But not long after he said this, the two people who were talking about work at the dinner table stopped talking.

Even Zhang Yazhi looked at the two workaholics in surprise.

After a brief silence, Chen Jianhong spoke.

"Let's eat. We'll talk about the rest later." Chen Jianhong looked at Chen Qizhao across the table. He didn't know if it was because of the hospitalization. They were not far away, but he always felt that the child's face had much flesh on it. Compared with his slightly chubby face before, he seemed to have lost weight after being hospitalized.

Chen Shiming also noticed Chen Qizhao. In the past, Chen Qizhao was very picky. Whenever he talked to his father about work, Chen Qizhao would always interrupt him impatiently or lose his temper. But during this period of time, Chen Qizhao hardly ever quarreled at the dinner table.

Chen Qizhao was still chatting with Shen Yuhuai, but he noticed the burning gaze from the opposite side, and when he looked up, he met Chen Jianhong's eyes.

Chen Jianhong said in a normal voice, "Qizhao, eat."

"Play with your phone after eating."

Chen Qizhao looked at the two of them with a little surprise, but didn't ask any more questions. He lowered his head and ate his meal.

It didn't take much time to chat with Shen Yuhuai. He Shuhang would definitely participate in this project. This was confirmed from the information provided by Special Assistant Xu. From Shen Yuhuai's words, it was not difficult to see that he was very clear about the venue and time of this project this year. Even if the other party did not disclose whether he would participate or not, it could be inferred from the current situation that the laboratory leak occurred within this two-month period.

When his friend chatted with him about this matter, he mentioned it casually and did not reveal much information. However, the reason why this matter caused widespread discussion was partly because problems occurred during the competition. In the end, the experimental group withdrew from the competition in order to avoid excessive public opinion discussion. If we calculate based on the time, taking into account the theft of confidential information from the company's patent application and the progress of the competition, He Shuhang had limited time to steal data, and it is estimated that it only happened in one or two months.

But there was a problem. He Shuhang had a pass and could enter the institute at will.

He didn't know the exact time, so the most he could do was to ask someone to keep an eye on He Shuhang. It was impossible for him to follow He Shuhang into the research institute, so he couldn't determine the exact time of the crime.

After finishing his meal, Chen Qizhao returned to his room and found He Shuhang’s class schedule from the information given by Special Assistant Xu.

Since He Shuhang was not found by the investigation team that year, it means that all his actions were in line with common sense, that is, he entered the research institute at the right time and stole data when no one in Shen Yuhuai's research group was there.

It is easy to investigate He Shuhang, but it is not easy to investigate Chen Yuhuai.

Everyone knows the college student's class schedule, but it is hard to say about the laboratory timetable for Shen Yuhuai's project. We can't let Special Assistant Xu check the research institute's affairs.

He thought about it and sent a message to Yan Kailin.

After sending the message, he was planning to sort out some other information when the housekeeper Uncle Zhang came knocking on the door and said that Chen Jianhong was looking for him.

Chen Qizhao seldom entered the study room in the Chen family villa. He remembered that when he was a child, Zhang Yazhi often brought him in to play. When he grew up, the study room became a place to discuss work, and he was even more reluctant to go there. Later, after the Chen family went bankrupt, the villa was auctioned off, and he had no chance to set foot in this place.

Chen Jianhong was sitting in his home clothes. When he saw him come in, he waved to him to sit on the sofa next to him.

Chen Qizhao didn't go over, but just said, "I still have some homework to do. What do you want to talk to me about?"

He seldom spent time alone with Chen Jianhong, and he didn't know how to handle the relationship between him and this often serious father.

If you don't want to make people angry, you can just meet less often.

After all, some reasons for quarrels are always beyond his expectations.

Chen Qizhao wanted to leave, but Chen Jianhong, who rarely did, kept him for a long talk and even asked the butler to bring him two cups of tea.

When Chen Qizhao saw the tea, his gaze paused for two seconds, "Didn't I say to throw away all the tea in the house...?"

housekeeper:"……"

Chen Jianhong's eyebrows twitched: "Did you throw away your brother's coffee?"

