Chapter 297
Gong Jingyuan couldn't face Su Yunnuan's cold gaze.
Gong Jingyuan was very upset. His research project had come to a standstill and his rescue efforts had turned out to be such a mess.
He glanced at Su Yunnuan, who was looking out the window calmly. Gong Jingyuan then stared at Shi Linhua, who was crying her heart out.
"The real IOU is here." Widow Wang then took out the IOU and handed it to Gong Jingyuan.
"Teacher Gong, you must keep the IOU carefully and don't let anyone tear it up again." Su Yunnuan reminded Gong Jingyuan in a calm voice.
Gong Jingyuan's face turned red all of a sudden. This time, he took the IOU seriously and took a look at it. It was indeed the IOU signed and stamped by Shi Linhua.
"Shi Linhua, return the money quickly." Gong Jingyuan became even more impatient.
"I, I, I was forced, really, I was really forced, I have no money, I have no money."
Shi Linhua kept shaking her head and crying very sadly, but she couldn't say that she had schemed against Su Yunnuan and that was why she was retaliated against. If so, how would she establish her authority over her team members in the future at the institute?
"Don't talk nonsense. You are a medical aid worker. If you didn't owe us money, none of us would force you to sign." Widow Wang looked serious. This woman was really interesting. She actually wanted to not give her money. That wouldn't do.
"Yes, Mr. Shi, you said that they were forcing you. With your skills, how could you sign if they didn't have leverage over you?"
Luo Xu also reminded coldly from the side.
"It can't be that you fell asleep and someone else pressed your fingerprints, right? But why didn't anyone else let us press our fingerprints, but let you do it?"
Wang Meihua also pretended to be confused and asked.
Shi Linhua was speechless and she didn't know what to do.
"If you don't have money, we can collect some for you. Give it to Mrs. Wang quickly and then return us when you go back." Gong Jingyuan was already very impatient.
Shi Linhua had no choice but to take out ten yuan from his pocket, and then his ten colleagues also took out some money from their pockets, but because they were in a hurry, no one brought extra money.
A total of one hundred yuan was collected.
Gong Jingyuan looked at the money in his hand and could only say sorry to Widow Wang.
"Mrs. Wang, we can only collect one hundred yuan now, and there is one hundred yuan left. Look..."
"Don't leave without money. Leave her here." Widow Wang pointed at Shi Linhua and said.
Shi Linhua was very angry. She really wanted to go up and beat up Widow Wang, but she didn't dare to do so in front of so many people.
"Sister Wang, we are from the research institute, so it is impossible for us to keep her here. Can you change the IOU to 100 yuan? I can urge her to pay you back as soon as possible after we go back."
Gong Jingyuan could only say good things to Widow Wang. Widow Wang thought about it, looked at this handsome man, and her eyes rolled again.
"Either she stays, or you stay. If you leave, where should I find you?"
Widow Wang is not stupid. She must keep someone. Of course, keeping Gong Jingyuan is the best because then he can marry her daughter.
If she likes such a handsome man, her daughter will definitely like him too.
Moreover, this man is a doctor, and seems to be a leader. People with jobs have a fixed salary, so his family will live a prosperous life in the future.
When Gong Jingyuan heard that Widow Wang had even set her sights on him, his face became even uglier.
He really hated himself for helping Shi Linhua, but the other party was so cunning that he couldn't settle the matter at all.
"This watch of mine is worth 150 dollars. I'll leave it with you as collateral. When I have money, I'll redeem it."
In the end, Gong Jingyuan had no choice but to take off the watch on his hand and hand it to Widow Wang.
Widow Wang looked at the watch, then stole a glance at Su Yunnuan. Seeing Su Yunnuan blinking gently, she knew that the watch was real.
"Okay, come back and redeem it anytime, and I'll give you the IOU." Widow Wang took the hundred yuan and the watch and left happily.
The car then started again. Shi Linhua kept sobbing, which made the people in the car very annoyed.
"Okay, don't you know what you have done? You are being blackmailed and you can't even explain yourself. I really don't know what kind of immoral thing you have done." Liu Mei has been tired for a few days and wanted to have a good rest in the car.
But Shi Linhua just kept sobbing there, making it impossible for everyone in the car to fall asleep.
"You were blackmailed for two hundred dollars, how can you feel good about it?" Shi Linhua said unconvinced.
"It's impossible for us to be cheated. No flies will bite an egg without a crack." Liu Mei had disliked Shi Linhua for a long time.
Shi Linhua wanted to say something but was interrupted by Gong Jingyuan.
"Shut up, pay attention to your image, and don't affect everyone."
Shi Linhua could only shut her mouth. If it weren't for Gong Jingyuan's incident today, she would most likely have been left behind. She could only suppress her emotions.
Seeing that Shi Linhua had finally calmed down, Gong Jingyuan's gaze fell on Su Yunnuan's face again. He opened his mouth and thought to himself, forget it.
I will explain everything to Su Yunnuan when I get back.
Su Yunnuan closed her eyes slightly and counted the days since she came to the Northwest.
It has been more than three months, but my longing for Zhou Zeyuan has become stronger.
In her heart, she really couldn't believe that Zhou Zeyuan would treat her like that, and Zhou Zeyuan hasn't met her since he got angry. She wanted to ask him what was going on, and she wanted to die with a clear understanding.
A few hours later, they returned to the institute and Dean Li personally came to the door to greet them.
He was very excited to see that all ten researchers returned to the institute unharmed.
After shaking hands with the researchers one by one, Dean Li welcomed them into the institute.
After arriving at the conference room, all ten members sat down, and Dean Li had someone pour them hot tea.
"You all performed very well this time and completed the task very successfully. Your superiors have given you high praise, and have awarded you a third-class merit and a bonus of 100 yuan each."
After Dean Li finished speaking, all ten of them applauded enthusiastically.
"Okay, now you all go back and take a shower and change your clothes. I'll give you two days off. You can leave the institute and go to the market."
This time, Dean Li’s words were recognized by everyone, and they could finally go out for a walk.
After the meeting, everyone returned to their dormitories to take a shower and change clothes.
After Su Yunnuan and Wang Meihua took a shower, Wang Meihua ran to Su Yunnuan's bed and insisted on sleeping next to her.
Su Yunnuan did not refuse. It had indeed been a long time since the two of them had spent a good time together. During the more than ten days in the mountains, they were really in the same place every day, but they didn't even have time to say a word.
