Anonymous reader, thank you for the Ko-fi!

Cold sweat was pouring down Zhou Xuanxuan’s forehead. Still, he mustered his courage to ask, “Song-ge, did you say it wrong–no, no. I must’ve misunderstood. You’re going to kill me if the boss runs away??”
“That’s right.”
Song Xiabing glanced at Zhou Xuanxuan’s beautiful face. The more he looked at it, the more displeased he felt.
“I’m going to cook porridge. If he runs away in the meantime, I’ll skin you alive.”
Zhou Xuanxuan: “……”
Well.
That’s one more death threat added to the list.
What did he even do this time??
Wasn’t he kidnapped by Shi Qing because of his beautiful face?
Was it a crime to be beautiful??
Moreover, he felt that Song Xiabing’s words were very unreasonable.
Shi Qing was a level seven ability user, and Zhou Xuanxuan lost his primary ability. He only had a weak ass second ability left.
How was he supposed to stop Shi Qing if the man made a run for it??
Sure enough, Song Xiabing just wanted him dead, right?
Even though he had a stomach full of complaints, Zhou Xuanxuan didn’t dare to say anything in front of Song Xiabing. He could only thump his chest and promise, “Leave it to me, Grandpa. I’ll definitely keep a close eye on Shi Qing. You can hold me responsible if he’s missing even a single strand of fur.”
Zhou Xuanxuan only relaxed once he watched Song Xiabing leave.
“Life sure isn’t easy.” The phantom fox sighed.
He opened the door and went in.
Once inside, he knew that he had wronged Song Xiabing.
Fully clothed, Shi Qing was leaning against the headboard with a grim expression. There was a chain attached to his wrist.
A wisp of black mist encircled the chain. Whenever the man struck it with flames, it would immediately spring to life and scarf down the flames like they were some delicious meal. It would settle down again once all the flames had been devoured.
Once it noticed someone had come in, the black mist reared up like it was alive and alertly surveyed its surroundings. It didn’t have eyes, but Zhou Xuanxuan could swear this thing was staring daggers at him. He suspected it would lunge at him and show him what for as soon as he did something suspicious.
Zhou Xuanxuan “……”
I can’t afford to mess with that.
As a result, he pulled up a chair and sat at a distance from the bed instead of approaching.
The man stared at him grimly.
When he saw Zhou Xuanxuan sitting down, he sneered. “How could you sell me out after I treated you so well?”
Zhou Xuanxuan “&#k2026;You&#k2026; Did you treat me well?”
“Of course I did!”
The chained man’s temper flared up. His handsome face was filled with rage.
“I didn’t even kill you after I found out you were a man! Laozi would’ve burned you to death if I knew you were working with him!”
Perhaps all the exertion from cursing was too much. Shi Qing hissed and fumed as he rubbed his butt.
“You gays are all cut from the same cloth. You pretended to be a woman for Laozi’s d*** and that bastard Song Xiabing pretended to be weak. What sins did Laozi commit for the two of you to become interested in me?”
Zhou Xuanxuan: “……”
He pretended to be a woman to seduce Shi Qing??
“Get it straight, Grandpa! You were the one who kidnapped me!”
“Then why didn’t you tell me back then that you were a man?! I wouldn’t have kidnapped you then!”
Zhou Xuanxuan: “……”
…He just wanted to go out with a bang, okay? Dying at the hands of a level seven ability user like Shi Qing was not shameful at all.
But who knew that Shi Qing was attracted to him instead of seeking revenge?
He tried to argue, “I really don’t think of you that way. Not even a little.”
The man sitting on the bed didn’t believe him one bit. “There’s no reason to lie at this point. Don’t worry, Laozi can’t kill you right now.”
Zhou Xuanxuan: …So you’re planning to kill me later??
He tried his best to explain, “Boss, I’m not lying. Not everyone has tastes as unique as Song Xiabing. Even if I like men, you’re not my type.”
The Blazing Thunder Boss’ eyes seemed to have flames burning within. “What the fuck do you mean by that?!”
He spun the chains in his hands like a lasso. “Laozi!! Laozi’s definitely going to kill you today!!”
Zhou Xuanxuan gulped as he watched the black mist begin to stir with Shi Qing’s movements.
“Boss, calm down!! Calm down!!”
“I’m actually here to, well, persuade you. Let’s not talk about all that boring nonsense. Discussing what to do from now on is more important.”
Zhou Xuanxuan hurriedly changed the subject. As expected, he saw the anger on Shi Qing’s face subside.
He asked, “Last night…did you and Song Xiabing…do it?”
He quickly clarified since the man’s expression was darkening again, “Don’t be angry Boss. I’m on your side, ah!! I’m only asking you this so I can help you analyze the situation better. Then we can work together to take down Song Xiabing and save you from what he’s planned for you!”
