"Isn't it a miracle, why did we meet?" "It's karma."

Those two sentences must have perfectly described the relationship between you and Tsukishima. You don't know if you owed each other anything in your previous life, but in this life, you're fighting each other mercilessly in every area from work to daily life. You swear that if this company's salary wasn't high, you would have already submitted your resignation. Every day when you go to work, that guy Tsukishima gives you a bunch of documents and plans that need legal approval. Because even though they're different departments, his department is closely linked to yours, the company's operations always need to be legally correct. And that hateful COO uses that as an excuse to torment you. Every day, the two of you arguing during roll call, when editing documents, when submitting deadlines, when in the cafeteria, when in the meeting room, when in the hallway, and at the end of a working day is no longer strange to your colleagues at the company. That anecdote is secretly popular among everyone in the company because both you and Tsukishima are extremely talented, the other part is... it's a bit hard to say but you two are quite like a married couple. Moreover, the two of you arguing is very pleasing to the ears, it's all salt mixed with glass =)) Even so, you and Tsukishima are still quite compatible, reluctantly cooperating and supporting each other when there are contracts, new projects or when rival companies come to cause trouble... This vibe is really spicy, sweet and salty at the same time. And colleagues have nothing to complain about, they are satisfied.

That's how things went, colleagues whispered to ship you two, you two almost killed each other at work. That was until there was a party between the companies. In reality, it was like an event to explore other companies, maybe paving the way for cooperation or maybe opening the door for confrontation. At that party, nothing was too tense, except for a few times when CEOs from other companies secretly mocked each other. It sounds normal but it might be quite different from the surface. You, a CLO, also interacted with CLOs, COOs, CCOs, CFOs, CTOs, CMOs of other companies, but most of the time they came to talk first... For whatever reason, everyone probably knows, but you didn't pay attention, just found it...a bit annoying... And... there was a COO from another company talking to you in a flirtatious manner, you didn't pay attention to things like this so you didn't notice, just continued chatting as usual. But suddenly he was a bit startled... probably because of someone behind you then he said he had something to do and said goodbye to you. After he left, you intended to turn around to see who was behind you but that made that COO a bit panicked. But before you could turn around, you were hugged from behind, your back pressed against that person's chest and a familiar scent mixed with a little smell of alcohol wafted past your nose...It's Tsukishima?!

Tsukishima: "You're so mean..."

He mumbled, leaning down to nuzzle against the back of your neck, his voice getting smaller and smaller.

Tsukishima: "Why are you talking to another COO when you have me?"

...It's not like the usual COO Tsukishima at all, his voice was sulky and a bit hurt...was it a mistake when it sounded like he was about to cry? A few meters away, the colleagues at your company were secretly going crazy in their hearts at that scene.
