Even hybrid monsters have their day

"Is anyone home?" Geng Miaowan called out softly.

However, the hall remained empty and quiet.

"Is anyone home?" she called out again.

The living room was still empty. She listened intently, even checking the adjacent bedroom, but heard no sound from anyone. She muttered to herself, puzzled. What was this person up to? Calling someone over but then not showing up themselves—what kind of logic was that?

Just as she was full of complaints, she suddenly felt a movement behind her. Before she could react, she was already in a warm embrace.

The man hugged her from behind, grabbed her struggling hands and pressed them against her body, closing his arms around her so that she had no room to struggle.

"Who are you, and what do you want?" Geng Miaowan asked, barely managing to remain calm.

At this moment, Xu Ruwen and Huangfu Aoxuan in her sea of ​​consciousness were ready to go out and catch the other side off guard at any time. However, the two of them were her lifeline, and she would not let them out unless absolutely necessary, without knowing the other side's strength or weakness.

The person behind her didn't answer her question, nor did he make a sound. She hadn't even noticed when he appeared behind her.

Just as Geng Miaowan was wondering what this person was going to do, she felt a shallow breath coming from the side of her neck. The warm breath on her neck made her sensitive skin break out in goosebumps.

"Who are you, and what do you want?" Geng Miaowan asked again.

The person still didn't speak, but moved even closer to her neck. This time, Geng Miaowan could even clearly feel something soft gently touching the side of her neck. Immediately afterwards, two sharp objects pressed against her arteries.

She wasn't sure what it was, but she knew she really disliked the feeling.

"Who exactly are you? If you invited me here just to do something so pointless, I'll make you regret inviting me today!" Feeling like she'd been tricked, her tone inevitably became somewhat fierce.

"Hehe..." A low chuckle sounded from the side of her neck, and the breath from that person's mouth gently patted her neck. Geng Miaowan felt something touch her neck, warm and wet.

She considered what it might be. Her face immediately darkened. "If you keep this up, I'll get rough with you!"

"It smells so good..." The person licked it lightly one last time with great reluctance before letting go. "He really is a very special person. No wonder that guy treats him differently."

"You scoundrel!" As soon as Geng Miaowan was free, she turned around to slap the man, but he quickly took two steps back and dodged her slap. Not only did he successfully avoid her slap, but he also sat steadily on the sofa next to her, looking at her with a leisurely and amused smile.

Geng Miaowan looked at the man sitting on the sofa in surprise, never expecting it to be him!

"What, you didn't expect it to be me?" Peng Yuxian seemed to be able to read minds, voicing her surprise.

"I didn't expect it," Geng Miaowan didn't deny that she had been seen through. She took a few steps back until she felt that the distance was safe enough before stopping. However, she didn't relax at all when she looked at him. "I didn't expect that the boss of the prestigious Arans Bioengineering Co., Ltd. would do such a thing to a woman as weak as me."

During the day, she and Xu Ruwen had already figured out the relationship between Qiu Pi and Peng Yuxian. It turned out that Qiu Pi had been employed by Arans Bioengineering Co., Ltd. a few years ago, hired by the company's boss, who was also Peng Yuxian's father. Two years ago, his father passed away, and Qiu Pi was supposed to inherit the business. However, because he was incompetent and not favored by the other bosses, and because Qiu Pi possessed top-secret research results that were extremely valuable to the company, and also had excellent management skills, the bosses elected him as the acting boss. This was until Peng Yuxian suddenly had an epiphany and got on the right track.

Although Qiu Pi was only an acting director of the company, he had expanded the company's scale more than doubled in the past two years, making it a major enterprise of national importance. Therefore, he was highly supported by the company's directors and had absolute say in the company. In contrast, Peng Yuxian was somewhat lacking.

Not only is he incompetent, but he's also unpopular. All he does all day is eat, drink, and have fun, doing absolutely nothing. Thinking of this, Geng Miaowan couldn't help but feel sorry for the old chairman. If he knew in the afterlife that his company had been taken over by an outsider, he would probably be so angry that he would come back to life and die again.

However, Qiu Pi dared not touch Peng Yuxian despite his appearance, which shows that he was not as simple as he seemed on the surface.

"Hehe..." It was that pleasant low laugh again, but the playful look at the corner of his mouth made people's teeth itch. "You? You can't even kill a chicken?" His eyes clearly showed disbelief, as if she was just joking.

If he hadn't dodged that slap quickly, his face would have swelled up like a bun, and he wouldn't have been able to lift a finger.

"Of course!" Geng Miaowan admitted without blushing or panting.

Peng Yuxian stared intently at her with his exceptionally beautiful eyes, as if he were looking at a rare treasure. However, Geng Miaowan didn't care at all about the way he looked at her; she just wanted to know why he had invited her here.

Seeing that he was just staring at her without any intention of speaking, she rolled her eyes helplessly. "Speak, what is your purpose in calling me here in the middle of the night?"

"Purpose?" Peng Yuxian leaned back, lounging lazily on the sofa. This action temporarily relieved Geng Miaowan, as it was a move unlikely to launch a sudden, rapid attack. "What purpose do you think a man could have in inviting a woman to a hotel in the middle of the night?"

Instead of answering, he asked a question, his face displaying an ambiguous smile that could infuriate Geng Miaowan, along with a faint disdain. He looked at her as if she were a woman someone could play with at will. (To be continued.)
