Don't blame me for taking advantage of it

"you?"

Fu Ran was stunned for a while, and raised his hand to grab the registration form, "Why do you participate? You are not a student."

"Of course he is."

An Ting poked out from behind Qin Chengyan and took back the list, "The senior is going to study in Australia as a graduate student of University A for three years, and there is still half a year left, why can't you participate?"

Fu Ran choked for a moment, unable to refute.

Qin Chengyan, as long as he doesn't sign a job for a day, he is eligible for the competition for one day, this is iGEM's rule.

An Ting put the registration form on the table, there are two in total.In order to prevent it from being blown away by the wind, he stacked the two sheets and pressed them tightly together.Then I picked up the black carbon pen and prepared to fill in my own one.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he put his hand on it, another person took it away.

"I'll do it myself bro."

The registration form involved a lot of personal information, such as date of birth, student ID number, etc. An Ting thought it would be more convenient for him to write.

Qin Chengyan lowered his eyes, and his long eyelashes cast a shadow on his face.

"You're not healed yet."

He held the pen and filled out An Ting's sheet first.

An Ting has been watching from the side, planning to tell him when the senior asks.

But as Qin Chengyan wrote, An Ting's eyes widened——

Except for the ID number, the senior actually knew everything.

"Brother," An Ting finally couldn't help asking, "How do you know the average score of my professional courses in college?"

Qin Chengyan paused his pen tip, and said in a calm tone, "I am Professor Ni's assistant."

In graduate school, it's normal for a professor to want to check a student's college grades.

"Then... the titles of my several SCI papers..."

There are three articles in total, and each article has a title of more than ten or twenty characters. Qin Chengyan never misses a word, and even knows the date of publication.

"The teacher said."

Qin Chengyan didn't hesitate, his face was calm, and An Ting was in a daze, forgetting whether he told his father these things.

Qin Chengyan quickly filled out the registration form, picked up the stapler prepared by the side, and carefully stapled the two people's names together.

Fu Ran looked at the two of them shoulder to shoulder, their shadows blending together, for some reason, suddenly felt sour, and said sarcastically, "I said Senior Qin, have you asked your other team members to see what they think?" Don't want him to be such a burden?"

Qin Chengyan pressed the registration form in front of his eyes, gave him a cold look, didn't say anything, and left the team with An Ting.

Fu Ran gritted his teeth and lowered his head angrily, wanting to see who was being taken advantage of.His eyes fell on the registration form, his expression changed, and he saw that it said——

Number of team members: 2

Team member names: Qin Chengyan, An Ting

Just two people?

You must know that iGEM covers a wide range, and each team basically has more than five people, so as to ensure that it does not fail in the professional field that needs to be used.

Just two people, what can we do?Do you play house?

Just as Fu Ran was about to catch up, he was patted on the shoulder.Looking back, it was a senior from the same teacher.

The senior sister handed him a date worksheet, titled [August-September Library Work Punch Sheet].

"What is this?" Fu Ran stopped and asked.

"Teacher Ni asked you to go to the library to report tomorrow. He found you smoking in the laboratory. This is a punishment. It lasts for one month, and you have to ask the administrator to stamp it at the end of each day. If you are absent, you can do it yourself at the end of the semester."

The work in the library is tiring and dirty. Not only do you have to move a lot of books every day, you also have to organize the old book warehouse, and you have to go upstairs and downstairs to clean it.

Fu Ran was stunned for a moment, "How does he know that I smoke?!"

He was very careful every time, opening the windows to ventilate, sweeping away the soot, how did Ni Xingbang know?

The senior sister threw down the sentence "Old Ni checked the surveillance" and left. Fu Ran stood there holding the worksheet for a long time before suddenly reacting and looking in the direction where the two left——

No, it's Qin Chengyan!

Leaving the playground, there were a lot fewer people around, and the feeling of stuffiness dropped sharply. An Ting felt that the air was cleaner.

Passing by the supermarket on the first floor of the cafeteria, he turned in and bought two mung bean-flavored ice creams, and handed one of them to Qin Chengyan.

An Ting remembered that in his third year of high school, every time his seniors came to the house, they only ate mung bean ice cream.Later, for this, Dad would always buy a few when purchasing.

There is still air-conditioning on the ice cream bag, and the dark green color looks relaxing.

Qin Chengyan didn't expect that An Ting would remember his preferences, and when he lowered his head to tear open the package, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but twitch.Then he naturally took An Ting's packing bag and threw it into the roadside trash can along with his own.

Looking at his empty palm, An Ting subconsciously blurted out, "Brother, actually you don't have to help me like this."

"Ok?"

Qin Chengyan squinted his eyes and took a bite of the ice cream. When he swallowed it, his Adam's apple rolled in the sun, and the lines looked very sexy.

An Ting glanced twice, then retracted his gaze, feeling that the air was a little hot.

So he also took a bite, and said in a low voice, "Actually, I can participate in that competition by myself."

When he was in college, An Ting had studied iGEM with his father many times, and he knew everything to prepare.

He even has a very clear plan for the subject direction and operating procedures to be selected.

While a hand injury can make this difficult, it also becomes a plus when the professors evaluate it at the end.So An Ting felt that even if he was himself, there was a high probability that he would not lose.I didn't plan to participate before, just to...

"You don't want it anymore?"

Qin Chengyan stopped at some point and stood under the shade of a tree to watch him.

"..."

An Ting was stunned for a moment, pursed his lips and said nothing, and there was a little grievance in his lowered eyebrows and eyes.

Yes, if it wasn't for the car accident that injured his hand accidentally, An Ting is confident that he can stand on the campus of MIT and win the iGEM gold medal for the country.

He rarely had such an expression, Qin Chengyan looked at it for a few seconds before looking away and said, "There is no class this afternoon, come with me."

