The Assassin's Enemy Lover

297 That girl is a homewrecker.

The man chuckled slightly before saying, “You know I am the only one who can protect him. I am willing to put my entire career on the line to do so. Just let me watch him from the shadows and savor his images in private.”

Zi Xingxi showed a smile that wasn’t exactly a smile before asking, “So if my husband was alive right now would you still be this adamant? Would you still be clamoring over my son?”

Prime minister Ikeda didn’t respond immediately as though thinking it through carefully. After a while, he finally said, “I wouldn’t. He is a married man after all... I would still pursue your son.”

Zi Xingxi wasn’t happy either way. She just wanted this man to leave his family alone but apparently, that was only wishful thinking.

“You yourself are a married man. Are you fuckin crazy?” asked Zi Xingxi her patience wearing thin. In fact, she was only tolerating his bullshit because she was tipsy. Alcohol mellowed her down significantly.

“It’s not out of love but an arrangement. I did it for your husband but he was more interested in you....,” the prime minister paused before continuing, “I am willing to bottom for him... I don’t think your son is the top in his relationship with Yi Chen... Doesn’t it bother you? Not even a little? I can even marry into your family, that’s how much I want him. I will also protect him. You know I have that capability.”

“Fuck off,” replied Zi Xingxi before cutting the call.

Yi Chen on the other hand was so excited about what he bought for Zi Han that he couldn’t keep his hands to himself. He was holding onto him when they left the restaurant, inside the hovercar, and even when they got home.

.....

Several times he wanted to mention it but he was so embarrassed that the words got caught in his throat. He even took out the bags and placed them somewhere Zi Han could see but even then his lover didn’t notice. He could only wait until when they went upstairs to remind Zi Han.

Thus the two of them sat on the couch while playing games. Yi Chen was lying down with his head resting on the armrest of the couch while Zi Han was lying on his back within the gap between Yi Chen’s legs.

The two of them were chatting like this and laughing occasionally. They looked like the perfect poster of a happy couple. Zi Han suddenly thought of the shopping bag at the kitchen counter that Yi Chen had intentionally left there thus he asked, “What did you buy? I want to see it.”

Yi Chen who had just won a round of gaming raised his head slightly to look at Zi Han before saying, “I am a little embarrassed to tell you. Why don’t you take a look.” Zi Han felt his heart sink hearing this. If Yi Chen wasn’t even willing to show him it meant it was that bad.

Zi Han was very much aware of how thin-skinned Yi Chen was hence it must be something very bad or too shameful to open in public.

“Let me go take a look,” said Zi Han getting up. Yi Chen was about to say he should let it go if he found the things very uncomfortable when his light brain started ringing and the call was from Li Ran.

Thinking it must be an emergency Yi Chen answered the call. He was so absentminded that he didn’t even realize that Zi Han had left the kitchen and gone upstairs.

“What’s up?” he asked and Li Ran went straight to the point.

“Are you two finally informing the Marshal of your relationship?” he asked and Yi Chen answered promptly,

“No, not yet. Why?”

Li Ran almost burst out in anger hearing this. “Why? Why? You two have been acting lovey-dovey all day and your pictures have been circulating among the small circles. Are you fucking kidding me?”

“Can you fix it?” asked Yi Chen his confidence in Li Ran apparent.

Li Ran, “...”

“Of course, I can. I am the fuckin fixer. You are so lucky I had a notification system set up in case otherwise give it two hours and you two would be trending on major platforms. I am certain that you would even break StarNet. You two are seriously giving me a headache. It’s like babysitting children.”

Yi Chen sincerely apologized but deep down in his heart, he wished Li Ran hadn’t seen it. He really wanted his father to know. Whether it angered him or not he didn’t care. He just wanted him to know so they can stop hiding it.

While he was thinking this his light brain beeped indicating another incoming video call. “Hold on, my mum is calling,” he said and answered the call.

He didn’t end his call with Li Ran thus he was there to witness Lin Rouxi’s miniature panic attack. “You two, you and Han Han... are you fighting? That girl is a homewrecker. I am sure Han Han is very upset now.

Yi Chen, “???”

“More like fighting in bed,” said Li Ran out loud, and when he realized his mistake he covered his mouth with his hand. Yi Chen hadn’t told him to keep his mouth shut but he still spoke.

“Is that Ran Ran?” asked Lin Ruoxi while Yi Chen glared at his friend who couldn’t keep his damn mouth shut.

“It’s me, Auntie. How can these two be fighting? I just saw online that someone uploaded pictures of them being all lovey-dovey. I had to take those down otherwise uncle would be mad,” said Li Ran spilling all the beans and this was just the beginning.

“Oh really. Then this mother can be reassured,” said Lin Ruoxi her emotions calming down considerably.

“Auntie, you really have nothing to worry about. Chen Chen knows what’s at stake. He even had a tattoo of Han Han’s name on his body so he knows the seriousness of this issue. If he loses Han Han he might not even get a wife in the future. He even got the permanent kind so don’t worry.”

Yi Chen, “...”

Is it too late to return his best friend to the store? He needed to get a refund.
