyond the blackness of this sword, why? Who's the owner of this sword?'

He pondered a little while before letting out a sigh, 'well I guess, that's a question for another day.' He strolled back toward the single couch and put the sword back inside its package.

"Are you... disappointed?" Ruoxi's face declined as she fidgeted on her feet.

"Hm? h.e.l.l n-" Naruto halted his word, he frowned for sometime before looked back at her with a bitter expression, "well, what do you think? I'm dying to have that knife instead they sell a piece of garbage like this, tell me Ruoxi, what do you think?"

"Naruto, you...?!" She threw her face at him and stared in shock.

"It's annoying when you want a certain item but has other things instead, it's like you order a pork ramen yet they gave you beef ramen instead..." Naruto snorted.

"Huh? Isn't that a good thing?"

"Anyway! I'm really annoyed by this development, and you disappointed me Ruoxi..." Naruto shook his head, "I had placed my trust in you."

"Well, what do you want me to do?!" Ruoxi spat her glare at him, she couldn't believe he actually blames her in this, what a big jerk!

"You can just bail on it and buy me one from an antique shop, I wouldn't notice anyway..."

"Wh" Ruoxi widened her eyes, her nose became heated, "you want me to lie on you?"

"Well, I don't think that was hard right? after all, how many ears have you tricked?

You decided to buy the item because you just like it when all eyes on you, right?

No matter where you are, people always paid their respect and carefully act around you, like you some queen of the crystal palace.

I'm saying this because you don't actually look like what you display in public.

You just a manipulative woman who use me against that Xu Zhihong," Naruto shrugged as a sneer appeared on his face.

Ruoxi stood from her seat and strode toward Naruto, she lashed out her palm and struck his cheek. Naruto face went sideways but the expression he wore nevertheless remain the same.

"Don't talk like you know about me..." Her faced look at the floor thus he unable to see her expression.

"I understand... this whole time, you just pretend to act nice but you actually just the same as those men out there.

You just want my body and my wealth, soon I'll be thrown to the side like a toy you bored to play.

I thought I might love you and your heart was true to me but I guess I was wrong."

Her body shivered before she grabbed her handbag and jogged toward the second floor, she stopped before her room, "I actually can't believe I invite you into my room before and almost let you take advantage of me."

Naruto laughed in sarcastic sound, "you better thank those books on your shelves, they save your purity!"

"Listening to your voice now makes me want to puke!"

"Then go to the toilet but be careful not to get a slip, after all, you don't want your pretty legs wounded right?!"

"What do you care?! You still want to dirty my body anyway!"

"Don't think yourself highly, I'm not interested in a cold woman!"

"Fine! Visit that hooker of yours, don't you dare come back to this house!"

"Hah, you don't need to tell me, the bar in the wine street was always my perfect heaven!"

"Goodbye, you jerk!" She opened her door and slammed it behind her.

Naruto took a deep breath before he waved his neck left and right, he rose from his seat and strolled toward the front door.

Wine Street, the best place for people to escape their dull and frustrating life by enjoying the endless pleasure of a touch from many gentle fingers. For those who like an adventurous journey toward the land of obscenity, this place also provided a courageous companion.

A certain place with dimmed illuminations, smokes and wines beaten up the atmosphere, amorous giggling and flirting stabbed one ear, exotic and s.e.xy dress spotted anywhere.

A young lady with a red sparkling one-piece dress, staring at the man in front of her who looked like about to drown himself in the sea of booze.

"Why you always come to me in this kind of state?" The woman twitched her lips.

"Because you, Mei Mei, are my guarding angel that can always heal my heart," the man with a blonde hair raised his drink and gobbled it to his heart content.

Mei Mei sighed, she sat on a stool, "Alright sugar, what's your problem?"

Naruto dumped his forehead on the bar table, "I got a fight with my girlfriend..."

Mei Mei startled, "I never know you have a girlfriend."

"Yeah, she kinda a pushover thus I don't really like mentioning her at all," Naruto bit on his gla.s.s.

She wrinkled her eyebrows, waving her hand toward the bartender to fill up Naruto's gla.s.s, "why you still date her then?"

"Because she's rich as h.e.l.l and I'm poor as f.u.c.k, it's like dating a walking atm," Naruto offered his gla.s.s as another strong alcohol poured inside by the bartender.

His answered clearly caught her off-guard, despite she only knew him for a week times, she had a favorable impression, thus hearing him dating a woman just because money made her unable to adapt in short time.

"I don't know you are a gold-digger type of man," she mumbled while looked at him with a dazed expression.

"Hey I prefer a term "functional-man" after all, I have high-grade man's quality, why not use it as my own advantage? I got gold, she got pleasure, win-win situation!"

"So there is like a contract or deal between you two?"

Naruto sneered, "Of course not, such a thing have limited time, I want to live basking in prosperity until I die!"

"So you trick her?!" She gasped as she closed her mouth.

"That's a cruel word, I took her into my love boat, OK? Drowsing her in a gentle sewave, the boat swayed in rhythm, sailing her into the big moon who appeared in the sky wall."

Mei Mei frowned, her forehead wrinkled so hard that a crevice started forming on its surface.

