Since Rong Si had already apologized to her, Su Jiu felt that there was no need for her to be angry with him. Hence, she said, “Alright, I forgive you.”

“Then… can I serve you tonight?” Rong Si’s eyes were smiling.

Su Jiu froze. What did he say?

Serve?!

Does he mean that he would… sleep in the same room as me?

The thought of that possibility suddenly made her ears burn, and she tensed. But she was well looking forward to it.

Su Jiu raised her chin and pretended to be arrogant. “Since you admit your mistake with a good attitude, I’ll allow you to serve me tonight. However, does Zhong Ya know that I’m here?”

Rong Si frowned. “Don’t mention her again. Our business is none of her business.”

That made Su Jiu laugh. “Alright. It has nothing to do with her!”

How nice! It was just a false alarm.

The little villain was still hers.

Zhong Ya was still waiting for Rong Si in her seat. However, even after she waited for a long time, he did not return. Surprised, she called him. Unfortunately, he didn’t answer.

Where did he go?

He’s not even answering the phone?

Just as she was about to make another call, she suddenly saw Rong Si return. However, Rong Si did not look at her. Instead, he said to Professor Zhong, “Professor, I’m sorry but I won’t be eating with the team while we’re here.”

Professor Zhong glanced at the startled Zhong Ya and quickly asked, “What’s wrong? Is something wrong?”

Rong Si nodded, and a doting look seemed to appear in his eyes. “Yes, my girlfriend is here. I’m accompanying her.”

One of his team members spoke up. “Girlfriend? Rong Si, you have a girlfriend? Why didn’t you tell us before?”

The person who spoke was called Jiang Hao. He usually disliked Rong Si. Professor Zhong valued Rong Si very much and carefully taught him and nurtured him. Jiang Hao felt that he had been with Professor Zhong for several years yet had not received the same treatment as Rong Si did.

At this moment, Jing Hao could not help but feel a little surprised, so much so that when he said these words, he sounded a little sarcastic. He even looked at Zhong Ya.

Sure enough, Zhong Ya’s expression changed.

Professor Zhong was also a little surprised. He did not expect Rong Si, who usually did not interact with girls, to already have a girlfriend! This is the reason he does not interact with girls usually, right?

Professor Zhong subconsciously glanced at his daughter. She was biting her lip and staring at Rong Si with a resentful expression, like a resentful woman who had been abandoned.

He frowned. What’s that look on her face?

Isn’t it normal for Rong Si to have a girlfriend?

Professor Zhong felt that he had to find a time to communicate with his daughter and stop her from having ridiculous thoughts, such as feeling that she had been abandoned and betrayed by Rong Si.

That would be outrageous.

Professor Zhong turned to Rong Si and smiled benevolently. “Your girlfriend is here. Then you should indeed accompany her. Go.”

Rong Si nodded and turned to leave without looking at Zhong Ya.

Jiang Hao looked at his back and sneered. He complained to Professor Zhong, “Professor, look at him. Everyone says that academic research is the most important. We’re older than him and haven’t found a partner yet, but he’s secretly found a girlfriend already. Now, he even wants to be intimate with her. That’s not very appropriate, right?

“The main thing is, what does he take our Little Ya for? She’s so good to him, but he doesn’t even look at her. I can’t stand it.”

Jiang Hao looked indignant.
