My father's inheritance is my mortal enemy.

Australia Island boasts stunning scenery, and Li Bo's hotel, located right on the beach, is perfect for couples to stroll and enjoy leisurely activities. The nearby coastline is dotted with shops selling souvenirs and surfing gear related to various countries.

Li Bo, who was forced to wear a jacket, felt a bit hot, so he bought a hat on the spot. When Zhou Yanshao returned after buying coconuts for others, he saw that Li Bo only had a hat in his hand and was quite angry.

Li Bo reached out to take the coconut, but Zhou Yanshao said, "Buy it yourself."

"..."

"You can only buy one hat? Am I not afraid of getting sunburned?" Zhou Yanshao muttered.

"Alright, alright, I'll buy you one. You're such a princess."

"Tsk." Zhou Yanshao was very dissatisfied with this form of address.

"Do you want?"

"want!"

Li Bo bought Zhou Yanshao a similar hat, and only then did Zhou Yanshao calm down, lowering the coconut he was holding and pointing the straw at Li Bo: "I'll hold it for you to drink from."

"No need, coconuts aren't heavy, and I'm not some princess."

"?" Zhou Yanshao looked down at him. "Who are you implying something about?"

"Hahahaha—" Li Bo burst out laughing and reached out to take the coconut, but Zhou Yanshao grabbed his hand and held it tightly. The temperature in his palm was hotter than the scorching sun baking the earth.

"Watch the road, there are cars." Zhou Yanshao pulled the person into his arms. "Walk on the outside."

Zhou Yanshao and Li Bo switched places, letting go of each other's hands and moving the coconuts they were holding to another spot. "I'll hold it for you."

Li Bo looked up at Zhou Yanshao.

Li Bo used to have another name, Li Jianyue. He used to have trouble sleeping at night, so he would always squat down and look at the moon. The faint moonlight peeked through the clouds; it wasn't bright, but it was the only light in the darkness.

A salty sea breeze blew, quite strong. Zhou Yanshao and Li Bo sat under a tree for a while, listening to the sound of the waves. It was quiet, warm, comfortable and pleasant, and Li Bo felt a rare sense of peace.

It was almost eleven o'clock when Li Bo returned to the hotel, took a shower, changed out of his casual clothes, put on a shirt and trousers, tied a neat tie, and prepared to go out to meet the investors.

Raising funds and going public is a troublesome matter. In the Series A and Series B rounds, if the funding chain breaks, all previous efforts will be in vain. Li Bo found investors in advance, negotiated with various parties, and raised the amount of money so that when the company went public, people could see the potential of PlatinumRay and increase its market value.

Li Bo came out of the bathroom, went into the bedroom, and draped a suit jacket over his arm. It started raining as soon as they entered the hotel. It was a bit muggy after the rain, but the restaurants had air conditioning, and given the weather in Australia, it was blowing cold air.

After eating, going outside and being exposed to the sea breeze makes it easy to catch a cold.

As soon as Li Bo stepped out of the bedroom, his phone rang. It was Shu Lang calling about work. Li Bo answered the phone and listened patiently as his coat was pulled off his arm.

Zhou Yanshao said coldly, "Put it on."

"It's too hot," Li Bo said, looking up at Zhou Yanshao.

On the phone, Shu Lang asked, "Mr. Bo, did you put away the contract for the hotel banquet planning from a while ago? I've been looking for it for a long time but haven't found it. The advance payment has come in, and the finance department said they need to check the amount."

"Oh, the one I asked you to bring to my house last night?" Li Bo rubbed his forehead, thought for a moment, and said, "I probably forgot to bring it to the company. Uh... it should be in the second drawer of my study. Why don't you ask Uncle Liu to drive you there and take the document to the company?"

Zhou Yanshao, his face cold, repeated, "Put it on, it's raining outside."

"It's stuffy, I'll wear it later."

"no."

