Mr. Mu, stop bullying Professor Jian.

Not long after Xiang Tongyu went downstairs, the elevator rang and Jiang Shaoqing entered the general manager's office.

On the way, he met Xiang Tongyu, got a general idea of ​​the situation, and walked into the president's office with his face covered.

Mu Qingyuan has calmed down a lot.

Jiang Shaoqing had just come up and was a little confused. After all, he had agreed to the position of 'technical consultant' and kept the person by his side. Did he come up here specifically to scold him?

"Mr. Mu?"

Mu Qingyuan looked up from a marketing plan that he had not even read, his eyes as cold as frost.

"Jiang Shaoqing, did you say anything to him when you were in H City?"

Otherwise, why would Jian Zhinian suddenly come to S City and change so much?

Jiang Shaoqing felt a chill in his heart, touched his nose, and admitted: "We chatted for a few minutes, but he was the one who called me first to ask about your whereabouts. I saw that he was quite anxious and pitiful..."

"He is my teacher. I can't refuse a small request from my mentor, right? I just mentioned that my aunt was injured and was recovering abroad, and I didn't say anything else!"

Jiang Shaoqing raised his hands and almost swore to the sky.

"Then why did he come to Mu's to apply for a job?" Mu Qingyuan's gaze was as sharp as a knife.

Jiang Shaoqing hurriedly said: "This is none of my business, he brought it to me on his own initiative, I just... helped him along..."

The atmosphere is condensed.

Snapped--

Mu Qingyuan put down the documents in his hand. The sound was not loud, but it was particularly abrupt in the quiet president's office at this moment.

"Jiang Shaoqing, you know my situation. It's best for him to stay away from me. I've been fine all these years without him."

Jiang Shaoqing didn't understand, and immediately started to argue: "What's so good about you? For that patent, the old man pressed you so hard that he even held a birthday party in H City to lure you back."

"There are only a few professors in the Chemistry Department of K University who research new energy battery technology. You have long guessed that the patent might be in his hands! And you didn't even bother to ask him about it."

"But even so, you couldn't help but find him and be together with him. Mu Qingyuan, admit it, you want to keep him by your side."

Mu Qingyuan's face was pale, with a lingering gloom between his brows.

After Jiang Shaoqing finished yelling, he calmed down a bit and whispered, "I'm sorry, I just can't stand it. Sorry, I overstepped my bounds."

Whether they were superiors and subordinates or brothers, he had overstepped his boundaries.

"Go out, this is not your fault, just let me be alone for a while." Mu Qingyuan felt more tired than ever before.

Jiang Shaoqing sat down on the sofa next to Jian Zhinian again and said, "Hey, Teacher Jian..."

Jian Zhinian responded and looked at him in confusion. Why did the name change back again?

Jiang Shaoqing shrugged and said sincerely: "To be honest, I think it would be best for you to stand on the podium or in the laboratory."

Jian Zhinian frowned and remained silent.

"I'm speaking from the heart..." Jiang Shaoqing repeated. Jian Zhinian looked disappointed, as if he had been bullied.

"I know." Jian Zhinian forced a smile.

Jiang Shaoqing suddenly felt a little regretful. He regretted letting this person know too much and regretted inviting him to join.

Maybe Mu Qingyuan is right.

This person is too pure.

If you have a little conscience and are a little scheming, you will feel a strange sense of guilt.

Before Jiang Shaoqing could say anything more, Mu Qingyuan walked out.

He knocked on Jian Zhinian's desk and returned his breakfast bag to him.

"get off work!"

Jian Zhinian stood up and followed Mu Qingyuan obediently. Mu Qingyuan actually knew that he brought the breakfast from home?

When Fang Xinbai came back, he was standing at the door and happened to see this scene. The coffee in his hand was shaking a little.

Jiang Shaoqing liked the coffee brewed by Fang Xinbai very much and hurriedly took it in his hands.

After Mu Qingyuan walked away, Fang Xinbai asked vaguely, "Boss Jiang, is Boss Mu off work?"

It's rare to come so early!

"Yes, the leaders are all off work, so Secretary Fang should also get off work early."

Jiang Shaoqing finished his coffee and walked downstairs in style. He also got off work early today!

Jian Zhinian sat in the passenger seat and realized that this was not the way home.

"Where are you going? Aren't you going home?"

Mu Qingyuan glanced at him and said, "Aren't you hungry?"

"Ah? I feel a little bit like that now that you mention it." Jian Zhinian has never been keen on eating.

Mu Qingyuan's face darkened a little, and he asked, "Have you taken stomach medicine these days?"

"...My stomach doesn't hurt..." Jian Zhinian argued.

Mu Qingyuan snorted coldly and waited for a while before speaking: "What do you want to eat?"

"How about the wonton shop at the back door of F University?"

Jian Zhinian turned his head and looked at Mu Qingyuan seriously, and sure enough, he saw that Mu Qingyuan's expression changed.

That year, there was an academic exchange meeting between universities, and Jian Zhinian was sent by K University to F University for three days of academic exchange.

At that time, Jian Zhinian had just agreed to Mu Xingchen's pursuit, and Mu Xingchen secretly followed him to S City. Every afternoon, when Jian Zhinian finished his activities, he would wait for him at the back door of F University.

There is a commercial street towards the back door of F University. Due to the huge influx of students, a huge night market has been formed. It is brightly lit every night and full of the flavor of life.

During those days, Jian Zhinian, who was wearing formal clothes, was awkwardly dragged by Mu Xingchen to walk through various alleys and try various delicacies that he had never touched before.

One of the wonton shops was opened by a middle-aged couple. The taste of the wontons was quite different from those in H City, but it was very much to Jian Zhinian's taste.

The car was moving at a steady speed, and the neon lights on both sides of the elevated road were bright, different from the dim lights in the alleys.

Mu Qingyuan coughed twice and said in a slightly cold voice: "The store was demolished and the owner returned to his hometown."

After hearing this, Jian Zhinian was stunned.

It turns out that not everyone is like me, waiting there...

"How do you know?" Jian Zhinian asked blankly.

Mu Qingyuan turned his head to look at him and didn't answer, but still turned the car.

After getting off the car, when the commercial street appeared in front of him, Jian Zhinian tilted his head to look at Mu Qingyuan and said, "Didn't they say it was demolished? Why are you still here..."

Many of the low buildings here have been demolished, and the commercial street has become much more spacious and brighter. It is not yet eight o'clock, the evening rush hour has passed, and the craze for late-night snacks has not yet arrived. Although there are many people on the commercial street, there are many shops and it is not crowded.

Mu Qingyuan didn't say anything, but suddenly reached out, took his hand, and walked into an alley.

This was the first time that Mu Qingyuan took the initiative to hold his hand since they met again, except for what happened in bed.

The broad, dry palms are warm.

Jian Zhinian's heart suddenly beat faster and he looked up at Mu Qingyuan blankly.

Mu Qingyuan didn't look at him, just walked forward.

Jian Zhinian followed closely, smiling slightly, his eyes becoming a little wet without him noticing.
