We moved to Golden Courtyard

A wave of joy washed over her, and if she hadn't been nestled in Xu Qi's arms, she probably would have rolled around laughing uncontrollably.

"I, Xu Qi, haven't been working for long, but I've met quite a lot of people and worked for several leaders. Apart from my mentor, you're the only one who's been this kind to me..."

Xu Qi's master? Bronya remembered, it was the man named Xia Ya.

"I'm so scared... scared that I won't do well enough, scared that I won't meet your expectations..."

Perhaps it was fueled by alcohol, or perhaps Xu Qi was genuinely moved to speak.

His voice carried a hint of fear, a fear that tugged at Bronya's heartstrings...

"But I don't have the ability to flatter superiors, so I can only do my best. When I received Rita's call at Mount Taixu, I was actually a little excited, rather than angry."

why?

"I think—I am your sword! I can cut through thorns and brambles for you! I finally have the opportunity to do something really important for you!"

So I've mustered all my strength to bring down Liu Yizhi and Director Yang! I'm not trying to prove anything; I just want to tell you that I, Xu Qi, can solve your problems!

But in the end... it seems like I was just showing off my limited skills before an expert.

No! That's not how it is! Xu Qi, you did very well, you've done more than enough!

Xu Qi held Bronya in his arms, his expression softening yet helpless as he spoke.

"Sometimes I feel like you're very tired. You have to handle everything, take care of the company, and also take care of the animation production. I'm worried that you don't have that much energy."

I said some harsh words to you in the office that day, saying that since you love Allahato so much, you should focus more on fulfilling your supervisory responsibilities...

I'm sorry, I seem to always subconsciously treat you...with a rather harsh attitude.

It is too heavy... but you did the right thing, Xu Qi.

"Speaking of which, you know what? During the shift handover meeting that day, the scene where you insisted on protecting me no matter what... it really moved me to tears. At that moment, I was thinking—"

For Bronya, I'd do anything, even go through fire and water! Foolish, right? It sounds incredibly loyal, but if you heard that, you'd probably think, "How can there still be such a stupid person in this day and age?"

……

Stop talking, Xu Qi, stop talking! If you keep going like this, I really... I really won't be able to hold back my tears...

"I always feel like I'm talking about some very heavy things, but these are all my true feelings. I feel much better after being able to say them out loud, haha. Actually... I still have a lot of little thoughts."

Yes, that's right, let's stop saying such touching things.

“Every time I kiss Bronya, it feels so good, and it feels even better to hold Bronya in my arms, so soft and fleshy, you know? Alicia is pretty much the same as you, they both feel great to the touch.”

Ok?

"Sigh...it's also my fault. I treat you like a boss all the time, but actually...I definitely want to pursue you, right?"

You f***ing...

"But I already have a lot of emotional debts, and sometimes I'm afraid that you won't be with me because of this... That day I planned to confess to you, but you rejected me."

You said you wanted more time to consider it, and I gave you that, but why aren't you ready yet? Isn't that too slow? I'm about to lock you in a dark room and rush you.

What do you mean?!

"Wait a minute... You're already locked in the dark room, why would I urge you to accept my confession? I might as well just start doing it, right? Hehe, Bronya's body smells so good and feels so soft."

Bronya finally couldn't hold back any longer!

With a flushed face, he raised his head and roared at Xu Qi, who looked shocked and bewildered, "Xu Qi! I treated you like a brother, and you wanted to sleep with me?!"

378. What do you take my feelings for Xu Qi as?!

Xu Qi stared blankly at Bronya and blurted out a sentence.

"You...you're not asleep?"

Bronya belatedly realized—oh no! If Xu Qi found out that she wasn't drunk or asleep at all, she'd be dead meat!

Hmm? But it seems pretty good...

But in line with the strategic policy of treating employees well, Bronya cleared her throat and said, "No... I just woke up and heard you talking nonsense here."

That's enough to drive anyone crazy!

Xu Qi covered his face with both hands—he was too ashamed to face anyone now.

Bronya was both amused and exasperated. She pulled Xu Qi's hands away and said, "What's there to be embarrassed about? You just want to sleep with me, right? I know my own charm."

Do you want to hear what you're saying?

Why does she look a bit like a female hooligan?

Bronya thought about it for a moment, and then suddenly felt it made perfect sense—after all, I should be drunk right now! What wouldn't a drunk woman do?

With an extremely frivolous expression, he straddled Xu Qi, then leaned down, pinning Xu Qi's arms with both hands, while simultaneously pressing him against the back of the sofa.

"Um...supervision?"

"You like me a lot?"

He spoke in a childish voice and even let out a burp.

Xu Qi rolled his eyes.

