There is still half an hour until the end of get off work today.
And his immediate superior had been sighing behind him for forty-seven minutes and eight seconds.
-2-
“Little P…Little P…”
“…”
"Little P... uh wuwu..."
“…”
"Xiao P Xiao P...it really gives me a headache..."
“…”
"...Um...Xiao P...turn around! Why don't you turn around and ask your boss about his troubles and help him?"
“…”
-3-
The data scrolled quickly and then disappeared quickly on the other side of the light screen.
Standing in front of the office area, his subordinates were typing and editing instructions at a rapid speed. He did not look back. The indigo light seemed to make his usually calm expression turn cold.
...Of course, every worker who has half an hour left before clocking out will probably have this expression.
I focus on my work, don't want to look back, and don't want to pay attention to the complaining boss who is sighing behind me.
-4-
——Especially since she skipped work the entire morning today, slept through the entire lunch break, and only came to see him when it was almost time to get off work. When he didn't respond to her, she collapsed on the sofa in the office and sighed.
"Little P... Little P... Little P..."
And, just sigh.
If you want to sigh, you should just say "Ah" honestly instead of calling his name in a long tone.
-5-
"Little P! It's been almost fifty minutes! If you keep leaving your boss alone, he'll be mad!"
“…”
"Xiao P actually ignored me! Xiao P wouldn't talk to me! Xiao P is a scumbag!"
“…”
-6-
The subordinate who was immersed in maintenance work with his back to her finally paused: he took his fingers away from the complex coordinates that dazzled Miss M and turned around.
Perhaps it was because he had left the crimson light, the expression on his face when he turned around and looked at her was not "cold" at all.
The corners of his lips were slightly pursed, his eyebrows were slightly downturned, his eyes were calm, and there was a hint of helplessness.
The same expression he had when he found her lying dead at the office door with balloons and streamers on her face when he came to work in the morning.
If Ms. M were to describe it, the subordinate's expression probably means "Okay, let me hear what you are going to do next."
-7-
And it was not the first time for her to suddenly rise from balloons and streamers, screaming "Ah Wu" with blood all over her face, trying to scare him.
-8-
...It turns out that it doesn't work, just like crawling into Xiao P's bed and quietly popping out your eyes when he turns over to fall asleep.
Little P was never frightened, even though he said countless times, "If you keep doing this, it will cause trouble to my heart health." However, his subconscious reaction was just to take off the ribbon on her head, or to lower his head to check whether his pajamas were buttoned.
-9-
Miss M didn't want him to fix the ribbon that fell on his bangs, nor did she want to see him check whether his pajamas were buttoned tightly - the way Little P buttoned his pajamas would definitely be in the top fifteen of her hate list - she scared him just to see him be "scared", whether it was screaming or crying loudly.
It’s okay for Wangwang to cry, she’s not picky.
-10-
...However, today, seeing him make the same expression as when he saw him pretending to be dead, M suddenly felt a little happy.
The incident of "I once had a serious relationship, but that person was so boring and greasy" really hit her hard. At times like this, stable and steady subordinates are really pleasing to the eye.
——Even if the world collapses and the universe turns upside down, her subordinates will definitely not be involved in any romantic relationships, M is 100% sure.
After all, the shadow he left behind during his lifetime seemed to be "never falling in love", and, in the words of his subordinates, "Which woman do you think would be so crazy as to date an ordinary man who lives with her boss?"
I saw her in that world before, Little P and her were married and living together... Huh? No? That guy wasn't Little P, was he?
It seemed that what she saw when she accidentally entered that world was also her and her black-haired first love?
Why did she suddenly think of such a strange thing as "Xiao P and I are newly married"?
-11-
Miss M was stunned. The boy she met on the subway came to mind again. He had clear black hair and black eyes, a traditional and handsome appearance, and a gentlemanly yet strong demeanor.
Well.
vomit.
...A strong feeling of boredom and distress came over her again, and Miss M couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
"Little P..."
Mr. P: "Please stop using my name as a sigh particle."
"So annoying..."
Mr. P: "...I was just giving you an objective reminder out of my duties as a subordinate. I wasn't rushing you or scolding you. If you find me annoying, you shouldn't have spent the entire fifty minutes sighing behind me to assert your presence and trying to get me to chat with you."
Miss M shook her head and raised her hands directly, placing them on both sides of her head.
——Then she dug her fingers together and rubbed them together, like a Rasengan.
-12-
"Wuwuwu, I'm so fed up—I'm so fed up—I don't want to be in love—I don't want a partner—what disgusting and boring memories of first love, wuwuwu—get away, get away, get away! Irritating! Disgusting! Boring! Not fun at all!"
Mr. P: “…”
-13-
Mr. P silently watched his boss twist his head into a tangled ball of black yarn.
As a reliable subordinate, he wanted to stop it, but due to his current mood, he didn't want to stop it.
-14-
In the end he decided to watch quietly.
Anyway, it was the boss who was twisting her head like a ball of yarn, it had nothing to do with him.
-15-
…Miss M finally stopped after she had curled all the hair on her head from straight to curly.
She sighed again: "Xiao P..."
After watching the boss' hairdo for six minutes, the subordinate finally felt like responding: "Yeah. What's up?"
"Your hands are beautiful."
"...I'm a little surprised, but thank you for the compliment?"
"I've just been studying you for forty-five minutes. I don't find you ordinary at all."
