Chapter 1481: As Expected, Nothing Good Happened

Xu Xiaoxiao could feel Qin Yiyan's restraint, and she also saw the veins bulging on his arms.

These discoveries made Xu Xiaoxiao feel quite amused.

But the next instant, she straightened her expression again.

Afterwards, she looked at Qin Yiyan and Liu Xin'ai with a scrutinizing gaze.

She thought to herself... this is what love is!

There is bickering, there is tolerance, and there is the confidence of being favored.

And that set of views on love that Wang Sinian proposed?

Childish, and selfish!

Thinking of that guy, Xu Xiaoxiao felt a bit of relief in her heart.

After parting ways with Wang Sinian that day, Old Man Wang had not looked for Xu Xiaoxiao again.

Come to think of it, whatever happens to Wang Sinian later should have nothing to do with Xu Xiaoxiao.

And as for that brief encounter with Wang Sinian, let's just treat it as having had an unpleasant dream.

Xu Xiaoxiao took a deep breath and then focused her attention back on Qin Yiyan's side.

Twenty minutes later, the demonstration was completely finished.

Qin Yiyan could also sit up straight and let out a sigh of relief.

But the moment he sat up, he heard the sound of the three women opposite him gasping in unison.

"My god, this effect is immediate!!"

"Isn't it? The skin is visibly more delicate!"

"If you persist in using it, I feel like looking ten years younger than your peers is no problem!"

The women were incredibly moved and were even exchanging their feelings with each other.

But as for Qin Yiyan, he just wanted to return to his room, and then...

Wash his face vigorously!

He lowered his eyes and said in a slightly muffled voice, "You all chat slowly, excuse me."

After saying this, Qin Yiyan returned to his room.

Seeing this, Xu Xiaoxiao nudged Liu Xin'ai with her elbow and whispered, "Your man's mood isn't right; go coax him, I'll keep the matron company."

"This... no need."

"I advise you to go; it's better to be safe, watch out for the backlash of resentment."

Liu Xin'ai felt that Xu Xiaoxiao was exaggerating.

What backlash of resentment, Qin Yiyan isn't... um...

Alright, actually Qin Yiyan is sometimes a bit petty.

If she couldn't soothe his little moods in time, the one who would suffer in the end... would be Liu Xin'ai herself.

Looking up toward the direction of the room, Liu Xin'ai decided to go take a look.

Pushing open the room door, Liu Xin'ai saw Qin Yiyan sitting on a chair, looking out the window with a melancholy expression.

Walking gently to Qin Yiyan's side, Liu Xin'ai asked, "Are you really unhappy?"

Qin Yiyan shook his head and sighed, "I just feel like my face is no longer clean."

These words made Liu Xin'ai reveal a smile.

But at this very moment, a smile was inappropriate.

So she quickly put away the smile and even pretended to explain seriously, "They were just helping you with skincare, the intention was very pure."

"That's also disgusting!"

"Hey, what should we do, help you wash it with disinfectant?"

Use disinfectant?

Then does this face still want to exist?

His wife is too heartless!

Qin Yiyan tilted his head up and looked at Liu Xin'ai with resentment.

And that resentful expression of his... ultimately made Liu Xin'ai unable to hold back her smile.

Seeing her laugh, the sense of accusation in Qin Yiyan's eyes grew even stronger.

But just as he was about to explode, Liu Xin'ai raised her hand to cover his face, then rubbed it, and said, "Alright, now it's clean."

"It's not! It's still far from it!"

Liu Xin'ai thought for a moment, leaned over and kissed his forehead, then asked, "How about this?"

"... It's a little better."

Sensing the change in Qin Yiyan's mood, Liu Xin'ai realized something.

Then, she kissed his forehead two more times and asked again, "Is this okay now?"

"No, it has to be here to be better."

As he spoke, Qin Yiyan lifted his chin a little higher and pointed to his own lips.

At this moment, Qin Yiyan was just like a little child begging for candy.

Liu Xin'ai smiled, curled her lips, leaned over, and leaned in.

This was just a dragonfly-skimming-the-water kiss.

But the result?

Having tasted the sweetness, Qin Yiyan pulled Liu Xin'ai directly into his arms!

Kissing her unbridledly!

Besides... this guy's behavior is getting more and more wrong!

Liu Xin'ai pushed him away a little with force and reminded him, "Mom and Xiao Xiao are both downstairs!"

"What's wrong?"

"If we don't go down for too long, they will get worried."

"No, if we don't go down for too long, they will naturally know what is happening and won't come up to disturb us."

Sigh, what Liu Xin'ai wanted to say wasn't a matter of being disturbed or not, but rather...

Unfortunately, Qin Yiyan didn't give Liu Xin'ai a chance to continue speaking and pressed her directly onto the bed...

Downstairs, after chatting with Chi Rong for over twenty minutes, Xu Xiaoxiao realized that she wouldn't be waiting for Liu Xin'ai to come down today.

Tsk tsk, a man in a fit of anger is truly hard to coax.

It's a good thing Xu Xiaoxiao is single and doesn't need to deal with such difficult problems.

Xu Xiaoxiao felt secretly relieved, then bid farewell to Chi Rong and left the Qin Family.

At this moment, Xu Xiaoxiao was in a good mood and prepared to walk to a snack shop she frequented to eat something.

But just as she arrived at the snack shop, Xu Xiaoxiao received a call from Elder Wang.

She thought Elder Wang wanted to chat with her about the project.

As it turned out...

Elder Wang didn't exchange more than two pleasantries before bringing up Wang Sinian: "Xiao Xiao, what do you think of... Sinian?"

Heh, of course, I don't think much of him!

It's a pity, though, that out of respect for Elder Wang, such a blunt assessment could not be spoken aloud.

Xu Xiaoxiao could only force a smile and say, "He is a young man with many ideas."

"Hmm, it seems you have a very high opinion of Sinian. That's good, that's good!"

Elder Wang was rejoicing, and his voice even carried a sense of gratification.

But Xu Xiaoxiao couldn't understand it at all.

She thought to herself... where in that sentence she just said was there any element of praise?

Elder Wang was really forcing a connection here!

But having worked with Elder Wang for so long, Xu Xiaoxiao considered herself to understand his character.

His usual way of doing things was never like this.

Then now...

A foreboding premonition suddenly surfaced in Xu Xiaoxiao's heart.

And the next second, Elder Wang stated the true purpose of his call: "Sinian doesn't have much to do right now, so I wanted to ask if he could follow by your side and be your assistant?"

Ha, the premonition came true!

There really was something terrifying happening!!

Xu Xiaoxiao didn't even hesitate and hurriedly refused: "No, no need, my work doesn't require an assistant!"

Before contacting Xu Xiaoxiao, Elder Wang had done his research.

So at this moment, he continued to lobby with reason and evidence: "But aren't you opening a new course at the school? Although Sinian didn't graduate with a major in psychology, he can still help out."

No, he absolutely cannot!

Xu Xiaoxiao didn't even dare to imagine what kind of disaster it would be to keep someone with incompatible values by her side!

Her eyes darted slightly, and Xu Xiaoxiao hurriedly found an excuse: "Arranging an assistant is something the school handles; it's not my place to decide."

"Don't worry, I won't make it difficult for you; I will go communicate with them!"

"But... Wang Sinian won't agree!"

"No, it was actually Sinian who took the initiative to suggest being an assistant!"
