"Why should you be the only one to take the blame when a project accident occurs?"
"I am the project leader, and...my family background and social connections are relatively simple."
"Although there was an accident, isn't it a bit too harsh to directly expel you from your original unit?"
Xu Qiubai asked questions one after another.
Zhong Nanyi looked at Xu Qiubai helplessly:
"The social environment was a bit sensitive during that period."
This answer involves Xu Qiubai's blind spot. Basically, he is not from this world, and he has no idea how sensitive he was more than ten years ago.
"Uncle, I have another question."
"go ahead."
"Why is there only half of the postcard left? According to your description, didn't you only use one for Aunt Windsor?"
When this question was asked, Zhong Nanyi was obviously not so calm anymore.
His eyes, which were far wiser than those of ordinary people, contained a sense of blame towards Xu Qiubai, as if he thought that Xu Qiubai should not continue to embarrass him on this topic.
"From the time the old man noticed it to the time I officially divorced Ge Zhi, there was still quite a while."
"How long exactly?"
"..."
"Two to three months."
"Can you make half of the postcards for Aunt Windsor in two or three months?"
Xu Qiubai was somewhat surprised. He counted the postcards in the box and found that there were exactly 30 postcards in the box.
Zhong Nanyi remained silent for several minutes, as if he was counting his sins to God.
"Windsor...sent me all the things she wrote to me over the past few years on postcards, and I...wrote back to each one of them."
What a romantic compensation.
No wonder he says he is unfaithful to his family.
In this way, everything matched up, and Xu Qiubai's doubts were mostly dispelled.
"Aunt Windsor didn't come in the end, did she?"
"Well, ever since she found out about my trouble, she felt bad, plus she had some problems too, so she didn't come to China in the end."
"So in that case, you're not actually grounded?"
Zhong Nanyi shook his head.
"It was my own request. The research institute here accepted me and gave me such good conditions. I don't want to repeat the mistakes of the past."
"So that's it."
"but..."
Zhong Nanyi suddenly started a new conversation.
"But what?"
"But the project has reached a critical stage recently and needs to be monitored all the time. I really can't leave here."
"How often do you contact Windsor now?"
"Very rarely. I haven't been able to contact her recently. I have a feeling that something might have happened to her."
"Ok?"
It seems there is a new branch?
"You want to contact her, right?"
"It's not that I want to, it's that... at least I have to make sure she's safe."
"If I help you with this, can you find time to have a good chat with Aunt Ge?"
Xu Qiubai suddenly put forward a condition.
"Do you have a way to find someone abroad?"
"There should be."
Xu Qiubai displayed a very powerful aura.
This time, Zhong Nanyi looked at Xu Qiubai for a full five minutes, still writing and drawing on paper, and it seemed that it was difficult for him to make this decision.
"If you can really do it, I can go and talk to Ge Zhi. But I can't predict how she will react afterwards."
"Let's put the old mess aside for now. Let's just part ways amicably. You've already compensated her a lot."
From the perspective of Xu Qiubai, a man with "three incorrect views", Zhong Nanyi's problems are all superficial.
The most "excessive" thing he did was to send a few more postcards to his miserable white moonlight, mostly out of soft-heartedness and sympathy.
But he has given a lot in this marriage.
In addition, the two of them were not compatible to begin with, so it can be said that they have no regrets that they have been married for more than ten years and have raised a kind and lovely Xiao Mian.
Xu Qiubai decided to help him.
As for what Zhong Nanyi said today, what he meant was that if Xu Qiubai could really help him get things done, he would then tell Ge Zhi again verbatim, so there was no need for Xu Qiubai to say it in advance.
Xu Qiubai also understood his thinking.
Zhong Nanyi went back, and Xu Qiubai was about to meet up with Zhong Xiaomian, but found that she had left early.
She said Hua Zhihuo wanted to see her for something.
"What a coincidence?"
Xu Qiubai shook his head.
He took out his cell phone and planned to meet Yingqi at Jiang Xian's house to talk about Zhong Xiaomian's family affairs and hear what she thought.
But just as Xu Qiubai walked out of the building, he heard someone calling him from behind.
I turned around and saw a staff member in a white coat.
"Mr. Xu Qiubai, please stay——"
"Ok?"
Xu Qiubai was waiting for her there. The woman in the white coat ran out of breath. She finally ran to Xu Qiubai and started:
"Mr. Xu, do you still remember me?"
"This...I don't remember it correctly..."
Xu Qiubai used his eyes to signal her white clothes, white hat and white mask.
"oh oh."
The man in the white coat took off his mask.
"Eh."
Xu Qiubai actually recognized him. Wasn't this the man in the white coat who answered many of his questions the last time he came here?
He is a very nice person and has always been very considerate in helping me find the way.
"You recognize it, right?"
"Yeah, what's up, sis? Do you have something to talk to me about?"
Xu Qiubai smiled at her.
"Yeah, I came here to tell you that our deputy director wants to talk to you. Do you have time?"
"vice director?"
Xu Qiubai recalled the appearance of this deputy director, a direct relative who had no feelings for Hua Zhihuo, and was suspected to be an aunt or an uncle.
"What does she want from me?"
"Well, I'm not sure. It may be related to the test report you submitted."
"Is she anxious?"
"this..."
The expression on the white coat's face was a little subtle, as if she was saying that she had never been able to gauge the deputy director's emotions in all the time she had been working here.
"But I suggest you go..."
"In this building?"
"No, it's inside. I'll take you there if you agree."
Xu Qiubai thought about it carefully and finally decided not to embarrass this sister.
Also, he was somewhat curious about the internal layout of the institute.
"Then let me go."
"Hey, thanks~"
Xu Qiubai was led by her and walked for more than ten minutes before reaching the designated small building.
During this period, Xu Qiubai discovered that this research institute was very different from what he had imagined.
At least it was definitely not as heavily guarded as Xu Qiubai had previously thought.
Basically, whenever Xu Qiubai asked this sister what this building or that building was used for, she would answer.
There were no sentry posts during the period, only a few security guards patrolling.
The sister in the white coat only took Xu Qiubai to the first floor, pointed to a room inside, and told Xu Qiubai that the deputy director was there.
"Thanks, sis."
"Little things~"
Xu Qiubai pushed the door open and walked in according to her instructions.
As soon as he entered, Xu Qiubai felt as if he had traveled through time.