Naruto took the four drink, finishing it until the last dripped, he even licked the gla.s.s interior as if he wanted to wipe every trace of alcohol left. His behavior somewhat disgusted Mei Mei, even though her job was to please a man and she had dealt with many kinds of them, with a lot of style and behavior, this was the first time she saw such an unruly and odd one like him.

Naruto put down his gla.s.s, he leaned back a little wobble, then he turned toward Mei Mei, grasping her hand, "Mei Mei, let's make out~ hic."

"Naruto, maybe you need to lay down..." Mei Mei tried to pull her hand, but he held it tightly.

"Hic, come on, just a smooch... I need an angle to heal my heart~" He leaned closer to her face and pushed out his mouth.

Mei Mei avoided his predator's mouth and it landed right on her left cheek, giving it a rubber-like sound that enough to irritate anyone who hear it, "Naruto, no! Please let me go and return to yourself!" She started pulling her hands harder, her head tried to lean back.

"H-hey mister, maybe you should calm down," the turn of event shocked the bartender and prepared to save Mei Mei in a rush, Naruto grumbled as his mouth failed many times to hit her smooth cheek, he stood up and grabbed her by the waist, he pulled her toward him, opened up his mouth and caught her tender left ear.

"Ah!" Mei Mei let out a moan but her heart denied the desire, she put both her hands into his chest and instilled some strength but no matter how much she tried, she unable to break out from him.

"Mister! Let Mei Mei go!" The bartender arrived at Naruto's back and grabbed his shoulder.

Three minutes pa.s.sed yet they still in the same situation, but Mei Mei seemed already weak as she breathed roughly, feeling Naruto's hot breath on her ear, she felt her ear turned little wet and red painted her cheek. Seeing Mei Mei condition worsen, the bartender steeled himself, he rushed toward his bar and grabbed a shotgun from under the shelves.

"Mister, I warn you, let Mei Mei go or I swear I'll shoot you, right away!" He aimed the shotgun toward Naruto.

Mei Mei startled, panic groomed her face, she pushed Naruto back and this time she managed to break him away, Naruto stumbled, he hit the stool behind him and fell onto the ground.

She placed both hands on her face and sob sound started to cue.

"Mister, you no longer welcome here, get the f.u.c.k away from my bar!" The bartender said with a rough voice.

"Tch, fine," Naruto stood from his spot and swaggered away from Mei Mei. After his figure faded beyond the entrance, the bartender put down his shotgun and let out a mouthful of air.

"What the h.e.l.l is wrong with him, I have seen people drunk before but this is just something else," he glanced at Mei Mei who still sob, "are you OK, Mei Mei? Do you have any wound?"

Mei Mei put down her hand, she faced the bartender then shook her head, "I'm fine, boss, thank you for defending me."

The bartender nodded, he sighed, "that man just lost it."

Mei Mei wiped her tears, she turned her face toward the entrance, traced of concern flash before her eyes, 'Naruto, be careful, and please stay alive.'

At the outside of the bar.

"Hic, stupid place, stupid Ruoxi, stupid Mei Mei."

On the concrete pavement beside the main road, Naruto strolled with both hands in his pockets, legs swayed without control, sometimes he staggered till he almost fell, he even hit a street lamp as paved his way.

"Brother," suddenly from the darkness within the alley he pa.s.sed, a hoa.r.s.e voice pulled his attention.

"Who's there?!" Naruto glanced to his left with a grumpy face.

"I'm a friend, and I see you have some problem, why don't you and I have a chat?" His figure blended in with the lack of brightness of his surrounding, making Naruto unable to see clearly.

"Pfft, who do you think I am, a freaking child? I'm not just going to obey you because you throw me candy!"

"But I have a ramen~"

"OK, I'm coming over!" Naruto turned his body toward the hoa.r.s.e man and dashed into the dark.

*Bang!*

*Thud!*

A blunt sound broke the silent coated the community but it comes and goes like a wind on the green hills. The sound followed by something fell into the ground then no any further sign of sound besides wild cats and dogs occasional barking.

A man stepped out from the shadow of the alley, a sneer pulled the corner of his lips, he took out his phone and pressed the dial, after a while, someone at the other side of the line answered him, "how is it going?"

"Eh, easy-peasy, he doesn't even put on any fight!" The man laughed while waving a brick on his free hand, a blood splat on the ground in the process.

"He's not dead, right?"

"Don't worry, since the boss said the man's pretty tough then he should be still alive," the man curled his lips.

"Alright, bagged him up and quickly delivered him into our usual spot, make sure no one sees you."

"Don't worry I know how to do my job!"

He put down his phone and inserted it into his pocket, he bent his body and picked up a man who laid on the ground, no any life indication gestured from the man's body. He put the lifeless man into his shoulder and strode beyond the darkness. It took few twists of turn for him to finally able saw another exit of the alleyway, a Prius car awaited right ahead of him and a person with a cigarette in his hand sat on the driver seat.

He got out as soon as he saw the man came out from the alley with someone on his shoulder, he opened the car's trunk and helped the man put that body inside.

"This f.u.c.ker quite heavy for someone at his size!" The man gasped for breath as he wiped the sweats with his tanned hand.

"Come on, we should go before the cops patrol arrive," the person tossed out his smoke and went to the driver seat.

The man followed in suit as he took the seat beside the person, the Prius roared its engine and spin its tire crazily as it drove forward.
