Bad women are always eyeing me covetously.

But Xi Lan's extraordinary intuition made her subconsciously turn her head to look at the person behind her.

"What's wrong, sweetie?"

Jade's expression changed in an instant, but she still showed a gentle smile as she faced Xi Lan.

"Ah, no, nothing." Xi Lan scratched her cheek in confusion, then turned her head back to continue observing the Emerald Lady and her little home.

The look in Xi Lan's eyes, like she was being stared at by a carnivore, sent a chill down her spine.

But when she turned around, Lady Emerald was still just as gentle.

Hmm... it really is still a problem on my side, isn't it?

Xi Lan, who had never doubted Jade, simply took the matter as her own delusion.

After exploring the interior of the house, the next step was to look at the furniture and have someone come and tidy up the rooms.

This almost used up the little vacation time that Xilan and Feicui had left.

After everything was almost done, the last few hours of this vacation time came.

Sitting in the restaurant, Xi Lan sipped her tea milk through a straw and sighed, "The holiday is coming to an end so easily."

"I'm so reluctant to part with it..."

"Be careful not to have trouble sleeping at night if you drink too much tea or milk."

Jade, now officially back at work, showed no sign of reluctance. Holding a menu, she appeared to have just ordered.

The hotel room has been checked out. After this dinner, Xi Lan and Emerald will return to the ship and roam the galaxy.

"But before you leave, wouldn't you like to say goodbye to your friends properly?"

Emerald gracefully crossed her legs, then handed the menu to Xi Lan, smiling as she reminded her, "Well, I've already told Xing and the others on the terminal that we're leaving Luofu. It seems they had to go back to Belloberg to take care of something, so they can't see us off for now."

“Belloburg, ah, that city covered in ice and snow, I remember... that planet seems to owe the company a lot of money.”

Emerald toyed with the cup in her hand: "Perhaps Little Yelena will make a trip to that planet."

"That kid is too busy. It seems like he hasn't had a single holiday."

Xi Lan obediently put down her tea and milk, took the menu, only to find that all the dishes she liked had been ordered by Emerald.

"It's more accurate to say that all ten members of Shi Xin are very busy. Each of them has their own things to do."

Emerald rested her chin on her hand, smiling broadly, seemingly unconcerned about the fact that she had inadvertently added invisible work for her colleagues.

I don't know whether it's a good thing or a bad thing that I didn't join the company.

However, Xi Lan has never liked being ordered around.

But the Emerald Lady is an exception.

So she's been working under Ms. Emerald's command ever since, essentially as a debt collector, or more like her personal secretary.

Xi Lan is responsible for handling matters that Lady Jade cannot or is too lazy to handle.

However, the fact that Xi Lan had a longer vacation than her boss was simply because Emerald was spoiling her.

Otherwise, whose secretary gets more comfortable rest than their boss?

"When we get back to the ship, you should give me some work to do. I feel so lazy from being idle all the time."

Xi Lan subtly touched her lower abdomen.

"Your little belly is showing."

"Hmm, so chubby, it feels nice to hold, doesn't it?" Emerald could certainly tell that her little fox had gained quite a bit of weight during her vacation.

It's much better than before when he looked like he was about to die from overwork.

"Sometimes, it's also important to balance work and rest."

"I should say that to you too, hmm? Ms. Emerald, who isn't resting properly?" Xi Lan smiled and narrowed her eyes, looking directly at the person next to her without any fear on this matter.

Faced with this problem, Emerald immediately shifted her attention, showing a rare vulnerable demeanor in front of Xi Lan.

Every time this issue comes up, Xiao Xilan exudes a very strong aura of pressure.

When Xi Lan saw that the person was unusually escaping reality, she just chuckled a few times and did not choose to continue the conversation.

After finishing their meal at the restaurant, Xi Lan and Fei Cui successfully ended their last day of vacation.

Looking at the bed in the lounge on the ship, which she hadn't returned to in a long time, Xi Lan seemed quite happy as she threw herself onto the bedding.

She greedily inhaled the mixed scent of irises and milk, which truly made her feel a little more at ease.

It felt like returning to a safe and comforting home.

Its tail wagged happily behind it.

But why didn't the jade return...?

