Zhao Yesi was stunned by the question.
That’s right, what does it have to do with him if Lu Huangzhi wants seven wives?
Tao Qiaosheng was still chattering on his phone. He felt like someone who had gone to great lengths to find some inappropriate content for children, even paying for a membership to speed up the download process, and finally downloaded it, happily preparing to enjoy the movie, only to be blinded by the words "Huluwa".
That’s it? He took off his pants and that’s it???
Zhao Yexi didn't respond for a long time, so Tao Qiaosheng asked, "Are you still there?"
"Yes." After a calm analysis, Zhao Yesi had found the reason for his anger. "Lu Huangzhi's thinking is wrong. It's obvious that he has serious problems with his values. He opposes monogamy and supports polygamy. To put it bluntly, he's pursuing feudalism. It's people like this that I hate the most."
That debate was an entertainment competition before the official competition. He could no longer remember what the official topic was, but he remembered every argument Lu Huangzhi made in the entertainment competition clearly.
"You have no idea how outrageous his words are!" Zhao Yesi grew angrier the more he thought about it, and punched the grapefruit. "What about 'Wei Xiaobao isn't fickle, his heart is just broken into seven pieces'? 'Yang Guo waited for sixteen years, only to be accompanied by his left hand. You think his love is perfect, but are you willing to live his life?'..."
"He's right." Tao Qiaosheng didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "If I were to choose, I would definitely choose Wei Xiaobao. Although Yang Guo and Xiaolongnu had a happy ending, the process was still a bit tragic."
Zhao Yesi sneered: "Okay, then I wish you all have seven wives in the future and enjoy the happiness of having seven wives. I'm going to sleep."
"Hey, what are you so angry about... Xizi? Zhao Yexi?"
Zhao Yexi hung up the phone decisively, and fell down to continue sleeping, but he was not sleepy at all.
It's all Lu Huangzhi's fault, but I can't even argue with him. This is the most infuriating thing.
Zhao Yesi rolled back and forth on the bed for a few times and decided not to sleep. He carried the grapefruit to the kitchen, found a kitchen knife, and with a flick of his hand, the grapefruit was split in half.
Then Zhao Yesi ate it to his heart's content.
Monday was the day Zhao Yexi officially reported to the institute. He dressed maturely, a black windbreaker over a white shirt, and combed his hair into a grown-up look.
When the door opened, the door opposite also opened. Lu Huangzhi seemed to be still asleep, looking lazy and casual. He greeted Zhao Yesi: "Good morning."
Zhao Yesi nodded coldly, closed the door and left.
Lu Huangzhi: “…” Are you still angry about doing laundry?
The apartment was full of research institute staff, and the elevator was packed during office hours. Zhao Yesi was squeezed into a corner, watching the others cast surprised and amazed glances at Lu Huangzhi. Perhaps he'd eaten too many grapefruits and his stomach was a little sour.
Just wait and see. No matter how handsome Lu Huangzhi is, he is still a man who wants seven wives.
After getting out of the elevator, Lu Huangzhi called Zhao Yesi. Zhao Yesi pretended not to hear and quickened his pace, but was soon caught up by Lu Huangzhi easily.
"It runs pretty fast."
"If you don't want your eyes, you can donate them to people in need. I wasn't running, I was just taking a leisurely stroll."
Lu Huangzhi asked, "I asked you to wash some clothes for me in the washing machine, and you feel so wronged?"
Zhao Yesi originally wanted to turn on the aloof mode, but when Lu Huangzhi asked him this, he couldn't hold it in anymore: "Did you tell Tao Qiaosheng about our debate competition last year?"
It turned out to be because of this matter. Lu Huangzhi wanted to laugh, "No."
Zhao Yexi didn't believe it: "Then how did he know?"
"He asked, but I didn't say anything."
Zhao Yesi's expression eased slightly: "That's strange."
Lu Huangzhi was a little surprised. The little tough guy believed it so easily? He was much easier to fool than he had imagined.
"But why do you care so much about an entertainment competition?" Lu Huangzhi asked curiously, "I remember the topic of that competition was..."
Zhao Yesi interrupted him: "Because I can't afford to lose - I hold grudges."
Lu Huangzhi nodded: "I see."
Zhao Yexi and Lu Huangzhi first went to the Human Resources Department to complete their onboarding procedures, then reported to their department. Their internship was in the Social Survey Department. The HR clerk said the department had only been established a few days ago, and aside from the two of them, Professors Guan Chengji and Liang Qinghuan, and seven or eight other researchers, most of them had been assigned elsewhere.
The Social Investigation Department had two separate offices, one for Guan Chengji and one for Liang Qinghuan. The others worked outside the office, so the boss could see them from the office, but they couldn't see the boss.
When they arrived, the office was empty. The HR lady said, "Professor Guan and Professor Liang should be in a high-level meeting. Wait here, I'm going to go get busy."
Guan Chengji and Liang Qinghuan were in a meeting together. Zhao Yexi almost choked up thinking about that scene. He picked an empty workstation to put his things and said, "I hope they don't fight."
