Chapter 1089: You Will Never Consider Others

The two of them stood in a silent standoff.

After a long while—"So, you will never consider others. Forget it, pretend I never said anything."

Liu Xin'ai looked weary, not wanting to say another word, and turned to leave.

Should have been used to it long ago, shouldn't she?

Qin Yiyan was just like this.

Why bother saying so much.

Qin Yiyan stood where he was, watching Liu Xin'ai's back, his expression gradually turning incredulous.

What was her attitude?

Everything he did, wasn't it just to...

No, who was considering her? Teaching Liang Zhicheng a lesson today was just to vent his own anger!

Qin Yiyan's face darkened, his heart feeling blocked.

Afterwards, the two returned to their room, neither speaking to the other.

Yet, with great tacit understanding, they packed their things, preparing to leave the next morning.

Liu Xin'ai felt too embarrassed to stay any longer.

She could have gained a lot from this trip, but instead, she had caused everyone quite a bit of trouble.

As for Qin Yiyan...

He had had enough of that ungrateful woman!

Professor Shen knew Liu Xin'ai was leaving and came to see her off personally.

Although yesterday's events were a bit chaotic, Professor Shen had no intention of complaining, instead smiling and inviting Liu Xin'ai to participate in research projects in the future.

Liu Xin'ai agreed with a smile, and once the car started, she began checking relevant materials on her phone.

Qin Yiyan didn't want to meddle in other people's business.

But after holding back several times, he still couldn't help but speak, his tone cool: "Have you forgotten what you were like when we arrived?"

Liu Xin'ai hadn't forgotten.

She was even starting to feel a bit unwell.

To avoid the situation worsening, she stopped looking at her phone and instead used earphones to listen to a lecture.

Qin Yiyan glanced at her phone screen and gave a soft huff in his heart.

Other women in their spare time would at least watch dramas, eat snacks, or shop online for little trinkets they liked.

But Liu Xin'ai... it seemed she had never done that.

Her time was always filled with work, family, and study.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but mockingly say: "So diligent, are you trying to be the next Marie Curie?"

Liu Xin'ai listened to the lecture with her eyes closed; hearing this, she couldn't even be bothered to open them, only saying faintly: "Marie Curie was in physics, and I study medicine. Even if you're going to give an example, you should at least pick one from the same field."

Qin Yiyan: "..."

He truly hadn't thought much about it.

It was just idle chatter; did she have to be so serious about it?

Qin Yiyan turned his gaze away in frustration, only to discover in the rearview mirror that Lin Ze, who was driving, was actually snickering!

This discovery made Qin Yiyan immediately narrow his eyes.

Lin Ze was peeking at the situation in the back again.

As it happened, he caught Qin Yiyan's warning glare.

Now Lin Ze didn't dare to be presumptuous anymore and focused on driving.

Upon reaching their destination, Liu Xin'ai pushed open the car door, wanting to get out and stretch her limbs.

But she first noticed another car parked at the gate.

There were also servants stuffing suitcases inside.

"Be careful, there are very important things in this box."

Chi Rong was instructing the servants, but her peripheral vision caught the two walking over.

Turning her head to look, Chi Rong couldn't help but say with surprise: "Why are you back so soon?"

Liu Xin'ai pursed her lips at these words, her expression somewhat dim.

She also wanted to stay a few more days, but the actual situation didn't allow it.

Not answering, she looked behind Chi Rong and asked in confusion:

"You are..."

"Your father and I were only staying for a short while; if we delay your romantic time, then I won't be a nuisance anymore."

Chi Rong said with a smile, but noticed the atmosphere between Liu Xin'ai and Qin Yiyan... seemed a bit strange.

Just as Chi Rong was wondering, Qin Yiyan naturally put his arm around Liu Xin'ai's shoulder: "We went out for a trip, and Xin'ai is tired."

This explanation made Chi Rong nod in realization.

Liu Xin'ai stood stiffly by Qin Yiyan's side, truly admiring him in her heart.

They hadn't even really spoken to each other since last night.

In her lifetime, she would probably never learn such natural acting skills...

Thinking this, she suddenly felt her hand being held.

Chi Rong really attributed her stiffness to the exhaustion of the journey, her face full of heartache: "Xin'ai, don't work too hard; when you have time, you should also strive for the major events in life."

Major events in life...

Liu Xin'ai wanted to speak.

But Qin Yiyan squeezed her shoulder and smiled, "Mom, we know."

"Don't just agree, you also need to put it into actual action!"

Chi Rong knew he wanted to brush her off again, so she waved her hand helplessly, "Forget it, I won't nag anymore. Since Xin'ai is tired, you two go in and rest quickly. The things here will be handled by the servants."

Out of courtesy, Liu Xin'ai still hurriedly said, "I will see you off in a moment."

As soon as the words fell—Chi Rong immediately said with a smile, "It's fine, you rest first. Perhaps your father and I will come again in a few days."

Come again?

Liu Xin'ai's whole body stiffened, and her smile almost couldn't be maintained.

Fortunately, Qin Yiyan put his arm around her shoulder, responded for a moment, and then led her away.

After walking a distance, Liu Xin'ai wanted to break free from Qin Yiyan's palm.

But Qin Yiyan said, "Don't move around, my mom is still watching from behind."

"

"You didn't even turn your head, how do you know?"

"Intuition."

These two words, which had no scientific basis, left Liu Xin'ai somewhat speechless.

Immediately after, she couldn't help but feel a little worried.

Chi Rong is coming again...

I don't know how long she plans to stay next time?

Liu Xin'ai sighed.

However, not having to show affection in front of the elder made her feel much more relaxed.

In the evening, the two of them also naturally slept in separate rooms.

She didn't know if Qin Yiyan was still angry; he didn't say a word about the matter of sleeping in separate rooms.

Liu Xin'ai couldn't be bothered to care either.

Inside the room—Liu Xin'ai was holding a pile of documents, looking at them carefully.

Just at this moment, someone suddenly knocked on the door.

The knocking was short and hurried.

But it was just a symbolic knock twice, and then the person pushed the door open and walked in directly.

"You..."

Liu Xin'ai frowned, and before she could finish her sentence—she saw Qin Yiyan move to take off his pajamas, revealing his lean and strong upper body!

He even sat down in front of her!

"You..."

Liu Xin'ai suddenly gripped the pen in her hand tightly and hurriedly averted her gaze.

What does Qin Yiyan want to do again?

These past few days outside, he hadn't demanded she do that kind of thing, which had made her let down her guard all at once. At this moment, seeing his actions, those unhappy past experiences rushed over instantly, making her as vigilant as a hedgehog.

Liu Xin'ai was very worried that Qin Yiyan would act recklessly.

Moreover, the bedroom door was open; did Qin Yiyan forget to close the door, or did he intentionally want to...

The latter assumption made Liu Xin'ai both ashamed and angry, and she just wanted to open her mouth to drive him out!

But...

"Hey, how long are you going to dawdle? Hurry up."

Qin Yiyan had his back to Liu Xin'ai, his voice slightly impatient.

His voice was cold and indifferent, without a hint of desire.

Liu Xin'ai was puzzled.

After hesitating for two seconds, she eventually asked with patience, "What exactly do you want to do?"
