Chapter 503 It's never too late to take revenge
As Jiang Zhizhi lay in bed that night, she looked at Zhou Xiye leaning closer and smiled, "Aren't you tired after a whole day of meetings?"
Zhou Xiye bent down and kissed her, carefully and tenderly.
Finally, it gradually became more enthusiastic.
Jiang Zhizhi could sense the change in Zhou Xiye. Before, doing these things made him happy and excited.
But today, it seems like I'm carrying something on my mind...
Afterwards, Jiang Zhizhi still asked, "I've been feeling like you've had something on your mind these past few days. What's wrong?"
Zhou Xiye put his arm around her and gently patted her back: "It's just something at work, it's nothing. Do you want to take Shangshang and Xiao Zhouji to the temple fair tomorrow?"
Jiang Zhizhi thought about how Xiao Zhouji always acted like a headless fly whenever they went out, rushing around and refusing to hold hands or be hugged. Taking him out was really exhausting.
"Let's forget it. You know what kind of personality your son has. If we take him, we won't have to do anything but chase after him. And Shangshang wants to see everything. We'll be exhausted."
Zhou Xiye considered his son's energy levels and gave up the idea.
There's a reason why I never take them out of the compound to play.
In the compound, everyone knows Xiao Zhouji and Shangshang; wherever they go, they can be brought back.
Therefore, Fang Hua and Zhou Chengyu were not worried. As long as they did not leave the compound, the two children would not get lost.
But once outside the compound, someone definitely needs to keep an eye on you, and that person needs to be in great physical condition.
...
After the seventh day of the lunar new year, Jiang Zhizhi had to go to the laboratory to work on time every day. However, many other organizations only allowed people to start work after the fifteenth day of the lunar new year.
During the entire first month of the lunar calendar, I spent almost all my time visiting relatives and friends.
Jiang Zhizhi went to work, and Zhou Xiye took Xiao Zhouji and Shangshang to play in the yard. Whenever they went out, the people in the yard would scramble to take them away.
Fang Hua quietly observed that Zhou Xiye had gone out several times in the past two days, and each time before he left, he received a phone call.
It was still a woman's voice.
Fang Hua was very vigilant. Taking advantage of Jiang Zhizhi's absence, he warned Zhou Xiye: "Let me tell you, no matter how good the wildflowers outside are, you can't mess around with them."
"If you mess around, you'll face the loss of your wife and children, and the destruction of your family. Zhizhi isn't someone who can tolerate infidelity."
Zhou Xiye was both amused and exasperated: "Mom, what nonsense are you spouting? I will never date any other woman in my life except Zhizhi."
Fang Hua scoffed, "Men's words are deceitful; who knows if what you're saying is true or false? Then tell me, why have you been going out so much these past two days? And who was that person making the phone call? Was it a woman?"
Zhou Xiye paused for a moment and then nodded: "It's a woman, but there's nothing between us."
Fang Hua poked Zhou Xiye's shoulder with her finger in anger: "Look at you, what can I say to you? What do you mean 'nothing'? A woman calls you, and you go out. Who would believe you two are okay?"
"Don't make a mistake."
Zhou Xiye was helpless, knowing that if he didn't explain the whole story today, Fang Hua would keep nagging.
“That woman used to be in the cultural troupe. Her name is Qin Hongmei. I’ve met her a few times, but we’ve never spoken. But she came to me that day and told me that someone was eyeing Zhizhi.”
Zhou Xiye frowned as he spoke: "At first I didn't believe it, but after she told me some things, I felt I couldn't refute them. I went out these past two days to find out who was watching Zhizhi."
Fang Hua was completely bewildered: "What nonsense is this? What happened to Zhizhi? Did she do something wrong?"
"You can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want. If Zhizhi needs anything, tell them to come directly to Zhizhi!"
Zhou Xiye reassured Fang Hua: "Mom, there are some things I can't say right now, but don't worry, I definitely trust Zhizhi. I just want to resolve this before Zhizhi finds out, so as not to affect her."
Fang Hua looked at Zhou Xiye suspiciously: "You really never suspected Zhizhi?"
Zhou Xiye was silent for a few seconds, and Fang Hua immediately became displeased: "Look, look, I told you men, as soon as there's the slightest hint of trouble, you immediately stop trusting the person next to you in bed."
Zhou Xiye was both amused and exasperated: "Mom, that's not what I meant. My suspicions aren't what you think."
For a moment, he didn't know how to explain it.
...
As soon as Jiang Zhizhi entered the office in the lab, a colleague came over to her and said, "Professor Jiang, the Ministry of Health sent a team leader over today to supervise and communicate with us."
Jiang Zhizhi was taken aback: "When were you notified? How come I didn't know?"
"It was a call that just came in, and I answered it."
Jiang Zhizhi was a little confused, but then she thought that since the research funds were allocated by higher authorities, it was normal to send an inspector. She smiled at her colleague and said, "Okay, you can go ahead and get busy."
After Liao Guoqing was kicked out of the research group, all projects were temporarily managed by Jiang Zhizhi, who was responsible for personnel arrangements and the advancement of experiments.
She had to oversee and sign off on every step, even the most common fungal culture, which she personally supervised.
This concerns millions of children, and no one dares to let their guard down.
I was busy dealing with things all morning, including adjusting my work plan for the new year.
Jiang Zhizhi finally breathed a sigh of relief at noon. As she was about to go to the cafeteria with her lunchbox, the director of the health department came over with a young man.
The man was in his thirties, with a refined and handsome appearance, and wore gold-rimmed glasses.
He was wearing a black overcoat over a white shirt, looking clean and tidy.
The director smiled and called out to Jiang Zhizhi, "Little Jiang, come here, let me introduce you. This is Team Leader Chu, who was sent by our department to take charge of your work."
Jiang Zhizhi stopped and looked over. When she saw the man's face clearly, she couldn't help but clench the lunchbox in her hand.
He held on tightly to keep himself from losing control.
The director smiled and said, "Xiao Chu, this is Jiang Zhizhi, the teacher in charge of the entire experimental process."
Chu Fenghe smiled warmly and said, "Teacher Jiang, please guide me in the future."
Jiang Zhizhi bit her tongue and forced a smile: "Team Leader Chu, I'll have to trouble you to take care of me in the future."
But he was utterly shocked.
Chu Fenghe! He looks exactly like the commander who betrayed them in their own world!
Is it a coincidence, or did that traitor also travel through time?
Chu Fenghe smiled at Jiang Zhizhi's composed and dignified smile: "Actually, we've met before. You treated my brother, Chu Jiahe, when he was ill."
"There were a lot of people at home at the time, so you probably didn't notice me."
For some reason, these words gave Jiang Zhizhi a chilling feeling.
She raised an eyebrow and smiled, "I really didn't notice; I was too busy taking care of your brother."
Another point is, why haven't I heard before that Chu Jiahe has a younger brother? Wasn't it said that Chu Jiahe only has a younger sister?
The director laughed heartily: "You two know each other? That's great! You'll cooperate more in the future and strive for the experiment to succeed as soon as possible."
