Chapter 678: Chapter 678: Professor Qiao’s Unexpected Joy Chapter 678: Chapter 678: Professor Qiao’s Unexpected Joy Qiao Yun told Li Hanzhou the address.
Li Hanzhou was curious about what Qiao Yun intended to do, but he didn’t ask further and just drove directly to the destination.
It was a pity, for he had wanted to take Qiao Yun on a date, but now it seed that ti would be wasted.
Upon their arrival, Li Hanzhou and Qiao Yun got out of the car together.
As they walked to the door, Qiao Yun hesitated for a mont, as if she thought of sothing, then turned to Li Hanzhou and said, “You can’t go in.”
Li Hanzhou was taken aback, uttering a sound of confusion.
Qiao Yun’s face was stern as she said resolutely, “She covets you; I don’t want her to see you.”
Li Hanzhou didn’t speak; his deep eyes gazed at Qiao Yun and, after a mont, he sighed and said, “Kid, if you keep teasing like this, I’m going to turn into a beast.”
Qiao Yun: ?? When had she ever teased him?
Qiao Yun didn’t realize that her straightforward behavior had made Li Hanzhou’s heart itch. She told Li Hanzhou to wait for her outside, then walked in alone.
…
Qin Xuan had been in the detention center for several days, yet there had been no word from ho.
She had thought her family would get her out quickly, after all, it wasn’t the first ti she had broken the law, nor the second. Hadn’t it always been the case that she was released without charges before even an hour had passed, or soone had co forward to take the bla for her?
The power of the Qin Family in the M country was not just for show; it was enough for Qin Xuan to act with impunity.
However, now, only a few days had passed, and her exquisite features had beco haggard; her once superior deanor was no more, and she was now in a state of utter disarray, so much so that she would likely not attract a second glance if thrown into a crowd.
Qin Xuan was in a state of utter confusion, feeling that the future was bleak. At this mont, she was inford that soone had co to see her.
A flash of joy crossed Qin Xuan’s face; certainly, it was her family coming to rescue her. With this in mind, a smile finally appeared on her gloomy face.
But when she got to the visitation room and saw who it was that had co to find her, anger appeared on her face, and her gaze towards the visitor grew increasingly fierce, as if wishing she could tear the person apart.
Qin Xuan’s words were deliberate and harsh, as if tinged with blood, “Qiao! Yun! What are you doing here? Are you here to gloat?”
There was no change on Qiao Yun’s plain face as she sized up Qin Xuan and said incisively, “You’re not doing well.”
Qin Xuan scoffed, growing more certain that Qiao Yun was here to gloat, the very culprit that had caused her misery.
Her face contorted as she said, “Don’t be too happy too soon, when I get out, I’ll make you regret this!”
“Oh,” Qiao Yun said indifferently, “The police have evidence, and they’re going to prosecute you. You won’t be getting out.”
Qin Xuan’s face turned pale, “So what if they prosecute , my grandfather will save .”
“He’s decided not to intervene,” Qiao Yun told her rcilessly, “Yes, your mother wanted to help, she tried to get my cousin to sign a statent of forgiveness, but your grandfather personally apologized to my cousin, saying he would not interfere in your situation.”
“Impossible!” Qin Xuan did not believe it, thinking that Qiao Yun was just trying to provoke her.
Qiao Yun lifted her eyelids, her face showing confusion as she asked, “Then why are you still here?”
Qin Xuan’s body trembled, her heart turned ice-cold.
She knew what Qiao Yun said was true. She just didn’t want to admit it, deceiving herself instead.
If her grandfather wanted to get her out, how could she still be here? Could it be that her grandfather chose Lu Shiran over her, abandoning her?
Qiao Yun watched Qin Xuan’s expressions and said unhurriedly, “You’re suspected of drug possession, serious offenses that could lead to the death penalty or life imprisonnt.”
Qin Xuan denied it loudly, “It wasn’t !”
“Then who was it?”
Qin Xuan was at a loss for words.
How could she know who it was when she was completely clueless? She had rely wanted to give Lu Shiran a lesson and make Qiao Yun feel what she felt, and yet sohow got entangled with drugs out of nowhere.
Qiao Yun stated, “It’s through the account you bought that you directed the kidnappers to inject Lu Shiran with drugs. The chat records are the evidence.”
“What?” Qin Xuan couldn’t believe it.
The case is still under investigation, so Qin Xuan knows very little information. Now, hearing Qiao Yun say that the command was issued from her account, she was completely shocked. She certainly hadn’t done it, so it would be strange if she wasn’t shocked.
She didn’t even think before she retorted, “I didn’t do it! I get it now, it must be you, the Lu Family, framing ! Right? I never saw it coming, your scheming is so heavy!”
Qiao Yun looked at Qin Xuan like she was an idiot, “The account is yours, in your hands, how could anyone fra you?”
Qin Xuan was suddenly stunned.
What Qiao Yun said was true, the account was in her possession, how could the Lu Family forge chat records?
