After ONS: Trapped by the Cunning Professor-Chapter 180 - 181: A Beauty Brings Trouble (1)

Young Master Qin finally understood the purpose behind the old master and madam’s invitation to stay for a chat after dinner.

He stood up from his chair as if he’d lost his patience, with an apologetic expression that didn’t match his tone. He said, "It’s getting late, Lou Xi and I will head home."

Everyone sensed that something wasn’t quite right.

The old madam was the first to react, questioning Qin Mobai, "You two are already living together?"

Isn’t that already living together?

"Lou Xi and I plan to marry, what’s wrong with living together?" Qin Mobai didn’t think much of it. "Today, I’m here to inform you that I plan to marry Lou Xi, not to seek your permission."

Qin Mobai’s words left everyone in the dining room silent, and the old master looked at Qin Mobai calmly, clearly very angry.

At last, he left wordlessly, walking into the room.

With the head of the family returning to his room, everyone else was left sighing.

Qin Mobai said nothing further, pulling Lou Xi up from her chair and walking out of the villa.

Although Lou Xi was very hungry and really wanted to eat, she understood the tense situation. She didn’t want Qin Mobai to strain his relationship with his family because of her.

Otherwise, would this be the legendary... femme fatale?

On the way back, Qin Mobai was driving, and Lou Xi was pondering how to speak to him.

Unexpectedly, it was Qin Mobai who spoke first, "Did you have enough to eat tonight?"

Why talk about food right off the bat? Lou Xi hadn’t been thinking about it, but his words did make her feel a bit hungry.

After all, she hadn’t eaten much tonight.

She nodded and then shook her head.

"Whatever you want to eat, I’ll have it delivered home. No need to go out."

"Anything’s fine," Lou Xi replied.

Qin Mobai knew there was no point in asking her, so he picked up his phone to call a restaurant and have Korean cuisine delivered home.

Anyway, as Lou Xi liked many kinds of food and wasn’t picky, she was easy to satisfy.

Once Qin Mobai finished his call, Lou Xi finally broached the subject, "Young Master Qin, am I... considered a femme fatale?"

After Lou Xi said this, the car fell into silence for a few seconds. She didn’t speak, and Qin Mobai didn’t either.

The car was enveloped in a strange silence, making Lou Xi feel somewhat uneasy.

"What’s... what’s wrong?" Lou Xi asked tentatively.

The response she got was Qin Mobai’s laughter.

Mocking?

Yes, mocking!

Qin Mobai, how dare you mock me!

"Be good, look at yourself in the mirror." Qin Mobai extended his arm, flipping down the sun visor with a mirror on the passenger side.

Lou Xi looked at herself in the mirror, found nothing wrong, and thought she looked quite good!

"I think I look pretty good..." Lou Xi said earnestly, wondering why she couldn’t be a femme fatale?

Seeing Lou Xi like this, Qin Mobai’s earlier gloom lifted, making him feel much better.

He reached out and gently ruffled Lou Xi’s head.

"You’re a beauty, not trouble," Qin Mobai said, seemingly casually but also with sincerity.

Lou Xi saw the seriousness in Qin Mobai’s face, showing he meant what he said.

She smiled, realizing how simple it was to cheer up Young Master Qin.
