"I told you that you are dead now, right? Your director will know about your death tomorrow morning. Whether you are alive or not, it is all within my control."
James Grind gulped the moment Long Zhen said that. He twisted the doorknob many times and even tried to kick it as hard as he could. But it didn't leave a dent at all on the door. James Grind got desperate when Long Zhen sauntered towards him with his menacing glare and smirk.
"S—Stay back!" James Grind used his smartwatch to shoot a taser gun at Long Zhen, but Long Zhen dodged it easily.
"You are still very incompetent. Aside from your beauty, what do you have?"
[Pupa: I readily agree with you. This spicy chicken host has no other talent than shaking his butt! I am really disappointed to be assigned with him for a long time.]
[Pffftt! Pupa, I don't need to be a beauty and brains to complete the world. I will finish it in my own way, Beauty and Booty!]
"N—No, don't come closer, I beg you…" James Grind's leg trembled when facing the intimidating Long Zhen.
It was too scary for James Grind that he had lost all his strength and sat on the ground. Long Zhen looked down at James Grind, and he also crouched in response.
"You are so determined. I wonder if you have something that drives your determination." Long Zhen tapped James Grind's nape, hitting the weak spot, and James Grind fainted instantly.
Long Zhen caressed James Grind's cheek and kissed his lips gently. Both his heart and mind were chaotic right now. In his first idea, he was thinking about killing James Grind immediately by ripping his face in half before stabbing him.
Then it changed to torturing James Grind until his face was ruined.
And then it changed again to just breaking James Grind's arms and legs.
In the end, Long Zhen just wanted this guy to stay beside him for a little longer.
"I don't know what am I doing right now. Maybe it is my loneliness that forces me to take you as my temporary companion. So, you will be a doll to help my loneliness for a while, James Grind." Long Zhen said.
[Pupa: Ding! Fatemeter increases to -30%.]
[Pupa: Ding! Breakmeter increases to -30%.]
***
Long Zhen had a long day today. He was clashing with Huang Shu again about the territory problem. But he should be able to get the upper hand and take control soon.
But it was still a long and tiring day. He went to his new house near the lakeside, a luxurious yet empty house that was well taken care of by a daily maid, gardener, and chef.
"Jamie, I'm home," Long Zhen said as the light turned on automatically with the home assistant. He looked around and saw no one. Though, it was not surprising for Long Zhen. His eyes glanced on his left and immediately caught a man who lunged with a sharp knife, a classic trick.
Long Zhen caught his assaulter's hand and hugged him gently. "I'm home. It's been a tiring day, but seeing you want to kill me like this, makes my day feels better, I guess." Long Zhen said.
James Grind gritted his teeth. His 35th assassination attempt to Long Zhen had failed. "Die, scum," James Grind cursed.
Long Zhen didn't seem to be bothered, though. Actually, he was starting to like James Grind's relentless attempt to kill him. It was like an excellent way to keep him grounded, that nobody would ever love him.
So all he could do was this, chaining a man that piqued his interest inside this big luxurious house, like keeping a canary in a golden cage.
"Do you want to eat something for dinner? Maybe pizza? I know that you like to eat pizza and other fast food since you don't seem to like the Michelin chef's cooking," Long Zhen said.
James Grind said nothing, but to vent his frustration, he bit Long Zhen's shoulder as hard as he could. Long Zhen only winced slightly, but he didn't seem to be bothered. "Okay, okay, I will buy you pizza."
Long Zhen called his bodyguards and ordered them to buy pizza for James Grind. Long Zhen gently placed James Grind on the sofa and took a bottle of wine before sitting beside James Grind.
"Today is very tiring, you know. That Huang Shu really has guts," Long Zhen complained. James Grind glared at him but said nothing. He turned his head away from Long Zhen as a form of protest as always.
Long Zhen used a remote in his pocket and pressed something. There was a beeping sound, and a red dot flashed from a metal collar on James Grind's neck. It was a special collar designed so that James Grind wouldn't be able to leave the house, or the collar would explode and kill him instantly.
"Ah, you are still safe with me. Don't worry, Jamie," Long Zhen said.
[Pupa: I just want to remind you that it has been three months you are here, but both Breakmeter and Fatemeter are still stuck at -30%.]
[I know! I really want to leave this place! But Long Zhen is crazy. He is a madman for real! He jailed me here and declared me dead to my director!]
[Pupa: Why don't you just cultivate the feelings with Long Zhen? You have a lot of time here.]
[Don't you remember what I did in three months? I tried to act nice and obedient to him, never try to assassinate him again, but look what I got? Three months of -30%!]
[And the worst thing is… he doesn't want to fuck me at all!]
Yunyu tried to seduce Long Zhen again, thinking that Long Zhen would yield and his meters would increase through sex. But nope, Long Zhen was completely immune to his seduction and said, 'I will not touch someone who obviously doesn't like me at all.'
After three months of trying, Yunyu finally gave up.
[I just can't. His trust issue is beyond my understanding. No matter how hard I tried to convince him that I will not hurt him anymore, he will always see me as an assassin ready to take his head. We have been trapped in this trust cycle nonstop until I got fed up.]
[Pupa: I think you need to find a way to incite that fire inside Long Zhen again. Right now, he feels secure because you are within his grasp and control. He treats you like a pet that will accompany him to sleep. But a pet is, well… just a pet. You will not develop a romantic interest in your pet.]
Yunyu was thinking hard. He couldn't kill himself and restart here. Since the collar forbade him to do it. He tried it once by slicing his wrist, but the collar rang loudly and alerted Long Zhen's bodyguards outside.
Then, Long Zhen removed all kinds of dangerous and sharp objects inside the room except a fruit knife for Yunyu to play 'assassin' with Long Zhen again.
It was a complete humiliation indeed.
Long Zhen got curious when he saw James Grind seemed to be in deep thought. He engulfed James Grind's shoulder in his arm and asked, "What are you thinking right now?"
"I'm thinking about a way to kill you," James Grind replied ruthlessly.
Long Zhen laughed lightly. He bopped James Grind's nose dotingly. "That will take a long time. Unless you can kill me, you will be stuck here forever and ever, James Grind." Long Zhen said with a twisted grin on his face.
