Chapter 1507: You're Not Even as Good as a Lab Rat

Perhaps it was because the air here wasn't circulating, but Wang Sinian felt... a bit hot.

His gaze did not meet Xu Xiaoxiao's, but instead landed on a box not far away, and he said distractedly, "Don't exaggerate."

"Whether I'm exaggerating or not, you know in your heart!"

Xu Xiaoxiao twisted Wang Sinian's chin, forcing him to look at her.

Then she said in a firm tone, "With your state these past few days, if you don't undergo intervention, you really will become depressed, and then your life will turn gray, and you won't be happy either!"

Because of Xu Xiaoxiao's small movement, Wang Sinian could not avoid her gaze.

As their eyes met, he saw the seriousness and persistence in the depths of her eyes, and...

Wang Sinian swallowed, and asked with feigned calmness, "You... care about me that much?"

Actually, Wang Sinian had said similar things before.

But at this moment, he was not as arrogant or full of provocation as before.

Instead, he was tentative and cautious.

Xu Xiaoxiao, however, did not take his change to heart, only saying, "Yes, you are Elder Wang's grandson, and he is very worried about you."

Wang Sinian was not satisfied with this answer.

He even mimicked Xu Xiaoxiao's earlier gesture, grabbing her chin and leaning in.

Then he asked, "Then what about you? Do you, Xu Xiaoxiao, worry about Wang Sinian?"

The atmosphere at the scene suddenly became somewhat strange.

Xu Xiaoxiao pushed Wang Sinian's hand away and said quite frankly, "I worry too, even though sometimes you make me so angry I want to strangle you!"

This kind of answer...

Made Wang Sinian suddenly smile.

He smiled very brightly, but it drew Xu Xiaoxiao's questioning: "What are you smiling at?"

"Smiling at the fact that you don't dare to strangle me, and can only think about it."

Wang Sinian lifted his chin, his expression somewhat arrogant.

And like this, he had actually recovered some of his previous vitality.

Xu Xiaoxiao didn't know whether to feel relieved or depressed.

Anyway, she knew that once he was cured, he would probably have even more energy to annoy people in the future!

Xu Xiaoxiao sighed, feeling that she had dug a pit for herself.

Afterward, she negotiated with Wang Sinian, "I don't ask for you to repay my kindness, I just hope that when you want to annoy me, you'll think about the fact that I helped you."

Xu Xiaoxiao was very busy and her work was tiring; she really didn't want to keep playing mind games with Wang Sinian.

She hoped today's events could be a turning point, so that even if they couldn't live in peace, they could at least stay out of each other's way.

Wang Sinian knew what Xu Xiaoxiao meant.

He stared into Xu Xiaoxiao's eyes and gave his answer: "Depends on my mood."

Ha, this guy, does he not know how to take the hint?

He's even started putting on airs!

Xu Xiaoxiao rolled her eyes at him and couldn't be bothered to communicate with him anymore.

She then pulled out a record book to log the data from just now, as well as Wang Sinian's condition.

She was writing very seriously, and Wang Sinian even leaned over to take a look.

But with just one look, he questioned her with dissatisfaction: "What do you mean 'Patient Number One'? Do I not deserve to have a name?"

"We have always written it this way to protect patient privacy."

"No, I don't want a code name, you write my name!"

Xu Xiaoxiao tilted her head to look over, her face full of confusion: "Is this important?"

"It's important, I think it's important!"

Sighing helplessly, Xu Xiaoxiao said, "Fine, I respect your choice, I just hope you don't regret it."

"Hmph, I won't regret it!"

Wang Sinian stared at Xu Xiaoxiao, changed all the code names above to his own name, and then felt satisfied.

But very quickly, Wang Sinian discovered another problem.

He saw that on this record, there was a second experiment, a third experiment, all in a blank state...

That couldn't possibly mean...

A bad premonition suddenly arose in Wang Sinian's heart.

He hurriedly asked, "How many more times does this kind of treatment need to be done?"

"At least three or four more times."

At the thought of that tingling state in his brain...

Wang Sinian was filled with resistance!

He even said, "Actually, I feel quite good right now, there's no need for further treatment."

"Are you the expert or am I the expert? How to treat it, listen to me."

"But... I already know your intention, I won't get angry anymore!"

"Who said that accelerating blood flow in the brain can only be done through anger? Happiness, shock, anything works."

After hearing this, Wang Sinian was silent for a moment.

Then he asked with incomprehension: "Then why did you specifically choose to make me angry?"

What else could it be for? Just because she wanted revenge.

But such a reason could not be spoken aloud.

Xu Xiaoxiao looked up and responded calmly, "Since it's an experiment, we should try every scenario."

This reply was a bit like child's play.

It also made Wang Sinian complain unhappily, "Xu Xiaoxiao, do you take me for a lab mouse!"

"Hey, if you really were a white mouse, that would be great; at the very least, you wouldn't be chattering away and bothering me in my ear!"

After finishing her notes, Xu Xiaoxiao packed her things away.

Wang Sinian watched her profile and reminded her of one thing: "Don't forget, go confess!"

Because of this sentence, Xu Xiaoxiao's movements paused.

Then, she sighed: "Why are you even more persistent than I am?"

"Because I'm really looking forward to the scene of your confession!"

When Wang Sinian spoke, his face was full of an infuriating smile.

Xu Xiaoxiao felt a massive headache coming on!

Her mood was also very irritable!

But who made the promise in the first place, if not herself?

The pit she had dug herself, she could only grit her teeth and fill it in!

Xu Xiaoxiao sighed gloomily, then said in a stiff voice, "I need to check the time."

"I've already arranged the time for you."

"You arranged it?"

"Yeah, because the previous lecture was held so successfully, the school leaders have already consulted with Jiang Chenghao, and they'll hold another small lecture the day after tomorrow. Once the lecture ends, just ask him to the Lotus Pond. The Lotus Pond is quiet and has few people at that time, making it suitable for a confession."

A lecture the day after tomorrow...

Doesn't that mean the confession is the day after tomorrow?

No, no!

Xu Xiaoxiao hurriedly refused, "I'm not ready yet!"

"Actually, whether a confession succeeds or not has nothing to do with how well you prepare; in fact, the longer you drag it out, the more it tortures you."

This...

Seeing the hesitation on Xu Xiaoxiao's face, Wang Sinian patted her shoulder: "Why not cut the Gordian knot and just do it the day after tomorrow!"

For Xu Xiaoxiao, it was a blow whether she stuck her head out or pulled it back.

Taking the blow sooner was indeed a relief.

It's just...

She glared at Wang Sinian crossly and muttered, "You really went to great lengths just to join in the fun!"

"I'm also creating an opportunity for you; what if, when you confess, Jiang Chenghao is blinded by pig lard and actually agrees?"

Hmm...

That possibility wasn't entirely non-existent.

If she really were to stumble upon success by sheer luck...

Xu Xiaoxiao didn't know what she was thinking, but she pursed her lips and suddenly burst into laughter!

Watching Xu Xiaoxiao's delighted expression, Wang Sinian turned his head, his face turning slightly cold.

He thought to himself, is this woman actually starting to daydream?

Naive!!

Jiang Baobao looked at the man in front of her, her heart feeling as if it had been pricked by a needle.
