Wet. Soft and tight. As the stunning beauty, who had lost her vision, bit her lower lip, her pale, soft body undulated gently.

In a kneeling position, the space between two fingers had already been moistened, with a transparent fluid sliding down.

The red fruit and stamens on the flower trembled simultaneously, and the dazed person collapsed into her arms, completely drained of strength.

Restraining herself, she bit down on Luo Li's shoulder, swallowing the small sounds, while uncontrollable physiological tears wetted the corners of her eyes.

The mischievous one showed no signs of stopping. As she kissed away the tears at the corners of her eyes, she made an excuse, "Baby, you get tired too easily. You need more exercise."

The black silk ribbon had long since slipped down past her high nose, and her fair face was flushed. Her misty eyes showed a hint of reproach, as she tried to turn away.

However, this little kitten had already fallen into someone's arms, and with her waist gently held, she was effortlessly flipped over.

Once again, filled, embraced, the cycle continued, countless times.

"Enough..." The trembling person, on the verge of tears, pushed weakly, her hands barely resting on Luo Li's shoulder.

"Shh, don't cry," the soft-spoken one comforted her gently, wiping her tears and coaxing her tenderly, though her actions showed no sign of restraint.

The little kitten had no choice but to be thoroughly exhausted, even though her body's heat had long dissipated. Her mind grew foggy, and by the end, she could only remember pleading hoarsely for mercy.

For the next month, Luo Li didn't sleep with Lu Cixue again.

——

It wasn't until March of the following year that Luo Li could walk on her own two feet again.

Although she still needed regular training, it wasn't much of a problem. The doctor said that her recovery speed was already considered fast.

For someone who loved being outdoors all the time, lying at home for three months and attending classes taught by the teachers Luo Zhining had arranged for her felt like hell.

However, with daily photo shoots and attending classes, her rest time was quite fulfilling.

The most joyful thing was that she brought Lu Cixue home for the New Year, and her family welcomed them with boundless enthusiasm, without any tension.

In that moment, Luo Li's heart warmed. There was nothing more heartwarming than seeing her parents respect the person she loved.

But now, sitting in the office, Luo Li felt uncomfortable.

After that incident, He Qinian had resigned voluntarily, and she had no idea where he had taken Duoduo. They agreed to continue sending money to the designated bank account, but there wasn't much else to discuss.

Now, not only had her identity been exposed, but her parents had also placed her in the planning department, inevitably attracting gossip.

But honestly, Luo Li believed she wasn't any worse than He Qinian. While she was often pampered and spoiled at home, that didn't mean she was a complete loafer.

Still, the way her colleagues treated her with surface-level politeness while harboring resentment behind her back was indeed frustrating.

[You patted your "Kitty wife (heart)"]

[What's wrong, still getting used to things?]

[(Crying) They say I'm just a pretty face who got parachuted in. My fragile little heart needs some comforting from my wife.]

(Kiss and hug.jpg)

Luo Li watched as the "typing..." indicator appeared on the other side for a long time. Eventually, the other party sent a rather standard emoji, and Luo Li thought she could shamelessly pull through this situation.

[Should I come over? I'll be really careful not to get caught (pokes fingers together)]

— Tsk, why does it sound like sneaking around?

This time, the reply took a moment longer: [Alright, come over.]

Luo Li walked through the office area quietly and expressionless. After work, only a few people remained scattered around, and while they looked up at her briefly, they soon went back to their tasks.

The marketing department, on the other hand, was almost completely empty. When things weren't busy, no one liked to stay late at the company. Luo Li cautiously sat down next to Chen Ting.

"You've been hiding well," Chen Ting jabbed Luo Li's arm while packing up, speaking in a low voice. "What, here to seek comfort from Director Lu?"

Chen Ting, who mingled in gossip groups, had long seen the dissatisfied murmurs.

