Chapter 63: Welcome to the Forever Idle and Anxious Psychological Rehabilitation Department!

At 8 o'clock in the morning, the peak of City A's pedestrian flow had arrived. Under the towering skyscrapers, modern office workers were bustling about.

Dressed in formal attire, holding briefcases, they checked their phone screens for the time as they navigated through the crowd, parting ways at intersections.

On the other hand, Alister, dressed well without carrying anything, strolled on the sky bridge accompanied by the morning glow that leaped from the horizon.

Turning his head, he could see the prominent Hiji Corporation Building in the distance—the leading top-tier corporation in Z Country.

Perhaps not as well-known as the North Continental Union's Dawn Corporation, but it was still a world-renowned mega-corporation.

It was a workplace that countless graduates from prestigious schools dreamt of, but Alister had effortlessly secured a position there, making people sigh that the world wasn't fair.

Just as Alister was thinking this, a familiar, cold voice came from behind.

"Alister?"

He withdrew his gaze, turned around, and saw Yumikou, with her ear-length hair pinned up, looking like a dreamlike princess under the warm sunlight.

"Luck is indeed part of one's ability."

Alister dispelled his thoughts and simply leaned on the handrail of the sky bridge.

"The world's cutest, how many points would you give this morning encounter?"

"Luck is part of one's ability. I'll reluctantly give you full marks."

Yumikou's ears turned slightly red as she used her white hair to cover it. "Why are you in the city center at this time?"

As she spoke, she approached Alister, enjoying the gentle breeze with him, and her cloud-like hair swayed, forming a beautiful arc.

"Simply put..." Alister gazed at the distant Hiji Corporation Building, "...I'm going to work."

The intoxicating scent of the world's cutest lingered in his nose. Though he was already accustomed to it, it still touched him.

"Work?" Yumikou pondered with a hint of confusion. "You've been staying at home for a long time. Why suddenly have a job?"

So Alister and Yumikou recounted yesterday's events and the details of his new job.

Five minutes later.

"...The Psychological Rehabilitation Department?"

Yumikou didn't expect Alister to become part of the Hiji Corporation.

"Although the benefits are indeed excellent... Are you really going to work there?"

"Do you mind? If you do, I won't go there." Alister took Yumikou's feelings into consideration.

In the job contract given by Ji Yi, it was explicitly stated that Alister could resign at any time.

"I must go."

However, Yumikou crossed her arms, speaking seriously and leaning against Alister's shoulder at the same time.

The reason was that the Hiji Corporation was her best friend's company.

If she had to find a job, there was no better place than there.

Besides, it was also within the jurisdiction of the Seventeenth Bureau, so even during work hours, she could find Alister if she had free time.

"The Psychological Rehabilitation Department is said to be set up for female employees of the Hiji family..."

Alister confirmed with Yumikou, "Are you sure it's okay?"

"They aren't as beautiful as me. My dear Alister has excellent taste and self-discipline."

Yumikou was quite confident.

Afterward, she furrowed her brows slightly, extended her fair index finger, and touched Alister's nose, pointing out his fault:

"You didn't say yesterday but chose to say it today. You actually understand my thoughts, right? You don't like doing meaningless things, do you?"

Alister and Yumikou had excellent telepathy, and some things were self-evident, with no need for face-to-face explanations.

After a brief moment, Alister grasped Yumikou's index finger as if catching a white rabbit and placed it over his heart, seriously explaining:

"Because I was deeply moved when I met you today, that's why I said it."

It seemed that she didn't accept this reason. She withdrew her finger, opened her arms, and said:

"Hug me."

"Hug you."

But before Alister could move, Yumikou had already embraced him on her own.

What he felt was the tender Yumikou cuteness, quietly buried in his chest. Her pure white hair slipped through the gaps between their fingers, reflecting the soft morning glow.

Needless to say, Yumikou was also here for work, and Alister didn't ask any further.

Embracing each other under the world's gaze for three minutes, Yumikou took one final deep breath and reluctantly left Alister's embrace. She reminded him with concern:

"It's your first day at work, don't be late. Go now."

"Work is not as important as you."

"Go to work."

"Mm."

...

Watching Alister disappear into the crowd of workers, Yumikou still stood on the sky bridge, just like a wife waiting for her husband's return from victory.

Finally, she managed to get through to a private contact, and on the other end was the haughty voice of a young lady.

"Morning rush hour, this lady is really busy." Himizuki seemed a bit reproachful.

Yumikou adjusted her attitude, speaking as an official representative of the Seventeenth Bureau, "Please take good care of the new staff in the Psychological Rehabilitation Department."

Upon hearing this, Himizuki chuckled and then asked playfully, "Who made you care so much about Qingxian?"

"I owe you a favor."

Yumikou's tone was clear and cold, and she didn't want to explain further.

There was a moment of silence on the other end, seemingly handling some submitted documents, and faintly heard the words "Dawn Corporation."

"Understood."

The private contact ended.

...

Arriving at the twenty-first floor of the Hiji Corporation Building, Alister stepped out of the elevator, turned left, swiped his access card, and entered a spacious hall.

The perfect working environment, or rather, the perfect entertainment area, came into view.

With half of the twenty-first floor belonging to the department, there was an elegant crystal chandelier, neat rows of sofas and coffee tables, and Hiji family employees who had been leisurely enjoying their tea but were now swiftly getting to work!

The sound of black pens scribbling on paper filled the air as they worked diligently.

Gone was the seemingly carefree appearance that Ji Yi had described. They were fully focused on their tasks with meticulous attention to detail.

Totally different from how Luorou acted, she was now genuinely concerned about her work.

"Wow, big sis, are you feeling unwell? I thought you hated working with documents?"

Luorou asked with concern, seemingly witnessing her behaving so seriously for the first time.

However, the "big sis" pointed her finger and signaled for silence.

"Shh."

In other words, she didn't want to be disturbed.

Seeing this, Luorou seemed to understand and nodded as if to say, "I won't bother you," then quietly approached Alister.

"Big sis is working, so let's go to the office of the Psychological Rehabilitation Department and chat."

She spoke in a hushed tone, as if telling a secret, and at the same time, she casually held Alister's hand and led him to the side of the hall.

Alister: "..."

Big sis: "..."

Bang! The door to the Psychological Rehabilitation Department was gently closed.

Don't leave! Come back! Who will work if you leave?!

The Hiji Corporation employees on the sofa looked at the closed door with a sad expression, feeling helpless.
