Chapter 19 Why are you here?
Xu Jinyi, who was already a little irritable, became even more irritable and said in an impatient tone: "Come in!"
The person who pushed the door open was Assistant Chen. Assistant Chen knew that the young lady was in a bad mood before she came in, so he hurriedly said before he even approached, "Mr. Xu, Professor Xie is here."
Xu Jinzhi was originally looking down at the documents, not even willing to give Assistant Chen an extra glance. He was stunned when he heard this, and subconsciously raised his eyes to look at Assistant Chen, "Who are you talking about?"
Assistant Chen was trembling with fear at first, but when he saw President Xu looking up, he immediately put on a formal smile and said, "Thank you, Professor Yanchuan."
"Why is he here?" Xu Jinzhi was very confused. While wondering, he stood up and walked quickly out of the office.
"The front desk just called and said that because of your engagement with Professor Xie, they asked Professor Xie to come up directly. I have already told the front desk that they must call to confirm next time..."
Xu Jinzhi suddenly stopped and turned back to look at Assistant Chen meaningfully.
Assistant Chen also realized that he had said the wrong thing and immediately changed his tone, "I said they were right. Who is Professor Xie? Of course he can come over anytime."
Xu Jinzhi sneered and was too lazy to argue with Assistant Chen. His originally depressed mood had improved the moment he knew Xie Yanchuan was here.
Coming out of the office, Xu Jinzhi didn't see Xie Yanchuan. He turned around and looked at Assistant Chen and asked, "Where is he?"
Assistant Chen was also stunned for a moment. As soon as he received the notification from the front desk, he hurried to the office to inform Mr. Xu, "He should have come up."
In a flash, Xu Jinzhi suddenly remembered something. Didn’t He Jingyi just leave?
Xu Jinzhi's face changed. In addition to the dedicated elevator, there are three other elevators in operation in the building. It can't be such a coincidence, right?
While thinking about this, Xu Jinzhi quickly walked towards the elevator, but she was still a step too late. When Xu Jinzhi walked over, she happened to see two men standing outside the elevator.
Xu Jinzhi took a deep breath and just hoped that He Jingyi, that idiot, didn't talk nonsense!
"Xie Yanchuan!" Xu Jinzhi shouted in a high voice.
The two people at the elevator entrance looked towards Xu Jinzhi. At this moment, Xie Yanchuan still had such a calm expression, as if nothing at any time could cause him to have too much emotional fluctuation.
But He Jingyi had an angry look on his face. It was obvious that he had just been looking at Xie Yanchuan with that expression. When he looked at Xu Jin at this moment, the expression on his face had not changed in time.
Xu Jinzhi felt a headache. He intuitively felt that the brainless He Jingyi must have said something stupid. Xu Jinzhi couldn't help but scold He Jingyi again in his heart.
Coming in front of Xie Yanchuan, Xu Jinzhi ignored He Jingyi and asked Xie Yanchuan with some confusion, "Why are you here?"
Xie Yanchuan looked at the girl in front of him who seemed a little anxious, opened his mouth, and then said in a gentle voice: "You said you were not busy in the afternoon, so I came over."
"I'm not busy, but aren't you still busy doing experiments?" Xu Jinzhi asked the question in her heart. If Xie Yanchuan wasn't busy, she would have gone to date Xie Yanchuan long ago.
Xie Yanchuan didn't say anything for a while, and there was a bit of weirdness in the quiet air.
Xu Jinzhi reacted, then directly pulled Xie Yanchuan's wrist and said, "Let's go to the office first."
Xu Jinzhi dragged Xie Yanchuan away, and He Jingyi's unwilling voice came from behind, "Jinzhi!"
Xu Jinzhi heard it, but pulled Xie Yanchuan to walk faster. Xie Yanchuan, who was one step behind, turned back slightly to glance at He Jingyi who was still standing at the elevator entrance.
It was not until they arrived at the office that Xu Jinzhi let go of Xie Yanchuan.
The two looked at each other. Xie Yanchuan seemed to have no idea what to say. He handed the bag in his hand to Xu Jinzhi and said, "I don't know if you are talking about this restaurant's afternoon tea." Only then did Xu Jinzhi notice the paper bag in Xie Yanchuan's hand. She knew which restaurant it was by looking at the bag. She had told Xie Yanchuan about it on WeChat not long ago.
Xu Jinzhi's face was full of surprise, "Did you buy it specially?"
Xie Yanchuan didn't say yes or no, but the meaning was very clear, and Xu Jinzhi couldn't have failed to understand it. After all, it was she who sent a message to Xie Yanchuan at noon.
This store doesn't do delivery, so you can only buy it yourself or ask someone to do it for you. However, Xu Jinzhi thought it was too much trouble and said he would buy it when he passed by after get off work.
"What's wrong with you? Aren't you very busy? How do you still have time to buy afternoon tea?" Xu Jinzhi asked the doubts in his heart again.
Xie Yanchuan looked at Xu Jinzhi, as if he found it difficult to speak. After a while, he said, "There was a problem with the experimental results. It has been stopped now."
The experimental results were not ideal, and the breakthrough that was thought to be achieved before did not have any effect. The experiment was stopped. After Xie Yanchuan came out of the laboratory, he didn't know what to do.
When he saw the message Xu Jinzhi sent him, he hesitated and hesitated until here.
Xie Yanchuan was very calm when he said this, but Xu Jinzhi could still hear a hint of loneliness in his words.
Although they are in completely different fields, Xu Jinzhi can understand Xie Yanchuan's feelings, not to mention that she knows how much effort Xie Yanchuan puts into his work.
There are many people in the pharmaceutical field who have never been able to develop useful drugs in their entire lives.
Seeing that Xu Jinzhi didn't say anything, Xie Yanchuan continued: "I'm sorry, I came here without saying hello in advance. I hope I didn't disturb you at work."
"How could that be!" Xu Jinzhi said in surprise, and then smiled and said to Xie Yanchuan, "Thank you for buying me afternoon tea."
Xie Yanchuan smiled gently, and then seemed to have nothing to say to Xu Jinzhi.
"So are you okay today?" Xu Jinzhi asked.
Xie Yanchuan nodded slightly. He had no classes this afternoon. In the laboratory, everyone had gone back to rest because the experimental results were not ideal. He himself had no idea at the moment.
Thinking of this, Xie Yanchuan couldn't help but think of the boy he met when he came out of the elevator and was about to leave.
He asked himself why he should be with Xu Jinzhi.
He did not answer the other party's question.
"Then can we have dinner together today?" Xu Jinzhi tilted his head slightly and looked at Xie Yanchuan with joy.
Xie Yanchuan nodded again. He didn't have anything to do, so it was indeed possible.
"Then wait for me, I'll finish signing the documents in my hand and then leave!" Xu Jinzhi didn't even have time to have afternoon tea, and hurriedly turned around and sat back at his desk.
My dear friends, I beg you for recommendations, collections, and monthly votes!