"..." Okay, Li Bo reached out for Zhou Yanshao to help him put on his coat. Shu Lang, who was on the phone discussing a new plan, heard the unfamiliar male voice and asked, "Mr. Bo, do you have friends?"

When Zhou Yanshao dressed Li Bo, the two were very close, and almost half of Li Bo's body was covered by Zhou Yanshao.

Zhou Yanshao not only dressed Li Bo, but also stood behind him, unbuckled his belt, and smoothed out Li Bo's slightly wrinkled shirt. His slender hands and rough fingertips were clearly felt through the thin shirt. Li Bo, who was on the phone, was startled and grabbed Zhou Yanshao's arm.

Li Bo looked up at Zhou Yanshao.

Behind the gold-rimmed glasses, there was a look in her eyes pleading for a pause, a look of emotional collapse.

Receiving no answer, Shu Lang called out softly, "President Bo?"

Zhou Yanshao did not withdraw his hand, but instead said ambiguously, "Stand still and don't move."

The sound was neither too loud nor too soft; Shu Lang heard it clearly.

This was clearly intentional.

Li Bo frowned slightly. "Yes, please continue with the planning."

Shu Lang continued, and Zhou Yanshao was somewhat displeased that the topic of whether Li Bo was with his friends had been brought up. He looked down at Li Bo's smooth, fair neck.

His slender fingers loosened Li Bo's tie, unbuttoned two shirt buttons, revealing a patch of snow-white skin, and he lowered his head and took a bite.

Li Bo was so focused on the immediate situation that he couldn't stop the bite at all. The bite caught him completely off guard, and his hand holding the phone trembled. His words came out unsteadily: "Uh... okay, has President Jiang looked into it?"

"Not yet, President Jiang is in a routine meeting right now and asked me to go and coordinate with the new project." Shu Lang sensed something was off and asked, "President Bo, are you alright?"

Li Bo took a breath, feeling a tingling sensation on his neck.

Zhou Yanshao bit someone, and then, like a dog, licked his wound. The culprit's behavior was not an attempt to make amends, but rather a provocation and a threat.

"It's okay, send it to me later. I have to go meet with the investors now."

"OK."

"The results of Wanrui Auto's planning should be out in the next couple of days. Give me a call when the results are out. Whether it's successful or not, the planning department has been working themselves to the bone lately. You and General Manager Jiang, take everyone out for a nice meal, I'll reimburse you."

"Okay," Shu Lang said. "The results will be out in a couple of days, so Bo should be back by then, right? How about we eat together when you get back?"

Zhou Yanshao moved up two inches and took another small bite, warning and reminding Li Bo: Don't call Shu Lang.

Zhou Yanshao's disgust and hostility towards Shu Lang were almost overflowing.

Zhou Yanshao was very possessive. In his eyes, Li Bo was his person. He did not allow anyone to talk too much with his people, especially in front of him. Even a glance from Li Bo was no different from stealing someone else's love in Zhou Yanshao's eyes.

Li Bo always answered Shu Lang's calls instantly and replied to his messages immediately.

He didn't even receive this treatment.

Zhou Yanshao was furious just thinking about it. He wished he could drag Li Bo back to his "wolf den" and lick him all over, covering him with his scent and marks, so that everyone would know that Li Bo was taken and wouldn't go out and mess around with other women.

Li Bo fastened his belt, making a loud metallic sound.

He raised his hand and pressed his fingers against Zhou Yanshao's head. Unable to push him away, he could only run his fingers through Zhou Yanshao's hair and rub his head like he was soothing a puppy, but the gesture alone was not enough to calm him down.

If this continues, Li Bo's neck will suffer; his shirt won't be able to cover it up.

"I won't go. The project is finished, and I haven't taken a vacation yet. General Manager Jiang just came to the company, so it's a good opportunity for him to get to know the employees. If I go, they'll be too reserved and won't relax. You guys have fun, no need to wait for me."
