After stopping being a simp, the school heartthrob cried and begged to get back together.

Chapter 101 She's Not Right for You

“Okay, I’ll call them in a bit and tell them Dad stood up for me today,” I said with a smile.

"It's a deal." Li Shuochuan smiled and said, "I'm leaving now. I have a business trip this afternoon."

"Yeah." I nodded.

“You’ve been back in Xinjing City for so long, and we haven’t had a proper get-together. When your mother and brother come back at the end of the year, bring your mother along, and we’ll have a meal together,” Li Shuochuan arranged.

"Okay." I smiled slightly. "Dad, take care of yourself too, it's getting cold."

He smiled and said, "Having a daughter is wonderful."

I smiled.

He got into the car.

The driver came over and closed the car door.

The group left.

"Shen Yan, what exactly is your relationship with Director Li!" Xiao Wei walked over angrily.

"Guess," I raised an eyebrow slightly, "that you still have the mind to meddle in my affairs?"

Xiao Wei gritted her teeth: "Don't think you're so great just because you have Director Li backing you up!"

"Ha, you're still worrying about me? You've lost everything now and are facing a lawsuit." I rolled my eyes at her: "Xiao Wei, do you really think I consider you an opponent? You're not even worthy to carry my shoes!"

"You!" Xiao Wei was furious.

Dai Chen'an approached, his expression grave: "How should we handle Luo Wenbin's matter?"

I looked up and saw Luo Wenbin standing not far away, looking dejected.

Dai Chen'an said helplessly, "I know you're angry that he did something like this, but..."

“Betrayal is betrayal,” I whispered. “I can’t just lift a finger and then let it go.”

Dai Chen'an sighed.

I walked over and said, "Luo Wenbin."

"Professor Shen, I'm sorry." Luo Wenbin's voice was hoarse. "I'm really sorry, I will leave the laboratory."

"Professor Ming advised you when he was around, saying that your girlfriend was unreliable." I said, "Do you know that she went to Professor Ming several times, pressuring him to give you a raise?"

Luo Wenbin was taken aback.

“You are indeed very diligent and hardworking, but Professor Ming has already given you the highest salary. You can ask Qi Zhao and Jiang Miao; neither of them earns as much as you, not to mention the bonuses he gave you. Those were all special treatments Professor Ming gave you. When he passed away, he asked me to take good care of you. I believe I have not wronged you in any way.” I looked at him seriously.

Luo Wenbin's eyes immediately reddened, and he wept bitterly, saying, "It's my fault, it's all my fault, I'm so sorry to Professor Ming."

He was unaware of these things.

If he had known all along, he certainly wouldn't have done it.

“I don’t need you here anymore.” I looked at him coldly. “Go to Yuncheng. There’s a group there that needs a deputy group leader.”

Luo Wenbin asked in surprise, "Professor Shen?"

"Go ahead, this is my last act of kindness." I glanced at him and turned away.

Dai Chen'an watched the departing figure, then looked at Luo Wenbin: "She has done everything she could for you."

Luo Wenbin wiped away his tears: "Team Leader Dai, please thank Professor Shen for me. Thank her for not giving up on me completely. I will work hard when I get to Yuncheng and will never do such a thing again."

"Wenbin, break up with that woman." Dai Chen'an hesitated, then added, "She's not right for you."

Luo Wenbin was still a little reluctant to part ways.

Dai Chen'an saw through it, said nothing more, and turned to leave.

Luo Wenbin looked at the sky, tears streaming down his face.

The new laboratory has finally been installed.

Everyone is happy.

In the afternoon, Jiang Miao went over to urge Xiao Wei's group to move out quickly.

Xiao Wei's group was still very unhappy.

"Why are you rushing us? It's not like we're not going to move."

"Exactly! It's only been one day, how could we possibly finish cleaning up!"

Having endured their rudeness several times, Jiang Miao crossed her arms and sneered, "You knew you couldn't clean this up? Who let you move in in the first place? If you steal from someone, you have to give it back. Don't you understand that?"

"What are you so smug about? If it weren't for Shen Yan's special relationship with Director Li, would you even have gotten this lab?"

"Explain yourself clearly. What is the relationship between Professor Shen and Director Li? Speak up!" Jiang Miao glared at her. "You bunch of cronies, do you think everyone got their positions through connections?"

Qi Zhao walked over and said, "I've recorded everything. If you keep talking, I'll send the video to Director Li."

They all fell silent immediately.

"I advise you not to speak recklessly or make wild guesses. There are so many universities across the country, and many laboratories can receive specific funding. Are they all related to Director Li? If so, how can our country's scientific research progress?" Qi Zhao said seriously.

They lowered their heads.

"We'll give you one more day. The most important thing now is to get the office ready," Qi Zhao urged. "Understand?"

They nodded and then went to tidy up the office.

Jiang Miao looked at Qi Zhao: "Well done, you're speaking with such authority now."

Qi Zhao snorted: "Of course, we have plenty of confidence now."

"It's not like you're the one with the most confidence," Jiang Miao joked.

"Professor Shen has confidence, so I have confidence too," Qi Zhao said smugly.

Jiang Miao smiled, feeling relaxed and happy.

-

Principal's office.

Wang Jing called and asked me to come over.

I'll give him face one last time.

He saw me and said coldly, "I never expected that Director Li would be your backer."

"I wouldn't call it having powerful backers. It's just that I have a lot of things that are beneficial to the country and its people. I've never thought about using them to make a fortune. I just hope to help those in need, which is why Director Li supports me." I narrowed my eyes slightly.

"Since you have Director Li backing you up, why didn't you bring him up from the beginning?" Wang Jing frowned.

“Because it’s not the time to need him yet.” I sat down. “There’s a saying that goes, ‘To destroy someone, first make them mad.’ Look how mad you all are, you’ve used every trick in the book.”

Wang Jing pursed his lips: "You did this just to avenge Mingzhe?"

"Otherwise what?" I raised an eyebrow: "Professor Ming was almost ruined by you. He still remembered the harm you caused him before he passed away."

Wang Jing said quietly, "Mingzhe is indeed very capable. He studies ancient books and promotes traditional Chinese medicine, but he has offended people."

I frowned: "Who?"

“The Min family,” Wang Jing said coldly, “He shouldn’t have fallen for that young lady from the Min family back then, otherwise he would have achieved great success long ago.”

I sneered: "The Min family deliberately suppressed him, yet they blame him for falling in love with Miss Min. What kind of logic is that?"

"Do you know how the Min family found out about their relationship?" Wang Jing looked at me meaningfully.

I narrowed my eyes: "It seems the principal wants to make a deal with me?"

"Smart." Wang Jing glanced at me. "You want to avenge Mingzhe. I think you'll definitely want to know the whole story."

"What are the conditions?" I asked.

"I need you to promise me I won't go to jail," Wang Jing said.

I thought about it and said, "Then we'll have to see if what you're saying is useful to me."
