Seeing that she really did not want to go, Qin Mucheng said, “Alright, don’t stand outside. Be careful not to catch a cold.”
Ji Yuanyuan turned around and led Wu Qiuyun back.
After Ji Yuanyuan’s figure disappeared, Qin Mucheng retracted his gaze and looked at Zhou Hua, “Let’s go.”
Then, he stepped into Zhou Hua’s laboratory.
Zhou Hua followed behind and heaved a sigh of relief.
Ji Yuanyuan followed Wu Qiuyun back to the laboratory. She carefully observed Wu Qiuyun’s expression, afraid that she would be angry.
As expected, Wu Qiuyun’s expression did not look good.
Ji Yuanyuan quickly apologized, “Teacher, I’m really sorry. I didn’t know that he would come today. I didn’t mean to make such a scene in front of Teacher Zhou.”
She was afraid Wu Qiuyun would think she deliberately asked Qin Mucheng and Lin Nan to make things difficult for Zhou Hua to avenge her.
Wu Qiuyun looked at Ji Yuanyuan with an indifferent expression, “You can’t be blamed for what happened today.”
It was Zhou Hua’s wishful thinking that Ji Yuanyuan was there to pick a fight with him, which was why he became a joke today.
Ji Yuanyuan felt a little strange. Since Wu Qiuyun did not blame her for today’s matter, why did she look so upset?
Just as Ji Yuanyuan was feeling puzzled, Wu Qiuyun asked, “Your husband wants to work with Zhou Hua?”
Ji Yuanyuan shook her head awkwardly, “I basically don’t ask about his business. I only found out today…1’11 ask him in detail when I get back tonight.” Wu Qiuyun sighed, “It’s probably because of Zhou Hua’s recent research project.”
“Bioresorbable stent?” Ji Yuanyuan had also heard about Zhou Hua’s research project.
Wu Qiuyun nodded. She seemed to be a little hesitant, but after a moment of silence, she said, “Although it might not be appropriate for me to say this, I think you need to remind your husband that Zhou Hua is not a good business partner.”
Ji Yuanyuan knew that Wu Qiuyun and Zhou Hua had a grudge against each other, so she did not find it strange that Wu Qiuyun said so.
She nodded, “I’ll remind him. Besides, there should be multiple investigations before the cooperation. It’s not like we can cooperate just because we want to.” Seeing that Ji Yuanyuan did not seem to understand her meaning, Wu Qiuyun immediately said, “The reason why I said this is not because of my grudge against him, but because I know his character.”
Only then did Ji Yuanyuan understand that Wu Qiuyun was implying something.
She was silent for a moment before she said in a low voice, “Okay, thank you, Teacher Wu. If my husband is interested in working with him, I will remind him.”
Wu Qiuyun saw that Ji Yuanyuan had taken her words in and stood up, “I still have classes. I’ll be leaving first.”
Looking at Wu Qiuyun’s back, Ji Yuanyuan had a thoughtful look on her face. After staying in the laboratory for more than an hour, Ji Yuanyuan received a call from Lin Nan.
“How is it? Did you feel good when you saw Zhou Hua’s expression just now?” “Lin Nan, aren’t you childish?” Ji Yuanyuan was a little helpless. “Qin Mucheng actually cooperated with you to do such childish things. I’m really curious.” Lin Nan chuckled, “How can he not cooperate to vent his wife’s anger?” “It’s been so long, why bother?” Ji Yuanyuan sighed and said.
At that time, Gao Qionghui was studying with her and knew she wanted to choose Zhou Hua as her tutor.
During this period, Gao Qionghui and the others were also quite concerned about her progress.
Then, something like that happened. Ji Yuanyuan did not hide it from them. However, it had been so long, and Lin Nan was still doing this.
“It’s not like we specifically looked for him. It’s the project he’s working on now. The school doesn’t give him enough funds, so he must pull in his investments. I don’t know where he got the news, but the project that our company and Shenghe are working on now is in the same direction as his research project.”
“Did he take the initiative to look for you?” Ji Yuanyuan asked in surprise.
Lin Nan agreed, “Of course.”
“Besides, we didn’t tease him on purpose just to help you vent your anger. Zhou Hua had indeed done quite well in this aspect. After today’s inspection, we all feel that it’s not bad. If nothing unexpected happens, we should be working together.”
“You plan to cooperate with Zhou Hua?” Ji Yuanyuan was even more surprised. “I think there’s a possibility of cooperation. I haven’t asked your husband for his opinion yet. You should go back and ask your husband. But so far, no one in the country can compare to Zhou Hua in the research of bioresorbable stent.” Lin Nan said very objectively.
Ji Yuanyuan recalled Wu Qiuyun’s words, and her expression turned solemn. “Okay, I’ll ask him when we get back.”
At 530 p.m., Qin Mucheng came to pick Ji Yuanyuan up from work.
As soon as they got into the car, Ji Yuanyuan could not help but ask, “I heard from Lin Nan that you are very satisfied with today’s inspection. Are you planning to work with Zhou Hua?”
Ji Yuanyuan asked absent-mindedly, thinking about how she should tactfully remind Qin Mucheng so that he would not feel that the suggestion she gave him was out of personal grudges.
“I don’t plan to cooperate.” Qin Mucheng turned sideways and helped Ji Yuanyuan fasten her seatbelt.
Ji Yuanyuan did not expect this answer.
“What?” She looked at Qin Mucheng in surprise.
Qin Mucheng was very calm and repeated his answer, “I don’t plan to work with him.”
“Why? Didn’t Lin Nan say that no one in the country could compare to Zhou Hua in the research of bio-absorbing stent?” Ji Yuanyuan was a little surprised. “No one can compare to him now, but that doesn’t mean that no one can compare to him in the future. There are many capable people in the world. Why do I have to work with someone my wife hates?”
Hearing this reason, Ji Yuanyuan did not know whether to laugh or cry, “You’re the leader of a corporation, after all. How can you be so ignorant? How are you going to explain this to your subordinates? Just say that your wife hates Zhou Hua, so you don’t plan to cooperate with him?”
Seeing that Qin Mucheng’s expression did not change at all, Ji Yuanyuan asked again, “Since you don’t plan to cooperate with him, why did you come here to investigate?”
“Zhou Hua contacted my subordinates. They will first conduct a preliminary screening. When I found out that this person was Zhou Hua, my subordinates, Lin Nan, and Zhou Hua, had already decided on the time for the inspection.” Ji Yuanyuan looked at Qin Mucheng’s innocent expression and asked, “So you’re saying that I can’t blame you for this, but Lin Nan?”
“I didn’t say that, but if you insist on thinking that way, I can’t help it.” Qin Mucheng continued.
Why were these words so infuriating?
“Don’t let me affect your work. We still have to cooperate. Otherwise, I won’t dare to tell you anything in the future.” Ji Yuanyuan reminded helplessly.
“So you want Shenghe and Zhou Hua to work together?” Qin Mucheng asked.
“Of course not.” Ji Yuanyuan retorted immediately.
Qin Mucheng smiled knowingly.
Ji Yuanyuan was helpless, “But it’s not because I hate him, it’s for Shenghe’s sake..”
