The Devil who devoured Snow White

Si Hongqi approached his assistant, Sean Lun, who was standing outside the car.

"Oh, you're back already Mr. Si?" Sean asked in wonder. He thought that he would be staying longer than expected since he knew that it was a girl's place his boss was visiting.

Without saying a word, in the next second, Si Hongqi stood in front of his assistant. He slammed his palm on the car and stared intensely at him,

Sean was startled when he looked up at his boss. He was shorter than Si Hongqi so he had to arch his neck to level his sight on him. He gulped nervously when he saw his boss' face inching closer to him. What was happening? Did he do something wrong?

"What do you feel?" Si Hongqi sternly asked as he came to a stop from closing in the gap between their faces.

Sean gulped nervously. Huh?

"Be honest." His words were more like a threat.

"Sir, I am embarrassed…" he didn't have a choice but to concede. "My heart is racing... Now that I can get a closer look at your face, you're even more stunning... I-if I was a girl, I wish I could kiss you..."

It was a good thing that there was nobody around or else, the poor assistant would have died out of embarrassment.

Finally, Si Hongqi released his assistant from the kabedon. "Right. That should be the normal reaction," he mumbled under his breath as he took a step away from the other man.

That should be the reaction he was expecting from her but why was it the opposite? It was not like how she reacted back then in his place. Aside from that, how could she reject him after gazing closely at his face?

Sean cleared his throat to regain his composure. "S-Should I drive you home now, sir?"

"Yes."

The assistant opened the back door for his boss.

Si Hongqi got on and sat at the seat. He sighed heavily. Yes, he wasn't lying when he told her that he wanted to see her. He actually just decided it on a whim while he was on his way back to his place.

After shutting the door, Sean hurriedly walked round the car and got on, sitting on the driver's seat.

Si Hongqi inwardly sighed as he looked at the scenery they passed by from the car's window. It was not like he liked Tian Ruyi but he couldn't help but find her interesting. Something about her intrigued him. He would be lying if he denied that he hadn't been thinking about her lately. 

Little did he know, a pair of eyes caught them. Tian Ruyi was standing by her balcony and was rather in shock when she saw the kabedon that Si Hongqi did to his assistant. 

…

The morning began with Lu Mengjie feeling her husband's morning wood from behind. As he wrapped his arm around her waist and pulled her closer to his warm, strong chest, she muttered hoarsely while she rubbed the sleep from her eyes. "You're being rather unruly this morning."

"I can't help it, sweetheart. You're stunning and seductive every morning," he muttered, nipping on her shoulder. "Waking up to you is one of my favorite parts of the day."

She was flustered at his words but she liked it this way. She liked how Yong Liwei was becoming sweeter to her each day. She turned her body to face him, placing a soft kiss on his chin. "What do you want for breakfast?"

"Leave breakfast to me," he replied while stroking her hair. He may not look like it, but his pupils dilated for a second when he heard that she was going to make breakfast. Knowing how bad her cooking skills were, he decided to politely decline her without being too obvious.

"Do you know how to cook?" Lu Mengjie wondered. It was going to be the first time for him to prepare something for her so she was kind of excited.

"Of course." He released her from his hug before he sat up. He was supposed to say 'I'm better than you' but he held back his tongue from doing so. He probably shouldn't tell that to her. Instead, he kissed her forehead before he left her in the room.

While Yong Liwei was preparing their breakfast, Lu Mengjie made up their bed before she went and took a bath to prepare for work that day. She even ironed the clothes that Yong Liwei was going to wear before she left the bedroom.

"Not bad." Lu Mengjie nodded her head in approval after having a taste of his cooking. "It's delicious."

"I'm glad that you like it," he chuckled. "Anyway…" he paused and made sure that she had gulped down the food she was chewing before he continued, "do you want to meet my adoptive parents?"

It was a good thing that Lu Mengjie was not eating anything anymore or else she would have choked on her food. "Y-Your parents?"

Now that she thought of it, she hasn't met his adoptive parents, the Yong family, yet. "I… I don't mind." Although just the thought of meeting them already made her nervous. "When will we be meeting them?"

"Do you have free time this week?" Yong Liwei wanted her to meet his adoptive parents before he left for the Azure Republic.

As if knowing what he was probably thinking, she nodded her head. "I can make time tomorrow."

His eyes softened as he saw how willing she was to meet the couple that took care of Han Yizhou. He was going to introduce her to the people he saw as his parents as well so it meant a lot to him.

"I should buy some gifts for them later then." Lu Mengjie grinned at him. "Help me buy some gifts for them later, okay?"

"Hn."

Lu Mengjie's phone vibrated in her pocket so she took it out and checked who messaged her. Her eyes widened in disbelief after reading the contents of the message.

"What's wrong?" Yong Liwei wondered.

"Si Hongqi's turned gay!"
