Who Says the Director Is Frigid? (Lily ABO) - Chapter 8

Inside the conference room, the design department was discussing the new Mother’s Day collection scheduled for release three months later.

As the department’s only office clerk—and glorified gofer—Xu Mengyan also had to attend and record the meeting minutes.

Bai Jingbing, who had been in her position for half a month, was listening to the designer responsible for the Mother’s Day collection explain his preliminary concept.

There was no need to record this portion in detail. However, Xu Mengyan could not openly announce that she intended to daydream. She pretended to listen attentively, looking in Director Bai’s direction while occasionally typing something unimportant on her laptop.

The laptop concealed how openly Xu Mengyan was studying Bai Jingbing.

Everyone else was focused entirely on the presentation. Moreover, Xu Mengyan was merely the design department’s resident idler—or so the designers believed—so no one paid attention to her.

She could therefore stare directly at Bai Jingbing and “admire” her.

At the office, Bai Jingbing always behaved so properly. Whenever she wore a cold expression and concentrated seriously on her work…

There was no denying that she struck the heart-shaped bullseye inside Xu Mengyan perfectly.

After the welcome banquet, Xu Mengyan had gone home and analyzed why she had accepted Bai Jingbing’s ridiculous claim that she needed to “take responsibility.”

After thinking it over repeatedly, she reached a conclusion.

Bai Jingbing’s appearance alone perfectly matched Xu Mengyan’s tastes. She was a breathtaking beauty—who would not like her?

Besides, Xu Mengyan had previously regarded Bai Jingbing as both an idol and a goal she wanted to pursue. She had dreamed that one day, she might become someone like her.

Then she discovered that Bai Jingbing was the woman from her one-night stand. The woman had even sought her out and demanded that she take responsibility by becoming her bed partner for six months…

Physically, Xu Mengyan had suffered a loss.

Psychologically, however, she had profited enormously.

Her dazed mind drifted back to the erotic events of the welcome-banquet night two weeks earlier.

Bai Jingbing had kept her word. She did not release Xu Mengyan until they had used all five remaining condoms.

Unfortunately, Xu Mengyan had not awakened before Bai Jingbing this time and therefore had no opportunity to escape. When she woke, it was already noon the following day, and the space beside her was empty.

She initially thought she had another chance to run.

Unfortunately, she could not find her clothes anywhere in the guest room. Instead, she discovered a neatly folded outfit beside the bed, with a bra and panties placed on top.

Xu Mengyan assumed they were new undergarments Bai Jingbing had bought but never worn.

The space between her legs felt unpleasantly sticky. Without thinking much about it, she took the clothes into the bathroom and showered.

However, when she put on the underwear, it fit her perfectly.

Normally, if it belonged to Bai Jingbing, it should have been too tight for her.

After getting dressed, Xu Mengyan quietly opened the bedroom door and searched for her handbag. Without her phone or money, even escaping would be difficult.

She bent over like a thief and was about to sneak into the main bedroom to search when a concerned voice suddenly came from behind her.

“Are you… feeling all right? I bought some medicine. Do you want me to apply it for you?”

Xu Mengyan was so frightened that her heart nearly leaped from her chest.

When she twisted around, soreness shot through her waist and distorted her face. Ignoring the fact that Bai Jingbing was her superior, she clutched her lower back and glared fiercely at her.

Fine. Her escape had failed.

Accepting reality, Xu Mengyan openly returned to Bai Jingbing’s bedroom. Everything inside had already been tidied, but neither her handbag nor the expensive dress she had purchased was anywhere to be seen.

“Your bag is outside. I sent your dress to the dry cleaner.”

Bai Jingbing followed closely behind her, constantly monitoring the Omega’s physical condition.

She had become somewhat carried away the previous night and treated the little Omega too harshly.

“Who gave you permission to touch my things?”

Xu Mengyan vented her resentment on Bai Jingbing, balling up her fists and punching the woman’s shoulder twice.

After all, Bai Jingbing was the primary culprit behind this entire situation!

What nonsense about ABO equality?

There was no such thing as absolute equality in this world. When it came to sex, they might both have lost their virginity, but no matter how one compared their experiences, the Omega had obviously suffered the greater loss!

Bai Jingbing raised an eyebrow.

A dangerous chill entered her eyes as she caught the small fist preparing to strike her again. She pinched Xu Mengyan’s chin between two fingers and raised her face.

“So the little Omega has a temper. Was my performance yesterday not impressive enough to tame you?”

