Every extra second she stayed here now, she felt she was confirming Möbius's words.
"What's the rush, Liu Bai? Have you missed me, Doctor?"
Ever since Liu Bai's "failed poisoning attempt," Mebius has really stopped calling Liu Bai "guinea pig"—sometimes he'd just start using the term and immediately change it.
"Of course I miss you, Doctor." Bai Guoduan smoothed things over instead of complaining that the two of them only met once every two or three days.
“Awesome~”
Mebius hugged Liu Bai, then habitually pressed Liu Bai's head into his chest.
(...It's about the same size as the shadow, but has a completely different scent.)
As expected, the giant snake is the best.
But then, Mebius put his arm around Liu Bai and whispered something in a voice only the two of them could hear.
"Little lab rat~ Can you tell me what's going on with the Eden on the living room sofa?"
Oh no, they still call it a white mouse and haven't changed their address.
The vinegar jar can overturn in an instant.
"I played cards with Qingque all night last night," Bai replied quietly, taking things out of context as usual.
Upon hearing this, Möbius laughed at a normal volume: "Hehe~ Little guinea pig~ Don't lick my chest~"
(This white mouse must have been specially used to show off their love...) Liu Bai felt that he had roughly figured out Möbius's personality.
—But I haven't even had a chance to lick it yet!
—So, since the blame has already been placed on their heads, can they really stick their tongues out now?
Ruan Mei: “…”
Ruan Mei watched the two of them displaying their affection from the sidelines.
Act! Let's see how long you can keep this up.
Aren't you just trying to make me jealous?
That would have to be because I have feelings for Liu Bai!
"Seriously~ you little guinea pig, you're acting like a baby~" Mebius continued with her sickeningly sweet, coquettish voice, then started pulling down her clothes with her fingers. "I just can't do anything with you~"
dong dong! !
Ruan Mei slammed her knuckles against the table twice.
"If you two want to indulge in debauchery during the day, you can wait until I'm gone—I'm not like you two, where time can be wasted at will."
The hostility is overflowing.
“Dr. Ruan Mei really doesn’t know how to read the atmosphere.” Möbius released Liu Bai with a regretful look.
But Liu Bai didn't look up.
Mebius blushed and pinched Liu Bai's soft waist in embarrassment and annoyance.
You're really getting into it?
After being pinched as a warning, Liu Bai finally looked up and wiped his mouth.
"thanks for treatment."
"...Thank you for your patronage."
Mebius blushed and uttered those words with extreme shame and indignation.
They're pushing their luck!
You little guinea pig, you've gotten so bold! You've even learned to push your luck!
Mebius kicked Liu Bai's shin under the desk—though he didn't have much strength.
It's just her being coquettish.
Even cuter.
If he were to carry the doctor to the bed now, would the doctor resist? This question involuntarily popped into Liu Bai's mind.
Mebius took two deep breaths and secretly pinched Liu Bai before getting off Liu Bai.
"Seriously, do some people just not know how to read the atmosphere because they can't stand to see me doing well?"
Mebius has now regained his normal expression, casually wiping his chest with a handkerchief.
If Liu Bai hadn't been so close to see Möbius's shy expression clearly, he probably would have been fooled too.
This is the kind of face-changing technique adults use.
"I also want to say that some people shouldn't treat shamelessness as normal."
Ruan Mei retorted coldly.
Mebius didn't care at all, and instead shook his chest.
"..."
Ruan Mei suddenly understood what it meant to say "silence speaks louder than words".
"Boring, that kind of thing can be made anytime."
"...?"
This sentence suddenly made Mebius blush.
Is this how you comment on the figure I naturally developed and am so proud of?
"Ahem! Ruan Mei, I read the joint research report you submitted yesterday. There are some parts that I don't quite understand. Could you explain them to me?"
Liu Bai found a photocopy of the report next to him.
"no problem."
Ruan Mei pushed Mebius aside, stood next to Liu Bai, and asked meticulously, "What do you not understand? I'll explain it to you now."
