"Come on, bottoms up..." Zheng Shuang lifted her beer glass, speaking heartily.

"Don't get too drunk," Wang Xiaoqiang said as he picked up his glass, clinking it with hers. He had long known that Zheng Shuang was a good drinker, but he still didn't want her to get drunk.

Zheng Shuang downed the liquor in her cup in one gulp. "You're not drunk, how could I be?"

"Then keep drinking..." Wang Xiaoqiang said, "If you get drunk, just sleep over at the factory..."

Zheng Shuang really started to drink heavily. Since Tan Rong was dead and would no longer cause trouble, she felt a surge of relief. As she drank, she got tipsy; her voice grew unsteady. After polishing off a third bottle, she collapsed on the table, unmoving.

Wang Xiaoqiang helped Zheng Shuang to the long sofa in his office and let her lie down. Just as he was about to get up, she suddenly hooked her arm around his neck. "Little Ru, don't go, sleep with Sis..."

"Damn, she's really smashed and mistook me for her sister Zheng Ru..." Wang Xiaoqiang felt embarrassed...

When she pulled him, Wang Xiaoqiang fell over, landing on top of her...

As a result...

The pain brought Zheng Shuang back to her senses, and the drunkenness faded a bit, making her head clear again. Suddenly, she opened her eyes wide, and so did Wang Xiaoqiang, his face flushing red.

They stared at each other for a second, then, like she was electrocuted, Zheng Shuang abruptly pushed Wang Xiaoqiang's body away...

"You, you lecher..." Zheng Shuang scowled at Wang Xiaoqiang.

"Please, you were the one who mistook me for your sister and pulled me over..." Wang Xiaoqiang gasped for breath while trying to explain. Although he had been with two women before, he still found a sense of first love with Zheng Shuang.

Zheng Shuang shook her head, recalling that it did seem like she was pulling her sister. Seeing Wang Xiaoqiang's innocent expression, she also believed him to be innocent,

"Don't want to talk to you anymore, hurry up and take me home..." Zheng Shuang's heart was pounding uncontrollably; she dared not look at Wang Xiaoqiang anymore or talk to him much longer. The way he had bumped into her stimulated her excitement. She felt if she continued talking with him like this, there would be a risk of succumbing.

Wang Xiaoqiang took Zheng Shuang home, then rushed back to the villa. Recently, he had been living this way; the factories had just started up, so there were lots of things to be busy with. Although he had entrusted everything to Zheng Shuang, managing two large factories was too much for her to handle alone. He often needed to assist, especially in terms of personnel management.

So recently, when Wang Xiaoqiang returned to the villa, it was generally late at night. Xia Guifang had already fallen asleep, but today she didn't and was waiting for him in bed. Sometimes she was just too tired and fell asleep as soon as she hit the bed. When Wang Xiaoqiang arrived late and she woke up, he had already gone back to sleep.

She had never taken the initiative; she felt that it was shameful for a woman to do so, fearing that men would look down on her. Sometimes, though, she merely hinted to him.

Upon reaching home, Wang Xiaoqiang took a shower and lay on the bed...

"Hey, Little Qiang, are the breeding farm and the food factory keeping you very busy?" Xia Guifang affectionately rubbed Wang Xiaoqiang's hair.

"The beginning is always the hardest; it's quite busy now, but it'll get easier after a while..." Wang Xiaoqiang replied.

"Isn't Zheng Shuang there? Why are you still so busy?" There was a hint of jealousy in Xia Guifang's tone.

"Both factories are huge; she can't handle it all by herself..." Wang Xiaoqiang heard the tone in Xia Guifang's voice and said, "Little Fang, are you jealous..."

"Pssh, what's there for me to be jealous of? Even if you got together with Zheng Shuang, I wouldn't be jealous... Giggle..."

"My dear wife, you're so magnanimous, your heart is so big..." Wang Xiaoqiang chuckled mischievously.

"Jerk, you've seen it every day, haven't you had enough..." Xia Guifang's heart raced as he stared at her.

..............................

That day, Ichiro Tanimoto of Japan Tanimoto Trading came to Little Farmer Agricultural Products Co., accompanied by a beautiful lady in a kimono. "Mr. Wang, this is my wife, Yoshiko Asou," Tanimoto Ichiro introduced.

"Hello Mr. Wang..." Yoshiko Asou took the initiative to extend her hand to Wang Xiaoqiang.

"Hello, Yoshiko Asou, I'm Wang Xiaoqiang, you can call me Little Qiang..." Wang Xiaoqiang reached out and shook hands with Yoshiko Asou.

Yoshiko Asou assessed Wang Xiaoqiang with her radiant, beautiful eyes, then fixated on him with a seductive smile.

Wang Xiaoqiang, disoriented by her flirtatious smile, was filled with suspicion when he felt a smooth chill transferring from her hand. The chill felt like a snake burrowing into his skin, causing all the hair on his body to stand on end. Instinctively, he channeled Fire Element Spiritual Energy into his right hand to dissipate the cold.

