My Possessive Boss Is Unexpectedly Needy - Chapter 13
Chapter 13
Here is the English translation of the text:
Lu Yeyan spoke coldly, “Is that so?”
Yu Zining squeezed out a strained smile. “Of… of course.”
“Hmph. Then, what is this?”
As he spoke, Lu Yeyan suddenly leaned down and bit hard into the mark on Yu Zining’s neck. Zining’s brow furrowed sharply, feeling blood seep from the wound.
Zining’s hands gripped the bedsheets beneath him. Lu Yeyan was like a predator, refusing to allow any scent other than his own to remain on Yu Zining’s body.
Tears welled up in Yu Zining’s eyes. “What exactly do you want?!”
Lu Yeyan looked down at the trembling Yu Zining. His long fingers gently traced Zining’s cheek before sliding down to rest on his smooth, soft lips.
Lu Yeyan spoke slowly, “You are mine.”
Yu Zining did not resist. For a man like Lu Yeyan, no resistance meant less pain. Eventually, drenched in sweat, Yu Zining drifted into a heavy sleep beside him.

At the Ou Group
It seemed that YIY’s new product had dealt them a massive blow in the market. Everyone was working overtime, scrambling to brainstorm alternative marketing strategies.
Inside the General Manager’s office, a woman was brought in.
“How did it go?”
He Yilun stood with his back to her, looking out the floor-to-ceiling window at the glittering lights of the city. The woman was one of the maids Gu Yuan had previously dismissed.
She bowed her head and replied, “I’ve already spread the word inside Lu Yeyan’s villa. The new ‘Madam’ knows everything. Now that I’ve been kicked out… what about what you promised me?”
The woman looked up tremulously at his tall silhouette.
He Yilun simply waved his hand. His secretary, receiving the signal, said to the woman, “Follow me. I’ll write you a check.”
The woman beamed and bowed repeatedly in gratitude. “Thank you, President He!”
Once the woman was led out, He Yilun was left alone. He slowly turned around, a wicked smile spreading across his face. “Lu Yeyan, oh Lu Yeyan… there is no such thing as a secret. The taste of your own backyard catching fire can’t be pleasant, can it?”
His eyes darkened. This was only the beginning. In this bloodless war, it was kill or be killed.
…
The Next Morning
Morning seemed to arrive all too quickly. Yu Zining slowly opened his eyes, only to widen them in shock at the sight before him.
Lu Yeyan hadn’t left yet. He was propping his head up on his hand, watching Zining.
Being so exposed to each other made Yu Zining’s cheeks flush a deep red. He tried to turn away, but as soon as he moved, a wave of soreness hit him. His waist felt as though it were about to fall apart.
Yu Zining cursed him silently: Lu Yeyan is truly a beast. Not a shred of gentleness, only caring about his own pleasure.
Watching Yu Zining’s reaction, Lu Yeyan smirked. “You actually look better in men’s clothes.”
Yu Zining froze, only then realizing that his previous disguises had been torn to shreds and discarded on the floor. He let out a sigh, and remaining with his back to Lu Yeyan, he said, “So what? Am I even allowed to go out looking like this?”
Something in those words must have triggered Lu Yeyan. His brow tightened, and he forcibly turned Zining’s face toward him. Narrowing his eyes, he asked, “Are you complaining?”
Having spent this time with Lu Yeyan, Yu Zining had learned to read his expressions. This look meant Lu Yeyan was on the verge of an outburst.
Yu Zining forced a smile. “How could I? I’ll be whatever you want me to be.”
Lu Yeyan’s expression relaxed. He let go of Zining’s face with a shove. “If you’re obedient, you won’t suffer. If you aren’t, I have plenty of ways to punish you!”
With that, Lu Yeyan stood up and dressed. He spared one last glance at Yu Zining on the bed, let out a huff, and walked out of the bedroom.
Yu Zining was stunned. What is this? He just puts on his pants and leaves? It made him feel like a common escort. He slowly propped himself up, looking at the marks Lu Yeyan had left as “punishment,” and cursed him again in his head.
Yu Zining dressed and reapplied his feminine disguise. Looking at the “woman” in the mirror, he felt a momentary sense of disorientation. Shaking his head, he turned and walked out of the room.
…
Lu Yeyan was already at the dining table, reviewing documents brought by Shen Ziqi.
“Madam!”
Shen Ziqi greeted him as he came downstairs. When she noticed the crimson marks on his neck, she hid a secret smile.
Yu Zining shot a glare at Lu Yeyan. He sat beside him, opened his mouth as if to say something, but ultimately lowered his head and began eating his bread in silence.
“Say what’s on your mind,” Lu Yeyan said without looking up. “Everyone in this villa has been replaced with people I trust.”
Yu Zining lowered his eyes. “If you need me to wear the new designs for events, just let me know.”
Lu Yeyan’s eyes flickered with surprise. It seemed Yu Zining knew. However, he didn’t offer a detailed explanation, simply saying, “Fine.”
This left a bitter taste in Yu Zining’s mouth. If only Lu Yeyan had offered even a small explanation, perhaps he wouldn’t feel this miserable.
After breakfast, Lu Yeyan prepared to leave, but not before reminding Gu Yuan that Yu Zining was not allowed to leave the house and any urgent matters must be reported immediately.
Yu Zining let out a cold, hollow laugh. Again. He felt like a caged pet. Even though he no longer had the intention to run, why was Lu Yeyan still so guarded?
He returned to his room in frustration. Fortunately, Lu Yeyan hadn’t confiscated his phone. He took it out and scrolled through the news. Reporters were still writing nonsensical articles about his wedding; some even claimed he was the daughter of a reclusive billionaire. Yu Zining smiled at the absurdity of it.
Just then, he received a text message:
Dear “Lemon who loves fish,” your composition “Lemon is the Fish’s Love” has been successfully accepted by R Company. Please come to the office to discuss the details. Valid for three days.
This was a song Yu Zining had written long ago and submitted to R Company’s talent inbox on a whim. He hadn’t expected it to actually be accepted.
He felt a wave of relief and joy, followed quickly by crushing disappointment. He was under house arrest in this massive villa. Given his current identity, if Lu Yeyan found out, it would lead to yet another complicated explanation.
After a long internal struggle, he dialed the number for R Company.
“Hello?” “Hello! R Company, how can I help you?” “I’m ‘Lemon who loves fish.’ I saw my song was accepted, but I have things to take care of and won’t be in H City for a few days. Can we discuss the details over the phone?”
…
Yu Zining’s secret talent is finally being recognized! Would you like me to continue with the next part of his conversation with R Company?
