Chapter 15 (part 1)
The first light of dawn filtered through the drawn curtains. The two people lying next to each other enjoyed the warmth of the blankets and the closeness of their bodies.
However, only one of them was still fast asleep after the long night of training he had just experienced.
Adam stared in amazement at the sleeping profile of Shàng Wèi.
How had he fallen for that? Could it be that this man had the power to remove every last ounce of reasoning from his mind?
When Adam had woken up a few moments earlier, he had found himself completely stuck to him. He looked like a koala attached to his cool torso. Too bad he wasn't a koala, and Shàng Wèi's body gave off a comforting warmth. Adam had let go of the intimate embrace very gently, afraid of waking him up.
And then he had stood there, staring at his face with its distinct features.
Even as a boy, Adam had spent entire nights studying every single detail of that face. Not that he didn't do i

"Well, look who's here." Someone had said in a dismissive tone, just behind Adam's back. Hearing that voice, Adam had felt a shiver run down his spine. He had turned with a feigned expression of carelessness to face the familiar voice. And found himself facing, in the flesh, the nightmare that had haunted his darkest dreams for the last few months. Not to feel inferior to him, Adam had stood up. Although he was tall and fit, he realized for the first time that Shàng Wèi surpassed him in both height and muscle mass. Considering that he had two equally well-built boys at his side, he felt slightly intimidated but no less combative. "Apparently, bad grass never dies." So he had said, looking at him mockingly. "What's with the grass?" The boy next to Shàng Wèi asked. "It's a Western expression." He had explained. "Ahhhh!" The young man replied with a not-so-bright expression. Although they were just talking, they had attrac

A man sat silently in front of a bay window. Although he seemed to be watching the bustle of tipsy people along the street, he was actually focused on the sound of incessant footsteps he heard coming from upstairs. She's still clearly furious, Shèngli thought. He could tell by the way her feet were being pounded violently on the old parquet floor, the way wardrobe doors were being forced open, and things were being slammed from side to side. He imagined that if he had tried to talk to Claire at that moment, she would have been able to throw the heavy wrought-iron bed at him. In the end, they hadn't exchanged a single word. After ending the call with her family, the only interaction they'd managed to have had was two loud slaps and a knee in a rather sensitive spot. Then nothing. Claire had ignored him for the rest of the afternoon, leaving Lizzie to deal with the closing after informing her that she had a severe migraine and w

The following day Shèngli got up with a severe headache. Hearing no noise from the next room, he went downstairs, expecting to find Claire in the kitchen. He entered the large, brightly lit room but saw no sign of his hostess. He tried to look in the living room; she was not there either. With a strong sense of unease, he looked out the front door; the two new security guards got out of the dark sedan parked outside the house. Shèngli approached them. "Has Miss Carter left yet?" He asked them. "No, Mr. Lin. We came to relieve our colleagues at 06:00 and have not moved since." The younger of the two replied. Shèngli re-entered the house and started calling her loudly. There was no answer. Agitation was taking over. With a cat-like sprint, he climbed the few steps leading upstairs. He opened the door to Claire's room. Everything seemed to be in order, everything was in place, and the bed had been made. Then, however, a strong suspicion crept int

WARNING The following chapter contains explicit sex scenes and is therefore not suitable for underage audiences. Adam, coming out of the bathroom, heard Shàng Wèi's baritone voice talking on the phone. The tone of voice was caressing, almost intimate. Who is he talking to? He asked himself suspiciously. A strange feeling struck him in the pit of his stomach. Was it suspicion or jealousy he felt? He headed for the living room, trying to muffle the sound of his footsteps as much as possible; he wanted to be able to eavesdrop on some shred of that conversation. "You should have warned me at once." He heard Shàng Wèi say. It was strange that he had picked up his mobile phone again just as he had walked away. After making a couple of calls the previous evening, he'd turned it off and abandoned it on the kitchen table. Shàng Wèi hadn't used it for anything, saying he was afraid of being tapped h

Adam woke up around 3 a.m.; it had taken all the stamina he had to knock Shàng Wèi out. He felt somewhat debilitated, but he had a mission to accomplish. First, he checked that the man lying next to him was fast asleep, then went back into the living room. His mobile phone lay on the floor near the window. Shàng Wèi must have dropped it during the first assault. Adam picked it up and typed in the pin code. Fortunately, he had managed to peek at it the morning they had gone to Kan Te. Of course, he looked at the messages and e-mails first, but nothing was strange or shocking. The address book didn't seem to contain any alarming numbers either. All he had to do was look at the call log. The last number that had called him had an area code of +44, the British legend. It certainly wasn't the number of the security agency he had reached the day before, nor was it Shéngli's because the numbers didn't match. Who else could have called there? Whose unknown nu

"Dad, when are you going to make the announcement? There are a lot of things to set up and people to warn. We have to hurry. Poor Maylin is living like a soul in pain." Jia Li's petulant voice interrupted Ming Chun Chu's musings, intent on reviewing the bad contract he held in his hands for the umpteenth time. For many days now, he had shut himself away in his old study to avoid his daughter's complaints and his grandchildren's despotic attitudes. He had no peace at work either, having to constantly correct the mistakes of his incompetent son-in-law. Over the years, he had seen the thriving company that his father had painstakingly built up from a small workshop become weaker and weaker, to the benefit of younger, more economically attractive companies. He was too old to cope with all the technological gadgetry that seemed to have supplanted the dear old personal arrangements. Years ago, Chun Chu had hoped to fortify that precious inheritance

The surprise had been great when a few nights earlier, Chun Chu had found himself within walking distance of Adam again. That evening at the embassy, he had found out a lot about the Carter family. He had unwittingly witnessed a great deal of praise for them. From the comments of some of the guests, his son-in-law was a very influential person, and his three grandchildren were outstanding in the academic, artistic, and professional fields. All worthy of praise and respect. He could not say that about the four family members at his side. Chun Chu turned to look at his daughter's anxious face, nodded abruptly, and said, "Shàng Wèi does not sanction any union." "What does that mean? What does that deviant kid have to do with it? You should talk to Old Lin about this." The woman remarked in annoyance. "Old Lin said we can't expect anything from his firstborn." "Well! There's still Shèngli. After all, he's going into the family business too. Plus,
Love You For A Long Time Chapter 19 (part 1)
Shèngli's sudden arrival was an unexpected stroke of luck for Adam. He would finally be able to call the unknown number, the one he had secretly copied two days before. He had not yet succeeded because Shàng Wèi hardly ever left his side. Instead, he would stay at his house, drive him to work, and pick him up again as soon as he had finished. And when Adam wasn't being watched, he'd put two of Sun Wĕi Qí's best agency bodyguards on him. And when they were at home, of course, Shàng Wèi continued to demand his own 'debt collection,' putting him through exhausting nights of sex, preventing him from thinking about anything else. As a result, his investigations had ground to a halt. It was almost as if Shàng Wèi wanted to prevent him from discovering anything. As soon as the front door closed behind them when they returned in the evening, Shàng Wèi transformed himself into a ravenous predator that claimed its prey. He undressed them with impatient gestures
