Clearing those thoughts he continued eating his porridge. It didn't take long to finish since it wasn't good to eat too much in the morning. Taking the bowl and his spoon he went towards the sink to clean everything. "Old Fu if Wei comes around please tell him I'm doing a morning workout. Thank you." He grabbed a chilled water bottle and slipped his phone into his jacket before heading outside. A plus point to Zhuang Wei's house was that there was a fully functional home gym and a huge backyard to jog around. 

Taking a quick glance around the yard he saw the stationary guards silently keeping watch over the area. There was always 24/7 protection around house. With a quick nod at the ones nearby Xi Long began a light jog around the backyard. After one simple jog he started adding in stretches and knee lifts to loosen up his body. He did them in rotations for 10 laps before taking a short break. There was sweat starting to seep through his clothes. Pulling his water bottle out from the sleeve attachment he took short sips to quell this thirst. There was part of him that wanted to chug but he knew that would only make someone vomit with more exercise.  He was about to head inside to the home gym when he felt his phone vibrate. Pulling out his phone he saw a short text message from Shufen. 

"Ready, waiting for command." A slight thrill went through him. It was really good having such a capable secretary. After this was all over he should give him a bonus. Sending a quick acknowledgement he slipped his phone back into his pocket. There was no rush, he would wait for the perfect time for his plans to start. The longer they waited the more c.o.c.ky the prey will become and the more mistakes they will do. It really was beneath him to get involved with such a petty family but it would serve as a warning for the others who plotted with women. When he had first started establishing his roots a lot of the higher ups tried to 'control' him and send women into his bed. After he had rejected them and had them thrown out they tried drugging him. It never worked since he never touched a drink that he or someone he trusted didn't pour. Then when they saw his reaction they even tried sending men! If they had to send men it would have been better if they tried to put into Wei's bed, at least it was the right s.e.x.u.a.lity. Not that people from both genders didn't try to get into Wei's bed.....but it was hilarious that they immediately thought he was gay. It didn't take long before they all just realized that he kept everyone at a distance and rarely made such cheap moves. Now that the Su family had dared to scheme this way he could only match their energy and give a fitting reply. 

"What are you smirking about?" Hearing Wei's voice behind him he turned around to see him in similar workout wear. 

"You know what they say speak of evil and it will appear. Such great timing."

"You....you are bent on raising my blood pressure aren't you?!! So unlovable." 

"Well you appeared just as I thought of you so you'll live for 100 years might as well raise your blood pressure with that guarantee." 

".....I really have no idea why I hang around you." 

"Its a two way question really, now shut up and stretch. I want to continue my workout." 

"Only if you tell me why you were smirking."

"And only if you hurry with your warm up." There was a short glare between them before Zhuang Wei left to do his runs. These workouts were their normal routine so even if he hadn't pushed him Wei would have done it. He had skipped recently on the days he spent with his kitten but the several ambushes they had kept him active. Still, his body that was used to certain workouts was aching for one now. It took 10 minutes for Wei to finish his runs and make his way back to him. Throwing his water bottle at him he let him drink as he gave the update.  

"I was smirking at the Su family. As soon as their daughter was dropped at the door they immediately took her inside. It was quiet for a bit before some people sneaked out to meet others. Its a pity that all their efforts will be for naught." A cool gleam was in his eyes as he headed towards the home gym. Glancing at the time he realized it had been 35 minutes since he had woke up. If they followed through on weight training it would be just enough time before he lets the storm go. Taking out his phone he texted two words to Shufen "go 30" and put his phone back away. He didn't like to use too many words when he texted since they were so easy to intercept. Even if he had extra protective measures on the phone he could never be too sure. There was never anything saved on his phone past basic contacts and his text messages were deleted after 48 hours. 

Clearing his mind he spent the next 30 minutes going through the motions. It went by quickly aa both of them worked out in a comfortable silence. There was a tacit agreement to spot each other and their coordination was easy after years of practice. The dull ache in his body was reassuring and right on cue as he finished his last set there was a vibration from his phone. Picking it up he saw a short "G" which stood for "everything was good" in response. At the same time there was a Weibo post made on a small account "some family's truly don't have shame. Bah so disgusted!" There was little impact but they made another follow up post "I really don't know how the XX family continues to act like this, black heart. I wish I could spill their secrets." This post slowly started gaining traction when people commented under asking questions. 

"And so it starts..." Xi Long whispered.
