Honkai Impact 3rd, but I have too many mods.

Su Mei answered.

"Recently, several suicides have occurred within the Chamber of Commerce. In order to ensure the mental health of all employees, we have specially invited the headquarters... no, Ms. Ye Lan specially invited her friend, psychologist Mr. Liu Bai. From now until the end of this week, all staff members must undergo psychological counseling with Dr. Liu Bai. Those who do not undergo counseling will have all year-end benefits canceled."

Damn! You wise men are just cunning!

"good idea."

Although she was internally complaining, Ye Lan's body behaved obediently.

Absolutely right, this is a perfect example of "surface engineering".

The incident had a serious impact, and the boss was trying to save face by suppressing the matter and making a good impression at headquarters.

Isn't this unreasonable?

That makes perfect sense, absolutely perfect.

As for psychological counseling, Ye Lan only needs to put herself in the employee's shoes to know how many employees would truly care about it.

They must feel that their boss is just going through the motions.

Is it really necessary to ask which is more important to employees: year-end bonuses or coming here for a trip?

"...But why not use the headquarters' name?"

"Because Mr. Liu Bai has come more than once, hasn't he?"

Su Mei chuckled softly.

"And Mr. Liu Bai's clothes..."

"It looks like she's being kept, doesn't it?" Bai himself inexplicably came to understand Su Mei's other line of thinking.

This is to tell others that Ye Lan is not only putting on a show, but also deliberately putting her kept man in the picture.

If she had come under the guise of a psychologist, the Herrscher would have been somewhat wary, since she knew she was involved in something serious, and it was normal for her to be suspicious.

But if we add the "pretty boy" factor...

"But there's another problem... God knows if the Herrscher has ever seen me."

“…Ah.” Ye Lan also realized what was happening.

Liu Bai did show his face when he saved her—although it was Huang Quan's personal performance at the time.

Even so, it's only a 50/50 chance that the other party didn't notice Liu Bai.

"I see... There's no problem with that."

Su Mei pondered for a moment before giving her answer.

"It's just one more supervisor, or you could say we can arrange a nurse that the Lawyer doesn't know. Even if the other party recognizes Mr. Liu Bai and chooses to expose himself, it doesn't matter. As long as the nurse is reliable, we can control the other party whether he commits suicide or acts out."

After saying that, Su Mei smiled again.

"If we extend this method... could we administer medication at the same time as the 'psychological examination'? That would involve a series of tests."

"Hmm...it's somewhat feasible, but there's a risk of alerting them."

Liu Bai didn't quite understand how to control the dosage of the Love Elixir.

If you feed an ordinary person a whole test tube of stool directly, they'll definitely be full. If one or two people make a fuss, Liu Bai can still claim it's because of his stunning good looks, but if there are four or five, it will definitely be noticed.

There are many things to consider when reducing the dosage. Reducing it too little may have little effect, while reducing it too much may render it ineffective.

We should ask Möbius about this, since he has a deeper scientific understanding of the Love Elixir than Möbius, the user and player.

"It's alright, we're not in a hurry to take action right now. This is just a rough idea that Su Mei came up with on the spot."

Su Mei's tone was very humble. Well, if we don't have the bias of a traitor from the original work, this girl is actually quite nice.

Even as a temporary and crude idea, this method is complete enough.

Executing it directly might not cause any major problems.

"That makes sense, but I need to think more about the specific details."

Ye Lan also agreed with Su Mei's statement.

Once the basic framework is established, the details can be gradually filled in—of course, not in the kind of "slowly" way that takes three to five years.

At present, it's not a problem to think about it for a day or two.

"Then it's up to you. After all, this is a family matter."

Liu Bai was also quite sensible; he had already given her the solution, and how Ye Lan made her arrangements was her own business.

"It might not be a bad thing to listen to Miss Su Mei's words."

"Ah... I understand."

Ye Lan scratched her head. "By the way, if you have time, let me try your medicine first."

He still seemed to care a lot about Xiao Guizi's initial winking and gesturing.

Ah... here we go again.

Ye Lan looked at Gui Naifen, who was standing behind Liu Bai, and saw that she was making faces again.

What do you mean?

To prevent myself from trying drugs?

Now that you've done this, I'm even more eager to try it...

Liu Bai would definitely not give her advice using drugs with harmful effects.

The fact that Gui Naifen only winked and made faces instead of coming out to stop it confirms this.

—After all, both of them are good people.

So that means... this medicine will have "terrible" but not malignant side effects?

Ye Lan was very curious, well, extremely curious.

