My Wife, The Ice Queen President

Chapter 62: Chapter 0062 Gene Catalyst_1
He pushed the door open and, ignoring Yang Xinyi’s surprised gaze, Ye Xiong closed the folder on the desk, snatched the pen she was holding, and placed it into the pen case.

Throughout the process, he was expressionless like a robot.

“What are you doing?” Yang Xinyi asked seriously.

“What’s the point of making so much money when in the end, it might just end up benefiting that bastard man? With your current situation, why suffer so much? You should enjoy your life,” Ye Xiong said as he tidied up.

“Give me ten more minutes.”

“One hour ago, you asked me for twenty minutes.”

Yang Xinyi sighed. After some time of interaction, she had gotten to know this man a bit, and his decisions were hard to change, so she let him do as he pleased.

She stood up, but just as she did, she suddenly felt a numbness in her feet and slumped onto the desk, her brows deeply furrowed.

“What’s wrong?”

“I’ve been sitting too long, my feet are a bit numb,” Yang Xinyi quickly sat down again.

“Let me give you a massage.”

Without waiting for her agreement, Ye Xiong squatted down, took off her high-heeled shoes, and asked, “Where is it numb?”

“My calves,” Yang Xinyi replied, almost as if possessed.

Subconsciously, she felt she should refuse, but she couldn’t bring herself to say no at that moment; she even felt a bit of anticipation, wanting to know if Ye Xiong’s massage really could make her feel comfortable.

It was Ye Xiong’s first time touching Yang Xinyi’s feet. Just like her, her feet were dainty and exquisite, with very fair skin that looked like they might fit a size six shoe.

Her toes were very clean, and the toenails were neatly kept, clearly indicating a girl who valued hygiene highly.

The feeling of being massaged by Ye Xiong, both numb and comfortable, made Yang Xinyi moan softly, her face flushing red.

Suddenly, she quickly withdrew her foot, her face blushing as she said, “That’s enough, no need to continue.”

Ye Xiong grabbed her foot back and laughed, “It’s not done yet, what are you afraid of? I’m not going to eat you.”

“You wouldn’t dare,” Yang Xinyi huffed, but she did not continue to pull her foot away.

Numb feet were caused by sitting for a long time and poor circulation. Ye Xiong massaged her calves for a while, and as the blood flow returned, the pain subsided.

“Wife, is there anywhere else on your body that’s uncomfortable? I’ve learned massage techniques, and I guarantee that after a massage, your whole body will feel comfortable, even more so than…,” Ye Xiong joked with a smile.

She might not have considered it before, but the mention sparked a tempting curiosity within Yang Xinyi.

Due to long periods spent sitting in the office, she suffered from a mild occupational ailment in her back. The doctor had told her it wasn’t serious but advised her to stand up and move around after sitting for half an hour to an hour, to stretch her muscles, yet often she would forget all that when engrossed in work, sometimes sitting for several hours straight.

“Let’s go,” she finally decided against giving this guy a chance, knowing that despite his earnest appearance now, if she really let him massage her back, who knows if his hands would make their way up to her chest.

This guy was untrustworthy.

Ye Xiong smiled and didn’t insist, following her out of the office, one after the other.

It was already past seven in the evening, and the entire building was quiet with hardly anyone around.

Ye Xiong told Yang Xinyi to wait at the entrance while he went to fetch the car from the parking shed. Just as he entered the parking lot, a sudden sense of crisis welled up, and he came to an abrupt halt.

“Come out,” he suddenly called out to one of the pillars.

After a moment, a familiar figure emerged from behind the pillar.

Phoenix, dressed like a post-apocalyptic assassin, appeared before him.

“Why are you here to see me again?” Ye Xiong asked impatiently.

“Hand over the thing you took from Yan Li, it’s an order from the commander.” Phoenix walked up to him and said seriously.

“What thing?”

“The Gene Catalyst.”

“This thing, huh?”

Ye Xiong pulled out the bottle of yellow liquid and flaunted it in front of Phoenix.

Just as Phoenix reached to take it, Ye Xiong retracted his hand, stuffing the item from his jeans pocket into his crotch, and said with a laugh, “If you want it, come and get it yourself.”

“You… Can you be any more shameless?” Phoenix glanced at where he had hidden the small bottle, torn between taking it or not, caught in a dilemma.

“Didn’t you say that for the sake of national security, you dare to do anything? How come now you don’t even have the courage to take a bottle of yellow liquid?” Ye Xiong stuck out his bottom unresistingly and chuckled, “Take it or leave it, but if you don’t want it, I’m leaving.”

“Ye Xiong, be serious.” Phoenix said sternly.

“Forget it if you’re not taking it.” Ye Xiong ignored him and walked towards his car.

After hesitating for a moment, Phoenix finally couldn’t resist and said, “Stop, I’ll take it.”

Ye Xiong’s lips curved into a sly smile as he stopped and raised his hands.

Phoenix reached out, shaking terribly.

In her life, she had never done something so embarrassing. Even the first time she took a gun to kill someone, her hands didn’t tremble this much.

To avoid embarrassment, she had to look away, reaching toward the waistband of Ye Xiong’s pants.

“Oh, you’re blushing.”

Seeing a rare flush of red on Phoenix’s usually unchanging face, Ye Xiong exclaimed loudly as if discovering a new world.

The more she was called out on it, the more ashamed Phoenix became.

If it weren’t because he was Reaper, if it weren’t because she owed him a favor, Phoenix would have forcefully snatched it away by now.

To not prolong the awkwardness, Phoenix quickened her pace, ready to reach through his waistband.

But unexpectedly, Ye Xiong suddenly screamed, stepping back several paces and shouting loudly, “Pervert, hooligan, do you think I’m that kind of easy man? Let me tell you, I’m not so easy to take advantage of!”

Phoenix’s face darkened, who exactly was taking advantage of whom here?

“Don’t insult me further, my patience has its limits.” Phoenix said angrily.

“You can’t endure this little injustice? Think back to when I was tortured alive for three days and nights, buried underground for most of a month, and after coming out, I still bore it without blowing you away with a gun. You call this an insult?” Ye Xiong’s face immediately turned back to his usual cold expression.

Phoenix, whose face had been flushed with anger, cooled down in an instant and stared at him blankly.

Ye Xiong took out the yellow liquid from his pants, placed it on the ground, and said, “You can take the yellow liquid, but you must tell me what this is, what does it do?”

“This is called the Gene Catalyst, a biochemistry experimental drug. It’s mainly used to catalyze Gene Warriors and enhance their combat capability. The specific composition hasn’t been figured out yet. This thing is very important to us, so the commander has ordered me to bring it back.” Phoenix explained.

“If you wanted it, I might have given it to you, but if he wants it…” Suddenly, Ye Xiong lifted his foot and stomped hard on the bottle, and the whole bottle of yellow liquid spilled on the ground.

“You…”

“Go back and tell Long Tianya that the thing he wanted, I accidentally smashed.” Ye Xiong said, then he got back into his car and drove off.

Phoenix stood still for a long time, then sighed, took out her phone, and dialed out.
