If you mean with "Google doesn't like this" then this could mean that Google may see it as a form of cloaking, then no, Google just indexes the whole page.

The question you should ask yourself, is whether or not those related questions and answers are really enough related to the page's topic. If no, then you will be better of if you do not publish those elements. Because, this could make your page(s) less relevant.

But, if related elements are really related and thematically relevant, publish them, no problem. Or, if you want move your visitors to read the related elements on their own pages, use truncating.

Create for all full answers a variable like:

<?php
$related = "full answer text;
?>


If you implement it on other pages like related, do it with something like:

<?php
echo substr($related, 0, 15);
?>
