11:00 AM, March 16th.
The room basked in a soft, warm glow from the dimly lit lighting. A man sat on the edge of the bed, completely engrossed in his phone screen.
The intricate designs on the bedspread concealed the lower half of his body, adding an air of mystery and privacy to the room.
Zhang Wei, with furrowed brows and a look of concentration or amusent on his face, scrolled through the contents of his phone.
Just when he thought he could enjoy a quiet morning, he was surprised by a text from Leng i. If she had dared to wake him up early, he would have already called her to discipline her.
But it wasn't Leng i who disturbed his peace. It was Yu Lei, who, unable to get out of bed due to her disability, couldn't prepare breakfast.
So there he was, sitting next to Yu Lei, engaged in flirtatious conversations with one woman while another sulked beside him and let out occasional sighs.
The sounds of Yu Lei's distress were becoming tireso.
Zhang Wei finally turned his head to look at her. She stared blankly at the ceiling, seemingly lost in her thoughts. "If you don't want to cook, then don't. Why make such a fuss? Just order sothing online," he suggested, an idea he had been withholding for a while.
Yu Lei's brows furrowed as she mustered determination.
Ignoring the brief pain in her legs, she sat up and grabbed his shoulders, fixing him with a serious gaze. "I have decided," she declared.
Zhang Wei sighed, his eyes losing their sparkle, already anticipating another drama. "So what is it this ti?" he asked, lacking enthusiasm.
Undeterred by his response, Yu Lei held her ground. "I need to file a protest!" she proclaid.
"Oh," With a nod and an ignorant deanor, Zhang Wei chose to dismiss her and go back to his own affairs.
"..."
Yu Lei was speechless; however, her next words made Zhang Wei turn his head and take her words seriously.
"No sex from today, except on weekends!" she announced, with her eyes gaining back new light.
"Impossible," Zhang Wei's imdiate response was to reject her idea outright, dismissing it without giving her the opportunity to explain further.
Internally, however, he couldn't help but stifle a laugh.
This was precisely what he had wanted, to push her to a breaking point where she would realize the importance of having more people in their lives.
"T-Then..." Yu Lei stamred briefly after getting rejected, before coming out with a new idea, "Then I need a few more sisters! I can't take this daily, alone!"
Yu Lei's face flushed red, as she was ashd of her inability!
Although she didn't want this humble ho to be spoiled by strangers, that was the only option left.
She preferred if the little won stayed outside without disturbing her life.
Waking up, her mind was clearer and she had realized that for Zhang Wei to conquer more won, she didn't need to worry much.
Those can stay outside in so fancy villas; this was her ho!
However, the morning pain made her discard everything and think of the ancestral saying "sharing is caring".
At the sa ti, she thought of a few advantages to keep them in check. What if soone tries to pull tricks behind her back on Zhang Wei?
Won were really weird beings.
Rationalization was in their blood.
If they like a man, then no matter what he does, everything is good. If he delivers flowers daily, she would be content that he cares for her and loves her.
And if he doesn't give her flowers even for a single day, that ans he doesn't care about artificial gifts and wants sothing more emotional and spiritual.
In both cases, the man she likes is right!
This has been like this forever.
As for the man the won hate, in both cases the man would be wrong. If he delivers flowers, then he cares about artificial feelings, and if he doesn't, then he doesn't care about her enough.
n, beware... Trust won's actions and not their words. If she is attached to you emotionally, she would be the forr but not the latter case.
If she says she loves you and still behaves like the latter, then it's all just a farce!
When Yu Lei was waiting for Zhang Wei's opinion, he had already called a number.
"Hm? Who are you calling?" Yu Lei asked with curiosity.
"You asked for more sisters, rember? One of them should be here in a few minutes," Zhang Wei replied casually.
Yu Lei's eyes widened in disbelief. It was happening so quickly!
The number he had called belonged to Rose.
anwhile, when Rose received the call, she was initially happy, but confusion quickly set in.
Why was Zhang Wei asking her to co to his house?
Did he want to ruin her happy life?
Was this so sort of setup to confront her with the real mistress?
Regardless of the situation, she gritted her teeth and desperately hoped that Zhang Wei's wife would not be ho.
She wasn't prepared to face the bombshell just yet.
Though Zhang Wei claid his wife was harmless, could anyone really believe his words?
A harmless wife, ha!
The sun must be rising from the wrong side.
Contrary to her expectations, Yu Lei was the one in a panicked frenzy. "Zhang Wei, no! Why did you do that? Hang up the phone!" she exclaid.
"It's too sudden, how can I face her? I don't have enough ti to prepare!" She tried to snatch his phone from his hand, but Zhang Wei's amusent fueled his resistance.
He laughed and teased her, "Why are you behaving as if you're the one in trouble? Why should you have to face anyone?"
"Huh?" His words finally snapped Yu Lei out of her panic.
She realized that she was the one in control here. So why should she be afraid?
Shouldn't she scold that woman for trying to deceive Zhang Wei?
Of course, after their previous discussion and today's realization, that possibility was ruled out.
Zhang Wei knew it too, and he struck while the iron was hot.
His life of hugging left and right didn't seem so far-fetched anymore.
Of course, he had called Rose for a specific reason.
He planned to kidnap soone today – none other than the president of the Lin Group, Lin Ruoxi.
His goal was to take over the Lin Group and train Lin Ruoxi to be a compliant slave.
With this, he could finally pour resources into his underground gang and amass a fortune.
As for what he would do with Lin Ruoxi afterwards, he hadn't quite figured it out yet.
The cold and stern president seed like a bully, so he intended to teach her a small lesson and make her his slave before setting her free, just like he had done with Leng Yan.
However, fate had other plans in store for Zhang Wei. He received unexpected information later on that forced him to change his plans for Lin Ruoxi to sothing much more ruthless and unforgiving.
