Qian Hong’s face flushed upon hearing that.
Zhao Yi hesitated for a moment before continuing, "...I’ll search through my contacts on my phone and introduce a few single, young talents to you."
Qian Hong’s face turned from red to pale, and she angrily retorted, "Go to hell!"
"What?"
Watching Qian Hong storm off, Zhao Yi scratched the back of his head, feeling a bit bewildered. He called after her, "Seriously, I know quite a few..."
Qian Hong disappeared from view.

Zhao Yi inexplicably touched his cheek, frowning and pondering, "Did I become even more handsome? So much so that even Sister Awesome became smitten with me? This..."
"I’ll have to be more careful when going out in the future!"
...
Zhao Yi knew that Qian Hong had some feelings for him, but emotional matters — well, what could he do? Being good-looking and too outstanding made it normal for multiple people to admire him.
When it comes to women,
Take, for instance, a goddess-level beauty, who would undoubtedly have a long queue of admirers behind her. Even if she had plenty of time and energy, she couldn’t possibly take care of everyone...
Cough, cough...
This example might not be the most appropriate, but the same applies to men.
Zhao Yi occasionally asked Qian Hong to help with delivering meals and taking care of things, but he also took care of her and showed concern. He didn’t want to owe her anything.
As long as he didn’t take advantage or owe her anything, it was not his fault for being too handsome and outstanding, attracting many people’s affection... it couldn’t be helped.
Zhao Yi did not want to spend a lot of time pondering this issue deeply.
After having a simple breakfast, he went to the classroom for class. During his free time after class ended, he wandered around the campus looking for inspiration.
For instance, the fish in the pond inspired him.
College campuses are truly beautiful.
On a clear and crisp morning, there were many couples leisurely strolling around the sports field. Some went to the distant grove, hugging and doing who-knows-what together.
Zhao Yi went up close for a few glances, hoping to find some inspiration. However, he found his hormones suppressed by the inferior looks of the girl involved...
"Zhao Yi, what are you doing!" ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm
From ten meters away under the tree shade, a voice yelled, and an eye stared directly at him.
It was Li Renzhe.
Of course, Zhao Yi wouldn’t go peeping at unknown couples. He had come to the grove to enjoy the scenery with Li Renzhe and Huang Wenqian.
Only to be discovered...
Zhao Yi calmly pulled Fan Lei closer, "Fan Lei said he didn’t see you in the cafeteria, so we came looking for you. Weren’t we supposed to play games together at noon?"
"Really?" Huang Wenqian looked at Li Renzhe with doubt.
"Yeah."
Li Renzhe nodded.
They indeed agreed on that, but after spending some time together, Li Renzhe and Huang Wenqian suddenly felt compelled to explore human anatomy and lost interest in playing games.
And these two actually came looking for them!
"Cough, cough."
Zhao Yi quickly said, "If we knew you guys were together, we wouldn’t have come. Sorry, we won’t bother you!"
"It’s all your fault, Fan Lei!"
"Let’s leave quickly!"
"It’s not..." Fan Lei was at a loss for words, "It was you just now..."
"You what you!"
Zhao Yi interrupted, "Is it even right for a bro to be a third wheel? It’s a moral issue."
...
The afternoon game felt less fun with fewer people.
Zhao Yi continued seeking inspiration. He was indeed searching for it, pondering the problem in his head while exploring the scenery.
After the afternoon classes, he went to the Biomedical Research Institute. The new equipment was arriving soon, and he wanted to watch the installation process in person. This allowed him to test the efficacy of the "Connection Law" on machines, possibly gain a better understanding of the equipment, and learn to carry out minor repairs in case of future issues.
It took three days to configure the new equipment. Zhao Yi visited the lab for these three days as well. On the second day, he bought a perch and placed it in a vacant glass container outside the laboratory.
When he was idle, he would watch the perch, observing its movement in the water and how it slowly died.
The other researchers, curious about Zhao Yi’s actions, approached him and asked, "What are you up to?"
"Are you going to eat this fish?"
Zhao Yi explained, "I’m just conducting some research."
"Research?"
Others couldn’t understand.
Some whispered and gossiped, "I heard from Ai Lixin that Zhao Yi seems to be working on some physics research."
"What does physics have to do with a fish?"
"Haven’t you noticed? The fish’s movement might be related to particles or something..."
"Really?"
"No, I heard Zhao Yi’s lab is applying for a major AIDS project. Maybe he’s preparing to use the fish as experimental material?"
"Fish... can be used too?"
"Aquatic animals also hold potential research value!"
...
Zhao Yi, unaware of the gossip, was indeed observing the fish’s movement. However, he wasn’t seeking any pattern, but observing and pondering to find inspiration.
As a result...
Of course, he found no inspiration.
Ai Lixin came over and said, "Zhao Yi, I’ve finished my report, and I’ve organized the applications for several projects."
"Okay."
Zhao Yi nodded, just as his stomach rumbled. Realizing he hadn’t had any inspiration for days, he made a tough decision, "Let’s have fish for dinner at the canteen later!"
