Vanessa was tired, she didn't honestly understand why she was a Major General. Her merits were great, but she didn't know what the hell she was doing. She wanted to deny the promotion, but you simply don't.
Vanessa was very tired and exhausted.

Fu Bingwen looked at his future wife, she was beautiful. Certainly not by Modern Chinese standards. Her skin was too dark, her hair was too long and she looked villainous. He didn't want to describe her that way, but her aura was too strong and her violet eyes were always cold whenever she was silent for a little too long.
Her photos on the internet only showed her good side, whenever she was being heroic or dressed in her uniform. So naturally the soldier side covered it up well. He had never noticed it truly as she was always had her brother with her to soften her. But now that he was alone with her in the office... Fu Bingwen realized that he still eats this evil set.
Ah, please, Ms. Villain, I will do anything for you. Don't kill me~ (˵ᵕ̴᷄ ᗜ ᵕ̴᷅˵)
Fu Bingwen mentally talked to her, imagining different scenes. He couldn't help it, he read too many wear through books with the original villain being the FL. Blame the authors for being great writers. His future wife would be a great villain/FL, he would be the soft rabbit MC who hops into the wolves' den innocently.
"I will be taking you to get measured and pick out some different clothes." She told him, looking serious. But Fu Bingwen was too deep in his fantasies, he covered his face with his hand.
"Okay, Miss President, I will follow whatever you say~" He froze, ah! No! What did he say?! No, he didn't-AH! Why did he say that out loud! He was too deep in his fantasies.
Vanessa looked at him, her lip twitched up a couple times before she looked down at her desk, her hands clasped together in front of her. "You never had a choice in the matter, Secretary Fu."
He covered his face in embarrassment, no, please, don't play along. That's too much for his little heart. Secretary and President role-playing in a office, he could already imagine her pushing him down on the desk and-he blushed as he peeked through his fingers. Vanessa sat there, still serious and her suit didn't help him.

Vanessa felt a little funny as she watched her little husband-to-be forces himself to look everywhere but her in the driving seat. Which wasn't much as she had purposely used the smallest vehicle she owns and only the driver can see out the windows. She was a little surprised by how embarrassed he was whenever she said a line that a typical CEO in a novel would say.
She found herself saying them whenever he started to calm down, watching how he go back into his little shell instantly. The more she watched him, the more she found him cute. She was unknowningly developed what happens husband would later call a true 'evil' taste.
"Do you want to get a job or do you want to stay home with the kid?" She asked, deciding that she should stop so he wouldn't get used to her teasing. Driving past the tailor shop for the forth time, she looked at him calmly.
"I-I don't know, I was just planning on staying home for a while." He told her nervously, she nodded as she decided on going down a random street.
"Okay, hopefully you don't mind living on a private planet. The only people on it, will be soldiers and us." She looked at the time, before going on a street that takes them to the local mall. "What types of jewelry do you like?"
"Necklaces, earrings and rings, I don't like big bracelets." He answered her, looking confused. She nodded, pulling into the private parking lot, going to the VIP spot. "Is this the tailor shop?"
"No, it's the mall, we will be getting you some everyday wear and new jewelry." They walked to the door, where two humans greeted them. She held Fu Bingwen close when they passed a girl and man with bodyguards. "I don't plan on asking for your old clothes, its better to just get new clothes."
Niles wanted her to get more 'normal' clothes, but if Fu Bingwen wanted more colorful clothes, she didn't mind. Back in her old world, colorful and more wild clothing was a symbol of status. Furs of High Level Beast were the most sought after, there was no 'natural' colored furs when they reached the sixth rank. She also didn't know anything about fashion.
At one point of her first life, she wore only garbage bags, yarn, underwear and rain boots because she thought ruining clothes outside of the base was a waste. They got too much blood and brain matter on it to wash off, until some lady in Area Alaska had invented a special soap made from a mutant plant. When it made its way to Seattle, she finally wore normal clothing.
Vanessa thought that if a human was attractive enough, they could make anything work. Fu Bingwen was definitely one of those humans. Even if people didn't like his clothes, she thought he looked good in them. He looked cute in those oversized coats. She should give him her old high school coat.
Fu Bingwen didn't know that he wouldn't be able to escape the 'colorful' closet the original had as he walked into a store that had his style of clothes. Vanessa followed him into the woman's store, going to the dress area.
She watched him hold the plaid dress to his body, looking for something before putting it back and grabbing a smaller one. He seemed satisfied with the size and put it into her arms. Then he moved onto another dress, not seeing Vanessa telling a saleperson to grab the same dress in different colors.before telling another to follow them.
She followed after him, holding every item he handed her obediently, the workers hurriedly grabbed the rest. When they got to the cashier, the workers were ready to push them out. Ugh, didn't they know they can just ordered all of this online? Who goes shopping like this in stores anymore?
Fu Bingwen didn't noticed as he walked to the next store, happy to buy, buy, buy. Hehe, his father never let him buy everything he wants like this. It's a very new feeling.
-x-
Vanessa enjoyed shopping for him, more than she liked shopping for herself. There was just something more satisfying when he puts on the clothes she buys for him, he seemed to like shopping too.
They barely made it on time for the measurement. Fu Bingwen was wearing one of his new outfits, looking extremely pleased with it. She looked at his pale legs, making a note to feed him more. They were too skinny, he was actually too skinny altogether. As her partner, it would be shameful if he didn't have more meat on his bones.
She is strong and powerful, her partner shouldn't be this skinny. She didn't want anyone to think she wasn't able to keep her person and try to take him.
