To thank Liu Weiguo, Mu Xiaowan treated him to dinner.

To avoid unnecessary trouble, Mu Xiaowan brought Chu Shaoqing along and also called Liu Caiwei.

Liu Weiguo really wanted to spend time alone with Mu Xiaowan, but he knew his sister's heart belonged to Chu Shaoqing. That brat had this inexplicable arrogance; his sister was such an outstanding girl, yet he had rejected her time and time again.

It's been so long since they went on that blind date, and there's still no progress between them.

His sister was also stubborn. He tried to persuade her many times to no avail, but instead she became more and more attached to Chu Shaoqing.

Therefore, he should help his sister in this situation and let them spend more time together; there might still be hope.

He didn't like that guy; he just couldn't bear to see his sister hurt.

Mu Xiaowan asked Chu Shaoqing to book a restaurant for 7 p.m.

Chu Shaoqing and Mu Xiaowan originally planned to ride bicycles, but unexpectedly Liu Weiguo came to pick them up in person.

Mu Xiaowan closed the shop early, and the group went to a restaurant together.

When she left, Mu Xiaowan gave Liu Weiguo all the supplements and food she had bought.

"Why are you giving me these things? I don't need them, and I'm not old, so why would I need these supplements?" Liu Weiguo said with a smile.

Mu Xiaowan asked him to open the trunk, and then said, "I originally wanted to invite Mr. Lin to dinner, but Mr. Lin is a man of refined character and is also very busy with work, so he won't go with me. To express my feelings, I bought these things."

Professor Lin is the one who helped Mu Xiaowan.

"Old Lin helped me a lot this time. I would really feel bad if I didn't do something for him."

"In that case, let's just leave it."

Liu Weiguo took the things from Mu Xiaowan and put them in the trunk. "Actually, you don't need to be so polite. He didn't want your payment because you gave him a new idea and let him see new things. He even told me that he wanted to thank you."

"Old Lin likes you a lot. He said you are much better than his students, even better than him, and that you are very talented. He also asked me to take you to see him when you are not busy."

Mu Xiaowan knew that after seeing the project she had worked on, Old Lin had indeed praised her highly. He hadn't held back at all when helping her, and had even brought his own materials. Without those materials, she might not have been able to finish the project in a long time.

Mr. Lin was a good teacher; he cherished talent.

Liu Weiguo thought for a moment and suggested, "Why don't you just become his disciple and stay behind as his last student? That way, it will be much more convenient for me to attend his classes and for him to help me."

"If I could become Master Lin's apprentice, it would be a blessing I've accumulated over three lifetimes."

That way, she wouldn't have to hide it anymore.

"do you agree?"

"Of course, why wouldn't I agree to something so good?" It's good to have someone backing you up.

"In that case, why don't we just go to Old Lin's place for dinner and go to the market to buy groceries?"

Mu Xiaowan quickly stopped him from thinking that way, "Why don't we just buy the ready-made food at the cafeteria and eat there?"

She can't cook, and it would be too embarrassing to bring the groceries she bought to someone else to cook for her.

"That works too. I'll give Lao Lin a call."

Liu Weiguo never mentioned his relationship with Old Lin, but from the fact that he called Old Lin "Old Lin" and that he was able to get Old Lin's help, it can be seen that the two had a good relationship.

After Liu Weiguo made a phone call next door, he told Mu Xiaowan to pack her things and leave.

I remembered Liu Weiguo saying that it was Lin's wife's birthday today.

When passing by a flower shop, Mu Xiaowan bought a bouquet of flowers.

While waiting for the food, she sent Chu Shaoqing to the next street to buy a cake.

"It seems you really want to be Lao Lin's apprentice. I'm envious of your dedication."

Liu Weiguo joked, "Why don't you put some effort into me too? You can choose any position you want in my company. As for the annual salary, just name your price."

Mu Xiaowan smiled and said, "My appetite is huge, and a limited position can't satisfy me."

"It seems I was being presumptuous."

Liu Weiguo had previously felt that Mu Xiaowan was not simple. That day, Mu Xiaowan personally asked him to help introduce her to someone who understood technology. Out of curiosity, he asked her a few questions.

Unexpectedly, Mu Xiaowan's motivation was to find help for herself; she was very frank and made no attempt to hide anything.

It was at this moment that he felt Mu Xiaowan was even more precious, and he admired her even more.

Mu Xiaowan is like a piece of uncut jade; gradually you will discover how precious she is.

After all the dishes were prepared, they set off for Mr. Lin's residence, the university's apartment building.

Liu Weiguo often visited Old Lin, so the gatekeeper didn't stop him when he entered.

They arrived quickly.

In late spring, as the weather gradually warmed up, the door to Old Lin's house remained open, perhaps because they knew they were coming.

They live in an apartment building with five floors and two households on each floor. There is no elevator, only stairs.

Mr. Lin lives on the first floor, which has a small courtyard that can be seen from the main gate.

Liu Weiguo and Chu Shaoqing took most of the items, while Mu Xiaowan and Liu Caiwei carried the remaining cake and bouquet.

Upon hearing the voices, Old Lin's wife came out to greet them.

"Wei Guo is here! I knew it was you as soon as I heard your voice."

A woman with short, graying hair and black-rimmed glasses emerged. She looked to be in her fifties and had a kind and approachable demeanor.

Liu Weiguo quickly introduced them, "This is Lao Lin's wife, Teacher Han. She is also a professor, the kind with a first-level title, and she is also engaged in research."

Mu Xiaowan immediately showed an expression of admiration.

Those who conduct research in this era dedicate themselves wholeheartedly to their work.

"You've met my sister before. This is Mu Xiaowan, and this is Chu Shaoqing."

"Hello, Teacher Han! I'm sorry to bother you today. I heard from General Manager Liu that it's your birthday today. Happy birthday!" Mu Xiaowan presented the bouquet of flowers to Teacher Han.

Teacher Han looked at the beautiful flowers and liked them very much.

"This is too much trouble. I'm glad you came. There was no need to spend money on these things." The flowers still had a faint fragrance. Teacher Han held the flowers, admiring them.

No woman dislikes flowers.

Buying it yourself just doesn't feel quite right, but if you have a wife who doesn't care about anything and has no sense of romance, she'll be happy even if you just buy her a cake, let alone flowers.

Teacher Han looked at Mu Xiaowan and thought to herself, "No wonder my husband always praises this girl when he comes back."

This child is not only intelligent, but also has high emotional intelligence; a bouquet of flowers was all it took to win her heart.

"Happy birthday, Teacher Han!" Liu Caiwei said, picking up the cake and offering her blessings.

"I'm already happy that you kids are here, why did you buy so much stuff?"

Just then, Old Lin heard the noise and came over. "That's right, Teacher Han is right. Why buy these things?"

Liu Weiguo glanced at Mu Xiaowan and said, "These things were all bought by Boss Mu. She said she wants to become your apprentice today, so it's only right that we give you some things."

"If that's the case, that's great. Let's go inside quickly."
