135. Don't worry, they won't say a word out of turn.
Professor Wei stared at the check, speechless for a long time. Gu Mingxia was incredibly generous; the amount on the check was more than Professor Wei had earned in all these years combined!
"Mingxia, these... are too many!"
After a long pause, he swallowed hard and spoke in a tone that wasn't his own. Gu Mingxia looked at the check that Professor Wei had placed on the table, which he seemed to want to give to her but couldn't bear to refuse, and smiled faintly.
No matter how noble a person is, they cannot resist the temptation of money. As long as the price you offer is enough to move the other party's heart, then everything else is not a problem!
Money isn't everything, but Gu Mingxia knew from a young age that you can't do without it! For example, if the check she wrote was only for a small amount, would Professor Wei still be acting this way? So, money is ultimately a good thing!
“Professor Wei, this is what you deserve! You know that the follow-up research on BH19 is crucial, and I also hope to develop a medicine to solve the aftereffects. What is this money compared to the talent of you professors?”
Professor Wei found Gu Mingxia's words quite agreeable. Those who engage in scholarship and research often possess a certain aloofness and dislike being tainted by money. Gu Mingxia directly conveyed to Professor Wei that the money she offered was utterly incomparable to their talent.
"Besides, once the experiment begins, you won't be able to take care of your families anymore. This money is for you to settle down. Professor Wei, please accept it on behalf of all the professors!"
Upon hearing her say this, Professor Wei smiled behind his glasses, coughed lightly, and folded the check in half before putting it in his wallet.
"Mingxia is absolutely right! Scientific knowledge is priceless at any time!"
"Professor Wei is absolutely right!"
Gu Mingxia still wore a faint smile, showing no intention of refuting him! He believed that scientific knowledge was priceless, while she felt that she could solve these problems with money! It was truly a wonderful thing that two people with completely different values could get along harmoniously.
"I'll accept this money on behalf of the other professors! Give me a call whenever you want us to come over for experiments."
Professor Wei smiled. This trip was clearly worthwhile. Although the spirit of scientific research is very important, one cannot do without money in this world! Being able to obtain a large sum of money while doing scientific research is not necessarily a bad thing, and it does not conflict with his purpose in doing scientific research at all!
"Then I'll see you out!"
Gu Mingxia did not despise Professor Wei's love of money. As the saying goes, a gentleman loves money but acquires it in a proper way. They use their scientific research achievements to earn money to live on, which is not something that is taboo.
After seeing Professor Wei off, Gu Mingxia returned to find Liang Yuhao standing at her office door with a smile on his face, holding a document.
"Sister Hao, how much did you pay to poach a group of professors?"
Gu Mingxia didn't say anything, but simply stretched out a hand and waved it in front of Liang Yuhao, who stumbled and almost knelt on the ground.
"Sister Hao, you're not trying to tell me you directly gave those people 50 million, are you?"
"Good boy, you're so smart! You've even learned to guess!"
Gu Mingxia turned around, pinched Liang Yuhao's cheek, then sat down in her chair, smiling faintly at him. Actually, Liang Yuhao was a very responsible person, and also had a certain talent for business. Under his leadership, Maoguang's performance had been steadily increasing recently. She suddenly became very curious: why would someone like him use a carefree, spoiled image to mask his true self?
"Sister Hao, why don't you poach me? I don't need fifty million, just give me five million and I'll be at your beck and call, whipped at will! Absolutely loyal to you, Sister Hao. Isn't that a great deal?"
Liang Yuhao knelt down beside Gu Mingxia and massaged her legs in a very obsequious manner. Gu Mingxia leaned back in her chair and reached out to pat his head.
"Good boy, Xiao Liangzi, you can kneel down and leave now!"
"twitter!"
The two looked at each other and suddenly burst into laughter. Gu Mingxia's somewhat depressed mood these past few days finally eased a little. Liang Yuhao sat in the chair opposite her, looking at her very seriously.
"Sister Hao, even though you have a lot of assets, you can't be a spendthrift, can you? You gave 50 million to just a few old men. Isn't that a bit too much of a waste?"
“Yu Hao, they are absolutely worth the price! I offered 50 million not just to poach them to work here, but because only they have all the experimental data on BH19. Do you think I'm just a rich and foolish tycoon? These people all know that 10 million each is for buying both the person and the data!”
Gu Mingxia had her own plans. These people seemed aloof and arrogant, but in reality, they all had their own agendas. No one would willingly hand over those old data unless the money was right!
"That's true, even teachers can be cunning!" Liang Yuhao nodded in sudden realization, then looked at her seriously and asked, "Sister Hao, what about our lab? What will happen to the lab?"
"I have a medical research lab under my name in the Gu Family Industrial Park! I'll bring people over tomorrow to renovate it and start research as soon as possible!"
