Chapter 379 Going Home
In the early morning, when the first rays of sunlight hit the window, Lu Changjie stretched his arms, stood up and prepared to go out to wash.
Qu Dan's voice came from outside.
"Xingchen is back, Changjie should be up, I'll go call him."
Lu Changjie heard the voice and suddenly became alert. He opened the window and quickly went out.
When Fu Xingchen came in, he was gone.
He touched the quilt and it was still warm. Fu Xingchen gritted his teeth and said, "You can hide on the first day, but you can't hide on the fifteenth day. Let me catch you, I'll skin you alive!"
When He Kang saw Fu Xingchen coming out alone, he knew that his precious apprentice had not been caught.
She was already accustomed to the way the children got along with each other, and said with a smile: "Chang Jie has been too busy recently and sleeps less than a few hours a day. I guess he went to the laboratory before dawn."
Qu Dan asked Fu Xingchen to stay for dinner, but Fu Xingchen said he had something else to do and left.
After everyone left, Qu Dan asked, "Look how angry Xingchen is. How did Chang Jie offend her?"
He Kang said, "It's just that. Zhong Ming from the Institute of Astronomy fell in love with Xingchen, but Xingchen didn't like him.
Zhong Ming's father had the ancient book materials that Xingchen wanted, so he told Chang Jie and others that if she was seconded by Zhong Ming, they should find a way to get her back immediately. But now, they forgot about it because they were busy with the project."
Qu Dan served a bowl of porridge and placed it in front of He Kang, "Just explain it clearly."
He Kang picked up the porridge and took a sip, "Xingchen has a hot temper. I guess Chang Jie would start to fight before he could even open his mouth to explain."
"If they start fighting, you hold them back."
He Kang, who was already used to the way they got along, said, "Chang Jie is a very smart guy. When have you ever seen him suffer a loss? Even if a fight really breaks out, Xing Chen will not be his match."
Lu Chang Jie hadn't had breakfast yet. Qu Dan put two eggs, two steamed buns, and some pickles in his lunch box and asked He Kang to take them with him when he left.
...
Seeing Huo Gaofei coming to the laboratory with wet hair, Lu Changjie teased, "Oh, you really love to be clean. You wash your hair so early in the morning."
Huo Gaofei rolled his eyes at him, "You hide away and make fun of me here. Why am I always the one who gets hurt?"
Lu Changjie said, "You are too unvigilant."
Huo Gaofei wailed, "The door has been locked. Who could have thought that she would not sleep in the middle of the night and come to settle accounts with me."
Lu Changjie handed a piece of data to Huo Gaofei, "You organize this data. After you organize it, we will ask Xingchen to help."
They play and make noise, but they still have a sense of propriety. No matter how big the grudge is, they will never interfere with each other's work and will fully cooperate with each other's work.
...
At noon, the four met in the cafeteria. When Fu Xingchen rushed over, Lu Changjie handed him a package with both hands.
Fu Xingchen stopped: "Don't think of using a little snack to get rid of me!"
Lu Changjie said flatteringly: "Open it first and take a look. I guarantee you will like it."
Fu Xingchen opened the wrapping paper doubtfully and saw a tattered book inside. He showed excitement in his eyes and ran away with the book without eating.
An Jiaojiao praised: "Changjie, you still have a way to grasp Xingchen's life point in one go."
Huo Gaofei asked: "That book looks a bit old. Where did you get it?"
Lu Changjie put his index finger to his mouth and smacked: "The secret cannot be leaked."
Huo Gaofei thought that he should also get a few old books to keep by his side to escape Xingchen's clutches.
...
In the afternoon, Fu Xingchen went to the laboratory and assisted the two to improve the data and retest, and the results were remarkable.
After sorting out the project data, he handed it to He Kang, who came back with a smile on his face.
Lu Changjie asked, "Master, did the leader praise us?"
He Kang said, "Of course, we were praised, and this time it's even better news."
Huo Gaofei came over and asked, "Professor He, what's the good news? Am I included in it?"
He Kang didn't keep them waiting, and said, "The superior leader has approved that you can go home to visit your family!"
The two were stunned for a moment, then went over and grabbed He Kang's hand and asked in unison, "Is it true?!"
Seeing the two guys so excited that their eyes were filled with tears, He Kang said, "When have I ever lied to you? Hurry back and pack your luggage, and there will be a car to take you back tomorrow."
"Yeah!!!"
The two held hands like children, spinning around and jumping happily.
They had been in the institute for 9 years and had never been home during this period. How could they not be excited to hear this news?
After being happy, Lu Changjie asked He Kang: "Xingchen helped us a lot in this project. Can she go home?"
He Kang nodded.
The two rushed out of the laboratory and ran towards Fu Xingchen's dormitory.
Soon, cheers came from the dormitory.
...
Beijing City.
Zhou Jianghai informed the Lu family that Lu Changjie could go home today, which made Lu Yongfu and Liang Qiaoli shed tears with excitement.
Liang Qiaoli grabbed Lu Yongfu's hand and said, "Old man, it's been 9 years. What do you think Chang Jie has become?"
Lu Yongfu said, "The child didn't send me any photos, so I don't know."
Shen Jiale smiled and said, "Chang Jie and Chang Jun are twins. They won't look very different."
Liang Qiaoli didn't think so. "Chang Jun eats well and wears warm clothes at home. Chang Jie is a child living outside. His conditions are definitely not as good as at home. If he doesn't get enough nutrition, he will definitely not be as tall as his brother."
She discussed with Lu Yongfu that she must supplement her grandson when she returns.
Lu Changjie came home at night, and his family had been waiting.
Under the lights at the gate, Liang Qiaoli rushed to the tall and handsome boy who had the same face as Lu Changjun and got off the car and hugged him.
"Grandma misses you so much!"
Looking at his family in front of him, the always strong Lu Changjie couldn't help but have tears in his eyes: "I miss grandma too, and everyone in my family."
Seeing that her grandson was not wronged, Liang Qiaoli felt relieved and pulled Lu Changjie into the house.
Lu Changjun went over and patted his brother on the shoulder: "We were all worried that you would be wronged outside alone, but I didn't expect you to be stronger than me."
Looking at his elder brother in a black suit, Lu Changjie said: "Brother, you are becoming more and more like a successful person."
The family couldn't help but ask about Lu Changjie's well-being, and Lu Changjie also patiently answered every question from the family, except for those about the research institute.
Lu Changjie's vacation this time is one month, Liang Qiaoli thinks it's too little: "It's been 9 years, and I finally come back once, but I can only stay at home for one month, which is too little."
Lu Changjie said: "I will have a one-month vacation every year in the future."
Liang Qiaoli immediately smiled: "That's good."
Considering that Lu Changjie just came back, they didn't talk too much and let him rest first.
Because tomorrow, Lu Changyan and Lu Changxiao will also come back, and the whole family will be reunited.
