In the evening, Chief Engineer Sun spent a rare moment in the kitchen with Aunt Li.
Seeing them arrive, Chief Engineer Sun said with a smile, "Come here, little girl, let Grandpa give you a hug."
“She’s quite heavy, Chief Engineer Sun, you should sit up before holding her, so you don’t hurt your back,” Zhou Yuanchao said. Only after Chief Engineer Sun was seated did he hand the child to him.
Chief Engineer Sun has never had any children of his own, and he watched the little girl grow up from birth, so he loves her very much.
"Come and see, Grandpa! My little girl has become even more beautiful!" Chief Engineer Sun said with a smile, constantly teasing the child.
The little girl giggled from time to time in Chief Engineer Sun's arms.
"Yuanchao, Brother Huo, you two stay with Chief Engineer Sun. I'll go to the kitchen to help Aunt Li," Wang Ying said. Preparing a meal is not easy, and she couldn't let Aunt Li get tired.
“Okay, go ahead,” Zhou Yuanchao said. Three grown men taking care of one child should be manageable.
When Huo Yingjie went home, he would often bring them diapers, so they didn't have to worry about Niu Niu wetting herself.
Wang Ying went into the kitchen, and Zhou Yuanchao couldn't help but ask, "Chief Engineer Sun, I heard from the boss that we're all being transferred to Yanjing. Actually, I'm quite reluctant to leave here. Last time we went on a mission, I found that things weren't as good outside as they are here. It's all backstabbing and vying for fame and fortune."
“Not everyone is as indifferent to fame and fortune and dedicated to public service as Chief Engineer Sun,” Huo Yingjie said. “If we are bullied, it’s because we are not capable enough. Things are different now. I will protect you.”
"Thank you, boss," Zhou Yuanchao said, feeling grateful. He knew his shortcomings, but he just couldn't change them. Working under others, he would never do well, no matter how hard he tried.
Chief Engineer Sun smiled and said, "The reason I asked you to transfer with Yingjie is for your own good. I've told you so many times about your temper, but you just can't change it. Besides, although you're capable, you lack innovative thinking. Staying by Yingjie's side will be better than you working alone. Furthermore, I'll be retiring this August. Without me looking after you, you silly boy, you won't suffer any losses, but you won't achieve anything great in your life."
Chief Engineer Sun's arrangements reflect his good intentions.
"Thank you, Chief Engineer Sun," Zhou Yuanchao said gratefully. Having such an elder to guide him would benefit him immensely for the rest of his life.
Chief Engineer Sun, worried that Zhou Yuanchao might have some reservations, reminded him again: "Yuanchao, do the right things before you turn thirty, and after thirty, follow the right people. You know Yingjie's character. As long as you behave well, he won't treat you unfairly."
“I’ve got it,” Zhou Yuanchao said. “I know my shortcomings. Following the boss is like having a strong tree to lean on.”
If his mother was the person who loved him the most in the world, then Chief Engineer Sun was Zhou Yuanchao's benefactor, and Huo Yingjie was Zhou Yuanchao's guide.
Even though he knew Huo Yingjie was younger than him, Zhou Yuanchao still willingly called him "boss".
"I'll remember that," Chief Engineer Sun said. "Now that I've made arrangements for the two of you, I can rest assured. By the way, you have two weeks to make your own arrangements. You can figure it out yourselves."
"Chief Engineer Sun, after you retire, you should take good care of yourself and cultivate your health," Huo Yingjie said. "We'll come to see you often in the future."
"Haha, now that I'm retired, it'll be much easier to get around," said Chief Engineer Sun. He added that the number of talented people is gradually increasing, and it's time to make way for some younger people. He hopes that young people can dedicate more of their youth and enthusiasm to their work and promote the development of science.
Aunt Li was overjoyed to hear that her husband could retire.
Now she can often go back to Nanshi to visit her son and grandson. Although she wants to stay in Nanshi, she can't bear to leave her husband alone here, so she has to come to the research institute.
Once you retire, you can finally relax.
It's time to take a break.
Aunt Li brought out some wine, and Chief Engineer Sun was exceptionally given a small cup, which made him very happy.
Huo Yingjie and Zhou Yuanchao were a little reluctant to part, so they drank a few more cups. When they said goodbye that night, Zhou Yuanchao was unsteady on his feet.
Although Huo Yingjie had drunk quite a bit and was a little dizzy, he did not stagger.
"Brother Huo, please help Zhou Yuanchao up. He's such a grown man, and he's still drunk," Wang Ying said. Although Zhou Yuanchao loved to drink, he never got drunk. What's wrong with him today?
"It's nothing, he's just a little melancholy," Huo Yingjie said. Zhou Yuanchao probably hasn't told Wang Ying about his transfer to Yanjing yet.
Huo Yingjie didn't say anything about this, and told Zhou Yuanchao to tell Wang Ying when he sobered up tomorrow.
"What's bothering you?" Wang Ying asked curiously. Her husband's project had just been completed, and everything was going smoothly. What could he possibly be upset about?
"Hehe, don't worry, it's not a bad thing," Huo Yingjie said. "I'll tell you after Zhou Yuanchao sobers up, I won't say any more."
Wang Ying wanted to ask more questions, but Huo Yingjie didn't seem inclined to answer, so she didn't press further.
Even if it's not a bad thing, let's wait for Zhou Yuanchao to come to his senses.
Huo Yingjie escorted Zhou Yuanchao home before returning to his own dormitory.
Lying in bed, Huo Yingjie couldn't sleep. He tried to calculate his future fortune, but could only see that it was very auspicious, without being able to predict specific events. To avoid any backlash, Huo Yingjie had no choice but to give up.
Well, we'll deal with whatever comes our way, one step at a time.
Anyway, there was no major robbery.
The next day, Huo Yingjie announced the transfer order to his team members and treated them to a meal.
Huo Yingjie originally wanted to cook at home, but seeing so many ingredients, he realized he couldn't make it himself, and he didn't have enough plates at home, so he treated everyone to a meal at a restaurant in the residential area.
"Everyone, please order whatever you like," Huo Yingjie said. "You've all worked hard for me during this time. Now that I'm leaving, I'd like to treat you all to a meal as a farewell dinner. The mountains may be gone, but the rivers will flow on. Who knows when we'll meet again? But if you ever need anything, I'll do my best to help you as long as it's within my capabilities."
“Boss, we don’t want you to leave,” Qian Miaomiao said. “Working with you is tiring, but we get more holidays and bonuses. Most importantly, every project we work on is top-notch.”
“Yes, it will be difficult for us to get so much credit after the boss is gone,” Tang Xinliang said with emotion. Being by Huo Yingjie’s side not only allows him to learn many effective methods, but also broadens his thinking.
Everyone felt a mix of emotions, but they also knew that all good things must come to an end.
"However, boss, we still wish you success in your work, good health, and even greater success in your career," Qian Miaomiao said. She was an old team member who had been with Huo Yingjie from the beginning, and her status was extraordinary.
Seeing this, the others also offered their blessings.
Because they had completed their mission, everyone was relaxed and almost all of them got drunk, so they had to find someone to take them home.
