Cannon had mixed blood. He was not a pure European. His mother was Chinese but had left the country earlier and married his father. Later on, she remained overseas.
But both his parents passed away, and now he was all alone.
He vaguely remembered that he had some relatives, but they were not close. Also, he was immersed in research and could not navigate daily life. To others, his career seemed to be on the decline.
His family members could not be bothered with him. They wished him as far away as possible. If they knew that he was the most senior student of the person in charge of the international medical group, they would fawn over him!
Gu Qingyao had cooked many Chinese meals for him when she was overseas. Cannon had liked them very much. His mother was from China, and she had often made many similar dishes for him when he was young. He had not eaten such food since his mother passed away.
It was very hard to find proper Chinese food overseas.
He only got to eat such things after he met Gu Qingyao.
Now that he was in China, he did not feel uncomfortable at all when he ate these dishes.
He used his chopsticks very nimbly.
She watched him gobble. Although Gu Qingyao understood her teacher’s difficulties, she would never let her true feelings show!
She wanted her Senior to stay and work for her!
“Right, right, right! Teacher is too hardhearted. Although you blew up his laboratory, you didn’t do it on purpose, right? It’s not as if you had no research results. You have done so many excellent pieces of research, so what if you blow up a laboratory or two? Right?”
Cannon agreed. “I didn’t mean to! Who knew that it would explode! I was frightened to death!”
Gu Qingyao: “…”
Brother, why is your research in drugs as dangerous as researching chemical weapons? How did you manage to do that?
Gu Qingyao could not understand it. This man was so talented that his results in the medical field were outstanding. But he just enjoyed random research. Although he did not blow up the laboratory often, when he did, it was serious.
Actually, all kinds of small explosions were common when he was doing research. Which was why he had become so skilled.
The entire laboratory had blown up, but he was unscathed.
Even Teacher had to tip his hat at him.
Gu Qingyao smiled and put more food in his bowl. “Don’t worry, Senior. In the future, I will provide the laboratory. As long as you properly formulate the drugs I require and find a way to mass-produce them, you can spend your free time researching whatever you like. If you need help, just look for me. If you need any apparatus, just let me know. I promise to get it for you.”
Gu Qingyao was very confident of this point.
The old fellow was always very courteous to her in order to obtain her financial help. The international medical group had the most advanced medical equipment in the world, and she had plenty of money. With this connection, she could get any apparatus she wanted.
Although Professor Ai Bode was in charge of the medical group, he did not have the final say.
Although he appreciated talent and was very fond of this genius Senior, he could not protect him much when he exhibited this extraordinary ability to blow up laboratories.
Senior was not so talented as to blow up the entire medical group. He usually blew up his side of the laboratory and some commonly shared laboratory space.
He had destroyed many pieces of apparatus. On two of the most serious occasions, he had blown up the entire laboratory.
