When Min Zhi walked into the private room, Fu Baiqi was already seated inside. This place was far from the city, with few people around. The sound of the door opening reached the person inside, but he didn’t turn his head, still staring out the window. It wasn’t until Min Zhi sat down in front of him that Fu Baiqi shifted his gaze. “President Min, is there anything you want from me?”
Min Zhi didn’t say anything.
Neither of them had any expression. Despite sitting face-to-face, neither of them looked at the other’s face, not at all like people who had worked together for many years.
“I heard the desserts here are very good.”
Fu Baiqi slightly furrowed his brows and glanced at the man but didn’t respond.
After a while, the waiter entered, and Fu Baiqi’s gaze returned to the window. Min Zhi casually flipped through the menu. “One cheese tart, to go.”
Fu Baiqi, sitting across from him, lowered his gaze, and his fingers, gripping the silver spoon, slightly whitened. Although he wasn’t particularly clear on Fang Fengzhi’s tastes, he had often seen different kinds of desserts in the fridge at home before.
“Shall it be prepared now?”
“Wait a little longer.”
Fu Baiqi’s expression wasn’t pleasant, and his heavy-lidded eyes glanced at the man in front of him.
What is this supposed to be?
Is he trying to flaunt the sweet life he has with Fang Fengzhi?
After the waiter left, his hand suddenly relaxed, and the silver spoon clinked sharply against the edge of the cup. “If President Min is just here to buy desserts, then I’ll be leaving now.” With that, he began to stand up.
“You’ve misunderstood.” Min Zhi looked at him. “I really wanted to have a chat with you.”
“I haven’t had the chance to contact you before.”
Fu Baiqi glanced at him and sat back down. “What do you want to talk about?”
Min Zhi replied calmly, “Last night, I saw the call you made to Fang Fengzhi.”
“Since the divorce is already finalized, Mr. Fu, if you keep clinging on, it’ll only cause unnecessary trouble.”
Clinging on?
Fu Baiqi said coldly, “This is between him and me. I don’t think it’s your place to interfere, President Min.” He paused for a moment. “Besides, are you that insecure about him? Needing to check who’s been calling as well?”
“I saw it by chance,” Min Zhi replied expressionlessly, looking back at him. “He was in the shower at the time.”
Fu Baiqi’s already unpleasant expression darkened even further. His fists clenched tightly as he struggled to keep his voice steady. “I see.”
“But President Min, can you really trust him?” His tone was laced with a certain malice, almost through gritted teeth. “With a record like his, no matter what he does afterward, it’ll always seem suspicious, won’t it?”
“He’s had feelings for me since we were kids, for ten whole years, and now he just let go.”
Fu Baiqi looked at Min Zhi, and the calm on his face finally cracked a little. The corner of his lips lifted slightly before he spoke again, “And how many years do you think he’ll hold on to you?”
“You should know as well, cheating and affairs rarely happen just once.”
It was near dusk when Min Zhi finally returned to the villa.
The driver kept glancing at Min Zhi through the rearview mirror, not daring to speak. The assistant sitting beside him also looked a little uneasy. “President Min, we’ve arrived…” After speaking, he paused for a moment before asking, “Should we… head to the research facility first?”
Min Zhi said nothing as he opened the car door and got out.
He stood still for a few seconds, eyes fixed intently on the villa, then suddenly let out a long breath.
Finally…
Since Fang Fengzhi was injured, the resentment and dissatisfaction weighing on his heart had lifted considerably. He spread his palm, noticing some stains that couldn’t be washed off, his blood still flowing hotly through his veins, burning so intensely that his palm went numb. He relaxed his eyelids as if in a trance, and like a murderer in a crime movie, he pressed his hand to the back of his head, twisting his neck a few times.
He had never advocated solving problems with violence; this was the first time.
In fact, there was no need to resort to violence, especially since they were already divorced. But it was something he had wanted to do for a long time. Fu Baiqi was right, he feared that Fang Fengzhi might betray him the same way he had betrayed Fu Baiqi.
So, any potential threat should be eliminated.
They all thought his pheromones were out of control.
How could that be possible? He had spent so much time at the research facility recently, under such intense conditions. There’s no way he hadn’t adjusted by now.
He was now very clear-headed and rational.
He knew exactly what he was doing.
“I’ll go take care of things first,” Min Zhi said to the person in the car. “Don’t disturb me for the next three days.”
He removed his blood-stained watch, placed it in his pocket, and lifted his foot toward the villa.
There was just one last thing left to do.
He opened the door, and Fang Fengzhi happened to be coming down the stairs. Upon seeing him, Fang Fengzhi smiled and walked over. “Where did you go today?”
Min Zhi lightly touched his face. “I went to meet a friend.” He turned and walked to the kitchen, grabbed a bottle of cold water, and took a big gulp, trying to calm his body, which was burning with heat.
Fang Fengzhi followed him like a little tail. “Is it very hot?” He wrapped his arms around Min Zhi’s waist from behind, burying his face in his back to take a sniff.
“You have a strange smell,” Fang Fengzhi remarked. “It’s fishy, like blood.”
Min Zhi said nothing, letting Fang Fengzhi sniff him while he reached for a glass and poured the cold water into it.
Then Min Zhi turned and kissed Fang Fengzhi’s lips. “Let’s go upstairs.” It was just an ordinary kiss, but Fang Fengzhi felt something different this time, because Min Zhi’s gaze was so… ambiguous and a little fierce. Fang Fengzhi suddenly felt a rush of heat, his body turning restless. He was picked up by the man. The scent of gunpowder gradually grew stronger, and Fang Fengzhi felt so hot that he slumped against the Enigma, weak and flushed.
The two of them leaned back onto the bed, facing each other, their noses almost touching. Fang Fengzhi saw an indescribable pleasure in Min Zhi’s eyes, and for a moment, he froze.
He calmly pushed Fang Fengzhi onto the bed and gently kissed and licked his cheeks, lips, chin, and then his slender neck. Fang Fengzhi was itching for a long time, and he stroked the back of the man’s head with one hand and held his arm tightly with the other. The muscles there were strong and firm, and there was an indescribable sense of security. Fang Fengzhi always liked to hold there. For some reason, that place seemed to be harder than usual today.
Before he could think about it, the man suddenly stood up.
Fang Fengzhi looked at him in confusion and saw him take out a bag of something from the drawer, tear it open, and pour the powder inside into the cup.
“What is this?”
Min Zhi shook the cup, and the powder in the water quickly dissolved.
He brought the cup to Fang Fengzhi’s mouth. “Aphrodisiac.”
Fang Fengzhi was stunned. “What?” He thought he had heard wrong.
The cup next to his mouth tilted slightly, and the water flowed onto his lips. Fang Fengzhi took a sip and pushed Min Zhi’s hand. “What am I drinking this for?”
Min Zhi didn’t force him. “I’m afraid you’ll feel uncomfortable.”
“What?” Min Zhi didn’t say anything and turned his head away. Fang Fengzhi felt more and more strange and felt a little uneasy.
“I… um…” Just as he opened his mouth to ask, he was kissed by the man again. A mouthful of very cold water was poured into his mouth, and before he could react, it slid down his throat. The coldness went all the way to his stomach, and Fang Fengzhi shuddered. He hurriedly looked at the cup on the table, and sure enough, most of the water in it was gone.
Min Zhi didn’t move his lips away and kissed him slowly. The two of them became more and more eager and hugged each other tightly. Soon his clothes were taken off completely.
Although he drank what Min Zhi called the “aphrodisiac”, his body was no different from usual. He was just a little hot due to the arousal of the Enigma.
