Chapter 159 Even Professors Confess (5)

At this point, the word "teacher" is practically taboo.

Xi Huai pursed his thin lips, took several deep breaths to suppress the impure desires in his mind, and said in a hoarse voice, "Alright. Play in the living room for a while. Breakfast will be ready in a little while."

Yu Ci smiled at him, stopped flirting, and obediently left the kitchen.

"..."

Inside the kitchen, the handsome and dignified man sighed almost imperceptibly and gave a bitter laugh.

The girl's reaction.

He was happy,

I'm unhappy again.

……

Xi Huai worked quickly, and the meal was served in no time.

Besides the beef noodles she requested, there were also some home-style dishes.

Looking at the delicious-looking food in front of her, Yu Ci took a bite and praised without reservation, "Teacher, your cooking skills are really good."

For a moment, Xi Huai didn't know whether to correct the girl's form of address or to respond to her words, a helpless smile on his lips.

Finally, he restrained himself and pushed up his gold-rimmed glasses, coaxing in a hoarse voice, "Be good, eat quickly."

Although the two had only officially started talking yesterday, the atmosphere now was extremely natural and relaxed, which was undoubtedly due to the man's deliberate actions.

He is very good at dominating the conversation, and he can subtly guide the other person to lower their guard, subconsciously adapt to him, accept him, and depend on him.

After chatting on and off for a while, Xi Huai paused and put some food on the girl's plate: "Shall we exchange contact information later?"

Yu Ci nodded: "Okay."

After a pause, she asked, seemingly casually, "Did any of your ex-boyfriends know how to cook?"

In the original story, the original owner had a very high frequency of boyfriends, basically changing boyfriends every week.

As Yu Ci ate, she recalled, "I don't know, I've never looked into it."

Truth x1
really do not know.

The original owner didn't put any effort into it at all; how could she possibly care whether those young, handsome men could cook?

Upon hearing this, Xi Huai's thin lips curved into a wider smile. He lowered his eyes and casually asked, "You've recently gotten another boyfriend?"

Yu Ci was about to shake her head.

"Ding--"

The phone rang.

Yu Ci glanced at the messages casually and put her phone down.

"No," Yu Ci answered honestly. "I've been too busy lately, I haven't had time."

Truth x2
The original owner was busy with assassinations and had no time for romance.

"Is that so?" He glanced down at the girl's upside-down phone, his thin lips pressed tightly together, but ultimately said nothing.

-

Xi Huai spent the day at the villa, playing chess with Yu Zi and chatting with Song Man, but his gaze kept drifting towards the living room where the girl was.

Yu Zi looked at the man in front of him who was multitasking and was even subtly giving him a half-piece advantage. His handsome face was serious and sullen, revealing no emotion. He simply played chess and said calmly, "You'll be 28 next year, right?"

Xi Huai paused in his chess game, then steadily placed a piece and said gently, "Yes."

Yu Zi: "You're not getting any younger, it's time to think about your own life."

Xi Huai lowered his eyes: "I'm not in a hurry."

Yu Zi frowned, as if he wanted to say something more.

Listening to this, Song Man tugged at Yu Zi's sleeve and smiled at Xi Huai: "No rush, no rush, it's good to meet someone you like."

Echoing the woman's words, Xi Huai lowered his eyes slightly, his peripheral vision still catching sight of the girl's figure.

time flies.

As evening approached, Yu-Ci said goodbye to her parents and then followed them out.

The handsome, refined man before her, his suit jacket draped over his arm, looked down at her with slightly lowered eyes: "Hmm?"

Knowing that the man had driven there, Yu Ci smiled faintly, tilted her head back, and teased him deliberately, "Teacher, would you mind giving me a ride? I need to go back to my apartment."

The original owner had her own apartment in the city center, where she usually lived. Upon hearing this, Xi Huai looked at her.

A gentle breeze ruffled the girl's dark hair, and her white dress swayed slightly, making her look exceptionally elegant in the night.

"The teacher is not available."

A soft, husky voice slowly rang out. The man draped his suit jacket over the girl, his fingers tightening around the jacket as he leaned slightly forward, smiling as he looked at her.

"Xi Huai is convenient."

Yu Ci blinked.

Seeing that the girl didn't respond, Xi Huai wasn't in a hurry. He maintained his bent-over posture and asked in a hoarse voice, "So, do you want your teacher, or do you want Xi Huai?"

The man's seduction was far too obvious.

Yu Ci smiled and asked in return, "Then do you want me to choose the teacher, or Xi Huai?"

The girl's red lips parted and closed, alluring and moist in the night. Xi Huai looked down at her, getting closer and closer, their breaths mingling, their thin lips close together, but just as they were about to touch, his phone rang.

"..."

Realizing what he was doing, Xi Huai took a deep breath for what felt like the umpteenth time that day, straightened up, glanced at the caller ID, and then hung up calmly.

The night breeze was already a bit chilly. Glancing at the time, Xi Huai pulled the girl's coat tighter around his neck.

"Let's go, I'll take you back."

Xi Huai quickly drove up and picked up Yu Ci.

Sitting in the passenger seat, the girl looked down at the mission messages that kept popping up on her phone, secretly lamenting that she wouldn't be able to get a good night's sleep again tonight.

Over there, Xi Huai kept driving, but his eyes were always on the girl.

Seeing her staring at her phone, he remained silent for a long time before finally asking in a hoarse voice, "A boy?"

Upon hearing this, Yu Ci turned off the screen and looked at the man: "What do you hope for?"

"..." The hand on the steering wheel tightened slightly.

From the morning onwards, the two were testing each other, pulling and tugging at each other frantically.

He appears to be in a dominant position, but subtly, the girl occasionally gains the upper hand.

Just like now.

Not knowing how to respond, Xi Huai gave a cryptic chuckle.

It was a smile, but there was no real joy in it.

He leaned against his car, his sleeves slightly rolled up, his long, slender hands casually resting on the car window, while the fingertips of his other hand lightly tapped the steering wheel.

Yu Ci lowered her eyes and looked through the pages: "Not a boy."

Just as she was about to continue speaking, her phone rang again; it was the man next to her.

Without even glancing at it, Xi Huai hung up the phone, and the car quickly stopped next to a building.

Before he could say anything, Yu Guangzhong's man pressed down on him.

A faint scent of sandalwood wafted into her nostrils, and thin lips almost touched her fair, delicate neck. Long, slender hands slipped under the girl's waist and moved behind her—

"buckle--"

The sound of a seat belt being unfastened.

Xi Huai stepped back. In the dim light of the night, his emotions were hard to discern beneath his dark, tousled hair. He smiled slightly and said softly, "We've arrived. Let's go back."

Yu Ci handed him the neatly folded coat, glanced at the man with an inscrutable expression, and thought she should try to coax him.

She leaned slightly and placed a kiss on the man's cheek.

Meeting the man's dark eyes, Yu Ci smiled and said, "Good night, Teacher Xi."

Inside the silent car, the man's eyes began to churn. Before he could make a move, Yu Ci got out of the car and left.

"..."

Watching the girl walk into the building, Xi Huai lowered his eyes, took off his glasses, and pinched his brow with his long, slender hand. After a long while, his phone rang again.

The call was answered quickly this time. The person on the other end seemed to pause for a moment before speaking casually, "What's up, buddy? Have you forgotten what happened today?"

Xi Huai was still pinching his brow, pretending to sleep with his eyes closed, and said in a low voice, "There's some movement?"

The man on the other end of the phone chuckled softly, "Hmm."

"People are coming from the other side of the island."