"Otherwise what? Okay Bronya, stop fooling around, you're drunk."

The doting tone in his words was quite obvious, which made Bronya blush.

"I'm not drunk!"

"Mmm, okay, okay, you're not drunk."

So perfunctory...

Bronya suddenly lowered her head and kissed Xu Qi's lips fiercely!

Ah this?

I can't worry about that now. Even though the position is a bit awkward and I'm being pinned down by Bronya, I still have to enjoy it.

Their lips and tongues interacted freely, savoring the beauty that belonged to each other.

The only slightly awkward thing was that, unlike before when I could smell Bronya's fragrance during kisses, this time the smell of alcohol was quite strong.

It feels like...

What they were tasting wasn't Bronya, but rather the wine that Bronya had taken a sip of and then sucked out of her mouth.

Huh? Why do I feel even more excited?

Sure enough, after the kiss, Bronya straightened up, licked her lips, and her expression remained calm, but it revealed a flamboyant and seductive charm.

She twisted her waist, which made Xu Qi's expression change drastically!

"Hmph... You're hard now, aren't you?"

This woman...does she even know what she's doing?!

Xu Qi felt that they couldn't continue like this, or something terrible would happen.

"Bronya, be good, listen to me, get off me now."

Good boy/girl? Obedient?

Bronya found it amusing, but also somewhat delightful.

Over the years, who would speak to her in such a coaxing tone? Treating her like a child isn't the point; the point is the overflowing tenderness in her words.

I love it so much...

Seeing that Bronya remained unmoved, Xu Qi grew anxious and broke free from her grasp, intending to lift her up. However, as soon as he reached out, Bronya grabbed his hand again.

"?"

With another pull, he pressed his hand directly against Bronya's full, rounded chest, through her white shirt.

Bronya?

Just as Xu Qi was about to say something more, Bronya leaned down and kissed him again.

No? You kissed me the moment I spoke, trying to shut me up. What do you mean by that? And this tactic seems kind of familiar...

But there's no way around it; the advantage of a bandit's methods is that as long as you can't beat her, she can do whatever she wants to you, and you can't fight back.

Xu Qi wasn't incapable of defeating Bronya, it's just... um...

I'm enjoying it.

He held Bronya's head in one hand, wrapped the other arm around her waist, and was forced to taste Bronya's cherry lips.

Xu Qi himself also didn't want it to end...

When she straightened up again, Bronya looked at Xu Qi with a mocking expression.

"It seems you don't really want to stop..."

Her slender, jade-like fingers traced a path along Xu Qi's lips, across his neck, and finally to his chest.

Just as he was about to continue, Xu Qi grabbed him.

"Ok?"

Before Bronya could even react, Xu Qi pinned her to the sofa.

Both of them were breathing heavily, and their eyes were burning with desire.

It's time to do it...

A flicker of fear crossed Bronya's eyes; she hesitated... but looking at Xu Qi and remembering his earlier words—oh well, she'd just give in to him.

Let's just say it's like adult men and women, after drinking... you know.

Bronya closed her eyes and quietly awaited Xu Qi's arrival, finally pouring all the essence of her life into her body...

I didn't wear a condom.

I'm too lazy to care anymore...

If she were to get pregnant with Xu Qi's child right away, it wouldn't seem like there would be any problem.

Bronya is afraid of pain... She's heard that a woman's first time is always very painful, and that's what she's afraid of.

……

Their breathing echoed each other in the quiet living room.

However, Bronya waited for a long time, but Xu Qi still did not make any move towards her.

He opened his eyes in confusion, only to see Xu Qi with a mocking expression.

He reached out and pinched Bronya's nose, laughing, "That evens things out."

She then rolled over and straightened her clothes, which had become somewhat disheveled.

Bronya sat up blankly, remained silent for a long time, and then suddenly said, "I'm not drunk."

“I knew… I knew as soon as you woke up…”

Bronya's previously unchanging expression suddenly turned into a smile that was even uglier than a grimace.

So you... don't like me anymore?

"Huh?" Xu Qi turned around in surprise, clearly not expecting Bronya to have such thoughts.

When she saw Bronya showing such an unusually excited expression, she was even more surprised, her eyes widening and her mouth agape.

"Because I've been rejecting you, so... you don't like me anymore?"

……

After Bronya finished speaking, she fell silent, and Xu Qi... did the same.

She slowly lowered her head, her expression returning to its usual calm, as if her intense expression had exhausted her energy.

"Go away..."

Why would you have such a thought?

"Ugh?"

When her words were interrupted, Bronya's heart skipped a beat, not because of the content of Xu Qi's words, but because of his tone—a tone that was a mixture of anger, disappointment, and heartache.
