A research genius, indifferent mad dog gong and a highly influential and stunning beauty shou

At his older brother’s funeral, Xie Hou encountered the male “widow.”

On a silent, rainy night, Shen Cizhu was surrounded by a group of dignitaries and led into the cemetery. He stopped in front of Xie Hou, lifting his umbrella, revealing the green eyes deeply etched in Xie Hou’s memory.

It seemed like he had been crying, and his striking beauty had become fragile as a result.

“Condolences,” Xie Hou said in a soft voice.

“Thank you,” Shen Cizhu replied hoarsely.

At the funeral, they pretended not to know each other, as if the night of their reckless passion had never happened.

After the crowd dispersed, the cemetery was cold.

Xie Hou looked down at Shen Cizhu, who was still kneeling in front of the tombstone. He leaned over, holding Shen Cizhu’s chin to make him look up. “Brother is gone. What will you do now?”

Shen Cizhu suddenly looked up.

“In that case,” Xie Hou, with an appearance of purity and coldness, murmured like an adulterer, “please let me replace Brother and inherit you.”

Shen Cizhu was adored by everyone.

In the eyes of others, Shen Cizhu was a noble son from a top-tier family, appearing compassionate and gentle, like the most sacred apple in the Garden of Eden.

But it was all a façade, and only Xie Hou knew his true nature.

The real Shen Cizhu had a destructive personality. He was gorgeous, arrogant, and greedy, harboring a permanent desire for control and possession over others. He was the most cunning and venomous snake in the Garden of Eden.

A venomous snake would never see itself as cruel; it would only follow its predatory instincts to ensnare its prey with a seductive whisper, and in an instant, its fangs would pierce the prey’s throat.

This predatory game was dangerous and rewarding for Xie Hou.

“My dear, it was clearly me who dragged you into hell, so why do you see me as your savior?”

Hormones can trigger the human instinct to seek a partner, but will your genes accept your partner?

Xie Hou had been conducting this research all along.

However, when everything seemed settled, it all collapsed with the arrival of Shen Cizhu.

He defied the warnings of his genes and fell in love with Shen Cizhu.

But at that time, Shen Cizhu was still his brother’s lover.

[“I will devour all of him with blood and gore, but before that, I beg him to respond to my affection.”]
