CH 18.2

Sorry for the late updates and inconvenience. I was busy because of my studies. I will try to upload regularly. I have shifted my blog to WordPress so previous links of chapters are not working I guess. Previous Chapters are available here. Moreover, I don’t know much about WordPress Features, so My blog is still under construction.

At this moment, Xu Yehua opened the door and walked in: ” Professor Zhu? ”

Zhu Zhengqing then remembered the original purpose of his visit: ” By the way, in order to celebrate winning the lawsuit, the people in our project team decided to go out to have a party dinner and go to the seafood buffet on Nanmen Street. Professor Meng, You helped us so much, We just want to invite you to go with us to show our gratitude.”

Meng Zezhi subconsciously refused: ” You are being too polite, it’s just a matter of little effort. . .”

Xu Yehua quickly said, ” For Professor Meng, it may be just a matter of effort, but for us, it is no less than saving our entire project team. Professor Meng is just going with us to have some relaxation, Anyway staying in the laboratory all day is so boring, What do you think? ”

When he insisted on this extent, Meng Zezhi glanced at Zhu Zhengqing and nodded: ” then it’s better to be respectful.”

Zhu Zhengqing’s mood couldn’t help but jump by two points. He said: ” If you have agreed, let’s set off now. After a while, the rush hours will be off and traffic jams will be easy.”

” Okay.” Meng Zezhi replied, ” Then I will clean up the laboratory first.”

” Okay.”‘

The laboratory equipment and medicines were arranged in order, the door of the laboratory was locked bu him and the group of three people went directly to the elevator.

Xu Yehua was on the left, Meng Zezhi was on the right, and Zhu Zhengqing was in the center.

On the fourth floor, the elevator door opened, facing a group of decorators holding the tools, the other side smiled politely and then squeezed in, Zhu Zhengqing backed away with the crowd.

When the elevator door was closed, the mobile phone of the person in front accidentally fell to the ground, and the person bent over to pick it up subconsciously.

His butt pushed on Zhu Zhengqing’s thighs, and probably because of his slender body

Zhu Zhengqing couldn’t standstill and fell backward and his back hit the wall of flesh.

” Sorry, sorry. . .” The man picked up the phone, reacted, and apologized.

“It’s okay.” Zhu Zhengqing moved forward, stood firm, and turned around to face a familiar face.

Vaguely, he smelled a familiar aroma of medicine.

Meng Zhezhi’s voice came from his ear: ” You Okay? ”

Regardless of the other things, Zhu Zhengqing’s mood become more and more complicated. He spoked and squeezed out two words: ” Yes, okay.”

Then slowly turned back.

Meng Zhezhi’s eyes drooped, rubbing his fingers, thinking casually,

His waist is really thin.

Wordless all the way, when they got there, the other colleagues had already arrived.

Since it’s a celebration banquet, the place set must be no different. This seafood buffet is considered a relatively high-end restaurant. Group purchases of 480 people, crabs, geoduck, golden shells, Argentine red prawns, and sashimi are also on site. All are cooked well and look pretty good too.

The group directly asked for a private room. Considering that they were taking medicine, Meng Zezhi didn’t touch any raw or cold food. He only needed some crab legs, char-grilled oysters, and apple juice for drinks.

As for other people’s drinks, it is naturally white wine.

” Come here, lets first wish the professor a drink. I think the professor stayed abroad, I am afraid he has not drunk the white bar much.”

Zhu Zhengqing’s eyes were dim as if he had made up his mind. He did not hesitate to pick up a glass of wine of jumbo size and drank it with his head up.

The spicy wine flowed up his head along the throat, irritating his eyes and bringing a little moisture into them.

” Okay,” After several months of hard work and depression finally they won the lawsuit, it was a rare excitement and everyone roared: ” One More Cup.”

After five or six cups of wine, Zhu Zhengqing’s face got a faint blush and the whole person looks drunk.

Meng Zezhi looked into his eyes and wanted to dissuade him, but he couldn’t speak.

He doesn’t have that right.

After a round of drinking, the man in glasses took two mouthfuls of seafood porridge and barely suppressed his drunkenness. Then he got up from his seat picked up his glass and walked towards Meng Zezhi: ” Professor Meng–”

Meng Zezhi stood up immediately.

” Professor Meng, I am really sorry. I was the one who misunderstood you before in the laboratory. Please don’t take it seriously.”

He was talking about falsely accusing Meng Zezhi of stealing their research results in front of everyone he was in the laboratory.

Meng Zezhi didn’t feel angry. Dragon got caught in a shrimp scene in the shallow water and a phoenix without feathers is worse than a chicken.

It’s just human nature.

What’s more, he still has to stay in the laboratory. At the moment so many people are watching, the man with glasses apologizes so he can just ignore him.

Therefore, he can only say politely: ” It is all past now, but fortunately the matter has been satisfactorily resolved, isn’t it.”

” I am ashamed. . .” the man with glasses apologized: ” That’s why I will punish myself three drinks, it would be an apology to Professor Meng.”

As he said, he raised his cup of wine to his mouth and drank it all in one swoop.

After three cups of wine, the man in glasses panted roughly and said, ” I would offer Professor Meng a cup of wine. If it weren’t for you, how could we sit here and celebrate the feast happily now.”

Hearing these words, everyone responded in response ” We also offer Professor Meng a cup of wine.”

” Everyone is polite.” Meng Zezhi picked up the apple juice on the table and said, “it’s just that I am in poor health recently, and the doctor told me not to drink…”

” Professor Meng, it is fine.” Everyone didn’t mind.

After another glass of wine, the man with glasses continued to wander among the people. Meng Zezhi only had one thing to resolve in his mind and that was the food in his bowl.

Compared with the lively atmosphere around him, he seemed a little out of place.

Seeing this scene, Zhu Zhengqing couldn’t help but drank two more glasses of wine.

It was more than nine o clock when they came out of the restaurant.

Xu Yehua and others took out their mobile phones one after another and asked drivers to drive on their behalf or called family members to pick them up.

Meng Zezhi reached out from the hand of the man in the glasses to help Zhu Zhengqing, who was drunk, stepped on soft steps and plunged directly into his arms.

Meng Zezhi held the person in his arms, raised his head, and said to Xu Yehua and others: ” You go first, I will send Professor Zhu back in a while. ”

Xu Yehua and the others did not suspect him and said, ” Then trouble Professor Meng.”

Bearcub: O mi god!! Here come the sweet moments. hehe.
