Chapter 141: Too Worried to Work
"Thank you all for your hard work, see you later~" Vivian walked past the photography crew, clasped her hands together and thanked them with a smile.
"Thank you for your hard work, Vivian.", "See you some other day."...
The staff responded with a smile one by one.
“Ding Dong.”
Suddenly, a message rang on her phone.
Tang Nana sent her a video with the message: [Return the gift.]
Vivian immediately stopped in confusion.
A bad feeling arose in my heart.
She instinctively clicked play on silent.
The background of the video was a dressing room, and the camera was obviously shot secretly. After a few seconds, when it became blurry, she saw a video of a man and a woman having sex in the dressing room, and the scene was disgusting.
What horrified her even more was that the heroine in the video was her.
I immediately locked the screen in panic and looked around carefully, fearing that someone would discover this video.
She quickened her pace and got into the car.
The moment he carefully locked the car door, he angrily called Don Nana: [Don Nana! Are you disgusting? How dare you secretly take photos!]
Tang Nana's calm and composed voice came from the microphone: [I advise you to speak to me in a nice tone.]
Vivian was furious, but she also controlled her emotions: [You secretly filmed this to destroy me?!]
Tang Nana laughed: [Why would I destroy you?]
Weiwei was stunned and asked suspiciously: [Then why are you secretly filming me?!]
Tang Nana: [Of course, I want to exchange something with you.]
Weiweian immediately became alert: [What is it first?!]
Tang Nana's laughter was soft but piercing: [Come to XX Hotel to find me.]
-
It’s five o’clock in the afternoon and it’s almost time to get off work.
Mu Yuancai arrived at the laboratory late.
It’s not that she doesn’t want to come, it’s that Huo Min insists on keeping her.
He only let her go after making sure she wasn't feeling unwell from being drunk.
Even he himself was busy with work, answering calls, replying to messages, and holding a video conference.
Finally, Mu Yuan said firmly, "I'm really fine! I haven't been to the lab for many days. I need to go back to see my research target."
She was very persistent.
Huo Min finally agreed, but he insisted on sending her off.
Mu Yuan couldn't persuade him, so she compromised: Huo Min could give her a ride, but only to the intersection.
Huo Min readily agreed.
Mu Yuan had just stepped into the laboratory.
I was immediately surrounded by eager colleagues.
At that moment, Mu Yuan was so panicked that his pupils were shaking.
Did the deputy dean tell everyone? !
"Hey! Mr. Mu, why don't you stay at home and rest because of your gastroenteritis instead of coming to work?"
"Are you okay? I think you drank cold beer and ate hot barbecue last night, and the alternating heat and cold made your stomach upset, which is why you have gastroenteritis."
"You're a doctor? You even treated our Mu Gong on the spot. How's it going, Mu Gong? Did you go to the doctor? What did the doctor diagnose?"
Mu Yuan said slowly: "Gastroenteritis...?"
Everyone: "Yes, the deputy director said you have gastroenteritis, so you're taking a day off. I've watered your research targets and recorded them for you today and sent them to your email."
Mu Yuan was gasping for breath.
Fortunately, she was scared to death.
As for the excuse of gastroenteritis, it was most likely given by Huo Min.
She thanked everyone for their concern and help.
When he walked to his workstation and put on gloves, his eyes swept over his wrists where the red marks had faded.
Suddenly, she thought of Huo Min carefully applying hot compress to her, but ended up getting his own hand burned and turned red, and a warm feeling welled up in her heart.
His performance last night...
He is actually a gentleman.
If it were her.
You may not be able to bear it.
But the bite mark on his neck...she had tried so hard to cover it up with foundation...
You shouldn't be able to tell, right?
She thought without any confidence.
Mu Yuan pursed her lips, trying to control the corners of her lips that kept turning up for no reason, put on her gloves skillfully, and forced herself to get into work mode.
After all, she didn't come back to see these plants during the entire National Day holiday.