After all, women who dare to pursue excitement and adventure must have a strong sense of curiosity.

When faced with important matters, Ye Lan would naturally restrain her curiosity, but now... the important matters have been discussed, and even if she doesn't bring this up again, it's as if she's seeing the guest off.

If we don't talk about it now, when will we?

"...Isn't that inappropriate?"

Liu Bai's expression turned strange.

"No matter what, it's not your turn to test the drugs."

If I beg you two more times, I'll stop pretending.

Liu Bai was just very afraid of using it in large quantities—like the kind of force-feeding method that Mebius used, which was essentially like scalding the stomach.

If it's just one cup—like when it was Rita and Raven before.

"You're making me more and more worried," Ye Lan said, resting her head on her hand.

"Then... that's fine."

Liu Bai pretended to think for a moment.

"Let me make this clear first: what you want has nothing to do with me."

Don't let the users end up being the ones who suffer the consequences, only to have their goodwill diminish.

"...This explanation is getting increasingly suspicious. Enough with the nonsense, do you have it on hand now?"

Chapter 108 Once it begins, there is no right to choose when to end it.

"Su Mei, do you want a drink? How about we share?"

“No, I’ll pass.” Su Mei shook her head. “I don’t have your strong curiosity and adventurous spirit, Miss Ye Lan.”

"What if you're a Herrscher of Dominion?" Ye Lan shook the gray liquid in the test tube in her hand. "Just kidding—though it's not entirely impossible. How about it, have a drink?"

If Liu Bai hadn't known that Ye Lan was unaware of the potion's effects, he would have suspected that she had become a brothel madam, acting as if she was trying to drag others down with her.

"Hmm, that's quite unreasonable..."

Su Mei looked slightly embarrassed.

"You drink it first, then we'll talk." Bai tapped the table.

While Ye Lan's doubts have some merit, rationally speaking, Su Mei is clearly not the Herrscher of Domination.

This is entirely a personal run on the bank.

To put it more directly, it's a lightweight version of "a few bowls of noodles".

Moreover, if the two of them really went crazy together, Liu Bai would have no choice but to hide in the pot—Liu Bai didn't want to see that happen.

"Sigh, if anything happens to me, Su Mei, remember to chop this brat up for me."

"I'm sorry, Su Mei is afraid she can't help with this." Su Mei shook her head with a smile.

"Tsk, we've already become inseparable since we just met."

It was Su Mei's overly friendly attitude towards Liu Bai that made Ye Lan worried.

Otherwise, because of this fear, Ye Lan wouldn't need to keep picking on Su Mei; they could simply ignore each other.

Night Orchid is the best at hiding.

Ye Lan sighed. Ling Liu Bai and his gang had absolutely no sense of crisis towards Su Mei.

俬

Well, even if you let personal feelings interfere, there's a limit. If Liu Bai still doesn't realize this now, then whatever happens in the future, I won't blame myself.

Gulu.

【Night Orchid's Affection Level: 4898 (Love Elixir)】

"..."

This person was completely unprepared!

Didn't I already tell you that this thing has side effects?

"Hey handsome, wanna hang out?"

Before Liu Bai could react, Ye Lan, with a strong and alluring expression, lifted Liu Bai's chin with her fingertips.

???

Shouldn't Ningguang be the one to write this kind of domineering CEO storyline?

When did it become your turn, Ye Lan?

"How about we do something fun, exciting, and fun?"

A very direct attack—when Liu Bai tried to move his head away, he found that the fingers that had been lifting his chin had somehow turned into a hand, gripping his chin tightly.

This is a damn coercion!

I knew that people with a mature, sophisticated vibe like you have a very strong desire to control!

Natasha is like that, and so are you!

...So could we fast forward to the fun, exciting, and stimulating part?

To be honest, Liu Bai has a strong desire to seduce, but he doesn't have the courage to do so—or rather, Liu Bai hasn't yet crossed the threshold from 0 to 1.

...I'm still a little uneasy, aren't I?

No, I'd say it's a bit scary, isn't it?

I have this strange feeling that I'm about to have my kidneys chopped off.

Yes.

You have the right to choose when to start... but you don't have the right to decide when to end!

Once his brain, which had been heated up by the amusement, cooled down, Liu Bai finally discovered the problem.

I'm just a weakling at level 3! Night Orchid can pin me to the ground and ride me!

The hand gripping her chin tightened more and more, gradually moving from her lower jaw to her cheek. Liu Bai cast a pleading glance at Su Mei beside her.
