After ONS: Trapped by the Cunning Professor-Chapter 273 - 274: Violating Rules (7)

An unnamed island, when Qin Mobai docked the boat at the shoal, Lou Xi was completely captivated by the natural beauty of the island.

The island isn’t large, probably about the size of two football fields.

However, a wooden villa was built on the island, surrounded by trees, making the island appear particularly secluded in the azure sea.

"Young Master Qin, this place is so beautiful!" Lou Xi exclaimed after disembarking, standing on the golden sands and gazing at the dreamlike scene.

"This island was purchased by my mother long ago, intending to spend her later years here." But unexpectedly, she passed away at her most beautiful age, leaving the island vacant.

It seems that Qin Mobai’s mood is never quite good whenever he speaks of his mother.

Lou Xi approached him, holding his hand, silently offering him strength.

"This island doesn’t have a name yet." Qin Mobai quickly changed his mood, not wanting those memories to spoil the good mood of their vacation, "Why don’t you give it a name."

Lou Xi, not being a student of the Chinese department, found it truly challenging to come up with a name for an island on the spur of the moment.

Can we skip this topic?

Seeing Lou Xi’s troubled expression, Qin Mobai chuckled softly and led her towards the villa.

The villa was equipped with everything, and Lou Xi was captivated by the view.

Seeing her happiness was enough.

Suddenly, the phone in Qin Mobai’s pocket rang.

He took it out to see an unfamiliar number.

"Come here." Qin Mobai waved to Lou Xi.

So Lou Xi trotted over.

"Answer the call for me. If they’re looking for me, just say I’m busy." Qin Mobai placed the phone in Lou Xi’s hand.

"What if it’s something important?" Lou Xi hesitated to answer, "Besides, you’re not really busy!"

"I need to go to the kitchen to get some water, so I’m busy." Qin Mobai found a particularly perfunctory excuse and turned towards the kitchen.

The phone was still ringing incessantly, and Lou Xi had no choice but to answer it.

"Hello, I’m Shen Ruozhuo." A delicate voice came from the other end of the line, flowing into her heart like a mountain stream; the voice was so pleasant that it felt like it would make one’s ears pregnant.

However, Lou Xi quickly snapped back to reality.

The caller is... Shen Ruozhuo!

"I want to discuss something with you. I’m wondering when you’ll be available to meet."

Is this hinting at a meeting?

Certainly not!

"Um... Qin Mobai is currently busy." Lou Xi remembered the excuse Qin Mobai had given earlier and repeated it.

The voice on the other end clearly hesitated for a moment, surprised to hear a woman’s voice answering the call.

But quickly, Shen Ruozhuo composed herself.

"It’s you, isn’t it? The young lady I saw at the hospital last time." Shen Ruozhuo chuckled softly.

Yes, they had met at the hospital last time, but Qin Mobai had taken Lou Xi away hurriedly, without greeting her.

Presumably, there was no need for a greeting.

"...Yes, we met at the hospital." Lou Xi replied reluctantly.

Wasn’t she thinking that Qin Mobai’s real fiancée should be Shen Ruozhuo, even though they had no emotional connection, she was officially recognized.

Although Qin Mobai had already proposed to her, and they were planning their wedding, until the engagement was annulled, she remained his fiancée.
