Chapter 76: Secretary Shen, Break Up with Her

Shen Chi thought of the contract he had signed before. The more readily he had signed it back then, the more regretful he felt now.

He just knew it. There was no such thing as a free pie falling from the sky!

That 50% increase in his annual income had all been for emotional damages. No, by now, it was no longer just emotional damages!

Shen Chi’s mind was a mess. He had no idea how to face what came next. He even forgot to struggle, letting Lu Chenzhou pinch his waist as he listened weakly to all those insane words.

If this were before, he could still deceive himself. It was just one bite from Lu Chenzhou. It was nothing. He would treat it as being bitten by a dog.

But now, he could no longer lie to himself.

He looked at the other man just like that, his beautiful eyes misty, as if tears would fall in the next second. His whole person looked helpless and pitiful, and even his voice sounded broken.

“Madman.”

Lu Chenzhou’s eyes darkened for an instant. He should have pulled him into his arms and comforted him properly, instead of confronting him like this.

But he had no right.

Hugs, kisses, and even more intimate actions were things only lovers or spouses could do. The only reason Shen Chi was still standing in front of him was because of those despicable methods he had used.

Since that was the case, then he might as well be even more despicable.

After all… he could not smile and bless Shen Chi to grow old together with someone else. He might as well kill him!

“Secretary Shen, can your girlfriend do this?”

“Does she know you were temporarily marked by someone else?”

“Does she know you hugged, kissed, and even slept in the same bed with someone else?”

“Secretary Shen…”

Every word smashed into Shen Chi’s ears.

Thank goodness this girlfriend was someone he had made up. Otherwise… even Shen Chi himself would look down on himself.

“Enough!” He did not want to listen anymore.

Under that hoarse voice, as if he had been pushed too far, Shen Chi’s face was pale. The shower above his head was still running, warm water falling over him, but all he felt was cold.

Lu Chenzhou pressed forward step by step. His eyes were full of mad greed and possessiveness.

He was his.

Secretary Shen could only be his!

“Secretary Shen, break up with her.”

Those words were far too shameless.

It was clearly all his fault, yet he was forcing Shen Chi to break up.

There was nowhere left for Shen Chi to retreat. His back pressed against the cold wall, and his chaotic mind suddenly became clear.

He stared steadily at the other man. After a long while, he parted his lips slightly. “I won’t break up with her.”

A voice in his mind told him that once he broke up, this lunatic Lu Chenzhou would only become even more unscrupulous.

“She isn’t you. She’s different from everyone else. I’ll be with her forever.”

These words were like a mockery of Lu Chenzhou.

She was true love, while he was nothing but a clown.

Lu Chenzhou’s face slowly turned cold with every word Shen Chi said. He roughly tore off the tie at his collar, then took off his water-soaked suit jacket.

What had happened earlier had given Shen Chi too great of a shock. Now, seeing him suddenly take off his clothes, his pupils shrank sharply, afraid that he would do something even worse.

However, the other man reached out again and pressed him back.

The corner of his mouth curved beneath the cold bite-stopper, and he said casually, “Don’t be nervous, Secretary Shen. I’m only helping you wash up. Don’t worry, I’m not that much of a pervert.”

Shen Chi’s lips trembled. He wanted to curse again.

This was not called being a pervert?

How much more perverted did he want to be?!

“President Lu, please have some self-respect!”

If Lu Chenzhou knew how to write the words “self-respect,” this scene would not be happening now.

He said indifferently, “What is Secretary Shen afraid of? Afraid of your girlfriend? Don’t worry. As long as I don’t say anything, she won’t know a thing.”

Too shameless.

Now he was not even pretending anymore.

Shen Chi’s sense of morality was still too strong. Even after being forced to this point, what he wanted was still for Lu Chenzhou to stop, not to smash his dog head in.

The huge difference in strength between an Alpha and a Beta was clear. Shen Chi tried struggling a few times, but in the end, he gave up.

He thought, with a sense of self-destruction, that they had kissed, and even that had happened. This last bit was not much different.

It looked as if he had successfully comforted himself, but in truth, he was already on the verge of breaking down.

Fortunately, this time, Lu Chenzhou acted like a human being. When he said he was helping him shower, he really only helped him shower.

After the shower, Shen Chi even rarely got to enjoy a tyrant CEO’s service.

Getting dressed, blow-drying his hair, even putting on his slippers—Lu Chenzhou half-knelt and carefully slipped them onto his feet.

All the work Shen Chi had done before now became Lu Chenzhou’s. Not only did he do it without complaint, he was even immersed in it, unable to extricate himself.

“All done, Secretary Shen. After brushing your teeth, we should go to sleep.”

Shen Chi looked at the toothbrush the other man handed over. Toothpaste had already been thoughtfully squeezed onto it.

Seeing that he did not move, Lu Chenzhou raised his brows. “Secretary Shen, do you need me to help you brush your teeth?” After saying that, he added, “It’s not impossible.”

The moment Shen Chi heard this, he quickly shoved the toothbrush into his mouth.

A trace of regret appeared on Lu Chenzhou’s face. But soon, after Shen Chi finished brushing his teeth, he pulled him back to his own bedroom.

Every inch of Shen Chi’s body was written with resistance. “I can sleep in the guest room!”

Lu Chenzhou stared at him. “If Secretary Shen still has the energy, I don’t mind doing it again. Anyway, I don’t care whether you have a partner or not.”

Only what he held in his arms belonged to him.

As for status, it was only a status. He could give that up too.

Facing such a shameless person, Shen Chi had no choice at all.

Lu Chenzhou knew what Shen Chi was afraid of. He did not want to push him too far, although… he had almost already done so.

“If Secretary Shen is worried, I can take another inhibitor.”

Shen Chi said nothing. He only looked at the pheromone bracelet on Lu Chenzhou’s wrist.

At this moment, the bracelet sat quietly around his wrist. Its presence was extremely low, like an ordinary watch, but Shen Chi still could not feel at ease.

“Call Doctor Ji.”

Lu Chenzhou clicked his tongue. Although he was displeased, he still did as he was told.

The moment the call connected, Ji Yanzhi was still awake. Thinking something had happened again, he was already about to prepare his things and rush over.

Then he heard Shen Chi’s voice.

“Doctor Ji.”

Ji Yanzhi made a surprised sound. “Secretary Shen, it’s you? Why are you suddenly calling me with President Lu’s phone?”

The previous call had been cut off, but Ji Yanzhi had not thought too much of it. He had assumed the phone had simply run out of battery, or something else had happened. Besides, in that situation, he had already gathered almost enough information.

Shen Chi pursed his lips, skipped over what had happened in the car and bathroom, and only asked about the pheromone bracelet.

Ji Yanzhi said, “Oh, the pheromone bracelet. I’ll send you the data. There’s a threshold chart. A pheromone level within 60 is green, meaning normal. 60 to 80 is a blue warning. 80 to 90 is a yellow warning. Above 90 is a red alert, and an inhibitor is needed.”

Shen Chi had not known any of this information before. Based on the data Ji Yanzhi sent, he looked at the pheromone bracelet again and nearly jumped up.

“President Lu, tell me, why is it 88 right now and still showing green?!”

Lu Chenzhou had not expected to be exposed here. His eyes flickered, and he avoided Shen Chi’s gaze.

That guilty expression made Shen Chi so angry he wanted to hit someone.

“Lu Chenzhou, you still want to lie to me?”

Lu Chenzhou lowered his head and said quietly, “I raised the threshold.”

The management authority had previously been with him, so he had been able to adjust it however he liked.
