On how PhDs become human evil

"Oh? Is that so? I'm really sorry... How about I give them a good beating?"

"Thank you for your kindness, but I've already made the necessary plans. — How many identity documents do I need?"

"One is enough. She wants to stay at the corporate level, while Cecilia and Kiana will stay during the Daihasei Festival."

"It should be finished in an hour. Just in case, I'll ask around. I hope no more of your wife will come. If she does, I'll get everything done for you in one go."

"I don't think so. My wives have their own things to do. Thanks."

After hanging up the phone, Bai Jie sighed heavily and smacked the woman on the head with a hint of annoyance: "Thanks to you, I owe the chairman another favor. You used to be so easy for me, how did you become like this?"

"After Yorktown's encouragement, I've decided to stop hiding my feelings for you, Commander, and take the initiative!"

"You're being too proactive!"

Bai Jie felt extremely exhausted.

An hour ago, after the company rushed into the airport with Cecilia and Kiana, Bai Jie found himself in a battleground between the two sides.

On one side were Kelissa, Limeel, and Livian. Upon discovering that her brother-in-law had a wife other than her sister, and wanting to make things more interesting, Limeel deliberately acted very intimately with Bai Jie, even dragging the innocent Livian into it.

Seeing this, our Miss Enterprises naturally objected. If Bai Jie hadn't stopped her, she probably would have demonstrated what it means to be "equal under LuckyE".

Besides the company, Kiana was happy to suddenly have three more mothers (actually only one). On the one hand, she was happy that she could get more New Year's money, and on the other hand, she was indignant that her father neglected her mother. She joined the company in criticizing Bai Jie and even brought up Bai Jie's past dark history!

This is truly a daughter; she doesn't hold back when it comes to tricking her father.

After more than twenty minutes of chaotic fighting, Bai Jie, unable to bear it any longer, finally stood up for himself and knocked down Enterprise, Kiana, Kelissa, and Limeel with a flick of his forehead—although he was immediately scolded by Cecilia for hitting Kiana.

Now, the group has gathered at a family-run restaurant to have lunch.

But before that—

"What's going on over there...?"

Bai Jie frowned as he looked at Cecilia and Kellysa at the other table.

The meeting went well at first, but when they came to the family restaurant to choose seats, the two of them started arguing, both wanting to sit next to Bai Jie. Of course, as you can see, the two fought over the other, and the businesswoman successfully took the seat next to Bai Jie.

After that, Cecilia and Kelissa sat down at a table next to each other. They had been smiling at each other for the past ten minutes, and even exuded a cold aura that kept strangers away. Anyone who passed by them would probably shiver.

"Dad, your wife's throwing a tantrum, aren't you going to do anything about it?" Kiana asked nonchalantly while eating her ice cream.

Bai Jie glanced at his daughter and said, "It's easy for you to talk when you're not the one suffering. If I were to chime in, they would definitely turn their anger on me. I guess my back will be hurting again tonight."

"It's okay, Commander, you can sleep with me tonight!"

The company patted its chest in satisfaction.

Then she felt two gazes fall on her back, as if two sharp swords pierced straight through her body, making her tremble.

Cecilia smiled gently, like a warm spring breeze: "Oh dear, Enterprise, sneaking out is wrong, you know."

“My local wife hasn’t even said anything yet, how dare you, a guy who hasn’t even reached base, cut in line?” Kellysa retorted.

However, our female corporate employee was not intimidated at all!

With a snort, Enterprise looked at Kellysa: "If we're talking about who came first, I was the one who arrived before you. Sharing a bed with the Commander is a common occurrence, but my modesty as a woman has prevented me from taking that step. If anyone cut in line, it was you!"

"But I am a local wife."

"She's just a woman who ended up with the Commander because of an accident. When it comes to the depth of our feelings, the Commander and I are worth dozens of aircraft carrier decks!"

“I am a local wife.”

"Hmm... What are you so smug about, you old woman from the Royal Pervert Group?"

"You...! You dare say that again!"

"Ha, the Prince of Wales likes to touch breasts, the Royal Ark is a perverted destroyer, Queen Elizabeth's majesty is like a file, and then there's the Illustrious-class destroyers and the maid squad... You dare say your Britain isn't—ouch! Commander, what are you doing?"

The company representative, who was giving a lengthy speech, was suddenly struck by Bai Jie's karate chop, leaving him clutching his head.

Pointing to Belfast sitting next to Kiana, Bai Jie said, "You're hopeless, just wait to die—Belfast, don't kill her for my sake."

“Yes, Mr. Bai Jie.” Belfast stood up with an extremely kind smile, grabbed Enterprise’s tie, and dragged her out.

"Belfast, let me go!"

"That won't do, Mr. Enterprise. I think it's necessary to have a proper discussion with you regarding your insulting remarks about the royal family."

"Hmm, that was just—"

"It's pointless to say more."

Then came a series of crackling sounds, and occasionally you could hear screams from the companies, but that was probably just your imagination.

How could a company with the strongest aircraft carriers possibly be easily defeated by a light cruiser? Right?

As the company was dragged out of Belfast, the seat next to Bai Jie naturally became empty. Staring at that spot, Cecilia and Kellysa rose almost simultaneously—

"Oh my, Miss Kelly, are you sitting for too long and want to stand up and stretch?"

"How could that be? I just saw my husband sitting alone and looked lonely, so I wanted to go and keep him company."

“Then don’t bother—Kiana.” Cecilia called for reinforcements. “Sit next to your father. Your seat is for Mom.”

