I'm reborn and I'm an international student again?

Chapter 192: Sterilization
“I’m such a great essay writer!”

I kept writing until after five o'clock and finished the paper of several thousand words.

Chen Xi looked at the computer screen and stretched happily.

"Xiao Lian, are you feeling better?" He touched Xia Lian's forehead and it didn't feel as hot anymore.

"Well, I was sweating. Sorry, I made your sheets dirty." Xia Lian's cheeks flushed slightly.

She felt a little embarrassed when she thought about the fact that she was not wearing anything under the quilt.

Although he had had sex with Chen Xi and they had been honest with each other, it was just an accident.

Now that I've come to my senses, I naturally feel that something is wrong.

"It's okay, come and drink some water." Chen Xi picked up the cup and fed her a sip.

"Thank you! Apart from my father, you are the first man who treats me so well." Xia Lian said with her head down.

"Uh..." Chen Xi scratched his head. When he mentioned his father, he thought of Chen Xu and Cherry. He didn't have that kind of hobby.

"Actually, you don't have to be so nice to me. I did it voluntarily last time. You don't have to think too much about it." Xia Lian looked at Chen Xi and said softly.

"Besides, you have a girlfriend, so this isn't a good idea. I thought about it and decided to find another job. You're like this, and I feel like I'm..." Having said that, Xia Lian didn't have the face to continue.

She has always been very concerned about this matter, but her strong self-esteem prevents her from accepting it.

"Don't think too much. You just need to perform well in the company. The salary I offer is reasonable. The place where you worked before saw that you had no identity, so they naturally gave you a very low salary, and it was already lower than the minimum wage, which is illegal." Chen Xi said with a serious expression, but in his heart he was trying to find a way to get Xia Lian to stay.

"Okay, that's it. Don't have any other ideas."

"I……"

Xia Lian hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded.

Chen Xi has now figured out how to get along with this girl. As long as he acts a little more assertive, Xia Lian will become very submissive and completely follow his arrangements.

"Well, I want to take a shower. I've sweated a lot." Xia Lian just felt sticky.

"I'll go fill the bathtub."

"No, that's a waste of water. I'll just use the rain."

"obedient."

Chen Xi left a word and walked into the bathroom.

Xia Lian lay on the bed, covering her chest tightly with the quilt. Although she still felt dizzy, she was much better than before. It seemed that the medicine she had taken before was starting to work.

"You wash first, I'll come back later." After waiting for a while, he helped Xia Lian, who was wrapped in a bath towel, into the bathroom, then closed the door and left the bedroom. He picked up the phone and called Saori.

"Hey, baby, what are you doing?"

"I'm thinking about you!"

"Where did you learn that? Um... I have something to say."

"Hehe, what are you doing? I'm playing with the cat at Nana's house. She bought a cat."

On the other end of the phone, Saori was playing with a kitten with a cat toy.

"Um... Is it a male or female cat? This cat is very loud when it's in heat, and it likes to go out and look for other cats!"

"Hehe, it's a male cat. Nana said she would take it to be sterilized when the time comes. Otherwise, it would be bad if it flirts with other girls."

"good idea."

"By the way, didn't you just say you had something to do?"

"It's okay... I suddenly remembered that I have something else to do at the company, that's all."

Chen Xi quickly hung up the phone.

When he thought of what Saori had just said, he felt something tighten somewhere. Little Chen Xi must not be hurt.

Saori must not know about this!
Holding a cigarette in his mouth, Chen Xi felt itchy when he thought of the scene of Xia Lian in the bathroom.

I have to say that the experience in the hotel that day was quite good. Chen Xi was full of aftertaste when he thought about it.

If that kind of thing had happened with other women, he would probably not care much about it, but Xia Lian looked very much like his first love, which made him want to fulfill his unfinished dream.

Let's leave it at that for now! We'll take it one step at a time.

"Hello, have you asked anyone about the website I asked you to build last time?" He called Yuan Shuai again.

"I asked, it's not difficult to build a website, you just have to make it look good and hire someone to do it. And maintenance is not a big problem, the problem is that you don't have the money!"

"Oh, there's nothing wrong with the banknotes, haha."

"You have nothing now, so what are you going to build a website for? What are you going to put on it?"

"You should register a domain name first. Others have carsales and realestate. Think about what name you can come up with that's easy to remember. If you don't register now, someone else will grab the good name later."

"Then I'll write it myself, haha. By the way, I've written some of the novels you mentioned last time, but they require paper contracts. Can you help me deal with it when you return to China? I won't be going back this year."

"No problem, what did you write?"

"Douluo Cangqiong."

"That's fun! I can already imagine what you'll name my website."

After chatting for a while, Chen Xi silently hung up the phone and turned to look at the bedroom. Xia Lian should have finished washing.

