Chapter 32: Tasks Assigned by the Master
She couldn’t understand what had gone through her mind at that moment. Thinking back to the embarrassing things she had done so obediently and submissively, she could hardly recognize herself.
The restless flame in her heart grew wilder each time she recalled those awkward and shameful moments. That fiery agitation urged her forward, filling her with an eager anticipation for the next encounter.
In a cozy, lived-in apartment spanning just over 90 square meters, the city settled into its quiet night. A young boy slept soundly in one room. Under the warm glow of a desk lamp, a young mother was typing away on her laptop, finishing up a report late into the night. Meanwhile, in another room, an older woman tossed and turned, unable to sleep.
As the day’s busyness gave way to the night’s stillness, Yu Na couldn’t help but revisit her strange experience from earlier. Picking up her phone—again, for what felt like the umpteenth time—she stared at the two large WeChat transfers in her chat window. Though they had been sent under the guise of “compensation,” Yu Na, now in her middle age, knew better than to believe it was just that.
Even though nothing significant had happened between her and the young boy she had met for the first time earlier that day, apart from helping him mend something with her handiwork, her intuition told her he had his sights set on her.
She thought about the 200,000 yuan in debt hanging over her family. Even though her current income meant she could pay it off within a year, the debt remained a constant weight on her household, creating an atmosphere of anxiety and unease.
Her eyes returned to the two transfers in her WeChat app, each for tens of thousands. Could money really come this easily? Should she accept this gift, laden with implications?
Yu Na was deeply torn.
The next morning, regardless of how uneasy others might have felt the night before, Cao Shaoyang woke up refreshed. The events of the previous day had left him in high spirits, and with such a lighthearted mood, he had slept exceptionally well.
He even woke up early, without needing Xiao Ma to come in and call him.
After breakfast, dressed in his school uniform, Cao Shaoyang slung his backpack over his shoulder and headed to school for his morning study session. Meanwhile, Xiao Ma, after finishing her chores, returned to her room to continue working on her nearly overdue art commissions.
Walking to school, Cao Shaoyang couldn’t help but think about his newest little “companion,” the neighbor’s stay-at-home mom. The thought brightened his mood even more.
What might Xiao Chun Jiao be doing right now? Was she still sleeping at home?
What task should he assign to her today?
Should he have her wear lingerie under a trench coat and go out shopping?n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
No, that wouldn’t work! Not only would such a bold task be too much for her to handle right away, but based on their video chats, it was clear that Xiao Chun Jiao didn’t even own such items.
After all, she had essentially been cast out of her former life and had moved near her daughter’s school under the guise of supporting her education. Her household was bare, with only herself and her daughter, who was rarely home, too focused on her studies to notice much.
There’d be no reason for Xiao Chun Jiao to own anything meant to please the man who was about to leave her.
It would be better to start with something simpler. After all, building acceptance is a gradual process.
In the end, Cao Shaoyang decided on a straightforward task for Xiao Chun Jiao. He sent it to her through WeChat.
[Wei Wu the Great]: Xiao Chun Jiao! Here’s your new task for today—wear a long dress without any underwear and head out to work like that!
[Wei Wu the Great]: Of course, as your master, I care about your comfort. If you feel too self-conscious about being overly prominent, you can use adhesive bandages. However, I’ll need to personally inspect and approve them first.
[Wei Wu the Great]: Also, I’ll evaluate your performance and reward you accordingly. Xiao Chunjiu, do your best!
No response came. She was likely still asleep, which wasn’t surprising. Not everyone needed to wake up at the crack of dawn like a stressed-out senior preparing for college entrance exams.
It was just past 6 a.m. Even among the working class, few were up and about this early.
After assigning Xiao Chun Jiao her task, Cao Shaoyang tucked his phone into his backpack. He didn’t bother messaging Aunt An Yu Wei; he didn’t want to disturb her sleep. He knew she’d reach out to him on her own once she woke up.
Besides, Aunt An Yu Wei and Xiao Chun Jiao had different “roles” in his life, and naturally, the way he treated them varied accordingly.
As Cao Shaoyang entered the school grounds, he prepared for another day of pretending to study hard while secretly slacking off.
He also realized that with the college entrance exams approaching, he truly didn’t have the time or energy to “expand his harem.” Time was simply too tight.
Around 7 a.m., just as his first class began, Xiao Chun Jiao sent him a message to check in. Following that were several selfies.
To his surprise, Xiao Chunjiu displayed an exceptional level of obedience. In fact, he had significantly underestimated her willingness to comply.
Not only did she flawlessly complete the task he had assigned, but she had also learned to take the initiative.
Along with photos of herself in a floor-length dress, adhering to the “bare beneath” directive, she sent an additional set after arriving at her dance studio. One of these showed her in a tight yoga outfit, which vividly emphasized her form, leaving nothing to the imagination.
