Chapter 1554: You Are My Little Love Song (121)
In the morning, s.h.i.+ Niange first went to Qin Siting’s house across the street to have breakfast. Of course, the breakfast was made by Qin Siting. She felt that the simple toast and jam milk were delicious. After all, the jam on the bread was personally smeared by Almighty Qin.
After the meal, the two took a taxi to the laboratory. As the resort hotel was quite far from here and there were many people in the studio, in the beginning, they planned to split up and gather at the same time. However, later on, there seemed to be a staff member whose family was involved in a tourism business. The family could provide a bus for everyone to go over, so in the end, it was changed to gather here for everyone to take the bus.
Grandfather had also arrived very early. Professor Yang, who was usually stern in the laboratory, was unexpectedly not as serious as he usually was when he was working. Instead, he was very amiable and kept chatting with everyone.
s.h.i.+ Niange could not appear too intimate with Qin Siting in front of her grandfather. Furthermore, her grandfather had asked her to sit with him. It happened that he wanted to test the things she had studied this semester. s.h.i.+ Niange could only sit by her grandfather’s side.
The journey from the entrance of the laboratory to the hot spring club took almost two hours.
For the first hour, she had been chatting with her grandfather. Afterward, her grandfather was a little tired from the car ride. He closed his eyes for a while before s.h.i.+ Niange took the opportunity to secretly look back.
Qin Siting sat four or five rows behind her. She didn’t know if it was a coincidence, but it was actually a spot she could see immediately when she turned her head.
The moment she turned back, Qin Siting, who was sitting there, seemed to have telepathy as he raised his eyes to look at her. Their eyes met. s.h.i.+ Niange quickly smiled at him, and Qin Siting also curved his lips lightly at her. Then, he opened his mouth to say something softly. She could tell from the shape of his lips that he wanted her to close her eyes and rest for a while.
She really wanted to sit with Qin Siting, but with Grandfather by her side, she didn’t dare to move. She could only turn back to look at him from time to time. Every time she turned back, Qin Siting seemed to feel it. Even if he was originally closing his eyes to rest, the moment she turned back, he would open his eyes to look back at her.
For the past two years, she had always been single-minded. Now, as long as she expressed something, he would immediately respond. The feeling that warmed the bottom of her heart was unfamiliar and satisfying to s.h.i.+ Niange. Was it the same for other people when they first fell in love? She wished she could be by his side for twenty-four hours and every minute and second of the day. It was difficult to be half a meter away, let alone several rows away.
Finally, she got out of the car. s.h.i.+ Niange originally wanted to walk behind with Qin Siting, but after getting out of the car, an elder sister from the laboratory pulled her especially warmly. “Nian Nian, let’s go. Let’s go to the female guests. We won’t be hanging out with these men. Quick, let’s go. It seems like this place has been booked by Professor Yang today. Let’s go change our clothes first and s.n.a.t.c.h a better hot spring pool early to prevent them from taking it away.”
Then, before s.h.i.+ Niange could say a word to Qin Siting, she was dragged into the female guest changing room by several enthusiastic sisters.
The cell phone signal here was not good. She could not send Qin Siting a message even if she wanted to. s.h.i.+ Niange quickly went in to change her clothes. Then, she sat in the changing room and waited for the others to change. She sat there and looked at the cell phone without a single signal and fell into a melancholic mood.
What to do.
Was she going to brush past Qin Siting like two strangers under the gaze of all the staff members’ brothers, sisters, and grandfather? She was so excited last night that she didn’t sleep well. In the end, she ended up like this today?
She couldn’t accept it.
She still wanted to go to the hot spring with Qin Siting.
“Nian Nian, we’re done changing. What are you waiting for? Let’s go in.”
“Okay.” s.h.i.+ Niange quickly changed into the slippers and walked in with them.
The girls chatted and laughed as they walked in. Usually, everyone wore their white coats in the studio. Everyone was tightly covered, but today, all of them were wearing swimsuits. Some of the more conservative sisters wrapped a towel around their swimsuits. However, it was rare that everyone suddenly wore so little. Those male staff members were all whistling and hooting from afar, causing everyone to run to the edge of the pool to fetch water. The moment they entered, they began splas.h.i.+ng water on each other. Their laughter and screams resounded everywhere.
s.h.i.+ Niange was also having fun with everyone. Then, she was accidentally pushed into the pool. Thankfully, she knew how to swim. As soon as she fell, the people around her screamed and wanted to go down to save her. She came out of the water first and wiped the water off her face. She smiled brightly and waved at everyone by the pool. “It’s fine, it’s fine. The water isn’t cold. Come down!”
As she spoke, from the corner of her eye, she suddenly saw a figure walking out of the male guest changing room. She immediately turned her head over. She was still soaking in the pool when she saw Qin Siting walk out. Furthermore, because he saw her leisurely swimming in the water, he raised his brows.
“Almighty Qin!” s.h.i.+ Niange quickly raised her hand to greet him when her grandfather wasn’t nearby.
