Chapter 339: Why do you feel disgusted?

In the hot summer, heat waves float in the air, as if they are the hot breath exhaled by the earth when it is burning.

Su Mei pedaled her bike all the way to the research institute. By the time she arrived, she was so hot that she looked like she had just been pulled out of the water, with sweat all over her head.

Today Huo Jianguo asked her to ride the bike, and he went out on foot very early.

After parking her bicycle and locking it, Su Mei walked into the research institute.

The elevator in the office building had been repaired and the notice on it had been torn off. When Su Mei went in, she happened to see Gao Yu standing inside with breakfast.

The heat overcame the fear, and Su Mei saw that there was someone inside, so she squeezed in.

Gao Yu, who was already standing inside, looked Su Mei up and down arrogantly before saying to her:

"Good morning, Dean Xiao Su."

She emphasized the small word, as if to remind Su Mei that she had little experience.

"Hello to you too, Lao Gao!" Su Mei responded with a wry smile.

Gao Yu: “…”

Lu Xu had already arrived at the office. He opened the window to ventilate the office. The large ceiling fan above his head was turned to the highest gear, spinning rapidly and making a clanging noise.

Since her student days, Su Mei has always thought that this kind of ceiling fan is terrible.

When the teacher was arranging seats, she was most worried about being arranged under this ceiling fan.

Because every time the fan spun wildly, Su Mei felt that the fan would fall down and cut off her head.

Despite the extreme heat, Su Mei still stayed away from the ceiling fan. She fanned herself with a book and stood by the window to enjoy the cool breeze.

Gao Yu first put down her bag, then opened her breakfast bag and took out two pancakes from the bag.

He handed one of them to Lu Xu in a flattering manner: "Brother Xu, this is what my mother bought from the cafeteria in their factory. The chef there once said that people from Shandong can make delicious cakes.

I got one especially for you, please try it, you can’t buy anything with this flavor anywhere else.”

The pancake was indeed very fragrant, and the electric fan blew the crispy aroma into Su Mei's nose.

Su Mei bought a big white steamed bun and a cup of soy milk in the morning. Now when she smelled this, she couldn't help swallowing her saliva.

Because Huo Jianguo always secretly wanted to make her fat, she could only control her diet in the morning.

There is nothing wrong with self-control, but once there is temptation, it is instinctive to be greedy.

Unexpectedly, Lu Xu had no interest in this delicious smelling thing. He shook his head indifferently: "I've eaten it, thank you!"

"No, I haven't eaten it." Gao Yu pouted unhappily. "I called to ask about it this morning, and my aunt said that you left the house very early. You have a bad stomach, how could you not eat breakfast!"

"Whether my stomach is healthy or not is my business. Don't worry about it." Faced with Gao Yu's gentle concern, Lu Xu didn't care too much. Instead, he looked a little irritated.

Su Meirao was watching the excitement with interest.

It turns out this is a drama of a girl chasing a boy.

So the Lu and Gao families arranged Gao Yu and Lu Xu together, perhaps with the intention of letting these two get to know each other more and bringing them together?

Just looking at Lu Xu's attitude, Su Mei felt it would be difficult to drink at their wedding.

After being rejected many times, Gao Yu was probably annoyed. She turned around angrily and stuffed the pancake that was intended for Lu Xu into Su Mei's hand.

Su Mei, who had been swallowing silently just now, was at a loss whether to laugh or cry when she saw the extra steamed buns in her hands.

"Eat, eat! I'm giving it to you. I've seen it a long time ago. You were almost fed to death." After Gao Yu finished speaking, she sat down on the sofa behind her and started to eat the steamed bun in her hand in big mouthfuls.

Su Mei: “········”

What kind of insanity is this? She said she wanted to eat this pancake? She had no intention of eating it in the first place.

Now that things have come to that, even if Su Mei was reincarnated as a starving ghost, she would never eat Gao Yu's food.

She put the pancake back in front of Gao Yu and told her in a very serious tone: "Lao Gao, before I came here, I checked the institute's rules and regulations. Eating in any office of the institute will be fined.

Go to the finance department after get off work to pay the fine, ten dollars each time."

"No, it's just breakfast." Gao Yu's eyes widened in surprise, as if Su Mei had said something extraordinary. "My monthly salary is only 45 yuan, what are you doing?"

"If you don't hand it in voluntarily, I will write a letter of denunciation and you will be fined even more!" Su Mei kindly reminded.

The pancake smelled quite fragrant at first, but as soon as you took a bite, the smell of pickled cabbage filled the room. Su Mei felt nauseous and decided to go downstairs to the laboratory.

Before I even left the house, Lou Shanchuan came looking for me.

It was said that a new office had been vacated for Su Mei, but the interior was rather simple and it would take a few days for it to be renovated before she could move in.

Su Mei thought that she had no plans to stay here for a long time, so it didn't really matter whether the house was renovated or not.

