Platinum Sky Condominium.
The punching bag snapped off its chains and went tumbling and rolling on the floor. A flood of sand, grains and small pieces of cloth burst out of it and made a big mess on the gym floor.
Lu Zihao straightened from his fighting position. He already decimated his third punching bag since he started working out this afternoon. The gym was littered with debris.
Volatile energy filled him and made him feel restless again. It was a combination of sexual frustration because of damn Miss Prim and Proper Long Jinjing for occupying his mind so much that he couldn’t properly fuck other women anymore, and also irritation at his younger sister after talking to her on the phone earlier today.
His sister wasn’t happy about Jin Liwei giving Bacon permission to work for him. He was able to glean from his subordinates stationed at Dragon Palace Home #10 that the couple fought again the next day after Bacon introduced himself to him. His subordinates didn’t know what the couple was fighting about but he could figure it out. His sister didn’t want to expose her second AI child to his work in Shadow Winds.
Lu Zihao already expected that she would retract Bacon’s offer to work for him but surprisingly, she didn’t. Instead, she used it as leverage to blackmail him to talk to them in person.
“Big Brother, if you agree to talk to Liwei and I in person, I’ll allow Bacon to assist you in your work,” she told him during the phone call. “And by talk, I mean that you also have to talk. I don’t want you refusing to say a word or storming out. If you agree to my request, then I’ll even optimize Bacon’s system to become more effective when he helps you and Shadow Winds.”
He hadn’t given her an answer yet and only told her that he would think about it first. She knew that he didn’t want to see Jin Liwei in person yet because of the remnant inside him. And most importantly, he didn’t want to reveal their past identities as members of the Vetrovs to others, even to Jin Liwei. He didn’t trust anyone except her.
Now, however, he was seriously doubting if he should continue trusting his own sister. It seemed that her full loyalty was now solely for her man.

Lu Zihao was pissed off during the entire phone call with his sister. He almost raged at her but remembered that she was pregnant. His subordinates at Dragon Palace Home #10 informed him that her emotional fluctuations recently had become quite extreme. Literally anything might set her off.
Thus, even if he wanted to give her a piece of his mind, he restrained himself. Her current body was weak and fragile. In addition to her pregnancy, she wasn’t in the healthiest state right now. He was livid when he learned that she fainted at the TV awards ceremony.
He almost called Jin Liwei to tell him to lock her up in their home so that she would be safe and sound until she gave birth. If he did that, however, the remnant might act up again upon speaking with Jin Liwei. Not to mention that his sister would most likely declare war against him and Jin Liwei for being such “overprotective cavemen” as she had called them before.
She might even run away and give birth to her twin babies in a secret location just to make her point. He wouldn’t put it past her to do that. She had always been stubborn and strong-headed. Even their mother, the formidable Madam Vetrova, was unable to change her mind. Their mother’s constant threats certainly didn’t work on his sister into making her join the family business.
Although he was pissed off at her for blackmailing him using her AI child which she knew that he desperately wanted, he controlled his temper.
First, he didn’t want to endanger her health by agitating her. There was no way that he would be able to forgive himself if he somehow caused her to miscarry or something dangerous like that.
Second, she might completely refuse to allow Bacon to assist him in his work if he fought with her. He really needed an advanced AI like Bacon. It would take his group, Shadow Winds, to new heights and also increase the speed and efficiency of his investigations on the Vetrov annihilation.
Lu Zihao kicked the destroyed punching bag on the floor. He already ran out of spares in this penthouse. None of his subordinates were also in sight to spar with him. They already ran away to their group’s hide-out in the lower level of this condo building.
The restlessness didn’t decrease at all during his workout. It felt like something was itching all over inside his body and he had no idea how to make himself feel better.
Usually, he would relieve this kind of restlessness through training, fighting and fucking. Yet training and fighting were proving to be no longer sufficient. That left the last option—fucking.
The problem was that his dick only wanted one woman right now and wouldn’t get hard for other women anymore. This was completely unacceptable to him!
Long Jinjing was only a one-night stand. Propositioning to her was a big mistake, especially since she was a close friend of his sister and the blood sibling of Evelinka’s current body. Getting involved with someone so close to home would be pure folly on his part. He shouldn’t touch her again. Ever.
However, his dick’s needs were a completely different matter and didn’t care about his opinions at all. If this continued and he was unable to have sex with other women, then he might as well declare himself a monk.
Nikolai Vetrov, a monk?
How laughable!
If his enemies were to learn about this, they wouldn’t need to kill him off anymore. He would die from pure embarrassment alone.
Disgusted at his current pathetic state, he took a quick shower before driving off to a certain direction. He would resolve this pathetic issue once and for all.
