However, everyone in the research institute felt that Mr. Shen had become a different person since he got married. He became more and more strict with them, and the topics he taught became more and more advanced. If computers had not been widely used, they would not be able to keep up with the pace.

I even began to doubt my own intelligence. Am I a little stupid? Do I need to recruit some young people? Then I thought to myself, young people are not even half as smart as me, so forget it.

Jiuli didn't care at all. She just asked if she didn't understand and continued to talk about the next topic. After she finished, she ran away.

Looking at Jiuli who left the meeting room first, several old men who were hundreds of years old in total gathered together, smiling without saying a word. This is a common problem in marriage.

After talking to each other for a while, they each went to study their own homework. I never thought that I would still have to do homework at such an old age?! But everyone was full of fighting spirit!

"I'm back," Jiuli pushed the door open, took a look, huh? No one? Then he walked inside.

Qiao Ran was sleeping soundly on the table and didn't hear the footsteps coming in. I don't know how long it was, but when I woke up, it was already dark outside.

There was a smell of rice coming from the kitchen. Qiao Ran wondered if his parents had come to cook for him again. Didn't they say they didn't need him anymore? They should just take good care of themselves in their old age?

Standing at the kitchen door, seeing Jiuli wearing an apron inside, he just stood there in a daze, rubbing his eyes.

He walked over, hugged Jiuli's waist from behind, and his eyes fell on the dishes on the chopping board, which were delicious and fragrant.

"When did you come back? Why didn't you call me?" Qiao Ran quickly reached out and took a piece of fried fish and stuffed it into his mouth, "Let me taste it." His eyes suddenly lit up.

"Since you were still sleeping, I didn't wake you up." Jiuli only glanced at the hand on her waist, "How is it? Is it okay?"

"Everything you cook is delicious. You can open a restaurant with your cooking skills." He praised generously, "I like it very much."

"It's not as good as you say. Go out and wash your hands and get ready for dinner." Jiuli smiled, "Did you stay up late again yesterday?"

"I slept late last night. You know inspiration is hard to come by," Qiao Ran yawned and went into the bathroom to wash his hands.

"Don't you go out for a walk? Staying at home every day?" Jiuli brought the dinner plates to the living room, placed them one by one, and then sat down.

"I'm not at home every day. I went to watch a band competition some time ago and took a photo of you." Qiao Ran wiped his hands and sat down opposite him. "I'll take you there one day."

"Okay, I'm not too busy these days, so I can accompany you." Jiuli picked up some food and put it in Qiao Ran's bowl.

"Then let's go for a walk?" Qiao Ran lowered his head to eat, "I haven't eaten your cooking for a long time. This smells so delicious."

"I'll cook for you when I'm free." Jiuli put down her chopsticks.

"I'll go wash the dishes. You eat some grapes and wait. We'll go downstairs for a walk later." Qiao Ran cleaned up the table.

Jiuli leaned against the kitchen door and watched Qiao Ran wash the dishes.

"You are becoming more and more virtuous now." Jiuli joked.

"Don't you see who I am?" Qiao Ran said proudly, "By the way, Chen Xun and Fang Hui had something to do a few days ago and lived next door to us. I gave gifts to my classmates before and didn't go."

He dried his hands, walked to the door, and put his hand on Jiuli's shoulder.

"You did a good job." As for how many years it had been since we last met, he didn't take it to heart. "Come downstairs for a walk?"

"Yes, take a walk after dinner and live to be ninety-nine," Qiao Ran said, putting his hand on Jiuli's shoulder and holding Jiuli's hand.

"Ninety-nine is not enough. We want to live a hundred years." Jiuli held Qiao Ran's hand with her backhand, and the two of them went downstairs while talking.

I walked slowly around the community, and after a while I sat on a wooden bench and watched a group of boys playing basketball across the street.

"Seeing them reminds me of you when you were young. You were quite good at playing basketball." Jiuli scratched Qiao Ran's palm with her fingertips.

"I remember that the most handsome one should be Chen Xun, right? Why do you like me?" Qiao Ran also had a smile in his eyes.

"You are more gentle and considerate. How could I ignore such a good person?" Jiuli praised.

"So I am so good to you?" Qiao Ran felt happy, because he knew that he was the most important.

"It's very good." Jiuli said affirmatively.

Qiao Ran smiled softly, raised his hand to pinch Jiuli's cheek, held her in his arms, and rubbed his chin against the top of her head.

"Since I'm so good, shouldn't you give me some reward today?" Qiao Ran said, touching Jiuli's waist.

"Which reward do you want?" Jiuli leaned comfortably on Qiao Ran, wondering what could such a reserved person say?

"Are you pretending to be stupid?" Qiao Ran was stunned. "Do you know which reward?" He pinched Jiuli's waist suggestively.

"We're outside, be careful." Jiuli raised her eyes and glanced at the gaze looking at her, then lowered her voice.

"Are you shy?" Qiao Ran leaned close to Jiuli, "Then let's go back and talk about it. Will you listen to me tonight?"

"How could I be shy?" Jiuli said seriously.

"You didn't. We've been out for a while. Come back?" Regret flashed in Qiao Ran's eyes. How nice it would be if he could listen to him at night?

"It's a bit cold now, so let's go back first." Jiuli pulled Qiao Ran up.

As soon as he entered the room, Qiao Ran pressed Jiuli against the door, bent down and rubbed Jiuli's neck, acting a little coquettishly.

"Why are you so enthusiastic today?" Jiuli was stunned for a moment, laughed out loud, and hooked her hand on Qiao Ran's shoulder.

"When have I ever been unenthusiastic towards you?" It was just a little more reserved before, repeating, "Then will you listen to me today?"

"Then I will sacrifice my life to accompany you?" Jiuli teased.

"No need, at most Yao will run away from home." Qiao Ran's frown soon relaxed, "Then I won't be polite."

"I miss you too." Jiuli hung her whole body on Qiao Ran and whispered something in Qiao Ran's ear.

Qiao Ran's eyes instantly became deep and aggressive. He then picked up Jiuli and carried her back to the bedroom. After entering, he kicked the door shut.

"continue?"

"Hmm? Go on."

"as you wish."

"it is good."

I could only vaguely hear a few simple words.

The moon set and the sun rose. Qiao Ran rarely stayed in bed. He looked down at Jiuli in his arms, smiling with satisfaction and tenderness.

"Jiuli, good morning." Qiao Ran noticed that Jiuli's eyes moved and spoke, brushing the loose hair around Jiuli's ears behind her head with his fingertips.

"Morning." Jiuli opened her eyes, her voice hoarse.

"How did you sleep last night?" Qiao Ran held her tightly in his arms and asked, "And what do you want to eat later?"

"It's all fine. I'm not picky about food." Having said this, Jiuli woke up completely and frowned when she moved slightly.

Her waist is really running away from home.

"Then you sleep a little longer, I'll do it." Qiao Ran leaned over and kissed Jiuli on the head, kicked off his slippers and went to the kitchen, humming a little tune and began to prepare breakfast.
