The man casually made a phone call, briefly explaining the situation. Rescue would arrive soon.
Of course, it wouldn't be free. Yu Ping had to work for the Tang's base for three years without pay.
Xu Qian shook her head. It was truly brilliant, and she felt inferior.
[Ding, system notification, Fia has returned to the space.]
Xu Qian paused her steps and continued walking.
Before leaving, she had given Fia another teleportation talisman, which could directly transport her back to the space. The system was exceptionally kind to Fia, always giving her special treatment.
For instance, retrieving mission targets from the space required points, but Fia had stayed for so long without any deduction. When she wanted to grow vegetables, the system built a warehouse for her without even asking for her opinion.
She had asked the system, and the system had mysteriously replied that Fia was a future powerful being who...
"Ring ring ring—"
The busy President Tang picked up his phone again. The person on the other end spoke a long string of words, and President Tang's expression grew increasingly grim.
"I'll be right there."
"A Qian, you go back and rest well."
Xu Qian was accustomed to his constant comings and goings and waved her hand.
"Go ahead."
The young woman's indifferent attitude pricked the heart of a certain President Tang.
The man hugged her and kissed her before finally letting go.
Xu Qian was left stunned by the kiss. Never mind, she would wash up and get some more sleep.
Her comfortable life as a rich wife wouldn't last much longer...
The moment the young woman stepped into the living room, a familiar figure made her turn around and leave immediately.
Tang Zhiyuan had come to her doorstep?
"Xu Qian!"
Xu Qian's body stiffened. She turned around and gave a forced smile.
"Professor Tang, I'm off today."
The man strode towards her. Xu Qian, wearing high heels, couldn't run. She couldn't exactly enter her space to hide, could she?
"You were at work yesterday and off today. You're quite capable."
"Come with me."
Looking at Xu Qian up close, she could feel Tang Zhiyuan's exhaustion. His complexion was even worse than yesterday, with dark circles under his eyes that almost reached his chin. At least he had shaved today.
"I stayed up all night last night and improved the formula. The mice didn't die after eating it."
Xu Qian: ...
They didn't die. And then what?
Feed it to her?
The man spoke while pulling her arm and dragging her outside. "Today I'm arranging for the mice to mate. You come and study with me."
Xu Qian's mouth twitched. Why should she be an observer?
Tang Zhiyuan himself didn't understand his actions. He had thought she would come over this morning to share the good news with him first. Who knew his brother would say she was off today?
He couldn't stand it, so he abandoned his work and came to find her.
He actually found her!
Xu Qian sighed repeatedly. Why was she so unlucky to be entangled with these two brothers? She had to accompany one after the other, and their affection points weren't increasing rapidly, but as slow as a snail.
Back in the laboratory building, two small mice were already prepared. The male was mounted on the female...
They just sat there and watched. Xu Qian yawned. It was really... very boring.
Tang Zhiyuan's cheeks flushed and his breathing quickened as he watched.
Xu Qian, sitting beside him, could sense it. She frowned and asked, "What's wrong with you?"
The man shook his head, took out a bottle of prepared medicine from his pocket, and swallowed a pill without water.
Soon, his complexion returned to calm, and his breathing evened out.
Xu Qian stared at him. Was he... sick?
Did both brothers have some kind of problem?
Tang Zhiyuan's cheeks began to flush again under her gaze. He explained helplessly, "This is a libido suppressant. Level three espers have difficulty controlling their desires."
Xu Qian was taken aback. There was such a medicine?
In the apocalypse, level three espers were the most miserable. They had an episode almost every day, enduring unbearable pain.
