Chapter 78, Heartbreak



Chapter 78, Heartbreak

After dreaming all night, Qi Yuan was in a daze for a long time after waking up in the morning.

"You look pale, are you sick?" Chu Yuan put his hand on her forehead while eating breakfast. "Your temperature is normal, didn't you sleep well?"

"I was dreaming." Qi Yuan poked the fried egg in the bowl, "I dreamed about some things in the past."

"Oh? Are you remembering our past romance?"

Qi Yuan shook his head: "I don't remember it after I woke up."

Qi Yuan was very frustrated because he had a whole night of dreams but forgot everything after waking up.

Chu Yuan patted the girl's head and threw out the bait with a smile: "If you want to know, I can tell you."

"Really?" Qi Yuan was skeptical. "Are you so free?" Isn't this guy the captain of the first brigade? He's so busy that he's nowhere to be seen on weekdays. How can he have time to stay home and tell stories?

Chu Yuan smiled nonchalantly: "I'm not free during the day, but I can do it at night when I'm asleep. I'm more free at night..."

Qi Yuan said expressionlessly, "No thanks."

Chu Yuan shrugged nonchalantly: "Forget it then - next time you dream, remember to take notes so you don't have to worry about forgetting it after waking up."

Qi Yuan: "..."

…

The next day, Si Xu went out to the laboratory early. Before arriving at the laboratory, he went to the administrative hall first and changed his points registration system to Jiang Ran's name.

After receiving the ID card from the registration office and listening to the staff's explanation, Jiang Ran was surprised: "Can these points be transferred to someone else?"

"Of course." Knowing her identity, the staff member smiled politely, "It's just that few people would do that... It's like a prenuptial agreement between a couple. No one wants to share their property with another person, especially in this situation."

The staff member spoke so solemnly that Jiang Ran suddenly felt as if the ID card in his hand weighed a thousand pounds.

"Can I return this point?"

"Professor Si said he doesn't need this thing on a daily basis, so he gave it to you to kill time while you go shopping... Oh, by the way, Professor Si directly changed his points registration system to your name. This means that all the points he earns from now on will be recorded on your ID card." After answering diligently, the staff member showed an envious expression, "Ms. Jiang, Professor Si is so kind to you."

The points registration was changed to her name? Although Jiang Ran knew that person had an additional space and didn't care about the supplies and equipment in the base, she was still moved to tears.

Wow, it turns out that good men are only in novels. If there were such men in the world she originally lived in, she wouldn't have been single for twenty years.

After seeing off the staff, Jiang Ran took the prepared food to deliver lunch to Si Xu.

She was not very familiar with the base at the moment, and only after asking two teams of patrolling psychics did she find the door to the laboratory.

However, before she could enter, she was stopped at the door.

"Excuse me, this is a laboratory." The man blocked her way with one hand and looked at her with a squinting eye. "No entry for outsiders."

The man's scrutiny made her feel a little uncomfortable, but thinking about not causing trouble, Jiang Ran said politely: "I'm here to find Si Xu. Could you please help me contact him?"

The man looked away and said coldly, "Professor Si doesn't like to be disturbed when he's working."

Jiang Ran frowned: "Then I'll wait for him in the lobby, okay?"

"Laboratory, no entry for outsiders."

Jiang Ran was helpless and was just about to ask him to help hand the things to Si Xu when he heard the sound of boots rubbing against the ground coming closer.

"Captain Wei! Good afternoon!" The man with a cold face raised a gentle smile and politely greeted the girl who was approaching.

Wei Yage nodded, his eyes swept over Jiang Ran, and without stopping, he walked straight to the laboratory.

"Wait!" Jiang Ran glanced at Wei Yage and looked at the man who was stopping her. "Is she a laboratory worker?"

How could this woman be so ignorant? The man replied impatiently: "Captain Wei is the head of the sixth team of the Superpower Team."

"Since she's not a lab staff member, why is she allowed to come and go as she pleases?" Jiang Ran sneered. "No admittance to outsiders—so, does Wei Yage want to go in to donate blood or donate points?"

Irritated by her sarcastic tone, the man said in a deep voice, "Captain Wei has always been protecting the safety of the base and doing her best for it. How can someone like you, who relies on others for support, be qualified to judge her?"

"Huh?" Jiang Ran laughed instead of getting angry, "It seems you know who I am."

