Chapter 438
Jiang's parents had very stubborn tempers and refused to eat any of the snacks and fruits that were brought to them.
Except for a few sips of tea.
Jin Chaochao breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the caller ID from Jiang Li and answered the call quickly.
"Jiang Li, your parents are here to see you. If you are free, come back and visit."
Jiang Li frowned when he heard this, but also breathed a sigh of relief.
It turned out that it was not Jin Chaochao’s business. He didn’t answer the phone for fear of delaying her important matter.
He explained: "My laboratory has just taken over a group of viruses, which are skin diseases that have just been transmitted from Africa. The number of infected people is not large at present, but the infection is very strong. We have to seal off the laboratory here, and we can only go home until we develop a prescription drug."
"This..." Jin Chaochao frowned, "Can't you come back tonight? Don't you need to bring some clothes and daily necessities?"
"No need, we have everything here. The experiment has already begun, and the meeting just ended, let them go back first!" It is not ruled out that Jiang Li has the intention to avoid it.
Jin Chaochao frowned, "Can't you spare any time at all?"
"Yes!" Jiang Li hung up the phone.
He looked at the lights in the laboratory that were as bright as day, and his eyes became increasingly indifferent.
He rejected his mother last time, and now that he has his own career, he will not go with them.
Now, let alone going with them, we can’t even meet them once.
Jin Chaozhao said anxiously, "Don't hang up, just chat with your parents for a while!"
She held the phone and saw that the call had been hung up long ago. She looked at Jiang's parents with some embarrassment.
"Why don't you stay here? Jiang Li has a new mission in the laboratory, so he won't be back in the short term. As you can see, I don't want to intensify your family conflicts. But this matter cannot be resolved in one or two steps. I hope you two can take a long-term view."
Father Jiang looked unhappy.
Jiang's mother also had a grim look on her face and gritted her teeth.
The couple stood up.
"In that case, let's go back first, but we won't give up. We will come again after the business trip is over."
Jin Chaochao immediately asked someone to see the guest off.
She had never seen such a stubborn person in her life.
…
1286 Laboratory.
Jiang Li and his team members are doing experiments.
Even at night, no one could relax and rest.
At this time, the assistant rushed into the laboratory and said to Jiang Li: "Two professors have been sent over to help. They are here. Jiang Gong, would you like to go and take a look?"
Jiang Li stood up from the microscope and instructed, "Continue to observe, remember to record the video, and I will take notes when I come back later."
"Okay!" The assistant took over Jiang Li's tasks.
Jiang Li came out of the laboratory and walked towards the dormitory area.
Two staff members, along with two people in plain clothes, walked to the dormitory entrance and said, "This is a temporary dormitory. Professor Jiang, Professor Xu, we are sorry to trouble you. The laboratory is in front, and you must be exhausted after rushing all the way here. Have a good rest today, and it won't be too late to resume work tomorrow."
Jiang Li walked into the living area and saw a familiar yet unfamiliar face as soon as he looked up.
He stopped at the door, his feet felt like they were filled with lead and it was difficult for him to take another step forward.
At this time, the logistics staff found him and immediately greeted him with a smile, "Engineer Jiang, come here quickly. This is Professor Jiang and Professor Xu, they are the partners in this experiment."
Jiang Li walked forward and his eyes fell on Xu Weilan.
I saw her last year, and she hasn't changed at all, even the few strands of hair on her forehead are still the same.
As for his father, he couldn't remember how many years he hadn't seen him.
He was so unfamiliar that he didn't even recognize him.
"Son?" Xu Weilan was the first to react.
She reached out to pull Jiang Li, but he pushed her away reflexively.
Both staff members were stunned.
One of them was still unaware and immediately explained with a smile, "Professor Xu, you may not know this. Our Jiang Gong is the person in charge of this project. Although he is young, he has participated in 6 major research projects in the past year and made outstanding contributions. The school has given him an exception and skipped a grade. He is now a graduate student. If he were not so young, he would have been evaluated for professorship."
Xu Weilan just felt like she was dreaming.
She could hardly believe that the young man in front of her, who was full of vigor, noble air, handsome features and elegant manners, was her son.
This project is very important. The fact that he can be the general manager shows that the higher-ups value him more than they do.
Father Jiang hadn't reacted yet, he didn't even recognize his own son.
"Chief Engineer Jiang, we are here to cooperate with the project. Just tell us if you can help us. We will do our best to cooperate." Jiang's father spoke in a businesslike voice.
Xu Weilan has long lost his composure.
She stepped forward again and took Jiang Li's arm, "Are you my son?"
Father Jiang's eyes widened in disbelief and he looked at his wife, "What are you talking about?"
"Jiang Li, this is our son." Xu Weilan grabbed Jiang Li's arm. "I'm absolutely not mistaken, but you are indeed different now. You have grown taller and gained weight, and you look more handsome. The clothes you are wearing are really nice, and this watch suits you very well. I hope our son has not suffered this year."
It was like a bolt from the blue for Jiang's father.
The young man in front of him is his son.
In his memory, every time he had a video call with his parents, the boy on the other side of the video was skinny, looked gloomy, not good at speaking, and had a timid look with a hint of viciousness in his eyes.
The clean, open, bright-eyed, sunny and strong boy in front of him could not be matched with the boy in his memory.
His appearance doesn't even look like him.
Jiang Li didn't want to face it, and even subconsciously wanted to escape.
But he thought of the message Jin Chaochao sent him.
[Some things must always be faced.] No matter how you solve it, there must be a solution. There is no use in escaping. 】
[Also, I discovered that your mother doesn’t have much time left. 】
[You have been with me for a while and learned a lot. What's more, you are not a child anymore, and I hope you can handle some things by yourself. 】
Jiang Li took a deep breath and straightened his back.
His eyes fell on Xu Weilan indifferently, without a trace of emotion, even a little indifferent, "Is my life good or not? Can't you see it with your eyes?"
Xu Weilan choked.
She is a little panicked now, and even at a loss when facing such a son.
Jiang Li did not call them, but said in a businesslike manner: "The virus has been isolated, and we are recording the data. You just arrived, so take a night's rest first. If you need anything, just tell the administrator. See you in the conference room at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning."
After he finished speaking, he turned and left.
Father Jiang was stunned the whole time.
It was not until Jiang Li left that he looked at Xu Weilan, "Is this really my son?"
"Yes!" Xu Weilan felt mixed emotions.
Jin Chaochao had said before that Jiang Li was living a good life and had become very outstanding, but she didn't believe it.
Now that she had seen it with her own eyes, she realized that her son was living a much better life.
He has completely changed.
No wonder Jin Chaochao was very angry when she raised the question, but did not say anything sarcastic to her.
