Madame is Pretending to be an Academic Slacker Again!-Chapter 214: It Seems Another Disguise Has Fallen Off!

Nalan Ye Jue watched her quietly the whole time.

The corners of his lips slightly curled up.

Even if he left a fly for her to play with, it only lasted fifteen minutes before it died...

If he’d known flies were this weak, he would have left her a couple more so he could enjoy watching her drive normally like a race car for a while longer.

After going around so much, by the time they drove back to the city, they just missed dinner time.

Nalan Ye Jue’s car broke down, so Qin Xin had no choice but to keep driving him home.

When they arrived at the villa area, Nalan Ye Jue naturally invited her to dinner: "It’s so late, the school cafeteria is definitely closed, and there’s only late-night snacks outside, which are unhealthy. Let’s eat at home, hm?"

Why is it that every reason the man gives is so hard to refuse!

He also has that sincere and gentlemanly face, with a magnetic and refined voice, all impossible to reject.

Qin Xin found it really hard: "No, I..."

Nalan Ye Jue gently reached out, brushing past her ear, as if to wrap his arm around her shoulder.

Qin Xin was startled!

Could it be, intimate contact again?!

This time the man wouldn’t find a reason to say he was helping her with the seatbelt, right?

Unexpectedly, the man naturally patted her black hoodie: "When you threw that guy into the police station just now, you got a little blood here."

Qin Xin turned her head to look, and indeed, there was a small bloodstain on the hood of her black hoodie, not very noticeable because of the black background.

As a medical student with a slight obsession with cleanliness, she frowned.

Nalan Ye Jue’s lips curled: "So, if you don’t mind, you can freshen up at my place. You can use the bathroom."

Qin Xin felt breathless: "..."

Yet another irresistible reason!!!

He let her use the bathroom!!!

Xinghe Bay, Riverfront Villa.

Qin Xin parked the car and helped Nalan Ye Jue down with his wheelchair.

She looked around and noticed that the garden surrounding the villa was surprisingly large.

It might take a few minutes to walk from the parking spot to his villa.

What’s more distressing is that the neighboring villas seemed even further away, with sparse lights like stars in the wilderness, scattered in this vast riverside villa area.

Nalan Ye Jue saw her looking into the distance and said warmly, "The neighbors next door are often abroad, those garden lights must have been turned on by their gardener." 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚

He then slightly curled his lips again: "Next time, I’ll introduce you to Mr. Neighbor. He’s quite into artificial intelligence, a low-key expert on a technical level."

Qin Xin’s heart skipped a beat.

She didn’t understand why he was introducing a stranger to her.

Expert, mister?

The word sounded a bit odd too.

"You have a good relationship with your neighbors," she managed to reply awkwardly yet politely.

Nalan Ye Jue gazed into her eyes, his smile deepening: "It’s alright. He’s just a bit reclusive, and his name...isn’t common either."

Qin Xin felt utterly baffled by his words.

She thought maybe he was just searching for a topic, after all, they weren’t that familiar, and discussing an awkward engagement was a no-go.

But talking about neighbors continuously seems quite odd, doesn’t it?

Really, it’s super weird!

Anyway, she better hurry and use his bathroom to tidy up her clothes.

Seeing Qin Xin dash into the bathroom, the smile at the corner of Nalan Ye Jue’s lips never faded.

He found a shirt in his wardrobe and knocked on the door: "Miss Qin."

A cautious voice came from inside: "Hm?"

"Put your hoodie in the laundry basket, the maid will clean it for you tomorrow. You can use my shirt for now." He specifically added, "It’s new."
