Border Prisoner: The Mad Boss Seduces Her Every Night

Shi Luyu has been busy preparing for the upcoming release of her documentary these past two days, and her sleep time has been compressed to the limit.

Editing videos during the day, revising subtitles at night, and also going over poster copy with team members. Messages kept popping up on my phone, my computer screen was on from morning till night, and I barely ate anything before getting back to work.

That afternoon, she had just exported a trailer when the doorbell rang.

Shi Luyu rubbed her sore eyes, thinking it was takeout, and ran to open the door.

As it turned out, Xu Yuanjia's assistant was standing outside the door.

The man, impeccably dressed in a suit, carried an exquisite cake box, his demeanor gentle and respectful. "Miss Shi, this was sent by Mr. Xu."

Shi Luyu was taken aback: "For me?"

The assistant smiled and said, "Yes. Mr. Xu said you've been busy these past few days, so remember to eat something sweet."

Shi Luyu took the cake box. The box was beautiful, with an ivory white background, a light pink ribbon, and a small rabbit ear metal clasp on top. Her heart softened for some reason, and she looked down at it several times.

She sent Xu Yuanjia a message:

Brother, you brought me a cake?

Xu Yuanjia replied quickly:

【Um】

Two seconds later, another message came slowly:

No matter how busy you are at work, you must not starve to death.

Shi Luyu couldn't help but laugh. She sat back down at the table, placed the cake next to the computer, took a picture, and posted it on social media.

In the photo, the cake box is exquisite and beautiful, next to which is her messy editing timeline and a nearly finished iced Americano.

She captioned the post: "[Documentary release countdown, received some donations, life extended successfully.]"

After posting, she thought for a moment and then, feeling a little embarrassed, tagged Xu Yuanjia's account.

Xu Yuanjia saw it very quickly.

He was sitting in the car at the time, and Zhou Ji was reporting from the passenger seat, "Sir, the people on the northern front have already..."

Before he could finish speaking, the man in the back seat suddenly looked down at his phone, a slow smile curving his lips.

Zhou Ji's voice trailed off.

The atmosphere in the carriage was quiet for a second.

Xu Yuanjia stared at the post, his expression still lazy, but the pleasure in his eyes was undisguised.

He casually gave it a like, but then felt it wasn't enough and went back to watch it twice more.

Zhou Ji tentatively asked, "Master?"

Xu Yuanjia put away his phone and said calmly, "Continue."

Zhou Ji: "..."

You should probably hide that smug look on your face a little.

……

Shi Luyu originally planned to eat the cake after finishing the subtitles.

Suddenly, the project team sent a new request in the group chat: to change the order of the end credits and to add two translated interview segments. She edited and researched at the same time, barely eating any dinner.

She left the cake on the kitchen table, from evening until night, and then from night until the next day.

It's incredibly hot in Taimai. The air conditioning in the small apartment is set quite high, but there's no direct airflow into the kitchen.

When Shi Luyu finally came out of the bathroom the next evening after taking a shower and drying her hair, she suddenly remembered—

Her cake!

"Oh no!" She rushed to the kitchen without even putting on her slippers properly.

The cake box was still safely on the table. Clinging to a sliver of hope, she untied the ribbon and opened the lid.

As soon as the box was opened, a sour and rancid smell wafted out.

Shi Luyu's entire face collapsed.

The cream had collapsed, the fruit had a sour, unfresh smell, the once beautiful decorations were now a mess, and even the bottom of the box was seeping with fermented moisture.

"How did it get ruined..." She squatted by the table, staring at the cake, heartbroken.

This was given to me by Jiajia's brother.

She didn't get a single bite.

Shi Luyu sighed for a long time while holding the box. There was really no other way, so she could only close the box again, carry it downstairs, and throw it into the trash can downstairs in the apartment building.

After throwing it away, he stood by the trash can for two seconds, feeling regretful.

After going upstairs, she felt increasingly guilty and picked up her phone to send a message to Xu Yuanjia.

Brother, I'm sorry. I forgot to put the cake you bought me in the fridge, and it went bad.

[What a pity... I haven't even had a single bite yet, boohoo.]

After sending the message, she held her phone and waited for a reply.

On the other side, Xu Yuanjia was sitting on the terrace by the sea.

A night breeze blew by, and the wine glasses on the table gleamed with a cold light. He was in a good mood tonight.

The necklace was hidden inside the cake.

In his plan, the little rabbit would open the cake, take the first slice, and discover a gift hidden inside. She would probably be stunned at first, then her eyes would light up, her face would turn red, and she would send him a message.

They might even stammer and say, "Brother, why are you wasting money again?"

He had even figured out how he was going to reply.

such as--

"If others have it, my darling must have it too."

For example—

"Wear it for your brother to see."

The phone vibrated at that moment. Xu Yuanjia lowered his eyes, but the corners of his lips were already curving into a smile.

Then, he saw the message on the screen.

The cake went bad because I forgot to put it in the fridge.

[I haven't even tasted a single bite before it's going to be thrown away, boohoo.]

Xu Yuanjia's lips froze.

The wind on the terrace suddenly became very quiet.

He stared at the two lines of text, his gaze gradually darkening.

broken?

Throw it away?

The necklace is still inside.

No one around dared to speak.

