Chapter Summary
After Liu Ning finished speaking, Dean Fang experienced a brief moment of awkwardness, but quickly opened Sophie's door. Dean Fang kept nagging about how precious Councilor Liu's time was. Of course, he was thinking that if Sophie and Liu Ning got along well, Liu Ning would come here more often, and he could then make a good impression.
After Liu Ning finished speaking, Dean Fang experienced a brief moment of awkwardness, but quickly opened Sophie's door. Liu Ning really didn't know what to say. Dean Fang had no respect for the researchers here; he only respected himself. Dean Fang kept nagging about how precious Councilor Liu's time was. Liu Ning didn't know what to say either. When it came to flattery, such people were far superior to others. In their eyes, the time of such important figures was extremely precious, while the time of the researchers was not worth much. No wonder this guy didn't stay here for long; he didn't serve these researchers well. At this moment, Liu Ning also had his own thoughts. Having such a person here was a huge loss for humanity.
"Little Su'er, come out here right now. Councilor Liu has been waiting for you for ages. Put your work aside for a moment. I know what you're doing is very important, but Councilor Liu is no joke. He's a rising star in our human society. If we can build a good relationship with him, it will be a huge benefit to our entire research institute. He's currently the youngest human member, which is very important to us. If you continue with your old attitude, I'll have to tell you two what to do. Although you two are a couple, the situation is different now. There are plenty of girls who want to be with Councilor Liu, so you have to be careful. Otherwise, you won't have a place to eat later. You need to be mindful." This is absolutely necessary.
This guy didn't seem embarrassed at all. He immediately gave Sophie a lecture. If it weren't for Liu Ning's arrival, Sophie might have gotten angry with him. Her research was at a crucial stage, and no one wants to be disturbed. But this guy just barged in. When Sophie heard about boyfriend and girlfriend and learned that Liu Ning's surname was Liu, she realized it was Liu Ning. Her face lit up with surprise. Ignoring what the guy next to her was thinking, she ran out of the room. Dean Fang also smiled. Of course, he was thinking that if Sophie and Liu Ning got along well, Liu Ning would come here more often, and he could then make a good impression. In the end, it would be a different story. Getting a job transfer would be a piece of cake.
In the eyes of all the researchers, Sophie's face was almost always smiling. Leng Wuxue, despite having that surname, often smiled. Sophie, however, was like an iceberg. No one here had ever seen Sophie have any leisure time. Apart from staying in her dormitory, she spent the rest of her time doing research. No matter if someone went to see her or invited her out, it was almost never anything good. Even if she talked a lot during work hours, she wouldn't say another word after work. Sophie was just that kind of person. Over time, everyone had gotten to know her. But today's situation really surprised them. Our Miss Sophie threw herself into Liu Ning's arms.
That's understandable. The couple hadn't seen each other for so long; couldn't they allow some inappropriate behavior? So the others didn't say anything and hurried back to work. However, Liu Ning clearly heard some heartbreaking sounds. Needless to say, given his charisma, it was normal for him to have many suitors in the research institute. But what he just witnessed had killed them all. Now, they could only watch obediently. Who told them they didn't have that ability? If they did, wouldn't they already be winning the beauty's heart by now? Of course, they only thought about it in their hearts. Looking at Liu Ning's background, they knew they couldn't compete with someone like him. It was simply impossible.
In their usual interactions, Liu Ning was much more proactive than Su Fei, always trying to take advantage of her. But today's situation was something Liu Ning hadn't expected. Su Fei's willingness to throw herself into his arms in front of so many people truly surprised him. They had grown up together, and he knew Su Fei's way of expressing affection. It seemed he had neglected her for too long; it had been a long time since they had last seen each other. The last time they met was when they returned from Windmill City, and they hadn't seen each other since. It had been far too long. Liu Ning held Su Fei tightly in his arms. If happiness was anything, this was the happiest moment of his life, the most beautiful time.
"Dean Fang, I'd like to ask Su Fei for half a day off. You know my situation; I'm about to go to the ancient ruins, where my fate is uncertain. So, we want to spend some quality time together. No matter how difficult things are for you, I hope we can get Su Fei out of here today. I'll take care of everything and bring her back. You can transfer everything to me. If anyone is dissatisfied or has any objections, I can take full responsibility and won't cause any problems for your research institute. I hope you understand that. I need to spend some time with Su Fei because I don't know what will happen after I leave. I hope Dean Zhang can help me coordinate all of this."
If it were an ordinary person asking for leave, how could they dare to speak to their superior in such a tone? If you spoke to your superior in that tone last time, you probably wouldn't even need to ask for leave; they wouldn't have agreed at all. You're practically forcing them. But Dean Fang kept nodding beside him. Even if Liu Ning didn't say these things, this guy would have helped Liu Ning cover up the matter. Sophie is the top researcher here, so of course she can take leave, but she can't leave this place. She can only rest here. The entire research institute is very large, and they can do anything here. This is also to protect the safety of the researchers. After all, they are extremely important, but their personal protective capabilities are the worst, as everyone knows.