"Hmm... let's start with this 'cultivation of Chi You's remains'..."
"This idea comes from a biological weapon of a civilization in the starry sea..."
When the topic turned to academic matters, Ruan Mei relaxed considerably, and her previously icy tone returned to its usual gentleness.
So, is this gentle demeanor genuine or feigned?
Mebius watched the scene unfold with great interest.
"...Your comprehension is really good." After more than ten minutes, Ruan Mei smiled gently and nodded at Liu Bai, who was already able to apply what he had learned to other situations. "Is there anything you don't understand now?"
"Tell me about this next one..."
"Hmm... This is an idea proposed by Dr. Edison and his team, attempting to power the warships using the massive amount of Honkai energy from Chi You himself. However, in my opinion, this idea still has many shortcomings..."
Suddenly, Mebius, who had gone from being the second to the third party, felt a little bored.
Ok……
The scene before me is harmonious, but I still feel a little uneasy.
Mebius tapped his bracelet and sent a message to Liu Bai.
—Little mouse, I order you to pinch her butt right now.
Then, Liu Bai's bracelet emitted a sound that only those with special attention would hear.
Mebius felt slightly better.
"Um……?"
Upon hearing this voice, Liu Bai subconsciously activated the bracelet.
He actually has quite a few people on his bracelet who are considered "special contacts" – people who get angry if he can't reply immediately, or who make outrageous suggestions if he doesn't reply immediately and then take it as their consent.
—In fact, this range is quite broad.
After Liu Bai opened the page, he could see the message sent by Mebius without even having to click through.
(...Is this "white mouse" implying "even if you're General Thunder, you're still my pet white mouse"?)
She was exuding an air of coquetry.
Liu Bai had a slight urge to ask Möbius, "Who's the little snake who's afraid of being abandoned now?"
They just love this kind of reckless behavior.
—But what's with making him pinch Ruan Mei's butt next?!
Then, two messages popped up: "Mebius has something to do."
--pinch
—Immediately, right now, and you are not allowed to disobey.
"Hmm?" After three consecutive special notification sounds, Ruan Mei, who was talking non-stop, lowered her head and looked at Liu Bai's bracelet—fortunately, Liu Bai turned off the bracelet immediately.
Do you need some personal time?
Ah, Ruan Mei is so gentle now, she's a completely different person from when she first came in.
"No, no need, it's just useless information."
Jingle bell bell~
Jingle bell bell~
Jingle bell bell~
The bracelet rang three more times in a row.
"...I can explain it to you anytime, please reply first."
"No, I already said it, it's okay, you can continue talking, I'll look at it again in a bit... um, I'll look at it again in a bit."
Liu Bai subtly told Möbius that he would do it soon, and that he should stop using his supernatural powers—but it didn't matter if he didn't.
I've already set it to Do Not Disturb.
“Then I’ll explain it to you as soon as possible.” Ruan Mei picked up her water glass to moisten her throat. “Shall we continue… Mr. Liu Bai?”
Ruan Mei's hand trembled as she put down the water glass, and her tone turned cold.
The gentle Ruan Mei has turned into the cold Ruan Mei again.
"Uh..." Bai felt that pinching him once was enough, and he should stop while he was ahead.
"What's wrong, Ruan Mei? Why did you stop talking?"
At this point, Mebius decisively spoke up.
What do you mean by "loosen up"? Keep squeezing it.
She wanted to see how Ruan Mei would react today.
Mebius gave Liu Bai a warning look, but his expression was innocent.
"I..." Ruan Mei felt the strange sensation in her lower body and hesitated for a moment.
Normally, we should decisively expose Liu Bai now...
But now... everyone here is Liu Bai's man, so it's no use exposing him yourself.
Exposing it won't help...
It was just rational forbearance...
Chapter 314 Ruan Mei's Self-Analysis
"Hmm... next is..."
Ruan Mei had a cold face, but she couldn't help but make some strange noises.
"about……"
"about what?"
Liu Bai asked, feigning ignorance.
