"Protect me? Okay, go home and ask your family first, ask them if they agree with your decision, then come and talk to me about protecting you." Li Ying's expression was serious, and she spoke very earnestly.
Hua Chenyue hesitated for a moment, then clenched his fist.
"What, you don't dare? Hua Chenyue, you're not independent yet, and you still rely on your family for living expenses. How can you protect me? Besides, Ye Jingchi and I aren't divorced yet."
Hua Chenyue was taken aback: "If you're not divorced, why did the Ye family kick you out?"
“This is my private matter, and I don’t need to tell you too much. But remember, I don’t like someone who can’t even support themselves financially and still talks big.”
After saying that, he walked straight past Hua Chenyue.
“Li Ying, I… I can do it! I can be independent, I will definitely become an independent person.”
Li Ying did not pause at all.
Back in the research lab, Wu Hua blocked him at the door.
"Li Ying, do you think this is a vegetable market? You come here every day, wander around for a bit, and then leave. What do you take this place for?"
What Wu Hua disapproved of was Li Ying's attitude and her special treatment. Just because she was recommended by Academician Lu, she could do whatever she wanted.
"Senior Sister Wu, I already spoke with Academician Lu about coming an hour late, and he agreed."
"Of course he agrees, since you're his junior sister. But Li Ying, we researchers need to have the right mindset, otherwise we won't do anything well. Our hospital has rules that Group A has to compete with Group B. If we can't produce decent research results by the end of the year, we'll be eliminated, do you understand?"
At that time, these graduate students might just be assigned to other places, but what about Academician Lu?
If the research results are not outstanding, they may become a laughing stock.
Li Ying is just too selfish!
"What are you doing?" Lu Qingzhu walked over and asked with a stern face.
Wu Hua said angrily, "Academician Lu, no one objected to your recommendation for someone to join our research lab, but she comes an hour late every day. What is she doing?"
"Senior, I will come to the department on time from now on." Li Ying didn't want to make things difficult for Lu Qingzhu, and Wu Hua was right.
Since you're doing scientific research, attitude is definitely the most important thing. This kind of half-hearted approach is indeed infuriating.
"Then you should examine Young Master Jing's legs..."
"It's okay, I can go after I get off work tonight."
Li Ying no longer wanted to use her normal research time.
Wu Hua snorted, but Lu Qingzhu disagreed: "That's too hard! I'm in charge of the research lab, you don't need to listen to what others say."
Wu Hua was so angry that his face turned ashen, and he turned away to go to work.
Li Ying looked at Lu Qingzhu helplessly: "Junior brother, it's really not good for you to be so biased."
Lu Qingzhu pulled Li Ying into the department and said to everyone who was working, "Everyone, please stop what you're doing. Li Ying is my junior colleague, and I know I might be a little biased towards her, and you're all upset about that. But I ask you, does anyone here know how to go to the Jing family and treat that young master Jing's leg?"
Everyone was stunned by those words.
Jing Shao?
Is that the young master Jing who lost a leg during a mission and once publicly recruited doctors to treat his leg?
He has a terrible temper; all the doctors who went to him were turned away, and no one could get close to Young Master Jing.
No matter how skilled a doctor is, it's all for nothing if the patient won't let you see them.
"Li Ying went to treat Young Master Jing's leg?" A senior student asked with admiration. "Young Master Jing has a terrible temper. Even my grandfather, a traditional Chinese medicine doctor, was turned away when he went there. I never expected that Young Master Jing would agree to let you treat his leg?"
Li Ying smiled modestly: "This is probably just fate between doctors and patients. It's not always the case that someone's illness will be cured by the same person!"
"I understand now. This is why I agreed to let Li Ying arrive an hour late. I, Lu Qingzhu, never engage in favoritism or cheating, and I would never violate the rules and regulations of the research lab. If anyone is dissatisfied, then let them compete with Li Ying!" Lu Qingzhu finished speaking loudly, glanced at everyone, and said, "No objections, then get back to work!"
Wu Hua was angry, but she had to admit that there was no one in the entire capital who could get into the Jing family, not even the most famous doctor.
Li Ying can do it, and that's the difference!
At noon, Li Ying deliberately called out to Wu Hua.
"Senior Sister Wu, let's have dinner together."
Li Ying is never afraid of people who offer advice to her face, and she hates those who play tricks behind her back the most.
Wu Hua was a bit harsh, but he wasn't a bad person at heart. He was wholeheartedly devoted to the research lab, which Li Ying admired from the bottom of her heart, so she couldn't hurt Wu Hua's feelings.
Wu Hua was surprised. He glanced at Li Ying, neither refusing nor agreeing, and turned to leave.
Li Ying followed Wu Hua out of the research lab and went to the cafeteria for lunch.
Tian Li had already prepared the food. Upon seeing Wu Hua, he was very excited: "Senior Sister Wu!"
Wu Hua nodded slightly and went to get the food.
Tian Li put down his meal and said to Li Ying, "Why is Senior Sister Wu eating in the cafeteria today?"
"Doesn't she usually eat in the cafeteria?"
"No, she's a medical fanatic. She got into medical school with the highest score in the country and later applied to join the research lab herself. However, she initially joined Academician Cao's research lab, but her research results were stolen. In a fit of anger, she turned around and joined her master's research lab."
I see.
Li Ying now held Wu Hua in even greater respect.
Wu Hua got the food, stood there for a moment, and then walked over to Li Ying and Tian Li, sitting down beside them.
Tian Lichong grinned at Wu Hua and picked up his chicken leg, giving it to her: "Senior sister, you eat it."
