Involuntary Symbiosis Chapter 10
byYou Look Well
Wang Ling went to work the next day. Because of the full day of intimacy the day before, his body was saturated with the smell of absinthe. He applied three blocker patches. He looked at his nape, which had been bitten beyond recognition by a certain someone. If his colleagues saw it, they would surely start gossiping again.
As soon as Chen Yusu saw Wang Ling that morning, she teased, “You look well, Secretary Wang.” Indeed, he looked excellent. Wang Ling usually appeared frail and fragile, unlike now, when he was full of vitality and his face held a healthy flush.
“Yes,” Wang Ling replied. “I was given a sufficient amount of Pheromones.”
Chen Yusu listened, then let out a long, drawn-out “Oh~ I understand, I get it. I wish you two everlasting happiness.”
Wang Ling heard her. Wishing him and Fu Yaren everlasting happiness felt like a curse, but given the current situation, it was practically a reality.
He had been Marked for life, meaning he would be bound to Fu Yaren forever.
“Thank you,” Wang Ling responded to Chen Yusu, then returned to his workstation.
In the office, Xu Tongxiao was reviewing recent market trends. He asked Nan Ningyue, “Internet coverage is very wide. Have you considered collaborating with the internet for drug sales?” Nan Ningyue listened and asked, “How so?”
“It’s just an idea right now,” Xu Tongxiao admitted honestly. “I’m thinking of setting up sales points for pharmaceuticals on popular internet apps, eliminating the costs of middlemen in other sales channels, such as for inhibitors. This way, we can directly set platform prices and promote widespread accessibility.”
“That is indeed a good idea. Our market share is already substantial, and the main goal is to be convenient for the public. We can increase the proportion of online sales,” Nan Ningyue mused. He asked, “I see that the largest internet players are Interlink and You Have Related.”
“We can discuss this in a meeting later,” Nan Ningyue nodded. He messaged Du Jia, asking for the schedule and instructing him to send it to Secretary Wang. They would discuss it in the meeting, and if the resolution was unanimously agreed upon, Wang Ling should arrange a time to meet with the directors of those two companies.
Lian Chengde, the president of Interlink, had gotten married recently, and both he and Xu Tongxiao were invited to the wedding. To be honest, it was quite a blunder, everything was unexpected, but it turned out to be quite successful in the end.
“What is it?” Xu Tongxiao asked. Nan Ningyue’s lips curved slightly upward: “Do you remember the Interlink president’s wedding?” Xu Tongxiao also chuckled softly. He said, “When we got married, you used a PowerPoint presentation to show the process of how we fell in love. Did you know someone fell asleep? And the template was one of those old, outdated ones.”
“The thing is, I couldn’t find a wedding template, and I didn’t buy one either.” Nan Ningyue’s PowerPoint skills were genuinely poor. He sounded a bit disappointed, saying, “I really tried my best to design it.”
“Who uses PowerPoint for a wedding?” Xu Tongxiao smiled. He always found his senior endearing. He couldn’t resist kissing Nan Ningyue, who leaned on Xu Tongxiao’s shoulder and said, “Fine.”
“But you only put people to sleep with a PowerPoint. President Lian’s wedding, every part of it was spectacular.” Xu Tongxiao recalled how Lian Chengde had disregarded the ceremony flow and directly embraced his lover, his eyes fixed on him. Later, when introducing their love story, his lover mentioned that President Lian had pulled him into a relationship during his rut. Looking at President Lian’s lover, he clearly looked like an innocent, good-natured young man, a bit naive even. It was hard not to question President Lian’s character. The scene was initially silent, and then the situation became somewhat uncontrollable.
However, his lover managed to take control of the situation afterward.
Nan Ningyue smiled. He said, “President Lian married a very lovable beta and is living very happily.” Xu Tongxiao kissed his hair, his words carrying a hint of playful blame and affection: “I also married a very lovable alpha. Why don’t you bless me?”
“Alright, we will be happy forever,” Nan Ningyue looked at Xu Tongxiao, shifted his body, and kissed him on the cheek, asking, “Are you happy?” Xu Tongxiao’s gland was very close to Nan Ningyue. Nan Ningyue clearly smelled Xu Tongxiao’s unique ginger Pheromones, a stable, gentle, and lingering sensation. He felt very fulfilled inside. He knew Xu Tongxiao was very happy and content, and Xu Tongxiao confirmed this: “I am extremely happy.”
