Chapter 119: Only You
Mrs. Qin Xu didn’t have the heart to tease him any longer and immediately changed her tune. “But as soon as he heard it was you, he pushed aside all work to welcome you personally.”
“You two have a good chat; I won’t disturb you.”
Her second sentence was very light, as if she was afraid of being heard by the man.
Su Miantang nodded and walked toward the man, carrying the medical box in her hand.
“Mr. Qin, this is your new suppressant. There are three vials in total, 15ml each. The specific usage instructions are in the manual, or you can have your physician refer to the operational video on the Academy of Sciences website.”
As she drew closer, the scent of jasmine wafted toward him. It was so pure it almost purified his entire being. The man’s knuckles trembled; he was incredibly tempted. To avoid her misunderstanding, he suppressed the urge to cover his nose and mouth.
However, he still didn’t dare to look at her, staring only at the suppressant in her hand.
“Miss Su, can you help me with the injection?”
“Ah? Now?”
“Mhm.”
Su Miantang was startled by his request.
Firstly, she had poked him so miserably last time; he still dared to let her do it? Was he not afraid of pain?
Secondly, even for the new suppressant, the time of use was before, during, and after the estrus period. How could it be injected randomly?
After Qin Yanzhou spoke, he also realized what a stupid request he had made. A flash of annoyance appeared in his dark pupils.
He was just afraid she would leave like that and wanted to find a way to keep her. Even if it was just for a few more minutes, it would be enough for him to savor for a long time. However, his usually brilliant and flexible brain was like rusty metal before her; it wouldn’t turn at all.
“I misspoke. It’s for next month,” he added.
Under normal circumstances, Su Miantang would never agree to such a request, but since she came with a purpose, it was completely different.
“Sure.”
She agreed?
A flash of surprise appeared in the man’s eyes. He suddenly raised his head and met her beaming smile. In a flash, he turned his head away.
His mind went blank for a moment.
So beautiful…
Then she would come again next time?
How could she be so kind?
Just like last time when she faced his unreasonable request.
Her behavior only made him want to push his luck even more shamelessly.
His knuckles tightened slightly as he asked tentatively, “To show my gratitude, may I invite you to lunch?”
Su Miantang: “…” Lunch at 10:20 AM?
She originally wanted to suggest that he take her to see the natural scenery on the island, but changing the order didn’t matter.
“Okay, thank you.”
Qin Yanzhou ordered the servants to prepare the meal.
Su Miantang thought that his initiative to invite her to lunch was a signal of goodwill—at least the distance would be closer, and it wouldn’t be as cold as before.
She didn’t expect…
In the vast dining room, the luxurious Baroque-style long table was a full hundred meters long. She sat at this end, and Qin Yanzhou sat at that end.
Someone who was slightly nearsighted wouldn’t even be able to see the other person.
Let alone talk.
A thought suddenly flashed through her mind: ‘Every morning, the CEO wakes up from his eight-hundred-meter bed…’
It seemed he really just wanted to treat her to a meal.
However, she had just eaten the “love breakfast” made by Xiao Erduo this morning, and her stomach was still full. She had no appetite at all. But when the dishes were served, she changed her mind.
She once again witnessed the extravagant style of a top plutocrat.
Dozens of attendants elegantly filed in with trays. There were more than a dozen appetizers alone, followed by main courses, side dishes, soups, desserts… Soon, the hundred-meter table was actually filled.
It turned out he hadn’t chosen such a large table for no reason.
“Mr. Qin, do you have other guests today?”
“Only you.”
Across the safe distance, Qin Yanzhou finally dared to raise his head and look at her. He wantonly took in her eyes, her brows, and every part of her body.
“Are you sure?”
“I am sure.”
Su Miantang was astonished. “But isn’t this too much? Isn’t it a bit wasteful?”
Qin Yanzhou had never considered the issue of waste, but since she cared: “I just wanted Miss Su to taste the specialties of Planet Durant. The rest will be eaten by the servants.”
That was good then.
Su Miantang set aside the heart that had been taught since childhood that “every grain is hard-won.” She picked up the serving chopsticks and began to taste.
Five executive chefs stood by her side, introducing the characteristics, taste, ingredients, and eating method of each dish one by one.
“The Blazing Flame Mushroom Soup is made from the rarest mushroom species on the planet. Only the most tender part under the cap—a few grams per mushroom—is edible.”
“The Flying Dragon Scale Pattern is a rare fish caught five thousand meters underwater on Planet Quwave. The head, tail, and organs are removed, leaving only the delicious crescent meat on both sides of the gills.”
“The Fairy Giant Tower is the highest purity dessert in the entire Interstellar, even higher than the royal supply grade…”
It was extremely luxurious and indeed delicious.
She picked up a piece of the Fairy Giant Tower, and as soon as she took a bite, she let out a cry of pain. “Ah!”
“What’s wrong?”
In the next moment, Qin Yanzhou was before her. His speed was staggering.
The man’s long fingers, clad in black gloves, lightly pinched her chin, forcing her to look up involuntarily. He opened her mouth and checked with a nervous expression.
However, he found nothing.
Instead, he saw…
The girl’s beautiful lips were shaped like rose petals, crimson and full. Inside, her moist little tongue was pink and tender, as if it would flow with water at a touch. It made one uncontrollably wonder… if…
Taboo images flashed through his mind. Qin Yanzhou’s brows knit tightly, his breathing grew heavy, and his fingertips trembled. He released her almost instantly.
It was as if all her pain had been transferred to him.
Su Miantang found his reaction bizarre. “It’s nothing. I just accidentally bit my tongue just now. it hurts a bit, but it’s not bleeding.”
“…Okay.”
A long time later, the man, who was now facing away from her, slowly responded.
If one listened carefully, one could hear the tremor in his voice and a hint of self-reproachful annoyance.
What exactly was he thinking?
How could he be as filthy as a shameless thug?
Even with delicacies from land and sea, Su Miantang, who didn’t have a large appetite, didn’t taste much. In less than fifteen minutes, she put down her chopsticks.
“Thank you very much for your hospitality today, Mr. Qin. I had a very happy meal.”
Was it going to end so soon?
Were the dishes not enough?
The tall man sitting quietly at the end of the long table, waiting for her to say goodbye, gradually looked lonely. So much so that when Su Miantang warmly invited him to take a walk on the island to aid digestion, he kept his head down and remained silent, hesitant to respond.
