The aloof beauty always has weak legs; the crazy boss is too ruthless.

Chapter 37: Is he this gentle with other women too?

A few minutes later, rows of stilted wooden houses came into view, and looking further into the distance, an endless expanse of red poppies covered the mountains...

Lu Siqi finally understood why Mu Sen hadn't let her look around or be surprised before they arrived; it turned out he had brought her to the drug den.

Mu Sen took her hand and led her towards the stilted house. Just as they reached the gate, a red banner descended from the sky, with the words "Welcome back, Brother Feng!" written crookedly.

Brother Feng?

Lu Siqi glanced at the man beside her. He looked displeased, and it was obvious that... Brother Feng was referring to him.

Mu Sen's face darkened; he couldn't stand this tacky welcoming ceremony any longer. He walked over and ripped the banner down. "Where's Ti?"

"Big brother! I'm here!" A slightly chubby middle-aged man peeked out from over the wall, his dimples appearing when he smiled, looking quite cheerful.

Then, I saw him pick up a basket and begin scattering red rose petals...

Seeing this, the others also stood on the wall and started scattering.

In an instant, red petals drifted down in the wind, the scene resembling a bride being helped off her wedding car by her groom, with friends and family showering her with flowers in welcome...

"Stop! Stop right now!" Mu Sen was extremely embarrassed, thinking that only someone as old as Nati could come up with such a corny welcome ceremony.

Seeing his exasperated state, Lu Siqi suddenly wanted to laugh.

Seeing the suppressed laughter in her eyes, Mu Sen leaned down and whispered a warning in her ear: "Keep laughing, or I'll make sure you can't laugh anymore."

Remembering his crazy antics on the plane, Lu Siqi quickly suppressed her smile.

The gang leader, Nati, could tell that her elder brother was dissatisfied, so she quickly climbed down from the wall and opened the courtyard gate. "Brother, you and your wife haven't eaten yet, have you? Why don't you have Dongzi cook something for you?"

A man in his forties called her "sister-in-law," and Lu Siqi was about to explain that her relationship with Mu Sen wasn't the kind they thought it was.

Mu Sen spoke first: "She's not your sister-in-law!"

He glanced at them coldly and said, "Don't you all think before you speak? How could I possibly bring your sister-in-law here? What kind of place is this? Is this a place your sister-in-law would dare to come to?"

A sudden pang of sadness shot through Lu Siqi's heart. She didn't know how to describe the feeling, but... it felt like she was being looked down upon.

Because Musen's words were as if he were telling everyone: he would only bring some unimportant women to this drug den; as for his own wife, he would only take her to a clean and safe place.

……

Lu Siqi remained silent throughout the meal.

She ate very little, and even had some difficulty swallowing. She felt a tightness in her chest, though she didn't know where it came from.

After dinner, I followed Mu Sen upstairs; night had already fallen.

The poppy plantation was brightly lit because there were surveillance cameras every ten meters or so, and people were constantly patrolling.

Lu Siqi didn't ask Mu Sen where this place was, since it had nothing to do with her purpose in coming to Bangnan. Besides, someone as insignificant as her couldn't possibly take down such a large drug den on her own.

After entering the room, Mu Sen took the initiative to tell her, "This is the territory of the Green Bamboo Gang. When I was an informant in Xiaomopo, I was the leader of this gang."

Seeing the surprise in her eyes, he knew what she wanted to ask, "Are you trying to ask me why I haven't dismantled this drug den even though I'm the boss now?"

He asked himself and answered, "If we dismantle the Green Bamboo Gang, this drug den, then many other gangs, big and small, will emerge in Xiaomopo, and even more in Bangnan, because these gangs have already formed a sophisticated drug manufacturing and distribution chain." "Unlike our territory, where everyone can live and work in peace, labor costs are low here, and people mainly rely on growing poppies for a living. Are you going to stop them from growing them?"

“Impoverished countries, having finally acquired the tools to make money, each of them possesses its own armed forces and is supported by various capital forces. For the sake of huge profits, they will never give up the cultivation of poppies.”

"To solve the drug problem, we need to address it from multiple angles; it cannot be changed by human intervention alone."

"My purpose in living in Bangnan for eight years was to figure out their drug trafficking rules, assist in drug enforcement within the country, send messages to Gu Shi and his people so that they could control the flow of drugs from here into the country, and based on the constantly changing drug trafficking methods here, so that we could strengthen our prevention and control measures within the country."

After hearing his words, Lu Siqi asked, "Do these people know your true identity?"

“Nati knows that he was the only one who knew that I faked my death back then. This time when he came back, he claimed to the public that I had to fake my death in order to retire from the criminal world.”

Mu Sen took out matches and cigarettes from his pocket, then realized he was out of cigarettes. "I'll go out and get a pack of cigarettes, and chat with them for a while longer. You rest first, don't wait for me."

……

When Mu Sen returned, he was reeking of alcohol.

As soon as Lu Siqi sat up, he pushed her onto the bed and kissed her.

He cupped her face, kissed her lips, and as their lips and tongues intertwined, his hands roamed over her body. Noticing her resistance, he pressed her hands above her head and whispered in a hoarse voice, "Don't resist. They've made me drink a lot tonight, and it'll easily provoke me."

"I'll try to be gentle tonight and not make a sound. The houses here are all made of wood, so the soundproofing isn't good."

After saying that, he pulled the blanket over both of them and buried his face in her neck to kiss her. "I want you when I'm drunk. Don't refuse me."

Having witnessed his drunken madness firsthand, Lu Siqi tried her best not to resist, lest she anger him again.

Unable to make a sound, Lu Siqi could only bite his shoulder when he tightened his grip.

Covered by the blanket, a suffocating feeling arose, and the heavy, suppressed breathing of the two intertwined, making their intimate caresses even more intense.

At the critical moment, Mu Sen had a bold idea: how great would it be to continue this friend-with-benefits relationship with her after the mission was over?
The thought popped into his head, and he suddenly stopped.

Just as she was getting into it, Lu Siqi gasped for breath and gripped the sheets beneath her, her whole body covered in a light sweat from the heat.

Dispelling the thoughts that shouldn't be there, Mu Sen continued.

But this time, Lu Siqi could clearly sense that he wasn't fully engaged.

It's like a form of venting, just to get it over with quickly.

Although it didn't happen often, Lu Siqi could sense even the slightest change in the other person in this matter. She knew that her relationship with Mu Sen was just that of bed partners, and she shouldn't ask any questions beyond that, as asking would be crossing the line.

So when Mu Sen hugged her in his arms as he always had, she remained silent the entire time.

Perhaps she was tired, she soon fell asleep in his arms.

Seeing that she was asleep, Mu Sen quietly got out of bed, found a brand new towel, soaked it in hot water, wrung it out, and then went to the bedside to wipe her down.

There was a slightly warm sensation, which felt very comfortable. Lu Siqi opened her eyes and saw him wiping her down. Her first thought was: Is he this gentle with other women as well?

—I think so?
—Otherwise, how could the technique be so skillful?
