Chapter 185 Seeing Each Other Through the Window, Heartless Dog Xie
<Previous Chapter<Table of Contents>Next Chapter>
In the afternoon physics competition class, it was unclear how many times Jiang Fuyue had handed in her paper early, but this time, she was unusually rushed.
Lin Shumo raised an eyebrow.
Ling Xuan also noticed something unusual.
Their eyes inadvertently met, then each disdainfully looked away.
Jiang Fuyue found Shen Qiannan in the previous laboratory, and the latter cautiously placed a key in her hand.
“Little Junior Sister, this is something I got for you at the risk of my life,” he said in a teasing tone.
Jiang Fuyue smiled, her eyes twinkling like a bud blooming, stunningly beautiful. Her peach blossom eyes reflected shimmering light, her eyebrows were dark and thick, setting off her rosy lips and white teeth, making her look even more radiant.
“Thank you, Senior Brother.”
Shen Qiannan was a sucker for beauty, and nothing was more impactful to him than the scene before him.
He swallowed his saliva and suddenly cautioned, “This is just a key to one door. There’s a wall between this and the other two doors, and there’s a small door on the wall. Remember to lock the door and don’t wander to the other side. If you need to borrow equipment, send me a message or call me, and I’ll help you contact the person over there.”
In short, it was to prevent any chance encounters between Jiang Fuyue and Xie Dingyuan.
“Is this also requested by the other party?” Sharing the laboratory but not allowed to meet face-to-face.
Shen Qiannan nodded. “Well… that’s just the way he is. He’s got a lot of rules, he’s fussy, and he’s troublesome.”
Xie Dingyuan, who wasn’t present, suddenly felt like sneezing.
Jiang Fuyue nodded and replied, “Okay.” The other party was willing to lend her the laboratory, which was already quite generous, so she didn’t feel like complaining about their many rules.
After all…
Borrowing is a matter of favor; not borrowing is a matter of principle.
Taking the key and expressing her thanks once again, Jiang Fuyue happily left.
She first went to the library to draw up a schedule for the experiment.
Shen Qiannan had said she only had five days.
It was a bit rushed, but not entirely impossible to manage. She just had to hurry up, and everything should be fine.
In the evening, Jiang Fuyue packed up her computer, took the half-finished papers she had just printed, and went to the cafeteria for dinner.
After dinner, she went to A1.
In the laboratory under the setting sun, the glass windows were tinted orange, and due to special treatment, one couldn’t see the inside from the outside.
But the lights were on.
Jiang Fuyue raised an eyebrow, remembering Shen Qiannan’s instructions. She didn’t try to peek, or even linger, and went straight to the last door, gently closing it behind her.
Only inside could she feel how big this laboratory really was.
Three classrooms were connected to form one, with three doors left.
The first two doors corresponded to the biology and chemistry experimental areas, both of which were occupied.
The one she was in now was the physics experimental area behind the third door.
Since it was an interdisciplinary laboratory, it naturally had to demonstrate its comprehensiveness. This was particularly evident in the several comprehensive experimental benches set up between the two areas.
In other words, even if Jiang Fuyue was in the physics area, she could still find the biological equipment and materials she needed on the comprehensive bench.
This relieved her.
She carefully compared the experiment schedule with the required equipment and materials.
Most of them could be found in the physics area and on the comprehensive bench.
Very well.
Jiang Fuyue put down her backpack and put on the lab coat hanging nearby.
This officially marked the beginning.
…
Night fell, and the moonlight was bleak, silent and tranquil.
The entire teaching area and laboratory building of Q University had long since fallen into deep sleep.
Xie Dingyuan turned off the map generator, and the screen went black. He walked to the terminal, pulled out a fresh A4 paper from the printer, still warm from printing.
Turning it over, he placed it on the workstation and compared it with previous ones.
He opened the voice recorder and began to describe the changes, “In the fifth phase of cell evolution, compared to the fourth phase, there is a significant accumulation of bubbles on the surface…”
As he spoke, not only did the voice recorder capture his voice, but the connected tablet also automatically converted it into text and uploaded it to the cloud.
When he finished the entire set of analysis and glanced at his wrist, it was already past ten o’clock.
Xie Dingyuan cleaned up the workstation, checked all the equipment without missing a single item, put the instruments back in their original positions, then took off his lab coat, turned off the lights, and left.
He locked the door and had only taken a few steps when he noticed that the lights were still on in the physics area.
