Chapter 89: Extras Three & Four Part 1

【Extra Three · Role-Playing Game】

The air was thick with the sharp scent of disinfectant.

Ye Chengxing glanced at the female patient standing before her and closed the reviewed medical chart, setting it aside.

“Name: Li Jia, age twenty-three, married…”

“I’ve finished reviewing your records. You’re here for a routine physical, correct? But first, I need to ask you a few questions. Please answer honestly.”

As she spoke, she picked up a pen. “Have you engaged in any self-relief recently?”

—“Mm-hmm. Yes, I have.”

“Frequency?”

—“Um… every day.”

“Understood. I have the general picture, Miss Li. You can go lie down over there.”

The doctor, her silver-rimmed glasses perched on her nose, set down the pen and retrieved a pair of disposable gloves. Her voice was soft and soothing, the kind that could calm even the most anxious patient.

The privacy curtain slid shut behind them.

The disinfectant scent hung steady in the air, supplemented by pheromone blockers.

Ye Chengxing met the eyes of the woman on the examination table. She snapped on a pair of sterile disposable gloves and stepped closer, her tone carrying a gentle reminder. “We’re about to begin the exam, Miss Li. Please lie back.”

“All right, Doctor Ye.” The young patient was strikingly beautiful, her eyes wide with evident nerves as she bit her lip. “But before we start… could you stroke my hair? When I’m nervous at home, my sister always does that to calm me down. I’m sorry—I know it’s a strange request, but just thinking about this exam has me on edge.”

The doctor paused, as if her words stirred a memory, her expression softening further. “That reminds me of my own sister. She’s about your age.”

She reached out and gently ran her fingers through the patient’s hair.

“Relax. There’s nothing to fear. I’ll be thorough. Go ahead and lie down.”

Soothed by the touch, the young woman released her lip—now faintly reddened—and murmured her assent before reclining on the exam table.

The overhead light immediately felt harsher, its near-blinding white glare intensifying.

She shifted her gaze to the doctor, who was meticulously pulling on her sterile gloves. The woman’s pale, slender fingers stood out sharply.

For the sake of the exam, Li Jia had chosen a skirt that would allow easy access.

A faint rustle of fabric filled the air as the hem was lifted and bunched upward. Her hand shot out to clutch it.

The Omega’s long lashes quivered. Tension made her body tremble, and when the cool slick of lubricant touched her skin, the shivers intensified. She fought the urge to press her thighs together, heedless of the procedure.

The doctor’s voice remained gentle in her ear, but the gloved hand firmly halted her movement, laced with professional authority. “Miss Li, this is a necessary part of the exam. Please stay still.”

Yet no sooner had the words left her mouth than the patient squirmed again, disrupting the procedure.

“Mmm~” Li Jia responded instinctively to the doctor’s words, then caught the breathy note in her own voice. Heat bloomed not just at the corners of her eyes but across her cheeks. “Yes, Doctor. I understand. I won’t… move again. Promise.”

Ye Chengxing acknowledged her with a soft sound and gave the delicate young woman a moment to adjust, patient as ever.

But the exam was interrupted once more.

A light smack echoed—not hard, but mortifyingly intimate—followed by the doctor’s cool, detached voice. “Is this your idea of staying still?”

Scolded as she was, it only made her slicker, wetness blooming uncontrollably.

Li Jia blinked through the haze gathering in her eyes, her lashes damp, but stubbornness made her mouth deny it. “N-no…”

Her words trailed off into a gasp as sensation overwhelmed her.

The bimanual examination was meticulous—pressing here, palpating there, confirming every detail for anomalies. Ye Chengxing worked with one hand while the other probed carefully.

The torment proved too much; tears leaked from the patient’s eyes despite her bitten lip and clenched resolve, as if terrified of another reprimand for fidgeting.

This time, she truly held still. Even so, her body betrayed her.

Ye Chengxing eyed the ruined glove, slick and soiled. She lifted her hand to brush Li Jia’s tear-streaked cheek, the contact lending her face an indescribably erotic vulnerability.

“Doctor Ye… is the exam over?” The gloved touch made her flinch away even as her gaze pleaded—repelling and beckoning in equal measure, her desires tangled.

When the doctor remained silent, she tugged anxiously at her skirt’s fabric. “Is it… bad? My condition?”

Ye Chengxing held her stare. “Yes. Quite serious.”

She gestured to the glove. “You’ve made such a mess of this. Does your partner know about these unmet needs of yours, Miss Li?”

Put on the spot, Li Jia’s lashes fluttered. Blush staining her face, she whispered her admission. “Y-yes… she’s not… satisfying.”

The doctor paused for a beat, then offered a tender smile. “I see. Then as your physician, it’s my duty to address the patient’s requirements.”

…

Pheromones swirled lazily through the room.

Tea fragrance mingled with the crisp sweetness of white peach, their long hair tangling as they pressed close.

Ye Chengxing nuzzled Li Jia’s ear. “We could plot out the next roles.”