Su Qin said that many men in the base are fans of Wei Yage, and now it seems that this is true.

This guy is a fan of Wei Yage and is deliberately causing trouble for her in order to please Wei Yage.

In that case...

Jiang Ran didn't argue with the man. She looked directly at Wei Yage and smiled gently: "Captain Wei, he said I was an outsider and wouldn't let me into the lab building. What do you think?"

Wei Yage turned around and looked at her, raised the corners of his lips slightly, and said nonchalantly: "This is his job, please forgive me, Miss Jiang."

"So, you think so too?" Jiang Ran sighed, "Okay, since you all said so..."

Giving up so easily? I originally thought that even if she left Seventh Brother, this girl should still have some skills that would impress her.

Wei Yage snorted in boredom and turned to leave.

The man pushed Jiang Ran: "Go away! Don't disturb us while we're working!"

Jiang Ran avoided the man's hand and did not leave. Instead, she walked to the steps by the door and sat down.

The girl clearly didn't want to leave, and the staff didn't bother to pay attention to her.

I don't know how long I waited before I heard footsteps and voices in the hall.

She stood up slowly, holding the thermal box and waiting obediently.

"Ranran?" Chen Yao was the first to notice the girl standing obediently at the door. She glanced at Si Xu and teased, "Seventh Brother, Ranran is here to have lunch with you."

The drowsy man unconsciously quickened his pace upon seeing his little girl, leaving his colleagues behind.

"Si Xu." Jiang Ran didn't let being stopped ruin her mood. She happily jumped in front of him and said, "I prepared lunch for you."

When the girl stopped in front of him, he reached out and touched her cold face: "Why don't you go in?"

His voice was not loud, just loud enough for the few people present to hear.

The psychic on duty at the door turned pale and subconsciously glanced at Wei Yage.

Captain Wei was interested in Professor Si, and everyone on the Ability Team knew about it. Because of Captain Wei, the girls on the Ability Team tried their best to suppress their feelings towards Professor Si.

Of course, the men also lost interest in Wei Yage.

But not caring about her doesn't mean I won't protect her.

When they heard that Professor Si brought back a vase this time, the brothers in the team felt sorry for Wei Yage.

Some people also suggested teaching the vase a lesson and keeping her away from Professor Si. However, due to the vase's special status and the Shen family's support, they did not dare to act rashly.

He happened to be on duty today, and happened to see Hua Ping coming to see Professor Si, so he thought of using his position to make things difficult for her to vent Captain Wei's anger.

But... this was the first time he saw Professor Si being so gentle to a woman. This vase seemed to be more favored than he thought.

Thinking of Si Xu's various methods, the man's back was unconsciously soaked with cold sweat.

"Thinking that you're almost off work, it's just as well to wait here."

Without mentioning the obstruction she had just encountered, Jiang Ran glanced at Wei Yage, and the woman was also looking at her.

After their eyes met, Jiang Ran raised her head, her eyes curved into a beautiful arc: "Si Xu, can you make the decision about the lab?"

"Um."

"Then next time I come over, can I just go in directly without waiting outside? I hope it won't disturb you while you're working?"

Si Xu chuckled: "You can come to me anytime you want."

"Oh~" Jiang Ran drawled out the tone, glanced at the pale-faced staff and Wei Ya Ge who lowered her eyes, and replied with a smile, "I understand."

She said with a hint of meaning, "Next time I won't be polite and will go straight in to find you."

To catch a thief, first catch the leader; to kill a snake, hit it at its most vulnerable point.

Wei Yage knew how to use her subordinates to cause trouble for her, so she naturally couldn't let her get away with it.

Haha, Wei Ya Ge has a lot of fans, so what? She only has one Si Xu.

As the saying goes, killing someone destroys their heart - she is not good at killing people, but destroying their heart can be practiced more.

Jiang Ran's eyes narrowed more sharply, and she took his hand: "Where are we going to eat?"

Si Xu turned around and looked at Chen Yao and his group who were watching the show on the side. The latter immediately moved away to give the two of them some private space.

The moment he brushed past Wei Yage, Jiang Ran glanced at her tightly clasped hands with a smile and sighed softly: "Alas, some things, no matter how many shameful means you use, are not yours. In the end, they are not yours, hehe."

The woman did not stop or look back, but followed Shen Yao out of the hall.

Blood dripped onto the ground from between the clenched fingers.
