In the evening the next day, Xuan Mu had to stay back in his office to prepare his speech about future plans with his underlings. In one of his ears was a wireless earbud, connected to his desktop pc.
Now that he was almost twenty, compared to a fifteen-year-old him, he grew to be more charismatic and intimidating. As always, he wore an all-black attire. A black T-shirt was exchanged for a simple black shirt with rolled-up sleeves. Messy black hair back then was now neatly trimmed and combed to the side. On his left hand, an eye-catching pearly white bracelet could be seen.
Only his face betrayed him, making him look younger than his actual age. He could compensate for it with his mind, a terrifying thing, especially when it was speaking out loud, it’d become a formidable weapon of its own.
His charisma, combined with his modulated voice, could at all times pierce through people’s defenses, allowing him to put his intention inside of them. When Xuan Mu’s targets discovered his dangerousness, it was too late. They couldn’t even fight back nor run away. Their minds were wholly devoured by him. He didn’t know until Bing Shi pointed it out. She didn’t only bring out the worst in him, but also the best.
.....
“Xuan Mu, who is unprofessional now? Voice chatting with your girlfriend while at work?” Bing Shi chuckled.
After her part-time job, she went straight home. Xuan Mu wanted her to accompany him today, so here she was, in her room, adding a few prompts to an architect’s design of their future house, which was going to have an underground base in case of an apocalypse.
“I’m good at multitasking. I can split my mind. One part is making money while the other is thinking about you,” Xua Mu said with a slight smile.
“That’s why you always wear black clothes?” asked Bing Shi while searching for the best insulation materials.
“Mm, why should I waste my thoughts on what to wear the next day?” Xuan Mu answered.
“Makes sense, but I like fashion.” Bing Shi’s eyes brightened when she thought of a backup water well. It would be great in case of emergencies!
“Xuan Mu, did you ever get hard during our voice chatting?” Bing Shi asked with curiosity.
“I did. No. I still do,” Xuan Mu sighed helplessly. Here it came, his curious Bing Shi.
“Oh, Did you do it often?” she continued.
“I did it a lot. Now I don’t have that much time,” he answered. His typing on the keyboard never stopped.
“Oh, how often did you do it when you were still living with your parents?” Bing Shi asked shamelessly.
“Since I met you, around six times a day, sometimes more,” Xuan Mu replied. His long fingers, which were typing on the keyboard, stopped for a second and switched to the mouse.
“Woah, so horny. You had dirty thoughts of me before we dated? You didn’t even know how I looked,” Bing Shi’s ears turned slightly pink.
“When I was doing it, I just thought of you. I didn’t try to imagine you. My thoughts are even dirtier now,” Xuan Mu’s face didn’t even twitch. He knew she’d ask those questions. He continued with his work effortlessly.
“Oh, What about your sister, wasn’t she with you the whole time?” Bing Shi’s ears turned back to their natural color. She continued with her research, a solar system, a filter system, a backup power supply, what else?
Bing Shi had fun. She never knew what boredom was. She was always searching up information. For example, she searched up everything about tea. She used to chat about her findings with Xuan Mu. Thanks to it, Xuan Mu grew to like tea too.
“They pushed her to me to prevent me from committing suicide. After I assured them that I’m fine, they sent her to the kindergarten. I had too much free time,” Xuan Mu answered as he checked his work for any mistakes.
“More than six times? Was MuMu okay?” Bing Shi was stunned.
“It became a bit sensitive to touch. Bing Shi?” Xuan Mi laughed.
“Hm?”
“Are you ?sexual?” Xuan Mu always thought she was, but never dared to ask.
After yesterday, they started to research each other. They didn’t want history to be repeated. None of them judged the other before. They turned down their barriers and revealed all of their dirty secrets without restraints.
“Oh, maybe? I don’t know. I can get aroused from your voice, does it count?” Bing Shi giggled.
“Hm? Huh?” Xuan Mu’s mind blanked out; his body temperature rose up, then cooled down, “What if I don’t satisfy you in the future?”
“We will experiment and find out what works for us. It’s not like I need sex to live,” Bing Shi declared indifferently.
“Yes, who needs sex when I have you,” Xuan Mu chuckled. She was an asexual, a curious one at that.
“Do you watch porn or hentai?” Bing Shi teased him with a giggle.
“...” Xuan Mu stopped working, putting his forehead on the table; he took a deep breath.
“Do you?” Bing Shi didn’t give up and started to laugh.
“I did a lot. Now I don’t have time,” Xuan Mu answered truthfully and started to bump his forehead against the table. Calling Bing Shi during work was dangerous.
“That’s great! We are both inexperienced. We have to learn from somewhere. I found them repulsive. I only liked to read novels and BL, oh, while we are at it, I just finished a good BL and those scenes...” Bing Shi was about to speak about her findings when Xuan Mu stopped her.
“Bing Shi! I don’t want to hear about two men doing it. You don’t mind when I look at other women and get hard?” he asked while his forehead was still on the table. His curiosity won over his embarrassment.
“Would you exchange me for them? Or are you imagining yourself with them? ” Bing Shi inquired with a knowing smile.
“No. I only want you. For me, it’s the same as you, reading your BLs, I only get aroused from the scene,” Xuan Mu stopped the bumping and looked up. The thing he wanted to see the most wasn’t here. There was only his unfinished work, glaring back at him.
