【1ST CALL】
Victor: The playlist a certain someone just shared with me seems to be a bit different from her usual taste.
Victor: “Melodies that accompanied us through those years of youth” ...
Victor: What’s gotten you so nostalgic suddenly?
MC: Haha, I stumbled upon this through random notifications and found it quite fascinating~
MC: So, speaking of which, what kind of stuff would you usually have playing on your earphones back when you were at school? It wouldn’t be all English listening exercises, right?
Victor: Set your wild thoughts aside, and yes, of course, I would also listen to music sometimes.
Victor: But there were also times when I would have nothing playing at all.
MC: You mean like simply leaving them in your ears?
Victor: Yeah. Seeing you with your earphones on, some of the individuals who are tactful enough won’t come forward to initiate a conversation again.
Victor: Doing this is convenient to save yourself from a lot of unnecessary hassles.
MC: Turns out, it can also be used as a shielding device! What a cool way to pull a “switcheroo”! Speaking of which, I’ve had similar experiences too.
MC: Victor, do you know what other things an electronic dictionary can be handy for besides looking up words?
Victor: Importing e-books in .txt format.
MC: Ah, so, you did this too!
Victor: Nope. I caught people in the act.
MC: You wouldn’t be...
Victor: Mm-hmm. I was in charge of inspecting such rule-breaching activities back then.
MC: ...humph, I have nothing more to discuss with someone who used to be an inspector.
MC: But out of curiosity, what would happen if I were to be caught red-handed by you?
Victor: I would most likely rap on your desk, signaling for you to step outside with me.
Victor: And then, I would confiscate the electronic dictionary and hand you a registration form.
Victor: [putting on a voice but doesn’t sound strict at all, subconsciously reminding himself she is my girlfriend and I’d get hell later LMAO] “Classmate, write your name here, and remember not to get caught by me again.”
MC: That strict? What if I plead with the Discipline Inspector for leniency~
MC: [you’re supposed to put on a cute voice here haha] “I bought this with the pocket money I saved for a long time! Please, inspector classmate, let me off the hook, pretty please, sob sob sob~”
Victor: Based solely on your tone over the phone call, I can’t feel much sincerity or remorse.
Victor: I’ll be home shortly, and I’m looking forward to your in-person demonstration.
Victor: Then, I’ll carefully mull it over whether to let you off the hook, or not.

【2ND CALL】
Victor: MC, your package just arrived, and it had some damage to the box when it was delivered. So, I went ahead and unpacked it for you.
Victor: But why did you buy a whole box of steam eye masks and eye patches?
MC: Well, the seller happened to be running a promotion, and I couldn’t resist the temptation...
Victor: Mm-hmm, you do get tempted very easily.
Victor: If not for that, we wouldn’t have a stockpile of “buy three, get one free” laundry detergent at home, nor would we have those Hawaiian-themed bath towels as “freebies for signing up.”
Victor: Let’s make it clear beforehand, don’t pull me into “using them up” together when the time comes.
MC: Victor, don’t be so heartless. I’ve put a lot of thought into selecting these items this time.
MC: You may not be aware, but steam eye masks come in many different scents nowadays.
Victor: Chamomile, rose, eucalyptus... I can understand how these floral scents might work, but coffee aroma? Are you sure it can help with sleep?
MC: Oh no, that one’s for keeping you energized! I hadn’t heard of this one before, so I decided to purchase it and give it a try~
MC: They claim its effectiveness is on par with the eye exercises we used to do in our student days; it not only provides eye protection but also refreshes and sharpens the mind.
Victor: In that case, why don’t you consider resuming the eye exercises twice a day from now on? Who knows, it might yield even better results.
MC: In the world of adults, it’s very challenging to squeeze out time for exercise.
Victor: I’m not entirely convinced of that.
Victor: If you utilize all this time you spend shopping impulsively on online sites, it will be sufficient.
MC: Humph, when I get home tonight, I’m gonna make you join me for an eye mask evaluating session!
Victor: I’m afraid my eyes won’t be able to handle such a heavy responsibility.
MC: Well, even though a certain someone says that, in the end, he will still cooperate with me~
MC: When the time comes, I will have the aromatherapy and candles prepared, and we’ll start with the eyepatches to kickstart the relaxation process.
MC: After that, we’ll apply the eye masks for a complete relaxation session.
Victor: ...couldn’t we perhaps spend this time better participating in some outdoor activities, something that genuinely focuses on eye health and relaxation?
Victor: Instead of relying on flashy remedies, it’s more effective to go out and do some physical activities.
MC: Hehe, have you realized that we have already mapped out a perfect weekend itinerary?
MC: Why don’t we just go to that camping site we’ve been wanting to go fishing for a long time! Hold on, I’ll call to make a reservation shortly.
Victor: It seems like a certain someone had this all planned out in advance, am I right?
MC: It’s all thanks to CEO Victor’s guidance that this small idea was implemented in reality so efficiently~
Victor: I think I’d prefer to experience your “efficiency” in other aspects.
Victor: Why don’t you start by making a checklist of the camping essentials we’ll need?
Victor: And after you’re off work, try to get back home a bit earlier. I’ll have the aromatherapy and candles prepared in advance to create a cozy work-friendly atmosphere for a certain someone.
