In the dimly lit room, only the sound of long, even breathing echoed in my ears.
He Xingjue remained motionless, staring intently at Li Ze without blinking. Li Ze was completely unaware of this; he even turned to face He Xingjue instead of lying flat.
He Xingjue's breathing suddenly quickened, a look of panic flashing across his face. He felt as if his heart was pounding so hard it was about to burst out of his chest—
He wanted to hug the person opposite him, to violate him, to possess him completely...
At that moment, some blurry images flashed through his mind: he was bullying him, he was brutal and cruel, and he was crying!
He Xingjue wanted to see more clearly, but when he tried to recall them, the images disappeared.
Although the image disappeared, He Xingjue was certain of one thing: he and the person in front of him had a very close relationship.
He moved slowly, inching closer to Li Ze, until Li Ze's warm breath brushed against his neck, then he stopped. He embraced Li Ze loosely in a protective, encircling gesture.
Downstairs, Chen Kaiyang, Wang Duan, and Xu Zhou sat at a table drinking nutrient solution.
Xu Zhou: "It's nine o'clock, and the boss and Commander He are still not up?"
Chen Kaiyang: "The boss's schedule is rather irregular, so there's no need to disturb him."
Wang Duan: "Do you guys think Commander He will start relying on our boss from now on?"
Upon hearing this, both Xu Zhou and Chen Kaiyang fell silent.
After a long pause, Chen Kaiyang said quietly, "Look at how Commander He listens to the big boss and follows his every word. Perhaps this is exactly what the big boss wants?"
Wang Duan agreed, "I also think that with the boss's strong personality and powerful strength, he should be the dominant one in their relationship."
Xu Zhou, however, had a different opinion: "I think the big shot is more like the one who should be pampered and spoiled. He doesn't need to worry about mundane affairs and just needs to be pampered by others. If he meets a partner who is strong enough, he probably won't even bother to think."
Xu Zhou could tell the boss was lazy the moment they met.
Chen Kaiyang and Wang Duan exchanged a glance and said in surprise, "What you said seems to make some sense."
Li Ze didn't get up until noon. The moment he opened his eyes, he realized something was wrong: He Xingjue was gone.
The next second, his divine sense swept outwards from the villa and spread outwards.
Hey, I found it.
Having confirmed that He Xingjue was not far away, Li Ze was no longer in a hurry. He first went to wash up and change his clothes before leisurely walking out of the room and downstairs.
The moment he came downstairs, He Xingjue, who was sitting on the sofa in the lobby, looked at him.
Their eyes met, one slightly surprised, the other with a mixture of joy and doubt.
"He Xingjue?" Li Ze asked tentatively.
There was no response.
Someone was still staring at him with bright eyes, as if looking at a beloved object.
"What's going on?" Li Ze looked at Chen Kaiyang and the other two sitting on the other side of the sofa.
Chen Kaiyang shook his head. "That's how he looked when we first met him."
"He seems to be less stupid, but he doesn't seem to remember anything," Wang Duan said.
Wang Duan's words were quickly confirmed.
"Who are you?" He Xingjue stared intently at Li Ze and asked curiously.
Li Ze: "......."
An hour later, Liu Yanzhi appeared at the villa with two nurses.
"Commander He?" Liu Yanzhi greeted He Xingjue.
However, He Xingjue's gaze remained fixed on Li Ze, completely ignoring him.
Liu Yanzhi raised an eyebrow. He walked over and sat down next to Li Ze. Then he saw He Xingjue's eyes and the emotions in them: an intense, undisguised liking and a strong possessiveness.
As he approached Li Ze, He Xingjue, who had been ignoring him, frowned, glanced at him with sharp eyes, and said with displeasure, "Get away from me!"
Liu Yanzhi: "......"
Liu Yanzhi moved to the side until there was a half-arm's distance between them, and only then did He Xingjue's brows relax.
"What's going on?" Liu Yanzhi asked.
"It's just like what you see now." Li Ze's tone was helpless. He wasn't stupid anymore, but it seemed to be developing in a strange direction.
"Amnesia, coupled with this twisted possessiveness?" Liu Yanzhi concluded.
Li Ze rolled his eyes at Liu Yanzhi, "You should have the examination done first before drawing any conclusions."
Liu Yanzhi shook his head, "Some conclusions don't need to be examined; they can be seen with the naked eye."
Li Ze: "......."
However, the check-up still needs to be done.
At first, He Xingjue was uncooperative. Liu Yanzhi and the nurse tried to persuade him, but he remained unmoved and insisted on staying close to Li Ze.
Until Li Ze's face turned cold, "Listen to Dr. Liu, go for a checkup."
This time, He Xingjue behaved himself.
"Even with amnesia, he still obeys your every word, which shows how deep Commander He's love for you is." Liu Yanzhi said with a seemingly unaffected expression.
Li Ze's eyes changed, suddenly becoming sharp, but this sharpness was fleeting, and he returned to his calm demeanor.
Liu Yanzhi felt a chill run down his spine, and a persistent feeling of unease washed over him. He thought to himself, "Li Ze's aura is in no way weaker than He Xingjue's."
Tsk tsk, no wonder the husband's authority is so weak.
Liu Yanzhi carried a lot of equipment with him and borrowed a room in the villa to use as a temporary examination room. After Liu Yanzhi had been working on things in the temporary examination room for more than two hours, they finally came out of the examination room after Li Ze woke up from his afternoon nap.
Li Ze, still lying on the sofa, yawned. "How did it go?"
"The initial diagnosis is that he's no longer mentally impaired. His brain is recovering, and his memory should also return, though the exact timing is uncertain. In addition, I did some other tests—" Liu Yanzhi sighed, "He'll probably only be an ordinary person from now on."
It would be hard for not only the Sentinel himself but also his family to accept that a 3S-level Sentinel has been reduced to an ordinary person.
Liu Yanzhi had already prepared his words of comfort for Li Ze.
To everyone's surprise, Li Ze simply hummed in agreement, "Let it be."
Liu Yanzhi: "......"
He truly deserves to be called a "big shot" by netizens on Xingwang. I admire his character!
Liu Yanzhi left with his equipment and two nurses.
Before long, another visitor arrived at the villa.
"He Xingyang?" Li Ze raised an eyebrow. He arrived so quickly!
Chen Kaiyang and Wang Duan had complicated expressions. He Xingyang was their former boss, and it was He Xingyang who ordered them to kidnap Li Ze. By chance, they switched sides and became Li Ze's subordinates.
In truth, they owe it all to He Xingyang; otherwise, they wouldn't have met such a great boss.
“If you’re too embarrassed to see him, just wait here.” Li Ze glanced at Chen Kaiyang and Wang Duan, noticing the shifting expressions on their faces, and assumed they were afraid of being embarrassed.
Chen Kaiyang and Wang Duan shook their heads in unison, "He was the one who gave up on us first. If anyone should feel sorry, it's him."
"In that case, let's go out and meet him together."
