Manipulative Harem God

Chapter 9: "Are you trying to seduce me?"

Chapter 9: "Are you trying to seduce me?"

Zhang Wei and Yu Lei woke up to the soft glow of the morning sun filtering through their sheer curtains. The air was cool and crisp, hinting at the coming of autumn. Zhang Wei stretched his arms, feeling his muscles come alive after a good night's sleep. He glanced over at Yu Lei, who was still curled up under the duvet, her hair falling in loose waves around her face.

He smiled at the sight of her, feeling a warmth spread through his chest. He leaned in and brushed a gentle kiss on her forehead, causing her to stir slightly. She turned over, her eyes still closed, and snuggled closer to him. They lay like that for a few moments, enjoying the simple pleasure of being close to each other.

Eventually, they both got up. Zhang Wei made coffee while Yu Lei prepared breakfast, whipping up some eggs and stir fired-vegetables.

As they sat at the dining table sipping coffee, Zhang Wei's mind was elsewhere. He received a text from an unknown number early that morning - it was from Hao Yue, the woman he had been seeing on the side. She said she had left her phone in the kitchen the day before and asked Zhang Wei to retrieve it before Yu Lei found it.

Zhang Wei texted her back, lying that Yu Lei had already discovered the phone and its contents. Hao Yue was immediately panicked, her fingers trembling as she typed. But Zhang Wei reassured her that he had taken care of Yu Lei and instructed her to meet him at Ghostly Pass on the Northern outskirts of the city as soon as possible.

He would leave to meet her once Yu Lei left for work. Hao Yue agreed after some hesitation, suspicious of the meeting location in the North District when both of them lived in the South.

However unlike Zhang Wei, Hao Yue can't afford to live in luxurious Southern heights area.

Traveling from the northern part of the city to the southern end could take up to two hours in moderate traffic, making it a lengthy and time-consuming journey.

So it made no sense for her to come all the way to north district.

Zhang Wei explained that they needed a place without any cameras to avoid suspicion, and he shared the story that he had told Yu Lei. He also added that Yu Lei had filed a legal case against Hao Yue for extortion, and she might receive a notice from the police station soon. Although the case was filed by Zhang Wei with the help of Leng Yan, he lied and needed to keep up the charade.

To meet and plan their next move, they needed a place with no surveillance, and Zhang Wei suggested the Northern Qingyun Highway. Although Hao Yue felt relieved by Zhang Wei's excuse, she also panicked at the thought of legal trouble she might face. She agreed to meet him at the highway, located in the northern region of Qingyun City exit that linked it to Xianghui. This stretch of road was notorious for being dangerous, with a mountainous area nearby completely devoid of any security cameras. The lack of surveillance posed a significant threat to drivers, making it a prime spot for illegal activities and potential accidents.

The Ghostly Pass was a treacherous stretch of mountain road in the northern region of Qingyun City, known for its ghost sightings and unexplainable accidents. Dense fog often engulfed the road, reducing visibility to almost zero, making it even more dangerous for travelers. The road was narrow, winding, and steep, with sharp turns that required drivers to be extra cautious. The pass was also devoid of any security cameras, and the only safety measures in place were a few rusted guardrails that barely provided any protection.

Adding to the ominous nature of the pass was a death cliff located on one side of the road, a steep drop of hundreds of feet that had claimed numerous lives over the years. Locals believed that the cliff was cursed and that the ghosts of the deceased haunted the pass. The Death Cliff at Ghostly Pass loomed ominously over the treacherous jade waters of the Jade River Valley Waterfall, where the water's strength was so overwhelming that anything that fell into it was swept away, never to be seen again. It served as a reminder of the deadly consequences that awaited those who did not exercise caution.

Afterwards, Zhang Wei called a transportation company in Xianghui City, having properly devised a plan to dispose of Hao Yue in his mind.

Yu Lei was preparing breakfast, but Hao Yue hadn't arrived yet. She even wished she wouldn't see the latter's face. Hao Yue didn't dare to come today without prior confirmation. After all, if Yu Lei found out about her relationship with Zhang Wei, it would be a catastrophe if they met in person.

After talking with Zhang Wei, Hao Yue realized her fear had turned out to be true. Yu Lei had indeed found out about them, so she made the right decision not to come to work today.

After finishing his coffee, Zhang Wei stood up and walked to the kitchen. The dining area, living space, and kitchen were seemingly connected, and within a few steps, he arrived in the kitchen.

Yu Lei was making her custom made recipe of congee for breakfast since she would have to leave for the office soon. Making anything complicated would be too time-consuming, and Zhang Wei was fine with it. Yu Lei was a good cook. She was wearing a sheer black apron that clung to her curves, revealing a hint of skin beneath and leaving little to the imagination. Her back was completely exposed, a smooth expanse of skin that begged to be touched. The way the light played across her bare flesh was mesmerizing, and he couldn't tear his gaze away.

"Hmm?" Zhang Wei was amused by this woman's bravery. They were living alone, so it was fine even if she went naked without any clothes. But wearing this while cooking? What exactly did this woman want?

He snuck up behind her and caught her slender waist.

"Are you trying to seduce me, wife?" he whispered, his hot breath tickling her ear.

Yu Lei felt a tingling sensation spread through her body, and she couldn't help but melt into his embrace.

"I-I am not!" she protested weakly, her blushing face betraying her true intentions.

Zhang Wei knew that body temperature is one of the independent determinants of heart rate, and respiratory rate, with approximately 1° celcius increase in the temperature causing, heart rate to to increase by 10 beats per minute, and so does the rapid breathing.

He could tell that Yu Lei was genuinely embarrassed by her rising body heat.

But she wasn't always shy when it came to expressing her love. Sometimes, she could be rather bold. Like right now.

She switched off the gas sneakily, completely willing to take things to the next level...

Zhang Wei could only shake his head at her antics.

He grabbed her face and turned it towards him, kissing her passionately.

Yu Lei was momentarily stunned, but then she relaxed and wrapped her arms around his neck.

Zhang Wei flicked the apron off her body with a single deft movement, then began to suck on her lips.

"Mngh....ngh...." Yu Lei moaned as she felt his hands roam across her back, then sneakily move down to her plump buttocks.

Before long, she could feel a hot sensation building between her legs.

Her eyes opened wide, and she tried to push him away. "H-Husband, not here..."

But Yu Lei soon realized that she was going to have to pay for her bravery today.

She had dared to schedule a lone man to come to the house, and she thought she could get away with it without repercussions? She wanted to suggest moving somewhere else, but Zhang Wei could already feel his manhood straining against his pants.

He couldn't wait any longer.