Ever since Li Jia had coaxed her into losing control last time, some hidden switch had been flipped. Afterward, Ye Chengxing would gaze at her with heartache, vowing restraint for next time. Yet when the moment arrived, Li Jia’s deliberate provocations unraveled her every time.

Li Jia hummed at her words, basking in the lingering warmth, her voice husky and sweet. “What kind of roles?”

Ye Chengxing’s lips curved. “Something like this: after the exam, Miss Li comes home covered in marks. Her wife discovers them. Tearful pleas for forgiveness while the furious wife 【fucks】 her speechless.”

Li Jia’s interest flared visibly, though she let out a soft, feigned gasp. “…Sister, you’re such a pervert.”

Ye Chengxing read the delight in her tone and nodded without shame. “Mm. Learned it from you.”

Her fingers threaded through Li Jia’s hair. In response, Li Jia tilted her head, lips parting, eyes glistening as she silently begged for a kiss.

Their mouths met, and Li Jia melted into it, her cheeks flushing with intoxicating heat.

The soft, fragmented sounds set her heart pounding.

She understood Ye Chengxing’s restraint—without her teasing, they rarely reached such heights.

But restraint was the last thing she wanted. No holding back.

Gentle or feral, every facet must be laid bare for her, claimed wholly.

Even utter abandon—what of it?

She savored every moment, content beyond measure, yearning only to cling to each other’s souls through endless nights, bound in life and death.

【Extra Four · White Cat Ears】

The Space-Time Bureau existed beyond all worlds, unattached to any independent world or small world. Taskers on missions in other realms still experienced time’s passage, though flow rates varied wildly between worlds.

Ye Chengxing had signed a contract with the Bureau long ago, which allowed her to bring one companion on trips to and from small worlds.

Time had flown by since she’d taken Li Jia to her home world to meet her family and exchange vows.

999 had known she’d visited that small world—a common enough occurrence, usually for artifacts or reunions. What it hadn’t anticipated was her returning with that world’s designated villain.

It recalled how most small-world upheavals stemmed from such destabilizing characters.

Ye Chengxing hadn’t concealed much from Li Jia. After all, they’d traversed between worlds hand in hand; secrecy was impossible.

Li Jia took the revelation in stride—no shock, no fuss. She simply expressed her desire to join the Space-Time Bureau.

“That way, I can stay by your side forever, Sister.”

Truth be told, Ye Chengxing had planned to broach the subject herself at the right moment. Whatever Li Jia chose, she’d support it—though she dearly hoped for yes.

Before she could ask, Li Jia volunteered.

Li Jia’s enthusiasm wasn’t the snag. 999 was.

The system, once eagerly recruiting her, backpedaled at light speed upon second thought. “No! Absolutely not!” it declared. The Bureau would never admit such a volatile element!

999’s light orb practically vibrated with rejection. Ye Chengxing saw no path forward, but Li Jia, as if expecting this, curved her lips in a knowing smile. “Sister, give me a minute alone with 999.”

Ye Chengxing watched as Li Jia conferred privately with it. Their exchange was inaudible, but afterward, possibilities seemed to open.

Once 999 departed, curiosity got the better of her. “What did you say?”

Li Jia’s reply came easily. “Nothing major. I just asked if I could take on advance missions to earn my way in.”

Ye Chengxing pieced it together. “And it agreed?”

Li Jia nodded, but Ye Chengxing’s expression clouded with hesitation rather than joy. “Did it say which world? Can I… come with you?”

Ye Chengxing had undertaken a few missions before, and the task worlds assigned to her all featured relatively peaceful backgrounds. But that didn’t mean every other world was peaceful as well. She was well aware that under the Space-Time Bureau’s oversight, countless worlds harbored extremely perilous settings. Whether one could smoothly join the Space-Time Bureau was a secondary concern; Li Jia’s safety came first and foremost.

She didn’t spell this out in detail, but Li Jia picked up on it without needing to guess. Leaning forward, she planted a soft kiss on Ye Chengxing’s lips, her eyes sparkling with amusement. “Don’t worry, Sister. None of these worlds are dangerous—just some preliminary assessment tasks, and none of them are particularly challenging. But this evaluation is for me alone; you can’t come with me. If we went together, it wouldn’t count.”

Hearing that the worlds weren’t dangerous eased Ye Chengxing’s mind a little. Truth be told, she had wanted to accompany her, but learning that it would invalidate the assessment made her drop the idea. She cautioned, “Put your safety above everything else. If anything unexpected happens, ditch the task and look after yourself.”

Li Jia hummed in acknowledgment, kissed her once more, and assured her, “Of course.”

“Though for the time being, I’ll be off handling these tasks in the small worlds, away from your side. So you have to wait for me nicely, okay?”

In truth, Ye Chengxing had grasped this the moment Li Jia finished explaining.

Ever since their last parting, they hadn’t spent much extended time apart—except when Ye Chengxing herself was on missions.

Realizing it in her head was one thing, but actually watching Li Jia leave for the small worlds left Ye Chengxing’s heart feeling utterly hollow.

No matter what she was doing, her thoughts kept drifting back to Li Jia.

In her reverie, she couldn’t help but wonder if this was how Li Jia had felt during her own missions…
