Chapter 211: Chapter 189 The Laboratory is Built

After sorting out Yu Yueying’s matter, it was already past 2 p.m. Li Chen was too lazy to go back to the company, so he headed directly to the villa.

Back at the villa, Li Chen found Lin Xiaoxiao sitting on the couch, barefooted, watching TV.

Instantly, Li Chen’s eyes lit up because Lin Xiaoxiao was dressed in a really cool way, with a short top and even shorter shorts for her lower body.

"Brother-in-law, you’re here, come watch TV with me." Lin Xiaoxiao turned her head and saw Li Chen, quickly beckoning him over.

How could he miss out on such visual delight?

As for whether to watch the TV or the person, was there even a need to ask?

Li Chen sat on the sofa beside Lin Xiaoxiao without any formality, immediately picking up the fruit from the table and began to eat.

"Xiaoxiao, aren’t you afraid of attracting wolves by dressing so sexily?" Li Chen’s gaze roamed unabashedly over Lin Xiaoxiao’s body.

"Brother-in-law, I think you’re the wolf here," Lin Xiaoxiao said with an incredulous tone.

"Do I look like that sort of person?" Li Chen replied righteously and indignantly. Where can you find someone as upright as me?

"You don’t just look like one, you are one," Lin Xiaoxiao glanced at Li Chen. "Brother-in-law, do I have a hot body?"

Li Chen looked Lin Xiaoxiao up and down—did her figure even require a mention?

"You can definitely compete with your sister," Li Chen said, taking a bite of an apple.

Lin Xiaoxiao couldn’t help but pout her lips when she heard Li Chen compare her to her sister.

Li Chen’s eyes wandered over Lin Xiaoxiao’s long legs and suddenly turned, "Xiaoxiao, do you need me to give you a massage?"

"Massage?" Lin Xiaoxiao looked at Li Chen with a smile and couldn’t help but scoff internally. She knew exactly what her brother-in-law meant.

But she didn’t mind Li Chen "taking advantage" of her.

"Well, if it’s a massage you want to give," Lin Xiaoxiao sat directly on the couch, placing her feet on Li Chen’s lap.

"Brother-in-law, you’ll have to work hard, start with my feet," Lin Xiaoxiao said contentedly.

Li Chen grasped Lin Xiaoxiao’s feet, feeling as if he were holding a little elf.

"Xiaoxiao, how’s your clothing store doing?" Li Chen asked while his hands massaged the soles of Lin Xiaoxiao’s feet.

"It’s doing pretty well," Lin Xiaoxiao felt extremely comfortable from her soles, yet it made her want to laugh.

"Brother-in-law, don’t tickle me, I’m ticklish," Lin Xiaoxiao felt an increasing itch under her feet and hurriedly said so.

"Ticklish?" Li Chen’s lips curled into a slight smile. "Why would you be ticklish, Xiaoxiao?"

No sooner had he finished speaking than Li Chen’s hands started to gently tickle her.

"Brother-in-law, no, stop, haha, hahaha," Lin Xiaoxiao couldn’t help but burst into laughter, and Li Chen watched as she laughed uncontrollably.

"Haha, brother-in-law, haha, please, please stop tickling," Lin Xiaoxiao’s legs were already moving uncontrollably.

"I am just giving you a massage," Li Chen said with a mischievous laugh.

"Then brother-in-law, don’t, don’t," Lin Xiaoxiao’s words carried a different connotation, heating up Li Chen’s blood.

However, Li Chen knew when to stop.

Seeing Li Chen stop tickling her, Lin Xiaoxiao also breathed a sigh of relief; she really couldn’t stand being tickled.

Grabbing a fruit, Lin Xiaoxiao asked, "Brother-in-law, why are you back? Have you finished with work at the company?"

As she bit into the fruit and waited for Li Chen’s reply, she noticed that Li Chen was staring straight at her.

"What’s wrong? Do I have a pimple on my face?" Lin Xiaoxiao inquired with confusion.

"Xiaoxiao, that apple—I bit into it," Li Chen said.

"Ah?" Lin Xiaoxiao was startled, then realized that the apple in her hand indeed had a bite taken out of it, complete with a missing chunk.

At this moment, Lin Xiaoxiao’s face turned beet red. Wasn’t this the same as an indirect kiss?

"Xiaoxiao, it doesn’t really matter," Li Chen chuckled. "What’s mine is yours anyway, right?"

Lin Xiaoxiao gave him a look, then thinking for a moment, decided it really didn’t matter.

"Then I won’t eat it," Lin Xiaoxiao pouted. "It would make more sense for you to eat what’s mine."

"Okay, then, Xiaoxiao, will you feed me?" Li Chen suddenly moved closer to Lin Xiaoxiao, a smile at the corner of his mouth.

Hearing the implicit meaning in Li Chen’s words, Lin Xiaoxiao was suddenly startled, and an unusual atmosphere quickly developed between them.

"Oh my, brother-in-law, get away," Lin Xiaoxiao pushed Li Chen away, dissipating the air between them.

Li Chen continued the massage, and Lin Xiaoxiao returned to watching TV.

Half an hour later, Li Chen went upstairs, and Lin Xiaoxiao, watching him ascend, inexplicably heaved a sigh of relief.

Li Chen went upstairs and answered a call. Turns out, Third Grandpa had called him.

"Third Grandpa, what’s up?" Li Chen was full of confusion; Third Grandpa normally didn’t call him directly.

"Cheen, it’s like this, a few of us are going out for a while, and it’s likely to last about a month," Third Grandpa said on the other end of the line.

"What are you going to do?" Li Chen was even more puzzled. The elderly men usually stayed in Panlong Village and he hadn’t heard of them going out together before.

"We’re off to a Relic to look for some things," Third Grandpa explained. "All of us will be going, so during this month, when we’re not around, you need to be careful on your own."

"I will be, don’t worry about me, Third Grandpa," Li Chen said.

"Alright, that’s all then," Third Grandpa hung up the phone.

Li Chen didn’t take the matter to heart, given that Third Grandpa and the others were somewhat secretive and mystical. He only knew that the grandpas were very powerful, but how powerful? He truly had no idea.

Li Chen went back into his room, turned on the computer, logged into the chatroom, and contacted Alice.

It didn’t take long for Alice’s figure to appear on the screen.

Still featuring her massive papaya breasts and frivolous language.

"Cheen, you haven’t contacted me in so long," Alice’s words were filled with a trace of resentment.

"How are things at the lab?" Li Chen asked directly.

Upon hearing Li Chen ask about business matters, Alice nodded, "It’s already built."