"where to?"

Qin Chengyan didn't answer, turned around and threw away the ice cream sticks that the two of them had finished eating, and led them towards the school gate.There was a brand new black Audi A8 parked in the parking space, which was different from the one that went to the hospital last time.

An Ting sat in the co-pilot, fastened his seat belt, and put his hands on his knees, looking very obedient.

The car started, and the aqua blue ambient light shone, turning the child's outline into the color of the ocean.

Qin Chengyan looked straight ahead, and when he was about to come back, he modified the car and changed the eight-color ambient light to 24 colors.Oh no, it's still 64 colors.

He wanted to see Anting in every color.

The car drove smoothly on the street, passed through the lively urban area, and finally stopped outside an old city in the north.

"The car in front can't get in."

The two got out of the car and walked along a somewhat narrow alley.Most of the surroundings are tube buildings, occasionally some low self-built houses are interspersed.

On the side of the road, there are old people sitting on a pony pony to bask in the sun, and there are almost long flower pots at the door of every house, where green onions or leeks are planted.

It was rare for them to see a man with such a distinctive look. When the two passed by, they all stared closely.

Although there was no malice in his eyes, An Ting was still not used to it.

He resisted asking, and quietly followed behind Qin Chengyan.

The wires protruding from the tube building cut the sky into several pieces, and the sun shone irregularly.There was nothing to look around, An Ting could only focus on the man in front of him.

Only then did he suddenly realize that Qin Chengyan's shoulders were very broad, his lines were neat and straight, and his back was very straight when he walked.Behind the senior, there is an inexplicably reassuring feeling, like a protected cub.

An Ting unconsciously stared in rapt attention, not paying attention to his feet.An empty wine bottle rolled out out of nowhere, he accidentally stepped on it, shouted "ah", and fell forward uncontrollably.

But before he had time to feel the weightlessness, his body was firmly supported by someone.

Qin Chengyan grasped his forearm with one hand, and subconsciously grasped his waist with the other hand.

....... Very thin, the meat is very soft.

Qin Chengyan was stunned for a rare moment, and let go of the hand on his waist as if electrocuted, and asked after two seconds of silence, "Are you okay?"

"......Um."

An Ting felt ashamed, how old he was and still tripped while walking.He lowered his head, his ears were blushing, and he didn't dare to look up.

The two of them took two steps back together strangely, Qin Chengyan clenched his fists in vain, and the temperature there was slowly dissipating.

He looked down at the top of An Ting's furry head, and whispered, "A little further ahead, we'll be there."

"it is good."

In the end, the two stopped in front of a small private courtyard.

The small courtyard is not big, and the red paint on the two iron gates has peeled off, which looks old.Creepers cover the entire wall, and morning glory hides in the sea of ​​green, poking its head out occasionally.

Qin Chengyan pushed open the door and walked in with ease, stepping on the bluestone slab.

"Come in." He told An Ting.

The courtyard is more prosperous than the outside. The square courtyard is divided into two halves by a bluestone road, but they are all full of bright red roses.

It is August, and the flowering period is coming to an end.But the remaining red is still eye-catching, and An Ting couldn't move his eyes away.

"Who am I? How did you come back?"

A voice came from the main room, An Ting raised his eyes and saw a very young man leaning against the door to greet his senior.

The man was dressed in punk style, studded shoes, black short sleeves with a blood claw pattern, silver earrings, and a short braid stuck up behind his head.

"Ouch!" The man looked at An Ting, and said without hesitation, "I brought someone here today, who is it? Xiaoqinger?"

An Ting: "No, I am him..."

An Ting struggled with "friend" and "student" for a while, and Qin Chengyan decided on the sound.

"It's my brother," Qin Cheng said to the punk boy, but looked at An Ting.

"Advanced room."

It can be seen that Qin Chengyan is very familiar with this place.He didn't need to be greeted by the punk man, he took An Ting and sat down, then poured two cups of hot tea.

An Ting took the tea ceremony and thanked him, only to realize that he seems to be always saying thank you to his seniors recently.

The heat was lingering, An Ting took a look at the house, and found that every part has a sense of age, and the decoration is very orthodox Chinese style.Although unassuming, all the furniture is real mahogany, which is worth a lot.

After watching An Ting drink the tea and his dry lips became moist again, Qin Chengyan began to introduce.

"This is Jiang Bo," he said, pointing at the punk boy, "he's a Chinese medicine doctor."

An Ting was stunned, Chinese medicine?

"Your hand injury is very serious." Qin Chengyan stood in front of him, looked at those hands with narrowed eyes, his brows furrowed slightly, "Jiang Bo can be cured."

Jiang Bo looked at the side with his arms folded for a while, then he sat casually on one side, crossed his legs and said, "You are very kind to your brother, taking care of him as if you were taking care of your wife!"

Hearing the word "your brother", Qin Chengyan's brows furrowed even more, curled up his hands hanging by his legs, and gave Jiang Bo a cool look.

Just as Jiang Bo grinned, he saw that fair-looking kid put down his teacup, lightly tugged at Qin Chengyan's sleeve, and called out "Brother" in a low voice.

The voice is soft and nice.

Qin Chengyan tilted his head "sigh" and met An Ting's eyes.

An Ting was a little embarrassed, even she didn't feel a little shy when she spoke.He paused for two seconds before asking, "... May I borrow the bathroom?"

Jiang Bo took him there, and when he returned to the living room, he saw his friend touching his ear alone.

"What are you doing?" Jiang Bo walked over and glanced curiously, "Have you got otitis media? Shall I give you two needles?"

Qin Chengyan: "..."

He just suddenly felt that the "brother" that An Ting called just now seemed to sound good.
