Quick Wear: Love still depends on two love brains
Chapter 275 Biologist vs. Mermaid King 10
The next day, Quan Jiuxi got up early.
The morning sun shone softly onto her bed through the thin gauze curtains.
She stretched herself, her eyes half asleep, her long seaweed-like hair casually scattered on the pillow, adding a touch of lazy beauty to her.
She stood up and put on a simple white silk nightgown, which was lightly tied with a ribbon at the waist, highlighting her slender waist.
Quan Jiuxi walked to the window and gently pushed it open. The breeze blew on his face, bringing a fresh breath.
Tonight is the day to go to the auction house.
When she came out, Yin was already basking in the sun, and Xiaoyi was telling a story beside him.
"We have guests coming today. Yin, change back into a fish tail and don't let anyone notice anything unusual."
"Okay, Jiu."
In the afternoon, Quan Jiuxi met the male protagonist of this world, Owen.
Irving wore a well-tailored dark blue suit and a light blue tie around his white shirt collar, looking tall and handsome.
His emerald green eyes were like deep lake water, seemingly cheerful and generous, but Quan Jiuxi caught a hint of imperceptible sarcasm from the subtle changes in his eyes.
Owen strode towards Quan Jiuxi with a warm smile on his face, revealing a row of white and neat teeth.
Her hair was combed meticulously, and a few strands of hair on her forehead added a touch of casualness.
However, Quan Jiuxi could feel that his smile did not reach his eyes, and behind the seemingly sincere expression seemed to be hidden deep scheming.
Kwon Jiuxi was wearing a lavender slim dress, the lace at the hem of the dress fluttering gently in the wind.
She wore a pearl necklace around her neck. The round pearls set off her fair skin, making her look even more noble and elegant.
She raised her chin slightly and looked at Owen with cold eyes.
Xiaoyi returned to the system space, and Yin changed back into a tail and returned to the water.
"Doctor, is this 001? You are so awesome." Owen said excitedly as he looked at Yin swimming in the water.
His eyes were wide open, full of curiosity and excitement.
His hands were clasped together tightly, and his body was slightly leaning forward, as if he couldn't wait to get closer and observe.
Irving looks like a serious and studious student, and his focused expression is hard to ignore.
He looked at Quan Jiuxi with eyes full of admiration, as if Quan Jiuxi was an extremely noble existence in his heart.
However, Quan Jiuxi remained unmoved. She just glanced at Owen lightly, with a faint smile on the corner of her mouth, which was filled with a bit of disdain.
Quan Jiuxi gently raised his hand and smoothed the hair around his ears, his movements elegant and calm.
Owen was still immersed in his curiosity about Yin and was completely unaware of Quan Jiuxi's scrutiny.
Quan Jiuxi looked at Owen's overly enthusiastic expression, narrowed her eyes slightly, and her cold voice broke the seemingly harmonious atmosphere:
"Owen, you seem particularly interested in 001?"
Owen's excitement subsided a little after hearing this, and he quickly explained, "Doctor, anyone would be curious about such a magical existence."
Quan Jiuxi said nothing more, but just stared quietly at the sound of water.
Yin lay quietly in the water, looking at Owen who was approaching Quan Jiuxi.
Owen was particularly excited when he met Yin's gaze.
"Doc, it looked at me."
Quan Jiuxi did not speak.
Seeing Quan Jiuxi's silence, Owen couldn't help but feel a little uneasy. He tried to break the deadlock again: "Doctor, this trip to the auction house will surely bring many surprises."
Quan Jiuxi turned his head and looked at him calmly: "I hope so. But some things may not go as you wish."
Owen laughed dryly, his eyes a little uncertain.
At this time, the sun gradually set in the west, and the golden afterglow shone on them.
Owen kept rubbing his hands, occasionally stealing a glance at Quan Jiuxi, wanting to say something but stopping himself.
"What do you want to say?" Quan Jiuxi asked directly.
"Doctor, you are currently researching 001. Can you please let me take a tube of blood back with me?"
Owen's voice was filled with a hint of urgency and anticipation. His eyes were fixed on Quan Jiuxi, revealing an unconcealable desire.
Quan Jiuxi frowned slightly, looked at Owen, and said coldly, imitating the original owner's words:
"What do you want with 001's blood? It's not something you can just take."
Owen showed a flattering smile on his face. He knew that Quan Jiuxi never liked others touching her things, but he was too curious about No. 001.
He quickly explained, "Doctor, please don't misunderstand me. I just think this blood might be helpful to my research. Maybe I can find some new clues."
Quan Jiuxi snorted, his tone full of suspicion: "Your research? How come I don't know what research you are doing related to this?"
Owen's smile grew somewhat stiff, his eyes began to evade, and he stammered, "This...this is some private exploration I conducted, and I haven't had time to report it to you yet."
Owen's smile grew somewhat stiff, his eyes began to evade, and he stammered, "This...this is some private exploration I conducted, and I haven't had time to report it to you yet."
"Really? Then tell me, I can help you." Quan Jiuxi crossed his arms across his chest, staring at Owen with a questioning look in his eyes.
"Doctor, it's not necessary now. I'll study it for a while..." Owen's voice became increasingly quiet, and he lowered his head slightly, not daring to meet Quan Jiuxi's gaze. His hands unconsciously tugged at the corners of his clothes, and he looked very nervous and embarrassed.
Quan Jiuxi snorted coldly, took a step forward, approached Owen and said, "Owen, you know, don't try to hide anything in front of me. If you don't say it now, you won't have the chance later."
Owen's body trembled slightly, he raised his head to look at Quan Jiuxi, then quickly lowered his head, bit his lip, and said after hesitating for a long time:
"Doctor, actually...actually, I want to study the possibility of combining 001's blood with a new type of drug. However, it is only a preliminary idea at the moment, and a lot of the data is incomplete."
Quan Jiuxi frowned, his eyes becoming even more severe. "Why didn't you tell me about this in advance? Do you think you can do it alone?"
Owen quickly waved his hands and explained in a panic: "Doctor, that's not what I meant. I'm just afraid that my ideas are immature and will disappoint you."
Quan Jiuxi was silent for a moment, then said coldly, "If something like this happens again in the future, you must report it to me immediately, and I will give you a bottle of blood later."
Owen felt relieved and nodded repeatedly. He always felt that something was different about the doctor.
But there is no change at all.
But the previous paranoia in his eyes seemed to have disappeared a little.
"Doctor, it's time. We should go to the auction. I heard there will be mermaids today."
