Chapter 58
Lazuli endured while recounting the current state of Sli Group.
Sli Group was the company she founded independently after inheriting her parents' estate. With her immense wealth, connections from other family elders, and her little brother's underhanded methods, it quickly grew into a major conglomerate.
Currently, its main industries were concentrated in three areas: dining, fashion, and gaming.
They had just begun expanding into the education sector when they ran headfirst into Ye Yu's iron wall.
Ye Yu lay on Lazuli's smooth white thighs, his mind constantly turning.
Then he looked at her and spoke in a calm tone.
"Set up a film and television company later. When the time comes, I'll have one of my girlfriends join it."
Suddenly, Ye Yu thought— if this world had Mizuhara Chizuru, he could let her join the company too. After all, her dream was to become an actress, wasn't it?
Then he added to Lazuli:
"It could even be two. Oh, and prepare a few luxury residences for me too. Send me the locations and keys afterward!"
Looking at Ye Yu's handsome yet utterly shameless face, Lazuli really wanted to strangle him.
Even if I have no intention of being your woman, you still took me! You bastard—using MY money to chase other girls right in front of me? Do you really not see me as a person?!
But she could only grit her teeth and slowly force a smile at Ye Yu.
"Alright… I'll arrange it right away!"
In her heart, she had already come up with several ways to torture and kill Ye Yu.
Though he could control that giant snake and use some strange magic, in Lazuli's eyes right now, he was definitely not unbeatable.
She refused to believe a man like this couldn't be killed by a bullet.
If a handgun doesn't work, I'll use an AK! If an AK doesn't work, I'll use a Gatling gun—or even a rocket launcher!
I will definitely kill this monster who defiled my innocence!
Ye Yu lay on her thighs, watching her struggle to control her facial expression. But her eyes still flickered constantly. He spoke playfully:
"Why do I feel like you're not convinced? Are you thinking about how to deal with me next?"
Lazuli's heart jolted in panic, but her face remained calm.
She gently stroked Ye Yu's forehead, speaking in an extremely soft tone.
"How could I? I've already been completely conquered by you. How could I possibly harm you? I was just thinking… about how to best carry out the tasks you gave me."
Ye Yu smiled at her. He didn't believe a single word.
But he said nothing more. Some things—you only truly understand despair after experiencing it.
His method of training a dog was simple: slap, then slap again. So when she inevitably made a mistake out of overconfidence, he would properly discipline her.
"Alright, then let's go back to the room. We haven't finished talking about our cooperation earlier."
Lazuli's heart trembled at his words. The scenes from before flooded her mind again.
"Are you insane? Again?? Aren't you tired???"
Ye Yu acted as if he hadn't heard. In an instant he stood up, gently pulled her into his embrace, then leaned close to her ear and whispered:
"What? You like the living room? Then I'll listen to you…"
"I didn't—mmph…"
...
Ireena pouted, looking at her phone in extreme displeasure.
"This bastard actually didn't contact me? And he said he liked me—what a huge liar!"
Ye Yu's earlier analysis had actually been very accurate. Ireena, who had no experience dating men, had left a deep impression—both physical and emotional—from Ye Yu after their intimate encounter.
Moreover, she now believed it really was her who grabbed the wrong potion.
So when she thought about it again later, she felt Ye Yu might not be entirely unforgivable.
After all, from Ye Yu's perspective, he didn't know what was in it! And she struck first—he was just retaliating, which was only natural.
Besides, aside from his flirty mouth, Ye Yu hadn't actually done anything to truly harm her.
Even if he killed those people and made her worry sick, it was still to help clean up the aftermath for her!
After comforting herself like this, Ireena's mood became complicated.
She wanted to meet Ye Yu again to talk, but she was too embarrassed to contact him first.
However, not long ago, she received another commission.
The client was a girl who liked feeding stray cats in the small park near her home. But recently, all the stray cats she fed disappeared overnight.
At first she thought a pet rescue organization had taken them.
But yesterday, she suddenly found a cat's corpse in the park.
She recognized it immediately as one of the strays she had been feeding.
The body was covered in countless wounds, a horrifying sight!
From the mangled corpse, it was hard to imagine what kind of cruelty it had suffered while alive.
So she was very worried about the safety of the other cats.
Through a friend's introduction, she found Ireena.
She hoped Ireena could help find the person who harmed the cats.
Normally, Ireena wouldn't take such a low-paying, troublesome commission.
But thinking of Ye Yu—that scumbag who took advantage and ran—she immediately accepted.
Looking at Ye Yu's contact information, Ireena pouted, then finally dialed the number.
Ring ring ring…
"Ireena? Why did you suddenly call me?"
Ye Yu was a little surprised. He had originally planned to find time to see her.
After all, the little potion witch had quite a few good qualities!
"What, you don't want me to call you?"
Ireena said in a very displeased tone.
"Of course not! I'm very happy you called me. Is there something you need help with?"
"Come to my house. I have a commission I need your help with!"
"Alright. I'll come find you as soon as I'm done!"
Seeing Ye Yu agree so readily, Ireena felt a strange joy in her heart, though she didn't know why.
But suddenly she heard a faint, almost imperceptible moan. She asked suspiciously:
"What are you doing? Why do I seem to hear some strange sounds?"
"I'm exercising. There's only workout equipment around me—must be your imagination! Wait till I finish, I'll head to your place right away!"
With that, he hung up before Ireena could say more.
Ireena stared at her phone, still feeling a bit strange.
Was I really imagining it?
An hour later, the doorbell rang at her house.
Ireena had a premonition—it must be Ye Yu.
She checked her hair in the mirror, then slowly walked to the door.
Opening it, she saw Ye Yu smiling at her.
She didn't know if it was an illusion, but the face she once found somewhat annoying now looked much more pleasing today.
"Why did you take so long? Don't you know teleportation magic?"
"The home gym equipment wasn't working well, so I fixed it first before coming."
Ireena huffed lightly, then turned and walked toward the living room.
But before she could take a few steps, she felt herself being hugged tightly from behind!
