Something heavy slammed onto the table, followed by the sound of high heels, and then the office door swung open. 0
"Finance! Double deductions for Lu Xiaofan being late today! Make a note of it!" 0
Ma Shishi shouted as she entered, then locked the door behind her. 0
"Sit!" Ma Shishi looked at me with a half-smile. 0
"I... I don't dare..." 0
"Sit or don't sit!" Ma Shishi said, exhausted from her scolding, leaning back in the boss's chair and crossing her legs. 0
"Come here!" 0
"Oh." 0
Suddenly, she placed her legs on the table, her black stockings taut and elongated. "Give me a massage." 0
"Huh?" I was taken aback; I wasn't familiar with this kind of request. 0
"Massage my legs, can't you understand?" 0
"I... I only sell my skills, not my body," I replied nervously. 0
In truth, I wasn't nervous at all; after all, I had already rehearsed in the elevator, and that night she had clearly taken the initiative—she was the one who crossed the line! 0
"Pfft..." Ma Shishi burst out laughing, spilling tea all over her pants. 0
It splashed onto my pants as well. 0
"Did your Xiao Lili not argue with you?" She became serious, staring directly at me. 0
"We did argue, but not about that," I admitted honestly. Strangely enough, we hadn't fought about what happened on our wedding night; thinking back on it now felt odd to me. 0
"What could be more important than entering the wrong bridal chamber? Your wife is quite forgiving..." 0
"It's nothing, just a small matter." 0
"A small matter?" Ma Shishi frowned slightly, as if considering something before speaking again. "Let me remind you, that night, Jiao Li left with someone smiling." 0
"What? That's impossible!" 0
This couldn't be true... 0
Jiao Li seemed so innocent and fragile; she never caused trouble and only had eyes for me. How could she do something to betray me? 0
 
 
That day when I went to pick her up, she seemed so helpless. How could she possibly leave with Cui Xiangjun and the others, smiling while I was drunkenly left behind? 0
"You’re lying! You were clearly drunk that day. How could you have seen anything?" 0
"Oh right, I was drunk. Maybe I saw it in a dream," she replied with a slight smirk, her demeanor nonchalant. 0
The more she acted this way, the more anxious I felt. 0
I lay on my bed, remembering how Jiao Li had been pulled away by those classmates, leaving only Ma Shishi in my room... 0
That scene lingered in my mind. 0
"Wait a minute, you weren’t drunk? Then why didn’t you stop them?" 0
"Who said I was drunk?" 0
Ma Shishi rubbed her temples. 0
She always pressed her temples before telling a lie; after all these years of working together, I knew her habits all too well. 0
"Boss, I need to take a leave!" 0
This was my last resort. 0
"Hmm? For how many days?" 0
Ma Shishi straightened up, arms crossed over her chest, exuding an air of authority. 0
"Ten days for my honeymoon." 0
"The company is so busy; if you take leave, I’ll be swamped! No way I'm granting that." 0
"According to Article 51 of the Labor Law..." 0
"Stop! Don’t recite it. If you’re not drunk, then what’s your problem? Ask me quickly!" 0
Ma Shishi nearly flipped the table. 0
"Why didn’t you stop them?" 0
"Come on! If she was being forced, I would definitely call the police! They were both willing participants; how could I intervene? I'm not Superman!" 0
"Alright, second question: if you weren’t drunk, why did you sleep with me?" 0
 
 
Ma Shishi rolled her eyes as I looked up and whistled at the chandelier. 0
"I’m happy to!" 0
In truth, I was quite pleased as well. 0
I had been with her since the company opened, working alongside her for these past few years. 0
When I was with Jiao Li, I always made concessions and tolerated her, but with Ma Shishi, we were more like partners who could talk about anything. 0
Except for the need to maintain a superior-subordinate relationship at work. 0
Ma Shishi was two years younger than me, young, beautiful, and wealthy. She was assertive during negotiations but relied on me for business matters. 0
This gradually led me to entertain some inappropriate thoughts. 0
But after all, she was my boss, so I dared not think too much about it. 0
Then Jiao Li appeared, and Ma Shishi began to grow distant with me. 0
"The third question..." 0
"Are you done? Don’t push your luck!" 0
Ma Shishi had already picked up her folder, ready to throw it at me in the next moment. 0
