"Uh...uh—"

X faltered, and was asked suddenly, but didn't know what to say.

She is the least good at disputes in this area. It doesn't mean that she doesn't know the truth and doesn't have her own judgment.

It's that there are complex human relationships, and these ministers are also his subordinates and acquaintances.

Is it to support Malkuth's point of view, or to point out that this is actually too radical and extreme?Or flip the table, show an angry look, and tell these ministers to leave.

Every possible choice deduced by X will offend someone and make the ministers lose face. X doesn't feel like he is doing multiple choice questions...it's too difficult.

And just when X was about to speak up to make a choice and make a muddle, the head of the control department, Malkuth, spoke first, and gave X an answer in the form of a rhetorical question.

"You're actually looking forward to seeing the final outcome of those cowards, aren't you? Howling and clamoring to resign... It's too ignorant. I obviously like this job very much. It's great here."

The brown pupils are staring at X, and the eyes are full of smiles. This tone is the same as when encouraging X as usual, saying that she is the "best" and "best" "supervisor" , even with a little playful liveliness.

But that requires... excluding what Minister Malkuth said and what it said.

Her words, in fact, were very straightforward, revealing almost undisguised malice.

"Malkuth...you (interrupted)"

When X was about to speak to calm down the girl in front of him, the director of the control department raised his hand and interrupted what X was about to say, speaking in a tone that was almost comical and strongly ironic.

"Anyone is fine. Can you say something? Apart from you, other ministers should also say something?"

She finally put away that overly bright smile, and her eyes were cold. The previous smile was as weird as wearing a ceramic mask, but now her expressionless face was as cold as ice cubes that had been dug out.

Maluth glanced at the other ministers, from Hod who was curled up in X's arms to Yesod who was frowning across the sofa with folded arms, to Netzach who was dozing lazily on the sofa, and several other ministers were also looking at her.

But just looking at it... didn't say anything, not even a word or a note.

There was a deadly silence in the air, as if an extra central air conditioner had been added to the minister's office.

"..."

"Okay...Thank you for visiting me...I'm very happy! Next time we can get together with the middle-level ministers!"

So Malkuth spoke again, talking to himself like a rap man in a one-man show, everyone's complexion is not good, anyone can understand the 'sarcasm' in the words of the Minister of Control.

The two words 'visit' and 'happy' are extremely heavy, and if another minister's temper rushes up at this moment, I am afraid that the situation will develop to the point where it will be difficult to end.

X had to bite the bullet and speak up before the situation got further out of control, and took the lead in ending the possible chaos.

"Well, everyone, let's leave first. I'll talk to Malkuth alone... I'm sorry, Netzach, please wait in the office for a while. I'll come over soon after I'm done."

X knew what Netzach was thinking while staring at her, but she couldn't help it now, the first thing to do was to deal with the situation on Malkuth's side, and everything else had to be put on hold.

X felt like a maintenance worker, who would fill in a hole wherever it was missing, always in such a hurry, and only started to mend it when he found a hole in the railing.

She herself hadn't 'rewarded' Netzach for several days, and she didn't need to think about what the head of the security department was thinking. Before the troubles were resolved, new troubles came again.

The person who reassured X the most was probably the head of the intelligence department. After hearing what X said, Yesod snorted coldly, got up and left, very decisive and without any procrastination.

And Minister Hod is still curled up in X's arms, not intending to get up, just sniffing at his neck, which makes X feel warm, as if he is wrapped in an extra layer of scarf, so that X has to hug him Live Hod, then put it down.

The head of the training department is really a little too clingy... X didn't feel that Hod could be so clingy before, at most he was a little timid, too talkative, timid, and easily frightened.

"Hod, I'm going to visit you, please give me a little private space first?"

"Um……"

In order to send the head of the training department away, X even kissed the head of the training department on the cheek and gave her a light Kiss. ​​It wasn't until X took the initiative to give her the kiss that the head of the training department showed a sweet and lovely smile.

Before leaving, Hod kissed X's lips as a gift, tasted it a little before bouncing away...

It's as if arguing with Malkuth is a completely secondary matter, purely looking for an excuse to get tired of X, maybe even the fear just now is fake.

After all, if she was really scared, why did she insist on kissing X on the lips when Malkuth was watching her?Obviously, if it is just to show the friendliness between friends, a kiss on the cheek is enough.

But X didn't notice, she was just thankful that she finally sent the ministers away, and stopped the matter before serious disputes occurred... This fulfilled the duty of a supervisor.

After confirming that the other ministers had left, X carefully brought over the red wine that had been placed in the corner.

"Okay, they're all gone, Malkuth, you can say whatever you want... we can have a good talk, over a drink."

"Well, it's okay to vent your emotions at me. You've suppressed it for too long, and sometimes you don't have to bear it."

X wiped the remaining water stains from the corners of his mouth, and then repeatedly wiped his hands with a paper towel. After making sure that there was no other smell, he opened the cork of the red wine bottle and poured it into a clean glass. fine wine.

The poured wine was pushed to the head of the control department, but the head of the control department didn't say a word, just looked at X, and then looked at the glass, not sure if he was looking at the clear reflection of the glass or something else.

Maybe I'm thinking about something...

And after a few seconds, when X was so silent that he thought he had said something wrong again, Minister Malkuth spoke.

"Director, do you usually get along with other ministers like this?"

This sudden sentence made X startled, she originally thought that Malkuth would talk about the staff or the project, how could it be this.

"Hmm... which one do you mean? Netzach or Hod, well, they need more attention, so sometimes I will get closer to them and provide some extra help."

"They're not as strong as you, Malkuth. To be honest, I can understand your thinking and thinking. Unstable employees will cause more trouble and should be dealt with before the parts have problems."

"But—you overlooked one point, Malkuth. Employees are not real dead things, they are not parts, they have their own feelings and thoughts, killing employees too often will cause panic, and bring them greater burden and psychology pressure."

"You push yourself too hard. I know that many of the rules and policies you set have a good starting point, but it is difficult for employees to implement...or only you can implement it. Maybe, You can relax a little bit..."

"After all, even if it's work, you have to pay attention to relaxation and balance between work and rest."

While drinking, X seriously expressed his views on these matters.

She didn't bother to pay attention to anything this time, she drank the red wine like ordinary beer, and because she felt hot, X pulled the collar away again, and the seductive mark on the neck that lost the collar was clearly visible.

And the white collarbone seemed to be waiting for someone to leave a mark, firmly attracting the attention of the head of the control department, but I didn't notice it.
