Ye Mohan initially wanted to refuse when he heard Lin Yi's words, but for some reason, Jian Yixue's words came to mind, so he nodded in agreement.
Lin Yi could hardly believe his eyes. The CEO had actually agreed?
He had given the same reminder before, but the president always remained unmoved. What was wrong with him today?
However, he didn't press the issue too hard; agreeing was a good thing, at least it provided an extra layer of protection.
Lin Yi quickly composed himself, nodded, and went out to arrange the work.
——
Jian Yixue was woken up by her alarm clock in the early morning.
She desperately wanted to stay in bed, so she turned off the alarm and lay under the covers. But then she remembered she had to go to the lab to make medicine today, so she gritted her teeth and got up.
She quickly tidied up and went downstairs for breakfast. She paid special attention to the table and noticed that the two maids from before were no longer there. They had probably been dismissed by the housekeeper, and now only Aunt Cheng was left in the kitchen.
He glanced at the prepared dishes, said nothing, picked out what he liked to eat, ate it, and left the restaurant.
As usual, I went to the old man's room to take his pulse so that I could keep track of his condition and instructed the housekeeper, Mr. Jin, to pay attention to the old man's diet.
She told the old man she was going out, but did not mention that she was going to make medicine for him.
When she arrived at the door, Ye Mohan's personal driver was already waiting for her.
Yesterday, on her way back, she specifically told him to pick her up at nine o'clock this morning to go to the lab.
Seeing Jian Yixue carrying large and small bags, Li Ming quickly got out of the car and took them from her, saying, "Madam, let me help you."
Jian Yixue nodded and handed it over without any hesitation; she was more than happy to have someone willing to help.
After Li Ming put his things away, he drove off.
Not long after, the car stopped at the same spot as yesterday.
Seeing so many things, Li Ming asked, "Madam, shall I help you carry all these things upstairs?"
Jian Yixue thought for a moment. There were indeed a lot of things, and it would be a bit troublesome for her to carry them all by herself, so she replied, "Mm."
After saying that, he got out of the car and waited for Li Ming to get his things before they went to the laboratory together.
As she passed the reception desk, the receptionist saw that it was Jian Yixue and did not stop her, but smiled and watched her walk towards the elevator.
When Jian Yixue came yesterday, Zhou Bo made a special call to ask her to let him pass, not to mention that he personally saw her off when she came down.
If she still doesn't know what to do at this point, then all these years of her life have been for nothing.
When she arrived at the laboratory entrance, Zhou Yuxuan was already waiting for her there.
Zhou Yuxuan got up and walked over when he saw Jian Yixue.
Jian Yixue stopped and said to Li Ming behind her, "Give him the things and go back first."
"Yes, madam. Should I wait for you?"
Zhou Yuxuan heard these words as soon as he walked up to Jian Yixue. He realized that he was just a porter in his sister-in-law's eyes. He felt bitter but dared not say anything because she was his sister-in-law!
Zhou Yuxuan resignedly accepted the gift boxes of various sizes. Looking at all these, he asked in confusion, "Sister-in-law, are these all medicinal herbs you just bought?"
"Hmm, is there a problem?" Jian Yixue asked Zhou Yuxuan.
"No problem, sister-in-law is very generous."
Zhou Yuxuan quickly shook his head. He dared not say that he was just feeling the pinch, as these gift boxes looked quite expensive.
Seeing this, Jian Yixue turned to Li Ming and said, "You go back first. I don't know how late I'll be busy here. I'll take a taxi back later."
Upon hearing this, Li Ming said with concern, "Madam, let me wait for you. It's not safe for you to go back alone too late, and the master will worry about you."
The thought of Ye Mohan dealing with difficult matters abroad while also worrying about her safety made her reluctant to distract him, fearing that something might happen to him and she would regret it later.
She was about to agree.
Zhou Yuxuan, who was standing to the side, looked at Li Ming and said, "I will definitely send your husband home unharmed, so don't worry about it."
Jian Yixue thought about it and agreed. After all, this was the first time she had made medicine in six years, and she didn't know how long it would take.
It wouldn't be good to leave Li Ming waiting downstairs: "Okay, let's do as he says. You go back and get busy."
Seeing Jian Yixue's response, Li Ming didn't say anything more.
Mr. Zhou was also a good friend of Mr. Zhou. Being escorted by Mr. Zhou was similar to being escorted by Mr. Zhou, so he nodded and turned to leave.
Jian Yixue followed Zhou Yuxuan into the laboratory. Zhou Yuxuan found a table, put his things down, and walked over to Jian Yixue. "Is there anything I can help you with?"
Jian Yixue shook her head. "If you have nothing else to do, just take out that pile of herbs and put them on the table."
Zhou Yuxuan was annoyed. He thought Jian Yixue would at least ask him how to use the equipment in the lab. He himself had spent a long time figuring it out when he first got it.
Seeing that he hadn't moved for a while, Jian Yixue turned her head and asked, "What's wrong?"
Undeterred, Zhou Yuxuan asked, "Are you sure you don't need my help? Like, how do you use these devices?"
Jian Yixue pointed to some pharmaceutical equipment not far away, then turned to him and asked, "Are you talking about these?"
Zhou Yuxuan nodded heavily.
Jian Yixue didn't even glance at him, and said indifferently, "I know how to do all of that. Why don't you have the newly released XY-5th generation gas chromatograph?"
Zhou Yuxuan was shocked and rushed to Jian Yixue that afternoon: "How did you know that a fifth generation has been released?"
He was recently invited to attend the new product launch event of the manufacturer Mercedes, but it has not yet been released to the public.
After learning about the instrument's performance, he immediately placed an order. It has only recently been put into production, and it is estimated that it will take some time before it reaches him.
If you weren't in the industry, you wouldn't know at all. How did your sister-in-law find out?
Jian Yixue paused, realizing that the saying was true—too much talk leads to mistakes.
She couldn't very well tell her that in her past life, she hadn't been able to use other brands' products properly, so she specially developed this one herself.
Finally, realizing that many people like her couldn't find the right instrument, she sent the design drawings to Mercedes, the largest chromatograph manufacturer in China at the time, in order to benefit society, and thus became their contracted engineer.
“I attended their new product launch.”
Without batting an eye, Jian Yixue told a white lie, simply because she didn't want her identity to be exposed too much for the time being.
"Really? I don't see you."
Zhou Yuxuan tried hard to recall, but he couldn't find Jian Yixue's image in his mind. Logically speaking, it was impossible not to remember such a beautiful woman.
"I watched for a while and then left. I didn't stay long." She then turned around and gave him a disdainful look.
"So that's how it is. No wonder I couldn't remember."
Looking at the look Jian Yixue gave him, Zhou Yuxuan realized he seemed to be being rejected.
Seeing that Jian Yixue knew so much about the instruments, Zhou Yuxuan knew that she must recognize them all, so he walked over to a pile of gift boxes and resignedly began to unpack them.
