Chapter 166 Chapter 166 [Rapid Progress]
After they opened up to Lin's parents about their relationship that day, He Xiu Ji and Lin Yi Mu no longer had to be secretive and began to show their affection openly to each other. Jiang Wanqiu and Lin Bohan, who already knew He Xiu Ji's identity, always doubted whether he was really the head of the He Group every time they saw him sitting around their son doing nothing, otherwise why would he have nothing to do every day.
After knowing his parents' thoughts, Lin Yimu teased He Xiuji about it, and He Xiuji looked at him lovingly and said, "Before I came to you, I had already arranged all the work for the next period of time. As the helmsman of a large group, I have so many people to support. If they can't share my burden, what's the point of supporting them?"
"Tsk, those damn rich people!" Lin Yimu said with some emotion after hearing He Xiuji's explanation.
Hearing Lin Yimu's words, He Xiuji laughed twice in a low voice and rubbed his hair a few times, saying, "What are you talking about the evil rich people? Don't forget that you are also one of the rich people now. Isn't this putting yourself in this situation?"
Hearing this, Lin Yimu curled his lips and muttered, "How can they be the same? Even if I make a lot of money by making mathematical guesses, I can't compare with Mr. He, who has a rich family and a lot of wealth, right?"
"Silly boy, have you forgotten that you are also a shareholder of He Group?" He Xiuji listened to Lin Yimu's muttering with amusement and pulled him into his arms and whispered.
Hearing He Xiuji talking about this, Lin Yimu felt a little complicated. He was touched by the sweetness of He Xiuji's feelings for him, but he also felt a little guilty because of He Xiuji's feelings. In comparison, he might not be able to make the same decision as He Xiuji.
Lin Yimu didn't really take the share transfer seriously. He just wanted to reassure his parents and return the money in the future. So he only thought about the millions of dollars he had earned. He didn't take the share transfer contract that He Xiuji signed to reassure his parents seriously, and didn't mention it.
Lin Yimu looked at He Xiuji with some entanglement, and said hesitantly: "Forget it. I just want to reassure my parents. I don't really want your shares in the He Group. And you know, I will only choose to engage in scientific research in the future. This means that we will probably be apart more often in the future. Maybe we will..."
"Xiao Mu," Lin Yi Mu was interrupted by He Xiu Ji who had been listening before he finished speaking. When Lin Yi Mu looked up at him, He Xiu Ji continued with a serious look: "I don't want to hear you mention that we will separate in the future. You know how I feel about you, and I don't think we will separate because we are together less and apart more. You have to have confidence in me and yourself. What I want is to spend the rest of my life with you."
Listening to He Xiuji's earnest words, Lin Yimu was unknowingly attracted by what he said about a lifetime. For Lin Yimu, it might be too early to talk about a lifetime now, but considering his age in his previous life, Lin Yimu is also 30 or 40 years old, so it is inevitable that he wants a stable emotional life and does not want to experience any passionate feelings like young people.
"Mr. He, I'm really glad to meet you at the right time. I hope we can spend the rest of our lives together." Lin Yimu was silent for a long time. After he had thought through all the messy thoughts in his mind, he looked at He Xiuji with a smile on his face as if he had made up his mind and said.
When He Xiuji heard Lin Yimu's words, the tension in his heart finally relaxed. Countless pink flowers appeared in his heart in an instant, and he couldn't help but tighten his arms around Lin Yimu. "Xiaomu, I'm glad I met you at the right time. We can definitely spend our lives together."
After saying this, the two of them hugged each other harmoniously for a while, and He Xiuji suddenly said, "Xiao Mu, since we have already met the parents, shouldn't you give me a proper name?"
Hearing this, Lin Yimu came out of He Xiuji's arms in confusion and asked, "Hasn't your name been cleared? I've already brought you to meet your parents, how else do you need to clear your name?"
He Xiuji looked at his little lover with a puzzled look on his face, and whispered in his ear, "I think we can hold an engagement ceremony first. Although we can't get a marriage certificate in China, we can also hold an engagement banquet to invite relatives and friends to gather. I want everyone to know that you are mine."
Hearing the whispers in his ears, Lin Yimu shrank his neck as his ears itched, but there was some uncertainty in his eyes, "Mr. He, are you really not afraid that this incident will have an impact on you? And once the media reporters know about it, it is likely to affect the stock market of the He Group."
Hearing Lin Yimu's concern for him, He Xiuji tapped his forehead tenderly and lovingly and said, "Don't worry about these. I will take care of them. Just tell me whether you agree or not, okay?"
Lin Yimu glared at He Xiuji with some anger, raised his hand and rubbed his forehead and said, "What will happen if I don't agree?"
"It's okay. I'll keep trying to make you agree next time. Xiaomu must have your own considerations if he doesn't agree." He Xiuji looked at Lin Yimu seriously and said.
