Boss, Please Go Easy On Me (GL) - Chapter 28
“Em… embarrassing.” Yan Xiaomi lowered her head, her voice weak. She glanced up at An Yao, who had a cold expression and looked quite angry. She immediately lowered her head again and whispered, “I was planning to cut this hair when it grew out. But then, as I was cutting, I remembered that CEO An likes to stroke my hair, so I stopped… and then… and then it ended up like this.”
An Yao hadn’t paid much attention to her hair before, but now that she was close, she looked carefully. It was long and short, patchy, and very funny. She couldn’t hold back and laughed.
Yan Xiaomi secretly glanced at her, feeling a little better. She quickly admitted her mistake, “CEO An, I was wrong. I won’t dare to do it again…”
“Wrong about what?” An Yao asked her, then turned and started walking outside. Yan Xiaomi quickly followed, whispering behind her, “I shouldn’t have had s3x while drunk, I shouldn’t have been so bold, I shouldn’t have… defiled your purity…”
“And what else?” An Yao turned around to ask her. Yan Xiaomi was following closely with her head down and didn’t notice. She almost stepped on An Yao, and when she tried to step aside, she nearly fell. An Yao quickly grabbed her, and with a gentle pull, whether intentional or unintentional, Yan Xiaomi bumped into her arms and was held in an embrace.
“I, I, I…” Yan Xiaomi dared not move. She felt like An Yao’s hand on her waist was electric. The current traveled up her spine to her brain, and she was instantly dazed.
“Go on.” An Yao held her, not letting go, her voice cool and emotionless in her ear, “I’m listening.”
When she was here, she felt talkative at times, asking questions, and doing things in a noisy, jumpy manner. When she was gone, life felt too quiet. Working alone, leaving work alone, not even having someone to talk to. She wasn’t sure if she felt lonely because she missed her, or if she missed her because she was lonely.
In short, she had thought of Yan Xiaomi many times during this period, and was very worried about where she had gone. Fortunately, she was back, safe and sound, and still so foolish, blaming all the mistakes on herself. Alas… truly…
“I,” Yan Xiaomi swallowed. It took a while for her body to relax, “I shouldn’t have knowingly made a mistake, committed internal theft, and fled out of guilt. Actually, I…” She paused, and Yan Xiaomi’s voice became lower. She gently hugged An Yao, “I kept thinking about coming to find you and begging for your forgiveness, but I was afraid, afraid you would be angry, afraid you wouldn’t want to see me again in this lifetime. I’m a coward. I… I didn’t dare to come.”
“And now?” An Yao asked, “Why do you dare to come now?”
“I missed you.” Yan Xiaomi whispered, “I missed you a lot.”
Her voice was slightly nasal, soft and delicate, drilling into An Yao’s ear. It felt like a feather, tickling her heart. An Yao released her and saw her hastily wiping her eyes and sniffing.
“You crybaby.”
An Yao took her hand and walked towards the garage. Yan Xiaomi was astonished to see An Yao holding her hand. She quickly wiped away her tears and followed. An Yao let go of her when they reached the car, placing both hands on the car door, trapping her in between.
Yan Xiaomi was incredibly nervous. She couldn’t retreat, so she tried to shrink downwards.
“Stand still.”
An Yao’s voice was neither loud nor severe. Yan Xiaomi obediently stood still with her head down, daring not to look at her, her hands constantly twisting, agonizing, and nervous. What exactly was An Yao planning to do to her?
An Yao looked at Yan Xiaomi for a while. Her cheeks were flushed, she had gained a little weight, she looked chubby and pouting, biting her lip in a conflicted manner. The long side of her uncut hair hung low, covering half her face. An Yao reached out and tucked it behind her ear, then cupped her face and gently lifted it.
Yan Xiaomi’s heart trembled. She kept her eyes down, still not looking at her, looking like a martyr facing death. An Yao suddenly leaned closer and asked in her ear, “Yan Xiaomi, do you like me?”
The smiling voice was enchanting and ambiguously drilled into Yan Xiaomi’s ear. She suddenly opened her eyes, raised both hands in a gesture of surrender, and hurriedly cried out, “No, no, no! Your humble servant dares not, dares not have any inappropriate thoughts about you.”
Yan Xiaomi was panting heavily, afraid An Yao wouldn’t believe her if she was too late. She truly didn’t dare to let An Yao know her ridiculous thoughts. An Yao didn’t even care for a woman as beautiful and sexy as Li Wei Sa, so how could she possibly like her, the scumbag who had defiled An Yao?
“You dare not like me, yet you dare to sleep with me?” An Yao’s voice suddenly turned cold. She buried her face in Yan Xiaomi’s neck and gently bit her. Yan Xiaomi’s eyes widened. She grabbed An Yao’s arm and softly called out, “CEO, CEO An…”
“You dare not like me, so why did you miss me?”
An Yao gently licked her earlobe. Yan Xiaomi’s mind froze, completely unable to process what was happening. She could only gasp, holding An Yao’s hand tighter and tighter out of nervousness.
“Kiss me.”
An Yao hugged her and whispered in her ear. It sounded very similar to that night, incredibly seductive. Yan Xiaomi’s legs went weak. If she hadn’t been leaning against the car door, she would have slid down.
