The Honest Wage Slave If Route (11)

Xue Ci practically ran into the room.

Even after changing his clothes, he was still uneasy. The thought that his boss had seen him behaving in a less-than-serious manner made his cheeks burn with embarrassment.

He pursed his lips and vented his temper on Cheng Yuqing.

Cheng Yuqing's phone number was set to "1", which was done by the man himself using Xue Ci's phone.

The call was answered instantly, like a cheerful dog barking. "Hey, honey, I'm almost home."

Xue Ci dissatisfied, but of course, no matter how angry he was, his tone sounded like he was being coquettish.

"Strange, he never comes here usually. What's going on today?" A strange feeling welled up in Cheng Yuqing, making him subconsciously uneasy. Unfortunately, at this moment, he didn't connect this thirty-year-old, unmarried, sexually frigid uncle with the shameless old man who was about to steal his wife.

Did he make things difficult for you?

No, not at all.

It's just a little strange.

Xue Ci stared at her toes; the slippers she was wearing were not the ones Cheng Yuqing had brought.

Does Gu Yan actually wear these fluffy slippers in private?

"Knock knock--"

The knocking on the door interrupted my train of thought.

There are only two people at home now, so who else could be knocking on the door?

Thinking of this, Xue Ci felt like he was going to be called to the president's office for a reprimand. He couldn't care Cheng Yuqing anymore. After hanging up the phone, he hurried to open the door.

Gu Yan came to invite him to dinner.

Xue Ci wasn't hungry, but how could she dare refuse?

Dining alone with her stern and unsmiling boss, Xue Ci felt uneasy, as she could feel his gaze fixed on her.

He forced a smile, unable to eat.

Fortunately, Gu Yan started talking about work, saying that the documents submitted yesterday were well done, but had some flaws.

Having been in the business world for many years, this old fox naturally knows how to manipulate people's hearts, especially those of someone like Xue Ci who has just started working.

He toned down his usual aloof and arrogant demeanor, becoming like a patient senior, guiding and instructing while inadvertently showcasing his strong work abilities.

Xue Ci even forgot to eat, her eyes sparkling as she looked at Gu Yan, revealing a hint of admiration.

Any man would feel lightheaded under that kind of gaze.

Gu Yan crossed his legs.

So cute.

I want to fuck.

I wanted to hide under his table and help him eat it.

Xue Ci was completely unaware of the absurd thoughts in Gu Yan's mind, and asked several questions in a row. Under Gu Yan's deliberate guidance, the distance between the two was also shortened.

So Cheng Yuqing rushed back with the lunch he bought from the city, he saw Xue Ci and his uncle being so close and harmonious.

Anyone who didn't know better would think they were a family, an older man and a younger woman.

How is that possible?!

Cheng Yuqing broke out in a cold sweat at the thought and quickly reassured herself that it wouldn't happen.

They are naturally family; Xue Ci is his wife.

"Wife!"

His voice was louder than usual, and when Xue Ci finally looked up at him, he immediately rushed over like a large dog.

He then gave Xue Ci a hard kiss on the cheek.

The "pop" sound echoed throughout the living room.

Xue Ci: "..."

He felt quite embarrassed, after all, he had always been a rather serious subordinate in front of Gu Yan.

Fortunately, Gu Yan remained calm and indifferent, just like usual.

Xue Ci breathed a sigh of relief and secretly pushed away Cheng Yuqing, who was about to continue kissing him.

The three of them had lunch together at noon. Xue Ci felt awkward, like meeting an unfamiliar relative, and urged Cheng Yuqing to leave.

After the two left, Gu Yan collected the towel and disposable toothbrush that Xue Ci had left there and took them to his usual apartment.

*

Fortunately, it was just a minor incident. After that, Gu Yan treated him the same way at work, only occasionally talking about his relationship with Cheng Yuqing after work.

Xue Ci said everything was fine on the surface, but in her heart she couldn't wait to break up.

Besides breaking up, he also sent out his resume.

Unfortunately, it's not time for him to change jobs yet; he still needs to negotiate with two more people before leaving the Gu Group.

Dating one person is already exhausting; if he were to date two more, his lips might get kissed raw.

Xue Ci wasn't narcissistic; he didn't feel that all these men wanted to kiss him. It was simply that his experiences in several worlds had made him think this way.

Not only does she kiss him, but she also likes to hold him on her lap and kiss him, constantly pressing her lips against his stomach.

Xue Ci sighed.

For the next two weeks, he still reluctantly complied with Cheng Yuqing's every request. After that one time, Cheng Yuqing became addicted and would pester him like a wild beast in heat whenever he came home.

Sometimes he would use being too tired from working overtime as an excuse, but he would be woken up by being licked while he was still half asleep.

"Hmm..."

Finally, she burst into tears, trembling.

Xue Ci was actually feeling comfortable, and she cried because she felt too comfortable.

