Chapter 370 Ordinary Researcher
After returning to the research institute, Tang carefully locked the medicine in the cabinet.
He turned around, walked to his office, picked up the phone, and dialed the Kunming Urban Research Institute without saying a word.
Once the call connected, he eagerly called out, "Old man Chu, I'd like to thank you for your selflessness."
Master Chu paused, a hint of doubt flashing in his eyes, and asked, "What do you mean?"
Old Tang couldn't control the smugness in his tone, and his words had a smug feel to them.
"Brother, I want to thank you for refusing Comrade Gu Yihan's deal."
"It gave me the opportunity to meet her, which led to me receiving three bottles of life-saving medicine."
Master Chu's eyes flashed with displeasure as he listened to Old Tang's irritating tone.
He snorted coldly: "What does it have to do with me that you got the potion? You don't need to brag about it to me."
He was furious. He was clearly closer to Gu Yihan because of the squirrel.
But she's so clever; having such a great thing in her hands, why doesn't she immediately consider their research institute?
That old bastard Tang got it for nothing.
Upon hearing this, Old Tang couldn't help but smile. It seemed that Master Chu didn't know that Gu Yihan had initially sought out him.
Thinking of this, he was overjoyed.
His tone was smug: "Of course it has something to do with you."
"If you hadn't refused to protect Li's father and mother, Comrade Gu Yihan wouldn't have made a deal with me,"
Upon hearing this, Master Chu paused for a moment, then seemed to realize something.
His expression suddenly turned cold.
She slammed down the phone, jumped up, and stormed angrily toward Leng Xiao's office.
Leng Xiao looked up and saw Master Chu walk in with a gloomy face.
He thought it was that clueless junior brother who had angered him.
She quickly stood up, smiled, and walked over to his side, saying with a grin, "Master, which brat made you angry?"
After saying that, he helped Master Chu sit down in a chair, and poured him a glass of water.
Master Chu glanced at Leng Xiao: "Did Comrade Gu call a few days ago?"
Leng Xiao looked at Master Chu with surprise and asked in confusion, "Master, where did she find you?"
Master Chu knew from Leng Xiao's words that Gu Yihan had indeed made a phone call.
He was so angry that his blood rushed to his head, and his vision went black for a moment.
Trying to calm her anger, she took a deep breath and stared intently at Leng Xiao.
He gritted his teeth and said, "So, Comrade Gu made a phone call?"
Leng Xiao didn't catch Master Chu's tone and moved a stool to sit opposite him.
She pouted and said with dissatisfaction, "Master, you don't need to worry about Gu Yihan. She just does whatever she wants."
"She asked you to shelter a politically connected couple? Isn't that setting you up, Master?"
Master Chu was so angry at Leng Xiao's nonchalant tone that he almost fainted.
He roared, "Why didn't you tell me!"
Leng Xiao was startled by Master Chu's roar and looked up to meet his furious eyes.
He paused for a moment, then explained, "Master, you were busy with Old Chen's affairs at the time."
"I thought what Gu Yihan said wasn't important, so I didn't tell you."
Master Chu's face turned black with anger upon hearing this.
Seeing that Leng Xiao still looked confused, he grabbed the notebook next to him and threw it at him.
He said sternly, "Whether it's important or not is up to me to decide, not for you to refuse without my consent!"
Thinking of those three bottles of medicine, Master Chu's heart ached, and he looked at Leng Xiao with icy eyes.
"From now on, hand over your work and go work in the lab!"
Leng Xiao picked up the notebook that had been thrown at him and then fell to the ground.
He was startled when he suddenly heard Master Chu ask him to go to the laboratory to be a regular researcher.
He hurriedly and anxiously asked, "Master, where did I go wrong? Please tell me, and I can correct it."
Master Chu gently touched his heart, feeling so constricted that he could hardly breathe.
"Do you know that the medicine in Old Tang's hand was given to him by Gu Yihan?"
"She originally wanted to work at our research institute, but you rejected her."
Upon hearing this, Leng Xiao's eyes were filled with shock. He looked up at Master Chu, who had no expression on his face.
“Master, I didn’t know. If I had known, I wouldn’t have…”
Suddenly, he realized that he hadn't listened to Gu Yihan's words at all twice, so he hung up the phone.
Master Chu glanced at Leng Xiao's eyes and a hint of disappointment flashed across them: "You should hand over the work you're doing to your junior brother first."
"Master, I will change. From now on, no matter who calls, I will tell you everything in detail."
"Please don't transfer me to the lab, okay?"
A regular researcher in the lab has to climb the ladder step by step; for him to go there now would mean starting from scratch.
Master Chu looked at Leng Xiao quietly and said coldly, "Your heart is not stable, and you are not suitable to be by my side."
After saying that, he stood up, walked past him, and went straight out of the office.
Leng Xiao stood blankly in the office, never expecting that Master Chu would transfer him away from the core department over such a trivial matter.
...
Family Compound Service Station
Gu Yihan finally finished dealing with a group of enthusiastic military wives and plopped down on a small stool.
He sighed and said, "I'm dying of thirst."
Liu Yufang walked over carrying an enamel mug and said with a smile, "Being a celebrity isn't easy, is it?"
Gu Yihan patted her calves, looked up and smiled: "The military wives in our family compound are so warm and welcoming."
Liu Yufang chuckled and said, "Here, have some water to soothe your throat."
Gu Yihan smiled as she accepted the enamel mug and thanked her.
Yang Yue saw Gu Yihan taking small sips of water.
She couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Xiao Han, if you're thirsty, just gulp it down. We won't laugh at you."
Liu Yufang smiled and nodded, saying, "Yes, we're all women, there's no need to be so reserved."
Gu Yihan paused in her drinking, glancing at Yang Yue and Liu Yufang.
He said irritably, "Drinking water in big gulps is bad for your spleen."
"ah?"
Yang Yue looked at Gu Yihan with surprise and asked in confusion, "Why is drinking water in big gulps bad for the spleen?"
Liu Yufang and Qin He exchanged a glance.
He then looked at Gu Yihan, wanting to know why it was bad for her stomach.
Gu Yihan: "I heard it from someone else. If you want to know, you can ask the doctor."
After get off work
Gu Yihan and Liu Yufang walked home hand in hand, chatting and laughing.
"Oh my god, look! Isn't that Hu Meili wiggling her butt in front of us?"
Gu Yihan looked in the direction Liu Yufang was pointing, and when she saw the way Liu Yufang was walking...
Her lips twitched involuntarily; she didn't know who taught her to do that, it was like a Labrador Retriever.
Liu Yufang whispered in Gu Yihan's ear.
He whispered, "Do you think she's seeing someone else? Otherwise, why would she be acting like that?"
Gu Yihan shook her head: "I don't know, I'm not familiar with her."
