Candice laughed out hard before asking the server for water. She was amused to watch Rui's tangled expression.
He was obviously trying to evade the possibility of offending her or else he would end up in a great disadvantage.
She then drank the glass of water and got into a little serious mode of hers, but still said with a tone of evident tease, "Since I owe you one for saving me back then, I will help you out this one time. But everything will go according to my wish and how I want it to be. So, just dance to my rhythm... Dr. Meddler."
She had a lopsided grin plastered over her face as she waited for his answer.
"Do I even have a choice?" Rui replied wryly and shook his head. Then he suddenly asked, "By the way, since when did you become a Professor?"
Candice chuckled and said, "Since yesterday, Doc. Ask one more question and you are not going to like my answer. Go home now. Cali is alone… Better watch out for her more carefully…"