Wang Xiaoqiang was slightly taken aback and became more guarded. At that moment, both the Japanese couple attentively watched Wang Xiaoqiang. Seeing him unharmed, their faces showed surprise and shock.

```

"Let's talk inside the house..." Wang Xiaoqiang tried to take the Japanese couple to the office building.

"No need, the scenery here is so nice; let's just take a walk around here..." Asou Yoshiko suggested.

Wang Xiaoqiang also feared that the couple would try his fruits and vegetables again, which was why he wanted to take them to the office building. He knew very well that those fruits and vegetables were worth dozens of yuan per half kilo—indiscriminate eating could easily cost hundreds.

However, seeing their preference, Wang Xiaoqiang could only stiffly accompany the two outside.

"Mr. Wang, my visit this time is regarding the fruit and vegetable seeds..." Tanimoto Ichiro began.

"Ah, that's right, I forgot to ask, how are my seeds doing? They should have borne fruit by now, right?"

"Yes, they're doing exceptionally well. Mr. Wang, I've come this time to amend the contract, to increase the distribution of seeds by tenfold..." Tanimoto Ichiro not only took the seeds to plant them, but also to develop them. However, once planted, the crops didn't sprout and all rotted away.

This frustrated him, as it meant if he wanted to profit from fruits and vegetables, he had to pay a considerable fee to Wang Xiaoqiang. However, considering the contract's prices, it wasn't high, so he decided to import a large amount of Wang's produce.

"Ah, tenfold is too much; I really can't manage that. You see, my seeds were sold to me by a friend, not developed personally by me. The quantity is extremely limited," said Wang Xiaoqiang.

"Mr. Wang, we can further discuss the price," Tanimoto Ichiro suggesting, fully aware that Wang Xiaoqiang could produce more seeds and that he only aimed to drive the price up.

Suddenly, Tanimoto Ichiro's phone rang. He answered the call and spoke a few words in Japanese, his face showing great anger. He cursed continuously, and after hanging up, he said to Wang Xiaoqiang with a look of apology, "Mr. Wang, I'm truly sorry, but an emergency has come up at the company, and I must rush back to Japan.

I promise to return within three days, and then we can continue discussing our partnership..."

"No problem," Wang Xiaoqiang replied indifferently.

"Yoshiko, let's go back," Tanimoto Ichiro said to Asou Yoshiko.

"Mr. Tanimoto, I don't want to go back; it's too much hassle. I'm afraid my illness won't stand another trip. You can go back alone," Asou Yoshiko frowned deeply.

"But staying here... will cause trouble for Mr. Wang..." Tanimoto Ichiro said uneasily, looking towards Wang Xiaoqiang.

"Ah, if you don't mind, you are welcome to stay..." offered Wang Xiaoqiang.

Upon hearing this, Tanimoto Ichiro showed a thrilled expression, "Thank you very much, Mr. Wang..."

After Tanimoto Ichiro left, Wang Xiaoqiang and Asou Yoshiko exchanged a glance, and he hurriedly departed.

Once Tanimoto Ichiro had gone, Asou Yoshiko directly latched onto Wang Xiaoqiang's arm. "Mr. Wang, I'm a bit tired; could you take me to rest for a bit..."

Wang Xiaoqiang distinctly felt the chilling sensation coming from Asou Yoshiko's arm, incessantly invading his skin and causing his flesh to creep. However, it was quickly dissolved by the Fire Element Spiritual Energy within him.

"No problem, please..." Wang Xiaoqiang sneered. How could he not see that the Japanese couple was plotting something? The chilling energy emanating from the woman was extremely odd.

He was not very knowledgeable in Metaphysics, knowing just the correspondences of the Five Elements and a bit about the superficial aspects of Yin and Yang. He understood that the chilling energy had been dispelled by his Fire Element Spiritual Energy, but he was unaware of the nature of this serpentine chilling energy. Could it be that she, too, harbored Spiritual Energy?

This conclusion seemed unlikely. Had the chilling energy been Binding Spirit Qi, his Fire Element Spiritual Energy would not have dispelled it so easily.

While Wang Xiaoqiang guarded himself mentally, he also wanted to understand what exactly was going on.

He led Asou Yoshiko into the villa.

"Mr. Wang, it was a bit hot when we arrived; I'd like to take a bath..." In the villa, the Japanese woman, seeing that Wang Xiaoqiang was still unharmed, marveled inwardly and then suggested a bath.

"No problem at all, I'll run the bath for you." Wang Xiaoqiang went to the bathroom to run the water for her.

When he came out, he found Asou Yoshiko had already stripped off her outer clothes, leaving only her bikini, her voluptuous and fair skin looking as though it had been soaked in milk. This gave Wang Xiaoqiang palpitations, and he quickly averted his gaze, murmuring, "Japanese women sure are bold..."

"Haha, that's because you're too conservative, Mr. Wang..." Asou Yoshiko flashed Wang Xiaoqiang a flirtatious smile, making his head spin again.

Sitting on the living room couch, Wang Xiaoqiang mulled over the chilling energy from the Japanese woman's body and guessed what Asou Yoshiko might do next. He soon surmised that she would likely attempt a Beauty Trap, making skin-to-skin contact with him...

Thinking this, Wang Xiaoqiang felt a chill down his spine; he could imagine that the woman's body would be as cold as her hand and arm, like a snake, chilling and insidiously wrapping around him, transferring the chilling energy into his body.

In the midst of Wang Xiaoqiang's speculations, Asou Yoshiko, having bathed, emerged still wearing her bikini.
