Chapter 1019 

After lunch, Paul and Miranda took a stroll down the camps’s treelined path. Along the way, they ran into Christine, who was on her way back to the lab after lunch

Miranda!” 

Dr. Young.” 

I rarely see you around campus. What’s going on? Didn’t you head to the lab today?Christine asked

Miranda replied, I have class in the afternoon.” 

Have you eaten?Christine asked

Miranda nodded. Yes, I have.” 

With Paul?” 

Yes,Miranda replied

Where?” 

The cafeteria,Miranda said

Paul couldn’t help but interject, Are you keeping tabs on as?” 

Christine snorted. What kind of boyfriend are you, Paul? Miranda’s been in class all day, and you couldn’t even take her out for a nice meal? She had to settle for cafeteria food?” 

He smartly stayed silent

Miranda quickly intervened to ease the tension. Dr. Young I heard you won an award for your research project. Congratulations.” 

Christine laughed. The news just came out this morning, How did you know?” 

Miranda smiled. I always follow your academic progress

Christine was genuinely touched. You’re always so thoughtful.” 

Then, she pointed at Paul. This guy doesn’t even know what project I submitted.” 

Paul shrugged. The lab respects each member’s personal development.” 

The project was something she worked on independently, and she applied for the award under her own name. The lab didn’t prohibit this, which was actually pretty democratic

Miranda, you have class in the afternoon, and it’s about time. Paul, let’s head back to the lab together.” 

He shook his head. I’m not going with you. I’ll take her to the academic building first.” 

Christine looked confused 

In the end, Miranda said it wasn’t necessary, and Paul followed Christine. Before leaving, he turned to her and said, I’ll pick you up after class.” 

Okay.” 

Christine nudged him. Aren’t you a little too loveydovey

Paul grinned. If you don’t like it, just close your eyes

She laughed and then reminded him, Just be careful on campus. Don’t be too obvious.” 

Worried that Paul might not understand, she added, It’s not good for Miranda.” 

This was the second time someone had reminded him

Paul gave a thoughtful glance. I understand.” 

Good. Just don’t mess things up for her. She’s worked hard to get to where she is.At that moment, there was no trace of humor on Christine’s face

In the afternoon, Paul picked up Miranda at the campus gate after school. They went to the supermarket to buy groceries, then headed home to cook 

However, they went to his place. Once inside, he pushed her onto the couch. You watch TV while I cook.Miranda laughed. Why the sudden desire to cook?She knew Paul could cook, and he was pretty good at it. I can’t always have you in the kitchen. As your boyfriend, Ishould help out with the chores too.” 

Okay. I’ll just wait for the food then,she said

He grinned. It’ll be quick.” 

40 minutes later, two meat dishes, one vegetable, and a soup were ready

Paul set the table, served the food, and called her over. Miranda, time to eat.” 

She got up and walked over to the table, where everything had been preparedher chair was even pulled out for her to sit

How is it?Paul asked as he handed her the fork

Miranda sampled each dish and praised him, it’s delicious 

He smiled and eagerly added more food to her plate. Eat as much as you 

like ” 

After dinner, Paul went to wash the dishes. Miranda followed him into the kitchen as she intended to dry the dishes, but he wouldn’t let her

I told you, I’ll handle this. You don’t need to help,he said 

She sighed. Then, what am I supposed to do here? I can’t help with anything” 

Paul stood firm. You don’t have to do anything. Just stand there and relax.”
