#140 - Chapter 140: Hubby, can you handle it?

Lin Chen smiled and took a sip, saying, "Mengyao, this imported milk tea is indeed better."

Xu Mengyao asked suspiciously, "This is domestic, not imported."

"The straw is imported."

Lin Chen said.

Xu Mengyao: "..."

She said unhappily: "You are talking nonsense in a serious manner. I thought the milk tea was really imported."

"Here you are."

Lin Chen handed over the milk tea.

Xu Mengyao: "I've had enough, I don't want to drink it. Seeing you carrying other things, I'll reluctantly help you take it."

That's what she said, but a few minutes later, she still blushed and continued to drink the milk tea with the same straw.

Directly kissing him is still unacceptable to her, but using the same straw to drink milk tea is not a problem.

"Lin Chen, what are you looking at?"

Xu Mengyao blushed and said reproachfully.

Lin Chen happily looked at Xu Mengyao: "Wife, if I don't look at you, should I look at other beauties? You can't find anyone more beautiful than you on this street."

Some people around heard this and looked towards Lin Chen and the others.

Who is so oblivious to the truth to praise his wife?

They were stunned when they saw Xu Mengyao.

It turned out that it was not obliviousness to the truth but telling the truth. Xu Mengyao's appearance is very good-looking even when viewed nationwide.

"Let's go."

Xu Mengyao pulled Lin Chen away quickly.

Unknowingly, Lin Chen and the others had been shopping for two hours.

"Lin Chen, this is the road to Ziyuan Community."

Xu Mengyao said in the car.

Lin Chen nodded: "We are going to Ziyuan Community. You moved. It's so late, are we going to your parents' place? This is also much closer to Ziyuan Community."

Xu Mengyao looked at the time.

It's only after nine o'clock and it's not very far.

Her heart beat slightly faster.

When she was at Lin Chen's place before, Lin Xiaoxi was there. Tonight, there will only be the two of them in the house.

"You're not allowed to mess around."

Lin Chen turned to look at Xu Mengyao and said gently: "Wife, don't worry, I will quietly wait for you to recover, until the day you completely open your heart."

"Okay."

A warm current surged in Xu Mengyao's heart.

About half an hour later, Lin Chen and the others returned home.

"Husband, take a shower and watch TV with me."

Xu Mengyao said initiatively.

Lin Chen's eyes lit up: "Okay, you go to the master bedroom to wash, I'll take a shower in the public bathroom, it will be faster this way."

Ten minutes later, Lin Chen finished his shower. He turned on the TV. After a while, Xu Mengyao also came out.

The only flaw was that she was not wearing a silk pajamas.

"Mengyao, I picked a comedy movie. Are you watching this, or do you want to watch other programs?"

"This is fine."

Xu Mengyao blushed and went to Lin Chen's side.

"This pillow is the 38th parallel(三八线: military demarcation line), you are not allowed to cross the line."

Xu Mengyao said charmingly.

She put a sofa pillow between the two of them.

"Then give me your hand."

Lin Chen stretched out his hand.

Xu Mengyao obediently stretched out her hand. Lin Chen held her hand and the two watched the movie.

A trace of love grew between the two of them. This will not allow them to roll the bed sheets(滚床单: have sex) quickly, but the deeper the relationship, the faster Xu Mengyao's illness will recover.

An hour and a half later, the movie ended.

"Husband, good night."

"If you still want to read, don't read too late."

"I'm sleeping in the second bedroom."

Xu Mengyao got up and quickly went to the second bedroom.

A faint smile appeared on Lin Chen's face.

Shopping again, watching a movie together again, he could feel that his relationship with Xu Mengyao was gradually deepening.

"System, what is my physique now?"

Lin Chen asked in his mind.

He hadn't asked for some days.

System: "Host, your current physique is 256 points."

"Two hundred and fifty-six?"

"Less than I estimated."

System: "Host, you were not with Lin Xiaoqian when you went to the United States, your physique will not increase. Usually, sometimes the increase in physique is not even three points."

"Do I need to remind you every day?"

Lin Chen: "No, let it be."

Returning to the study, Lin Chen continued to read books about airplanes.

"Huh?"

Two hours later, Lin Chen discovered another error. But this time the book was not written by the original professor.

Finding the contact email, Lin Chen also sent an email.

Many graduate students and doctoral students also read the books he reads, and even some experts also study these books.

A research institution.

An old man was preparing to sleep.

He is the top expert in this research institution, responsible for new materials. He often works very late on scientific research.

Lying in bed, he opened his mobile phone mailbox.

This is his habit, to check for urgent emails before going to bed.

"Huh?"

The old man was stunned.

He sat up and turned on the light.

Disliking the small mobile phone screen, he simply got up and turned on the computer. Half an hour later, he slapped his thigh: "So that's how it is, no wonder the yield rate has not been improved."

The yield rate of something they manufactured was only thirty-odd percent, not even reaching forty percent.

They tried every possible way, but it was useless.

The low yield rate leads to high costs, which cannot compete with foreign products at all.

"It's my fault, alas!"

The old man was very self-reproachful.

Their research institute is owned by the state. Because of his mistakes, the state has wasted a lot of funds, and many of them have wasted a lot of time on it.

"Lin, you are correct."

"Thank you for pointing it out. May I ask your identity is—"

"I will inform the above of your contribution."

The old man sent an email to Lin Chen.

Lin Chen was still reading, and he heard a new email notification sound.

Lin Chen quickly read the email.

"Professor Lu, I am just an ordinary person. I don't want credit, and please don't look for me, thank you."

Professor Lu's eyes lit up.

He received Lin Chen's email so quickly.

"Lin, can we exchange some things? It's not confidential, purely academic exchanges."

"Okay, 88, going to bed."

Lin Chen shut down and went to sleep.

Professor Lu couldn't sleep at this time. He contacted the publisher overnight to inform them of the errors in his book, and he also explained this on Weibo.

"Lin, I have a few academic questions to ask—"

After finishing the above things, Professor Lu sent another email to Lin Chen.

The content of this email was much more.

He asked academic questions that had been bothering him. These academic questions are public and will not be confidential.

One night passed.

Lin Chen had already gotten up before Xu Mengyao got up.

He is full of energy and only needs to sleep for three hours a day.

"Husband, good morning."

Xu Mengyao said at the kitchen door.

"Wife, go brush your teeth and wash your face quickly, breakfast will be ready soon."

Lin Chen said with a smile.

Xu Mengyao said with some worry: "Husband, you stayed up quite late last night, right? Are you able to handle it physically getting up so early?"

Lin Chen raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Mengyao, you will know how great your husband is in the future."

"Your husband's body is absolutely great."

Xu Mengyao rolled her beautiful eyes at Lin Chen and said charmingly, "Naughty(不正经: not serious, indecent)."
