Zhang Cong had a habit of staying alone every morning, sometimes doing experiments, sometimes just daydreaming, and sometimes just...watching ants. Regardless, he didn't want to be disturbed at this time of day.
So after much thought, Lu Qin took Qu Dongbo and his group to the experimental field first.
It’s just about taking a senior leader on an inspection tour. She is familiar with this job!
Qu Dongbo didn't mind how the arrangements were made. In fact, he just used it as an excuse to inspect Lu Qin.
......
The fields were all covered in greenhouses, so the temperature inside was higher than outside, but the smell wasn't very pleasant. The stench of earthy soil washed over them, but none of them paid it any attention, simply staring at one of the tiny green seedlings.
In the midst of the white snow and barren land, a green sprout emerges, which makes people happy just by looking at it.
Green represents vitality and hope. Who doesn’t love it?
Lu Qin accompanied Qu Dongbo throughout the whole process, and kindly explained to him the construction of the entire base, the division of each experimental field, and future plans.
While the primary goal is to grow potatoes, other high-yield crops like corn and sweet potatoes are also being tried. However, so far, these efforts have been largely unsuccessful, as temperatures are too low for even sprouts to form.
According to her experience in her previous life, apart from potatoes which could be supplied to ordinary people, everything else was considered a rare variety and basically could not be cultivated on a large scale.
Although the planting experiment has just started, everything is going great and in good order so far, and it can be seen that all the people involved in the project are working very hard.
Qu Dongbo was a little nonchalant. In fact, he had known the situation for a long time. The planting plan had only been started for a short time and there were no visible results at all.
He just wanted to come and see Lu Qin.
Lu Qin, who was standing beside him, noticed his burning gaze and felt a little embarrassed. Although the people accompanying him didn't react much, Lu Qin still felt a little awkward.
She could feel that Qu's eyes were almost glued to her and couldn't be taken down.
Too much!
......
"Xiao Qinqin~~" The elongated tail tone came from not far away.
Lu Qin and Xiao Shen looked at each other and saw helplessness in each other's eyes.
The divine beast is out of the cage, oh no, Professor Zhang is out of the cage.
"Come quickly, come quickly, look what I found!" Zhang Cong ran in from outside with an excited look on his face and rushed straight to Lu Qin.
Normally, Zhang Cong would share his research findings with them. However, since he was always so pretentious, his closest students were not happy with him, so Zhang Cong could only find the good-tempered Lu Qin to annoy her, and he never tired of it.
"Well, professor, Captain Qu is here to take a look at our experimental field. Why don't we wait and see it later?" Lu Qin held his forehead and advised in a low voice.
Zhang Cong immediately frowned and pulled her aside: "Who? No one can come! Come on, let's go see something fun!" After saying that, he pulled her out.
Lu Qin was helpless and looked at Shen Yiting, asking for help with her eyes. Generally speaking, only she could control Professor Zhang.
"Teacher, can you please be quiet?" Shen Yiting was also helpless. His own tutor's personality was simply unbearable.
"You're all mean to me!" Zhang Cong's face fell, and he pointed at Qu Dongbo: "Is it him? Is it this kid?"
"This must be Professor Zhang..." Although Qu Dongbo had never seen such a scene, his good upbringing and strong heart made him take the initiative to ask.
Lu Qin nodded: "Yes, this is Professor Zhang Congzhang, formerly a professor at Southern Agricultural University, and the person in charge of this experimental project..."
Qu Dongbo nodded, "Hello, Professor Zhang. I am..."
Before he could finish his words, Zhang Cong suddenly leaned over, looking at Lu Qin and then at Qu Dongbo, looking at them suspiciously. He had long noticed that the two of them didn't talk much, but the way they exchanged glances was not right!
Zhang Cong pulled Lu Qin behind him to block him: "No, no! Little Qinqin, don't be fooled by this man! He doesn't look like a good person at first glance! I tell you, men are very dangerous. I can tell at a glance that he has no good intentions. Humph, how dare he set his sights on our little Qinqin..."
Lu Qin only felt a flock of crows flying by. He glanced at Qu Dongbo and saw that there was no change on his face. He felt a little guilty.
Could he have misunderstood something?
"Zhang! Cong! Speak to me properly!" Shen Yiting almost lost his temper as he looked at Professor Zhang, who was chattering non-stop. If there weren't important people around at this moment, he would have probably raised his fist and argued with him.
"Professor Zhang and his apprentice are truly unique." Zhang Yu, an old bystander, muttered.
"Let's go and take a look together." Qu Dongbo said to Lu Qin without any expression, "Didn't we say we were going to see if there were any new discoveries?"
Lu Qin's heart skipped a beat.
It's over.
......
After being taught a lesson, Zhang Cong continued to grumble and rolled his eyes at Qu Dongbo, regardless of his identity.
When he heard that they were going to the lab together, his oval face was full of reluctance. He kept watching Qu Dongbo warily along the way, and from time to time he kept Lu Qin aside, as if not letting Qu Dongbo get close.
Lu Qin could only express his innocence.
When they reached the lab, Zhang Cong paused. "...Okay, okay, I told you there's nothing to see in my lab! Get out! Xiao Qinqin and Xiao Tingting stay behind~"
Obviously he didn't want anyone else in his lab.
So the situation became a dilemma.
Lu Qin didn't know why Professor Zhang was so against Qu Dongbo, but she couldn't abandon him for both public and private reasons. Just as she was wondering what to do, Qu Dongbo offered, "Since it's nothing serious, I don't need to check. I've already checked the plantations, and I'm relieved they're doing well."
Lu Qin was about to say something, but swallowed it back. She had a feeling that if she continued to talk now, things would only get worse.
Seeing that he understood what was going on, Zhang Cong snorted and went into the laboratory without looking back.
......
Zhang Yu shuddered.
It wasn't because it was too cold outside, it was simply because the leader sitting in the back row had a face that was almost half a meter long.
"Um...Captain, are we going back like this? Don't you have something to give to little...Sister Lu?" Zhang Yu asked weakly.
The only thing he got in response was a sharp look.