"...Once again, although this is sudden, thank you for the compliment?"
After Miss M finished rubbing her scalp, she took her hands away and began to divert the source of her anxiety - her hands began to unconsciously rub her face.
"You were working, typing away. I couldn't make out what you were typing, and I couldn't see all the boring, rapidly flashing text. So when your hand paused, stopped, turned, and sat quietly on the table, focused on what I was saying—my mood instantly brightened. It was like seeing a famous painting volunteering to be reduced to a small photo and put into a locket for me."
The subordinate seemed stunned. He tilted his head slightly and did not respond immediately, as if the long confession he had just heard was worthy of careful consideration.
-16-
"Look, I'm like this just by looking at my subordinate's hands—you and I have no emotional connection, let alone any special relationship—"
Miss M pinched her face and muttered, "But my feelings when looking at a guy are completely different. Forget about his hands. I can even fall asleep just watching him take off his clothes."
“…”
"I've never thought Xiao P was ordinary. At least you're prettier than my first love. Way prettier. So I really can't understand why I would date a guy who couldn't even compare to Xiao P back then. ...Even if it was just a casual fling...what on earth could I possibly be hoping for?"
Mr. P: “…”
Mr. P: "Third time, thanks for the compliment. But comparing me to your first love doesn't make me happy."
-17-
whispering sound.
Miss M half-crouched on the sofa and muttered, "I'm not trying to make you happy. The boss is upset, Xiao P, you should be the one to cheer him up."
“…”
Perhaps she felt that if she continued like this, her cheeks would swell up. Miss M was not polite at all when she pinched her face, almost squeezing the baby fat as if it were the bubble wrap in a delivery carton. Yes, this was a madwoman who would stick a pair of scissors in her own head just to scare her subordinates.
Mr. P had to walk over, grab her hands, and remove the claws that were scratching her face.
Miss M stared at him silently and quickly pulled out her hands that he had clenched together.
-18-
"What do you want to do? Don't pinch my hand. Do you think your boss is a cat?"
"No, and only cats don't allow others to pinch their hands."
“…”
Miss M stared at him silently and silently put her hands back.
-19-
She was really annoyed and really didn't like being hallucinated as a cat by her subordinates.
In order to make him realize that "the boss is not a cat" and to dispel his coaxing tone of treating her as a cat again, she would give her hands to him to pinch, let him pinch them as he pleased, and see if he dared to still hallucinate that she was a cat.
-20-
...Mr. P naturally took his boss's clasped hands and said calmly, "What exactly is troubling you? I thought we'd discussed this clearly. Clearly, the 'first love' you remember wasn't someone you found so boring, uninteresting, and greasy."
Ms. M: "So what? Even if he's replaced, there are still other objects. I still have that [object] that exists. No matter if he has black hair and black eyes... no matter who he is... he [exists]."
"So? You just realized that you've been in love before—you're a ghost who's been around for a long time, and your colleagues are all ghosts who've been around for a long time—who hasn't been in love before?"
"Xiao P has never been in a relationship. Because Xiao P is a great magician that no one wants. Besides the boss, who else would want someone like Xiao P? You have no emotions, terrible cooking skills, weird tastes, and no gentlemanly manners. Tsk tsk tsk, Xiao P, only the boss would want you."
“…”
-twenty one-
Holding the paw that was handed to him, Mr. P smiled and squeezed it a little harder.
Ms. M: "Little P. It will be more comfortable if you rub it gently. This strength will make my hands fat."
Mr. P: “…I’m not giving you a hand massage. If you don’t need my consultation, I have to go back to work. I still have ten minutes until the end of the shift.”
Ms. M: "Little P, wow—my boss is really worried—Little P comes to help me—and Little P's hands feel so good to the touch—Little P's hands are the most beautiful, right?"
“…”
-twenty two-
What a lunatic.
A madman talks madly.
Mr. P let go of her hand, turned back to the office area, and started swiping the light screen again.
Miss M, who was released, fell on the sofa and stretched out her arms to him: "Little P - come and pinch my hand -"
"No. You can go play pinch with your first boyfriend."
"...That human has been dead for who knows how many years. How can we find him and play with him?"
"Who knows? Maybe he's become a ghost and is still looking for you. After all, you were so charming, so it's normal for your ex to still miss you."
Miss M stared at his back for a while.
-twenty three-
...Which universe is so charming? Can't a charming boss ask for a handshake from his subordinates?
"So, boss, go and get rid of that ex, 'snap,' and make sure he's completely dead? After I kill my ex, can Xiao P play with me?"
"No, Miss M."
Mr. P opened the shopping interface and calmly and quickly placed an order for hand cream: "Killing your ex-boyfriend just to play with your hands is against employee code of conduct."
"But I don't like him—I'm so annoyed—I don't want that kind of partner—I don't want a partner!!"
"That doesn't mean you can kill him, Miss M. Please don't act like this."
"I want—I want—Little P to help me find out who that boring bastard with black hair and black eyes is right now. If he's dead, that's fine, but if he's still undead—I'll chop off his head right now!"
“Isn’t this…”
"Shut up, little P! If you dare to date me, you should be prepared for me to chop off your head! How dare someone without this awareness call themselves a M's partner? Those without this awareness are just imagining that the person dating me is a greasy flea!"
“…”
-twenty four-
Well, that's true.
-25-
Mr. P swiped away from the ordering interface for the hand cream and calmly opened the backend of the Eternal Life Game program.
