I, holding the script, kidnapped the male protagonist's benefactor

When Chen Kang saw this news, his mind was in a mess.

If the professor has already applied for a patent for the new extract, then they have spent so much effort on it.

He even risked exposing himself to steal the information, so wouldn't that be completely in vain?

"boom!"

A loud noise suddenly sounded in the experimental area.

People who were talking or working looked towards the source of the sound.

It was discovered that the person who made the sound was the teaching assistant Chen Kang. Somehow, he knocked over a pile of documents on the table.

"Assistant Chen, are you okay?"

A technician who was nearby came over and asked with concern, and helped him pack up the landlord's information.

"It's okay." Chen Kang smiled reluctantly, "I have something to do. Can you help me clean up the rest?"

"Oh, okay, then go ahead and do your work. Leave this to me."

Chen Kang got up and left.

"What's wrong with the teaching assistant? He always seems absent-minded lately." A colleague came over and asked.

The technician thought of the scene where his hands were shaking when he picked up something just now, "Maybe he is sick."

Chen Kang hesitated for a long time before going over and knocking on the door of Cheng Mo's laboratory.

After a few seconds, he heard a voice from inside asking him to come in, so he opened the door and went in.

Cheng Mo was wearing a white lab coat and goggles, staring intently at the lab mice in the petri dish.

"Something?" Cheng Mo didn't even raise his head.

"Professor, everyone has seen your interview video and they all said they were surprised that you would accept an interview with a reporter this time."

Cheng Mo didn’t like being interviewed before. Unless it was an important occasion where he had to appear, he would leave it to Chen Kang.

Before knowing Chen Kang's true identity, Cheng Mo always thought that Chen Kang had a good personality and could get along well with everyone.

Because he often brings other people along when he speaks in front of him, just like now.

Now I understand that he was just using others to achieve his own goals.

Cheng Mo simply responded, "The situation this time is more important."

"When did you apply for the patent for the extract numbered 0763? Didn't you say that you needed more experimental data as a basis?"

Chen Kang couldn't help it and asked directly about what he cared about most.

"Are you concerned about the extract of 0763?" Cheng Mo looked down at him.

Chen Kang was nervous when he was looked at, but he pretended to be calm and said, "Of course I care. Didn't the professor tell us to do more experiments? We still have several experiments that have not been completed yet."

"Last time, there was an accident at the experimental base. I was worried that someone was coming for my antibiotic. In order to avoid any more trouble, I applied for a patent in advance."

Chen Kang's heart sank instantly, and he forced a smile: "But doesn't it take a long time to apply for a patent?"

"Chen Kang, how long have you been with me?" Cheng Mo asked.

Chen Kang's heart skipped a beat when he suddenly heard this question. He immediately replied, "It's been six years."

They had worked together before Cheng Mo became a professor.

Later, because of his outstanding strength, he achieved many excellent results.

Cheng Mo became the youngest professor in the history of S University. The school also helped him set up a laboratory and approved a lot of funding for him.

At that time, Chen Kang was a careful person. Although his abilities were not as outstanding as others, he was very good at coordinating and organizing others.

Cheng Mo recruited him into his laboratory and made him his teaching assistant, a position he held for six years.

And although he is called an assistant teacher, he is actually equivalent to his deputy and has a high say in the experimental base.

He asked himself whether he had ever treated Chen Kang unfairly. He gave him an annual salary of hundreds of thousands, which was more than the salary and year-end bonus of many associate professors in universities, and he would occasionally give him other bonuses.

Cheng Mo couldn't understand, was the reason he betrayed her just because of money?

"Are you short of money recently?"

"No." Chen Kang was stunned and took the opportunity to show his loyalty.

"Professor, you pay me so much every year. I always feel very lucky. Other graduate students and doctoral students are not like me. They can directly enter your laboratory after graduation and get an annual salary of 600,000 yuan. If the project is done well, there will be a big bonus."

All the miscellaneous expenses added up sometimes exceed 700,000 or 800,000.

But, it stops there.

Chen Kang knew very well that Cheng Mo had always treated him as just an assistant who was easy to use.

It sounds good on the surface, and many things in the experimental base are left to him to arrange, but in fact they are all unimportant.

If he wanted to become famous, he still had to do projects, but Cheng Mo never arranged any for him.

"It's indeed not a small amount." Cheng Mo looked at him.

Chen Kang didn't understand why the professor suddenly asked about this topic today, which made him feel a little uneasy.

Cheng Mo continued, "I originally planned to let you gain more experience, and then I would approve some funding for you in the second half of the year so that you can work on your own projects."

Chen Kang's face froze. "Second half of the year? Are you telling the truth?"

No, he must have been lied to.

"Of course, I have selected the project and have already applied for it." Cheng Mo threw a document on the table.

Chen Kang immediately picked up the document and took a closer look, and it turned out to be true.

Cheng Mo has already applied for it for him.

He finally got what he had always wanted, but why did it happen now, after he had done all those things?

"Professor, since you have already applied for a patent, why didn't you tell me earlier?"

Chen Kang felt a little resentful. If it had been earlier, he would never have agreed to cooperate with Lu Xingchen, nor would he have helped him steal experimental data.

Because he was too excited, he even forgot to conceal his tone.

As soon as Cheng Mo saw his reaction, he knew what he was thinking and was very disappointed with him.

"Your abilities are limited, so I haven't let you work on projects independently in the past few years."

"But I know you still want to do the project, so I want to give you this opportunity."

"I originally wanted to tell you this news after the experiment was completed."

Chen Kang felt extremely regretful, it was just a little bit short.

"Don't you regret it? If you were just a little bit away, you would get what you want and wouldn't go the wrong way."

Chen Kang was suddenly startled and looked up at Cheng Mo with a stiff expression.

"Professor, why don't I understand what you are talking about?"

"You came here just to test whether I really applied for a patent for the extract, didn't you?"

Cheng Mo put down what he was holding and stared at him expressionlessly, his cold eyes full of oppression.

"I want to know, but I don't mean anything else." Chen Kang explained hurriedly.

He has now lost the huge profits brought by the extract patent, and he cannot lose his current business.

"Really? Then can you explain what this is?" Cheng Mo picked up the tablet on the table, opened a video, and placed it in front of him.
