Chapter 306: Come Again

early morning.

Lu Qian rubbed the window that was covered with morning mist, and through the glass, he saw a silvery white outside.

The snowflakes fell from the sky, and the frost hit the branches, creating a dazzling scene.

"It's snowing." She sighed quietly.

Cheng Yi hugged her from behind, buried his face in her neck, and sniffed and nibbled her.

How can it smell so good? I can’t get enough of it.

Lu Qian ruffled Cheng Yi's hair with his backhand. "Today is Christmas Day. There will be a mass in the cathedral. Do you want to go with me?"

She went to the cathedral many times, but never attended any religious activities. Although she did not believe in religion, it did not stop her from wanting to join in the fun.

Cheng Yi hugged Lu Qian tighter in his arms and whispered in her ear, "Why not? When are you leaving?"

Cheng Yi felt that the man from last time must be there, and he was worried about letting Lu Qian go alone.

If he dares to touch Lu Qian again, I will find someone to kill him.

How could Lu Qian not know what Cheng Yi was thinking?

Cheng Yi was like a jealous person, thinking about throwing the cross that Louis gave her every day.

Lu Qian turned around, buried her head in Cheng Yi's chest with a smile, and acted coquettishly as if to calm her down, "It's still early, we..." Let's go later.

"Again."

Before Lu Qian could finish her words, Cheng Yi interrupted her and his hands began to move restlessly.

"?"

Lu Qian quickly grabbed his mischievous hand and looked at the man in horror.

"Can you please control yourself a little?"

Cheng Yi's brows darkened, and his hoarse tone revealed dissatisfaction: "I already let you go once last night."

“…” Can that be called letting go?

Last night, Lu Qian cried and begged Cheng Yi to let her go, and in the end all she asked for was a chance to take a bath alone.

After a night of excessive pleasure, her legs were still shaking and she felt sore, numb and swollen.

Lu Qian held Cheng Yi's big hand with tears in her eyes, her tone soft and pitiful: "Please... let me rest, it hurts so much..."

Cheng Yi remained unmoved. He tore off Lu Qian's clothes and kneaded the body covered with traces of misery.

He lowered his eyes and said calmly, "Use your hands, legs, or mouth. Choose for yourself."

“……?”

Lu Qian suddenly raised her head, opened her eyes wide, and looked at Cheng Yi in disbelief. Her rosy little mouth moved, but she couldn't say anything.

Cheng Yi glanced at her coldly.

"Then use them all."

“…”

Please ask yourself what should I do when a man is unreasonable?

Lu Qian forced himself to walk out of the bedroom with his sore legs, feeling dizzy.

Cheng Yi, on the other hand, looked radiant and didn't look like he had ever experienced a fierce battle.

Lu Qian turned her head to look at the devilish man beside her and couldn't help but grit her teeth in anger. This face made her love and hate him.

"You want it again?"

Cheng Yi lowered his head, raised his eyebrows, and spoke with obvious threat.

“…” Lu Qian shuddered all over, withdrew his gaze, and walked obediently with his head down.

Lu Qian sat in the car, looking at the snowflakes falling outside the window.

The streets and buildings are covered with snow, and people are wearing thick winter clothes, hats and scarves, which is the breath of winter.

The Gothic spires of Milan Cathedral were covered with thick snow, and the pigeons in the square became scarce. The ancient arcades became a good place for them to hide from the wind and snow.

The snow added a strong Christmas atmosphere to the city. Cheng Yi and Lu Qian, hand in hand, like an ordinary couple, chose to go to church for mass on Christmas Day.

The children in the choir chanted the Holy Mass, and the echoes reverberated throughout the vaulted cathedral.

The Holy Mass was held in this solemn atmosphere.

People use bread and wine to symbolize the flesh and blood of God, express gratitude for God's gifts, and then pray for abundance in the coming year with a pious attitude.

Lu Qian leaned quietly against the door of the prayer hall, looking at everything in front of him.

She didn't believe in any religion, she just wanted to be a part of the atmosphere. It was fine to be a bystander, there was no need to get involved in other people's rituals.

But the Catholic activities on this special holiday do have a strange sense of sacredness.

"Lu Qian~Long time no see~"

Suddenly, a low and faint voice sounded in her ears.

Lu Qian turned her head and saw Louis standing not far from her, greeting her with a smile.

"You're here too~"

Lu Qian responded in a low voice, not wanting to break the silent and holy atmosphere.

Louis smiled brightly, "Today is Christmas, the annual Holy Mass. I will definitely be there."

Cheng Yi turned his head and glanced at the gentlemanly and elegant man in front of him. He didn't give him any expression and nodded politely.

Louis was relieved, responded with a standard smile and bowed slightly.

"Let's go out and talk." Lu Qian smiled and took Cheng Yi's hand.

A few people found a warm corner under the arcade, sat around a coffee table, and watched the worshippers and tourists coming and going outside.

"This is all I have. I'm so sorry."

Louis brought over a few cups of instant coffee with an apologetic look on his face, which were steaming faintly in the somewhat cold environment.

"It doesn't matter, it's all the same." Lu Qian took it with a smile. She didn't care about these things anyway.

Louis sat upright on the stool, took a sip of coffee, looked up at the interior of the cathedral, and said with a sense of loss: "This may be the last time I come to the cathedral to watch the ceremony."

Lu Qian frowned in confusion, "Why?"

"I'll be completing my doctorate next year, and in Germany, Dean Sharit has been discussing with my advisor about the experimental data that Hoffmann Hospital sent to Germany two months ago. There's been new research progress."

Lu Qian was surprised and delighted to hear the news. Isn't this the research report from the Royal College of Physicians of England that they bought at the Hermes auction?

She glanced at Cheng Yi secretly, then looked at Louis.

"It's a good thing to have new progress."

"But..." Louis hesitated and frowned.

"how?"

Louis sighed and explained, "There are huge problems with the data in that report."

Lu Qian frowned, "What's the problem?"

"The neurological research they are doing is indeed very advanced. Even drug data from ten years ago is still relevant today. Moreover, their research ideas in neurotoxin and blood research are rarely seen in the medical field.

However, the human data they provided were not extracted from human samples, so the inhibitory drugs they developed could not be tested in clinical trials at all.”

Lu Qian's heart trembled. If the human body data in the report was really Cheng Yi's, then it must be different from human samples.

But...what Louis said next, does it mean that Charité Hospital has developed a treatment for Cheng Yi's illness?
