A pile of things, which Shi Lingheng, with his immense strength, carried as if nothing had happened, became incredibly heavy for Fan Xiaofan, a delicate and frail girl.
Liu Fang and Gu Wenyan complained about Shi Lingheng, but they had no choice but to resign themselves to picking up the things.
Because the two of them always had a serious expression in public, Fan Xiaofan didn't notice the complaints they were making about Shi Lingheng hidden beneath their faces.
In response to the old man's question, Fan Xiaofan scratched his chin and said, "We're fairly familiar with each other."
The group walked into the research institute. The institute's inspection was very strict. Leaving aside the exit, just going in required everyone to be checked again. Moreover, Fan Xiaofan had so many things in his hands, all of which had to be opened and inspected one by one.
Once these things were opened, the group, who were quite well-traveled and had seen all sorts of good things, were suddenly enveloped by the aroma that had been concealed. All that could be heard were the sounds of people swallowing their saliva.
These days, even researchers at the research institute only ate a few more meals of white flour steamed buns than others; their vegetables were still just radishes, cabbage, and potatoes...
Shi Lingheng prepared all sorts of things for Fan Xiaofan that he had specially sourced from various places and then made into convenient, ready-to-eat foods. How could they not be delicious?
Fried peanuts, fried soybeans, and various braised mushrooms and potatoes, etc...
It's roughly equivalent to a modern snack.
Fan Xiaofan became even more determined; she absolutely had to get Shi Lingheng to help her with the ingredient ratios for instant noodles. This talent couldn't be wasted…
However, while the food was tempting, everyone was now more curious about Fan Xiaofan.
After the examination was completed, they couldn't help but grind their teeth; the food was really tempting.
After finally getting inside the research institute, the group still showed no sign of leaving. Fan Xiaofan blinked, pointed to the food, and said, "Shall we eat together?"
Everyone waved their hands. These days, every household values food more than anything else, so how could they possibly accept food from others?
"It's nothing, it's just that we wanted to talk to you..."
They were all a little embarrassed, as if they had previously looked down on him, but now they were eagerly coming to his door. If Fan Xiaofan didn't give them a good look, they would have no choice but to accept it.
They're all practically dead, quite old, and it's embarrassing for them to argue with a child. The key point is that this little girl is really capable.
This only made them seem more bored.
Fan Xiaofan acted as if nothing had happened, warmly inviting them into her research lab to chat. She didn't hold a grudge against their previous attitude; on the contrary, she was quite understanding.
For them, studying rigid and meticulous things is not a child's game, so their attitude towards themselves is not hard to understand.
This isn't a life-or-death feud; it's just a difference in perception based on individual thinking.
"Xiao Fan, we were before..."
"What happened between you guys earlier? Weren't you all busy working? Oh dear, my lab seems a bit small, there's no room to sit, so we'll have to talk standing up..."
Fan Xiaofan covered her face.
Zhang Wenyue and He Zizhao exchanged a glance, a smile unconsciously appearing in their eyes.
Even the old men couldn't help but sigh inwardly, thinking how big-hearted this child was. At their age, they would argue until they were red in the face, debating who was right and who was wrong. If they underestimated themselves, they would put in all their effort to prove themselves.
Fan Xiaofan managed to let bygones be bygones with a smile...
