Chapter 354: If 2 billion is thrown into the water, will there be any sound?

Ye Xiao was having lunch when Ye Jiaojiao started broadcasting at noon. He took a nap after watching half of it and didn't see the part about Aiwowowo. He couldn't answer it, but Si Ting watched the whole thing.

Si Ting fed Norton porridge with one hand and herself with the other. She took a quick glance and replied, "It's not a wild fruit from the wild area. This is called cherry. It's delicious. Big Sister Ye only gave it to us!"

Si Ting was used to calling her sister-in-law, and she kept blurting out "sister-in-law". Unfortunately, there were Dr. Hunter's colleagues in the medical room, so she just managed to brake in time.

cherry?

Hearing this word and hearing that Ye Jiaojiao only sent it to them, Ye Xiao nodded, his reaction was normal, and so was Dr. Hunter. Only Joshua, who came with Dr. Hunter, had a hint of confusion in his eyes.

cherry?

Is it the same name?

It must be a coincidence of names, right?

Otherwise, who would dare to eat cherries?

The food made by Ye Jiaojiao arrived in time, and the three children were all full. Dr. Hunter naturally would not snatch the food from the children, nor would he ignore his colleagues, so he invited Joshua to taste the two pastries together.

After staying at Ingrid College for more than an hour and confirming that Norton was not seriously injured, Dr. Hunter and Joshua returned to the research institute.

"Thank you for troubling you today, Joshua." In front of the elevator, the two were about to part ways, and Dr. Hunter expressed his gratitude to Joshua again.

Joshua is a senior scholar at the Imperial Medical School. The reason he appeared at the Research Institute today was because the two academies would have an exchange meeting recently. He happened to run into Dr. Hunt who was about to leave in a hurry, and when he learned that Dr. Hunt's son had fainted, he took the initiative to accompany Dr. Hunt.

"Dr. Hunter, I actually have a selfish motive for this trip." Thinking of Norton's medical report, Joshua paused and laughed bitterly: "Two years ago, I also consulted with that kid Norton. I still can't understand how his body could recover to this extent."

Can't figure it out?

If he hadn't experienced it himself, he wouldn't have dared to think about it.

Dr. Hunter curled his lips silently, did not answer, and turned into the elevator.

The top floor of the research institute.

In Hunter's laboratory, Grandpa Xia Ming and Charles were already sitting on the sofa. Seeing Hunter coming back, Grandpa Xia Ming ignored Charles's pained expression and said, "How is it? Is Norton okay? This is the natural food that Jiaojiao sent. You should send it to him quickly."

The package that Charles intended to hide secretly was not hidden after all. Someone saw it and reported it to Mr. Xia Ming, who snatched it away.

Old Master Xia Ming was not in a hurry to eat, but examined the food. He found that the five-grain porridge Aiwo Wo contained S-level energy, and the donkey rolls contained A+ energy.

I heard that Dr. Hunter took Joshua from the medical school to Ingrid College, so Mr. Xia Ming was waiting here with a lunch box.

"No need. Miss Ye also sent some food to Ingrid College." Dr. Hunter sat down opposite Mr. Xia and, after explaining, mentioned Joshua again: "He is very persistent about the reason for Norton's recovery."

"That's understandable." Xia Ming knew Joshua quite well, and suddenly teased Hunter: "If it were you, you would be even more persistent than him. You might even block his door 24 hours a day to ask for advice."

"Ahem—" Thinking of his state when doing research, Dr. Hunter cleared his throat uncomfortably.

On the side, Charles shrugged his nose, looking conflicted. He couldn't help but whisper, "Well, Uncle, since little Norton has something to eat, can we have a taste of this too?"

Xia Ming: "." A useless and unworthy descendant.

Still unable to learn the truth from Dr. Hunter, Joshua ended the communication meeting with the research institute and followed his mentor back to the medical school.

After a busy afternoon, I got home before dark.

As soon as he stepped into the house, a sharp cry of begging for mercy entered Joshua's ears: "Grandpa! Stop hitting me! If you hit me again, you will lose me, your precious grandson! My legs! My waist! Where's my fourth uncle! Help!"

The nephew's cry was like a devil's voice in his ears. Joshua, who had just stepped into the entrance hall, really wanted to turn around and leave.

Why.

The grandfather and grandson are here again

Why haven’t the eldest, second and third brothers returned from their business trips yet?

He also wants to go on a business trip.

The Qiao family's old housekeeper was originally anxious in the living room. He caught a glimpse of his fourth young master and his eyes lit up: "Fourth young master, please go and save young master Sun quickly. The old master is really angry this time and has been fighting for half an hour."

"Fought for half an hour?" Joshua was a little surprised.

He can still howl so loudly after being beaten by his father for such a long time. The little brat is quite thick-skinned. So, he must be able to hold on for a while, right?

Telling the old housekeeper not to worry, Joshua returned to his room, took a bath, changed into casual clothes, and then leisurely went to the study.

In the study.

Qiao Sirui, the youngest and only grandson of the Qiao family, lay on the ground like a dead fish, while Old Man Qiao was sitting in the first seat, obviously tired from fighting. "Father, how did Sirui make you angry again?"

"Fourth Uncle! You are finally here! Grandpa almost beat me to death!" Seeing Joshua coming, Qiao Sirui came back to life and became energetic again.

"Just the right time to beat you to death!!!" Glaring at his grandson, Old Man Qiao opened his laptop and pulled up the most recent spending from his personal savings account: "Look! Look! Not only did this brat skip school, he also spent two billion!"

Two billion!

My two billion!

You little brat, do you have the guts to spend your own father’s money?

I’m so old, and I only have this little savings, but it’s almost all spent!

So angry!

Neither Qiao Sirui nor Qiao Shuya had expected that Mr. Qiao was only worried about his own small treasury. The former felt guilty after hearing this, while the latter was surprised: "Sirui, what did you buy that cost 2 billion star coins? Don't tell me you've been scammed."

Their Qiao family is an academic family second only to the Xia family. The direct descendants of the family are distributed in various industries. For example, he works in the medical school. The old man was the vice president of the Imperial Academy of Agricultural Sciences before his retirement. The eldest brother is also currently working at the Academy of Agricultural Sciences. The second and third brothers are more special. They are both researching thermal weapons.

Even though 2 billion is nothing, you should still hear a sound even if you throw it into the water, right?

No matter how Joshua thought about it, he felt that his nephew had been scammed.

"I'm not a liar. A good brother of mine sold it to me. He said it was a rare fruit that even the Academy of Agricultural Sciences hasn't replicated yet. In ancient China, only the most noble kings could enjoy it!" Qiao Sirui, who was only a few days away from adulthood, covered his butt and climbed up from the ground with a groan, retorting angrily.

"Hahaha! Fruits? You said you bought fruits that the Academy of Agricultural Sciences doesn't even have?" Old Master Qiao, who was originally worried about his small treasury, laughed angrily when he heard it. As he laughed, he felt like a Buddha again: "Little fool, forget it, forget it. These 2 billion are just a lesson. I'm tired of beating you." Let's stop here for today.

Qiao Sirui interrupted his old man mid-sentence, pouting and unconvinced, "Grandpa! I really bought it! My brother told me to personally deliver the fruit to me tomorrow morning!"

"Tsk! Fine! Tomorrow morning, right? I'll be waiting for him at home!" Old Man Qiao was provoked by Qiao Sirui: "If he really sends you fruits that the Agricultural Science Academy doesn't even have, my little treasury will belong to you!!!"
