w brought a set of bowls and chopsticks to Her Highness. With the doctor here, they would have to eat Yan country's home-cooked food. In front of Theresa was a dish of lightly boiled cabbage in salt water, sprinkled with some golden scallion oil crisps.

Theresa's favorite dish is the only one he can cook, and Theresa only eats what he cooks.

Theresa glanced at him carefully. Su Qi was talking to Angelina beside him and did not notice the look from Theresa.

There was a subtle silence at the table because of Theresa's arrival, but Huafarin soon interrupted the atmosphere. The white-haired and white-skinned blood demon clamored to go to Victoria's beach to play, and the doctor asked her, "Aren't you afraid of the sun killing you, blood demon?"

"Besides, I'm not really on vacation here. I still have a lot of official business to do tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow is the Longmen Talks. Don't just play around."

"Official matters can be left to Tallulah and the others. As long as the general direction is taken by the Doctor, it's fine. The Governor of Londinium did give me a few privileged beach days recently. It's time for the Doctor to relax after all these years." Theresa spoke up, glanced at Rosalina next to the Doctor, and continued when she saw that the kitten didn't say anything.

"It's a rare opportunity for the doctor to come to Londinium, so I have to do my best to be a good host."

Su Qi glanced at Theresa. The woman with pink and white hair lowered her eyelids and spoke in a gentle voice. The doctor knew that the girl had adjusted her state. Thinking about the work situation this afternoon, he felt that there were indeed not too many important issues that required him to make decisions. It would be nice to go out and have a rest.

"As for you guys, if Huafalin is the only one who wants to go, let her go alone."

"Want to swim." Skadi thought to herself that she had prepared a great swimsuit.

"I want to accompany the Doctor for a walk on the beach." Laurentina also nodded.

Naturally, the Deep Sea Team would not object. Xingxiong thought that there would be bonfires and beer on the beach, and they could do whatever they wanted after drinking, so he agreed with a smile. Huang was just a little worried about the orders Kal'tsit had given her, and worried that the Doctor would be in danger on the beach. However, with Skadi and Laurentina around, if the Doctor still got into trouble in the sea, no one could protect him.

Angelina said she would listen to the doctor. The doctor looked at Rosalind. Rosalind glanced at the people at the table who were eager to try, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

"It just so happens that I want to go too, Doctor. Please help me pick out a swimsuit tonight."

Huafalin suddenly didn't want to go anymore.

Nothing unexpected happened. It was a default rule that the person who cooked did not have to wash the dishes. It was very strange. Rhodes Island had become such a mess that since the people who washed the dishes and cooked the dishes were still responsible for it, no one had thought of hiring maids to help with the work. It was also quite strange.

After dinner, the doctor chatted with Angelina for a while, but his eyes kept glancing at his and Rosalinha's room on the second floor. Angelina laughed in her heart, "Go and keep Rosalinha company. But, doctor, I also have a nice swimsuit, the kind you can't imagine."

After being released by Angelina, the doctor rushed to his room in a hurry. He had a vague premonition that tonight would be a day of growth.

Outside the high walls of Londinium, Saria, who did not receive Su Qi's call, took off her helmet, leaned over the motorcycle with her tall body swaying in the wind, her pair of slightly narrowed cold eyes revealing a bit of anger.

The teacher is here.

Chapter 99: Su Qi, stay away from me

"Hello, teacher." He stood at the door and looked at the silver-haired woman with a straight back and upright sitting posture in the control center.

Today, Saria tied her hair into a high ponytail, revealing her graceful and slender swan neck. She picked up the documents and sat at the table, quiet and cold, raising her eyes slightly to look at her student at the door.

Su Qi had just won a battle and had just accepted the cooperation signature of the other party's highest government in the Colombian Legislative Council Hall a few hours ago. He was wearing a straight and tight black suit, his bangs were combed back, and he looked neat and tidy. The youthfulness and vigor of young people were so obvious in him that they attracted people's attention.

He has been busy with strategy recently and often doesn't return to Rhodes Island for several weeks. Saria occasionally comes to the control center to help him deal with some trivial matters and odds and ends, and she always sees that his good news has come from somewhere.

The white-faced owl said that he always reported good news but not bad news, but Saria did not comment.

"Please sit down." Without saying anything more, Saria lowered her head and continued to work.

She was his teacher, and even though the current doctor no longer needed any instruction from her in academics or conducting, she was still his teacher, and this was the relationship between the two that had never changed.

"What are you looking at?" The man seemed to be in a good mood. He moved closer to the silver-haired woman, leaned down and curiously looked at the document in Saria's hand.

The weather was surprisingly good. Because it was early summer, Saria did not turn on the air conditioner, but simply opened the windows wide. The man stood quietly behind Saria, casting a shadow on the table.

It was so close that Serai glanced at the outline of the man's shadow silently and just said lightly.

