Even if Ho Fei-yu didn't pick it up, his eyesight and ability to read quickly meant he had already read the contents.
Remembering the content, Ho Fei-yu forced himself to remain calm, slowly picking up the paper, trying to appear nonchalant. However, his gulping throat and the cold sweat on his forehead betrayed him.
"Hehe, this... is unbelievable. How could such a scumbag exist in this world? He is hated by gods and men, an absolute crime against nature! This is nothing like me; I'm devoted to one billion people." Ho Fei-yu said sheepishly, launching an attack against the "scumbag" described. Since there were no names mentioned, he felt he might be able to talk his way out of it.
"Oh? You also think he's a scumbag?" A cold voice sounded in Ho Fei-yu's ear, like the chilling wind of the depth of winter, calming his slightly restless heart. Although he didn't turn his head to look, he could guess that Reika Kurashiki's exquisitely cold face was wearing a look of playful amusement.
"(⊙﹏⊙) Uh, perhaps..." After a moment of hesitation, Ho Fei-yu still nodded with difficulty, answering.
"But, he probably has his reasons..." But he immediately changed his tone, starting to defend the "scumbag" described.
"Look, going to a neighbor's house for an hour or two around 8 or 9 p.m. Could it be to help tutor? You can't just assume the wrong thing because it's a widow and her daughter. That's just sensational journalism, isn't it?~"
"And this one, sleeping over at a schoolmate's house. Maybe they're just boyfriend and girlfriend. As for hooking up with some married, famous young mother, that must be libel! And..."
"Damn it! I can't make this up anymore! It's me. What are you going to do?" Ho Fei-yu, while giving a seemingly earnest explanation, glanced at Reika Kurashiki's face out of the corner of his eye. Seeing the playful look on her face grow more intense with his "made-up stories," even a look of derisive amusement in her sky-blue eyes, as if she were watching a clown, he decided to drop the act. He gave up and laid his cards on the table.
"Hehe, I thought you'd keep pretending~"
"Why are you giving up so quickly? I wanted to hear what you would say next." Reika Kurashiki's face curved into an amused smile. She crossed her legs again, one hand resting on her chin, the other on her snowy peak.
"You investigated me!?" Ho Fei-yu tried to change the subject, condemning Reika Kurashiki's actions on moral and legal grounds.
"Investigated? That's one way to put it. I just didn't expect to find so much."
"Otherwise, I wouldn't have known that such a young person is already a scumbag." Reika Kurashiki didn't hide it, although she did conceal a part of the truth. Her purpose in investigating was actually just to clarify the relationships around Ho Fei-yu so she could smooth things over later, fully solidify her position as the boss, and prevent anyone from overtaking her. After all, the first time she slept with Ho Fei-yu, while his stamina was formidable, his technique was incredibly clumsy. He relied entirely on brute force. She had deduced that she was probably his first. However, the second time, his technique had already improved significantly, clearly having made progress with someone else. This made her inexplicably unhappy, which is why she ordered the investigation. She hadn't expected him to be involved with five or six women, which made her furious.
But it wasn't to the point of outright rejection. After all, some wealthy family heads and company owners have dozens or even hundreds of mistresses, often leading to ridiculous disputes over illegitimate children fighting for inheritance. Of course, most of this was due to the rich men's collecting habits. Their actual energy was only enough for two or three, and most were just for showing off in rich circles. For example, some moderately wealthy company presidents in Saitama City have more mistresses than fingers on one hand. There are also rich women who enjoy keeping young male escorts. Logically, Reika Kurashiki should have quite a few escorts at her status, but she actually despised all of them. She either found men her age too old or had no interest in younger men, looking down on them. No one appealed to her. She preferred to be alone rather than settling for less. If she were to just pick anyone, the line of men pursuing her would reach Tokyo Bay. Therefore, she could tolerate Ho Fei-yu having a few questionable female relationships, and she even harbored the intention of becoming his boss.
If Reika Kurashiki knew that it was actually more than five or six, would she immediately squeeze him dry?~
"Hehe... If... I told you that everything actually has a reason, would you believe me?" Ho Fei-yu put down the paper, turned his head, and looked at Reika Kurashiki with a serious expression, although he didn't have much confidence in his heart. After all, not everyone was a lovesick fool like Hanatsu-chan.
"I believe you. Why wouldn't I?" Reika Kurashiki saw Ho Fei-yu's incredulous look, finding it amusing, but her tone changed.
"But what do your affairs have to do with me?"
"Remember, your relationship with me is just as a creditor. At most, you are the male escort I hired with money."
"....."
"I'm sorry..." Ho Fei-yu felt a pang of sadness upon hearing Reika Kurashiki's words. However, considering that he had only slept with Reika Kurashiki twice, his feelings for her weren't as strong as he had imagined. His expression dimmed.
"Shh... Don't just apologize with words. Prove it with action." Reika Kurashiki's exquisite hand lifted Ho Fei-yu's bowed head. Her phoenix eyes, though seemingly cold, were as gentle as water. Her other hand touched Ho Fei-yu's warm lips, her thumb pad slowly grazing his lower lip.
"Okay..." Ho Fei-yu felt a ripple of excitement at the touch of her hand on his lips. Looking at Reika Kurashiki's beautiful, cold face, he could hardly suppress his longing desire.
"Lie down." Reika Kurashiki stood up from the sofa. Her black high heels clicked against the marble floor with a tap-tap sound. Ho Fei-yu followed her steps to the edge of the bed. Seeing her sit down, he also wanted to sit, but just as he was about to, he heard Reika Kurashiki's languid voice.
"On the bed?"
"On the floor."
"The floor?"
She didn't speak, but her head gave a slight nod, indicating he hadn't misheard.
Ho Fei-yu had a guilty conscience and didn't argue. Just as he was about to lie down, Reika Kurashiki picked up a blanket from the bed and spread it on the floor. It was about Ho Fei-yu's size, so she had clearly prepared in advance.
Ho Fei-yu lay down on it, finding the blanket's texture quite comfortable. As he was internally guessing what kind of animal's fur it was made of, he suddenly felt a sharp pain from his dragon's body, triggering a strange sensation within him.
He looked down and saw Reika Kurashiki's beautiful foot, wearing a high heel, stepping with the heel directly onto his dragon.
"Hentai~, you get excited even from this... You truly are a foot fetishist~"
"Mmm~" Ho Fei-yu didn't refute her, because fact outweighed argument. He wanted to defend his scandalous reputation, but his instinct had confirmed everything.
Reika Kurashiki watched the change in Ho Fei-yu's expression, realizing he was already lost in the sensation. Although her face remained cold and indifferent, she was internally ecstatic. Recalling the first two times, Ho Fei-yu had been in control, and she had somehow ended up beneath him. She was a wealthy CEO worth 200 billion yen! Her thirty years of experience and the number of men she had seen far exceeded the number of women Ho Fei-yu had seen. She should be the one on top, not the one being ridden!
She hadn't expected this investigation to bring such a good result. She decided to strike while the iron was hot and properly discipline the young man. Otherwise, she didn't know how many sisters he would have in the future. She might have to queue up!
