Fu Bai slept for half an hour in Ye Luan'an's lounge.
After waking up, she went to the bathroom to wash up before returning to Ye Luan'an's office.
Ye Luan'an was sitting in his office chair, looking at a document.
Hearing a sound coming from the lounge, he looked up.
Ye Luan'an smiled slightly at Fu Bai: "You're awake."
Fu Bai walked over and said, "Hmm."
Ye Luan'an handed Fu Bai a document: "This is the profit-sharing contract that the lawyer just brought up. Take a look."
Fu Bai took the contract and began to read it carefully.
The contract states that Fubai is only responsible for research, while Huisheng Biotechnology will be responsible for subsequent patent applications and product operations. Fubai will receive 60% of the net profit.
Every clause in the contract is very detailed, and a 60% commission is very high in the industry.
Ye Luan'an did not cheat Fu Bai; in fact, he gave Fu Bai the best conditions in the industry.
Fu Bai signed his name on the contract decisively.
As he pushed the contract back to Ye Luan'an, Fu Bai reached out to Ye Luan'an.
Ye Luan'an grasped Fu Bai's hand.
Fu Bai smiled in a very formulaic way: "Chairman Ye, it's a pleasure to cooperate with you."
Ye Luan'an let out a low chuckle: "Pleasure doing business with you."
The two appeared very businesslike and professional.
But at the moment the handshake ended, her pale fingers gently, teasingly, hooked Ye Luan'an's palm.
Then he revealed a sly smile.
He tickled Ye Luan'an's palm, sending a tingling sensation through her skin, a gentle itch that spread all the way to the depths of her heart.
Ye Luan'an coughed seriously, then continued working.
Fu Bai did not press his advantage. After saying goodbye to Ye Luan'an, he left Ye Luan'an's office with his contract in hand.
After reaching the door, Fu Bai suddenly stopped.
"Uncle," Fu Bai asked, "can I ask Ye Xi to come and help?"
Ye Luan'an: "As long as he's willing, there's no problem."
Fu Bai: "Understood."
0-0
After leaving Ye Luan'an's office, Fu Bai called Ye Xi to ask if he would be willing to come and help him.
Ye Xi listened to Fu Bai's brief introduction of the project over the phone and became very interested in it.
Just as his mentor's project came to an end, Ye Xi had some free time, so he accepted Fu Bai's invitation and agreed to help out in Fu Bai's lab.
Hearing Ye Xi's reply on the other end of the phone, 748 was slightly stunned.
748 said in a tone of extreme admiration:
[Fu Baibai, how are you so amazing? Every step you take precisely hits Qin Laiyang's vital points.]
Fu Bai had not seen the original plot of the small world. When he heard 748 say this, he guessed that his act of inviting Ye Xi had seriously affected the original plot.
748: [In the original storyline, Qin Laiyang also invited Ye Xi to join his lab to research hair reagents together.]
Everything had been going smoothly until the hair regrowth product was almost successfully developed, at which point a bottleneck was encountered.
Fu Bai guessed the outcome: "Did Ye Xi come up with a way to break through this bottleneck?"
748 nodded: [Yes.]
[It was precisely because of Ye Xi's research capabilities, which greatly helped Qin Laiyang later on, that he was able to secure his position as the principal wife.]
Fu Bai chuckled, his fox-like eyes filled with mockery.
In the original storyline, Ye Xi probably didn't care about being the so-called "official wife." The reason he was with Qin Laiyang was most likely because Qin Laiyang used the technology from other dimensions obtained through the live-streaming strategy system.
In the original storyline, Ye Xi and Qin Laiyang were a prime example of mutual exploitation.
Qin Laiyang could acquire more advanced technology than this small world, but he lacked the ability to monetize it.
Ye Xi was a research fanatic and was very interested in what Qin Laiyang had.
But now...
It doesn't matter anymore.
Fu Bai will give Ye Xi more of what he yearns for and is dedicated to studying.
Qin Laiyang, that stud, should just get as far away as possible.

Ye Xi arrived at Fu Bai's laboratory an hour later.
Huisheng Biotechnology's legal team has prepared a confidentiality agreement.
After carefully reviewing the document, Ye Xi signed his name on the confidentiality agreement.
Thus, a small research team led by Fu Bai and consisting of only Ye Xi was officially formed.
For the next two months, Fu Bai and Ye Xi lived a simple life, shuttling between home, school, and the research lab, devoting themselves wholeheartedly to the research on the hair growth device.
Perhaps it was because he saw Fu Bai's efforts in scientific research, or perhaps it was because Fu Bai hadn't gone out for more than two months, Ye Luan'an saw the real change in Fu Bai, and his attitude towards Fu Bai also changed.
Although the warning line is still in place, it's much more proactive than before.
Picking up and dropping off students for get off work and school are perfectly normal things.
Most of the time, Fu Bai was busy in the lab, so Ye Luan'an became the one to deliver his meals.
He remembered Fu Bai's tastes, and the meals he delivered were always Fu Bai's favorites.
At first, Ye Xi thought Ye Luan'an had come for him, after all, no matter how serious Ye Luan'an was, he was still his adoptive father.
Ye Xi was flattered by this.
Until one day, Fu Bai complained to him that she couldn't get used to the food in the park's cafeteria.
The next day, when Ye Luan'an came again, he brought Fu Bai a meal that Ye Luan'an had personally cooked, while Ye Xi continued to eat in the cafeteria.
Ye Xi usually focuses his mind on scientific research and rarely observes the people or things around him.
However, the entanglement between Fu Bai and Ye Luan'an was so blatant that even the oblivious Ye Xi noticed it.
