Shen Jun stayed in Liu Mingchuan's chemistry lab for more than half an hour. Liu Mingchuan kept talking about chemistry experiments until his throat was dry, and he felt embarrassed.
"Am I not particularly boring?"
Shen Jun smiled and said, "Actually, you're quite interesting. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have known that chemistry experiments are so interesting. That's why people say that different professions are like different worlds."
Liu Mingchuan suspected that Shen Jun was flattering him. Fu Yaning belittled him to the point of being worthless, but Shen Jun said he was interesting. It all seemed like she was just saying it to comfort him. Liu Mingchuan felt a little embarrassed.
"You don't need to comfort me. I spend most of my time in the lab, so I'm not as interesting as other men. But people need to return to life. Women usually don't care about a man's success in his career, but rather whether he is a funny and humorous person. After all, women also need men to make them happy."
Shen Jun can't be said to be wrong. In fact, Shen Jun has been single for many years. Including her past life and this life, it's been forty or fifty years.
Having lived two lives, Shen Jun had long since become indifferent to matters of the heart. She was well aware of men's hypocrisy and had no good impression of men with complicated thoughts. On the contrary, she felt a good liking for simple-minded people like Liu Mingchuan.
Shen Jun smiled. "You're a chemist, this is your career. Whether you're a man or a woman, it's already very difficult to succeed in your career. People's energy is limited. Men who are successful in their careers are often very tired when they get home, and they don't have the energy to take care of their children or consider their wives' feelings. Men who are not successful in their careers can provide emotional value, but they are a little worse off financially. It's hard to have both. In fact, most of life is in a state of wanting but not getting, and it's never perfect."
Liu Mingchuan agreed with Shen Jun's words, "That's right, it's normal for life to be imperfect. People always want things but can't get them. When you're focused on your career, you neglect your family; when you're focused on money, you ignore your children. A perfect life only exists in fantasy."
"So the old saying 'contentment brings happiness' is very interesting. Don't compare yourself to others, and don't be too hard on yourself. In my opinion, your achievements are already remarkable. You are excellent enough and don't need to belittle yourself."
Liu Mingchuan felt very comfortable talking to Shen Jun; there was no burden or pressure.
Liu Mingchuan's world is relatively simple, and Shen Jun is also a simple person; they are actually quite compatible.
Liu Mingchuan coughed. "Would you like some fruit? I'll go buy a watermelon. There's a watermelon stall at the alley entrance."
"No need, I'm controlling my blood sugar and don't dare to eat too much watermelon."
"Controlling blood sugar?"
"Yes, eating too much sugar can easily lead to skin glycation, right? Plus, I'm not young anymore, so eating less sugar is good for me."
Liu Mingchuan thought for a moment, "If there were a pill that could prevent the body from absorbing sugar, it would probably also help the skin, right? I can research it later. If it really works, you won't need to control your sugar intake anymore."
Shen Jun smiled and thought that this man was quite romantic, but his way of being romantic was different from that of ordinary people.
Shen Jun is beautiful and tall, and she has a great sense of style when she dresses.
Liu Mingchuan appreciates women with elegance and poise.
Although Shen Jun doesn't have a particularly imposing appearance, Liu Mingchuan inexplicably felt like he wanted to be her subordinate in her presence. He felt that she was a spiritual queen, with a stable core and emotions, and knew what she wanted.
Liu Mingchuan really seemed like a younger brother in front of her.
"What are you laughing at? Do you think I'm boring because I talk about my job all the time?" Liu Mingchuan asked bluntly.
Shen Jun shook her head. "You're wrong. I actually find it interesting. If you really develop an anti-sugar pill, remember to tell me so I can try it too. That way, I won't have to control my sugar intake, avoid certain foods, and not be able to eat anything every day."
Shen Jun has great skin. Liu Mingchuan examined her skin and took out a small bottle from the cabinet.
"This is something I just tinkered with. Try it out, it should suit you perfectly."
Shen Jun looked at the bottle in her hand in surprise. Anything Liu Mingchuan developed must be good. Overjoyed, she opened it and smelled it. "It smells like rose?"
"Yes, it's made with imported rose extract and has added new ingredients. It has anti-wrinkle and whitening effects. Since you have dry skin, this product is specially formulated for dry skin and should be very suitable for you. Remember to give me feedback after you've used it." Liu Mingchuan smiled.
He stopped acting difficult in front of Shen Jun.
Instead, it resembles a large wolfhound.
In fact, the main customers of big-name skincare products are mostly middle-aged women, and middle-aged women generally have dry skin, with many having dry skin. Therefore, big-name skincare products need to develop anti-wrinkle and moisturizing skincare products specifically for dry skin.
Liu Mingchuan's skincare product happened to be a perfect match for Shen Jun's skin type.
Speaking of Shen Jun, her skin is very good, fair and delicate, without any flaws, just like her. She is clean and simple, like a chrysanthemum, but she has a unique aura.
Shen Jun nodded. "I'll definitely give you feedback after I use it."
The two chatted for a few more minutes before Liu Mingchuan drove Shen Jun home. However, he didn't buy a car. Chu Yu had given the lab researchers a car, but Liu Mingchuan refused it and exchanged it for cash instead.
Liu Mingchuan hadn't realized it before, but now that he needs a car for dates, he's discovered how inconvenient it is not to have one.
Shen Jun lives near the factory. The factory has expanded now, and in addition to the office building, there is also a row of dormitory buildings. Shen Jun lives in the dormitory building and occasionally goes to Chu Yu's place to stay with Chu Yu.
Upon seeing the environment of Shen Jun's factory, Liu Mingchuan asked, "You're really impressive to be able to manage such a large factory."
"It's nothing. My small factory's turnover is far less than Mandarin's, and it can't compare to how many skincare products you can make."
