Dean Pei took a sip of tea and looked at the young man beside him with his wise gaze.
This kid isn't focused; he checked his phone thirty-seven times in just over ten minutes, and occasionally couldn't help but chuckle.
Having been through it all, Dean Pei understood immediately.
He cleared his throat lightly and said, "It's getting late. Dean Liu has come all the way from Shanghai. Today, I'll treat you to a meal at Mingyue Tower so we can catch up."
An elderly gentleman with gray hair smiled and said, "My favorite dish is Buddha Jumps Over the Wall at Mingyue Tower. Once I've tasted it, I can never forget the flavor."
Dean Pei smiled and said, "Okay, I'll definitely satisfy you today."
The senior experts chatted and laughed.
Dean Pei said to Gu Jueye, who was standing beside him, "Aye, shall we go together?"
Gu Jueye looked apologetically at Dean Pei: "I have an unavoidable dinner engagement today, so Dean Liu, I'm very sorry I can't have dinner with you. I'll host another day and apologize to you in person."
Dean Liu waved his hand understandingly: "You young people have a lot of dinner parties, I understand. Just go and do your own thing."
Gu Jueye personally accompanied the senior experts as they left the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and only after seeing them off to their car did he return to the research institute.
Bai Qianmo hailed a taxi and headed straight for the research institute.
About twenty minutes later, we arrived at the entrance of the research institute.
The front door was open, and Bai Qianmo looked up into the small building. The light was still on in Gu Jueye's office on the second floor.
She walked straight in, headed straight for the second floor, and hurriedly pushed open the door to Gu Jueye's office.
Then I saw that familiar, handsome figure sitting at his desk, working diligently.
Hearing the door open, the man looked up at the girl in the doorway, his eyes full of smiles.
"You're here? Are you satisfied with me?"
Bai Qianmo was stunned for a moment, then blinked guiltily.
"You knew it was me?" How could that be? She registered a new account, and the naming style is nothing like hers.
How did he guess it was her?
Bai Qianmo was a little angry and frustrated.
Gu Jueye smiled and waved: "Come here!"
Bai Qianmo leaned against the doorway, refusing to go in.
Gu Jueye shook his head helplessly, got up and walked to the door. Before Bai Qianmo could speak, he reached out and picked her up in his arms.
With a doting laugh, he whispered in her ear, "Silly girl, you can't even change your phone number when you register a new account, huh?"
Bai Qianmo paused for a moment, then silently reached out and covered her eyes and eyebrows.
How embarrassing! I thought of using a fake account to test him out. This man always seemed aloof and unapproachable, so I really wanted to use other women to flirt with him.
When I registered the secondary account, I didn't think about the phone number issue.
When she added him, she was prompted to add him as a contact, and since she directly searched for his WeChat ID, he would definitely know at a glance that it was someone he knew who committed the crime!
Why does her IQ drop to the extreme in front of this man?
Is it true what netizens are saying—that women in love have almost zero IQ?
No, she doesn't want to keep getting flirted with by this man; she needs to flirt back.
Thinking of this, Bai Qianmo stretched out her delicate white hand and hooked it around the man's neck, her watery eyes shimmering with alluring charm.
"If a really sexy and beautiful woman added you on WeChat, would you accept?"
Gu Jueye raised an eyebrow, carried Bai Qianmo to the desk, and gently placed her on the table.
A pair of arms braced on either side of her, and he leaned close to her lips, giving her a light kiss: "What about you? If a handsome guy added you on WeChat, would you accept?"
Bai Qianmo hooked her arm around Gu Jueye's neck, tilting her head as if she were seriously considering the question.
"Actually, my grandfather said I look a lot like him. He fell in love with my grandmother at first sight. To be honest, falling in love at first sight is basically based on appearance, so I think I'll accept it."
Upon hearing this answer, the man's deep eyes darkened.
A pair of hands gripped her slender waist, pulled her forward, and his cool, thin lips pressed down on her with a punishing kiss.
The kiss was intense, carrying a punitive meaning. Bai Qianmo's lips curved into a smile, and she couldn't help but chuckle.
Gu Jueye reluctantly moved away from her, but his deep gaze remained fixed on her curved lips.
"So, you're with me because of my face?"
The large hand around her waist tightened even more, and Bai Qianmo opened her clear peach blossom eyes, her watery pupils gleaming with a beautiful light.
She reached out and touched his handsome eyebrows and eyes, her almost transparent white fingers gently rubbing his porcelain-white skin.
"Now I like it from the inside out."
Upon hearing this answer, the person was appeased.
He lifted the little girl up like a sloth with both hands, then walked to the other side of the desk and sat in the black swivel leather chair.
After Gu Jueye sat down, Bai Qianmo was forced to sit on his lap.
"I still have some data to organize, wait for me a moment." Gu Jueye kissed the girl on the lips, then his slender hands began to type rapidly on the keyboard.
Bai Qianmo hugged his neck, buried her face in his broad shoulders, and smelled the grassy scent that belonged to him. He always had a special and pleasant smell, unlike incense. Perhaps it was the smell of special detergent on his clothes. The quality must be very good, and the smell was very authentic.
In short, the scent brought her a sense of peace.
Tired after a long day, nestled in the man's arms, Bai Qianmo lazily squinted her eyes and whispered, "Will this not disturb your work?"
"No, I feel more at ease holding you."
Bai Qianmo smiled and rubbed against his shoulder armor a couple of times. She found a comfortable position for her head, closed her eyes to rest for a while, and unexpectedly fell asleep.
Gu Jueye worked for about half an hour before finally finishing up the experimental report he had done in the lab that day.
He reached out and touched the little girl's head, only to find that she had been sitting quietly on his lap for a long time without moving.
Even breathing could be heard from her neck. He sighed softly and gently patted her back.
Are you sleepy?
Bai Qianmo mumbled an "Mmm" in a daze, only then realizing where she was. She slowly opened her hazy eyes, her watery pupils still filled with confusion.
How did I fall asleep?
"What were you busy with during the day?" Gu Jueye asked.
"I bought a small company, and today is my first day on the job. I need to resolve the issues left by my previous boss."
Gu Jueye smiled and said, "My girl has already started her own business. Shall we celebrate today?"
Bai Qianmo cupped Gu Jueye's face in her hands, examined him closely, and smiled with narrowed eyes: "I'm already satisfied just to see a handsome face."
Gu Jueye placed his hand on her waist, gently and alluringly caressing her: "The promised three services, hmm?"
"I'll accompany you to eat, play, and chat. I even offered to sleep with you as a bonus." Bai Qianmo winked mischievously.
"Your sleeping companionship isn't professional enough, let me teach you." With that, the man grabbed her head and pressed it down, and her lips automatically moved to his.
