Chapter 345: 254 The smell of other men~_3

Jiang Xuan: "..."

He heard it.

Xia Ye was fearless of both heaven and earth, but unless necessary, he still preferred not to anger this old entity.

Despite the old entity’s usual sense of justice, helping him with transferring spiritual energy and even planning to sacrifice himself to join him in dual cultivation,

he had a big temper when stirred up, especially fierce when he had prohibited her from dual cultivation with other Daoist companions in the past!

Indeed, how could someone who firmly held the position of the Heavenly Dao be of a saintly kind?

Although Xia Ye didn’t know exactly why Jiang Xuan was angry now, from his words, it was clear he minded the scent of Shen Zhixi on her.

This was manageable...

On Jiang Xuan’s side, while still searching his mind for the owner of the scent, he suddenly felt warmth in his chest.

Looking down, he saw the little ancestor’s face firmly pressed against his body, and before he could react, rubbing chaotically through his shirt.

Jiang Xuan’s body tensed instantly, his Adam’s apple visibly rolling.

But actually, Xia Ye had only rubbed for a few seconds and quickly lifted her head again: "Smell again, is there no other man’s scent on me now?"

Jiang Xuan: ...

What kind of method is this to appease someone?

He... liked it!

Unnoticed by them, on a nearby path, two girls were walking toward them.

"I wonder what delicious food the cafeteria will have for lunch today?"

"Yeah, the daily menu always keeps one looking forward!"

The newcomers were none other than Lu Beibei and Qi Ran.

Lu Beibei, with a lively step and large eyes scanning her surroundings, suddenly noticed two vaguely discernible figures in a small grove nearby.

It seemed to be a man and a woman.

The two stood very close, their actions affectionate.

Lu Beibei, having never had a boyfriend, was quite curious about such matters; she quietly stepped forward, wanting to see what they were doing—

But just at the critical moment, Qi Ran suddenly covered her eyes, pulling her toward the cafeteria: "No peeking, kiddo, we’re already late, your idol might already be waiting for you in the cafeteria..."

In the afternoon, freshmen from the Department of Biomedical Sciences were informed to gather in the lab on the top floor of Wenxue Building.

At first, the students were quite resentful, complaining that a sudden lab session added to their weekend afternoon would inevitably interfere with their original plans.

However, later, when they saw on the academic system that the lab session would be conducted by Professor Bian, all their complaints turned into anticipation.

Especially Qi Ran, who was a true-blue fan of Professor Bian, the news that she could attend a lab session led by him so soon was exhilarating like a fangirl’s successful celebrity chase, making her lively and animated.

The students arrived at the lab ahead of schedule, Xia Ye included, who had come early with Qi Ran.

Professor Bian hadn’t arrived yet, so Xia Ye took out her book, its pages yellowed and old, almost crumbling.

The other students were also making preparations, studying and discussing the various sophisticated lab equipment.

Yang Qiange had sent a WeChat message specifically to Shen Zhiqiao, wanting to ask her about anything to watch out for in Professor Bian’s lab session.

Unfortunately, the senior didn’t reply to her this time.

But soon, when Professor Bian entered the lab in a white lab coat, Yang Qiange understood why her senior hadn’t replied earlier.

Because her senior was today’s assistant to Professor Bian.

Yang Qiange smiled.

Shen Zhiqiao had already committed to this role; the notes she had taken previous were for the experiments to be conducted today, and as a sophomore top of her class and Professor Bian’s favorite student, this was naturally her responsibility.

Even working as Professor Bian’s assistant provided ample learning opportunities.

As soon as Professor Bian and Shen Zhiqiao entered, their eyes simultaneously drifted over to Xia Ye.

But their moods were distinctly different.

Professor Bian, upon seeing Xia Ye, felt an overwhelming surge of emotion, as if the Ancestral Master had manifested, finding everything about her endearing.

Whereas Shen Zhiqiao, still thinking about her brother’s earlier demeanor towards Xia Ye and also recalling how Professor Bian seemed to have treated Xia Ye well before,

couldn’t help but take notice.

Today, she wanted to see for herself what was so extraordinary about Xia Ye.

Because of Xia Ye, Professor Bian was notably more approachable today, first introducing himself and then introducing Shen Zhiqiao to the students.

The boys who had previously couldn’t help hitting on Shen Zhiqiao, now acted noticeably calmer and composed because of Xia Ye’s presence.

Professor Bian nodded, leading them first to the cold storage to view the valuable sample for today’s experiment:

It was a blue, semi-transparent leaf specimen—
