The people in the office looked at each other and sighed heavily.

Everything was fine, I don't know why the higher-ups suddenly made such a request, isn't it unnecessary?

Colonel Zhou asked, "Old Fang, why did the higher-ups suddenly make this request? We've all seen An Ran's abilities. Furthermore, all her information has been thoroughly investigated. There's nothing wrong with her, so why are they doing this?"

Commander Fang shook his head and said, "I don't know why either. I felt strange after receiving the call. I told you later that I really don't know why. I'm also very confused. Also, I want to report this to a higher level. What do you think?"

Captain Sun asked, "Who informed you?"

Commander Fang came up to a few people and whispered, telling them who it was.

The three of them were stunned. How could it be him? Why did he do this? Didn't they know that this pharmaceutical product would be of great use to the army?

Elder Wei said, "Just go there directly, don't alarm him. Report secretly to the higher-ups and hear what the other leaders mean."

Colonel Zhou asked, "Mr. Wei, do you support this? Is there something wrong with the formula?"

Elder Wei smiled and replied, "This girl is quite capable. We asked for the formula, and she gave it to us. But did we ask for the dosage, ratio, and order of the medicine? Did she tell us? Without knowing the dosage, ratio, and order, it's just a piece of waste paper. If we don't know these things, and we can't research and make it ourselves based on the formula, we won't know. It will take forever."

Hearing this, the three of them were stunned. Could it be that An Ran had tricked them?

Captain Sun asked, "Mr. Wei, why didn't you say it just now? Wouldn't it be okay to let An Ran write it down?"

Elder Wei snorted coldly and said, "She's already unhappy. Didn't you see how hard she tried to suppress her anger? If I told her to write it down, would she listen? She'd definitely turn this upside down, wouldn't she? You sent her here, and then you sent someone else to spar with her. She's already cooperated when she should, and now you're doing this to her. Even a clay man has some dignity! She's been able to endure this long, which is good enough. Do you really think she's a pushover? I'm putting it this way, that girl is fearless. If you really piss her off, you'll regret it forever."

After a pause and some thought, he continued, "Also, do we understand the real intention behind this? Is it his personal idea, or is it something from above? If it's his personal idea, then there's no hope for this drug research. Now, isn't this where we're stuck? The person involved is gone, and you're leaving me with a piece of paper and no idea of ​​the dosage ratio. How am I supposed to make it? By the time I figure it out, I'll probably be reduced to ash."

Commander Fang said, "Well, Elder Wei, you go back and study first. I'll set off now to see if this is the higher-ups' intention. Old Zhou, Sun Hai, I'll leave the rest to you. Cao Kun is busy working on a battle plan, so thank you two for your attention."

After leaving the army, An Ran went directly to the hospital to continue seeing Cao Mo.

I stayed in the ward until noon. Then I went to the supply and marketing cooperative and called Yun's family. After chatting for more than ten minutes, I went to the state-owned restaurant and bought two meals: one of braised pork and one of shredded potatoes. I packed them up and carried them home.

When she got home, she saw Cao Kun busy in the kitchen. She said, "Stop working. I packed the food for you. Just eat it."

Cao Kun was a little confused and took the food from her hand. He asked, "Ranran, weren't you in the lab researching pharmaceuticals? Why are you back at this time?"

An Ran sneered and replied, "You guys are quite interesting here. You agreed to something at the beginning, but you can actually go back on your word. This really broadens my horizons."

Cao Kun frowned. Did he regret it? Why?

Seeing his puzzled look, An Ran told him what happened again.

The more she spoke, the tighter his brows furrowed. Is there something wrong here? It felt like someone was trying to stop the pharmaceutical production. Who was it?

He said, "Of course, don't be angry. I think there's something wrong here. The higher-ups take this matter very seriously and it's impossible for them to change their minds at the last minute. I think someone is trying to sabotage this."

An Ran nodded and said, "I'm not that angry, I just feel like I've been fooled. But then I thought about it and had the same idea as you. But who is so powerful that their claws can stretch so long?"

After thinking for a moment, he said, "Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. It's up to them. That's their business. It's okay if I don't go. I can go to the hospital and see Cao Mo. Oh, by the way, I didn't have time to ask you yesterday. Are all the things in this room new?"

He nodded and said, "The cabinets, bed, and table were all made by someone. The two bicycles outside are new, one for you and one for me, both made of Phoenix manganese steel. And the sewing machine and tape recorder are also new."

After saying that, he took out the watch from his pocket, took off the old watch on Anran's wrist, took out the new watch he bought, and put it on her wrist.

She continued, "Getting married requires three turns and one ring, so I started preparing long ago. My mom also had to prepare when we were in Beijing. But unexpectedly, Xiao Mo's incident happened, and we had to leave in a hurry. My mom converted the money for shopping into cash, plus the betrothal gift, and gave it all to me, asking me to give it to you. But luckily, I prepared everything here in advance, otherwise I would feel even more sorry for you."

After saying that, he stood up and went back to the house, took out a small handkerchief from his big bag, opened it and placed it in front of Anran.

Anran counted the money and found it was exactly one thousand yuan.

He asked, "Why is there so much money? Does your family still have money? Is your brother not getting married?"
