Compared to them, he had more time to discuss medical techniques with Jian Yixue, so there was no need for him to follow them.

The meeting room now felt just like a classroom.

...

Meanwhile, Qian Xinman, who had been escorted downstairs by security guards, had already returned home.

The Qian family.

In the living room, Qian Xinman lay on top of a plump, elegantly dressed woman, crying heartbrokenly and exaggerating her accusations against Zhou Yuxuan for what he had done to her.

The woman looked at the woman in her arms who had been bullied like this, and she was furious when she heard about it.

Seeing her daughter, whom she cherished so dearly, being bullied like this, the woman felt heartbroken.

Looking at the man sitting on the other side of the sofa, she spoke up for her daughter, "Husband, how could Yuxuan treat Manman like this! Our two families have been friends for so many years, and he just disregards our relationship like this!"

Honey, if you don't give me an explanation for this, I won't let it go!

The man on the sofa is Qian Ruizhi, the male head of the Qian family and the current head of the family.

At this moment, Qian Ruizhi's brows were furrowed, and his face was filled with barely concealed anger. Hearing his wife's words, his anger intensified.

"Don't worry, I won't let this go so easily."

Manman, don't cry. Daddy will take you to the research institute and ask Zhou Yuxuan what he means!

Shufang, you should pack your things too, we'll go together later.

The woman named Shufang was Qian Xinman's mother and the daughter of the Zhang family, a second- or third-tier aristocratic family in the capital.

More than 20 years ago, she married into the Qian family, a family of equal social standing, through a family-arranged marriage. After marriage, she gave birth to a son and a daughter, and currently has a happy family.

Zhang Shufang nodded quickly; she had the same idea.

Seeing her beloved daughter crying so heartbreakingly, Zhang Shufang felt extremely distressed.

If it weren't for the fact that the Zhou family has now aligned itself with the Ye family, and that her daughter is in love with Zhou Yuxuan, she would have long ago refused this marriage proposal.

Hearing her father's words, Qian Xinman, remembering the humiliation she had suffered at the research institute, nodded with a look of grievance.

Qian Xinman was truly wronged. The thought of how Zhou Yuxuan treated her made her unable to hold back her tears.

Qian Xinman knew that if her parents didn't stand up for her this time, she would never have the chance to see Zhou Yuxuan again.

That's what happened the last time.

From the moment they parted on bad terms, he began to avoid her. If his parents hadn't gone to his house later, she probably still wouldn't have seen him.

This time, Zhou Yuxuan will probably avoid her even more.

How could she allow such a thing to happen? Her father's actions were exactly what she wanted.

Looking at her daughter's tear-stained makeup, Zhang Shufang said with heartache, "Manman, come upstairs with Mom to tidy up. Your parents will take care of this for you, so don't be sad."

Qian Xinman nodded and followed Zhang Shufang out of the living room.

Qian Ruizhi watched the mother and daughter leave, then suddenly remembered something and picked up his phone to make a call.

...

In the research institute, in the conference room.

Jian Yixue continued to answer everyone's questions calmly and patiently, explaining what she knew and her own understanding to those who asked the questions.

After listening, the person who asked the question pondered for a moment, then looked as if they had suddenly realized something.

"So that's how it is. I was really stuck in a rut. Thank you so much, Doctor Yue, for your explanation. It has enlightened me."

After listening, Jian Yixue remained calm and nodded slightly in acknowledgment before moving on to a new question.

Zhou Yuxuan looked at Jian Yixue, who had been explaining for quite some time, thought for a moment, and then got up and walked towards the door.

After leaving the room, Zhou Yuxuan instructed his assistant to prepare tea inside. Just as he was about to return to the conference room, the elevator doors opened and a familiar figure unexpectedly appeared at the elevator entrance.

"Second Brother, what brings you here?" Zhou Yuxuan asked with a smile.

As soon as the words left his mouth, Zhou Yuxuan regretted asking them.

This is his habitual way of thinking. His second brother used to be a well-known workaholic, spending almost all his working hours on his job.

The person they couldn't call out no matter what reason they tried was now standing right in front of them.

He knew why without even thinking.

It's probably because his sweetheart is here.

Ye Mohan glanced at him, "Find your sister-in-law."

Upon hearing Ye Mohan's reply, Zhou Yuxuan couldn't help but roll his eyes.

See? That's how he replied.

They only feel happy when they're fed dog food (a Chinese slang term for witnessing public displays of affection).

"Where is your sister-in-law?" Ye Mohan asked as he walked up to Zhou Yuxuan.

Zhou Yuxuan glanced at the conference room not far behind him. "Look, in the conference room, they're answering questions for a group of old men."

Ye Mohan looked in the direction Zhou Yuxuan pointed and saw that the gate was tightly closed.

Her brows furrowed suddenly, and she walked toward the conference room before Zhou Yuxuan could wait.

Zhou Yuxuan turned around and saw Ye Mohan walking away, so he quickly followed.

At the entrance to the conference room.

Ye Mohan stopped, and Zhou Yuxuan stopped as well, wondering why Ye Mohan had suddenly stopped. "Second brother, why did you stop so suddenly?"

Ye Mohan squinted and pondered for a moment, then looked at Zhou Yuxuan and asked, "What age are the people inside?"

Zhou Yuxuan was taken aback, puzzled as to why Ye Mohan would ask such a question. Just as he was about to ask Ye Mohan, a sudden flash of inspiration saved him.

"Inside are all old men about the same age as Grandpa Ye. Don't worry, sister-in-law is safe."

Besides, would I betray my second brother? If there are bees, I'll prick them one by one before he even has a chance to act!

Zhou Yuxuan naturally understood why Ye Mohan would suddenly ask such a question, and quickly explained while flattering him.

Ye Mohan nodded in agreement and asked, "To your office."

Then, without waiting for Zhou Yuxuan to understand his meaning, he turned and left the conference room.

Seeing this, Zhou Yuxuan didn't understand why Ye Mohan suddenly changed his mind, but he resigned himself to following her and led her to his private office and lounge.

When he's busy with research, he usually spends the night here.

Although it's just a temporary place to stay, the room is decorated very formally, almost like a home, with all the necessary amenities.

Zhou Yuxuan looked at Ye Mohan, who was already sitting on the sofa, and said, "Second Brother, you can rest here for a while. I'm going back to the conference room first. I'll finish the event over there as soon as possible."

What a joke! His second brother has already come along; how could he dare let his sister-in-law stay here for too long?

If my second brother kills him later, no one will stand up for him.

He was the one who stole his second brother's men today, so he was in the wrong.

However, seeing that his sister-in-law agreed, he assumed that his second brother must also agree, so he didn't interfere further.

Now that his second brother has come knocking on his door, he understands perfectly well what's going on.

Hearing Zhou Yuxuan's sensible words, Ye Mohan nodded with satisfaction.
