Chapter 504 Since We're Here

After the director introduced the two to each other and saw that they knew each other, he felt like an outsider and said with a smile, "Alright, you young people must have common topics. You two chat, I'll be going now."

After the director left, Jiang Zhizhi had already mentally prepared herself.

Regardless of whether this Chu Fenghe looks like him or is a time traveler, she needs to be more vigilant.

After all, the revenge for being betrayed in his previous life was still unavenged.

If Chu Fenghe is from another time, that would be great!

Consider it revenge for everyone.

Seeing that Jiang Zhizhi was holding a lunchbox, Chu Fenghe smiled politely and asked, "Teacher Jiang, are you going to eat?"

Jiang Zhizhi smiled and nodded: "Yes, lunch time is tight, so I need to hurry up and get my food."

Upon hearing this, Chu Fenghe quickly nodded: "Okay, I'll go with you to check out the cafeteria food, and you can also introduce our laboratory to me."

Jiang Zhizhi maintained her official smile, revealing eight teeth: "Okay, this way please, Team Leader Chu."

Chu Fenghe walked towards the cafeteria with Jiang Zhizhi, saying gently, "I was in Shanghai before and only came back at the end of the year, but I've heard about you many times. Everyone says your medical skills are amazing."

Jiang Zhizhi pondered for a moment, then smiled and said, "The rumors are a bit exaggerated. It's just because I'm the best graduate in our class, and I prefer studying medicine."

Chu Fenghe was somewhat surprised: "I heard that studying medicine is very hard, but I didn't expect Teacher Jiang to be so outstanding."

The empty, self-praising conversation was driving Jiang Zhizhi to the brink of rage.

Unfortunately, when I got to the cafeteria, they were no longer selling my favorite scallion meatballs.

There was only cabbage, tofu, and steamed buns.

Jiang Zhizhi doesn't like noodles. Even though she has lived in Beijing for so long, she still has some aversion to them. She frowned and reluctantly ordered a serving of cabbage and tofu, along with a steamed bun.

Chu Fenghe borrowed a lunchbox from the cafeteria and got a serving of cabbage and tofu, along with two steamed buns.

I found a seat with Jiang Zhizhi and sat down.

Chu Fenghe smiled at Jiang Zhizhi: "Don't you like noodles?"

Jiang Zhizhi shook her head: "How could that be? I just want to eat the scallion meatballs from the cafeteria, they taste really good."

Chu Fenghe nodded repeatedly: "I grew up in Beijing and am used to eating noodles. I'm not used to the South."

Jiang Zhizhi laughed: "Then you're used to a good life. Many people can't even afford white flour all year round. How can we be picky about food?"

Chu Fenghe laughed a few times: "That makes sense, I will definitely pay attention in the future."

Jiang Zhizhi didn't want to talk to him anymore, so she lowered her head and ate in silence.

Seeing Jiang Zhizhi eating seriously, Chu Fenghe observed for a while and then started eating with a smile.

After finishing her meal, Jiang Zhizhi went to the washroom to wash her lunchbox, and Chu Fenghe followed her: "I heard you have twins, a boy and a girl? How old are they?"

Jiang Zhizhi's answer was simple: "Three years old."

Chu Fenghe smiled and said, "What a coincidence, my daughter is also three years old. We can play together sometime."

Jiang Zhizhi replied politely but perfunctorily, "Okay."

They went back to the office together, and Jiang Zhizhi briefly introduced the laboratory staff and the current daily work plan to Chu Fenghe.

Finally, Jiang Zhizhi breathed a sigh of relief after Chu Fenghe returned to his office.

Sitting in the chair, I felt my entire back was soaked with sweat.

In her previous life, the commander who betrayed them wasn't named Chu Fenghe, but his appearance was so similar that she had to be wary.

The commander is a man who smiles while harboring malice; he cares about everyone's life and is kind to everyone.

In many situations, even when his teammates made mistakes, he would take the initiative to take responsibility.

He is considerate of his subordinates' hard work and also cares about their families.

Everyone felt that following such a commander would be a lifelong commitment without regrets.

But who would have thought that these very people, at the critical moment of life and death, would betray everything, even risking the lives of many of their loved ones?

What was originally meant to show concern for the families turned into a sharp knife at that moment, stabbing into the families of every team member.

Jiang Zhizhi gripped the pen tightly. She had indeed been living too well and had forgotten these memories.

Seeing this, Xiao Zhang, who was sitting across from him at the desk, asked curiously, "Teacher Jiang, what's wrong?"

Jiang Zhizhi quickly snapped out of her daze and smiled, "It's nothing, I was just thinking about some things related to the experiment."

Xiao Zhang, unsuspecting, smiled and reassured her, "Teacher Xiao Jiang, don't be too nervous. We'll keep a close eye on it and make sure the experiment doesn't go wrong."

Jiang Zhizhi's mind was in complete turmoil. Even after she got off work, she was still thinking about whether or not to tell Zhou Xiye about it.

Finally, I realized that Zhou Xiye had also been troubled by work lately.

As for her matter, it's a long story, so let's wait and observe Chu Fenghe before making a decision.

However, Jiang Zhizhi went back and told her family about the new colleague.

Even Fang Hua was surprised: "That idiot has a younger brother? I've never heard of that."

Zhou Xiye wasn't quite sure either: "I've never heard of that before. Is she easy to get along with?"

Jiang Zhizhi pondered for a moment: "So far, they seem easy to get along with."

After thinking about it again, he said, "I don't think he looks like Chu Jiahe either."

Fang Hua thought this was normal: "Chu Jiahe has the appearance of a mentally challenged person, so it's normal that he doesn't look like one. Chu Tiancheng and Chen Lanfeng are quite good-looking, and I heard their daughter is also very pretty."

Jiang Zhizhi had never met a daughter of the Chu family, but this Chu Fenghe…

Fang Hua was still quite gossipy: "I don't like the Chu family. One of their sons is a fool, yet he insists on getting married. I'll go and find out what kind of person Chu Fenghe is."

"Anyway, I don't believe that bad bamboo can produce good bamboo shoots."

Jiang Zhizhi laughed: "Mom, where are you going to ask?"

Fang Hua waved his hand: "The He family and the Chu family have a good relationship. Didn't they invite them to the wedding banquet? I'll go ask Zhuang Qin."

After a quick dinner, he put down his chopsticks and went to find Zhuang Qin to inquire about the news.

Zhou Xiye looked at Jiang Zhizhi feeding Shang Shang and thought for a moment: "Anyway, I can never let myself suffer a loss."

Jiang Zhizhi smiled and said, "Don't worry, if anyone dares to bully me, I will definitely fight back."

As if understanding, Little Zhouji raised his little fist and waved it at his father, saying, "Little Zhouji's fist hurts a lot!"

Zhou Xiye smiled and patted his son's head: "Then keep it up, little Zhou! Get your fists stronger and stronger. You'll use them to protect your mom and sister in the future, understand?"

Little Zhouji nodded immediately, puffing out his little chest: "Protect Mommy, protect Sister, Little Zhouji... is so amazing."

After finishing the meal, I cleared the table, played with the two children for a while, and then prepared to take a bath.

Fang Hua returned excitedly and pulled Jiang Zhizhi inside, saying, "I was wondering why I hadn't heard that the Chu family had a son. It turns out he's Chu Tiancheng's illegitimate son."

"Seeing that their mentally challenged son was beyond cure, they brought their illegitimate son back, but claimed he was their biological son, and raised him at Chen Lanfeng's parents' home."

Jiang Zhizhi frowned. An illegitimate child?

Is this identity real or fake?