After a long pause, Xu Yuanjia typed expressionlessly: 【Nothing】

After a while, he sent a voice message, his tone still lazy and showing no sign of anything amiss: "I'll buy it for you next time."

Hearing his voice, Shi Luyu felt even more guilty and quickly replied:

I'll definitely remember to put it in the fridge next time.

Xu Yuanjia stared at the screen and replied casually: [Good boy/girl]

After sending the message, he got up and walked out.

His subordinate immediately followed up, "Sir, where are you going so late?"

Xu Yuanjia said in a very casual tone: "Taking a walk."

Subordinate: "..."

Why do you look like you're about to kill someone while you're out for a walk?

Shi Luyu was exhausted these past few days. After washing up upstairs, she quickly fell into a deep sleep.

So she never would have imagined—

That night, Xu Yuanjia stood next to the trash can downstairs in her apartment building.

The man, wearing a dark gray short jacket and thin gloves, looked somber as he bent down and opened a garbage bag. The streetlight cast a long shadow of him, starkly contrasting with the overflowing trash can beside him.

He frowned, endured the sour smell, and rummaged through several layers before finally finding the discarded cake box.

There was still a little bit of cream stuck to the outside of the box.

When Xu Yuanjia pulled it out, his face was extremely pale.

The cream smelled sour and rancid, the fruit was fermented, and the smell was so strong it made your forehead tingle.

He squatted under the streetlamp, expressionless, carefully picking apart the spoiled cream and cake base with a small knife. His movements were steady, but the impatience in his eyes grew stronger.

After searching for a long time, the tip of the knife finally touched something hard.

Xu Yuanjia stopped moving.

He brushed aside a clump of sticky cream and plucked the necklace from the cake base.

The pink diamond rabbit ear pendant was covered in jam and cream, and the rose gold chain was also a mess. The once delicate and beautiful little thing now looked as if it had just been pulled out of a garbage dump.

Xu Yuanjia stared at it, a thoughtful look in his eyes.

Half a minute later, he turned around and walked into a nearby Thai late-night food stall.

A few people were still drinking inside. The plastic tables and chairs were greasy, and the fan whirred. A television hung in the corner, showing a local football match, while the owner sat behind the counter, a cigarette dangling from his lips, doing the accounts.

Xu Yuanjia glanced around and noticed a sink in the corner.

He walked over and took the necklace to the tap to rinse it.

Cold water was rinsed over the pendant, washing away the cream and jam little by little, and the pink diamond finally regained a glimmer of light. Xu Yuanjia kept his eyes downcast, his expression still sour, but his movements were much gentler than before.

However, to my surprise, the chain suddenly slipped halfway through the washing process.

"bite."

The necklace slipped from his fingertips and fell directly into the sewer drain along with the water flow.

Xu Yuanjia stopped what he was doing.

The tap was still running, and he looked down at the dark hole, his face finally darkening completely.

After a long time, he reached out and turned off the water.

Just then, the shop owner came over and, seeing him occupying the sink for a long time, spoke in a very rude tone:

"Hey! Have you finished washing? If you're not going to eat, get out of here and block the way!"

The store fell silent instantly.

Several drinkers glanced up, then quickly looked down again, as if instinctively sensing that something was amiss.

Xu Yuanjia slowly raised his eyes, and he smiled.

That smile had absolutely no warmth to it.

The next moment, he drew a gun from his back waist and pressed the muzzle directly against the shop owner's forehead. "What did you just say?"

His lips were still slightly upturned, but there was no smile in his eyes. "I didn't quite hear you."

The shop owner's face turned deathly pale instantly.

The customers in the store screamed, tables and chairs were overturned, bottles rolled all over the floor, and everyone scattered and ran out of the store in alarm.

The boss's legs went weak, and he knelt down with a thud. "I was wrong! I was wrong! I was blind! Please spare my life, sir!"

He slapped himself while crying out:

"I had a foul mouth! I deserve to die! I didn't know you were such an important person! Sir, please have mercy on me!"

Xu Yuanjia ignored him. He took out his phone with one hand and dialed Zhou Ji.

After the call connected, he only uttered three words: "Bring your men here."

Ten minutes later.

Two military vehicles and several black SUVs stopped outside the late-night food stall almost simultaneously.

The car doors opened, and groups of people quickly disembarked. Zhou Ji led his black-clad bodyguards in, while Chai Ye and his fully armed men blocked the street entrance from the other side. The sounds of gun barrels, tactical lights, and heavy military boots instantly filled the small late-night food stall.

The entire street was awakened by the fright, but no one dared to peek out.

The shop owner knelt on the ground, his face as pale as a dead man.

He felt that he was completely finished.

Even if the sky falls tonight, no one can save him.

Zhou Ji entered and said in a deep voice, "Master."

Chai glanced around the scene, his hand already on the gun handle: "Who offended you?"

Xu Yuanjia did not answer.

He somehow acquired a grand chair, sat in the center of the late-night food stall, crossed his long legs, looked gloomy, and tapped the armrest with his fingertips.

Zhou Ji and Chai Ye were both on edge.

They all thought that Tie was going to pull off something big tonight.

As a result, Xu Yuanjia raised his hand and pointed to the sewer where the necklace had just fallen in.

He spoke coldly, enunciating each word clearly:

"Now."

"immediately."

"Take some men down and dig."