It is inevitable that one or two plants are dying due to lack of water.
Mu Yuan could only quickly adopt emergency rescue measures.
This set of measures has been implemented.
It's getting dark.
The last colleague to leave turned around and saw Mu Yuan still concentrating on his research. He smiled and sighed, "Don't work too hard, Engineer Mu. You're still sick. Go home early. I'm leaving first."
Mu Yuan looked up at the sound and smiled: "I'll be off work after I'm done, be careful on the road."
"Okay, I'm leaving."
In a few minutes.
Mu Yuan heard footsteps coming from behind.
Without even turning his head, he asked, "Why are you back? Did you miss something?"
"It's me." The familiar low-pitched voice made Mu Yuan stop his movements suddenly.
He immediately turned around in surprise.
He met Huo Min's deep black eyes.
Mu Yuan's heart was pounding. She quickly walked around him and went to the door to observe everything. She looked worried. "Why did you come here?! Did anyone see you?"
Huo Min raised his eyebrows slightly, and said helplessly in his magnetic voice: "Don't worry, no one saw me."
Mu Yuan breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that.
But I didn’t dare stay here any longer.
He quickly took off his gloves and put all the experimental tools back in their original places.
The movements were quick and familiar.
Seeing her eager reaction, Huo Min explained calmly, "I sent you a message, but you didn't reply, so I came here."
Mu Yuan frowned slightly and picked up the cell phone that she had forgotten aside.
The screen lit up.
Sure enough, I saw the message reminder.
But she was so focused on the experiment and her phone was on silent mode that she didn't notice it at all.
He met Huo Min's silent yet slightly aggrieved look that said, "Look, you didn't even reply to me."
Mu Yuan felt guilty and said in a low voice, "I was doing an experiment and didn't see it."
It’s not like I didn’t reply on purpose.
What's the matter with him feeling so aggrieved?
Huo Min nodded calmly, "The group's technology company recently released a smart electronic watch. Tomorrow I'll have Han Zhu give you one. Once you wear it, you can receive messages and calls even without your phone."
Mu Yuan: "...I just didn't see your message while I was doing an experiment. This hasn't happened many times. Are you being a little petty?"
Huo Min raised an eyebrow: "It's better for you to be petty than not replying to me. I'll be worried for the whole afternoon."
Mu Yuan choked.
Well, she was in the wrong in this matter.
No words.
But still: "Don't give me a digital watch, I don't like wearing things on my wrist."
Just kidding, I put this on.
I can’t find any reason not to answer his calls anymore.
Besides, what if he sends me a message or calls me while I am doing the experiment?
There are colleagues all around here, it would be bad if they saw us.
Huo Min stared at her deeply: "Remember to reply next time."
Mu Yuan was convinced by him and said reluctantly: "I understand."
Even out of the lab.
Mu Yuan didn't even dare to walk side by side with him.
Let him go out first.
Then she went out again after two minutes.
Back seat.
Huo Min leaned against the back of the chair, raised his chin slightly, and looked at Mu Yuan with a leisurely look in his narrow black eyes as she tiptoed out of the building door and got into the car stealthily.
As soon as Han Zhu saw Mu Yuan get in the car, he hurriedly called out, "Good evening, Madam."
Mu Yuan looked at Han Zhu who was in the driver's seat and gave him an awkward smile, saying, "Hello, Han Zhu, you're here too?"
She thought Huo Min came alone.
Assistant Han smiled and took the initiative to report: "I was supposed to take Mr. Huo to a dinner party, but he canceled it at the last minute and wanted to come to see you instead, so I took him here."
Mu Yuan immediately looked at Huo Min in surprise.
What could happen to her in the lab?
He was worrying too much...
I think so.
But even when he was sitting, it was hard to hide his tall and straight figure, noble temperament, and the lines of his face were outlined by the dim light and shadow to make him look even more sharp and handsome.
Mu Yuan's heart was filled with waves.
The corners of my mouth couldn't help but lift slightly.