That was certainly not Zhou Xuanxuan’s actual motive.
By this point, he’s given up all hope of escape.
The best thing he could do now was to mislead Shi Qing into obediently accepting Song Xiabing.
You couldn’t really blame him for being unscrupulous.
After all, things came to this point because Shi Qing fumbled around and ended up provoking the wrong person.
Putting what he did to Zhou Xuanxuan aside, you could see how hard he worked at provoking others since even someone like Song Xiabing couldn’t escape such provocations.
Now that he was thinking about it, were all straight men so good at this?
Zhou Xuanxuan: “How about this? You tell me the details of what happened last night, and I’ll help you find out what Song Xiabing’s weaknesses are.”
Along the way, he’ll figure out the best way to placate Shi Qing and sell him out to Song Xiabing.
Shi Qing thought this was the perfect opportunity.
He just happened to need someone to show off to.
Tongtong was too young and pure. There were some topics Shi Qing couldn’t bring up when talking with it.
Of course, he would never admit that the main reason was that even if he told Tongtong, that guy would immediately delete any explicit memories.
This was great.
He could show off to Zhou Xuanxuan.
Shi Qing: “He said he wouldn’t use his ability or let me use mine either or something. But Laozi isn’t exactly helpless without my ability. I snatched his peach, but damn, this bastard actually let me keep going!”
Zhou Xuanxuan suddenly realized something. “So you ate the peach?”
The man gave him a somber look. “No.”
Zhou Xuanxuan: “He ate the peach?”
The man’s expression became a little more gloomy. He didn’t deny it, but his face was dark enough to start spouting black mist.
Zhou Xuanxuan understood immediately.
He continued to ask, “Then you kissed…no, you were shamelessly done by him?”
Shi Qing: “Of course not. Laozi isn’t the type to take it lying down. I kicked him in the face and told him to get lost.”
Zhou Xuanxuan: “Did he get lost?”
The Blazing Thunder Boss: “……”
He grit his teeth. “He grabbed Laozi’s foot and put me flat on my back.”
“There was no way I would just give up like that. But that guy got chains from who knows where and tied me up. That’s when I used my ability to try and burn him.”
Zhou Xuanxuan pretty much knew where things went from here. “He put your fire out, didn’t he?”
The man’s face darkened again.
“He pulled out a candle.”
Zhou Xuanxuan: Fuck!
Shi Qing: Heeheeheehee.
The stimulation Zhou Xuanxuan received was too much.
His eyes couldn’t help but trail over the man’s exposed skin, trying to figure out where the candle had been used.
Every now and then, he had to hum and nod enthusiastically in agreement.
“That’s right, that’s right. He’s so shameless.”
“Yep, yep. His face is really thick.”
“Boss is right. Such scum deserves to be scorned by everyone.”
After complaining (bragging) to his heart’s content, Shi Qing seemed to settle down a bit.
“There, Laozi said what happened. Hurry up and find a way to get rid of him.”
Zhou Xuanxuan cautiously reminded him, “Boss, you’re bound to him. If he dies, you die.”
The man didn’t care. “So what if I die? I would rather die than suffer this kind of humiliation!”
Normally, Zhou Xuanxuan wouldn’t care if Shi Qing had a death wish.
But the problem was, if anything happened to Shi Qing, his head would be the first on the line!
He could only quickly coax:
“Boss, don’t say such things. How much blood, sweat, and tears have you invested into your Blazing Thunder? You’re also a level seven ability user who can do whatever you want without consequence. Why do that to yourself just to deal with him? Isn’t that a bit excessive?”
Seeing Shi Qing nodding thoughtfully, Zhou Xuanxuan quickly struck while the iron was hot. “You’re just being topped by a man, right? That’s nothing compared to a zombie bite.”
Shi Qing scoffed. “You say that like you’ve been bitten by one before.”
Zhou Xuanxuan stroked his hair. “In fact, one did bite me before.”
“But that’s not the point. The point is… Boss! You’re still young! You have countless admirers! Why ruin yourself for a person who needs to get his eyes checked?”
“How about this? Let’s put in a bit of effort. If he wants to fuck, then let him. Your butt hurting for two days is nothing.”
The man gave him a dark look. “If you think it’s nothing, then let him fuck you instead.”
Zhou Xuanxuan: “……”
He’s not shy or anything…he just didn’t have the guts.
“Don’t be like that, Boss. I’m trying to help you brainstorm here. You’re a man too, so you know how quickly we move on. He might seem really infatuated with you now, but maybe he’ll find some other fresh meat as time goes on. You’ll still be young then, so you can find a bunch of women and do whatever you want, right?”
“…You have a point.”
Shi Qing shook his head in annoyance. “Let Laozi think about it.”
Hehehehe. I’ve found the perfect excuse for my plan.