Qin Xuan’s mind was in turmoil as she muttered to herself, “Who is it? Who wants to harm ?”
Qiao Yun looked at her strangely, emphasizing once more, “You should be asking yourself that, since the account is in your hands.”
At those words, Qin Xuan’s haggard face slowly cracked.
She rembered sothing, on the day she planned to ruin Lu Shiran, soone had co out of her room, explaining at the ti that they had co to see her.
Even though there was only mutual benefit between them, they were still family, so she hadn’t thought too much of it.
Now reminded by Qiao Yun, Qin Xuan suddenly felt an epiphany wash over her.
Often, the person who betrays you is the one closest to you.
Could it be him that is making her take the fall?
Qin Xuan’s lips turned even paler, she didn’t want to face this cruel truth.
After a while, Qin Xuan regained her composure and sneered at Qiao Yun, “I almost believed you. You ca here today to drive a wedge between us, right? But scrap that idea, I won’t let you have your way!”
Although she said this, Qin Xuan’s hands were clenched tightly.
Once the seeds of doubt are sown, they grow uncontrollably.
Qin Xuan thought again, Qiao Yun ca to see her today, was it to force her into confessing? Or to set her up to confess?
She glared at Qiao Yun fiercely, “As long as I don’t confess to this matter, even if the chat records serve as evidence, what of it? Do you have evidence of dealing drugs? Do you have proof of trading drugs with the kidnappers? Without this evidence, at most you could prosecute for intentional injury.”
Although Qin Xuan is an arrogant person, living in the Qin Family, where it’s either you get today or I get you tomorrow, she still has a calculating mind.
Even now, in this state, she could still analyze the situation rationally.
But even if it’s just intentional injury, it’s enough for her to suffer.
Qiao Yun isn’t as sinister as Qin Xuan thinks; she ca to confirm whether Qin Xuan knew anything. Now it seems her visit wasn’t in vain.
Qin Xuan seems to be completely unaware of the injected drugs, but she probably has a suspect in mind.
Having gotten the answer she wanted, Qiao Yun stood up, looked at the listless Qin Xuan, and said softly, “There’s sothing I forgot to ntion, Li Hanzhou is now my boyfriend.”
Qin Xuan looked up sharply, her pupils trembling, her face full of disbelief.
Qiao Yun’s eyes darkened, she commanded Qin Xuan dominantly, “He’s mine now, you can’t think about him, I would get very angry.”
Professor Qiao doesn’t just protect her offspring; she also has a strong desire to possess.
Even if it’s not Li Hanzhou, she would dislike anyone coveting her belongings.
Qin Xuan’s eyes trembled fiercely, her voice shaky as she said, “You’re lying to , aren’t you! I don’t believe it, how could this be possible … how could you two possibly be together?”
Qiao Yun dropped these few words and didn’t want to deal with Qin Xuan anymore; she simply walked away.
Qin Xuan, frantic and furious, called out from behind, “Qiao Yun! Co back, explain this to …”
Qin Xuan’s desperate voice faded as Qiao Yun’s cold and rciless back disappeared into the distance.
It was only after Qiao Yun’s figure vanished that Qin Xuan seed to lose her strength and slumped to the ground, looking lost and helpless.
She ended up in this situation today, and Li Hanzhou was largely to bla.
If Li Hanzhou hadn’t given her hope, she wouldn’t have co to Shangjing City happily to marry into his family, only to be cruelly slapped in the face.
Li Hanzhou doesn’t rember who she is at all; his eyes are only for Qiao Yun.
Qin Xuan felt regretful. She shouldn’t have co to Shangjing City, then she wouldn’t be in such a sorry state now.
…
Qiao Yun never took Qin Xuan’s provocations to heart, after all, their strengths were never equal from the beginning to the end.
Now that Qin Xuan had committed a cri and was under arrest, she went from an insignificant lackey to a brainless loser in Qiao Yun’s eyes.
Qiao Yun didn’t rush to find Li Hanzhou, instead, she called Pei Yao.
“Boss, have you finished eting with her?”
Pei Yao knew that Qiao Yun had gone to see Qin Xuan, and he was the one who arranged the eting through his connections.
As Qiao Yun walked outside, she instructed, “Have soone keep an eye on Qin Xuan’s situation.”
“Okay,” Pei Yao never questioned Qiao Yun’s orders.
Qiao Yun thought for a mont, then added, “If Qin Xuan wants to see soone, let her. Don’t stop her.”
Pei Yao loyally said, “No problem, I’ll make the arrangents.”
“Hmm,” Qiao Yun gave her instructions and was about to hang up.
“Wait…” Pei Yao asked, “You’re not busy now, are you? Want to et up?”
Qiao Yun answered, “I’m busy.”
Qiao Yun didn’t specify what she was busy with, and Pei Yao, as if telepathic, asked, “Boss, you’re not with Li Hanzhou, are you?”
