Chapter 139 Losing Freedom

Chapter 139: Loss of Freedom

Chen Su put handcuffs on Zhao Jinzong, with silk padding around his wrists, soft enough so it wouldn't chafe his skin, no matter how much he struggled.

Chen Su slid his fingertips into Zhao Jinzong’s uninjured palm and held it gently, trying to calm the Enigma this way—though this wasn’t enough, so Chen Su went ahead and sat on the Enigma’s lap.

Chen Su pressed his lips to the Enigma’s, not giving him any chance to call for help or get away.

Zhao Jinzong had lost his absolute freedom, stuck in a tiny space, not allowed to do a lot of things.

They took his phone, he couldn't talk, couldn't leave the couch, couldn't work, couldn't be out of Chen Su's sight.

To Chen Su, losing freedom was really painful. To keep Zhao Jinzong happy and not too miserable, Chen Su went out of his way to satisfy him in certain ways.

After they were done, Chen Su wouldn't let Zhao Jinzong get off the couch.

They lay on their sides, pressed together, curled up on the couch. Zhao Jinzong's hands were stuck and could easily slip off, so Chen Su had him lie on the inside while he took the outside.

He wrapped his arms around Zhao Jinzong's waist, leaning against the Enigma's chest, and pulled a blanket over the Enigma.

Chen Su tilted his head up a little and coaxed, “Don’t be too angry.”

“Mm.”

Once he got a response, Chen Su leaned on Zhao Jinzong’s chest and fell asleep.

When he woke up, it was already time for dinner.

Chen Su looked up, and the Enigma was already awake.

“Hungry? I’ll go buy you dinner.” Chen Su got up, bent down, took the Enigma's hand, and gently rubbed it against his cheek.

He took the monitoring watch off his own wrist and put it on the Enigma's, then led him from the living room to the bedroom, locked the door, grabbed Zhao Jinzong's phone, and left.

Chen Su didn’t know his way around the Federal Office, but he had a strong scent of incense pheromones on him, and an alpha offered to guide him. Chen Su bought dinner and headed back. On the way back, Zhao Jinzong's phone rang—it was a text from Tanzhou.

Tanzhou: “When are you coming back to the capital?”

Chen Su frowned: “Busy?”

Tanzhou: “Sign the transfer order, forgot?”

Chen Su was quiet for a long time, then replied: “Busy.”

Tanzhou: “Happy wedding.”

Tanzhou: “Call me when you get back.”

Chen Su could mimic Zhao Jinzong's tone of voice about eighty percent perfectly, so he wouldn't get caught. In other words, as long as Chen Su wanted, he could lock Zhao Jinzong up in the Federal Office for a month and no one would easily notice.

They were close; no one would be stupid enough to bother them. Zhao Jinzong didn't let his subordinates contact him privately, and he didn't hand out his contact info easily. His phone had very few contacts.

Chen Su went back to the room, took off the thing gagging Zhao Jinzong, and fed him.

Worried that Zhao Jinzong was in a bad mood, angry or upset, Chen Su even kissed Zhao Jinzong's cheek before he fed him.

Zhao Jinzong ate two bites that Chen Su fed him, then looked down at his wrists and asked, his voice deep, “What do you want to do?”

Chen Su stayed quiet and kept feeding him.

Zhao Jinzong turned his head a little. “Chen Su.”

“Does it hurt?”

“No.” Zhao Jinzong wanted Chen Su to answer him.

Chen Su replied, “I want you to stay with me.”

Zhao Jinzong moved his wrist a little, his voice calm: “This is extreme.”

Chen Su nodded and changed the subject: “Are you still eating?”

“Mm.”

Zhao Jinzong didn’t get angry at Chen Su, nor did he call for help or try to leave, but Chen Su wasn’t reassured. He didn’t unlock the handcuffs and didn’t give Zhao Jinzong his phone.

Chen Su finished feeding Zhao Jinzong before he started eating.

After the meal, Chen Su looked at Zhao Jinzong. “I need to go to the study. Are you coming?”

“Mm.”

Chen Su took a blanket to Zhao Jinzong’s study. He casually flipped through some documents and took out a piece of paper and practiced Zhao Jinzong’s signature.

