Chapter 44 I can’t ask her not to leave
"Xiao Qian really doesn't love you?" Jiang Meng turned his head and looked at the handsome young face in front of him.
Li Zhinan inherited his father's handsomeness and has been praised since he was a child. Jiang Meng thought that with his good looks and excellent business acumen, it was impossible for his son not to be liked by Cheng Qian.
But in fact, no matter how good-looking a face is, it cannot resist the cold and introverted personality given by God.
"It's really useless." Jiang Meng sighed heavily.
Li Zhinan: "..."
Jiang Meng looked at him seriously: "You think of a way, Xiao Qian is a good woman, worthy of your cherishment."
"Mom, stop joking. You want me to beg a woman not to leave? I can't do it." Li Zhinan felt that his mother was simply forcing him to do something. With his current status and ability, there was no way he would give up his dignity for a woman.
Jiang Meng said in a calm voice: "Do you think I'm kidding you? As a husband, you have the obligation to love your wife. As a father, you should fulfill your responsibilities for the growth of your children. You are now acting so high and mighty and indifferent. This is irresponsible."
Li Zhinan was scolded early in the morning, and his handsome face turned red and gradually became ugly.
"Mom, I will have a good talk with her." Li Zhinan didn't want to listen to his mother's nagging, so he promised in a low voice.
"I don't believe it." No one knows a child better than his mother. Jiang Meng knew he was just being perfunctory.
Li Zhinan stopped talking, his eyes showing indifference.
Jiang Meng sighed.
Li Zhinan saw his mother off from the building, his brows furrowed and his eyes narrowed.
Could it be that Cheng Qian asked her mother to act as a lobbyist?
On the one hand, she coldly rejected him, and on the other hand, she asked her mother to force him. This woman must be mentally ill.
Time flies and it is already the Lantern Festival. During this time, Cheng Qian has been helping her son to open his brain and cultivate his thinking and concentration.
The little guy went from being ignorant at the beginning to being able to quietly read picture books, listen to ancient poems, and even try to solve a level 2 Rubik's Cube over and over again.
Cheng Qian was very pleased to see her son so smart and studious.
On the Lantern Festival, the old house called her and asked her to come over for dinner.
Cheng Qian has not yet collected any evidence of Li Zhinan's infidelity, and she does not want the elders of the Li family to see that their relationship has broken down.
Whenever she is free, she will come to family activities.
Cheng Qian had just arrived at the old house and greeted everyone when her cell phone suddenly rang.
It was Ji Nan who called.
"Uncle Ji." Cheng Qian answered the phone.
"Xiao Qian, do you have time now?" Ji Nan's voice sounded a little anxious.
"Yes, what's wrong?" Cheng Qian was also nervous.
"There is something important that I want you to participate in." Ji Nan said.
Cheng Qian glanced at her son playing in the living room and nodded: "Okay, I'll see you there."
"Come directly to the laboratory." Ji Nan said and hung up the phone.
Cheng Qian returned to the living room and told Jiang Meng that she was going to work. Jiang Meng looked towards the kitchen: "Lunch is about to start. Is it really that urgent?"
"Yes, Mom, I'll ask you to take care of Xiaoye." After Cheng Qian said that, she squatted down and greeted her son. The little guy looked reluctant to leave.
Cheng Qian kissed his little forehead and didn't know how to comfort the child for a moment.
Just at this moment, a tall iron-gray figure walked in from outside the door.
Li Zhinan came over.
When Cheng Qian saw him, her eyes relaxed. With him around, her son probably wouldn't bother her anymore.
Li Zhinan walked over, bent down and hugged his son.
"Please take care of the child. I'm going out for a while." Cheng Qian said to him calmly, then picked up her bag and walked out.
Li Zhinan just came back and she was about to leave. It was such a coincidence.
The man watched her car disappear outside the courtyard gate with complicated eyes.
