The Assassin's Enemy Lover-Chapter 75

75 Front view, back view and side view hehe ｆ𝘳e𝒆w𝗲𝐛𝘯𝐨νe𝚕.cｏ𝓶

Yi Chen wanted to laugh at his cousin’s misfortune but he was anxious to find out about this new fetish that had sprung up from who knows where thus he just stared at Leila. He stared at her for a second or two but there was nothing.

She was dressed provocatively unlike Zi Han with a racy mini skirt and a fashionable white blouse but Yi Chen felt nothing. He even took a second glance but he did not react at all nor was he interested in looking again.

When he faced Zi Han the moment he stepped into the classroom his heart jolted like it had been electrified. His palms were sweaty and his throat was as dry as the sand planet despite him having been hydrated.

And when Zi Han bent over in front of him his mind exploded like fireworks. He had the urge to do inexplicable things to him and for a split second, he actually thought he might. This was a complete contrast to when he met Leila. There were no fluctuations in his body and his cucumber was flaccid.

It was then he discovered that Zi Han might be the cause. But making this conclusion based on such a small number of subjects didn’t seem so accurate so he decided to conduct further research.

While he was analyzing the results like an amiable scholar, Yi Feng who had poked the hornet’s nest was enduring an earful from Leila whom he had provoked.

“Tonight if I won’t suck you dry Mr Yi then my name is not Leila,” she said taking off her other heel to throw it at him. 𝐟r𝒆ℯ𝘄𝑒𝒃𝚗𝒐𝘃e𝗹.c𝘰𝐦

“But your name isn’t Leila? For fuck sake it was a joke,” said Yi Feng shivering from fright when she mentioned sucking him dry. That man in a dress was no shou. He was a full-blown top and he would top gladiators with a dress on.... so yes, Yi Feng was terrified.

“Come here..... don’t hide behind Yi Chen. Oh, by the way, I forgot to greet you. Please don’t blame me blame your cousin,” said Leila putting on her heel back feeling a little embarrassed. She never got to hang out with Yi Chen.

.....

He was a stoic character that preferred to spend his time in the military training room than spending time with lowly mortals. Leila had even met Ming Ming and Yi Youxi a couple of times but their older brother was a rare gem that plenty could only see through Starnet. Even then it was rare to find any pictures.

Yi Chen nodded at her politely before turning to Yi Feng who was hugging him like a koala refusing to let go. “I am hungry.... how about some wings or something?” asked Yi Chen almost short-circuiting Yi Feng’s brain.

He couldn’t believe it. Since when did Yi Chen want to spend time with him like this? Was he so leisurely? “What? You don’t want to?” asked Yi Chen after his cousin stared at him all bug-eyed like a fly that had been zapped by the bug repelling light.

“Uh, no I mean yes. I want.... I want to have dinner with you,” he stammered before glancing over to the private bar to give instructions to the bartender, “make an order for number ten on the menu. Half spicy and half not.”

“Yes sir,” replied the bartender before tapping a floating screen beside him.

“Are we drinking as well?” asked Yi Feng glancing in Yi Chen’s direction. The legal age for drinking in the federation was sixteen that is only if drinking in private. One could drink in public at eighteen but Yi Chen didn’t drink much. This is why he thought earlier on that it would take a lot of convincing for his cousin to try his intoxicating cocktail that he dutifully named slutty toad because of its green colour. Yes, it was a horrible selection for a name but its potency was something to be admired.

Yi Chen who was already feeling the effects of the slutty toad from before nodded his head. After what happened today he was in much need of some liquor to get out of his head.

Yi Feng excitedly got up to personally take care of it leaving Leila alone with Yi Chen. Leila who was in the presence of this rare subspecies wasn’t at all deterred by his silent nature. In fact, she was a little excited leaning forward while resting both her elbows on her thighs. She propped her chin up with her curled hands and inquired.

“Why ask for me personally? Is there something you want to ask me?.... I saw the way you looked at me earlier as though you were probing for something? I am all ears,” said Leila with a sly smile on her face.

Yi Chen wasn’t at all surprised by her good observation skills. This person was a top-tier researcher outside this nightclub hence it was only natural. His cousin was all over the place but he somewhat attracted smart people around him and Leila was one of them.

Yi Chen grinned with his head lowered before saying, “You are indeed right? I have come across a situation that I believe only you can shed further light on... Is Miss Leila willing to hear me out? That is on the condition that you keep this conversation confidential.”

“Hold on,” she said before turning to look at Yi Feng, “Feng darling can I have the rotten apple cocktail!”

“Hey!..... That would at least take me thirty minutes to make! Oh let me ask Fred to make it fo-,”

“Nope, I want the one you make darling. I need to get sloshed tonight,” she replied before Yi Feng yelled back,

“Fine! I only blame myself for adopting you. I should have left you at the pet store.”

“I heard that!” yelled Leila before turning her head back, “I just bought you forty minutes.”

“I thought he said thirty minutes?” asked Yi Chen with a raised brow.

“Well an extra five minutes of him screwing up and another five minutes of him garnishing. You know your cousin is too much of a perfectionist when it comes to cocktails,” said Leila and in the background, one could here Yi Feng opening and closing cabinets angrily. He looked like an angry gourmet chef after someone moved his stuff.

Yi Chen chuckled for a second before asking, “Do I have your vow of confidentiality?”

“Yes, you most certainly do. I mean I am not the kind to speak nonsense. You have thirty-eight minutes before that blabber mouth comes here,” she said her expression much more serious than before.

Yi Chen bit his lower lip and nodded his head before saying, “Just recently I saw a distant acquaintance ahem..... I saw a distant acquaintance wearing a skirt and I found myself a little interested.”

There was no change in expression on Leila’s face but she would be lying if she said she wasn’t surprised. It’s common knowledge that the quiet ones are usually the worse ones but she didn’t think the future pillar of the federation had such interests.

But no matter who they are she would welcome them with open arms. “You were interested as in to wear the same clothes or t-,” he said but Yi Chen interjected,

“No like, I found it attractive.”

Leila’s eyes widened a little. This time she couldn’t contain it. It was like discovering a cold statue actually had feelings more especially sexual feelings and toward a man in a dress to boot. This was indeed fascinating.

“Do you feel the same way towards me?” she asked feeling a little flattered but Yi Chen shut it down as quickly as possible before that thought could grow roots.

“No, I thought I would but no,” he said trying to be as respectful as possible but no matter how respectful he was it still stung Leila a bit.

“Tch, that’s your loss... Maybe I am not your type. Do you have a picture of this mystery person? Maybe I can show you some pictures of my circle of friends who have the same body frame,” suggested Leila as she opened up her light brain.

Yi Chen hadn’t taken any pictures but based on how much these cadets loved gossip someone might have already uploaded Zi Han’s picture on Starnet.

After a few taps, he found it. Sure enough, they didn’t disappoint. There were both front views, back views and side views each image as mesmerizing as the next. Yi Chen was suddenly reluctant to show Leila an image of Zi Han.

Why? It was because he was well aware of Leila’s reputation. They might not know each other well but he knew that this one right here was a man-eater.

Yi Chen changed his mind and decided to describe Zi Han’s appearance instead but who would have thought Leila would beat him to it and view the images before he could close them.

“Wow..... he is absolutely my type. Fuck... is he straight? I like a good challenge,” declared Leila forgetting that this was the future Marshal’s love interest.