If she planned to stay here, she would definitely decorate her office in a poetic way.

However, if it is only for short-term use, then there is no need for that, so Su Mei said: "Professor Lou, just tell me where the office is and I will move in. There is no need to spend money on decoration.

We don’t use the office very often. We usually stay in the laboratory when doing research. It’s enough for this office to have people sitting in it.”

"Okay, it's on the second floor. Here's the key. Go and take a look. If you think it can be used, you can move in." Lou Shanchuan said as he handed the key to Su Mei. He couldn't help but think in his heart that Lao Qin had a good vision. This girl had reached her current position at such a young age, but she was not arrogant at all. She was also honest and dedicated to her work. She was indeed worthy of cultivation.

After getting the key, Su Mei handed it directly to Gao Yu and said, "No need to look at it, Gao Yu, you will be responsible for cleaning my office today, and then move the scientific research-related books on the bookshelf in this office down for me.

If there are other things like chairs downstairs, we can move them from here.”

"You want me to move things?" Gao Yu pointed at his nose, looking incredulous.

"Didn't we say during the meeting yesterday that you would be my personal assistant? Shouldn't you do it?" Su Mei looked at Gao Yu as a matter of course, and then said, "After the office is cleaned up, it will probably be noon. I have to go to the laboratory in the morning, and I may not have time to queue up if I'm busy, so you are responsible for getting lunch and delivering it to me and Lu Xu."

"Eating is not allowed in the office." Gao Yu said angrily.

Hearing Gao Yu's words, Su Mei smiled and said, "It is indeed not allowed in the office, but in the advanced laboratory, considering the needs of researchers, independent rest rooms have been set up where you can eat!

Oh, I forgot, although you have been here for seven years, Lao Gao, you have not yet been given the privilege of entering the advanced laboratory. It’s my fault that I didn’t explain it clearly to you!

I thought you would have this common sense after being here for seven years."

Although many people, like Gao Yu, entered the research institute through recommendations.

But she is the only one in the institute who has not even obtained the qualification to enter an intermediate laboratory after seven years.

Now that Su Mei mentioned it so clearly, her face turned as red as a monkey's butt.

"Monkey: Nonsense, my butt isn't that red!"

Seeing that Gao Yu had nothing to say, Su Mei took a pen and manuscript paper and called Lou Shanchuan and Lu Xu out.

The three of them left the office and heard Gao Yu's crazy scream at the elevator door.

After going downstairs, Lou Shanchuan called Su Mei and said, "Come with me, I have something to tell you!"

"Okay." Su Mei nodded, then turned around and looked at Lu Xu: "You go first and wait for me at the door of the laboratory."

After saying that, Su Mei followed Lou Shanchuan to his office.

Lou Shanchuan's office is very simple.

Concrete floor, white walls, a few tables, and books piled high on the tables.

There were several boxes on the ground, all filled with books.

There was a white teacup on the table with a photo of a great man printed on the outside. There was hot tea in the cup with thick tea stains inside.

His office is as clean and tidy as he is.

After entering the office and sitting down, Lou Shanchuan sat opposite Su Mei. He said to Su Mei, "Gao Yu has a very bad temper. She is narrow-minded and difficult to deal with. You should not fight with her.

I'm just afraid that she will be so angry that she will do something to harm you behind your back."

"She looks like she has no brains. What does the Gao family mean by putting her next to me?" Su Mei didn't quite understand this arrangement.

This made Lou Shanchuan laugh immediately: "It doesn't mean anything. The Gao family put Gao Yu next to Lu Xu, not you. The two families wanted to get married, so they put the two people together."

"So that's how it is." Su Mei understood.

Lou Shanchuan nodded: "So you don't have to worry too much about Gao Yu, just be careful of her and don't let her do anything small.

The focus is still Lu Xu. The Lu family must have ulterior motives for placing their heir next to you.

Do you plan to do an experiment or have any new ideas? Would it be convenient to bring him with you? He is really capable. I am afraid that no matter what you want to do, he can remember the general idea just by looking at it.

What if he steals your experimental data..."

"It would be better if they stole it!" Su Mei smiled helplessly, tapping the table lightly with her fingertips, "I'm just afraid that they won't use such a crude method."

"Just keep it in mind. Even though everything seems harmonious now, you should know that this is the calm before the storm." Lou Shanchuan said very seriously.

Su Mei knew this in her heart. "I will be careful."

"One more thing." Lou Shanchuan handed Su Mei a small booklet with the national emblem printed on it. "This is a special certificate with the national security logo. You must carry it with you at all times. It can protect you at critical moments."

A small red booklet was handed to Su Mei, and Su Mei saw the words written on the surface of the booklet: Special Post Personal Safety Protection Certificate.