"I'm looking at the injury reports of Originium patients you submitted during the past few operations, and calculating how many more casualties Rhodes Island can bear."

"Well, I have reached an agreement with Columbia on a number of complementary medical resources. I may need you to pay more attention to them during this period." Su Qi just nodded, leaned forward, and said in a puzzled tone: "Teacher, what do the circles you drew mean? I don't see anything special about these places that are worth circling."

With the fragrance, Saria smelled the faint lingering scent on him, without saying much, Saria just leaned to the side and looked at him sideways.

Su Qi also looked at his teacher, wondering why she was so awkward, as if she was afraid of touching him.

"Su Qi, you're too close, stay away from me."

"Oh, okay, okay." The Doctor reacted and stepped back a few steps, with a hint of "as expected" in his eyes, but he didn't say much or explain anything.

Saria didn't say much, but her pair of cold orange phoenix eyes glanced at Su Qi up and down a few times, and her indifferent face, which had remained unchanged for thousands of years, was expressionless as usual.

"You smell so good."

Su Qi was stunned. He didn't expect that the reason why Saria avoided him just now was because of this. He relaxed a little and said with a smile.

"Probably the smell of Sophora japonica."

"Winged-pod Sophora japonica?" Saria thought about it, but didn't think of any related plants at the first time. She was a little confused as to why Su Qi answered so confidently.

"Well, on the way back from Columbia, I came across a large winged locust tree. The white drooping chrysanthemums that filled the tree's crown were very beautiful, so I stayed there for a while."

"Does it look good?" Saria looked at his smiling and nostalgic expression, feeling happy in her heart, and asked him softly.

"Well, the fragrant building is full of flowers, and the inflorescences are very full." The doctor nodded, said nothing more, and returned to his desk in the control center.

The two began to work in silence again. This was how the master and apprentice got along with each other. They would talk when there was something to talk about, and not waste time when there was nothing to talk about.

In fact, Saria had a lot of things she wanted to ask him. She was not on the first list of people accompanying him in this strategic operation, and she missed many opportunities to be with him in dangerous moments. The first thing Saria did when she woke up every day during this period was to read the combat report of the day to see if he was in danger again, whether he had escaped danger, or was still in a critical condition.

Hemer said that Saria has been quite humane these days, which is a bit different from her previous image of being impartial and not talking about personal feelings. However, she has received a lot of praise from her colleagues in the Medical Department and the Heavy Equipment Department.

Saria didn't know why she had been so mild-tempered a few days ago. It seemed that as long as the situation and environment on her side could be more stable, he would be able to focus more on the front line. It could be considered as praying for him.

Saria also wanted to ask his sister. After hearing from Amiya that Kal'tsit and Shining had some friction, Saria did not ask in detail, but only vaguely knew that the matter was related to Su Qi.

Saria also heard that the doctor had been humiliated by Chen again. She wanted to tell the doctor that there was no need to pay attention to these love affairs between men and women, but this was obviously not something she, as a teacher, should interfere with.

Saria became a little annoyed again. She stopped the meaningless doodling in her hands and looked carefully at the man who was working seriously with his head down at the desk.

He is a man now, not a boy. He has grown up a lot and is no longer the little boy who would blush when he was stared at by me.

Saria heard that the outside world is now rumored that Dr. Rhodes Island is a rare talent, not only good-looking but also romantic and loyal. Romantic and loyal sounds a bit contradictory, but it is very appropriate to use it to describe him.

Saria thought of what Ifrit said a few days ago that he wanted to be with the Doctor when he grew up. After Saria scolded him, Ifrit retorted and said that even as a teacher you cannot prevent your students from being happy.

Saria asked Ifrit if she knew what happiness was.

Charmander was also stubborn. He turned his head and said, "Having Homer and you by her side, and the doctor willing to accompany her, is called happiness."

"Ifrit misses you a lot." Saria said suddenly.

"How can a child know whether she misses someone or not? It's just that there was no one to eat delicious food with her or play with her for a while, so she felt she missed it. In fact, she missed those delicious and fun things, and people were just incidental."

Saria's tone paused, she was speechless after his rebuttal, and felt annoyed for a moment, so she stopped talking to him.

Saria went back to the medical department with a heavy heart to deal with some things. The medical department was very busy today because some operators who accompanied the doctor had to come to the medical department for examination. The hall was full of chatter, and the girls and boys formed several small circles, chattering about something.

Saria did not spoil the fun of these young people at this time, but just walked through the crowd and smelled a hint of floral fragrance when passing by Shining.

"Is it the Winged Sophora japonica?" Saria stopped and looked at Shining and said.

The white-haired Sarkaz had a ruddy complexion and watery eyes. He smiled in surprise and replied, "Director Saria is well-informed and not wrong at all."