Seeing He Xiuji, who was determined to achieve his goal, she stretched out her hand and pinched his serious face with a smile, then said with bright eyes: "You are really persistent. I can agree to hold an engagement ceremony for you, but you don't need to invite other people. Just invite my parents and uncle. As for your side, I don't know much about it. You can handle it yourself." At this point, Lin Yimu couldn't help but add a sentence with concern, "In fact, it is not necessary to hold an engagement ceremony. It would be bad if the bad things I said really happened."
When He Xiuji heard Lin Yimu's words, he kissed him on the cheek with a smile and said, "Don't worry, the things you worry about will not happen. Just wait for the engagement ceremony to begin."
He Xiu Ji said this, but he was also thinking in his heart that this way he would have the opportunity to be with him when he got into trouble, and even be in a position to help him solve these problems.
Lin Yimu nodded silently, feeling worried and happy at the same time. After all, even though he was a man of advanced mental age, he couldn't help wanting more beautiful things and memories when facing his lover.
The progress of the two became particularly smooth after they met the parents. After discussing the engagement in the room, they told Lin's father and mother about their plan early the next morning.
When Lin Bohan and Jiang Wanqiu heard that the two were planning to hold an engagement party in China, they looked at He Xiuji in surprise. They didn't expect that the other party would make such a proposal. Didn't he know the consequences of letting the media know that he liked a man?
Thinking of this, Lin Bohan, who had always been the decision maker in this matter, carefully explained the pros and cons to He Xiuji, and then asked, "Even so, are you still determined to do this?"
"I'm sure I have thought of all the troubles you mentioned, and I am confident that I can solve them so that Xiaomu won't be disturbed by the outside world. He can concentrate on doing whatever he wants to do." He Xiuji said solemnly.
Hearing this, Lin Bohan stared at He Xiuji for a long time with sharp eyes. Seeing that he did not back down, he nodded and said, "Okay, since you said so and Xiaomu has no objection, then I will not object to your arrangement. Just let us know when you have decided on a time."
After getting Lin Bohan's reply, the two looked at each other happily, and then turned their attention to Jiang Wanqiu, the mother sitting on the other side. Jiang Wanqiu looked at the expectant eyes of the two children. Although she was still a little reluctant in her heart and even disliked He Xiuji a little, she did not express any objection and nodded reluctantly in the sight of the two.
Lin Yimu and He Xiuji were very happy to get the consent of both parents. Even if their mother seemed a little reluctant, as long as she agreed, it meant that she had no objection to them being together, and it just took some time to digest it.
"Thank you, Mom and Dad. We will definitely live a good life in the future. I will not let Xiaomu suffer any grievances." He Xiuji promised Jiang Wanqiu and Lin Bohan in a serious look, and his way of addressing them changed from uncle and aunt to mom and dad.
Jiang Wanqiu and Lin Bohan were a little surprised and uncomfortable with He Xiuji's sudden change of words, but seeing that she was holding her son's hand tightly and their own son sitting next to her, they accepted his way of addressing them.
After that, He Xiuji stayed at Lin Yimu's house for another three days and then left, planning to go back and start preparing for the engagement banquet. In addition to this matter, the secretary had called him several times to urge him to go back to handle official business, and it was Lin Yimu who helped to answer the call again.
Then after a careful calculation, it seems that He Xiuji has been here for almost half a month. During this half month, apart from occasionally answering the phone or typing on the computer for a while, He Xiuji has been accompanying Lin Yimu and Lin's father and mother. Of course, he has been accompanying Lin Yimu more.
This is also the reason why Lin Bohan and Jiang Wanqiu are confused about He Xiuji's identity. After all, he has been too free recently.
After Lin Yi Mu received an urging call from his secretary, he realized that in order to spend more time with him, He Xiu Ji had handed over all official business to his secretary and managers. Even if he was required to show up, he would only give remote commands using the computer. Many documents that required He Xiu Ji's personal signature were still piled up in his office.
So after understanding the situation, Lin Yi Mu persuaded He Xiu Ji to go back early to deal with the backlog of matters and their engagement party arrangements, and only then did he persuade He Xiu Ji to go back.
The day after He Xiuji returned to Beijing, Lin Yimu also came out of the pink state of love and started to continue busying himself with his research.
He has completed both learning items in the system tasks within the deadline. What remains are the two three-year tasks. What he is currently researching is the drug that can kill cancer cells mentioned in his paper.
However, there has been no progress so far. Even though he has participated in the research in Professor He's experimental group, their research directions are different. So even if he gets some inspiration, it is very little, and it is unknown whether he can complete the drug research within three years.
There is even a side mission, manned space flight, which is an even more headache-inducing project.
Thinking of this, looking at the draft paper in front of him filled with messy calculation formulas, Lin Yimu could only crumple up the waste draft paper and throw it aside to start over.
