Chapter 82
"Xiao Mu, would you like to come and work in my laboratory?"
Zhou Zhishang enthusiastically extended an olive branch.
His medical skills were taught by Mu Hongguo.
Thirty years later, all his old friends had passed away, but he met his old friend's granddaughter again.
Moreover, his life was saved by Mu Qingxuan.
Perhaps, this is the proof that the two of them are destined to be together.
Zhou Zhishang must teach all these skills to Mu Qingxuan.
Only in this way can he fulfill his friendship with Mu Hongguo.
Mu Qingxuan was stunned.
During a break in the seminar, Zhuang Pingchun had already explained to her the real purpose of this seminar.
——It is to select talents for Zhou Zhishang’s laboratory.
Western medicine is dominant today, but Zhou Zhishang's research laboratory has received direct investment and support from the country.
It is no exaggeration to say that it is a paradise for all Chinese medicine practitioners.
At the seminar, all the Chinese medicine practitioners looked at Zhou Zhishang with shining eyes and spoke carefully and cautiously, hoping to leave a good impression in front of Zhou Zhishang.
Mu Qingxuan never thought that such a thing would happen to her.
Sheng Jingyu immediately responded, a look of delight on his lips and eagerness in his eyes.
"Teacher Xiao Mu, to be honest, in addition to being a teacher, I also want to invite you to join our research room."
"Although you are young, you have superb medical skills. People like you are exactly the talents we need most!"
He clasped his hands together and leaned forward slightly, as if he was afraid that Mu Qingxuan would refuse.
Zhou Zhishang nodded gently, and patted the empty seat beside him with his hands covered with age spots: "Although our laboratory is small, we have received the support of the country, and all kinds of treatment are among the best."
He paused and said sincerely: "If you are willing to come, I am willing to teach you everything I have learned in my life."
Sheng Jingyu paced back and forth excitedly, his leather shoes making crisp sounds on the floor.
He added: "And the atmosphere in our lab is really good! We are all seniors and juniors, doing experiments and research together on weekdays, just like a family!"
He suddenly stopped and stared at Mu Qingxuan with burning eyes: "With your talent, after systematic training, you will definitely have a bright future!"
The two were quite sincere.
Mu Qingxuan lowered her eyes and thought for a moment, her eyelashes casting tiny shadows under her eyes.
When she raised her head, her eyes were firm and gentle: "Professor Zhou, Teacher Sheng, I am very grateful for your recognition."
She clenched the corner of her clothes tightly: "But my dream is to use my ability to cure diseases and save lives like my grandfather did. Even if I can only be a barefoot doctor in the countryside and watch patients recover, I think it is worth it."
She pursed her lips and said, "To be honest, my position at Capital University is just a temporary solution. In the future, I want to open a small clinic and actually treat patients and save lives."
"Staying in the lab doing theoretical research is contrary to my ideals, so..."
Mu Qingxuan paused and swallowed the rest of the sentence.
Zhou Zhishang's smile froze on his face, a hint of loss flashed in his eyes, and his old shoulders slumped slightly.
Sheng Jingyu opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but the old man raised his hand to stop him.
"That's all. That's all."
Zhou Zhishang sighed, took out a pen from his pocket, and wrote down the address and phone number on the note paper.
"Young people have their own paths to follow, and I understand as an old man."
When he handed the note to Mu Qingxuan, his fingertips trembled slightly: "I will stay in the capital for a few more days. If you need anything, please feel free to contact me."
Mu Qingxuan took the note with both hands and bowed slightly solemnly: "Thank you, Professor Zhou."
When she turned around, the incense from the lounge mixed with the breeze from the corridor brushed against the corners of her clothes.
Mu Qingxuan was surprised to find that Zhuang Pingchun was still waiting at the door.
"Teacher Zhuang, you haven't left yet?"
It was already dark, and the seminar had long ended.
Zhuang Pingchun had indeed waited for most of the day, and his legs were numb from waiting.
But when she thought about it, Huo Changfeng was still lurking across the hotel.
If she left now and left Mu Qingxuan alone at the seminar, if any accident happened again, Huo Changfeng would probably not be able to help but chop her to pieces.
When Zhuang Pingchun thought of Huo Changfeng's eyes that were as cold as ice, he shuddered uncontrollably.
Instead of that, she might as well wait a little longer at the seminar.
She turned her sore ankle to loosen up her muscles while asking, "It's okay. I brought you here, and I must bring you with me again."
"Professor Zhou asked you to come over for so long. What did you talk about?"
She asked straight to the point.
Mu Qingxuan did not hide anything and said directly: "Professor Zhou invited me to his laboratory."
Zhuang Pingchun was shocked and gasped.
But in an instant, she reacted.
Mu Qingxuan's strength is already impressive and is obvious to all.
What's more, she saved Zhou Zhishang's life on the roadside today. Even if it was to repay him for saving his life, Zhou Zhishang would definitely invite her.
Zhuang Pingchun's eyes lit up: "Then you..."
"I refused." Mu Qingxuan's voice was flat, ruthlessly shattering Zhuang Pingchun's fantasy.
Zhuang Pingchun was stunned and asked in confusion: "Why? There are more prospects there than staying in Capital University."
Mu Qingxuan had no choice but to repeat her ideal again.
After hearing this, Zhuang Pingchun was stunned for a long time and stared at Mu Qingxuan with complicated eyes.
After a while, she sighed and said, "If this is your ideal, then I will definitely support you."
“When are you going to open your own clinic?”
Mu Qingxuan subconsciously touched her belly and said, "At least wait until the baby is born and the situation stabilizes."
Zhuang Pingchun looked in the direction of her movements.
Maybe Mu Qingxuan is too thin. Her belly is only three months pregnant, but it already looks a little bit pregnant.
Zhuang Pingchun nodded and said with understanding, "That's right. The teaching workload is not heavy now, which is just right for your current state."
"Since you have your own ideas, I won't say much." Zhuang Pingchun thought for a moment and couldn't help but remind him, "But even if you don't go to the laboratory, you can still contact Professor Zhou more often."
"He is one of the best in the industry. There is no harm in building a good relationship with him."
"Well, thank you, Mr. Zhuang, I understand."
While the two were talking, they had already walked out of the hotel.
Mu Qingxuan saw the man standing in the night wind at a glance.
Under the dim light of the street lamp, a tall figure stood upright.
Huo Changfeng put his hands in the pockets of his black windbreaker, his body was as tall as a pine tree, his back was straight, his shoulder lines were neat and smooth, and he cast a slender shadow on the ground.
He had an elegant figure, and his coat outlined his slender waist and straight long legs.
Seeing Mu Qingxuan approaching, Huo Changfeng walked over quickly, took off his coat, and put it on Mu Qingxuan's shoulders.
Mu Qingxuan was about to say that she was not cold, but when she looked up, she found that Huo Changfeng did not look happy.
"What's wrong?"
Huo Changfeng stared at Mu Qingxuan solemnly and said, "Something happened to Lu Zetao."
