Chapter 0336 "Sit down, let's not make this too formal. I'm not used to it," Paul said.

Miranda couldn't help but laugh at his easygoing nature and sat back down.

Paul added, "I love your cooking, and this meal is the best thank-you I could ask for." He then raised his soup spoon and gently clinked it against hers before taking a sip.

He picked up a piece of fried chicken wing, crispy and golden on the outside with perfectly juicy meat Inside. The slightly charred edges combined with the tenderness of the chicken made for a rich and satisfying bite.

"It's hard to find chicken wings this good outside. You need a lot of luck,” he joked.

Miranda chuckled, “So I guess the rest of the chicken wings are all yours to finish?" Paul raised an eyebrow, his smile deepening. "I'd be more than happy to." By the tthey finished the meal, it was already 2:00 pm. They cleaned up the kitchen together before heading out.

Paul was off to the lab, and Miranda had plans to go to the library, so they walked part of the way together. When they reached a fork in the road-Paul going left toward the lab and the library to the right-Miranda instinctively followed him toward the lab. Then, she abruptly stopped, realizing that she no longer needed to go there.

Paul chuckled as Miranda's cheeks flushed. Embarrassed by this, she quickly turned and headed toward the library.

The next day, Miranda visited the lab, but she didn't cempty-handed-she brought homemade treats. Sandy and the others stared in awe at the beautiful little cakes in the box.

"Miranda, did you make these yourself? They're so pretty!" "I don't even want to eat them, they're too cute." "Is this a Hello Kitty? And this one's Jerry the mouse.... oh my gosh, there's even Bumblebee! You're so talented!" Bryan was eager to join in. He glanced over and spotted a Bugs Bunny cake, which he knew Elizabeth adored. "Miranda, can I take this one?" Sure, go ahead." Sandy immediately caught on, teasing with a knowing smile, "It's for Lizzy, isn't it?" Bryan grinned, nodding. "Yeah, it is." Silas had already started eating eagerly. As he devoured the food, he nodded furiously. "Delicious, and it's +25 BONUS Chapter 0336 not too sweet," he said between bites. Even though he wasn't usually a fan of sweets, he finished the whole thing.

"Thank you all for your help and support over this time, Miranda said. "I've finished writing my thesis, so after this, I probably won't be coming to the lab anymore." Sandy didn't seem surprised. She had anticipated this moment but hadn't expected Miranda to move this quickly.

"Don't make it sound so sad," Sandy said. "It's just the lab, it's not like we won't see each other again. We can still meet up whenever we're free." Silas seemed a bit reluctant. He had finally met a talented student who could keep up with him in quick calculations and intellectual discussions.

Upon hearing this, Bryan also nodded with a smile, "Yeah, we're all friends. We can still hang out." Miranda smiled and agreed.

Elizabeth, looking at the Bugs Bunny cake Bryan had placed next to her, couldn't help but pout slightly. Finally, the woman was leaving...

That evening. Paul treated everyone to dinner. Knowing his background, no one held back on the budget, and they chose a five-star restaurant. The restaurant had a classical courtyard style, with pavilions, bridges, and flowing water. The scenery of the venue was stunning.

Miranda had chosen a lilac-colored long dress for the evening, with her shoulder-length black hairtied heatly into a bum. She wore no makeup but looked clean and elegant. To complement the dress, she opted for a pair of heeled sandals. As they entered the restaurant, the path was paved with pebbles. Despite being careful, Miranda slipped slightly and fell backward.

Luckily, Paul was right behind her. His large hand gently supported her waist, keeping her from falling. Once she regained her balance, he released her and took a step back. "Are you alright?" he asked.

Miranda shook her head, smiling. "Thank you. I'm lucky you caughtin time."
