The man chuckled slightly before saying, "You know I am the only one who can protect him. I am willing to put my entire career on the line to do so. Just let me watch him from the shadows and savor his images in private."
Zi Xingxi showed a smile that wasn't exactly a smile before asking, "So if my husband was alive right now would you still be this adamant? Would you still be clamoring over my son?"
Prime minister Ikeda didn't respond immediately as though thinking it through carefully. After a while, he finally said, "I wouldn't. He is a married man after all... I would still pursue your son."
Zi Xingxi wasn't happy either way. She just wanted this man to leave his family alone but apparently, that was only wishful thinking.
"You yourself are a married man. Are you fuckin crazy?" asked Zi Xingxi her patience wearing thin. In fact, she was only tolerating his bullshit because she was tipsy. Alcohol mellowed her down significantly.