He knocked on the door and walked in, and saw Xia Lian lying in the bathtub and sleeping again. Her delicate body was looming in the water, and he felt dry in his mouth.

"Xiao Lian, wake up." Chen Xi patted her cheek.

"I'm sorry, I fell asleep again. It was so comfortable. Ah~ don't look at me." Xia Lian covered her body and squatted in the bathtub.

"Wipe it off and come out for dinner."

"Ok."

Chen Xi went out and put the lamb skewers in the oven to heat them up. Not long after, Xia Lian came out shyly wearing the pajamas that Chen Xi had given her.

The large pajamas seemed a little loose on her petite body. She stood there with her hands clenched, a little embarrassed, like a little girl who needed care.

"Si Hai will have a lot of orders in the future, so you may have to work hard."

"It's okay. You pay me a very high salary. I'm not afraid of hard work."

The two of them chatted while eating.

"What does your family do? Didn't they send you living expenses?"

"My parents are ordinary office workers. The money for going abroad was saved through hard work, and part of it was the money left by my grandmother when she passed away."

"You are so beautiful, why don't you find a boyfriend? It shouldn't be too hard, after all, the conditions of international students are generally better."

"I...you..." Xia Lian frowned after hearing this and looked at Chen Xi, not knowing what to say. She felt that the other party was trying to test his protection of her.

"Don't get me wrong, I'm just curious."

"I'm sorry, I'm too sensitive. I want to live by my own hands."

"You are different from other girls. Many girls just say this, but you really do it."

"It's nothing. Everyone has their own choices. Do you think I'm stupid for not taking the shortcut and choosing this method?"

"No, to be honest, you showed me a strength and independence that other girls don't have. I admire you for that."

"Thank you. Others thought I was poor and stupid. After getting to know me for a while, they discovered that I had no money and thought they couldn't have fun with me, so they left. Really, thank you, Chen Xi, for not looking down on me." Xia Lian lowered her head as she spoke. Her voice choked with sobs and tears sparkled in her eyes.

"Okay, let's eat. Although I have a girlfriend and it's impossible for us to be together, we can still be good friends." Chen Xi touched her head and comforted her.

"Are you giving me the nice guy card?" Xia Lian looked up and smiled.

"Nothing." Chen Xi lowered his head and ate awkwardly.

"Hehe, I was just kidding you."

Chatting with Chen Xi seemed to make Xia Lian feel more cheerful. She rarely chatted with boys before, and even when she met other boys, she would deliberately keep a certain distance.

She can sense other people's attitudes and intentions towards her, which makes her feel somewhat inferior and uneasy when interacting with the opposite sex.

Therefore, there are no friends of the opposite sex around me, only Chen Xi.

"You sleep on the bed tonight, and I'll sleep in the living room." Xia Lian glanced at the air mattress in the living room and felt a little embarrassed.

"No, you're a patient now, and I like sleeping on an air mattress."

Xia Lian didn't say anything and lowered her head. She didn't know why the boy in front of her was so nice to her. Could it be... Thinking about it, she shook her head again, feeling that the other person was not that kind of person.

"Young people nowadays become arrogant when they are praised."

"Maybe he's just in a bad mood lately. Xiaotian usually works very hard."

At this time, the door was opened, and the voices of Dongdong and Xiaoming came in.

The two of them kept talking about Tian Gou.

These two days, Tian Gou seemed a little absent-minded and made frequent mistakes at work.

Xiao Ming specially sought him out for a conversation today. When asked, Tian Gou vaguely said that he was sick, but this reason was obviously untenable and more like an excuse.

Since Tian Gou was unwilling to talk more, Xiao Ming and Dong Dong did not ask any further questions.

"you……"

"hehe."

As soon as they walked into the living room, they saw Xia Lian wearing the ill-fitting pajamas that were loosely put on her body. Dong Dong and Xiao Ming immediately thought of some bad images, which made Xia Lian's cheeks red.

"I'm sorry to bother you. Let's go back to the room." Dongdong looked at the two of them with a smile.

"How is the company?"

"It's not a big problem. It's just that one of our employees hasn't been performing well recently. It might be because of too much pressure from studying. He's also from Didi University."

"I gave him a bonus last time!"

"Oh, then you guys handle it. It's a good opportunity for you to exercise yourself. Your employees are lazy and slack, so as a boss you need to do some ideological work."

"I know, I know. Just go ahead and do your thing."

Xiao Ming and Dong Dong responded with a smile, occasionally looking at Xia Lian who was eating.

"That's just how they are. Don't mind it." Chen Xi explained to Xia Lian.

"It's okay, they are the bosses."

"Don't treat them as your boss when you're not in the company. This is Australia, not China. There is no employment relationship after work. You can say whatever you want." Chen Xi served Xia Lian another bowl of porridge.
