"How could that be? Once a teacher, always a father, right? In the future, I surely won't miss the chance to bother you and ask for your advice."
"Pfft!" Leng Xiaoxie smirked, "Always a father? Do I look that old to you?"
Always a husband sounds about right!
"I'm just being respectful! How could you be old? You're definitely a 'young heartthrob'!"
"Young heartthrob?" Leng Xiaoxie tousled her hair into a little bird's nest, "So what you're saying is, you want to eat me up like grilled meat?"
"Listen to you." Memoria Campbell giggled, "I'd have to marinate you with some grilling sauce first at least."
Hearing the lightness return to her tone, Leng Xiaoxie smiled slightly and withdrew his hand.
"It's alright. Once you're over there, if you have any problems at work or in life... you can call me anytime. If I don't answer, it's probably because I'm on a mission. I'll call back when I see a missed call."
