The Green Tea Top Failed to Manipulate Him and Had a Meltdown

[Beautiful, Strong, and Tragic Nobleman Bottom x Ruthless, Scheming General Top] - The Pursuit After Losing Her

Yan Wenxi was deeply poisoned and had little time left. Before he died, he took an arrow for Fu Tingzhou, only to find that Fu Tingzhou wasn't grateful.

Yan Wenxi coughed up blood and made the only honest confession of his life, but all he got in return was a look of disgust. "You disgust me."

**

After the new emperor wiped out the Yan faction, he developed debilitating headaches. He died one day and opened his eyes twenty years in the past.

Given a second chance at life, Fu Tingzhou was determined to kill the treacherous minister who had falsely accused the Fu family of rebellion!

Knowing his enemy as well as himself, Fu Tingzhou began putting on a tea-drinking act at every opportunity:

[1]

After Little Marquis Yan saved his life and prepared to go their separate ways,

Fu Tingzhou deliberately made himself fall, then said in a fragile, restrained voice, "It hurts so much."

[2]

When the emperor interrogated Yan Wenxi, demanding to know which man of noble birth he had dared to sleep with,

Fu Tingzhou said softly, "Please don't anger His Majesty on my account, Little Marquis."

[3]

When Little Marquis Yan finally decided to cut off his feelings,

Fu Tingzhou sighed mournfully. "In the end, I'm simply not worthy of you."

He used Yan Wenxi's influence to meet powerful people and took advantage of Yan Wenxi's affection to climb the ranks, without feeling the slightest guilt.

Yan Wenxi loved Fu Tingzhou. When Fu Tingzhou wanted a position in the Longxiang Guard, Yan Wenxi went out of his way to seize it for him. When Fu Tingzhou didn't want their relationship made public, Yan Wenxi alone bore the emperor's fury and was beaten nearly to death.

Until one day, Yan Wenxi realized that every expression of love had been an act of self-abasement, and every moment of intimacy had been part of a scheme. His heart went cold, and at last he came to his senses.

**

Fu Tingzhou had finally wrung every last bit of value from Little Marquis Yan and achieved his goal, leaving the man utterly broken. He should have felt no regrets, yet his heart twisted with pain. He kept telling himself that Yan Wenxi, that treacherous minister, had gotten what he deserved.

Then someone told him it had all been a misunderstanding. Remembering everything he had done, Fu Tingzhou completely lost it.

**

Several years later, Fu Tingzhou returned to the capital after his attempts at emotional manipulation had failed, only to be turned away at Lord Yan's gate. The man who had once smiled at him, cried in his arms, and spent a night with him now looked at him impassively. "Fu Tingzhou, we're even."

General Fu was first disbelieving, then his eyes turned blood red, and he ran around frantically looking for him.

Rumor had it that the invincible General Fu had come down with a strange illness. He was always having nightmares in the middle of the night about losing his wife, and every time it happened, he ran to Lord Yan's residence and shouted, "Let me see you one more time!"

*

Later on.

The realm was at peace, the four seas were calm, and the new emperor ascended the throne. Yet the harem had its very own foremost minister.

Fu Tingzhou didn't know how to treat him better. All he could say was, "How about letting you get even for everything I did to you?"

Yan Wenxi froze, then said, a little embarrassed, "Then... could I be on top just once?"

The new emperor's expression turned inscrutable for a moment. Then he said quietly, "All right."

Seeing the man beside him look delighted, he continued, "Since my beloved minister wants to enjoy the fruits of his own labor, I can't stop him."

The new emperor lay flat and gave up. "Do it yourself."

[Coming Soon] My Doctor Boyfriend Always Wants to Eat Me

In 3303, Earth was invaded by mental pollution. Those infected had a chance of gaining supernatural abilities, while a second independent consciousness appeared inside their bodies. The medical community called it a second personality.

A second personality was often the exact opposite of the primary one, and could manifest physical traits with its own distinct aesthetic, including but not limited to: [wolf fangs that require a bite guard] [cat ears that go into heat if not petted] [a mermaid's legs that turn into foam without true love].

Healing abilities became the world's most important resource. Doctors were licensed to practice anywhere in the world, and the most sought-after specialist was Shen Wangzhen, director of the First Research Institute.

No one knew that Director Shen often felt hungry while performing surgery.

Rumor had it that the Alliance's supreme commander had an exceptionally high mental threshold. When he gained his ability, he wasn't bound by a second personality. This won him countless zealous fans, making him a symbol of humanity's resistance and its hope for survival!

Shen Wangzhen thought so too. For a time, he very much wanted to dissect the commander's brain for medical research, until he received an SSS-rank mission:

> Mission Rank: SSS

> Security Clearance: SSS+

> Mission Details: Use the cover of being the supreme commander's partner to provide him with secret treatment

> Mission Reward: [ ] (P.S. Name your price)

Before long, Director Shen clicked [Accept] and sent in his response.

> Reward Requested: The right to use the supreme commander's body

At the villa, Xue Jinghan sat calmly as he received treatment. But as Shen Wangzhen began operating, he heard the commander sigh from deep within: [What beautiful hands. It'd be a shame not to use them to grab the sheets.]

Shen Wangzhen: ?

Xue Jinghan raised his eyes slightly. His gaze was as clear as pure amber crystal. He asked coldly, "Is something wrong, Director Shen?"

Shen Wangzhen took a deep breath and cut into the commander's scalp.

A voice inside Xue Jinghan softly cried, [Ah.] Then it rasped, [That feels so good!]

Shen Wangzhen: ...He couldn't go on with the surgery.

Blood covered Xue Jinghan's face, but his expression remained detached as his thoughts trembled: [I want to hold those slender, pale legs in the crook of my arm and make him tremble like a little boat capsized by towering waves. I want to grab him by the waist, pin him to the bed, and bind his ankles with silver chains. I want him on his knees, his delicate neck exposed, so I can bite through his skin and taste his blood...]

But the commander didn't know that Director Shen was hungry right now, and wanted to... eat him.

*

Beneath the Alliance was a black market. Rumor had it that its boss possessed the strongest mental power in the world. He had brought the underground market to heel with an iron fist, and every human who had gone berserk and every mental monster begged him for a place to stay.

The boss personally ran a pawnshop where anything could be rented or sold, including part of the boss himself.

As it turned out, the kind and compassionate Director Shen was the black market's boss. By day, he was the supreme commander's pampered little wife. When night fell, he transformed into a man working the streets of the night and randomly lent his abilities to a lucky customer, such as eyes that could see mental pollution, hands that could dissect S+ pollution sources, or blood that made anyone who drank it super aggressive... In return, he got food and kept himself fed.

At midnight, the commander caught his little wife, who should have been in bed, and asked coldly, "Don't you know there's a curfew after ten? Where are you going?"

At the same time, the commander's second personality said: [You think you can escape my grasp, man?]

Shen Wangzhen: "Actually... I work nights."

Xue Jinghan: "."

His second personality grew restless: [Is he hinting at something? What a naughty little kitten!]

*

Later, Shen Wangzhen lay on the commander's chest. He had overworked his mental energy and felt a little tipsy, so he blushed and murmured, "Actually, removing a mental entity doesn't necessarily require brain surgery."

Xue Jinghan raised an elegant, cool brow. "What else, then?"

Shen Wangzhen put down the scalpel, removed the commander's bite guard, and kissed him.
