Later, everyone loved discussing in secret the romantic past of that gentle, refined biologist.
Because no one could have guessed which shameless girl had put their beloved senior through the wringer again and again.
One time, after getting drunk.
The head of the research center, who never spoke above 60 decibels, suddenly pinned the newly graduated woman beside him, who was drunk and giddy, and shouted hysterically:
"I said I was wrong, okay? I won't stop you from eating toothpaste anymore, no matter how much you like it."
New graduate: ...
The head's eyes were red, his expression contorted. After a long while, he let go, covered his face, and slowly bent over.
"Why am I such a pushover?"
Much later, everyone in the lab was secretly gossiping about the senior's fiancee, who had just returned and still loved eating toothpaste.

Crack!
The familiar sound of a test tube breaking.
The little girl stood awkwardly in the corner of the lab, looking like she was about to cry.
"...Can I... get this reimbursed?"
The little boy beside her glanced at her and casually swirled the pale blue liquid in his hand.
"Obviously. You're not my wife, so why would you expect me to pay for it?"
Many years later.
The sight of the beautiful young woman biting her lip, tears in her eyes, overlapped with that memory. Ling Ting finally felt the weight lift from his heart and sighed silently.
"If it's a blessing, it won't be a disaster. If it's a disaster, there's no escaping it."
"Looks like I'll have to pay for that test tube after all."

After they got married.
On the long European-style sofa in the living room, Ling Ting held the woman in his arms, his thoughts wandering, and coaxed her into answering.
"When do you think I'm the most manly?"
"Hmm... Let me think..."
Meng Zhile looked at the man's Adam's apple and finally couldn't resist biting it.
"..."
Ling Ting groaned and nearly dropped her on the floor.
Meng Zhile had finally fulfilled her longstanding little wish. She raised her head, beaming, and looked at his helpless, amused expression.
"You're the most manly when you clear my shopping cart after you get your lab bonus!"
He knew it.

"I used to be cowardly. I gave up, and for a while I was selfish enough to want to live alone. But you've always been in my heart."
"You are every dream of mine that can come true, and every dream I don't dare reach for."
A sugary sweet romance, sweet enough to make your teeth ache!