Chen Qizhao didn't think there was anything wrong with this. He continued, "You stayed up late and drank tea. Do you think your blood pressure is not high enough?"

The housekeeper originally thought that the tea was brought by Chen Jianhong to keep Chen Shiming for a talk, but seeing this situation, he had no choice but to look at his own master.

Chen Jianhong glanced at him and said, "Change two glasses of water."

The housekeeper had no choice but to take the tea away and replace it with two cups of water.

Chen Jianhong continued to ask: "Is there anything you don't understand in your homework?"

Asking about schoolwork... Chen Qizhao originally thought that Chen Jianhong kept him to ask something else, but he didn't expect that he was asking about such a common thing. As far as he could remember, the last time Chen Jianhong cared about his studies was a long time ago. Both brothers did well in their studies, so Chen Jianhong rarely cared about these things.

Chen Qizhao responded, "Not bad. Freshman courses are mainly general education courses, not many professional courses."

"Last time I mentioned that you were going to the company to study. If you don't have much classwork, arrange the time. Come to the company when you don't have classes." Chen Jianhong flipped through the documents in his hand. "Your brother started to get involved in the group's business when he was in high school. It's not too late for you to get involved now that you are in college... This is the list of companies under the group. I have asked someone to mark out the ones that are close to your school. Pick one you like. If you want Xiao Jiang to take you with you, you can stay under the project that Xiao Jiang is involved in."

Seeing this familiar document, Chen Qizhao recalled his previous life, but this time it came earlier than the previous life.

Chen Jianhong never gave up on him in his previous life. Even though this father was more strict than kind, he was always fair in distributing resources between the two brothers. There was such a document in my previous life, but it came late, and not long after that, Chen Shiming got into trouble.

If nothing had happened in his previous life, he might still be able to grow up under the protection of his father and brother.

It's a pity that things didn't go as planned, and he didn't have the chance to grow slowly.

Chen Qizhao flipped through the documents, and there were indeed some projects that were suitable for him at this stage... Chen Jianhong had indeed considered it for him, but his goal now was not these, and he did not have time to wait slowly. He caught a glimpse of a company at the end of the document and quickly made a decision: "Then let's go for this one."

Chen Jianhong hesitated slightly when he saw the location Chen Qizhao pointed to. This was a company under Chen's that had grown rapidly in the past two years. It mainly dealt in electrical appliances. Although it was not located in the group headquarters, it was close to S University and was more convenient for Chen Qizhao. He thought Chen Qizhao would choose the group headquarters, but he didn't expect him to choose this place. "No problem, I'll leave the rest to Xiao Jiang."

"Is there anything else? If not, I'll leave first." Chen Qizhao stood up and took the document away. "Do you still want this? If not, I'll take it back and have a look. If I'm not used to it, I'll move to another place."

Chen Jianhong wanted to keep him to talk, but when he saw that he wanted to leave, he had no choice but to wave him away, "Go, read your book."

Returning to the room, Chen Qizhao closed the door and immediately put away his casual attitude. He lowered his head slightly and looked at the documents in his hands, his eyes were cold.

There were not many conflicts between Y City Yicheng and Chen in the early stage, and there were only one or two minor contradictions, which were all resolved. After a certain incident in his previous life, there were more and more disputes between Chen and Yicheng. He later read the relevant information and remembered that one of the bigger incidents was the conflict between Chen's electrical appliance company and Yicheng over advertising. At that time, it was an important promotional node for the launch of a series of products for Chen, but at the critical moment, the spokesperson who was ready to sign at a high price was snatched away by Yicheng.

At that time, the project team had already prepared a relevant publicity plan for the spokesperson. The reversal occurred in the early stage of signing the contract. According to the artist's studio, the other party offered a high price, and considering the schedule for publicity, they finally chose Yicheng. Later, due to the fan effect of that artist, this incident had some impact on the company's products, resulting in poor results when that series of products was launched.

