Chapter 272: 10.13

"Master Long, this is the current review of our trade movement. I think the cartel from the south wants to do something with the tightening security from the government," Long Shen opened his eyes. He found that he was in this restarting point again. He was already a notorious crime lord named Long Zhen, thirty-two years old. He was able to expand the Long family's influence to an international level.

But Long Zhen was always alone. He had many, in fact, so many enemies that Long Shen already lost count. He had many allies as well, though he didn't fully trust any of them. And that was one thing that Long Zhen really wanted and longed for…

Trustful ally… or, in this case, a trustful lover.

Long Shen and Long Zhen had the same characteristic. Both of them were devoid of emotion most of the time and very untrustful to someone. Long Shen was born and raised in an entertainment circle, so trust was something almost foreign in his ear.

"I will talk to the higher-up about the security. As long as our transportations don't get inspected, there will be no problem at all," Long Zhen said. The underling nodded and retreated, leaving Long Zhen alone in his wide and empty room.

It was the same feeling for Long Shen, who was used to a luxurious, wide empty room. Just like his heart.

Long Zhen got up from the chair and walked to the balcony. He was looking at the dark garden, dimly lit by a few garden lampposts. He stared for a moment and then laughed.

"It seems that trashy Director already sent her third spy," Long Zhen laughed mirthlessly. The spy was climbing the wall with his gadget and landed on the room beside Long Zhen's room.

He used the vent and sneaked to Long Zhen's room. Long Zhen already knew what this spy/assassin would do. So he just laid on his bed as if sleeping. The spy suspected nothing, and when he peeked from the vent, he saw Long Zhen was sleeping.

'This is my chance,' the spy said in his heart. He unscrewed the vent and jumped to the room. He slowly approached Long Zhen, who was sleeping and then took out a syringe from his pocket. He took out the syringe cover and ready to kill Long Zhen.

He gently elongated Long Zhen's neck, but when the needle almost touched Long Zhen's neck, the mafia lord's eyes opened suddenly and grabbed the spy's hand.

Long Zhen grinned maliciously, "What are you doing here?"

The spy almost got a heart attack, he skilfully used a knife inside his pocket to attack Long Zhen with his free hand, but Long Zhen already predicted that. He kicked the spy on the stomach until the spy lost almost all his strength. He fell on the ground, wincing in pain.

Long Zhen laughed maliciously and stomped on the spy's chest. "I am not in a good mood for a play with someone like you. I want to meet that incompetent spy, James Grind. Die now."

"No, no, spare me!" the spy begged for the last time.

Long Zhen stomped the guy's heart, and with only one powerful stomp, the guy's ribs were broken, and Long Zhen crushed the guy's heart with his feet. The gruesome death didn't budge Long Zhen at all. He called his men, and his men were shocked when they saw an intruder dead with his ribs crushed, and heart stomped.

"One more time, if you guys let trash like this enter my room. You will be the one who will be lying on the ground," Long Zhen threatened.

His bodyguards gulped and apologized to their mafia boss. They dragged the body and cleaned the floor. They tightened their watch after this, so Long Zhen would get a good night sleep without intrusion again.

Long Zhen washed his bloodied feet with a flat expression. He was not exactly happy with what he did, but he didn't have any remorse. Because he actually knew that guy.

"His name is Pan Ming, twenty-seven years old, quite handsome, although not as gorgeous as James Grind. I dated him for almost a year until he betrayed me because he hated me all along," Long Zhen said to himself.

"They are all the same, both in this world and in my real world."

"But none of them actually touched my heart as much as James Grind. So that's why… I will make sure that he suffers for the sin that he committed to me. That little shit shall pay…"

Long Zhen remembered James Grind's cuteness, and he got even angrier than before. He actually thought for a second that James Grind actually liked him… even just a bit.

Long Zhen undressed and slept with only underwear on. He kept on thinking about that cute spy, even though he knew it would be his doom. That was why he wanted to torture James Grind and ruin his pretty face. So he couldn't beguile other men with his beauty.

"It's true what they said. The most beautiful one is also the thorniest…"

"Hey, I'm not the thorniest! I'm the horniest!" Yunyu yelled at the monitor. Yunyu and Pupa transmigrated back when Senior Pan Ming went on a mission to kill Long Zhen. He already asked Senior Pan to set up a camera near the vent in case he failed the mission.

So right now, Yunyu could see Long Zhen in 4K.

"Mm~ What nice abs, I want to taste it… muehehehe~" Yunyu grinned perversely. He was enjoying Long Zhen, who slept without a shirt on and only a boxer. 

[Pupa: Alert! Fatemeter decreases to -55%.]

"Wait, what? I literally did nothing here! I'm just peeking at him. Don't you think it's too much of a punishment for voyeurism?!" Yunyu protested.

Pupa rolled its eyes and replied, "That's because he is having a nightmare about you."

"That's still unfair!"

"Well, what can I do? Let's just continue with the mission and finish as soon as possible. You are not going to get anything if you keep on your perverted voyeurism," Pupa advised.

"Duh, I was just going to," Yunyu said. He texted his Director with incognito service and let the Director know that he wanted to take the fourth assassin's mission in case Pan Ming died.

"Hehe, now that the mission is not to kill Long Zhen, but to fill his love, I can play the dramaaa~."

"Don't do it too much. You know what will happen," Pupa warned.

"Okay, okay. Geez, Pupa, you are always nagging like an old aunty. You will get old soon if you keep this behaviour."

"I am a machine, do not age."

"That's just a figure of speech! Dangit, just be Larva again! I want to see that cute Larva!"

"No, especially with this version of you. It would be an insult to my past self as Larva," Pupa denied and disappeared. Yunyu pouted because Pupa was not a fun system he could tease.

"Oh well, it will be a big day tomorrow! I need to be well prepared!" Yunyu said as he prepared his stuff for the next big day.
