Drip!

The water in Park Seok-min’s mouth hadn’t even gone down yet before it slipped from the corner of her lips, ruining the mature, steady image she had always maintained, if only a little.

Luckily, no one around her was looking at her. Every single one of them was staring at Leng Shuang in shock.

“Holy crap, I’m not seeing things, right? The guy they were just talking about actually came?!”

“Oh my god, he looks way better than in the photos.”

“Those eyes are way too unfair. If I didn’t know better, I’d think he was flirting with me~”

“Wuwuwu, I’m already wet!”

Everyone was dumbstruck. There even seemed to be... something extra on the floor.

“Ahem!”

Park Seok-min was the first to come back to her senses. She gave a dry cough and snapped the dazed crowd awake.

“Leng Shuang, right?”

“Yes.”

Leng Shuang nodded a little nervously.

When he’d heard outside that this round would be evaluated by this notoriously strict assessor, he’d already felt his luck was terrible. Now that he saw her in person, as someone who had only just entered society, facing such a sharp and commanding woman made him tense up even more.

Park Seok-min opened the computer and checked the information on the next batch sent over by the front desk. Right at the top was Leng Shuang.

“How is this possible?”

The moment she saw Leng Shuang’s data, even someone as cold and capable as Park Seok-min showed a strange expression.

Her almond-shaped eyes kept sweeping over him. Her gaze was so invasive, it almost felt like it would slip through his collar and inspect every inch of him without leaving anything out.

But no matter what, the front desk’s data couldn’t be fake. Leng Shuang had only come in that afternoon to have his physical stats measured. The data had been sent to her immediately after the test. Unlike those who had been measured in the morning and came later for evaluation, there was no chance for fraud at all.

And her own eyes told her the same thing. He really didn’t look prematurely developed. His body proportions were perfect to the extreme, almost exactly like Miss Kazue Iinoue.

It was just that Park Seok-min was too shocked. For the moment, she still wasn’t willing to admit it.

“Team leader, what do we say?”

The others got excited. Their earlier laziness vanished completely. Their eyes were like hungry wolves, as if they wanted to stick themselves to Leng Shuang’s fair, tender skin.

Park Seok-min glanced over the data, then walked toward Leng Shuang.

“Leng Shuang, stand straight. Head up, chest out!”

Her office outfit, paired with black stockings and high heels, highlighted her tall figure while also matching her meticulous work style perfectly.

She strode forward on her long legs. The aura of someone who had fought her way through the workplace surrounded her, putting no small amount of pressure on Leng Shuang.

Leng Shuang didn’t hesitate much. He immediately stood at attention like he had during high school military training, eyes fixed forward.

Park Seok-min stopped in front of him. Since she was a full head taller than him, it wasn’t just the natural pressure she gave off toward a working stiff like him. Her proud, full figure also made sweat slowly bead on Leng Shuang’s forehead as he stared ahead, afraid she might suddenly crush down on him and give him some very physical pressure.

Thankfully, she only paused in front of him for a few seconds, looking him over from above before circling to another angle.

Tap, tap.

The sound of her heels striking the floor was especially clear. It echoed by Leng Shuang’s ears, as if stepping right on his heart. He could clearly sense that she had moved behind him and was now observing him from the back.

And at that moment, Park Seok-min stayed still for quite a while. Who knew what she was examining.

The time actually wasn’t that long, but to Leng Shuang, it felt as long as a century.

He didn’t know why, but a feeling rose in his heart. The way she was sizing him up from behind felt like being watched by a venomous snake, as if it could open its bloody jaws at any second and bite into his neck.

“What’s Team Leader doing?”

“What the hell, Team Leader isn’t into girls, is she? She’s standing so close to him, her chin was almost on the back of his head!”

“Is this really the same cold, capable Team Leader we know? She even looked like she was about to wrap an arm around his waist?!”

Leng Shuang had no idea what Park Seok-min was doing behind him, but the people facing him could see it clearly. Park Seok-min was measuring him from behind as if she were sizing up a piece of equipment.

A very suitable piece of equipment.

“This is way too compatible...”

The office was so quiet you could hear a pin drop. Park Seok-min muttered that under her breath behind Leng Shuang, and he heard it clearly.