But he was also a little angry.

How could you do these things without his knowledge...?

His face was wet and red, streaked with tears, and he was covered in sweat; the sheets were soaked with his bodily fluids.

The air was filled with a sweet, cloying scent.

Xue Ci felt ashamed.

What's going on...? His body seems to be acting a little strange.

It's as if they've gotten used to it; even when they're asleep, they can still be licked.

what to do...

Xue Ci sniffed.

He got out of bed looking pitiful.

No matter how much Cheng Yuqing apologized, he ignored her and wouldn't let her touch him. He locked the bathroom door himself before coming out.

After we left, she didn't want to share a room with him anymore.

He hid for a few days until he felt less sensitive and his anger subsided.

In Cheng Yuqing's eyes, Xue Ci ignoring him these past few days felt like the sky had fallen. He had tried every trick in the book, but Xue Ci didn't smile at him sweetly as usual.

Finally, Cheng Yuqing had no other choice but to stand naked in front of Xue Ci's room door.

I made you angry, honey, I'm sorry.

He gripped Xue Ci's wrist tightly, refusing to let go, his body heat dissipating into the air through his muscles.

"Do whatever you want with me, kick me, slap me, whatever you want, I'm going crazy if you ignore me again."

Cheng Yuqing close by and tall, so Xue Ci could only see his solid muscles.

He lowered his eyes awkwardly.

"You... get dressed."

"Okay, I'll do whatever my wife says."

Then she put on a tank top.

She was still not wearing anything underneath.

Bright and shiny.

Xue Ci felt dizzy even after accidentally catching a glimpse of it. Was this the thing that had been bumping into his stomach all this time?

Is it... that big?

No wonder his stomach felt so uncomfortable.

"I... I'm not angry anymore."

Only Xue Ci speaking did Cheng Yuqing finally put his clothes on.

The man has recently developed a great physique, not overly muscular, but with smooth lines. He achieved this physique by using photos from his time at Bai Wu University and training with a coach to replicate them one-to-one.

Besides working out, he also attended a cooking class.

In short, he accepted being Bai Wu's stand-in during his university days.

Even Bai Wu couldn't be a stand-in, but he could.

This indicates that Xue Ci simply likes this particular style, not that she likes Bai Wu.

He just needs to work towards that goal.

That night they slept in the same bed again. Cheng Yuqing hid under the covers and licked Xue Ci until she was comfortable, and they reconciled.

For the next few days, Xue Ci was very clingy to him.

She would even secretly send him messages while working overtime.

Cheng Yuqing felt that all her efforts these past few days had been worthwhile.

He and Xue Ci quickly entered the honeymoon phase.

That's not actually the case.

Xue Ci kept sending messages, even though the storyline was about to reach the point of breaking up in less than a week, but Cheng Yuqing no intention of breaking up at all.

Besides kissing and other things... during this time, the other person actually took good care of him.

Xue Ci felt completely too embarrassed to use the same kind of passive-aggressive tactics as Bai Wu had.

He searched online for various ways to break up and came across one called "heat violence".

It means giving the other person absolutely no space, sending messages 24/7, making them feel suffocated and overwhelmed.

11 felt that this method would only make Cheng Yuqing.

Xue Ci messages like a doting wife while hiding at the company working overtime and refusing to go home.

[I really seem like a jerk.]

Xue Ci lay on the desk, her cheek pressed against the cool, lacquered surface, her face curving into a soft arc.

[The jerk is a little sleepy now...]

The next second, he fell into a deep sleep.

A tall, imposing figure approached. Gu Yan looked at his sleeping assistant, gently lifting her snow-white face, the soft flesh of her cheek leaving a smooth, slippery touch on his fingertips.

After the cushion was placed on her, Xue Ci slept even more soundly.

Gu Yan's gaze fell on the computer screen, where Xue Ci's WeChat was logged in, and messages kept popping up in the chat box.

[Honey, I just went to buy cat ears.]

How about we try this tonight?

Gu Yan's dark eyes instantly darkened, as if a storm was brewing.

These Cheng Yuqing has been showing off to him all the time, Xue Ci has become clingy.

Cat ears?

Gu Yan looked at Xue Ci's fluffy head.

It's a good fit.

Cheng Yuqing simply couldn't see it.

*

Cheng Yuqing, who was excited to receive permission to pick up his wife from work, hadn't even been happy for two minutes when Xue Ci told him not to come anymore.

Cheng Yuqing called again, but no one answered.

He waited anxiously at home. About five minutes later, a car stopped downstairs, Xue Ci got out of the car.

That car belonged to Gu Yan, so he naturally recognized it.

Before he could fully relax, his heart clenched again the moment he opened the door to greet Xue Ci.

Why are there several hickeys on Xue Ci's neck?

Her lips were red, as if she had just been kissed.

Who is it?

The answer is obvious.

