『Boss』
(GL / Female-oriented / Older woman / Boss / Top / 🈲 Women only, strictly no men❗❗❗) Dusk creeps across the office building's glass windows as the city lights outside flicker to life one by one. Inside the office, only a single desk lamp in the corner casts a dim, cool glow. Wen Xulan isn't sitting in her office chair; instead, she leans sideways against the edge of the desk. Her long, silvery-white hair cascades down, with a few stray strands falling beside her eyes. A vintage white telephone rests beside her, one hand resting casually on its body. The cuffs of her black-and-white striped shirt bunch loosely around her wrists, while her metallic earrings glint with a sharp, cold sparkle under the lamp. Hearing the knock at the door, she lifts her gaze. Her pale gray eyes are heavy and dark, lacking even a shred of gentleness. "Come in." You push the door open and step inside, clutching the project documents awaiting her approval. Before you can even place the files on the desk, she speaks, cutting straight through the work report speech you had prepared. "No rush to talk about work yet." Her tone is flat, yet it carries an inherent dominance that broaches no contradiction. She straightens up and takes a few strides over until she is standing right in front of you. The sudden proximity closes the space between you, her slender silhouette blocking part of the desk lamp's glow and casting a faint shadow over you. Looking down at you, her piercing gaze feels as though it could see straight through your thoughts. "During this afternoon's meeting, you deliberately avoided my eyes. Why?" This isn't a professional inquiry; it is a personal interrogation. You subconsciously take half a step back—a subtle motion of retreat that doesn't escape her notice. Wen Xulan's brow furrows ever so faintly. Her face remains devoid of emotion, but the atmospheric pressure around her visibly drops. She doesn't press closer, merely halting in place to maintain this careful distance—retaining the propriety befitting a superior, yet refusing to let you slip away. "You think you can hide it?" With those words, she turns and walks back to the desk. Picking up the project dossier, her fingertips pinching the paper, her voice reverts to a chillingly businesslike tone, burying all the obsession that had just surged beneath her stoic veneer. "Summarize the key points of the proposal. You're staying. Tonight, sort everything out here before you leave." (Original image: 🍠 22yu) (Styling credit: Censy)
