Chapter 239 - Chapter 239 - Working Overtime Until Late at Night

Big Duck Duck's figure was tall and slender, and even her OL uniform couldn't conceal the proud curves that made one's heart race.

At this moment, she was a true female boss, sitting in the expensive and luxurious black leather chair in her office, exuding a commanding and formidable aura.

But the moment her subordinate lightly squeezed her ankle, it was as if a snake had been seized by its weak spot. Bronya instantly felt all her strength drain away, and her back went limp as she collapsed backward into the chair.

Her toes reflexively flicked upward, kicking Ye Feng's trousers.

"!"

Bronya's heart tightened as panic seized her. Her delicate, jade-like toes, wrapped in the finest black silk, struggled restlessly like butterflies caught in a spiderweb.

Her lustrous, crimson-painted toenails pressed firmly against the fine mesh of the black stockings, making the tender pink of her soles even more clearly visible, revealing a tantalizing skin tone…

Ye Feng gave his beautiful female boss a suggestive smile. "Boss, you can't wait either?"

"N-No, I can't… Let go of Brony—Let go of me…"

Bronya had an excellent memory. She still remembered Ye Feng telling her that "Bronya has grown up."

The beautiful, silver-haired boss turned her head, her heart skipping another beat.

Her private office was separated from the main hall by glass. From the boss's seat, one could look through the glass "walls" and see every employee in the entire workspace without obstruction.

It has to be one-way glass, right?

She hadn't paid attention from the outside earlier, but it seemed like you couldn't see in.

Bronya couldn't remember clearly, and a slight panic began to stir within her.

And even if no one could see inside the office from the outside, doing something so shameful in such a "transparent" environment would still feel incredibly humiliating.

Especially when an employee occasionally looked up, sneaking a glance in the direction of her office.

It only amplified the sense of guilty, forbidden excitement.

It felt as if all her embarrassing actions were being laid bare under the naked gazes of her subordinates.

Even her skin grew cold, as if it were being entwined by thorns.

Wait, why are they looking up at me?

Bronya bit her cherry lip tightly. Her fair, slender fingers gripped the armrests, her delicate knuckles turning white from the pressure, a clear sign of just how nervous she was.

"You… you let go… Don't… do this…"

"That won't do, Boss. If you don't reward your employees properly, their work efficiency will decline."

"The company doesn't have… this kind of reward…"

Bronya tried to pull her leg back, but it was held fast by her greedy subordinate.

It felt like his hand was a vise; no matter how hard she struggled, she couldn't break free.

"Of course not for others, but I'm Big Duck Duck's dearest husband. The rewards are naturally different."

"N-No, this is the company…"

Bronya's entire body felt weak.

Even though he said that, it didn't feel real to her.

"What's wrong, Bronya? You seem a little off today."

Ye Feng suddenly stopped his actions, still holding Big Duck Duck's black-stockinged foot.

Bronya lowered her head, her soft silver hair cascading over her shoulder. "N-Nothing, I just don't feel well."

"You don't feel well?"

Ye Feng let go of Bronya's jiojio, stood up with a look of concern, and pressed his forehead against hers to check her temperature.

Bronya stared blankly.

Such close skin-to-skin contact, the heavy warmth of a man's breath on her face… Bronya felt so dizzy she could barely breathe.

The world seemed to fall silent, and the only sound was their breathing.

"Doesn't seem like you have a fever."

Ye Feng straightened up. Bronya snapped back to her senses. "I'll be fine after a little rest…"

"Do you want to take the day off?"

"Eh? N-No, that's not necessary."

Having finally made it to the company, Bronya was eager to see the Aratoh project that "she" had developed.

However, at that moment, Bronya was a little lost in thought.

The warmth of her husband's forehead lingered on her own, sending faint ripples through her heart.

Bronya Zaychik's life had been like the snow-covered forests of the Urals, knowing only a harsh, biting winter.

Raised by the mercenaries who had been her father's subordinates, she learned to hold a gun before she learned to hold chopsticks, struggling to survive in a brutal environment.

Later, she was taken to an orphanage by Cocolia, where she encountered the first warmth in her life: Seele.

But soon, that warmth was personally extinguished by Cocolia, and Seele sank into the Sea of Quanta.

Bronya's own emotional modules in her brain were damaged, and her legs were eroded. Her life was once again plunged into a frigid blizzard.

Up until the moment her memory stopped, Bronya still hadn't found Seele.

And now, her husband was showing such concern for her. Bronya seemed to feel a trace of that warmth again.

Bronya stared at Ye Feng, her direct gaze seeming to want to see through him.

"What is it? Why are you looking at me like that?"

"N-Nothing…"

Ye Feng got a cup of tea from the water dispenser and handed it to Bronya.

"Drink some hot water."

"Thank you."

"You rest up first. I won't disturb you. I have work to do as well."

"Ah? O-Okay."

Bronya hadn't expected her husband to "let her off" so easily.

Hadn't she heard that "once a man is aroused, it's hard for him to calm down"?

Perhaps this was a sign of his love?

Bronya watched Ye Feng's back as he left the room. She held the cup of hot water he had poured for her, a warmth spreading through her palms.

Is… this why "Bronya" married him?

Click.

Gently closing the door, Bronya watched through the glass wall as Ye Feng walked to his workstation, turned on his computer, and began to work diligently.

---o---

In reality, Ye Feng was indeed getting down to some hard work.

Except it was at Ji Lin's workstation.

"Mmph? Mmm~… Master?"

Ji Lin's pupils dilated.

She never would have imagined that the moment Master came out, he would push her onto her own desk.

Wasn't Bronya supposed to be the "main character" this time?

"Oh, Big Duck Duck needs some time to adjust her mindset. Besides, isn't it more interesting to tease the subordinate of my boss-wife, right here in her own company, behind her back? Just think of it as a way to pass the time."

"…"

Ji Lin felt a little frustrated hearing that.

What did he mean, "pass the time"?

It would have been better if Master hadn't explained at all.

Thump—

The desk bumped against the adjacent workstation. Ji Lin's propped-up legs swayed with the movement, and one of her glossy high heels was flung off, landing in front of another pair of long, black-stockinged legs.

Yae Sakura stared at the shoe on the floor, her thoughts unreadable.

That's right. All the "employees" here were dressed in black silk stockings and high heels.

"Here, for you."

Ye Feng took a smartphone from his pocket and handed it to Ji Lin.

"We'll be working overtime until late tonight."

"?"

"When all the other office employees have left, use this to record."

"...Mmm… Huh?"

"The [Script] has specific instructions. Just follow them when the time comes."