Qin Siting walked over from the crowd and was looking in her direction. The moment her voice rang, the colleagues in the laboratory who had long seen the situation between them all began to grin. It was as though they were jealous, and then the noise began again.
In the water, s.h.i.+ Niange waved her hand at him as though she did not care about anyone’s gaze. “Almighty Qin!”
Qin Siting looked at the bright and lively girl in the blue pool water and chuckled. He walked to the sh.o.r.e and bent down. s.h.i.+ Niange happened to swim over. He raised the water with his hand and looked at s.h.i.+ Niange who swam over like a little mermaid. His gaze landed on her wet hair and her face full of water droplets. “Aren’t you going to soak in the hot spring? Why did you swim here first?”
“I accidentally fell down just now.” s.h.i.+ Niange smiled at him. “Are you coming down?”
The staff members at the side had already been frightened away by the public display of affection. There were also a few sisters who were covering their hearts and saying how good it was to be young. There were also people who were secretly discussing if Professor Yang knows about Nian Nian and Qin Siting’s matter. They didn’t know if he would be angered to the point of fuming.
Speaking of the devil, Professor Yang arrived.
The moment he came out, he saw Qin Siting by the pool. s.h.i.+ Niange was in the water, one on top and one on bottom. At the crucial moment, s.h.i.+ Niange was still holding Qin Siting’s hand.
Grandfather walked over. “What are the two of you doing?”
Qin Siting calmly raised his brows and turned to look at her grandfather. Just as he was about to speak, s.h.i.+ Niange suddenly splashed in the water. “Ah, Grandfather, I just fell down. Qin Siting is helping me get ou!”
Professor Yang’s brows twitched. “Didn’t you learn to swim very early?”
“Uh… the weather outside is a little cold. The water temperature here is low. My legs were cramping earlier, so I struggled in the water.” s.h.i.+ Niange chuckled.
“Professor Yang, come. There’s a Chinese medicine pool here. It’s good for your health. It suits you very well!” a staff member shouted from the front.
Professor Yang raised his head to look over. When he retracted his gaze, he saw that s.h.i.+ Niange had already been pulled out of the water by Qin Siting. He thought that since these two children were usually in the Medical University, it was normal for them to be close and familiar with each other. He did not think too much about it. Anyway, it was impossible for him to imagine that the brat he had watched grow up could have any emotional conflict with a child like Qin Siting who was too calm. He did not ask further and left.
Seeing that her grandfather had left, s.h.i.+ Niange carefully glanced in his direction again. Then, she took the towel Qin Siting handed her. As she wrapped it around herself, she looked up at him. “My phone didn’t have a signal earlier.”
“En, it’s all the same.” Qin Siting wiped her hair. “You can’t enter the pool without a swimming cap. Go wipe it and soak in the hot spring first.”
“Okay, shall we soak together?”
Seeing that her eyes were filled with the desire to soak in the hot spring with him, Qin Siting chuckled and acknowledged.
With that, s.h.i.+ Niange happily stuck her head out to look around. When she saw that there was no one in the lavender pool behind the two tall green trees, she quickly walked over.
s.h.i.+ Niange’s happiness was too simple. In this especially large hot spring clubhouse, there were actually many pools without people. After all, they had already been booked. However, sitting here with Qin Siting, she was happy that she could occupy an entire small pool.
She was also not obedient in the water. From time to time, she would rub her feet against him. In the end, she just sat by his side. There were still some small springs in the water that could be ma.s.saged. She did not like to come out when she sat in it. Qin Siting told her to be more obedient, but she still liked to rub her feet against his.
After soaking in the water for more than twenty minutes, she finally could not take the heat anymore. Her head was slightly dizzy. She quickly came out of the pool and said that she wanted to buy a bottle of fruit juice.
Qin Siting then came over and saw s.h.i.+ Niange drinking orange juice by the water dispenser. She drank it contentedly while narrowing her eyes.
He curled his lips and walked over to take a bottle. s.h.i.+ Niange sensed that he was about to take a bottle of water and instinctively leaned to the side to make s.p.a.ce for him.
Qin Siting lowered his eyes and saw that the corner of her lips was still stained with orange juice. As he suddenly looked over, she subconsciously licked her lips.
“There’s only one bottle of orange juice left. Do you want some grape juice?” She turned back to look inside, then turned back to meet his dark eyes.
Before she could ask if he wanted mineral water or juice, Qin Siting suddenly lowered his head. Her lips were suddenly covered by his warm breath.
The sunlight from the transparent gla.s.s above the hot spring clubhouse was somewhat dazzling. s.h.i.+ Niange could only feel the light flas.h.i.+ng in front of her eyes. She narrowed her eyes and the remaining sweetness on her lips was swept away by the other party.
Her consciousness was also dazed for a moment. She almost lost her balance. Qin Siting’s arm suddenly wrapped around her waist and brought her into his embrace. The warmth on her lips gradually deepened.
