It wasn't an apple that hit Newton.

Faced with this unimaginable and blatant slander against him, an innocent young man, Li Cheng's first reaction was naturally shock rather than anger: "Hey, do you know what you're saying?"

"of course I know."

The blonde girl in the white lab coat raised her chin, her delicate face radiating confidence and rationality—her sadness was a thing of the past, and standing here now was Miss Newton, who was destined to become a great scientist.

"Although for living beings, reproduction is an instinct imprinted on the male body, and they will exhaust their abilities to find suitable females in an attempt to continue their bloodline... But Li Cheng, your situation has far exceeded the indicators of a living being trying to continue its bloodline. Your need for reproductive behavior rather than reproduction itself exceeds the normal level of a human male, reaching a level of debauchery."

"This situation is abnormal. Your attempt to vent your abnormally high level of evil desires on the female is an extremely selfish and wrong behavior, not the female's fault."

As Newton finished his argument, a faint blush spread across his cheeks and neck, and his arms, which were crossed over his chest, tightened unconsciously, as if trying to protect his body as the over-exploited female.

"...Wait a moment."

Li Cheng first angrily stopped Newton's academic report, then turned to look at Susie next to him—luckily, this academically challenged girl who had dropped out of prenatal education couldn't understand what Newton was talking about, and at this moment she tried her best to pretend to understand, nodding seriously.

"You go out first." He gestured with his chin towards the door.

"Are you going out?"

Susie looked left and right somewhat reluctantly.

Although she couldn't understand it, it was quite interesting, and she wanted to listen to it a little longer.

"Get out." Li Cheng repeated. He really didn't want anyone to overhear such a private conversation, no matter how close they were to him.

"Oh......"

Susie then left with heavy steps, her face full of reluctance.

That wizard is really something. She was known for her tight-lipped nature when she was in the village, but when the two of them chatted, she deliberately avoided talking to her. How petty of her!

crunch--

The door to Laboratory F was closed, and only two people remained inside.

Seeing that the person in the way had left, Li Cheng, feeling a mix of puzzlement, speechlessness, confusion, and concern, walked over and asked, "Did something happen to you?"

"I am fine."

Newton turned his face away and refused to look at him.

Seeing her reaction, Li Cheng was certain that Newton must have been provoked, otherwise why would he be so outrageously aggressive today, even shamelessly uttering words like "licentious"?

But what exactly is the stimulus?

Li Cheng lowered his head and fell into deep thought. After all, he knew nothing about Miss Newton's inner thoughts during that period, so even he couldn't guess them at once.

After racking his brains, Li Cheng suddenly slapped his forehead, as if realizing something, and reached out his arms to pick up the blonde girl who was peeking at him.

What are you doing?

Newton immediately lost his composure, feeling embarrassed and annoyed, and wanted to kick him.

She was discussing the research findings very seriously, as it concerned their future, and yet this lewd man was trying to touch her inappropriately again!

"I will prove your research is correct through practice."

"Huh?"

At that moment, Miss Newton seemed to be struck by a shock, and said blankly, "You mean... it's not that you're so beautiful, it's just that I'm too good-looking?"

Li Cheng nodded decisively and said, "Yes, it's because you're so cute that I couldn't help myself."

************************************************

Newton gently jumped to the ground and stretched his limbs briefly.

Although my body still feels tingly and weak, it doesn't hinder my activities. Unlike before, I don't feel sore all over. On the contrary, I'm actually enjoying this tired but relaxed feeling, and it even feels a little warm.

Overall, it was very comfortable.

If it had been like this a few days ago, perhaps she wouldn't have been so angry.

As he pondered, Newton suddenly remembered what Li Cheng had just said: he wasn't actually a fan of hers; he only couldn't resist because she was so adorable. He lowered his head and fell into deep thought.

It's perfectly normal for Miss Newton to be lovely, and it's also understandable that Li Cheng would like her.

That seems to make sense...?

Although somewhat satisfied with this explanation, the little girl frowned in distress.

Originally, she wanted to use the experiment to prove that Li Cheng's infidelity was not her fault, but that he was too much of a jerk. Then, she would use this as a reason to demand that he break off his relationship with that hateful little girl, forbid him from flirting with other girls, and allow him to only like her.

