The words are too modest and too humble.
Zhong Yuxiu frowned. "Don't say that anymore. We are in a new society and a new era. No one exists for anyone else, and no one has to be valuable to anyone else."
Li Yun was stunned for a moment, then responded "Okay".
"What's going on?" Haonan and Tian Shangguo walked out of the bathroom, having changed their clothes; the dining room was silent, and Haonan couldn't help but ask.
Normally, mealtimes are quite lively, but Comrade Zhong is a foodie, and it’s impossible for him to be so quiet when there are delicious dishes.
"Sit down." Zhong Yuxiu suppressed her emotions and tapped the table lightly with her fingertips, her face calm.
Haonan and Tian Shangguo looked at each other, walked to the dining table tacitly and sat down, looking at Li Yun secretly; there were only two people in the dining room, and Comrade Zhong Yuxiu's bad mood must be because of Li Yun.
Yan Rushan came in from outside, "Yuxiu, I'm here."
"It's time to eat." Zhong Yuxiu raised her head and forced a smile, "Come and eat."
Yan Rushan didn't understand what was going on, and he kept observing her expression during the meal. After the meal, he went upstairs to the laboratory with Zhong Yuxiu and asked.
"Yuxiu, are you unhappy?"
"Yeah." Li Yun's expression was flattering, but it could also cause misunderstandings among those who didn't know him. Zhong Yuxiu's dissatisfaction with Li Yun grew day by day. She sighed and glanced across the laboratory. Her eyes suddenly froze, and her brows frowned slightly. "Goudan, who has been to my laboratory?"
Thanks to her good memory, she can remember everything she has seen; not to mention the private area like the experiment, she has a strong sense of territory and can tell which corner has been touched.
"Ding ding." Sensing the presence of an outsider, Goudan walked to the computer desk and stopped, turned on the computer, entered the password, opened a document and typed on the keyboard.
Zhong Yuxiu and Yan Rushan walked over to Goudan and watched the screen together.
——Li Yun has been here.
"What did she move?"
——She looked through all the books, but couldn’t find your research data.
"Have the things in the laboratory been taken out?" Zhong Yuxiu frowned.
——Brought in a camera, took some photos and took them out.
Yan Rushan frowned, "When did you find out there was something wrong with her?"
"I discovered it a long time ago, but she didn't take any action and I have no evidence. Let's not make it public for now. Let Haonan contact the higher-ups tomorrow. If it's not their intention, they will naturally handle it." After weighing the pros and cons for a moment, she decided to keep quiet for the time being.
"Haonan can't do that. I'll talk to Grandpa and let him handle it." Yan Rushan paused and said, "I'm going back now. I won't come to take you to school this afternoon. I'll come back to see you tomorrow for registration. You can meet Haonan in private and ask him to keep an eye on Li Yun."
Zhong Yuxiu nodded, "Then hurry back to find Elder Yan and report the situation here."
"I'm leaving first. Be careful." Yan Rushan unexpectedly reached out and hugged her. "Don't be afraid."
Letting go of his hand, Yan Rushan turned around and quickly walked out of the laboratory, opened the door and went downstairs.
Zhong Yuxiu touched her forehead. When had she ever been afraid? However, in his heart, she needed protection, and she was very satisfied with this realization.
"Goudan, it seems I need to research a surveillance device."
"Okay, master, I will fully cooperate with you. It would be great if we have surveillance equipment this time, so we can record Li Yun's movements." One could actually hear regret in Goudan's calm tone.
Zhong Yuxiu shook her head and laughed, "My data is all in the computer, and she can't open it. The data on the desktop is just a draft, it's useless even if they take it."
"It's illegal to pry into other people's privacy." Goudan said.
"Goudan, this isn't interstellar space. No one will hold you accountable for prying into other people's privacy. It's just a little disgusting. If I weren't a researcher, and my research wasn't something that the higher-ups value, do you think I could handle Li Yun?" Zhong Yuxiu didn't move from the lab, leaving it as it was, and sat down in front of the computer. She crossed her legs, put her hands on her hips, and said leisurely, "No, we haven't even perfected the legal system yet."
The laws of the interstellar age are carefully divided, leaving no room for anyone to exploit loopholes.
Goudan sighed, imitating a scholar, "Master, do you miss Xingxing?"
"No!" Why would I want to? Wouldn't it be nice to stay here?
The air is fresh, the environment is beautiful, and there is no worry about food and drink; in the interstellar space, only the specially developed planets have a slightly better living environment, but it is not as good as it is today.
"Okay, Goudan knows that Master doesn't miss Xingji." Goudan beeped three times and lowered the volume, "Master, there's someone outside the room."
"Got it. Go open the door and see who it is. If it's Haonan or Tian Shangguo, let them in."
Goudan beeped twice, walked out of the laboratory and opened the door; as soon as the sensor scanned, Haonan's identity information automatically appeared in Goudan's database.
"Goudan, Comrade Yan said Comrade Zhong is looking for me?"
Goudan stepped aside to make way, Haonan understood immediately and followed him into the room. After closing the door, he led him into the laboratory. Haonan caught sight of Zhong Yuxiu in front of the computer.
"Hello, Comrade Zhong." Hao Nan saluted. "Comrade Yan Rushan said you wanted to see me about something?"
Zhong Yuxiu turned her head and saw Haonan standing straight with the unique temperament of a soldier.
"Comrade Haonan, when I came in just now, I discovered that the laboratory had been tampered with. And there was only one person who tampered with the laboratory. Do you understand what I mean?"
"Impossible." Haonan retorted subconsciously.
He raised his eyebrows meaningfully, "Why not? What's the basis for that?"
"She was selected together with us. I can't say anything else." Haonan frowned, his eyes filled with regret. "Comrade Zhong, do you have any evidence?"
"Evidence?" Zhong Yuxiu put down her legs, sat up straight, and tapped the computer screen with her fingertips. "See? This is what Goudan wrote. You know Goudan doesn't have human thinking, but it has sensing abilities. Although it usually stands in the corner, it's not idle. On the contrary, it's on extra-long standby. It can sense any movement in my room or my lab."
Haonan turned his gaze to Goudan, "Goudan can also type?"
"Why not? It's my assistant. It needs to know a little bit about everything."
When asked in return, Haonan was speechless.
Zhong Yuxiu didn't intend to delve into it. "I have a task for you now. Are you willing?"
"Yes." After spending a long time with Goudan, Zhong Yuxiu knew how magical he was; she accepted Goudan's typing to tell her well.
"Keep an eye on Li Yun and don't let her find out. Starting tomorrow, you stay home, and Comrade Tian will go to school with me." Zhong Yuxiu smiled and said, "As for what excuses to make, it's up to you."
"I understand. Comrade Zhong, please rest assured. I will complete the task." Haonan was upset that the person selected from the same place might be a spy. He responded to all the tasks assigned by Zhong Yuxiu.
Zhong Yuxiu nodded in satisfaction, "That's it for now. Be careful when you're watching people, don't get discovered."
