I am the old, fiery-faced man from the senior department.

"You too, Dr. Kal'tsit. Remember to eat well."

"..."

Only after the dragon had left did the lynx doctor withdraw his gaze from the dragon.

Gazing at the tea in the cup, a faint sigh escaped in an instant.

"You are truly... hopeless."

[A corridor somewhere on Rhodes Island]

During the day, carrying the food and sake he bought from the cafeteria, he stopped in front of a painting.

In the little nest he had drawn himself, the artist had just woken up from a dream.

"Waaah~!"

Xi stretched lazily, her bluish-white tail swaying gently.

It seems like it's a nice day today, so I guess I can sleep a little longer.

It seems a new movie has arrived at the purchasing department. Should we go and pick it up now?

Ugh! Never mind, I'll talk about it this afternoon.

Xi pulled the blanket over herself and snuggled into bed, snoring contentedly.

but……

Xi seemed to think she had just caught a glimpse of something.

The bright rainbow-colored eyes slowly moved across, and gradually came into view the unwashed dishes from last night, the half-finished painting, the DVD used to play movies, and a bright daylight.

Hmm, I thought there was something extra, but it turns out it's just a little devil.

Xi breathed a sigh of relief.

Hmm... just a little brat...

"!!!"

Xi slowly turned her head and looked at Bai Zhou, who was leaning on his side, smiling at her. She, who was still lying in bed, suddenly sat up.

When did you arrive?

"While the gentleman was still asleep."

Looking at Xi, who resembled a startled rabbit, Bai Zhou's eyes were filled with a loving smile.

"Waaah..."

So... he saw everything?

Finished!

Xi slumped onto the bed, her eyes slowly losing their light.

He saw it all. How disheveled I looked…

"Sir, you stayed up late again last night, didn't you?"

He tapped the movie tape gently, his smile unchanged, but a hint of dissatisfaction crept into his voice.

"Ugh... I only stayed up an hour late... That movie was such a classic, if I hadn't watched it before going to sleep... Ugh..."

Xi wanted to argue, but when she saw Bai Zhou's smile, her voice involuntarily weakened.

"I'll go to bed on time from now on, don't be angry..."

Are you angry?

Bai Zhou slowly got up and walked towards her.

"How could I be angry with my husband? I just feel that I failed to take good care of him, and I shouldn't have left him."

As Bai Zhou slowly approached, Xi shrank back, bracing herself against the bed to try and retreat, but Bai Zhou caught her long tail.

"Let...let go..."

Having her weakness exposed, Xi frantically raised one foot to kick, but Bai Zhou caught it and held it in his hand just the same way.

"Waaah..."

The intense heat emanated from the soles of her feet and her tail, and she didn't know how to describe the feeling of shame.

"Sir, you said..."

During the day, he released Xi's tail, gently pulled her bare foot with his right hand, and Xi fell into his arms.

He embraced her slender waist, gazed into her bright rainbow-colored eyes, and gently leaned down in the daytime.

"Disobedient children...shouldn't they be punished properly?"

The white-blue evening tail that was hanging to the ground was hooked up by the black dragon tail and slowly wrapped from the tip of the tail to the end.

"Chirp~...I haven't washed up yet..."

"Sir, you know how to use magic to cleanse your body, don't you?"

Xi's tail is soft, her tongue is soft, and her body is soft.

"Is that enough...is that enough...?"

Xi didn't know how long the kiss lasted, until she felt a little dizzy.

Although kisses are sweet, who would curl their tail while kissing?

"Not enough, sir. It's never enough."

He held Xi and laid her down on the bed, showing no intention of letting go of her at all.

He wanted to spend the whole day with Xi.

However, there is still a long time ahead, so there is no need to rush.

"Sir, come and have breakfast... well, I should say lunch."

"It's not that late."

Looking at Bai Zhou's teasing expression, Xi bit his throat in dissatisfaction, but because she used too little force, it was more like a light kiss than a bite.

Bai Zhou even licked Xi's ear tip with a delightful gesture, causing Xi's entwined tail to tighten even more.

"Quickly prepare some warm water for me, I need to wash up."

Having failed to get revenge, Xi pushed Bai Zhou's chest and started ordering him around.

"Alright, as you wish, sir. However..."

Bai Zhou loosened his grip on Xi, but did not get up as she had asked.

He raised his finger and pointed to his lips, then smiled at her in the daytime.

"gentlemen."

"Really..."

Xi gently shook her head.

"Not now, let's talk about it after we wash up."

"Hmm, okay."

Even though he didn't get what he wanted, Bai Zhou wasn't disappointed. He smiled and got up to prepare warm water for Xi to wash up.

"You naughty Ah Xi, you always bully me... How come you don't say a word when you're with that guy Nian?"

Xi muttered to herself as she dressed.

However, the tip of its tail, which was shaking happily, did not seem to be showing any resentment.

A moment later, Bai Zhou Wei Xi set out the bowls, chopsticks, and food, and asked her about the day's plans.

"Sir, where are we going today? Or are you planning to stay here all day?"

Xi didn't answer, but instead asked him:

"What brings you to my place?"

"Because I miss my husband."

Peel a crab open, separating the meat and roe and placing them on a plate, as Bai Zhou would naturally reply.

"I enjoy being with my husband."

"...You've said these things to Nian too, haven't you?"

Xi ate some crab meat expressionlessly, seemingly unaffected by Bai Zhou's words.

"No, I only told the gentleman."

With a flick of its tail, it wrapped around the mischievous foot under the table, and by daylight, it had peeled the last crab.

"But sir, how come you've been stuck in one place all these years? Well, now you're in two places."

"Didn't you say you were going to come find me?"

Xi looked at him, a hint of resentment flashing in her eyes. The leg under the table gently wiggled, trying to pull its foot out, but it was tightly wrapped by the tail, and in the end, it had to use its own tail to pull its foot back.

"But the gentleman also promised to come find me."

During the day, Bai scooped up a spoonful of crab roe and offered it to Xi's lips.

"I... um... I want to eat the crab leg meat."

Unable to get anywhere with her, Xi decisively changed the subject.

"it is good."

Picking up a bit of crab meat, I slowly fed it to Xi during the day.

"Alright, sir, you still haven't answered me where we're going today."

After finishing the food he had brought during the day, he asked again.

"Um... Ah Xi, could you go to the purchasing department and pick up the new movie that just arrived? I still have some paintings to finish."

Xi found a good way to be lazy.
