[Blurb]
Qingque's life motto: If you're not slacking off at work, you're doing it wrong.
That is, until she was transferred to work under Fu Xuan.
Her meticulous boss seemed to have put a surveillance camera on her!
She ducked into the break room to slack off. Fu Xuan knocked. "Qingque, what are you doing?"
She hid in the archive room to take a break. Fu Xuan pushed the door open. "Qingque, care to explain?"
All Qingque could do was smile and admit defeat.
-
Fu Xuan, Chief Executive Officer of the Divination Commission, didn't have the word "careless" in her dictionary.
But then she got a subordinate named Qingque.
She looked sweet and harmless, yet spent every waking moment thinking about how to slack off, as if her greatest ambition in life was to be a couch potato.
And so, from then on, the Divination Commission's daily show became:
"Qingque! Why are you slacking off again!?"
-
Then, one day, a crisis quietly drew near, and Fu Xuan found herself in a difficult situation.
Qingque sighed and slowly revealed her hidden identity.
Fu Xuan put her hands on her hips and frowned. "I knew you were more than you seemed!"
Qingque smiled brightly. "Yes, yes, Lord Diviner knows everything."
From then on, Fu Xuan realized something was wrong with her.
-
One day, Qingque accidentally discovered her boss's feelings and froze in place.
She... likes me?
Usually so calm and unflappable, for the first time she panicked.
Once Fu Xuan realized her feelings had been discovered, she decided she might as well throw caution to the wind.
After a banquet, she pinned Qingque against the wall, her breath warm.
"What makes you think you can say you don't like me!?"
Qingque looked down at her drunken boss in her arms, then finally chuckled.
"Lord Fu Xuan, you love me so much. How could I dare say no?"