For a moment, he didn’t understand. What exactly did she mean by too compatible?

But his thoughts were cut off at once by the crisp sound of her heels hitting the floor again.

This time, Park Seok-min returned to stand in front of him. Looking down at him, she said, “Can you look me in the eyes?”

Her words sounded like a request, but the capable pressure she gave off left Leng Shuang no room to think too much. He slowly lifted his smooth chin.

In his moist eyes was reflected a cold, stern face. On his own face was a trace of timidity, like a newborn fawn, the kind that made people want to cherish him.

Park Seok-min’s gaze wavered for a moment at the sight, but she didn’t let herself sink into it. She knew what she needed to do.

What she was doing... was for Kazue Iinoue...

Her gaze left Leng Shuang’s rippling, autumn-water eyes, drifted over his glossy black hair, swept across his soft brows, fell on his delicate, straight nose, then continued downward.

When her eyes reached his pink, glistening lips, they couldn’t help but linger.

There was a faint, tempting sheen on them, like the shine of some exquisite delicacy, luring people to lower their heads and taste it.

For a moment, even Park Seok-min felt her mouth go dry. She forcibly steadied herself, met Leng Shuang’s eyes once more, then stepped back a few paces and gave his figure another measuring look.

“Haa...”

In the end, she let out a sigh, as if her eyes had finally convinced her heart.

He really was a work of heaven.

His body proportions were flawless. Even through his clothes, Park Seok-min could sense the beautiful streamlined curves beneath. There was no bony frailty, no awkward excess weight. It was perfect.

And that face was even more handsome and pure, carrying a faint coolness without the icy distance that pushed people away. His temperament was similar to the young lady she served, yet fundamentally different.

After looking for a long while, Park Seok-min returned to her seat and said to Leng Shuang, “Leng Shuang, you can go donate now. Remember to take care of yourself. You might meet a benefactor someday.”

“Thank you.”

Leng Shuang didn’t really understand what she meant by that last part, but the pressure she gave off made him too afraid to ask. After nodding his thanks, he left the room.

“Team Leader! So? What’s the verdict?!”

Everyone crowded around, staring hard at Park Seok-min’s computer, afraid she might enter the wrong evaluation.

To them, someone at Leng Shuang’s level, with a face that stunning even without makeup and a flawless figure on top of it, if even he couldn’t meet Park Seok-min’s standards, then the world’s sense of beauty had to be warped.

On Leng Shuang’s evaluation result, Park Seok-min entered an S.

The moment they saw that S, the office exploded.

“Wooo! The first S is born!”

“That was not easy! And it’s an S certified by Team Leader Park Seok-min too. My eyes really weren’t blind!”

“This guy’s profile is probably going to blow up nationwide. This is an S-rank officially certified by a national evaluator!”

“With genes like that, who knows who’s gonna get lucky.”

After the burst of cheering, everyone remembered one regrettable fact.

The donated seed was assigned at random when used. In other words, no matter how rich you were, you couldn’t buy a specific person’s seed.

That made them all feel a little regretful. They had no idea which lucky person would end up getting the seed of an S-rank boy like him.

The evaluations continued in full swing, but after that one round of cheering in the office, there was never a second one.

“Leng Shuang, how’d it go?!”

The moment he came out, Lin Mo, who had been anxiously waiting outside, rushed up to him.

“Haa...”

As soon as he stepped out, it felt like a thousand-pound burden had been lifted off his back. He let out a long breath.

“Lin Mo, you have no idea. That super strict evaluator was seriously terrifying. She didn’t even do much, but her presence was overwhelming. I didn’t even dare breathe too hard.”

Leng Shuang shook his head, feeling like he’d finally been released. Even the blazing heat outside didn’t feel so unbearable anymore.

“Hahaha, I heard she’s some kind of executive at ‘Beautiful New World.’ Of course her aura’s strong.”

Lin Mo patted him on the back.

“Oh right, what rank did you get?”

“I don’t know yet. I’ll only know before tonight, when the subsidy money comes through.”

There was no way Leng Shuang was going to ask that cold, intimidating career woman in person.

