Surprise! The wife of a top star is actually a Nobel Prize winner
Chapter 101 Visiting a Friend
Li Xiao, who had put down his luggage and came out to wash his hands, said when he heard this: "Dad, don't look at me as having lost a lot of weight, but I have become stronger. Look, I have gained meat. The physical training of these two months was not in vain." As he said this, he showed his biceps muscles to his parents.
Mother Li looked at her son with a smile, as if she couldn't get enough of him. She called out, "Son, come and have dinner. Mom knew you were coming back today, so she asked your dad to go to the market early this morning and buy you a lot of your favorite vegetables. Come and have some quick food."
"Wow, how come it's so rich, Mom? What I miss most in Beijing is your cooking. The food in the training camp was light, and most of it was nutritious meals with no taste. It took me a long time to adapt when I first got there."
Mother Li looked distressed. "Then while you're at home, I'll make delicious food for you every day and try to make up for it."
"You don't need to eat so much. Just make one or two meals for me to satisfy my cravings. We have weight requirements, and I haven't reached the standard yet. I can't eat it all back."
"It seems that this job is not easy, but you must not ruin your body just to lose weight, otherwise it will not be worth it." Li's father advised.
"I know. Look at me now, don't I? I'm thinner, but I'm strong. I didn't starve myself to lose weight. I listened to our physical trainer and lost weight through exercise and diet."
Hearing this, Mr. Li felt relieved.
Mother Li changed the subject, "Son, you've been in Beijing for so long. Besides training, have you ever gone out to play with your classmates during your breaks?"
"Most of our days off are spent hanging out, Mom, I tell you..."
Li Xiao then told his parents about his experiences in Beijing and the fun things that happened during the training camp. He had actually already told them some of these things on the phone, but his parents still listened with great interest. They took photos of all the gifts their son brought back and posted them on their respective WeChat Moments to show off.
Li Xiao acted like a good son at home for several days.
Apart from his usual morning run, he basically never left the house. At most, he would go to the vegetable market with his parents to buy some vegetables and go downstairs to take out the trash. The rest of the time he stayed at home watching TV series and playing games. Sometimes when his mother got home late from get off work, he would cook for his parents.
After two or three days, Li's mother finally had enough of her son clinging to her and started to drive him away.
"Son, why don't you go out and play with your classmates and friends? You stay at home all the time and you're getting moldy." After saying this, she looked at him with disgust.
"Dad, look at my mom. She kept complaining about me every day before she came back. Now she's only been back for a few days and she's already starting to dislike me."
"Don't call me. You really should go out and get some sunshine. You stay at home all day long. You don't have the youthful energy at all."
So Li Xiao, who was despised by both his parents, finally remembered that he still had one or two good friends waiting for his "favor".
In fact, it’s not that he didn’t ask them out, but it was the weekend he just came back, when he and his parents were enjoying family time together after a long separation. After the warmth of the time passed, they were all back to work these few days. He knew very well how busy they were before the holiday.
He originally wanted to wait until the National Day holiday to make an appointment, but his parents kicked him out, so he had to go to Haoyue Advertising Company to play.
It was almost noon when he arrived at Haoyue. He did not contact Li Sheng and the others in advance, thinking of giving them a surprise.
When he walked into the company's gate, the receptionist Dongdong wanted to say hello, but he stopped her with a "hush" sound, nodded to her, pointed with his finger, and walked towards the planning department office.
At this time, the planning department was indeed as he expected. They were busy rushing the work to a certain point before the holiday, and everyone was working hard with their heads down.
Li Sheng was sitting at the workstation in front of Cheng Cheng, the outermost one. He was busy with something, but since his seat was close to the door, he caught sight of Li Xiao as he entered. He turned his head slightly and said, "Fuck, Li Xiao, you inhuman fellow, you finally came to look for me?"
After saying that, he suddenly jumped up and choked Li Xiao. After releasing him, he patted his back fiercely. "If you don't come to me again, I'm going to arrest you at your house myself. You haven't shown up in so many days since you came back. What are you doing at home?"
Li Xiao was almost out of breath because of Li Sheng's ferocious moves.
After hearing what he said, I hit him twice in annoyance.
"I'm a filial son to my mother at home."
While chatting and laughing, he nodded and waved to other colleagues.
Then, without being asked, he found an empty chair and sat next to Li Sheng.
"What are you busy doing sitting here? Where's the new assistant? Didn't you already hire someone?"
"You're just saying that. I'm getting depressed just talking about this. Do you think our department assistant position is cursed? We can't keep anyone here, and the new one didn't last more than two months and died a while ago."
"What nonsense are you talking about? You're cursed, but wasn't Cheng Cheng treating you well before?"
"Li Xiao, you don't know, it's because Xiao Chengcheng did such a good job before. Without her, we are like missing our left and right arms. And now without you, we are left without both arms. It's terrible, really." Li Sheng said while wiping away the non-existent tears in a funny way.
Brother Lei next to him signaled him to stop talking nonsense. Li Xiao saw that the face of the junior brother at his previous workstation was a little red, and reminded Li Sheng: "That's enough. If you keep acting weird, the junior brother will think you despise him."
The junior student next to him blushed and said, "No, no, you guys chat about your things, I don't mind."
Li Xiao saw how shy he was and thought he looked a bit like Xiaobai in the training team.
"You just graduated this year, right? What major did you study?"
"Brother Li Xiao, hello. My name is Wu Jin. I also studied advertising design and graduated this year. Brother Li, my roommates and I admire you so much!"
"Hey, hey, hey, Xiao Wuzi, didn't I tell you before not to do this? Otherwise, what if your senior brother Li Xiao gets too proud?"
Well, it seems that Li Sheng has found a new partner with whom he can play and fight every day.
Li Xiao felt a little relieved and reminded him, "You haven't told me what you're doing sitting here. Are you working part-time as an assistant now?"
Brother Lei next to him burst out laughing.
Li Xiao looked at Brother Lei with interest, it seemed like there was something going on.
"Don't look at Brother Lei anymore. Let me tell you something. Li Xiao, you don't know, but ever since Xiao Chengcheng came up with this spreadsheet and these little tools, I've noticed that a lot of the work in our department has become incredibly simple and rigid. For example, here, we just input the data we already know, and a lot of the required parameters will appear. It saves a lot of effort."
