Little Hottie 1
Tong Lu nodded. Normally, she would not be so ill-mannered and barge into her brother-in-law’s study. All the military and government documents were in that room. If she entered without permission and some classified information was leaked, she would surely become a suspect.
That night, the entire mansion was indeed empty. At nine o’clock, Tong Lu and her daughter went to bed early.
At midnight, a man and a woman appeared at both sides of the mansion’s door. They ran into each other and flashed each other a smile.
“As it seems, I have to spend time with you for one night every month.”
The tall and lean woman crossed her arms. She was in a tracksuit and looking quite exhausted, as though she had just rushed over from some military base. The grim and menacing air around her still lingered.
Hearing that, Leng Yerong let out a laugh. He shoved a hand into his pocket. His figure casted a long and elegant shadow under the streetlamp. As if deep in thought, he raised his head to look at the moon and mumbled, “That’s quite true. Speaking of which, it has been two years, isn’t it?”
“And don’t forget about me!”
A car’s headlights cast its dazzling beams on them. An Aston Martin suddenly stopped next to the two of them. Long Yan, who was the youngest person among them, arrived in a spectacular fashion and let out a whistle. He dressed like a punk. The metal pendant around his neck tinkled in the night breeze. He pointed to a carton of beer and some snacks in the backseat of his car. “I’ve brought some beer and fried chicken. Let’s party tonight.”
“If there is fried chicken and beer, I won’t miss it for the world.”
The mad genius doctor, Ji Yiming, arrived after him. He picked up a can of beer and finished half of it. He then raised his head and looked at the time on his phone. “Is it happening soon? To be honest, that fellow suffers because he desperately tries to save face. In a time like this, he should have given me a call and let me stay by his side. Instead, he locks himself in the study one night every month and refuses to see anyone.”
“If I were him, I wouldn’t want people to see me too. It would undermine my gravitas.” Ye Mei leaned back on her car. She understood Leng Yejin’s concern very well.
But they could not stay by his side to protect him. Therefore, on the night of the full moon every month, the four of them would automatically gather by the streetlamp outside the mansion. They would drink and chat while silently showing their support and protect the man they all followed and admired. Once everything was over, they would part ways and pretend that they were never there.
Long Yan was grinning cheekily as he said, “But I really want to sneak a peek at our big brother.”
“I’ll offer you moral support.” Ji Yiming was more supportive of this idea than anyone else. “But are you sure that you can deal with Big Brother Jin’s wrath after this is over?”
Long Yan imagined Leng Yejin’s angry face and shuddered. He quickly shook his head. “I don’t dare to do that. I still want to live. But I’m genuinely curious. I’ve only seen him once when he transformed. I couldn’t believe it at that time. Now… I almost forget how he looks like when the transformation happens.”
‘How does he look like now?’
Presently in the study, Leng Yejin locked himself in a bedroom inside his study. All he could feel was breathing difficulty. His body was slowly drained of all energy. The gnawing and numbing pain forced his towering body to curl into a ball. The moonlight shone into the room through the window. Leng Yejin looked out of the window and stared into the sky. The moon became increasingly round and full.
He shut his eyes in anguish. His face had almost turned completely white. Nobody knew that in that very moment, he felt as though there was a blade in his chest, which was slicing and scraping the flesh in his body from the inside out. It felt as if he was being sliced into pieces.
The ripping pain hurt so much. He barely had the energy to breathe.
He thought to himself in a self-deprecating manner that perhaps he should not get married and drag others into his mess. Leng Yejin thought of the mother and daughter who were asleep in the room next to his. He recalled the fact that she said she wanted to think about her future…
