After the auction, Zee really came down with a cold.

Poppy had a face that said “you see, sure enough”.

He had nothing to say, swallowing the water and medicine with a tilt of his in the end. The back of his head was heavy, the neat text on the screen was like a garbled code in his eyes, Zee rubbed the cartilage of his nose, his nasal cavity immediately relaxed. “Give me a cup of coffee, make it thick.”

Poppy refused: “You have taken medicine, you can’t drink coffee, you can rest for a while before working.”

Zee was about to retort but remembered that he could not out-talk Poppy on such matters, so he stood up and headed for the lounge: “Have you booked a private room at the restaurant?”

“Don’t worry, President Zee, I have already booked Ting Song Yuan for tonight five days ago.”

“Wake me up in twenty minutes.” The exhaustion from the cold and the cold medicine made him quickly fall into a dream, which was chaotic and illogical, yet the dreamer could not perceive anything wrong, so Zee dreamed that he was clearly in the dark, but he could see Nunew’s face close at hand. He was approaching himself and he was embraced by him, and then everything became indescribable, and the dream ended with Nunew leaning in his arms with his round belly and asking him: “Zee, what would be a good name for our baby?” Zee jerked open his eyes and sat up gasping.

Poppy, who was about to wake him up, was taken aback: “You had a nightmare?”

“……Hm.” This is indeed a nightmare for him but his body had a physical reaction in the dream, Zee’s forehead veins jumped, asking Poppy to go out first.

Poppy hadn’t noticed yet: “It’s true that it’s easier to have nightmares after taking medicine, you should rest for a while more.”

He attributed his reaction to the fact that he hadn’t been relieved for too long, which is why he had such a deviant dream.

He breathed deeply and focused his mind on work-related matters before suppressing his desire.

He had to meet a client in the evening, Zee arrived at the Yue Lai Restaurant early. Upon entering, he heard a familiar voice, the man’s back was to him and the manager was explaining something. “Mr. Nunew, Ting Song Yuan has really been booked, do you want to see others?”

Ting Song Yuan is the best private room in the whole of the restaurant and Nunew didn’t want to give it up: “Then tell me who it is, and I’ll go and talk to him.”

The manager was in a difficult position: “Sorry, we can’t disclose this.”

"Can’t I add money?" Nunew was provoked to rebellion.

The manager smiled bitterly and suddenly saw Zee: “This……”

“Sure, add money is it, how much does Young Master Zee want to add?” Zee looked at a grateful manager and waved his hand.

Today, he just happened to be wearing the cufflinks snatched from Nunew at the auction that day, such an action fell into the eyes of Nunew.

In his opinion, Zee  is deliberately provoking him, not only can I snatch the cufflinks you want, I can also book the private room you want before you do, you don’t like me but you can’t do anything about it.

Nunew was so angry that his head was on fire, he smiled and clasped his arms: “What a coincidence ah, President Zee.”

Zee suddenly remembered the dream he had today. In the dream he could not see Nunew’s face clearly, but he knew in his heart that it was different from Nunew’s smile now, it was shy and sincere. His throat rolled and stopped himself from thinking in time: “Hmm, it is very coincidental.” His voice was hoarse.

Nunew smiled even wider as he heard his thick nasal voice: “Has President Zee caught a cold? Last time at the auction, President Zee was still alive and kicking, how come he is sick today, it can’t be retribution, huh?” Who asked you to snatch what I had my eyes on, you deserve it!

Zee put his hands in his pockets indifferently: “The weather has changed suddenly recently, Young Master Nunew should also be careful, Omegas seem to be a bit worse than Alphas in physique.”

“Thank you, I just need to stay away from you. Since President Zee is so sick, why don’t you go home and rest, why are you still coming here for a meal. How about you let me have Ting Song Yuan, I’ll give President Zee another 10,000.”

“100,000.”

“Why don’t you go rob!” Nunew’s face changed and he wanted to jump up and pull his hair, 100,000 again, last time he lost to 100,000 for the cufflinks, this time it’s 100,000 again!

Zee fiddled with his cufflinks in a breezy manner, Nunew looked until anger was spewing out of his eyes. “Since Young Master Nunew can’t take out so much sincerity, there is nothing I can do, I’m leaving.”

Can’t take it out? How dare he say I can’t take it out? Nunew’s hands were shaking with anger, a mere 100,000, how could he not be able to take it out! “Deal!”

Zee’s half-raised foot fell back to the ground, looking at Nunew with a smile, “Since Young Master Nunew is so sincere, I have to painfully give up my love. Manager Zhou, take Young Master Nunew to Ting Song Yuan, put 100,000 into my account."

Nunew knew he had fallen for his trap but at this time, he had to go on. He finally gritted his teeth and disgusted Zee: “Our relationship is as such, why don't you address me faraway wanderer?"

The manager was in a cold sweat, Zee’s face stiffened.

Nunew then turned around and walked away. He didn’t know what location Zee changed to afterwards but when Nunew was about to leave, Manager Zhou suddenly handed him a velvet box: “President Zee said this is a giveaway for you.”

“What kind of giveaway?” Puzzled, he opened the box and inside, the familiar pair of emerald cufflinks was lying quietly.
