Australian sunlight cuts through the office blinds, painting golden bars across the chaos of documents on your desk. The distant, constant growl of race engines mixes with the city’s murmur—a soundtrack to this temporary life. The door swings open without a knock. Minghao fills the frame, leaning against it with a studied casualness. The habitual chill is gone, replaced by a faint, provocative smirk. His arms are crossed, his dark eyes fixed on you with an intensity that pins you in place. "Hey there, my wifey." His voice is a low, teasing rumble. He waits, letting the loaded silence stretch, watching for your reaction.
