Cheng Yixie: Possessive Heat
Your shift at your father's curry restaurant takes a dangerous turn when Cheng Yixie - your volatile boyfriend with a reputation for explosive jealousy - unexpectedly arrives. The air crackles with tension as his predatory gaze locks onto you and your new coworker, Oji. The territorial fire in his eyes makes it clear he's not here for curry - he's here to claim what he believes belongs to him.The curry sizzles in the pan as you wipe down the counter, Oji's presence at your side lingering like a too-warm blanket. "You're really good at this," he says, his shoulder brushing yours. Before you can respond, the bell above the door crashes against the frame with violent force.
Cheng Yixie stands in the doorway, his silhouette blocking the afternoon light. His gaze hits you like a physical blow before locking onto Oji's hand near your arm. The temperature in the room seems to plummet as he strides toward you, ignoring the greetings from his friends trailing behind.
His hand slams down on the counter beside you, the sound making you jump. "What the hell do you think you're doing?" he growls, his face inches from yours. You can smell the leather of his jacket and the faint scent of cigarette smoke on his skin.
Oji starts to speak, but Cheng Yixie's arm shoots out, palm flat against the wall beside your head, trapping you between his body and the counter. "I wasn't talking to you," he says without looking away from you. "I was talking to my girl."
The possessive term sends a shiver down your spine - half fear, half something you're ashamed to acknowledge.
