Chapter 448 - 180: Tussle in the Office, Qi Siyu’s Bootlicker_5
"Director Peng, this is my student. Did you need something?"
Peng Cheng stared intently at Li Yuan, his expression puzzled as he asked, "Siyu, this is your student?"
"Yes," Qi Siyu answered, a hint of shyness on her face. This freshman had just taught her a perfect lesson.
Upon hearing this, Peng Cheng scrutinized Li Yuan, feeling a sense of familiarity but unable to place him. As the youngest associate professor in the Physics Department of Daxia University, he rarely browsed internet forums, followed celebrities, or read gossip news.
After hearing that Li Yuan was just a student, Peng Cheng dismissed him from his mind. He turned to Qi Siyu with a flattering smile, and noticing her blushing cheeks, he quickly asked with concern, "Siyu, why are your cheeks so red? Are you feeling unwell?"
At his words, Qi Siyu’s face turned even redder, and she inadvertently shot Li Yuan a reproachful glance. Li Yuan, for his part, was deliberately crossing his legs to disguise the still-imposing presence of the Great Sage Equalling Heaven.
Peng Cheng’s gaze remained fixed on Qi Siyu. When he saw the affectionate way she smiled at Li Yuan, he suddenly felt a surge of repulsion and hostility toward the student.
Qi Siyu glanced at Peng Cheng and spoke indifferently, "Director Peng, I’m fine. Did you need something from me?"
Peng Cheng glared at Li Yuan, finding him a complete eyesore. Doesn’t he have the sense to excuse himself and leave by now? He gestured repeatedly for Li Yuan to leave, but Li Yuan acted as if he didn’t understand, simply smiling without moving an inch from his seat.
What a clueless, slick-haired pretty boy, Peng Cheng inwardly cursed.
Where did this bastard come from, ruining my fun? And he wants *me* to leave? How the hell can I leave in this condition? My Great Sage Equalling Heaven, fully equipped with its Six God Armament, has to be reined in before it can even show its divine prowess. This is so damn frustrating! Li Yuan fumed internally.
Peng Cheng, naturally unaware of Li Yuan’s thoughts, turned to him with an arrogant smile. "Heh, young man, Mrs. Qi and I have something to discuss. Could you step out for a moment?"
Qi Siyu secretly glanced at Li Yuan’s crossed legs. Seemingly remembering something, her cheeks flushed a rosy hue. She turned to Peng Cheng and explained, "Director Peng, I still have some matters to discuss with him. If you have something to say, please say it directly."
Hearing Qi Siyu defend Li Yuan, Peng Cheng grew even more irritated with the impolite student. But with his crush present, he couldn’t lose his composure and maintained his suave demeanor.
"It’s nothing, Siyu. There’s a new Japanese restaurant in Modu, and I’d like to treat you to dinner. Are you free tonight?"
Qi Siyu declined without hesitation. She felt utterly indifferent toward this youngest associate professor of Daxia University. This professor, leveraging his modest scholarship and promising career, had recently been trying all sorts of ways to pursue her—sending flowers, inviting her to fancy dinners, or giving her small gifts. She had even secretly told her colleagues that she was a sucker for looks and preferred tall men, hoping Peng Cheng would get the hint and back off.
But Peng Cheng continued his routine, unshakably self-assured, showering her with daily greetings and concern. He even presumed to call himself her "boyfriend," which left her completely speechless.
Though annoyed, Qi Siyu still responded politely, "Director Peng, I already have plans tonight. Maybe another time!"
