Zhou Xinping opened the cloth with trembling hands, took a deep breath after seeing the stone inside, took the thing, stood up quickly, and walked behind the cabinet in the library hall.
After carefully placing the jade on the counter, he took out a pair of black gloves from the cabinet, put them on, and then picked up the jade again to examine it carefully.
Zhou Xinping held the jade and said in a trembling voice, "This is glass-type jade. I've never seen such fine quality before. Where did you get this, girl Han? Tell me the truth."
Han Wanying didn't dare to speak the truth, so she could only cover up, "I have a friend who works in the black market. Someone recently offered this, but the price is a bit high, and some people don't dare to buy it for fear of getting into trouble. I thought it looked pretty good, so I bought it."
Zhou Xinping was so shocked by the jade that even his usual vigilance dropped. He didn't doubt Han Wanying's words, which were full of loopholes. Instead, he said, "This thing is very valuable. Han girl, you can be said to have picked up a big bargain this time."
Zhou Xinping thought for a moment and said, "Girl Han, if you trust me, just give this thing to me and I will definitely take care of it for you."
Han Wanying looked at Zhou Xinping with a hint of surprise. He didn't expect that Zhou Xinping was also knowledgeable about jade carving. Han Wanying looked at the expression on Zhou Xinping's face and knew that Zhou Xinping must have some knowledge before he said that to her.
So, Han Wanying nodded and said, "Okay, then if there are any materials left, just give them to Grandpa Zhou. I won't need them anymore."
Zhou Xinping quickly said, "No need. It's great that you're willing to let me make this. Why would I ask for your stuff? The material is very expensive. Although it may not look worth much now, it will definitely be valuable in the future if you keep it well."
Han Wanying smiled and said, "It's good that I have something finished. I won't be able to use the materials, and there won't be much left. Just consider it as your labor fee, Grandpa Zhou."
Then, without waiting for Zhou Xinping to refuse, he said directly: "Grandpa Zhou, if you refuse again, I can't give this thing to you."
Zhou Xinping sighed and said, "Alright, then I, an old man, will take advantage of you."
Han Wanying looked at Zhou Xinping and said, "Where is it? I have to thank Grandpa Zhou for helping me."
Afterwards, Zhou Xinping discussed with Han Wanying how to plan. After the discussion, Han Wanying left. Han Wanying watched as Grandpa Zhou Xinping directly closed the library. The sign on it read "Closed today."
Han Wanying looked at Zhou Xinping and smiled helplessly. It was the first time she saw Grandpa Zhou Xinping so upset.
Afterwards, Han Wanying completed the task of carving jade pendants in the county, so she went straight back to the machinery factory.
When he was going back, he happened to see You Xing taking the information out. When he saw Han Wanying, You Xing hurried forward and greeted her warmly.
"Director Han, you're out again today." You Xing said to Han Wanying with a smile.
Han Wanying nodded. "Well, what's this, Assistant You?"
You Xing replied, "We just sent a group of people away, and now another one is here. Oh, and Assistant Bai told me to see you and tell you that the parts you're looking for are almost here. Assistant Bai said he'd have someone move them over for you today."
"I understand. Assistant You, please go and get busy. I won't keep you any longer." Han Wanying said to You Xing.
After that, Han Wanying went in, and You Xing went to the station to pick someone up.
When Han Wanying arrived at the research office, she saw several people coming out.
The leader saw Han Wanying and walked up to her and said, "Director Han, everything you requested has been moved in. Assistant Bai said that if there's anything missing, you can just go find him."
Han Wanying nodded and said, "Thank you for your hard work, I'll go take a look later."
Han Wanying first returned to her office, took her things and went to the room where the parts were placed. After that, Han Wanying never came out of that room.
Three days later, You Mi put the meal at Han Wanying's door, then knocked on the door and shouted, "Director Han, I put the meal at the door for you, remember to eat it later."
After You Mi finished speaking, he was about to turn around and leave, but he didn't expect that when he turned around, he saw Su Yi and others standing at the door of the laboratory.
He asked in a worried tone, "Has Miss Han not come out of there yet?"
Youmi shook his head and said, "No, he's either in his office or in this room. He's never been back."
Kang Hong said worriedly: "Why don't we go in and take a look? It's not going to be a good thing if it keeps going like this."
Even Su Yi nodded in agreement, but he didn't expect Wu Chenling to stop them.
"I think Miss Han is very sensible. She always eats the food Assistant You brings her. There shouldn't be any problem. Let's wait a while before we talk about it. What if we interrupt her train of thought by going in?"
After listening to Wu Chenling's words, the few people felt that it made some sense, so they controlled themselves and decided to wait and see.
Two days later, even the factory director was alarmed. He brought Bai Zhi to the door of the research office and asked Su Yi and the others, "What's going on? You're just going to let this guy stay away for five days, right?"
"Can that person bear it? No, we must get this girl out today no matter what."
Bai Zhi advised the factory director, "Director, Director Han must have his own plans. There's a place to sleep in this office, so it's definitely okay."
The factory director fumed and glared, "How can that be the same? Even if you guys stay in there for a year, I won't be willing to take care of you. How old is this girl Han? She's still a little girl. Children of this age are the most important. What if she doesn't grow taller in the future..."
Then he talked a lot about physical matters.
