The dim light in the room seemed to sense the two people's depression at the moment and became even dimmer.
Shen Qiqi and Lu Qing looked at each other, holding the letter of termination of cooperation in their hands as if they were holding a hot potato.
The air was so heavy that it seemed frozen. Only the ticking sound of the old-fashioned wall clock struck their hearts one by one, like a depressing march.
"This... this is too deceptive! Are they kidding us?" Lu Qing couldn't help but swear, and his thick eyebrows twisted into the shape of the Chinese character "川".
Shen Qiqi took a deep breath and tried to calm the waves in her heart.
"Don't panic, there will always be a way." Although she said this, she was not sure in her heart.
These days, the technological barriers are higher than Mount Everest, and finding a suitable partner is harder than finding a needle in a haystack.
Just then, a sharp laugh broke the silence in the room, like a needle piercing an already fragile balloon.
"Oh, isn't this the third young lady of our Lu family? I heard that you are going to make some technological innovation? Oh my god, I'm dying of laughter. With your skills, you still want to make innovations? I'm afraid you will innovate in vain!" Second Mrs. Lu walked in with a twisted waist, her face full of sarcasm.
Shen Qiqi glanced at her coldly and said nothing.
Her mind was full of technical problems right now, so she had no time to argue with this gossipy woman.
Seeing that Shen Qiqi ignored her, Mrs. Lu became even more excited, "Why aren't you talking? Did I say it right? Let me tell you, technological innovation is not just playing house. If you don't have any real skills, don't mess around, lest you embarrass yourself!"
Shen Qiqi took a deep breath and uttered a few words lightly: "What does it have to do with you?"
Mrs. Lu choked and her face turned red and white, "You..."
"Get out." Lu Qing interrupted her coldly, his eyes as sharp as a knife.
Mrs. Lu was frightened by his aura and left in anger.
Shen Qiqi rubbed her temples and felt a splitting headache.
To make matters worse, the technical problem has not been solved yet and more trouble has come to the family.
But she knew she couldn't be defeated by these trivial matters.
She stood up and walked to the window, looking at the dark night sky outside, took a deep breath,
"Brother Qing, let's..." Shen Qiqi paused, turned and walked towards the door, "Let's go to town."
The research institute in the town is more like a large warehouse than a research institute.
The mottled walls, the rusty iron doors, and a musty smell hit me in the face.
Shen Qiqi and Lu Qing pushed open the creaking wooden door, and the smell of dust choked Shen Qiqi and made her cough.
"Ahem, this place is too..." Shen Qiqi covered her nose, looking at the simple equipment and the mountains of technical information in front of her, feeling her head buzzing.
"The conditions are a bit tough," Lu Qing was also a little confused, "but Researcher Zhao is the only serious scientific researcher in our town."
As he was speaking, a middle-aged man with messy hair and thick bottle-bottom glasses looked up from a pile of documents. The white light reflected on the lenses looked like a searchlight.
"You're here," Researcher Zhao pushed up his glasses. "I've already sorted out the information. Take a look."
Shen Qiqi walked over and picked up a thick stack of information. The densely packed formulas and charts made her scalp tingle.
This feeling is more exciting than the final exam.
The small space was filled with a tense atmosphere, like the calm before the storm.
"This thing is more difficult to deal with than the cow in our village..." Lu Qing scratched his head, looking confused.
Shen Qiqi took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down.
She flipped through the information page by page, her eyes gradually becoming focused.
Suddenly, she seemed to have discovered something and her eyes lit up.
"Wait! Here..." She pointed to a formula in the document. "If we think about this formula differently..."
She picked up a pen and began to calculate quickly on the paper, muttering to herself.
Lu Qing watched her from the side. Although he didn't understand what she was saying, seeing the shining light in her eyes, his heart was filled with hope.
An atmosphere of excitement spread around her.
"It's done!" Shen Qiqi raised her head suddenly, her eyes flashing with excitement.
"I think we can try this method!"
Lu Qing looked at her confident look and felt full of trust in his heart.
He believed that as long as Shen Qiqi was there, no problem would be unsolvable.
"What do you need me to do?"
Shen Qiqi smiled slightly, "Help me find it..." Before she finished speaking, she suddenly stopped and her eyes fell on a toolbox in the corner of the room...
Lu Qing rolled up his sleeves and turned into Shen Qiqi's "human toolbox", handing her a wrench and looking for a screwdriver. His agility made him look like a network administrator helping people turn on their computers in an Internet cafe.
He moved gently, afraid to disturb Shen Qiqi's thoughts, and his eyes would occasionally fall on her focused profile, the tenderness in his eyes almost overflowing.
There were no extra words between the two of them, only tacit cooperation, and the air was filled with a warm and sweet atmosphere.
Shen Qiqi occasionally raised her head and met Lu Qing's smiling eyes. Her heart warmed up and a warm current flowed through her body. It was the feeling of happiness surrounded by love.
She quickly adjusted her state and continued to devote herself to solving technical problems.
She did not rush to ask Researcher Zhao for help. Instead, like a nerd with a shot of chicken blood, she frantically flipped through the obscure materials, not missing any details, as if she was playing a game of "Find the Difference".
Researcher Zhao originally thought that Shen Qiqi would come to him confused like other people seeking help.
