After speaking, Qin Xiao planned to return to the laboratory. A bunch of students who were waiting eagerly to witness some romance were all ready to take photos. And that was it? No holding hands, no hugging, and definitely no kissing! When Qin Xiao was leaving, he glanced at the students holding their phones. Those who made eye contact with him instantly hid their phones behind their backs. Xiao Li followed Qin Xiao’s gaze and saw the phones in those people’s hands, feeling speechless inside! Do they really think we need to perform a live show every day? Xiao Li went straight to the classroom and, after entering, took out her phone to message Qin Xiao, "See! You’re not being mindful of the influence, now our classmates are treating us like a free movie!" Qin Xiao received the message just as he reached the first floor of the teaching building. After reading the message, he thought of how she looked when sending it and chuckled. With a press of his finger, he sent a voice message, "It’s fine, if they want to watch, let them. There will probably be many more opportunities to watch for free in the future." While speaking and laughing, Qin Xiao continued walking, and the female students nearby whispered among themselves, "Wow, Professor Qin looks so handsome when he smiles! He seems so happy while smiling, he must be messaging his wife. Those two are just too sweet." "Exactly! The past few days have been so full of their dog food. But even though I’m feeling overwhelmed, I still want more of it. Let there be more of this royal dog food!" In the classroom, Xiao Li listened to Qin Xiao’s voice message, and her face flushed red. What does he mean by that? So, he wants to hug, kiss, and lift me high in the air at the university in the future? With a flushed face, Xiao Li replied to Qin Xiao’s message, "Sure! You can do a solo performance for them from now on!" Qin Xiao laughed and replied with a message, "I’ve never done a solo act before, I can only perform in a double act!" Seeing the message, Xiao Li blushingly stuffed her phone into her bag in annoyance! Hmph... Who wants to perform a double act with him? He wishes! Her face was bright red, but in her heart, it still felt sweet! At noon, after class, Xiao Li went straight to the laboratory, but when she arrived at the office, it was empty, so she sat there to wait. Qin Xiao and the students were observing a petri dish, which contained the results of their recent research. Xiao Li waited in the office for a while, and seeing that Qin Xiao hadn’t returned, she went to the desk to do her coursework. Qin Xiao received a call about their meal delivery, only then realizing it was already noon. He hurried out of the laboratory, instructing the students to eat, and took the meal back to the office himself. He opened the door and immediately saw Xiao Li sitting at the desk. Qin Xiao smiled and called, "Nini," while holding the meal box. Hearing the voice, Xiao Li looked up, biting the pen cap, "Uncle, is it because I asked you to do a solo act before that you deliberately left me alone in the office?" Qin Xiao placed the meal box on the coffee table, walked to the desk, pulled the blinds back, and turned the office chair, trapping Xiao Li between him and the chair. "Hmm, I had almost forgotten about it, but you just reminded me. Nini, I’ve never performed solo acts, my experience in double acts is insufficient, so you need to help me rehearse now." As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Li was forced to rehearse with him. When they parted, Xiao Li angrily bit Qin Xiao, thinking he’s becoming more and more shameless, daring to kiss even in the office now. Qin Xiao lightly licked his bitten lip with a hint of blood, realizing it must have split, indicating he’d angered her. Qin Xiao pulled Xiao Li up, then sat down and let her sit on his lap, "Are you mad?" Xiao Li said angrily, "Uncle, we’re in the office now, aren’t you afraid of being seen?" Qin Xiao laughed softly, "I locked the door when I came in." Xiao Li was completely speechless! "Uncle, what’s been up with you these past couple of days? Why are you hugging and kissing in public? If you do this at home, I wouldn’t say anything, but this is in public..." Qin Xiao whispered in Xiao Li’s ear, "Nini, don’t you like it?" The deep voice and the warm breath at her ear left Xiao Li a little dazed. Actually, I do like it. I’m just afraid it might not look good! "It’s not that I don’t like it, I’m just afraid..." Before Xiao Li could finish, Qin Xiao pecked her lips again, "There’s nothing to fear, I know my limits. Let’s eat!" Qin Xiao said as he helped Xiao Li up, then stood up himself, leading her to the sofa to eat. When they sat on the sofa, Xiao Li shook her head, dismissing it, since Uncle assured that he’s got it, she wouldn’t worry about it. Even if she wanted to, she couldn’t stop it. In such matters, women are often at a disadvantage before men. Even if she refused repeatedly, if Uncle wanted to kiss her in public, she couldn’t escape! Having come to terms with it, Xiao Li soon caught the enticing smell of food and instantly put the whole thing behind her. After lunch, Xiao Li rested in the office while Qin Xiao went to the laboratory to work. The most update n0vels are published on 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝✦𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖✦𝕟𝕖𝕥 When Qin Xiao entered the lab, Zhang Yang immediately noticed the cut on Qin Xiao’s lip, "Brother, did you bite your lip while eating lunch?" Qin Xiao shot a cold glance at Zhang Yang, who now had a girlfriend of his own and immediately understood, "Oh, it wasn’t self-inflicted, seems Brother had quite an exciting lunch!" The three students standing behind them managed to hold in their laughter, not daring to laugh out loud. Xiao Li stayed in the office until it was almost time for class before leaving. When she was waiting for the elevator, Qin Xiao’s three students happened to be going to their theory class as well, so they bumped into each other. Fang Heng and the others immediately called out, "Good day, Sister!" Hearing how they addressed her, Xiao Li felt thunderstruck! Thankfully, the elevator arrived, and Xiao Li quickly got in. The three followed her into the elevator, occasionally glancing at her from their corner. Being stared at made Xiao Li uncomfortable, mainly because their looks were a bit unusual! When the elevator reached the first floor, Xiao Li really wanted to rush out, but as a mentor, she had to maintain composure, so she endured the awkwardness and walked out slowly. Leaving the experiment building, Xiao Li deliberately slowed her pace to let Fang Heng and the others go ahead. The boys walked faster, and soon enough, Xiao Li fell behind them. With a sigh of relief, Xiao Li checked the time and hurried to the classroom since it was almost time for class. However, upon entering the classroom, she found hardly any seats left, as she had come too late. Just as Xiao Li was about to find a place to sit, Fang Heng’s voice rang out, "Sister, there’s a seat here, come have a seat." After Fang Heng spoke, everyone in the classroom turned to look at Xiao Li. Xiao Li, on the other hand, was staring at Fang Heng and the others, wondering what they were doing there?
