Xu Yi saw that she really wanted to help, so he rubbed his eyebrows and stood in front of the girl and said seriously: "My mother just has a minor cold, there's really no need to make so much trouble."
He paused and explained, "I'm not being polite to you."
Qiao Nian made eye contact with him and saw the seriousness in his eyes. She turned her head away and said nothing more. She only said, "Then you don't have to come to the laboratory these few days. I will ask the dean for leave for you. You stay at home and accompany your aunt."
Xu Yi looked at her thin shoulders and neck, knowing that she had always wanted to break through that complicated and difficult experiment. He opened his mouth and was about to say that he could hold on a little longer.
Qiao Nian turned around as if she had sensed something, and saw that he was still there. She looked at him in surprise, then thought, "Wait for me."
She went to the locker and took out the shoulder bag she carried with her and handed over a clear glass bottle that contained seven or eight unbranded white pills.
Qiao Nian handed the glass bottle over: "This is for you, please help me pass it to my aunt."
Xu Yi reached out and took it: "This is..."
"Health supplements." The girl said casually: "Just let Auntie take one pill a month. There's not much. I'll try to give her more next time."
Xu Yi remembered something and moved his lips.
Qiao Nian rushed ahead of him and said, "You have helped me so much. If you are still arguing with me even for such a small gift, I will find someone else to help."
Xu Yi tightly clenched the glass bottle in his hand, unable to control his emotions, as he watched her casually put the shoulder bag back.
Actually, I really want to say that you helped me a lot in the beginning. It was you who pulled me out of the dark abyss.
However, he himself was not good at expressing himself and could not speak it out.
In the end, Xu Yi just carefully put away the glass bottle that Qiao Nian gave him, and said to her with pure stubbornness in his eyes: "Three days. I will stay at home to take care of my mother for three days, and I will come to the laboratory on time after three days."
"good."
Qiao Nian had already sat in front of the computer again, recording the data in the notebook on the computer. Hearing this, he raised his chin slightly, but his eyes did not move away from the computer.
Xu Yi looked at her who was concentrating on her work and didn't bother her anymore. He took his things and tiptoed out.
He opened the door of the laboratory and went out to see a man leaning against the side of the corridor, looking down at his phone.
The man was wearing a black windbreaker with a thin high-necked sweater of the same color underneath. His hair was messy and his lips were bright red.
It was obvious that he had just rushed back from a trip and had not had time to rest.
The other person seemed to be aware of his gaze and raised his head, meeting his gaze head-on. That face was as disastrous as Qiao Nian's.
Ye Wangchuan.
The man's name appeared in Xu Yi's mind. He nodded and greeted the other party expressionlessly, then walked away with his things without looking back.
Ye Wangchuan looked at his back as he left, not knowing what he was thinking about. There was a deep meaning in his eyes, and he seemed a little annoyed, but he didn't seem to have any other emotions. He just put his hands in his pockets, looked at the closed laboratory door again, and continued to lean against the wall quietly waiting for the people inside to finish their work and come out.
**
Qiao Nian didn't know that the person who sent her a message in the morning asking her if she was still angry was already standing in the corridor outside the laboratory waiting for her in the afternoon.
She recorded the experimental results at her own pace, completed the experiment again by herself, and recorded the results again.