Lu Huangzhi sat down in the empty seat opposite Zhao Yesi, "I hope your father can intervene."
Zhao Yesi was stunned: "My dad?"
"Isn't your father the director?" Lu Huangzhi said, "Isn't the director a high-ranking official?"
"Damn, I totally forgot about that!"
Lu Huangzhi said with a smile: "You haven't seen him yet, have you? He should live in the same apartment with us."
"It's hard to say. I suspect he's already settled down in the office."
"What? Your dad is Director Zhao?!"
"Yes, my dad is..." Zhao Yesi was suddenly stunned. He seemed to hear an unfamiliar voice? But he and Lu Huangzhi were the only two people in the office.
"Did you hear that?" Zhao Yesi asked Lu Huangzhi.
Lu Huangzhi said, "I heard it."
"Who?" Zhao Yesi looked around blankly, "Who's talking?"
"It's me!" A man popped up from behind Lu Huangzhi with a friendly smile on his face. "My last name is Bu Chunzhai. On behalf of the colleagues who are absent, I welcome the new colleagues!" After Bu Chunzhai finished speaking, he applauded enthusiastically.
Zhao Yesi subconsciously clapped along. Lu Huangzhi asked Bu Chunzhai, "Excuse me, when were you here?"
"I've been here since you came in. You probably didn't notice." Bu Chunzhai waved his hand. "It's okay. I'm used to it."
Zhao Yesi looked at Lu Huangzhi, and seeing that the other party seemed a little confused, he felt relieved.
Bu Chunzhai was of average build and average looks, with neither good qualities nor bad features. Perhaps because his presence was so subtle, he and Lu Huangzhi initially failed to notice he was in the office.
After introducing themselves to each other, Bu Chunzhai said, "I only knew that the new colleague was a student of Professor Guan and Professor Liang, but I didn't expect that he was Director Zhao's son."
"I am the only one, not him." Zhao Yexi didn't expect his identity to be exposed so quickly. He also wanted to keep a low profile, but reality didn't allow it.
"It's good that you are here. The other colleagues are not here during this period, and I have to face Professor Guan and Professor Liang at the same time. I am almost..." Bu Chunzhai's face suddenly changed halfway through his words, and he sat back at his workstation in a whoosh. He was so fast that Zhao Yesi seemed to see his afterimage.
Lu Huangzhi:?
Zhao Yesi was about to ask when he suddenly felt a chill on his back. "It's Master... My Master is here!"
Lu Huangzhi: “…”
The next second, the office's sensor door opened automatically, and Guan Chengji and Liang Qinghuan walked in one after another.
Liang Qinghuan pursed his lips tightly, and it looked like his anger was about to explode; Guan Chengji followed behind him, his face the same as usual, with no emotion visible.
Zhao Yesi and Lu Huangzhi said at the same time: "Professor."
Liang Qinghuan saw his student and forced a smile, "Huang Zhi is here."
Guan Chengji nodded to Zhao Yesi and whispered to Liang Qinghuan, "Let's talk in my office."
"What else do you want to talk about?" Liang Qinghuan said coldly, "You have your opinions, and I have mine. There's no need for us to impose our views on others. So there's nothing we can talk about."
Guan Chengji fell silent.
Zhao Yesi looked down at his shoes, not daring to breathe. He secretly glanced at Lu Huangzhi, who was watching the two professors quarreling openly, without any scruples.
After a while, Guan Chengji said, "The students are all here. I don't want to argue with you."
Liang Qinghuan was stunned for a moment, then seemed to calm down.
"It's okay for us," Lu Huangzhi said, "the professors are busy first."
Facing the students, Liang Qinghuan said as gently as possible: "Nothing to do. Is Xiaobu here?"
Bu Chunzhai popped up again: "I'm here, Professor Liang."
"Take Huang Zhi and Zhao Yexi to the conference room and explain the current situation to them."
As soon as they entered the conference room, Zhao Yexi and Bu Chunzhai breathed a sigh of relief. Lu Huangzhi couldn't understand: "What are you afraid of?"
Zhao Yesi was even more confused: "What's with that expression of yours, like you're watching a show?"
"It's normal for them to quarrel. I'm used to it."
Zhao Yesi said seriously: "That's because you are abnormal."
Bu Chunzhai, who seemed to be non-existent and was sandwiched between the two, cleared his throat and said, "Quiet, quiet, the meeting has started."
Zhao Yesi made a gesture of invitation.
Bu Chunzhai asked, "Do you think that having a second gender is a person's privacy?"
Zhao Yexi asked, "What do you mean?"
Lu Huangzhi said slowly, "So Professor Liang thinks that the second gender is a personal privacy and should not be made public, while Professor Guan holds the opposite view. He believes that the second gender is just like ordinary men and women, so there is no problem with making it public?"
Zhao Yexi: “???”
Bu Chunzhai was stunned: "How did you know?!"
"Guess."
Bu Chunzhai stood up, took two steps back, and clasped his fists towards Lu Huangzhi: "Boss, please accept my greeting."
Zhao Yexi: "...Fuck."
