It was a special place located at the heart of Port Red where Sei was executing his high profile cyber spying, attacks and manipulations.
Thus, without wasting any second, he started re-investigating, searching for any existing clues about one of the world's most mysterious nuclear disaster, the town of Zemei's explosion.
…
A week went by…
Zaki who was the only one who was allowed to disturb the king Xi Chen just entered the King's hall when he immediately let go a deep sigh the moment he saw just how serious and focused Sei was even at that point of time. He's been in that state for a week and he doesn't even had any proper rest at all. He knew that Sei will always be like that when he turns serious and he knew he would never listen to him even if he tells him to take a break.
Thus, that moment, Zaki could only think about a certain weapon that will surely make the man obey with a single word.
He then secretly took a photo of Sei from behind and sent it to the wife with a caption of, 'S.O.S'.
Of course, as expected, the wife immediately called. However, Zaki didn't accept her call, afraid that Sei might just throw him out once he talks. So he just quickly replied her with a message.
[Don't call right now, your husband might throw me out.]
[Sei's Lifeline: What's wrong? Did something happen?]

[Sei's Lifeline: That won't do, he should rest… what if he gets sick?]
[He doesn't listen to his body nor me, your husband only listens to his will and brain. If I told him to eat, he might only beat me for disturbing him. Young Miss, i know he asked you not to send nor call him for the mean time but you're the only one i know who could help or he'll die with starvation. Please send him cheesy things or whatsoever to make him wake up and feel the pleas of his stomach.]
[Sei's Lifeline: Okay, I understand. Leave it to me. I will never let him starve himself.]
[Yey! Thank you, young miss, you're his real savior. Please scold him and don't go easy on him.]
A few seconds after sending her his reply, a certain sound echoed inside the hall. Causing the extremely focused man to finally shifted his gaze away from the computer screen.
The man's great concentration was immediately disrupted as he raised his cellphone. And the moment he saw the message, his extremely focused and serious aura suddenly dissipated into thin air. As though he was a extremely dangerous wild beast ferociously hunting for his prey that was suddenly distracted by a certain mystic and beautiful butterfly midway, causing it to immediately forget about its prey.
Zaki already expected such a reaction by him, however, his gossiping stomach want to know what she sent him. He then slowly and quietly moved like a ninja to have a peak behind the frozen man. But when he saw the words 'I'm imagining you eating with me. I think I miss you... have you eaten?', Zaki just raised a brow.
What? How boring… Would you stop acting like she just sent you something like 'I'm pregnant' when it's just a simple I miss you? Ahh this guy…
