The academic genius started by accidentally flirting with the rich female principal.

From the initial promise to date someone to now declaring her intention to get married, Shen Yanru's transformation is not due to deep-seated loneliness, but rather stems from her contempt for Chen Yu, leading her to repeatedly cross her own bottom line.

In the eyes of the mature female professor... the project proposed by Chen Yu, from theoretical verification to material synthesis and the accumulation of experimental data, would take at least two years, and no mistakes could be made during those two years, otherwise all efforts would be in vain.

He said it would only take six months, which is completely contrary to scientific principles. Since he is so confident, give him an extra six months to complete the project within a year and pass the NS review.

As the new bet was established, Shen Yanru looked at the person in front of her who was in a daze, and a blush involuntarily rose on both sides of her cheeks. She turned her head slightly and said softly, "If you can't do it within a year, your doctoral degree will be extended for two years."

Chen Yu snapped out of his daze, looked at her, and shrank back... cautiously said, "Yanru... being over thirty-five is considered an advanced maternal age."

In an instant,

The air in the laboratory seemed to freeze.

Shen Yanru suddenly came to her senses, glaring at him fiercely, wishing she could devour him alive in the next second.

"How many times have I told you!"

"Don't call me by my name!"

"in addition..."

The mature female professor clenched her fists and gritted her teeth, saying, "While there are indeed certain risks associated with pregnancy for older mothers, these risks can be effectively reduced through standardized prenatal checkups and scientific management. If you don't understand, don't spout nonsense!"

"Yeah?"

"It's not a problem, medicine is so advanced these days." Chen Yu chuckled sheepishly, then said seriously, "But don't worry... I won't let you become an elderly mother."

Shen Yanru was furious. Ever since that night, she felt that someone was becoming more and more outrageous, but she didn't know how to deal with it. Finally, unable to bear it any longer, she reached out and pinched his arm hard, then twisted it as hard as she could.

"ah--"

"Ouch, ouch, ouch... I was wrong, I was wrong."

Chen Yu never expected Shen Yanru to make a move, especially since the way she pinched him was extremely painful—to be precise, the kind of pain that tears your heart apart.

"I was your mentor, after all, and I trained you for four years."

"Now you keep calling my name and...and saying all sorts of nonsense. Do you even see me?" Shen Yanru pinched him with both hands, questioning him as she pinched him.

"Wrong..."

"You were really wrong."

With a mournful face, Chen Yu pleaded, "I'm sorry... I won't do it again next time."

However, the mature female professor lost control, with only the word "revenge" on her mind, and remained unmoved by someone's pleas for mercy.

Seeing that Shen Yanru had no intention of letting him go, Chen Yu prepared to put up a small resistance, otherwise if she continued to pinch him like this, he would definitely be covered in bruises the next day.

Having decided on his counterattack, Chen Yu immediately took action.

He grabbed the mature female professor's wrists with both hands and gently pressed her against the wall, their bodies pressed tightly together.

The slight coolness of the wall seeped through her clothes, but it couldn't compare to the body heat emanating from the person close to her, which almost enveloped Shen Yanru. At this moment, her mind was a little dizzy, and she hadn't fully regained her senses.

at the same time,

Chen Yu's heart raced a little, his Adam's apple bobbed uncontrollably, and he unconsciously sniffed the air again. That familiar fragrance wafted into his nostrils once more. It was a scent he had smelled countless times around Shen Yanru, but had never been so close to.

Not only that... I could also feel the rise and fall of her chest, which was pressed tightly against mine, as if every breath was in sync with hers.

at last,

The mature female professor snapped out of her reverie, slowly raising her head to look at the person so close to her.

"you......"

Shen Yanru spoke, her voice lower than usual, with a hint of barely perceptible hoarseness. Her usual cold tone seemed to have shattered in the ambiguous air at this moment. She murmured, "I'm about to be crushed..."

"oh."

Chen Yu quickly released her and then stood obediently to the side.

The mature female professor, who regained her freedom, was not comforted; on the contrary, she felt an indescribable reluctance.

Shen Yanru quickly straightened her clothes and stared straight at him, suddenly realizing... she should have given him a good scolding, but at this moment she didn't know what to say.

"Want to go together?"

Seeing that she didn't speak for a long time, Chen Yu asked cautiously.

"Um..."

Shen Yanru responded.

The two left the laboratory together and walked towards the stairwell. They remained silent the whole way until they reached the main entrance of the laboratory building, where they stopped in unison.

"What just happened..."

"Just pretend nothing happened."

Shen Yanru deliberately put on a stern face and said coldly to Chen Yu, "From now on, call me Professor Shen at school."

After saying that,

They left in a hurry, without even looking back.

Watching her departing figure gradually disappear from his sight, Chen Yu pursed his lips... He couldn't help but recall the scene in the laboratory, and instantly felt a little scared.

"That was a bit reckless..."

"Fortunately, nothing serious happened."

"But then again... Shen Yanru is indeed quite cute."

"in addition..."

This unexpected encounter with the mature female professor made Chen Yu realize that this woman's magnanimity was in no way inferior to Wen Yan's; perhaps it was slightly weaker in terms of overall size, but it was still an existence that could rival everything.

How so?

I'm suddenly feeling a lot of pressure!

Chen Yu sighed deeply, and a line inexplicably flashed through his mind: "This punch of mine is the result of twenty years of training. Can you withstand it?"

I've forgotten where it comes from, but it's quite fitting for the current situation.

Shen Yanru had been suppressing her loneliness for thirty years, while Wen Yan had been suppressing her loneliness for thirty-five years.

I don't know if I can hold on...

......

......

Shen Yanru returned to her apartment and sat on the sofa, hugging a headrest.

The images in the laboratory kept flashing before her eyes, touching the deepest chords of her heart time and time again. The mature female professor had a feeling... that the desires she had sealed away were about to break free of their cages.

"What's going on..."

"I...I should have slapped him just now."

Being so disrespected by someone, he was bound to teach them a lesson, but... the result was that he landed safely.

The mature female professor grew angrier and angrier, and more and more regretful. Suddenly, she grabbed the headrest in her arms and punched it several times to vent her resentment.

"well--"

"What should we do if this continues?"

Shen Yanru never imagined that in just a few days, things would develop so rapidly in an uncontrollable direction, completely beyond her expectations. The key point is that her resistance to someone seems to be getting weaker and weaker, and there is even a tendency to indulge them.

Feeling too lonely?

Too lonely?

Suddenly a handsome young man with great strength barged in, and I... I couldn't control myself?
