As soon as the word "Mom" came out, Shi Man felt her scalp tingling.
But she didn't overreact, just showed a look of surprise on her face.
The others were also stunned. Huang Anren took the lead and stepped forward, holding his daughter: "Mingzhu, she is not her mother. I'm sorry, Dr. Shi, my daughter must like you too much."
"It's okay, the child is very cute." Shi Man smiled, lowered her head and looked at the little girl, then reached out and touched the little girl's face. She felt a deadly coldness on her face, and her smile deepened a little.
Huang Mingzhu also kept smiling, her pupils dark. She turned her head stiffly to look at Huang Anren, her voice a little halting and stuttering: "She, my mother, I want her, to be, my, mother..."
When these words were uttered, Secretary Li and the others thought it was just the talk of a child. Although they were surprised, they found it more funny.
But Huang Anren's next reaction was beyond everyone's expectations.
"Is Dr. Shi married?"
Zhang Qiming stood up: "Huang Anren, why are you asking this?"
"Mr. Zhang, don't react so strongly." Huang Anren said with a smile, "It's rare for Mingzhu to like someone so much. You know her situation. After her mother left, she became withdrawn and has been unwilling to speak and communicate with the outside world."
"She wants Dr. Shi to be her mother, so naturally I want to fulfill her wish."
"Dr. Shi, this may be a bit abrupt and presumptuous, but I still hope you can seriously consider it. If you are still single, I hope you can consider my pursuit. If you become my spouse, you will enjoy resources and status that many people do not have in the Gufang base."
Huang Anren said this with absolute confidence and pride in his eyes: "Of course, it doesn't matter if you have a spouse. I can arrange a good job for him and allocate high resources. Even if he doesn't work in the core area, he can still enjoy these."
The smile on Shi Man's face remained unchanged.
But Huang Anren's words had already been transmitted to other people in the Pure Land through the communication earrings.
At the Pure Land Combat Support Center, Qin Weishan and the others had already turned black in the face, and were gritting their teeth. If fists could be sent through the air, they would have decided to twist Huang Anren's head off.
Song Yan, Qin Xiao, Zhou Feifei and others were all in the conference call, so Huang Anren's "boss words" were naturally heard clearly by them.
The members of the core team were secretly preparing to fight. If they didn't kill this bastard, they would all change their surname to Huang!
"It's my honor to be liked by your daughter," Shi Man said, lowering her head as if a little embarrassed. "I feel Mr. Huang's sincerity, but it's a bit sudden. Can you give me some time to think about it?"
"Of course." Huang Anren smiled. "Although the world is in chaos, respecting a woman's choice is something a gentleman would do. Dr. Shi is a smart man, and I think you will make the right choice."
Shi Man nodded.
"Academician Zhang, Dr. Shi has her own considerations. I hope you can respect her independent wishes."
Zhang Qiming's face darkened, and he glanced at Shi Man with a look of disapproval. He said sternly, "Marriage is free. I certainly don't have the right or position to interfere with other people's choices. However, the institute's mission is very tight. I hope Dr. Shi won't delay the overall mission before considering personal issues."
"I don't think there's any need to eat this meal. I'm going back to the institute. Dr. Shi, it's up to you to decide whether to stay or leave."
Zhang Qiming turned around and was about to leave. Shi Man showed an uneasy expression and quickly stood up: "Mr. Huang, I'd better go back to the institute first. I will seriously consider this matter."