"Sister Hao is truly amazing! Sister Hao, will you allow me to be your admirer and give you thirty-two thumbs up?"
Liang Yuhao gave her a thumbs up, and Gu Mingxia glared at him reproachfully, her brows furrowing tightly.
"I'm just worried that Xiao Yan might be in danger if he stays unconscious for so long! But we can't just rush him to the hospital, it's really a worrying situation!"
In front of Liang Yuhao, Gu Mingxia did not hide her worries. Liang Yuhao, who was also worried about Xiao Yan's safety, frowned and thought for a while before looking up at Gu Mingxia.
"If you are really worried about Xiao Yan, you can ask the Gu family or the Fu family's private doctors to come to your home to examine Xiao Yan! Forgive me for saying more, but I think it's best to have a doctor give Xiao Yan a comprehensive physical examination in his condition. As someone who does medical research, you should understand that if a person remains in a coma for a long time, his bodily functions will gradually weaken."
Gu Mingxia already knew what Liang Yuhao was saying. She frowned, tapping her fingers lightly on the table. After a while, she stopped tapping and smiled faintly.
"Don't worry, I know what to do! Okay, I'll head back now!"
"Okay, I'll go see Xiao Yan tomorrow!"
Gu Mingxia nodded, got up, picked up her bag, and walked out. As she drove away from Maoguang, Gu Mingxia made a phone call home.
"Liu Yan, is the soup I made this morning ready?"
"It's been ready for a while now. I've been simmering it slowly over a low flame for you, so you can have a delicious hot soup as soon as you get back!"
"No need, just pour it into the thermos for me, I'll go back and get it later!"
After hanging up the phone, Gu Mingxia stepped on the gas, and the car sped forward. In less than twenty minutes, she arrived home. Without even changing her shoes, Gu Mingxia went straight to Xiao Yan's room. Looking at his still pale and sleeping face, Gu Mingxia bit her lip, stared at him for a while, and then, with a determined heart, turned around, picked up the thermos on the table, and walked out.
"Xiaxia, aren't you going to eat?"
"If you're free this afternoon, why don't you take Xiao Yan outside to get some sun?"
Gu Mingxia rushed out, afraid that if she looked at Xiao Yan a few more times, she wouldn't be able to bear leaving. Thinking of his pale face, Gu Mingxia felt a pang of pain in her heart, an indescribable discomfort.
Xiao Yan, don't worry! I will make sure you get better as soon as possible! Believe me, it won't be long before you recover!
Driving, Gu Mingxia quickly arrived at the Fu family villa. Because Fu Heng was injured and unable to go to the company, Fu Hongchang was now in charge of the Fu Group again. So, apart from the servants, only Fu Heng was at home. Even Yang Jingyi had been taken out shopping by Fu Ziyu.
"Mingxia, why did you come in such a hot afternoon?" Fu Heng asked, his eyes showing obvious concern and anxiety as he saw Gu Mingxia braving the blazing sun. "Sister Fang, quickly pour me a glass of warm water."
"It wasn't too hot when I drove here. How's your arm recovery going?"
Gu Mingxia placed the thermos on the table, smiled at Fu Heng, put down the magazine in her hand, and Fu Heng smiled elegantly at her.
"Much better. It's so hot outside, Mingxia, please don't come here again."
"It's okay, once your arm is completely healed, I might not come even if you want me to!"
Taking the thermos, Gu Mingxia poured out the soup and placed it in front of Fu Heng, then sat down again.
"Drink it while it's hot."
Fu Heng didn't speak, but simply picked up the soup in front of him and sipped it slowly, his lowered eyes filled with deep emotion and joy.
"Fu Heng, could you please do me a favor?"
She didn't want to ask Gu Huaikun for help, so she could only come to Fu Heng! Gu Mingxia looked at Fu Heng's injured arm and felt a little embarrassed to ask him for help now.
"I will do my best to help you if I can!"
Fu Heng put down his soup bowl and smiled at Gu Mingxia. He was very happy that she was willing to come to him for help; at least it proved that she didn't treat him as an outsider.
Biting her lip, Gu Mingxia pictured Xiao Yan lying silently and pale on the bed. For Xiao Yan's sake, she still had to ask Fu Heng for help! After making up her mind, Gu Mingxia looked up at Fu Heng seriously.
"Here's the thing, I'd like to ask you to have your Fu family's private doctor go to Xiao Yan's place to give him a check-up! As you know, the news of Xiao Yan's coma cannot be disclosed for the time being, but if he remains in a coma, I'm worried that other health problems may arise."
"No problem, just give me a time, and I'll arrange for a private doctor to come to your place to examine Xiao Yan. Don't worry, those people won't say a word about it!"