Su Mei remembered that when Huo Jianguo asked Zeng Shengqiang to investigate Dong Tian, ​​Zeng Shengqiang said that Dong Tian was a person under key protection by the National Security Bureau and he did not have the authority to investigate Dong Tian.

Presumably, this certificate is the one that allows the director of the institute to have special protection rights.

However, this certificate did not seem to be so omnipotent. Huo Jianguo mobilized the power of the military at that time and still turned Dong Tian upside down without anyone noticing.

"I'll keep it safe." Su Mei said as she put the ID in her pocket.

Seeing Su Mei's expression, Lou Shanchuan felt that Su Mei obviously did not take this certificate seriously. He reminded her, "Don't underestimate this thing. Do you remember the elevator incident yesterday?

If you can find out who attacked you, then you have this certificate, and as long as there is sufficient evidence, the person who attacked you will be arrested directly for treason."

"Oh." Well, it still worked a little.

But it was different from what Su Mei thought. She thought the so-called special protection meant that someone was specially assigned to protect her safety in secret.

It turned out that she was just given a book to represent her identity.

After getting the book, Su Mei left Lou Shanchuan's office.

She walked all the way to the front of the laboratory building. Lu Xu was waiting for her under the shade of a tree at the door, leaning against the tree trunk.

"Hey, why didn't you go in?" She then realized that the door had a password, so she tentatively said, "I'll write the password to you later!"

"According to regulations, only the researcher himself can have the password to the advanced laboratory. As an assistant, I can only enter when you are here. You don't need to tell me." Lu Xu responded softly.

I offered to tell him the password, but he refused to give it to me? Did he really not want to give it to me, or was he hiding it from me?

The door was opened and Su Mei walked in.

The experiments she had done before focused on chemistry.

Now that she has more comprehensive and advanced equipment, Su Mei plans to focus on medicine, which is her real battlefield.

After entering the laboratory, Su Mei took out a test tube from her jacket pocket.

This is the sample I got from Huo Jianguo.

Last night, Huo Jianguo saw the test tube she brought back and asked her if she was a pervert! ········

It's not that Su Mei is a pervert, it's mainly because she really needs a tube of this stuff to extract prostaglandins from it.

Prostaglandins are physiologically active unsaturated fatty acids that are widely distributed in various tissues of the human body.

It was first extracted from men's bodies.

In modern times, prostaglandins can be prepared by biosynthesis or total synthesis.

Prostaglandins play a key role in regulating female reproductive function and childbirth, platelet aggregation, and cardiovascular system balance.

Sumei is unaware of the modern synthetic process, so she can only extract it using the most ancient method.

In fact, Su Mei had the idea of ​​extraction before entering the research institute.

However, the equipment in ordinary laboratories was too poor, so she had to give up the idea.

Now that the conditions are ripe, Su Mei finally decided to let Huo Jianguo devote himself to the development of medicine.

The extraction method was not complicated. After putting the test tube away, Su Mei took out a piece of paper and began to write down the extraction tools and materials she would probably need.

Lu Xu, who was following Su Mei, pointed at the test tube and asked, "What is this?"

As he spoke, Lu Xuhai picked up the test tube and examined it carefully.

He didn't see what it was.

"Don't touch it..." Su Mei saw Lu Xu pick up the test tube, and quickly snatched it back and put it back.

Although it was for science, Su Mei didn't think there was anything embarrassing about it, but she was still afraid that Lu Xu would be ashamed to know the truth.

So she switched to English instead.

"What?" Lu Xu didn't hear clearly, so he asked again very seriously.

Su Mei was helpless and could only change her words: "Male seminal vesicle secretions."

Only then did Su Mei feel annoyed. It was indeed inconvenient to have many strangers around her when doing research.

"What..." Lu Xu felt that he seemed to understand, but also seemed not to understand.

His hand suddenly became a hot potato. Lu Xu had just touched the tube of stuff, and at that moment he almost wanted to run out and rinse it.

But his feet seemed to be frozen in place as if they had been acupunctured, and it was obvious that the answer had frightened him greatly.

A crack appeared on his ascetic and gentle face at this moment. Lu Xu felt that the moment he understood the answer, his whole body shattered.

After a long while, he asked Su Mei in a cold voice:

"Did Dean Su do this on purpose, just to dislike me and make me give up and stop staying by your side?"

Hearing this, Su Mei thought that if he really couldn't stay, it would be best for him to just turn around and leave, so that she wouldn't have to worry about anything she did.

But I swear to God, she didn't have this intention at the beginning.

She just thought of the effects of prostaglandins, extracted whatever she could think of, and wanted it to be released to the public as soon as possible to benefit mankind.

And she didn't know that Lu Xu would follow her, pick up the test tube and ask her what it was.

Without that intention, Su Mei would not admit it. She raised her head and glanced at Lu Xu, then asked calmly:

"Science is fearless, truth is shameless, and exploration has no boundaries. Why do you feel disgusted?"