He paused, standing in front of the glass window. Of course, from the outside, he couldn’t see the inside clearly, but he could vaguely make out a blurry figure.
Has she arrived already?
When did she come?
He hadn’t even noticed.
But on second thought, at least it meant that the other party was obedient and not causing trouble, which was good.
Xie Dingyuan didn’t linger anymore and strode towards the parking lot.
Meanwhile, Jiang Fuyue was completely unaware of all this. She was in the midst of a crucial step, inputting basic parameters and preparing to record experimental data.
At the same time, she had to oversee the overall progress of the experiment, plan some steps comprehensively to save time as much as possible.
She was the mentor, the student, and the errand runner, bearing the entire burden of the research group.
Busy from start to finish.
How could she have the spare attention to notice what was happening outside the window?
She glanced at the clock on the wall and decided to stay for another two hours until the first set of experimental data was complete before returning to the dormitory.
On the other side, Xie Dingyuan had already driven his black business Mercedes out of the school gate.
On the way, a call came in, and the driving mode automatically answered it, filling the entire car interior with Shen Qiannan’s voice.
“Old Xie, you’re not being fair!”
Xie Dingyuan frowned. “What do you mean?”
“It’s Lin Weiwei! She’s a female Ph.D., a top student at MIT, proud and aloof. Now she’s lowering herself to pursue you, but you’re using me as a shield to push her away. Her heart is shattered, can you bear it?”
In the afternoon, after Shen Qiannan handed the key to Jiang Fuyue, he made an appointment to meet at a café opposite the school.
This meeting, oh boy, she was really not bad-looking, and she had a great temperament.
Her every move and gesture showed excellent cultivation, and her speech exuded a gentle scholarly aura.
Shen Qiannan took a close look at the beauty, but didn’t forget the purpose of this meeting.
He sipped his coffee and tactfully conveyed Xie Dingyuan’s refusal.
Since she was a top student, she couldn’t possibly not understand such simple words.
Lin Weiwei understood, but the next second, her eyes turned red. “Am I not good enough for him? Does he have to reject me through someone else?”
Outsider Shen Qiannan: “…”
This was not just about blind dates between men and women, but clearly love at first sight, with hearts secretly acquiescing.
Towards the end, the woman was almost in tears.
Shen Qiannan’s scalp tingled, he casually made up an excuse and fled.
After Shen Qiannan left, Lin Weiwei wiped away her tears and leisurely took a sip of her coffee.
Hmm, it tasted pretty good.
“Old Xie, the girl likes you, don’t you see?”
“So what?” Xie Dingyuan remained expressionless, his eyes cold.
Did he have to respond just because someone liked him?
Shen Qiannan clicked his tongue. “You’re quite something.”
To be able to speak so straightforwardly about being heartless.
“But seriously, Lin Weiwei looks good, and her brain should be decent too. I heard she’s the daughter of the third family of the Lin family. With your background, you two should be a good match. Are you sure you don’t want to reconsider?”
Xie Dingyuan: “No reconsideration.”
“…You’re a single old man born from a single womb, still so picky. Aren’t you afraid of growing old alone?”
Xie Dingyuan: “Not afraid.”
“Alright, go ahead and create as much as you want, become the true king of the dog world.”
The man frowned. “Don’t give me random nicknames.”
“Heh… Anyway, I’ve already done what you asked. Lin Weiwei didn’t accept it herself, said she wouldn’t listen, so there’s nothing I can do.”
“Mmm.” Xie Dingyuan showed no intention of making a fuss.
Seeing how easygoing he was, Shen Qiannan felt a bit uneasy. “You’re not going to turn around and kick my… friend out of the lab, right?”
Xie Dingyuan thought of the quiet physics area and the faint lights in the night. “…Not for the time being.”
“Not for the time being? What do you mean by ‘not for the time being’? Don’t really kick them out, where does that leave my face? It’s just for five days, endure it, will you?”
Xie Dingyuan remained noncommittal. “I’m hanging up.”
Hearing the click on the other end, Shen Qiannan muttered, “D*mn, you’re the doggiest of them all!”
He took a turn, merging onto the main road, and smoothly moved forward.
As the night deepened, the bustling capital city was illuminated by bright lights, with shops and stalls constantly retreating, neon signs flashing.
At this moment, another call came in, automatically answered.
The woman’s voice made Xie Dingyuan subconsciously frown, with a faint dislike flickering in his eyes…
Today, let’s work hard to make the puppy and Yueyue meet hhh~ what to do if they fight (chuckles)