“Yes. I won’t talk to you anymore.” Qiao Yun had already seen Li Hanzhou waiting at the entrance.
Pei Yao: “…”
He knew it.
Before Li Hanzhou had won over Professor Qiao, he was eager to stick to her every day, now that he had her, would he not cling to her even more?
Pei Yao increasingly felt like a neglected little cabbage in the field.
He couldn’t help but think, is being in a relationship that great? Maybe he should find soone too?
…
When Li Hanzhou saw Qiao Yun coming out, he asked her, “Is everything taken care of?”
Qiao Yun didn’t hide it from Li Hanzhou, “Qin Xuan might know sothing.”
“Oh?” Li Hanzhou’s mouth curved with interest, “Has the research institute found anything?”
Qiao Yun shook her head, “No news yet, so I decided to ask her.”
She didn’t expect the conversation to turn out to be a pleasant surprise.
Qiao Yun collected her thoughts and said, “Also, I told her that we’re dating, she was angry.”
“Qin Xuan’s matters have nothing to do with ,” Li Hanzhou said with a light smile in his eyes, “Your matters, on the other hand, do concern .”
The corners of Qiao Yun’s lips lifted slightly, “Zhouzhou is very good.”
“…”
Li Hanzhou thought, the kid looks innocent and cute, but can be quite scheming sotis.
Rembering what they hadn’t finished doing today, he teased, “Would you like to go on a date with good Zhouzhou?”
Qiao Yun’s eyes brightened, “Sure.”
One must-do thing for couples is to go on dates.
She and Li Hanzhou were both very busy. Although they had confird their relationship, the ti they spent together was not plentiful; most of it was spent discussing love and research over the internet.
Li Hanzhou asked with a wicked smile, “How do you want to date ?”
Qiao Yun didn’t hesitate to say, “I’ve thought about it.”
Li Hanzhou was slightly surprised, “That fast?”
“Yes,” Qiao Yun nodded seriously.
Li Hanzhou asked with curiosity, “You already had this planned out, didn’t you?”
“Yes,” Qiao Yun didn’t deny it and spoke the truth, “Couples are supposed to date.”
Now Li Hanzhou was very curious about how Qiao Yun intended to date him.
And then…
She took him to Tianqi Research Institute’s base in Shangjing City. Under the astonished gazes of the researchers, she dragged him directly into the laboratory and stuffed a robotic part into his hand.
Qiao Yun said enthusiastically, “Let’s have our date, starting with researching intelligent robots.”
Li Hanzhou: ???
Li Hanzhou looked down at the chanical part in his hand, his expression indescribable, “This is your idea of a date?”
Qiao Yun blinked, “I like the lab, so I brought you here. Isn’t dating about taking the other person to what she thinks is the best place?”
Li Hanzhou held his forehead, thinking with a headache.
Other people’s dating involved lots of sweet nothings, and his was directly jumping into experints?
Qiao Yun couldn’t decipher the complex expression on Li Hanzhou’s face and hesitantly asked, “Did I do sothing wrong?”
Li Hanzhou’s gaze settled on Qiao Yun, who looked with downcast eyes, appearing pitiable.
His heart softened, and he smiled, “You did everything right; I am happy you brought to the lab, especially because Professor Qiao’s lab isn’t easy to enter.”
Qiao Yun nodded in agreent, indeed it wasn’t easy to get in. Anyone who dared to co in was courting death.
Hearing that Li Hanzhou liked it, Qiao Yun felt reassured.
She asked expectantly, “So, are you happy now?”
Li Hanzhou sincerely said, “Happy.”
Qiao Yun was satisfied, “Good, then let’s continue next ti.”
Li Hanzhou: “…”
He felt like he had shot himself in the foot.
Then he discovered that when Qiao Yun focused on her experints, nothing could distract her, not even an earthquake.
As her legitimate boyfriend, he had beco rely a backdrop to her experints, and Li Hanzhou’s feet felt even more sore.
But watching the gleam in Qiao Yun’s eyes, he helplessly thought, as long as the kid was happy, he was willing to live in a lab for a lifeti.
Unexpectedly, Qiao Yun took Li Hanzhou to the usually off-limits lab, causing quite a stir in the branch.
They’re dead at, was Professor Qiao planning to use Li Hanzhou as a test subject?
That’s not too nice, is it?
The person in charge of the branch was shaken and quickly contacted Pei Yao, urging him to talk to Qiao Yun, to discuss things calmly and not to be impulsive.
Even if they really wanted to use Li Hanzhou as a test subject, they would have to wait for a dark and windy night to carry it out.
It has to be said that Qiao Yun’s unrestrained personality stems not only from her powerful background but also in part due to the institute people’s unconditional indulgence and support for her.
When Pei Yao heard Li Hanzhou had stepped into Professor Qiao’s lab, he instantly beca sour as a lemon.
It wasn’t about using Li Hanzhou as a test subject at all, it was about sharing her most important things with him.
Professor Qiao’s unique romance, probably only he could understand.