Her voice turned threatening.

“It appears you still need to be taught a lesson. Perhaps you won’t behave until I fuck you so thoroughly that you can’t get out of bed.”

Without warning, Bai Jingbing wrapped an arm around Xu Mengyan’s waist, blocking her only escape route.

She lowered her head and sealed the Omega’s small mouth, kissing her so forcefully that Xu Mengyan’s limbs weakened. Her palm slipped beneath Xu Mengyan’s clothes, and a single sweep of her fingers easily unfastened the Omega’s bra.

“Mmm!”

The sudden looseness around her chest and the rough kneading of her full breasts made Xu Mengyan struggle.

She evaded Bai Jingbing’s advances and employed an Omega’s pitiful little trick, squeezing two aggrieved tears from her eyes as she pleaded obediently, “It still hurts down there…”

Bai Jingbing, whose desire had only just begun to rise, immediately saw through Xu Mengyan’s act.

However, she would never tell Xu Mengyan that after waking that morning, she had spread the Omega’s legs and inspected her.

Xu Mengyan’s clit and vaginal entrance were slightly red and swollen from Bai Jingbing’s abuse. Naturally, they would hurt.

Still, if Bai Jingbing insisted on fucking her for another entire morning, she believed it would not be impossible. Once aroused, the little Omega’s wanton pussy could withstand quite a pounding.

Bai Jingbing had always been immune to these minor Omega tricks.

This time, however, the two tears made her heart feel strangely uncomfortable. She mercifully decided to let Xu Mengyan go.

Although Xu Mengyan escaped another round of sex, she could not avoid being seized by Bai Jingbing and forced to apply medicine.

Overcome by intense humiliation, she sat on the sofa with her legs spread and stared fixedly into the distance. She could not bring herself to look at Bai Jingbing using a cotton swab to spread cool ointment over her pussy.

Xu Mengyan assumed that once the ointment had been applied and she obediently ate the takeout lunch Bai Jingbing had purchased, she would finally be allowed to go home.

Unfortunately, Bai Jingbing was a workaholic.

She insisted on dragging Xu Mengyan into the study to work overtime.

Xu Mengyan suspected Bai Jingbing knew every employee’s educational background and professional experience perfectly well. Without even asking whether she could do the work, Bai Jingbing handed her several jewelry sketches that appeared to have been drawn casually in a sketchbook and ordered her to turn them into clean line art on a tablet.

Xu Mengyan wanted to refuse.

Unfortunately, Bai Jingbing understood her too well and seized upon every employee’s greatest weakness. Before Xu Mengyan could speak, she said, “I’ll apply for overtime pay from the company on your behalf.”

Xu Mengyan gave her a false smile. “Thank you so much, Director Bai.”

Internally, she cursed Bai Jingbing and eighteen generations of her ancestors.

A worker’s weakness might be a shortage of money, but workers still hated spending their days off working overtime!

When Bai Jingbing had forcibly spread her legs to apply the medicine, Xu Mengyan thought she would be tormented until the following day before being allowed home.

Instead, she quickly lost track of time beneath more than a dozen sketches, performing the same work she had often done at her previous company—turning rough drafts into preliminary line art.

One day of overtime was not enough.

Bai Jingbing “imprisoned” Xu Mengyan until Sunday and continued making her work until that evening.

At least the workaholic still possessed a little conscience. She took Xu Mengyan to an expensive Japanese restaurant for dinner and then courteously drove her home.

When Xu Mengyan returned to her small apartment, she collapsed brokenheartedly onto the sofa and lay there lifelessly for several minutes.

She was expected to “take responsibility” by getting fucked in the future—and after being fucked, she still had to work overtime?!

Absolutely not.

She was going to resign!

Once she resigned and fled the city, Xu Mengyan would regain her freedom. She would no longer need to take responsibility for any of this ridiculous nonsense!

Having made up her mind, Xu Mengyan sprang to her feet and hurried into her bedroom. She turned on her computer and began composing her resignation letter.

She had just written a line thanking the company for giving her an opportunity to learn. As she reached the main point and began explaining that she needed to leave for personal family reasons, a message from Bai Jingbing appeared on her phone.

Bai Jingbing already sounded cold when speaking. Her written messages carried even less warmth.

[I won’t approve your resignation, so save yourself the trouble. I’ll also tell you a secret: President Han is my best friend, and she listens to me.]

Fine.

