Who can blame them when Gu Zhiyun is so outstanding and has such a charismatic personality?

She often regretted that she met Gu Zhiyun too late.

"Yes, everyone works very hard. We researchers have to be able to endure hardship and tackle key problems. I think you two work even harder than others, which is why we occasionally improve your meals."

While Tang Xiaoran was answering Yang Xuechang's question, her eyes were actually fixed on Gu Zhiyun.

Gu Zhiyun finished all the food except for the fried egg, and then he closed the lunchbox.

Tang Xiaoran asked, "Xiao Gu, why aren't you eating fried eggs?"

"Teacher Tang, I'm full."

Gu Zhiyun felt that refusing directly would be too abrupt and ungrateful, so he could only say tactfully, "Let's save this fried egg for dinner."

Tang Xiaoran's eyes darted around, then she smiled and said, "Okay, you can eat whenever you want."

Yang Xuechang knew that Gu Zhiyun would never eat the fried egg.

He would take it back to his dorm and give it to his roommates to eat when they said they were hungry.

He wouldn't directly say that the eggs were given to him by Tang Xiaoran, but would tell his colleagues that they were extra food distributed by the cafeteria to everyone in the dormitory, and that whoever was hungry could get them.

Gu Zhiyun always handled the things Tang Xiaoran gave him in the same way.

"Oh, by the way, Xiao Gu, come to my office tonight. I need to discuss some issues with you."

Tang Xiaoran informed Gu Zhiyun in a formal tone.

He then left the laboratory.

Gu Zhiyun immediately said to Yang Xuechang, "Brother Yang, come with me."