“CEO, CEO An.” Yan Xiaomi found it hard to believe what she heard was real. An Yao hadn’t been drinking today, right? She sniffed. No alcohol smell. “You, you just said… said kiss… kiss me?”
“You can invite me too.”
An Yao gently lifted her chin and kissed her lips. Yan Xiaomi instantly stiffened, not knowing what to do. An Yao hugged her. Yan Xiaomi let go of her hands, suddenly unsure where to put them. Feeling An Yao’s gentle kiss, she dreamily hugged An Yao. This must be a dream, it must be a dream…
“Mmm…” Yan Xiaomi frowned slightly when An Yao bit her. An Yao licked her lips again. The pain on her lips gradually disappeared. An Yao released her, “This is not a dream.”
“Actually…” An Yao touched her lips with her finger, “I really liked you kissing me.”
Seeing her stunned, An Yao curved a smile at the corner of her mouth, walked to the other side, opened the door, and got into the car.
Yan Xiaomi was still frozen in place, leaning against the door to keep herself steady. Her legs were honestly a little… a little weak.
This is not a dream.
I really liked you kissing me.
Yan Xiaomi couldn’t help but pinch her arm. It really hurt. It really wasn’t a dream.
The anxiety in her heart instantly vanished, replaced by joy. She stood by the door and laughed foolishly for a long time.
“Are you planning to stand by the door and laugh until dark?” An Yao couldn’t help but find her silly laughter amusing.
Yan Xiaomi hurriedly opened the door and got into the car. Once inside, she kept looking at An Yao. After watching for a while, she couldn’t help but laugh again. She turned her back to look out the window, and after a while, still couldn’t stop laughing.
An Yao was infected by her sneaky laughter and started laughing too, but then felt it was too silly and tried to hold it in. She held it for a while but really wanted to laugh. An Yao felt she was going crazy. Sure enough, spending time with low-IQ people was contagious.
The car drove onto the street for a while before the two finally stopped laughing.
“CEO An,” Yan Xiaomi turned to call her, leaning back and poking her back, “Why?”
“Why what?” An Yao turned her head to glance at her. Yan Xiaomi blushed again, turned her back to her, and whispered, “Why did you kiss me?”
“Do you also want to ask, why did I like you kissing me?”
“How did you know?” Yan Xiaomi turned to look at her again.
“You ask too many questions.” An Yao smiled and glanced out the window, feeling a little embarrassed.
Yan Xiaomi couldn’t figure it out. After a while, she still wanted to ask, “But why, exactly?”
“Shut up.” An Yao sighed softly. Why was this person’s intelligence so difficult to improve? As for why, it was obvious to anyone with eyes, and she was still asking why!
“Oh…” Yan Xiaomi looked a little innocent. She poked her back again, stared at her for a while, then turned to face her, and after a while, turned back around.
“Even grilled squid isn’t flipped as often as you are.” An Yao didn’t look at her. She drove the car into the garage, turned off the engine, and unfastened her seatbelt, “Get out of the car.”
An Yao walked ahead, and Yan Xiaomi followed like a child who had made a mistake. When familiar colleagues saw her hair, some couldn’t help but laugh. An Yao glanced at them coldly, and they quickly scurried off to work.
Walking into the office, An Yao turned to face her, reached out to lift her chin, then put her hand behind her head, gathered her hair, and looked from left to right.
Yan Xiaomi dared not move, only moving her eyeballs up, down, left, and right, unable to see anything around her.
“Hold your hair.”
An Yao told her to hold her hair, bundled as much as possible. She looked at it from the front, back, left, and right for a while, “Cut the long side. When it grows to the same length, try long hair.”
An Yao returned to her seat, took her resignation letter from the drawer, and threw it to her, “The letter you wrote. I replied. Take it and read it yourself.”
“Oh,” Yan Xiaomi took the letter, walked a few steps, and then turned to look at An Yao again. She was back to work. Nothing could influence her, she was so strong.
Unlike herself, who was easily flustered and wore her emotions on her sleeve. Sigh, since when did she use idioms so well? She wasn’t even used to it.
An Yao hadn’t given a clear answer about that night, but judging by her expression, she seemed to have forgiven her. Thinking of the kiss, Yan Xiaomi couldn’t help but want to giggle again.
Sitting at her desk, she didn’t bother organizing her things. She quickly tore open the letter and read it.
The content of the resignation letter she wrote was as follows:
—My loyalty can be attested by heaven and earth, witnessed by the sun and moon. Your servant knows not what crime was committed, to be coldly abandoned by Your Majesty. Were it not so, your servant would surely follow you through thick and thin, swearing to follow you to the death. Until the mountains have no edges, the rivers run dry, thunder rumbles in winter, snow falls in summer, and the heavens and earth merge, then, and only then, will your servant dare to part from Your Grace.
What a deeply moving confession, what a passionate sentiment. Yan Xiaomi almost wanted to cry. She quickly rummaged through her drawer. Two other resignation letters lay inside. She opened them and saw, Asiba, she had put the wrong letter in the envelope. The one crumpled into a ball was the real resignation letter!
An Yao, in a perfectly coordinated tone, had annotated a remark on the back: Since my loyal subject is so devoted, I naturally cherish you. I hope you remember the words in this letter. If you disappear without reason for several days and vanish without a trace again, as you did today, next time, I, I will, make, you, pay!