But after hearing those few words, Newton's initial line of thought was overturned, and the results of his research were slightly altered.

The reason Li Cheng went so far wasn't because he was too arrogant, but because she was too cute.

In other words...

Was she the one who was at fault?

Chapter 355 Good Brothers

Let's put aside Newton's dilemma for now.

After spending the last half day thoroughly arranging the development plan for the territory, Li Cheng packed some luggage and prepared to leave again.

This time he went to London, but he wasn't alone.

The day before yesterday, on his way to Lincoln, Li Cheng stopped by to visit one of his few friends—Anne Stoller.

Compared to Li Cheng, Annie, that silly girl, has really had a stroke of good luck, and she's been doing incredibly well at Lincoln lately.

Relying on advanced management experience and innovative scripts brought from London, coupled with her own high popularity, and riding the wave of Li Cheng's downfall of the Garcia family, Annie achieved three strokes of good fortune in a row, successfully occupying the top of the Lincoln theater ecosystem. She has now transformed the once nearly bankrupt Little Hollywood Theater into Lincoln's most famous theater.

As the saying goes, "Wealth and honor without returning to one's hometown is like wearing fine clothes at night."

Having achieved her life goals, Annie, who was bored out of her mind, decided that she should go home to see her father. So she called up dozens of her close friends and buddies and prepared to go home and show off in the next couple of days.

Li Cheng happened to be planning a trip to London, so they decided to go together.

Compared to being alone.

It would be more lively to travel with Anne and her group, and there would be someone to look out for them on the way.

Faced with Li Cheng packing his bags and leaving again, aside from Louise being slightly frightened by the "Empresses in the Palace" plot Hook had used to scare her, the other girls in the family remained calm. One particular mischievous child, however, was laughing so hard she was practically dizzy.

pity.

She's so young! He had already assigned her the tasks and given them to Lavoisier, ensuring her schedule was packed every day!

......

port.

Waterways are the preferred mode of transportation due to their speed and comfort.

Li Cheng carried a small suitcase and headed towards the agreed-upon location.

At the agreed meeting point, several men and women had already gathered, the oldest being twenty-six years old and the youngest appearing to be no more than fourteen. Standing in the very center of this group was someone who clearly acted as a leader.

It's Anne.

She wore a white long-sleeved shirt on her upper body and a pair of wide-legged trousers for easy movement on her lower body. This outfit, which was not quite in line with the standards of women in this era, coupled with her neatly cut light brown short hair, made her look at first glance like a rather handsome young man, except that her pectoral muscles were a little exaggerated.

"Over here, over here!"

Annie noticed Li Cheng at that moment and immediately waved enthusiastically at him. But whether she was worried that Li Cheng couldn't hear her or felt that just shouting wasn't enough, she simply pushed aside her good friend who was blocking her way and ran towards Li Cheng's location.

When she arrived in front of Li Cheng without blushing or panting, her first action was to give him a punch on the shoulder without any hesitation: "Ha, you're the last one here!"

"You've arrived too early."

Li Cheng shrugged helplessly at the spot where he had been hit and asked, "Which ship are we taking back to London?"

Annie, whom we haven't seen in a while, looks the same as before, except that her skin tone seems to have darkened slightly, with a more noticeable healthy tan. By the way, dark skin doesn't equal Ni Ge. As the saying goes, fair skin covers a hundred flaws, and it's very difficult to truly pull off tanned skin. It requires the right temperament and facial features; otherwise, even the most stunning looks can instantly collapse if you get darker.

In this respect, Anne is quite a good match; at least for her, a tan complexion is not a disadvantage.

While the two were having a brief conversation, the dozen or so people behind them were also whispering among themselves.

"The boss's lover?"

"I saw him once before; he was this fair-skinned, delicate-looking young man,"

???

Downwind, Li Cheng, who heard everything, was filled with questions.

He remembered that he had temporarily pretended to be Annie's boyfriend because she was being harassed by the Garcia family. How come the Garcia family has been gone for so long, and he's still calling her his lover? So you never clarified anything to anyone?

Li Cheng gestured to the group of onlookers with his eyes and asked, puzzled, "Why are you still telling people we're a couple?"

"There's no other way, otherwise people would keep coming to harass me, which is very troublesome."

Anne scratched her brown, tousled hair and explained casually.
