Across Deep Space: Four Men and a Play

Li Shen took off his glasses, sat in the office chair and rubbed his eyebrows.

He sent her a message right after he finished an operation.

Xia Jiumeng felt inexplicably guilty when she saw Shen Xinghui sleeping with her little feet in his arms.

[Xia Xia: Lying on the sofa and playing.]

[Xia Xia: Doctor Li, are you going to work overtime today?]

It's already normal working hours, and I don't know if he will come today.

Come to think of it, it seems that Li Shen comes directly to her house after get off work recently, and then he "coincidentally" meets Shen Xinghui.

Both of them seem to have indifferent personalities, but in fact, neither of them would give in to the other. As long as there is a chance, they would not give the other the chance to be "alone" with her.

If she knew that Shen Xinghui was still in her house and even sleeping soundly with her in his arms, I'm afraid this cat would get angry immediately.

[Li Shen: Not sure. We have another consultation. We need to see the situation first.]

Li Shen took a sip of the coffee on the table and replied.

As the hospital's best cardiac surgeon and director, his weekday appointments and consultations are fully booked, and sometimes he even has open classes or other activities on weekends. His last trip to Luoxia City was an exception.

I'm afraid I won't have much time left this time.

Although he also wanted to spend more time with her.

[Xia Xia: Okay, by the way, have you made plans for your day off?]

Xia Jiumeng asked, it turned out that Li Shen was resting on the weekend, but the trip to Luoxia City delayed a lot of his work, so he has been working overtime since he came back.

He didn't have any rest on weekends, but he wasn't an iron man, so the hospital would definitely give him some time off.

She wanted to know when he would take a day off so that she could take him to the 109 experimental base.

She needed to take them all to the experimental base so that they wouldn't be anxious when she disappeared.

Li Shen looked at the duty roster on his computer desktop and thought for a moment. [Li Shen: You can have half a day off on Wednesday.]

[Xia Xia: Okay, come find me when the time comes, and I'll take you to see my lab. For many subsequent experiments, I might need to go to the lab because I don't have enough space at home.]

Li Shen was a little surprised. Experimental base?

As someone who had participated in experimental missions, he clearly knew the value of an experimental base, which was not something that a single hunter like her could create.

Xia Jiumeng, aware of Li Shen's confusion, took the initiative to explain, "Xia Xia: You know the value of my potions. I told you before that I have a partner. He 'funded' the construction of that base and the equipment and furnishing of my home studio. All subsequent potions will be produced in collaboration with him."

[Xia Xia: But don't worry, he's a very nice person.]

Li Shen narrowed his eyes slightly as he looked at her message, feeling an indescribable sense of crisis in his heart.

He took a sip of tea to suppress the strange feeling. As a doctor, he knew best the value of Xia Jiumeng's medicine. It was normal for someone to be eager to cooperate with her at any cost.

However, I don’t know who was so discerning that he actually started working with her so early.

I don't know when we met, but it seems like I have indeed "missed" a lot over the years.

【Li Shen: I understand.】

[Li Shen: I'm going to a consultation. I'll let you know if I get off work on time.]

[Xia Xia: OK~]

When Xia Jiumeng read the message, she suddenly felt like a young wife waiting for her husband to get off work.

He shook his head to get rid of this strange thought.

What little wife? She is a grown-up woman.