Kiana dared not disobey her mother's order, and quickly moved from the seat opposite Bai Jie to the seat next to him. Cecilia also quickly sat down opposite Bai Jie: "Alright, darling, sorry to have kept you waiting. What should we eat? How about this couple's set meal?"

Seeing this, Kellysa was furious! Even if you're Bai Jie's first wife, you can't treat your younger sister like this!

At that moment, Kiana muttered, whether intentionally or unintentionally, "Blonde girls are always the losers."

Kellysa suddenly felt as if she had been shot in the chest.

P.S.: This research ship is really hard to grind for! Millions of experience points, how long will it take to finish?

Section 542, Chapter 41: Misaka Mikoto in Danger

Amidst the chaos, lunch finally ended. At the insistence of Bai Jie, the head of the family, Kellysa took her mother and sisters to explore Academy City, while Enterprise and Kiana were taken care of by Belfast, arranged by Cecilia.

In other words, now, Bai Jie and Cecilia are enjoying a long-awaited time alone together.

Bai Jie casually found a bench to sit on and sighed heavily: "Honestly, we can't even have a peaceful lunch. Cecilia, what's with you arguing with Kelissa?"

“Even I get jealous,” Cecilia said, twirling a strand of her hair with her fingers. “While I don’t object to you finding another wife, I’m a woman too. I can’t just stand by and watch my husband have an affair and accept it.”

"That's true... but I've had almost ten wives and you're only getting jealous now?"

Cecilia's expression instantly became fascinating.

Yeah, Bai Jie's wife is almost in her twenties, and you're jealous now? Too late.

"You're almost fifty years old, so please stop doing things like getting jealous that only little girls do, okay? Well... although it was definitely my fault."

“So you do know it’s your fault, huh…” Cecilia sighed. “I really don’t know how you attract so many women. You’re clearly a womanizer.”

"I think I've been very restrained. I'm helpless about this natural tendency to attract women, but I'm also quite glad that I have this kind of constitution."

With a slight smile, Bai Jie put his arm around Cecilia. "If I didn't flirt with women and wasn't a womanizer, you'd probably be someone else's wife by now, and I'd have nowhere to cry."

"You..."

Cecilia pinched Bai Jie's nose and leaned on his shoulder.

"Forget it, it's not the first time. If you get jealous every time, I'll probably die of jealousy. But as I said yesterday, Huijie is in a bad mood right now, so you'd better coax her a bit, your wife."

"Ah... I know."

Bai Jie really didn't know how to talk to Chen about it.

Although they weren't the first to get their marriage certificate, Bai Jie always regarded Chen as the most important person in his life, and Cecilia and the others felt the same way, always placing Chen in the position of the legal wife. It could be said that Chen was the mistress of the Bai family.

Now, without the mistress's knowledge, Bai Jie, the male head of the household, has found another wife. Although it was unintentional, it was still a marriage of convenience. Chen, being a jealous woman, even though she hasn't been as jealous as before, will definitely be jealous when the time comes. When Bai Jie brought Himeragi Yukina and Aiba Asagi home before, Chen didn't say anything on the spot, but that night Bai Jie was tormented by her, almost triggering his immortality. You can imagine how fierce Chen's jealousy can be.

"Forget it, I'll take responsibility for my own actions. I'll explain to Chen later, and I'll accept any punishment she wants," Bai Jie said. "Alright, let's not talk about that anymore. Let's go sightseeing somewhere; there are so many fun places in Academy City—"

"Whoosh—!"

Before Bai Jie could finish speaking, a strong force suddenly came from the back of his neck, dragging him away.

"Found it! Found it! My victory condition!"

Misaka Mikoto, who was grabbing Bai Jie by the back of his collar, burst into loud laughter.

As Cecilia watched Bai Jie being dragged away from her by a little girl, her kind smile gradually faded. A flurry of white flowers appeared in her hand, and the Black Abyss White Flower materialized there.

"I need to give my husband a good talking-to."

————————————————————————————

On the green grass of a sports field, Bai Jie lay on it, gazing at the sky.

"What's wrong? You've only been dragged along the way, you can't not get up, can you?"

Misaka Mikoto appeared before Bai Jie.

Sitting up from the grass, Bai Jie asked, "May I ask, what was your reason for dragging me here all the way?"

"It's a race using borrowed objects! At least remember the competition your own school's students are participating in, teacher."

Race against time using objects.

A race where you borrow a designated item and bring it to the finish line involves an additional step compared to a regular race: finding the item. Also, if the item is in the hands of a third party, you need to obtain the third party's permission before you can reach the finish line together.

"Is what you want to borrow in my possession?"

"No, what I want to borrow is [someone who has given me something]. You gave me a belt, so I came to you."

"So I'm actually an object?!"

Bai Jie was speechless. Did Academy City's obstacle course race actually have something this amazing? What if the thing to borrow was a bank ATM? Did the contestants have to rob a bank?

"Why don't you go find Shirai Kuroko? She must have given you something before."

“Kuroko was on disciplinary committee patrol at that time, a bit far from here, and you just happened to be by the roadside, so naturally she came looking for you,” Misaka Mikoto explained. “By the way, you seemed to be with someone earlier, were they your friends?”

“No, my wife,” Bai Jie said. “She came to Academy City today, and I showed her around. By the way, we were just enjoying a wonderful time together. If you hadn’t interfered, we would have had a long-awaited couple’s date… So, how are you going to make it up to me, Misaka?”

Hearing Bai Jie's tone, Misaka Mikoto finally realized that she had ruined Bai Jie's plans, but what concerned her even more was the identity of the person Bai Jie had just mentioned.

"You're saying that white-haired beauty is your wife? She looks like she's only in her early twenties! And didn't you already marry Teacher Kelissa?"