“Alright then. Anyway, my boyfriend’s definitely the best.”

Lin Mo grabbed Leng Shuang’s hand.

“Come on, let’s go donate~”

Lin Mo walked fast, as if she were the one going in to donate.

“You really are in a hurry.”

Following behind her, Leng Shuang saw how impatient she looked and couldn’t help rolling his eyes at her.

“Hehe, I’ve been holding back for a long time.”

Lin Mo raised her brows and said something loaded with meaning.

“Hmph!”

Leng Shuang lightly punched her, face red, and let her keep holding his hand as they headed toward the donation room.

The donation room was large, divided into many small private rooms.

Some people went in alone. Some were two boys going in together, boy help boy.

There were also some boys accompanied by their girlfriends.

“Huh?”

Leng Shuang saw what looked like a mother and son lining up in front of him to register, and his expression turned a little strange.

“So that works too?”

Just as that thought crossed his mind, the boy in front wrapped his arm around the middle-aged woman and said coquettishly, “Darling, just thinking about doing it here makes me a little shy.”

“Hehehe, you little pervert. That’s not shyness. You’re excited, aren’t you?”

The middle-aged woman licked her lips, wrapped an arm around the boy, and gently rubbed him.

Seeing that, Leng Shuang awkwardly turned his head away.

He’d thought they were mother and son, but...

Still, scenes like this did show up from time to time.

Just like men liked money, rich women liked eighteen-year-old boys too. You could call that mutual fulfillment.

At that moment, Leng Shuang thought of Yu Mo, that little fairy boy.

“Yu Mo probably wouldn’t go after a middle-aged woman like that just for money...”

Then again... he really couldn’t be sure.

That guy had money on the brain all day. He loved it like his life.

Before long, after Leng Shuang finished registering, he and Lin Mo headed into one of the small rooms.

The room wasn’t big. There was a special little cup inside. As long as the donated material was placed into that cup, the staff would inspect it, and if it passed, that was it.

After closing the door, Leng Shuang sat by the small bed and awkwardly looked at the unopened TV in front of him.

That TV was probably for boys who planned to handle things by themselves.

At that moment, Lin Mo slowly moved closer too, the corners of her lips curling up like a big bad wolf.

“Can we start now?”

“S-start what...”

Leng Shuang bit his lip. Meeting the heat in Lin Mo’s pretty face, he nodded.

Getting his permission, Lin Mo licked her lips, eagerly wrapped an arm around Leng Shuang’s shoulders, and slowly leaned in, burying herself in that fair, fragrant neck.

Her warm breath brushed against Leng Shuang’s neck. Sensitive as he was, he trembled, and his cheeks flushed red.

“You didn’t forget why we came here, right?”

Leng Shuang shrank his neck a little and reminded her.

“Hehe.”

Lin Mo just laughed without answering.

The moment Leng Shuang heard that laugh, he knew she understood perfectly. She just didn’t want it to end that simply.

“Come on, can’t you be a little serious? After we get back—”

“No! I want it now...”

Before Leng Shuang could finish, Lin Mo sealed his lips and bound him with both hands, not letting him escape the cage she had woven around him.

“Hah... Lin Mo, not here, okay? There are so many people outside!”

Leng Shuang panted softly, speaking in a nervous voice.

Whenever he knew there were people nearby while doing this kind of thing, he got especially tense.

But Lin Mo didn’t care what he said. She still did exactly as she pleased.

Until he finally gave in, and the strength of his resistance grew weaker and weaker...

Letting go of Leng Shuang, Lin Mo curled her lips and breathed warm air against his face.

“Leng Shuang, if you don’t resist, then I’m going to start bullying you.”

With the shadows at her back, her eyes were strikingly bright. A fire burned in them, as if it could reduce Leng Shuang to ashes.

By now, Leng Shuang had been bullied by this girl until his gaze turned hazy. He had no strength left to resist. He lay there with his arms open, like a lamb that had been picked on until it couldn't fight back at all.

His cherry-red, damp lips parted, and he could only force out two words.

"Despicable!"

The beautiful girl heard Leng Shuang's praise. She tossed her hair, looking faintly pleased with herself...