Cheng Qian rushed to the laboratory, and Ji Nan suddenly pushed a confidentiality agreement in front of her: "Xiao Qian, Uncle Ji believes in your ability. This matter is very urgent and important."
Cheng Qian picked up the agreement, read it quickly, and was stunned.
This agreement involves a very important person.
Ji Nan sighed softly: "The Vice President developed this emergency condition when he returned from visiting the frontline troops. He has been treated in the hospital for a week, but the results are not good. I am worried that this is a sudden and serious illness. Our mission is to find a cure as soon as possible."
Cheng Qian remembered that her parents were once ordered to join the national scientific research emergency team and were sent to treat the plague after the flood. They were gone for more than half a year. At that time, she was young and did not understand the feelings of family and country. She always cried secretly and wanted to call her parents.
Unexpectedly, she would encounter it too.
"Xiao Qian, here's another contract. Take a closer look." Ji Nan placed another contract in front of her. "The situation is urgent right now. The government is willing to provide three years of research funding, with an annual investment of no less than 2 billion. If our laboratory can obtain this funding, we will be able to have closer cooperation with the government in the future."
Cheng Qian certainly knew the importance of the relationship, but she also took into consideration that her child was very young. If she had to go for three months to do research in a closed environment, she would be away from her son for such a long time, and she wondered if the child would miss her.
"Xiao Qian, you have more experience in traditional Chinese medicine research than anyone else here. This time we decided to form a control group of Western medicine and traditional Chinese medicine and study the parameters together, which will give us a greater chance." Ji Nan has high hopes for Cheng Qian.
Cheng Qian took a deep breath and said, "Okay, I'll join. I need to go back and explain some things."
Ji Nan's expression became excited: "Okay, we'll set off on time at 5 pm."
Cheng Qian asked, "Besides our institute, will there be other institutes going together?"
Ji Nan's face darkened: "I heard that Cheng's Biology also received a notice."
Cheng Qian's eyes flickered. It seemed that Cheng Yan would also join this research.
In this case, Cheng Qian breathed a sigh of relief. Li Zhinan would never let her son call her mom.
Time was running out, so Cheng Qian drove back to the old house. At this moment, lunch at the old house had just ended.
Seeing Cheng Qian come back so quickly, Jiang Meng asked her, "Xiao Qian, have you eaten?"
Cheng Qian shook her head: "No."
Li Zhinan, who was sitting on the sofa playing with his son, looked up at her.
Auntie brought the hot dishes to Cheng Qian. While eating, Cheng Qian said to Jiang Meng, "Mom, I'm going to participate in a three-month closed research. Xiao Ye, I want my aunt to take care of me."
Jiang Meng was startled: "Is it so sudden?"
Cheng Qian looked at her son reluctantly and nodded: "Yes, this is a very urgent task."
Jiang Meng called Li Zhinan over and said, "Zhinan, Xiaoqian has to participate in a research project for work reasons. Please take good care of Xiaoye for the next three months."
Li Zhinan's eyes darkened and his tone became unhappy, and he was about to retort.
Suddenly, his cell phone rang. His expression became serious. After handing Xiao Ye to Jiang Meng, he walked outside the yard to answer the call.
After answering the phone, Li Zhinan came back.
He brought his son back and said to Cheng Qian, "Okay, I will take good care of him for the next three months. You can go about your business."
After saying that, Li Zhinan took his son out.
Jiang Meng and Cheng Qian were both a little surprised. Li Zhinan was obviously unhappy just now, so why did he agree after answering the phone?
Jiang Meng comforted Cheng Qian: "Just go back to work without worry, Zhinan has experience in taking care of children."
"Okay!" Cheng Qian also called her aunt, and Ye Zhu was naturally willing to come and take care of the child.
After explaining all this, Cheng Qian drove back to the laboratory.
When He Xue saw Cheng Qian, a trace of annoyance appeared on her face: "Why does she want to go too?"
