In order to promote competition, the organization would send Wang Ping to inquire about the progress at different nodes, so that each group could catch up with each other.

However, no one expected that this segment would be included on the first day.

"Then let's go first as a group."

Xiang couldn't help but feel fortunate that he had the foresight to translate it in advance last night. His diligence and ability would surely be recognized by the First Committee.

Sure enough, after Xiang finished reporting on his translation progress and the research progress of his group, Wang Qiwei praised him generously:

"Yeah, not bad."

It’s group two’s turn.

Hao Hong stood up, her voice clear, "I also translated last night. I translated five drawings tonight. I got stuck on some of the drawings I was translating today, so I only translated four, a total of nine."

As soon as these words were spoken, the faces of Group 1 members suddenly turned dark.

Because he stayed up late, he was not in a good mood. Also, because the engine diagram was too difficult, he only translated 2 of them. Together with the ones from last night, there were only 6 of them. Hao Hong had 3 more than him.

As the oldest and most experienced translator, he felt so embarrassed that he couldn't even show his face.

But fortunately, there is still a translator at the bottom of the third group. He is not the worst by any means, and can barely save face.

After Group 2 finished their progress report, Wang Ping commented with satisfaction:

"Well, not bad. As expected of the backbone of our China, the progress is very good.

Although the research progress of Group 1 and Group 2 technicians is similar, Group 2's translation progress is much ahead, which is quite good."

"Thank you for the affirmation from the committee. I will continue to work hard."

Hao Hong is an outgoing person, but she is also very willing to accept compliments.

The guy standing by was so angry that he wanted to bite.

Wang Ping was satisfied with the not-too-small gap between them, as it would encourage them to work harder and compete more.

"Where is Song Youyou from Group 3? Tell me about your progress last night and today."

…

It was already ten o'clock in the morning when Gu Xiao arrived in Beijing from the army.

Thinking that he was about to meet the lovely girl he had been thinking about, Gu Xiao felt all the fatigue he had felt along the way disappear.

"Brother Xiao, are you here?"

As soon as Gu Xiao stepped into the door, Old Mrs. Gu saw him and asked happily.

"Grandma." Gu Xiao put down his things and came to Grandma Gu.

"Why are you here at this time? Don't you usually come in the evening?"

"The mission is completed. I have a day off today, so I came to see grandma."

As usual, Gu Xiao massaged Old Lady Gu's legs as he got home to prevent muscle atrophy.

But his mind was not on his legs, but his eyes were searching everywhere for the figure he was thinking about.

They were all young people, so there was nothing Mrs. Gu didn't understand. She pretended to hit him on the arm and said jokingly:

"What do you mean by 'come to see grandma'? He obviously came here specially to see his wife, and you little liar is still trying to trick grandma."

"Look everywhere." Gu Xiao couldn't help but ask, "Where's Youyou?"

"Youyou is helping with the project as a translator."

Old Mrs. Gu told him in detail what happened when the first committee member came to see her.

After Gu Xiao learned that Qi Tian would not be able to see his wife, the fatigue he had been enduring for several days suddenly came over him.

"Grandma, I'm going to bed and take a nap."

After massaging Old Lady Gu's legs, Gu Xiao didn't even have an appetite to eat and went to bed to catch up on some sleep.

When I woke up, it was already afternoon.

Gu Xiao glanced at the time and felt that it was extremely long. Especially since the pillow he was lying on and the quilt he was covering himself with were all filled with her pleasant scent, which made it even more difficult to suppress his desire.

He finally understood what those soldiers meant when they teased him about "a short separation is better than a new marriage".

It is undeniable that he missed her and wanted to see her.

More than before I got married.

After a while, Gu Xiao dressed neatly and prepared to go out.

"Xiao brother, where are you?"

"I have something to ask. I'm going to the institute to look for the first committee member."

"Are you looking for the First Committee Member?"

Old Mrs. Gu felt a little strange.

If Brother Xiao has problems, shouldn't he go to the First Committee Member in the army? How big a problem does it have to be for him to go to the First Committee Member?

Besides, when did he get to know the First Committee Member?
