"Zhang Hongmei, we received another large order today."
"Hehe, that's great! This month's sales performance is just too good!"
"Of course! Hongmei, you don't know, the computers we assembled, after installing the games you designed, cost an extra four thousand yuan per machine!" Miao Xinyue excitedly grabbed Zhang Hongmei's arm and exclaimed.
"That's great. Alright, you guys should go wash up and rest too. Don't let work affect your health."
After coaxing the three away, Zhang Hongmei then coaxed Wang Xinyi to go and rest. Only then did she go upstairs with Zhao Tiancheng. Zeng Zhongkang had been watching the movements in the living room and, knowing that Zhang Hongmei had gone to the study, knocked on Cheng Guangxu's door. The three of them then went upstairs together.
Zhang Hongmei spoke first, "Don't worry, this hasn't happened yet, there's no need to scare yourselves."
There's a saying that "there's always a way out," and "things will work themselves out." We'll see how things go. But the four of us definitely have to hold back our true abilities.
"I'm also considering what Wyattroy said about forming his own research group. I'd like to collaborate with the McCann and Roy families, and the four of us can just be regular members."
"What do you guys think? We should keep our talents hidden at school, but we can't really stop studying and doing research. So I personally think it's still necessary to form a research group."
Of course, none of them had any objections. Zhang Hongmei was right; they shouldn't scare themselves unnecessarily. Also, studying and researching were essential.
"Hongmei, so you're planning to turn down your professor's invitation?"
"Well, my excuse is easy to come up with: I don't have enough time. I explained that to the professor today."
Also, I went to the lab today, and their skill level isn't as high as ours. So there's no need to take the risk.
"Okay, we understand. We'll do whatever you say."
"Okay, let's leave it at that. Don't put pressure on yourselves, just treat it normally. Also, Uncle Zhao, you need to reassure Aunt Wang. She's in a special situation right now, and you might worry too much."
Zhao Tiancheng nodded. "Don't worry, I'll talk to her. I think what you just said to her was very effective."
"Well, it's good that it works. You should go back and keep Aunt Wang company, otherwise she might overthink it."
Zhao Tiancheng left with a smile. Now only the four of them remained in the study, and it was then that Zhang Hongmei's expression turned serious.
"It was my oversight; I should have realized the saying 'the nail that sticks out gets hammered down.' I was arrogant."
All three shook their heads. How could it be her problem? They were all older than her, and none of them had thought of this.
"Okay, I'll try contacting my supervisor in a while. Maybe our worries are unnecessary."
What could the three of them say? They hadn't paid attention, and there was nothing they could do but follow orders.
The three left, heavy with their own thoughts. They knew they couldn't show it to others. They exchanged a glance, then each went back to their room.
Zhang Hongmei entered the space and first read Zhang Shouyi's letter. He really was getting better and better at coaxing people. She would drive out in the next day or two to buy two projectors. Of course, one would be for Zhang Shouyi, and the other could be kept in the open.
Instead of replying to him immediately, I took a shower, drank some water, and felt much calmer than before. Only then did I lie on the bed and write to him.
Write down your worries in a letter and help him through it.
Zhang Shouyi was just about to rest when he received a letter from his wife. He was initially happy to read it, but after finishing it, his face became very serious.
The daughter-in-law was so worried that she had considered and thought of some solutions before asking them to leave. But none of them were as straightforward as this.
He had to find a way to act according to the situation. Worried that Zhang Hongmei was anxious, he immediately wrote her a letter to reassure her.
"Honey, don't worry, we'll find a way. Leave everything to your husband. If all else fails, I'll come pick you up. How could I let my wife suffer outside?"
After reading Zhang Shouyi's letter, Zhang Hongmei smiled. What kind of method was this? Actually, it made sense; no one dared to detain him. That would then become a matter between the two countries.
With Zhang Shouyi's assurance, he felt much more at ease. He then wrote to Zhang Shouyi to tell him about his and Cheng Guangxu's plan to conceal their talents, as well as their idea of ​​collaborating with the McCann and Roy families to establish a research group.
This time, Zhang Shouyi replied even faster. "Wife, I only know about them, I don't really understand them, so you decide for yourself. Just remember, I'm here for you."
Zhang Hongmei was touched by those words; she realized she had people backing her up. But perhaps she shouldn't be overly cautious about everything?
"Brother Zhang, I miss you, I miss you so much. I understand, I will do what I think is right."
Although it was only a few dozen words, I read it several times. Even though my wife didn't write any romantic words, just those two simple words, "I miss you," made me happy.
"Wife, I miss you too. What should I do? You won't be back for at least another two years."
"By the way, Brother Zhang. I might not be able to go back for three years. How do I apply to skip a grade?"
"Maybe there will be another opportunity in the future. It's just a matter of one more year. I've waited for so many years, one more year won't make a difference."
"Alright, I know, I'm going to rest now. You should go to sleep early too, or I'll be disgusted if I see you've aged a lot when I get back."
Zhang Shouyi laughed after reading it. What a stubborn girl.
Zhang Hongmei let go of all her negative emotions before lying down to sleep.
The next day, it was the same as usual: practicing Tai Chi, eating, and going to school.
After the first get out of class ended, Zhang Hongmei approached the professor and said, "I'm very sorry, I have to break my promise. The main reason is that I don't want to break my word to the students. Also, I looked around the lab yesterday, and I don't understand anything about it. I'll wait until I've learned more and have the opportunity to join the research group later!"
"It's a pity, but you're right. You haven't been exposed to this kind of knowledge yet, but you can in the future. You're always welcome to join us."
Zhang Hongmei bowed to him and said, "Thank you for your appreciation, Professor."
Wyatt didn't come. He told Shen Yunfang this morning that there were guests at their house, and she figured he would definitely arrive by mealtime.
And she was right. At six o'clock in the evening, Wyattroy arrived on time. Today, they had prepared hot pot with lamb, which he exclaimed was delicious.
"I said, what haven't you eaten? Is it really necessary to be like this?"
"How could it not be? It's really delicious. Zhang Hongmei, you're so stingy. We're coming to your house for dinner and you're making excuses."
"Forget it, I can't be bothered with you. I have something good to tell you later."
"Hehe, really, Zhang Hongmei is a true friend. Even if she doesn't give me food, she'll still be happy with good things."