Cheng Yuqing had already become wary of Gu Yan the day he returned from the villa, but he never expected that Xue Ci would also be willing.

No, Xue Ci was probably unwilling; she was forced into it.

He took a deep breath, pretended nothing had happened, and ate dinner together, picking up food and watching a movie on the sofa.

But my heart couldn't stop feeling heavy.

After Xue Ci home, she became less talkative and completely lost the enthusiasm she had for sending messages.

She looked very tired and was resting on the sofa.

Why am I so tired?

Were you tired from being Gu Yan?

Cheng Yuqing's eyes turned sinister as he stared at the glaring red mark on Xue Ci's neck.

Xue Ci down his spine without realizing it. After regaining some composure, he got up and went to his bedroom to sleep.

The moment she shrank under the covers, Cheng Yuqing coiled around her like a snake.

She wrapped her arms around his waist and pressed her fingertips firmly against his lower abdomen.

Xue Ci snapped back to reality.

He knew what Cheng Yuqing meant.

"No more... I'm so tired..."

He declined in a soft, sleepy voice.

Just as drowsiness was slipping into a deep sleep, the next second—

"Didn't the baby say he'd give it to me tonight?"

Cheng Yuqing, cold voice rang in my ears.

The heat rushed over, dampening her fair earlobes.

Or is your stomach already full?

Xue Ci was bullied until midnight before finally going to sleep.

Cheng Yuqing crazy today. She insisted on carrying him to the mirror and whispering in his ear that she wanted him to see him swallowing something.

Xue Ci blushed so deeply that her whole body turned pink, and she trembled violently until she finally fainted.

Fortunately, the next day was a business trip, and the schedule was in the afternoon.

Cheng Yuqing had packed the suitcase Cheng Yuqing morning. After Xue Ci woke up, she picked up the suitcase with a cold face and went on Gu Yan with Gu Yan.

Cheng Yuqing was extremely uneasy those few days, and the business trip was an easy excuse to use for having an affair.

He kept sending messages, and even though Xue Ci replied, he still couldn't fall asleep. He even dreamed that Gu Yan was holding Xue Ci and pressing her against the glass window, making her meow like a kitten, her face flushed.

But he was frozen in place and unable to move.

This fear became a reality a few days later.

His heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally died.

Xue Ci sent a breakup message.

*

[Congratulations, host! You have successfully broken up. You have earned 700 points!]

Xue Ci breathed a sigh of relief.

He originally thought he wouldn't be able to complete the mission, but a small accident happened during his business trip—he got drunk at a party with Gu Yan, Gu Yan also got drunk. The next day, the two of them woke up in the same bed.

Xue Ci so frightened he almost fainted, but at this moment, he actually thought of using his own mistake to break up with him.

This way it won't be considered OOC (Out of Context).

Nothing happened between him and Gu Yan; his mouth wasn't numb and his body wasn't in pain.

To complete the mission, he feigned a panicked state as if an accident had occurred, begging the other party not to tell Cheng Yuqing.

However, Gu Yan's answer was--

"We've already slept in."

Xue Ci: "?"

Is Gu Yan... some kind of feudal old-fashioned person?

Is it because you don't understand this knowledge?

However, this ironically led to his breakup.

After Xue Ci sent the breakup message, she patiently explained to Gu Yan that they had only slept in the same bed. However, Gu Yan seemed to be very traditional in this regard, saying that he only slept in the same bed with his wife.

Xue Ci didn't know what to say and remained silent the whole way back.

Gu Yan's attitude towards him had clearly changed; she asked if he was free the next day and even helped him carry his suitcase.

Xue Ci was extremely embarrassed.

Cheng Yuqing's message came at this very moment.

The other person said they had come to pick him up at the airport so they could have a proper talk about breaking up.

It looks like he was injured.

Xue Ci accepted the invitation, said goodbye to Gu Yan, and politely declined the invitation for tomorrow.

He pushed his suitcase, his figure receding into the distance, unaware that the man with deep thoughts had a slight upturn at the corner of his lips as he turned around.

Xue Ci arrived at the agreed-upon place.

Cheng Yuqing came with a driver this time.

As soon as he got in the car, the driver left.

Only the two of them remained in the enclosed space.

Xue Ci had a bad feeling, and sure enough, Cheng Yuqing soon pulled him into his arms.

The man roughly lifted the corner of his shirt, his tone sinister. "Let me see if your stomach is full."

Xue Ci frowned.

He struggled incessantly, but the other person forcibly tore at his clothes.

Xue Ci's shirt had two buttons ripped off, and she was heartbroken.

He pushed Cheng Yuqing forcefully.

The force was a bit too much; Cheng Yuqing's back hit something and made a dull thud.

That sounds painful.

Xue Ci felt guilty and was about to ask him if he was alright when she heard him chuckle softly.

"Sleep with me once, and I'll never bother you again."