Chapter 100: Teacher, You Hurt Me

The fingers trembled slightly, and were immediately grasped by the woman herself. Saria forcedly raised the corners of her mouth and slowed down her voice.

"The smell of the winged pod locust tree is quite unique and rare, so it is more memorable."

Shining also smiled. She glanced at Yaye who was chatting next to her and then followed suit.

"Yes, today when I came back from Columbia, I saw a giant locust tree about 30 meters tall, so I stopped the car to look at it for a while."

"No wonder the doctor has this smell too." Saria nodded and lowered her eyes slightly.

Shining looked at the silver-haired female colleague of similar height in front of him, knowing that Saria was the teacher he always mentioned, and a sense of satisfaction inexplicably emerged in his heart, and he said with a smile:

"He insisted on picking flowers for me. I couldn't persuade him, and the two of us both got a bit of the smell on us. Director Saria was really worried. I will make him stop doing those dangerous things in the future."

"It's just picking flowers, there's no danger at all." Saria said casually.

"How can it not be dangerous? Doesn't Director Saria know?" Shining said in surprise. He couldn't believe that this was what his teacher would say. Saria wished Su Qi would stay by her side every day, so how could she not worry about this danger.

"The flowers of the winged locust tree are all on the tree crown, and that locust tree is so tall. He dared to climb such a high tree only because of me and Kong Xian. If Director Saria was there, he would never dare to be so reckless."

Saria nodded, "I'll tell him," and left in a hurry.

Yaye looked at Director Saria's unsteady steps and asked in confusion, "Director Saria has been in a very good temper these days. Why does she look a little flustered today?"

Shining just stood there with his arms folded and smiled.

How can a teacher compare to my sister?

Feeling inexplicably irritated and wavering, Saria hurried her steps, wanting only to get back to the control center as soon as possible to ask him why he risked such a great risk of injury to pick locust flowers for them.

The control center was quiet. Su Qi didn't notice when Saria went out, but he saw it when Saria came back.

Putting down the phone in his hand, Su Qi asked in a relaxed tone: "When did the teacher go out?"

"I just went out." Saria replied sullenly, "Su Qi, let me ask you, did you climb any trees today?"

Su Qi was a little surprised. He didn't expect Saria to ask this. He nodded and said, "Well, I grew up in the county town, so I can climb trees."

"Do you know that climbing trees randomly is dangerous?"

"Um... Teacher, I don't think so..."

"What I mean is that a son of a rich family should not sit in a low position. You are worth more than just a rich family. Do you know that Syracuse has already put a bounty on your head? Any action you take could bring hidden dangers, don't you know?"

"teacher……"

"Since when did pleasing women become so important? Shining and Kong Xian just need a few flowers from you."

"Teacher...I..."

"Don't do this kind of people-pleasing behavior anymore. I don't want my students to develop a people-pleasing personality."

Su Qi swallowed and asked with some difficulty.

"But you said that you would only agree to my request when I solved the problem of the patients with Originium disease, and everything I am doing now is to achieve this goal. Am I trying to please you?"

Saria's heart skipped a beat. "When you can deal with the patients with Originium disease, I will marry you." This is what Saria said when she rejected his confession. She didn't expect that he really took it as a goal to complete. Saria felt inexplicably sweet in her heart, but she still said it.

"Yes, so I hope your goal is not to gain my approval, but to look at the long term. Dr. Su Qi, the world needs you, and I hope you can realize this."

His face suddenly turned ugly, but Saria didn't say anything, just watched him sit down, pick up the documents and continue working.

He still listened to her. Saria didn't look at him again, for fear that she would be soft-hearted and say something without thinking.

The control center fell silent again. After working for a while, Saria stood up and picked up a few reports for Su Qi to review. Just as she stood next to the man, Su Qi got up first and went to the bathroom.

Saria did not suspect anything, but noticed the mobile phone the man left on the table. The screen was on and there was a chat message on it.

Saria took a few glances and saw that it was Su Qi and Nian chatting.

11:49 AM

Su Qi: "It's raining really hard."

Su Qi: "I'm a little sleepy. I'm going to sleep first."

Year: “Is that it?”

Nian: "Don't you want to hug me?"

Nian: "Kiss me and smell the same shower gel I used on you after taking a shower."

Nian: "Eat the food I brought and the fruits I washed."

Nian: "Then I will accompany you to sleep well."

Nian: "Do you want to, do you want to? Idiot."

Nian: "If you want, just text me goodnight."

Su Qi: "Good night."

Year: 8″ Voice long press display → “Good night, Doctor. Call me when you wake up at night, don’t play with your phone by yourself.”

Saria had a blank expression on her face as she gently scrolled through the chat history, which showed the communication between the two of them from a few days ago.

48: AM

Year: Call duration 136:54

52: AM

Su Qi: Are you awake?

Nian: Yes, but I’m still very sleepy.