Chen and Yicheng finally became enemies.

This time, he had drugged the girl first, and there were also those minor frictions before. If the public opinion effect exploded, it would be exactly what Lin Shizhong wanted.

Chen Qizhao sneered and threw the document casually on the table.

"Uncle Lin, isn't this the good opportunity you wanted?"

-*

The next day, Chen Jianhong assigned an assistant to him. The assistant was a member of Chen Jianhong's assistant team and his surname was Yu. Chen Qizhao had a deep impression of this person. This person was later arranged to be with Chen Shiming. It goes without saying that all this was arranged by Jiang Yuze. It is estimated that Chen Jianhong handed the matter over to Jiang Yuze, and Jiang Yuze sent a confidant to assign him and supervise him.

Chen Qizhao added someone as a friend and then left that person alone. Privately, he asked his special assistant Xu to send him the projects that the company was preparing and running.

After staying at home for four or five days, Chen Qizhao finally escaped from Zhang Yazhi's clutches and returned to school. When they were at home, Zhang Yazhi looked at him as if he was a fragile object. She had to control his eating and drinking, and he almost vomited after eating all kinds of supplements. He unexpectedly missed the takeout food around the school.

"You're finally back." Yan Kailin leaned against Chen Qizhao's dormitory door, chattering about what happened during this period, "When you were not around, even the takeout didn't taste good to me."

Chen Qizhao asked, "Did you answer the question I asked you to answer last time?"

"You don't need to tell me. I remember the time when Brother Huai came in and went out very clearly." During the time when Yan Kailin lived in Shen Yuhuai's house, in order to avoid going out to drink when Shen Yuhuai was at home, he basically had a rough understanding of Shen Yuhuai's coming and going time on weekdays. "And there is a time table in his study. I secretly took a photo of it last time to avoid him, but it seems to be useless. Their time changes are quite large. I ran into him several times when I went out before."

He asked again: "But why are you asking about Brother Huai?"

"I haven't thanked him for the hospital matters yet. I want to find a time to invite him to dinner. But he's quite busy..." Chen Qizhao lied without changing his expression. He saved the pictures on Yan Kailin's phone and planned to do a time comparison later. As long as he could figure out an approximate time, some things would be much simpler.

Yan Kailin looked at Chen Qizhao thoughtfully, "But can't you just say no when you ask him out for dinner? Is it necessary to go through so much trouble?"

Isn't inviting someone to dinner just about asking for a time and place, and then taking action when both parties are free?

Chen Qizhao: "I often don't get a reply when I send him messages."

Yan Kailin: "That's true. He won't reply to messages once he enters the lab, but he usually replies when he comes out."

He sat down next to me. "You're being so secretive, like a classmate of mine trying to find out the class schedule of the school beauty in the next class."

Chen Qizhao looked up at him and said, "Boring."

"Brother, don't you follow the campus beauties? There's everything in the forum, including the freshman list!" Yan Kailin enthusiastically showed him his phone, "Look, you're in your major, and I'm in our major... During winter training, won't some pretty senior sisters come to visit us?"

The military training time at S University is different from that of other schools. Classes resume normally at the beginning of the semester, and only before the winter vacation will a half-month winter training be conducted.

Chen Qizhao thought casually, winter training...it's almost the end of the year, and so many things are happening at once.

Seeing that Chen Qizhao was not interested, Yan Kailin had to put away his phone and admire it himself. "Oh, by the way, speaking of Brother Huai, I just saw a post on the forum. It seemed that there was an open class in the Chemistry Department. It seemed to be taught by his tutor. Maybe he could go there to be a teaching assistant or something like that."

He was talking casually when he suddenly noticed Chen Qizhao staring at him. He paused and asked, "What's wrong?"

"When?" Chen Qizhao asked suddenly.

Yan Kailin had no choice but to go back and look for the post. "It seems to be the afternoon class. Because it is an open class, the school has done a lot of publicity..."

Open class...at this time.

Chen Qizhao said in a low voice: "Send me the classroom location."
