Evan's heartbeat quickened, and he managed to keep his composure on his face.
Mary looked at the handsome and gentle all-round assistant and swallowed unconsciously.
She didn't have a partner like him yet, and she would do anything to make Evan fall in love with her.
Mary thought to herself, grabbing Evan's Spear tie and pulling him close to her. She opened her fiery red lips and said in a charming voice, "Mr. Evan, I need a partner as capable as you..."
Evan was so excited that his hands were shaking.
Just as he was about to hug this beautiful female in his arms, his heart suddenly trembled.
The next second, interstellar communication suddenly sounded.
He was stunned for a moment, then angrily wondered who was so ignorant as to call at such a critical moment. If it wasn't something important, he would have definitely sent the other person flying.
Evan gave Mary an apologetic look, glanced at the person on the caller ID, and subconsciously stood at attention.
When he answered the interstellar communication, his face had a look of despair.
Yet his voice was filled with absolute enthusiasm for his work: "Boss! Any instructions?"
I don’t know what the other party said, but the look of despair on Evan’s face went from three points to nine points.
"...So, boss, you called me because you want me to help you find...information on Starnet?"
Mary saw Evan clench his fists.
Just when she thought that this gentle male would throw the Star Brain terminal to the ground and stomp on it twice in the next second, she heard Evan's voice very respectfully.
"Yes, boss!"
Mary:? ? ?
After hanging up the phone, Evan turned to Mary and apologized: "Sorry, I still have some work to deal with. See you next time..."
Evan looked at Mary, whose face had darkened a little, and asked cautiously, "Can I come to see you next time?"
Mary felt the urge to slap herself.
At this moment, a green crystal with a faint glow appeared in front of her.
"This is the gift I originally prepared for you, but now it may have to become a gift of apology." Evan said sincerely.
Mary's eyes lit up. This was a fifth-level green crystal, which few of her partners could produce.
After absorbing a fifth-level crystal, a female's lifespan can be increased by about one year. Her resentment towards Evan immediately disappeared, and she even felt that he was much more pleasing to the eye than usual.
"Work is important, go get busy, and we'll meet again when you're free."
Evan sighed inwardly, thinking, that would probably have to wait until I lose my job...
……
After the accident in Silver Forest that day, Xuanqi seemed to know that Luo Xi didn't know how to face him recently, so he considerately avoided appearing in front of her.
Even in unavoidable situations, he would try his best to reduce his presence, at least not to make Rosie feel uncomfortable.
Rosie secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
And this tone was raised again when she walked into the cooking class again.
Ivan's mischief last time was still fresh in her mind, making her a little nervous about this class.
However, halfway through the course, it was somewhat unexpected that Ivan was unusually quiet today, and followed Professor Rosie's steps in an obedient manner.
Rosie was a little suspicious. Has Ivan changed his personality?
But no matter what, it would be best if he could attend class obediently.
However, before Rosie could be happy for long, she heard a scream in the classroom.
Many people stopped what they were doing and looked over, only to see Ivan covering his hand.
There was a small cut on the finger and blood was oozing out.
This was her class, and as a teacher, she naturally couldn't just sit back and watch something like this happen.
Luo Xi hurried over. She had often encountered this kind of situation in the kitchen when she was on Earth, so of course she knew how to deal with it. Moreover, she had a first aid kit in her space button. "Student Ivan, I'll give you a simple disinfection to stop the bleeding, and then we'll go to the school hospital and let the doctor treat you. It's going to be a little painful, so bear with it for now."
Rosie lowered her head as she spoke, concentrating on disinfecting Ivan's fingers to stop the bleeding.
A few strands of hair fell by her ears, swaying slightly with her movements.
Above Rosie's head, Ivan was staring at her intently, his gaze focused and gentle. He carefully observed Rosie's soft and beautiful profile, and an inexplicable throbbing surged in his heart.
Rosie could feel a burning gaze that seemed to be real, and she naturally knew who it came from.
She didn't dare to look up, for fear that she would become even more at a loss if she met the other person's gaze.
She subconsciously quickened her hand movements, wanting only to end this awkward and ambiguous atmosphere as soon as possible.
Having Xuanqi at home is already enough of a headache for her, and she doesn't want to get into any more romantic troubles.
The students around exchanged glances with each other, whispered about something, and looked at the two of them with gossip and curiosity.
Just as the discussions were getting louder, Ivan suddenly raised his head, and a sharp look made the whole classroom quiet down instantly.
After Luo Xi simply bandaged Ivan's wound, she looked up and said, "Okay, this is all I can do. I'll take you to see a doctor." She stood up, clapped her hands, and turned to the other students, saying, "You guys continue with your classes. I'll take him to the school hospital for treatment."
After saying that, he walked out first, and Ivan didn't even look at anyone else, and immediately followed Rosie's pace.
After the other students watched them leave, they immediately became excited and continued their previous discussion:
"A sixth-level psychic was actually scratched by a kitchen knife. Isn't this too outrageous?"
"Squad leader, this wave of seeking attention and comfort is too obvious."
"That's right, the monitor might as well just say he can't eat and let the teacher feed him!"
"I recorded what we just said. You name your price for the hush money. Otherwise, I can't guarantee that this video won't appear on the monitor's brain."
"...You are cruel!"
