Afterwards, Lu Huai and sent Shen Li to the laboratory downstairs of the museum.
He kept his pace, looked at the time, then rubbed Shen Li's hair, and said with a smile:
"Sure enough, it's a shortcut, and I'm not too late."
Shen Li: "..."
So this man had made a plan long ago, and used the time vacated by walking the path to do other things.
Lu Huaiyu met her eyes, thought for a moment, seemed to understand something, slipped his palm, held the side of her face, pressed his thumb lightly on her lips, and said with a low smile:
"I paid attention to it just now, and no one should see it."
Shen Li: "...I don't—"
"Yo, Huai Yu?"
A low and smiling voice came.
Lu Huaiyu paused and raised his eyes.
Shen Li also turned around to look at the same time, and saw a middle-aged man who looked to be in his forties and was slightly fat walking towards this side.
The sky was dark, but Shen Li looked at him with familiarity.
Lu Huaiyu quickly answered her doubts.
"Dean Wu."
The middle-aged man laughed, his eyes fell on Shen Li, and he couldn't help but click his tongue.
"The number of times you come to the museum is almost more than your visit to our courtyard?"
Shen Li immediately understood the identity of this person: Wu Lin, the dean of Xijing University School of Economics and Management.
Lu Huaiyu didn't seem to care about his teasing, and his eyes fell on the thermos in his hand:
"Are you here to deliver soup to Professor Sun again?"
Professor Sun Yi of the Academy of Fine Arts is Wu Lin's wife.
Wu Lin snorted lightly.
"Her team is busy with a new research project recently, and they don't even have time to eat. If I don't come, she probably will forget to eat again."
Speaking of this, he was full of resentment.
"These people in the museum don't know what's going on, and they are busier than each other all day long!"
Lu Huai and Wen Yan nodded in agreement:
"What you said is that they are very busy."
Shen Li: "..."
Hearing Lu Huai's agreement, Wu Lin remembered that this kid also found a girlfriend in a zoo, and couldn't help but feel a little sympathetic, and wanted to talk to him all of a sudden.
"Exactly! Tell me, what are they busy with all day long? It's good to go out early and return home late. Sometimes they even stay in the laboratory for several days without even thinking about going home!"
"Is the project that important? Is the experiment that important?"
"It's not that you are not allowed to do research, but you can't put all your time and energy on it? Am I not busy?"
Lu Huaiyu nodded with a light smile while listening.
Shen Li listened silently at the side.
Although I know that Dean Wu is complaining about Professor Sun, I still have an inexplicable feeling of being scolded...
Dean Wu looked at the two people who were standing together holding hands, and couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
"Hey! Huaiyu, you're doing well now, and you'll know later, when you're with physics people like them, that's really—"
Before he could finish speaking, his cell phone rang suddenly.
Seeing the caller ID, he immediately picked it up, and his voice softened immediately:
"Hello? Hey, I'm here. I'm here. It's downstairs. Okay, okay, wait for me and go up immediately."
With that said, he hung up the phone.
"Huaiyu, I'll go up first. Professor Sun hasn't eaten yet. Being hungry for a long time is bad for your stomach."
Lu Huai smiled and said:
"good."
Wu Lin carried the thermos bucket and hurried to the laboratory building without looking back.
Shen Li: "..."
Looking at the back, Shen Li was silent for a moment, and said:
"So what is Dean Wu's standpoint for criticizing you for coming to the Institute too many times?"
"That's not criticism."
Lu Huaiyu smiled slightly.
"It's teaching."
"The dean teaches by precepts and deeds. As a student, you should learn a little bit."
Shen Li: "..."
…
In the next few days, Shen Li was indeed busy.
Josie has been discussing with her about Baicheng Fashion Week, Shen Li thought for a long time, and finally agreed to go.
The time is set for March 22.
So during this period, most of her energy
All on the last experiment.
Fortunately, everything went well and her dissertation was successfully completed.
This morning, Shen Li accompanied Shen Zhijin to have breakfast.
"Dad, I sent the paper to your email address. When will you be free, can you help me take a look?"
Shen Zhijin seemed a little surprised:
"So fast?"
According to his previous estimate, her thesis should be completed in a week.
Shen Li took a sip of milk:
"Didn't I tell you before that Josie has been inviting me to Baicheng Fashion Week? I agreed with him to come the day after tomorrow."
"the day after tomorrow?"
"yes."
Shen Zhijin frowned slightly.
"Who else will go with you besides you?"
Originally, he planned to accompany Shen Li to Baicheng, but in the next few days he was going to Haicheng for a business trip, and it was difficult to cancel.
Shen Li knew his arrangement, and of course understood what he was thinking.
"There's also Josie, and two executives from G&S China." Shen Li said, "I'll be with them on the flight at 9:50 in the morning the day after tomorrow. Amian is also invited this time, but his itinerary and There's a bit of a conflict here, so it's over on our last day."
She thought about it.
"By the way, there is also Tang Wei, she and Fengmian are both G&S brand ambassadors."
Tang Wei has been on the set recently, and she even asked for leave for this purpose. She and Lin Fengmian were on a different flight on the same day.
Shen Zhijin's brows relaxed, although he still regretted not being able to accompany her, but he was much more at ease when someone was with her.
"Okay. I'll read your paper later."
With that said, Shen Zhijin got up and went to the study.
After a few minutes, he came out with an extra key in his hand.
He handed the key to Shen Li.
"I have a permanent house in Baicheng, you can go there first when you arrive."
Shen Li froze for a moment, then took it with a smile.
"Thank you, Dad."
In the past, Shen Zhijin spent more than half of the year in Baicheng.
He returned to China last year, took the lead as the initiator, and cooperated with Xijing University and Fei Nuo Laboratory to do a project, so he stayed in China for a while.
And after recognizing Shen Li, he started to shift the focus of his work from Baicheng to Beijing, so as to spend more time with her.
It's just a pity that I can't go there with her this time.
He rubbed Shen Li's head:
"I'll try my best to end my work here as soon as possible and go to Baicheng to accompany you. In addition, Carol is also there recently. If you have anything to do, you can ask him for help first."
Shen Li nodded:
"good."
…
In the evening, Shen Li went to Rongyue Mansion.
Tomorrow morning, I will fly to Baibai City, and this time I will stay there for more than a week, so I specially come here to have a meal and talk to him about it.
Shen Li went directly to the top floor and pressed the password to enter.
The living room is quiet.
"Second brother?"
She yelled, but no one answered.
At this time... he should have woken up, right
With that in mind, she came to the door of the master bedroom and knocked on the door.
"Second brother?"
After a while, when she was about to knock again, the door was finally opened.
He seemed to have just taken a shower, his bathrobe was loosely worn on his body, his black hair was half wet, a little messy, slightly covering his deep eyebrows and eyes.
A drop of water dripped and hit his straight collarbone, and then slowly slid into the bathrobe, which could not be seen.
He stared at her fixedly, his voice was still a bit lazy and hoarse just after waking up.
"… Ali?"
6:00 p.m.
