Afterward, Lu Tingli picked up a fruit knife and peeled an apple for Xia Ningxing.
"Feeling seasick?" Lu Tingli asked with concern as he handed her the apple.
"Not at all," Xia Ningxing shook her head and took a bite of the apple.
Lu Tingli's brows softened with warmth, and he let out a slight sigh of relief, "That's good to hear."
About three hours later, the ship finally arrived at the Island Research Institute.
Throughout the journey, Xia Ningxing didn't experience any seasickness or morning sickness, which might have been due to the good local conditions, or perhaps it was the change in environment and her anticipation that temporarily suppressed such reactions.
"Walk slowly," Lu Tingli cautioned, carefully supporting Xia Ningxing as they disembarked, afraid that she might slip and hurt herself.
Xia Ningxing felt a mix of warmth and sweetness in her heart, but she cheekily complained, "Lu, you're treating me like I'm disabled."
