Madame is Pretending to be an Academic Slacker Again!

The man’s entire breathing was thrown into chaos.

This wasn’t a dream.

This was the living, breathing her, standing right in front of him.

She left, and now she’s back.

His Adam’s apple surged with an overwhelming bitterness, his eyes instantly filled to the point of pain, his brain couldn’t react; instinctively, he reached out his long arms and scooped the petite woman into his embrace, hugging her fiercely in his arms.

He couldn’t help but lower his head and lightly nuzzle her soft hair with his chin.

Long, black, fragrant, and dense soft hair like seaweed.

Now it was Qin Xin’s turn to be dumbfounded.

”Master, didn’t you say men and women should not touch and should never have contact with women? You...” She had guessed that her return would make her master quite happy, but she hadn’t expected her master to be this happy.

Could it be that her usually aloof master was actually clingy???

She really had no idea.

”Cough, cough, cough, Master you’re hugging me so tight I can’t breathe...”

To ease the sudden awkwardness from being hugged, she turned her face to lean against her master’s chest and kept talking:

”Master, are you training my lung capacity? Or is it some kind of grappling move?”

”Master, can we sit down and talk?”

”Master, you actually went outside and aren’t a homebody anymore?”

”Wow, Master, you’re so tall...”

He’s almost as tall as Mr. Nalan. When she danced with Mr. Nalan, his slightly bent chin also rested right on top of her head.

This thought flashed through Qin Xin’s mind, and she quickly shook her head.

What a ridiculous thought.

This is her master’s place, Mr. Nalan is away on business, it’s impossible for him to be in the countryside, and most importantly—her master has legs, cough.

The man’s arms slightly loosened when he heard Qin Xin compliment his height.

Realizing he had held her for too long and somewhat lost his composure, he reluctantly let go of her.

Then, he put on a stern face: ”Why did you come back?”

Qin Xin: ”I missed the train, didn’t I already say that?”

Man: ”Book a plane ticket immediately.”

After checking the time, he added: ”I’ll arrange a private jet for you.”

Qin Xin: ”Master, you’re too much, rushing to send me away like this?”

Man: ”Yes. You shouldn’t stay here.”

Qin Xin took a good look at the man, since he was wearing a soft bamboo mask, she couldn’t see his expression.

But his tone was really firm.

”Master, do you also know about Qingcheng planning to lock down? I didn’t expect you’re so well-informed, you know about the epidemic faster than I do?” Qin Xin looked at the man with new eyes.

Who would’ve thought.

The man was stunned: ”What epidemic? What lockdown?”

Qin Xin: ”...”

So her master hadn’t kept up with the news.

Wait, that’s not right, if her master didn’t know about the lockdown, why is he driving her away?

”Master, you don’t have some unspeakable secret you’re planning to indulge in once I’m gone, do you?”

With a mischievous smile, Qin Xin squinted her eyes as she scrutinized the man.

The man’s Adam’s apple bobbed: ”...”

Dragging her luggage to the side wing room, Qin Xin said: ”Master, no matter what, I’m sleeping here tonight, not going anywhere. Besides, I couldn’t leave even if I wanted to, even if you helped me arrange a private jet, I couldn’t fly out; air travel is also restricted. Master, why don’t we think about what to cook tomorrow morning? Hey... you haven’t eaten the porridge I cooked for you before I left? I especially asked the rice-seller auntie, she said once the water covers the second joint on your finger, you can make thick porridge...”

However, lifting the lid, what she saw was half-cooked rice.
