The Fake Daughter Is Not Innocent Novel - Chapter 159
Chapter 159: Laboratory
“I’m Dr. Chen Shang.” He was dressed in a hip-hop outfit with a head of blue hair. Although the color was striking, he was handsome and looked pleasing to the eye.
“Dr. Mu Ze.” The person who spoke looked a little gloomy. His slightly long hair covered half of his eyes. Coupled with the fact that he had his head lowered, it was even more impossible to see his expression.
“My name is Tian Lan, and I’m a graduate student. I hope Academician Xiao Ying won’t mind.” As the only graduate student, she stuck her tongue out in embarrassment.
Xiao Ying nodded and said, “Of course not. I’m still a fourth-year student.”
Tian Lan quickly waved her hand and said, “I can’t be compared to you.”
Although she said that, Xiao Ying’s approachability made her sigh in relief. Thank goodness she wasn’t looked down upon.
Qiao Zihao also introduced himself solemnly, “I am Qiao Zihao, a primary school student. Please take care of me.”
His adult-like behavior made them laugh out loud.
Tian Lan was the most exaggerated. She pinched his cheek and said, “Why are you so cute?”
Qiao Zihao could not break free and could only purse his lips.
Yan Kun tugged at Tian Lan and said, “Alright, cut it out.”
Xiao Ying said, “It’s fine. You can go back now. The experiment will officially begin in two days. Is that okay?”
“No problem.”
The four of them replied in unison, their voices loud and filled with vitality.
After a few years, when they each stood at the peak, they would all be glad they made this decision now.
With that, the group left. After all, the research lab had not been fully prepared. Xiao Ying brought Qiao Zihao into the laboratory. The entire laboratory was not big, only about 50 square meters, but it was just enough for Xiao Ying.
Xiao Ying escorted Qiao Zihao back to the principal’s office and left.
As soon as she reached the school gate, she bumped into Qiao Na. Xiao Ying said, “I’ve already sent Zihao back to your office. I’ll come back the day after tomorrow.”
But Qiao Na’s eyes were on something behind her.
Feeling strange, Xiao Ying turned to look as well. Qiao Zihao, who had just been sent to the principal’s office, was currently following behind her.
Qiao Zihao walked out and said word by word, “Auntie Xiao, I want to live with you.”
Xiao Ying looked at Qiao Na with some hesitation.
This time, Qiao Na did not object. She agreed readily, but seemed to remember something, “Xiao Ying, will it be difficult for you?”
Xiao Ying shook her head and said, “I’ll be fine. Since you’ve agreed, Zihao will stay with me.”
Qiao Na smiled and said, “This child is very obedient. He won’t disturb you.”
She also understood her son’s nature, which was why she was not worried about him leaving with Xiao Ying.
Xiao Ying held Qiao Zihao’s hand and walked out of the school.
Qiao Na had already rented her a house near the school. It was close, just opposite the school.
Qiao Zihao was quiet the entire journey. When Xiao Ying passed by the supermarket, she paused and said, “Let’s go to the supermarket. Let’s buy some groceries, okay?”
She did not treat Qiao Zihao as a child. On the contrary, she respected his opinion.
Qiao Zihao nodded.
Xiao Ying pulled him into the supermarket and went to the fruit and vegetable section. She asked, “What do you like to eat?”
Qiao Zihao shook his head and said, “There’s nothing that I dislike.”
Xiao Ying paused. Did that mean there’s nothing that he liked either?
Although he said that, Xiao Ying would always ask for his opinion when buying another item.
After buying the groceries, they returned to their temporary home.
This was Xiao Ying’s first time here, so she told Qiao Zihao to take a break before she began tidying up the room. There were two bedrooms and a living room. The layout was neither too big nor too small, and the decor was warm-toned. This was Xiao Ying’s favorite style.
As Xiao Ying was cleaning the room, she turned around and saw that Qiao Zihao was also laboriously sweeping the floor with a broom taller than himself.