"Sigh, busy person..." Xi Lan rested her face on the pillow, recalling the woman's retreating figure as she walked towards the office without saying a word when she first entered the ship.

There is still some loneliness.

She lowered her eyes in disappointment, having thought that Ms. Emerald would stay with her for another night.

But judging from the results, it seems that it's not possible.

Xi Lan idly scrolled through her device, looking at the messages posted by everyone on her WeChat Moments, her eyes still filled with envy.

Until that gaming buddy introduced her to that friend, who inexplicably sent her a strange message.

[Forget about her: Do you know how to seduce someone? Ideally, the kind that makes someone's heart soften.]

Xi Lan was stunned for a moment, and only after looking at the other person's profile picture did she recognize them.

Is this person heartbroken or something?

Xi Lan didn't consider the possibility that she was the reason.

Faced with this question, I hesitated for a while, and after racking my brains for all the knowledge in my mind, I kindly sent a message to the other party this time.

[On vacation, absolutely no overtime: Ah... I don't know what the situation is like on your end, but if it were me...]

[During my vacation, I absolutely will not work overtime: I'll probably let myself get soaked in the rain, then pretend to be pitiful and knock on her door; she'll definitely soften.]

There was a moment of silence on the other end before a slow reply came through.

[Forgot Her: I see. Thank you for the suggestion, little one. I'll use it sometime.]

"Silly girl." On the other end of the terminal, Kafka smiled gently, a rare sight for her.

Then, her slender fingers pressed on the screen, saving the message that Xi Lan had personally told her about the method.

She would use a little bit on Xi Lan (laughs).

"Sister Xilan! I'm here! Did you miss me?"

Upon meeting her, Topa acted like a child in front of Xilan, excitedly rushing into the arms of this fox lady.

Not being prepared, Xi Lan barely managed to hold Topa in her arms, and even subconsciously took several steps back.

Zhang Zhang, on the other hand, obediently huddled at Xi Lan's feet, instead of rushing forward like her master.

I miss you so much.

With a smile, Xi Lan steadily wrapped her arms around Topa's waist before putting her down from her embrace.

"Why didn't you tell me you were coming? I could have informed Ms. Emerald."

She looked at Topa with affection and reached out to tidy up the slightly disheveled strands of hair on Topa's cheek.

"Because I really wanted to see Sister Xilan, and it just so happens that I wanted to add some fox elements before my business trip~" She cleverly held Xilan's hand and rubbed her chubby cheek against the other's palm.

Meanwhile, Topana's free hand was busy stroking Xilan's tail.

Such an obvious intention left her somewhat helpless.

"You like my tail that much?" She chuckled. "If I didn't have a tail, would you still like to stick by my side like this?"

“Sister Xilan is Sister Xilan~ I like her even without a tail and ears!” Topa said earnestly, but the hand that was touching her tail was quite serious.

Xi Lan chuckled a few times, but couldn't resist pinching the person's chubby cheeks.

"Alright, alright, I'm just teasing you. If I remember correctly, you're going to Belloberg next to collect the debt and sign the terms?"

"Well, this task was originally meant for someone else, but I thought it looked quite interesting, so I took it on."

"Really? When do you plan to leave?"

"No rush, I've already finished all the work I had accumulated beforehand, all in preparation for this business trip!"

I still want to spend more time with Sister Xilan.

Toppa looked at Xilan, who was smiling gently at him, and for some reason, he still didn't choose to say those words.

"Overtime... Sigh, although I know you're all very busy, Ms. Emerald, I don't want to say much. Even you need to take care of your health."

When it comes to this matter, Xi Lan is like a mother who worries about her children's health, and she can't stop talking about it.

After he finished nagging, Topa subconsciously yawned, and under Xi Lan's amused gaze, he laughed a few times sheepishly.

"I'm sorry... Sister Xilan, I haven't been getting enough rest these past few days."

You could have fooled them with makeup... but you still got caught?

She lowered her head like a child who had done something wrong, ready to continue listening to Xi Lan's nagging.

The next second, that warm palm patted Topa's head, just like when she was a child, making her look like she was enjoying it.

"Let me take you to your room to rest, Yelena. You need to be well-rested before you start work."

Xi Lan withdrew her hand from stroking the other's head, and then more naturally took Topa's hand.