Zhao Jinzong’s signature was stylized, with sharp strokes—very difficult to imitate.

Zhao Jinzong sat nearby, legs crossed, watching quietly.

From time to time, Chen Su paused and glanced at him.

He saw no anger on Zhao Jinzong’s face and finally relaxed a little.

Chen Su spent several hours and finally achieved a decent resemblance.

He put down the pen and took Zhao Jinzong to the bathroom for a bath. The bathroom had a large tub…

After bathing, they returned to the bedroom. Chen Su reached for the bedside table and rummaged. Zhao Jinzong took a slight breath. “Chen Su, there’s none left.”

“…” Chen Su said, “I’ll buy some tomorrow.”

Chen Su didn’t stop there; he allowed Zhao Jinzong to indulge tonight.

He quietly leaned against the Enigma’s chest, smelling the faint incense pheromones, which worked better than sleeping pills.

The next morning, Chen Su was woken by the doorbell.

An alpha subordinate said a document box had been delivered.

Chen Su got up, wearing only a loose black bathrobe.

Chen Su opened the door. The alpha subordinate looked up and saw an alpha with love bites, thinly dressed, exuding a scent of incense pheromones… He quickly shifted his gaze to Chen Su’s knuckles, then took two steps back and said with utmost respect, “Where is the General Administration?”

Chen Su’s tone was icy: “Not here.”

“These are documents from the General Administration’s office. Please keep them for now and let him know.” These documents were in Zhao Jinzong’s office. Zhao Jinzong had said he would come pick them up yesterday, but he didn’t show up. The subordinate emailed him asking if he wanted them sent to the capital, but got no reply.

The subordinate made inquiries, confirmed that Zhao Jinzong had signed something yesterday and hadn’t left the Federal Office, so he came to bother him.

He didn’t expect… the General Administration’s spouse was also there!

"Okay."

Chen Su took the file box away and placed it in the study. After washing up, he prepared to buy breakfast. Before leaving, he told Zhao Jinzong, "I'm going to buy breakfast."

Zhao Jinzong: "Mm."

Chen Su frowned. "Don't leave."

"Okay."

Only after getting a definite answer did Chen Su leave.

Zhao Jinzong's phone had pheromone monitoring messages, which Chen Su had seen. If Zhao Jinzong left and encountered an alpha or an omega, Chen Su would know.

Chen Su knew his behavior was way too much.

But he still didn't want Zhao Jinzong to have any contact with anyone—at least not during this time.

He wanted to completely monopolize Zhao Jinzong's time.

He wanted to lean against Zhao Jinzong and rest.

He wanted to be very close to Zhao Jinzong.

He wanted Zhao Jinzong to always be within his sight, going nowhere, only accompanying him.

Imprisoning the Director General was a serious illegal act that could get him locked up. Moreover, Chen Su was still a member of the Fourth Bureau, which made it too easy for him to be dismissed. But Chen Su didn't care. Since he had already done this, he was prepared for everything.

If Zhao Jinzong stayed in the Federation, such intimate days wouldn't be many.

Chen Su could only fight for them himself.

His efforts were too extreme, making Zhao Jinzong uncomfortable and even causing some aversion. In severe cases, it could lead to estrangement.

Zhao Jinzong had never seen Chen Su like this, and Chen Su never expected himself to act this way. He knew he couldn't turn back, so he decided to see it through.

Chen Su bought breakfast and returned.

Zhao Jinzong was in the study, at the computer desk.

Zhao Jinzong hadn't left, but he had turned on the computer without permission.

Chen Su frowned and said his full name: "Zhao Jinzong."

Zhao Jinzong looked up. "Work emails."

Chen Su glanced at the computer and said coldly, "This is the last time."

Chen Su changed the computer password.

He didn't allow Zhao Jinzong to touch any electronic devices, as it made him feel very insecure. He was afraid Zhao Jinzong would want to leave the person Chen Su had become... The Enigma General Administration could seek help from the outside with just one email or one text message.

Their separation would be too easy.

Chen Su didn't want the time he had risked everything to gain to be too short.

Chen Su was very angry this morning and did not give Zhao Jinzong any breakfast.