Xu Mengyan deleted the two lines of her resignation letter she had written with so much resentment.

Ignoring Bai Jingbing’s message, she remembered that she still had several private commissions to finish after working overtime for two consecutive days. She hurriedly showered, grabbed her tablet, and stayed up late completing her drawings.

She spent the following workday in constant fear, terrified that Director Bai would order her to go home with her after work.

However, when six o’clock arrived, Bai Jingbing was still discussing designs with Su Quanfeng and the others.

As a mere gofer, Xu Mengyan had no reason to participate. She gathered her belongings, clocked out at precisely six, and slipped away.

In this manner, she safely survived an entire week. Bai Jingbing did not bother her over the weekend either.

Xu Mengyan gradually lowered her guard.

She settled back into her daily errands and miscellaneous work, while her constant desire to resign faded completely.

Meetings were exceptionally dull for an idler like her.

Recently, she had also gained more private clients. She worked on their drawings until approximately one in the morning each day before sleeping.

Xu Mengyan nearly dozed off several times during the meeting.

She did not know whether Bai Jingbing had been particularly busy the previous week, but Xu Mengyan had survived it safely. Tomorrow would be Friday again.

She prayed to every god she knew that the workaholic would remain too overwhelmed with work to demand that she “take responsibility.”

It was no wonder President Han had willingly left the design-director position vacant for several months while waiting for Bai Jingbing.

News that Bai Jingbing had resigned from her designer position at an international brand in G Country and returned home to become Palm Pearl’s design director had spread through wealthy social circles, the entertainment industry, and the fashion world.

Numerous rich clients, top actresses, rising stars, and award-winning film queens came to Palm Pearl because of her reputation. They spent enormous amounts of money and specifically requested that Bai Jingbing design unique jewelry for them.

This was especially true among wealthy wives.

They competed with one another by flaunting their fortunes, and those who approached Bai Jingbing were willing to spend vast sums for complete jewelry sets.

The advance deposit for a single set could easily reach several million yuan.

From deposits alone, Palm Pearl had already earned tens of millions that week. President Han was so delighted that she announced the design department would receive another bonus the following month.

After Bai Jingbing identified several alterations and additional elements needed for the Mother’s Day collection, the meeting finally ended.

Director Bai, who seemed to carry her own personal cloud of cold air in everyone else’s eyes, calmly dismissed them.

Xu Mengyan snapped her laptop shut and rapidly gathered her belongings, preparing to flee.

She needed to minimize her contact with Director Bai and make the woman forget she existed as soon as possible.

Unfortunately, good things never lasted.

In front of everyone, Bai Jingbing issued another order.

“Xiao Xu, come to my office later.”

During the past several days, it had become common for Director Bai to summon the department’s gofer to deliver documents, prepare coffee, or perform other errands.

No one noticed anything unusual.

They followed Su Quanfeng—whose title had been elevated to design department manager following Bai Jingbing’s arrival—out of the conference room. They still needed to hold a separate meeting to distribute assignments.

Xu Mengyan, who had been preparing to escape, secretly rolled her eyes.

After answering perfunctorily, she carried her laptop back to her desk and put everything down. She deliberately took her time drinking some water, straightening her dress, and fixing her hair.

Only after checking herself in the mirror and confirming nothing was wrong did she knock and enter the great Director Bai’s office.

Bai Jingbing was still looking down at a jewelry design on her tablet.

She did not speak, so Xu Mengyan did not volunteer a word either. Attempting to minimize her presence, she stood nearly ten meters from the desk and waited for Director Bai to issue her instructions.

Silence filled the office for a while.

After quickly reviewing the design, Bai Jingbing turned the tablet facedown. She raised her head and studied the Omega who appeared to have been living quite comfortably lately.

“You should be healed down there by now, shouldn’t you?”

Bai Jingbing asked as casually as though she were asking whether Xu Mengyan had eaten that day.

D-Down where?

Xu Mengyan quickly understood which part of her body Bai Jingbing meant.

Her cheeks flushed with embarrassment. She also realized that she might not escape this weekend after all!

“It still hurts! I had to apply medicine just yesterday!”

Xu Mengyan immediately crossed both arms protectively over her chest. Her eyes widened, making it painfully obvious that she was lying.

Bai Jingbing’s slender brows rose slightly above her cold eyes.

She shrugged without exposing the lie.

She had plenty of ways to handle this little Omega.

“So it’s still that serious? Then I’ll need to examine you properly.”