The deputy manager of the planning department was the nephew of a major shareholder on the board, and he had been sure he would get promoted after He Qinian left. But then, Luo Li was placed in the role, so naturally, he was disgruntled.

"Be careful. Someone might try to trip you up behind your back."

Though Chen Ting thought, with Luo Li's backing—her father, her mother, and Director Lu—there probably wasn't much to worry about.

"Got it, I'm leaving. Can I borrow this file folder?"

Chen Ting watched her friend's exaggerated exit, feeling overwhelmed by the stench of romance.

Luo Li quietly opened the door. The person on the sofa was looking down at her phone, her beautiful brows furrowed. When she saw Luo Li enter, she naturally turned off the screen.

Luo Li threw herself into Lu Cixue's lap with a dramatic howl. Feeling a gentle hand caressing her head, all her bad emotions vanished instantly.

Cool, soft fingers rested beside her temples, massaging them skillfully.

"This is inevitable. Don't worry about what they say. Just focus on your work, but be cautious of those around you," Lu Cixue advised, her gaze lowering as if passing on wisdom.

"Hmm? Why does it sound like someone wants to harm me? Chen Ting said the same thing earlier." Luo Li, lying on Lu Cixue's lap, found this rather amusing.

Lu Cixue raised an eyebrow but remained silent.

— How could it not be? People were vying for favor, even reaching out to her.

But remembering what Luo Zhining had told her, Lu Cixue chose to keep quiet, agreeing with Luo Li's parents to turn a blind eye.

How would a young eagle learn to fly without facing danger?

Luo Li wrapped her arms around Lu Cixue's slender waist, her clear eyes gazing straight at her, blinking twice.

Lu Cixue smiled helplessly and leaned down for a light kiss.

"Not enough…"

"My parents are using me like a brick, making me oversee everything. I'm so tired!"

Luo Li closed her eyes, her mouth chattering about needing kisses to recharge, noisily demanding affection.

Director Lu, watching this playful and whiny person, suddenly felt a mixture of pity and amusement.

Would this one still be smiling later?

But for now, there was no harm in indulging her a little.

Luo Li felt a soft, moist sensation on her lips. The nimble tip of a tongue gently pried open her lips, sliding inside. Luo Li couldn't help but respond, feeling her ears heat up.

—She knew it. Lu Cixue's aloof and chaste act was all a front. When this kitten got bold, she could be truly troublesome.

After the kiss finally ended, Luo Li noticed that most of Lu Cixue's lipstick was gone. Her lips were now moist and alluring, half-dazed and unaware of their own allure.

Luo Li recalled that there were still some unused condoms left in the resting room—no need to waste them.

"It's still early. You don't have to work late anyway..." Luo Li's fingers drew circles in Lu Cixue's soft palm, her bright eyes full of mischief.

"This is an office..." Lu Cixue's pupils dilated slightly at Luo Li's audacity, barely managing to refuse before being silenced once again.

"It's fine. The door is locked. There's nothing going on lately, and everyone's left. No one will come looking for you." Luo Li buried herself into the soft, snow-white curve, pleading pitifully. "You're leaving for a business trip tomorrow, and we won't see each other for a while..."

In the past, Luo Li had seen classmates overseas who were particularly enthusiastic about such things. Whenever they could meet, they'd immediately go to a hotel. At the time, she'd found it surprising, thinking she'd never be so overwhelmed by desire.

But now she realized that thought was quite unreliable. When you truly liked someone, it was hard to resist wanting to touch them.

Though she had a habit of dragging her kitty into strange places for strange activities.

"Let's wait until we're home..."

Even as Lu Cixue said it, she wondered if she had been indulging Luo Li's mischief too much.

"You're lying. Last time, you said the same thing, but you spent the whole night packing." Luo Li wasn't falling for it this time, her voice tinged with the hurt of having been deceived.

Because last time, after packing, Lu Cixue had gone to sleep in another room.

Thinking back, Luo Li decided she was owed some compensation.
