Afternoon.
Zhong Family's house.
Dong Xuebing, who had accidentally read Zhong Lizhen's diary, did not even dare to stay in the master bedroom. He was afraid of being discovered by Professor Zhong, and when he walked out, he closed the door to the master bedroom. He wiped his sweat and stood still in the living room. He glanced at the small bedroom door. Originally, in his eyes, Professor Zhong was a very traditional woman, a very old-fashioned kind of woman, but who would have thought that Professor Zhong in the diary was also … uh, but thinking about it, it was not strange. She was already in her forties and seemed to have never been in a relationship before. It was normal for her to have needs. Moreover, it was a rigid job that dealt with data and research. It was the same all day long. The mental and psychological pressure was definitely not small. She had to find a way to vent it physically.
I understand.
This is normal.
Dong Xuebing cleared his throat. Not only did he understand, but he also got excited. He kept thinking about Professor Zhong's expression when she was doing that.
Will she scream?
What action did she use?
The more Dong Xuebing thought about it, the more he could not stand it.
Dong Xuebing took a deep breath and went to the bathroom to wash his face with cold water. After that, he calmed down. He is afraid of thinking about everything. Sigh … This is killing me!
No!
I need to find something to distract myself!
Dong Xuebing looked at the washing machine in the mirror and opened the lid. There are lots of clothes inside. To be safe, Dong Xuebing checked if there are any sensitive items. There are only a few skirts, stockings, and white coats.
Let's wash her.
Dong Xuebing picked up a pair of dark stockings and a pair of light stockings and threw them into the basin beside him. After that, he filled the washing machine with washing powder. A few minutes later, the washing machine started to run. Dong Xuebing squatted down and used the soap to lather Professor Zhong's stockings. He rubbed the soap in his hands as stockings cannot be washed in a washing machine.
Dong Xuebing washed them.
Shake them dry.
Hang them up to dry.
Dong Xuebing did not rest and started to clean up her apartment. He wiped the kitchen hood, wiped the windows, swept the floor, and started to clean the place thoroughly. Dong Xuebing did not listen to Zhong Lizhen and moved the machines and instruments to the side. He placed them neatly against the wall and made the living room more spacious and comfortable.
They worked for a full three hours.
Dong Xuebing is satisfied with his hard work.
"Cough, cough, cough …" Professor Zhong coughed.
Dong Xuebing knocked on the door and entered. "You are awake? Would you like some water? "
Zhong Lizhen's hair was a little messy from sleeping. She coughed twice and looked at her watch. "It's already five o 'clock? Give me the thermometer. I think it's about time. "
Dong Xuebing nodded and passed it to her.
After testing the temperature, it really went down. It was 37.5 degrees Celsius, much better.
"Are you hungry? Why don't you rest for a while more? " Dong Xuebing's expression towards Yu Meixia had changed. He kept glancing at her thighs, and the words in the diary kept popping up in his mind.
"I don't want to sleep. Let's go for a walk."
"Ok. Take your time to get off the bed."
Zhong Lizhen sat up and put on her white coat. She put on her high heels and walked out with Dong Xuebing. But when she saw the living room, her face changed. "Didn't I tell you not to touch my things?"
Dong Xuebing replied. "I am very careful, and the machines are not broken."
Zhong Lizhen was still worried. She checked the short man carefully and then heaved a sigh of relief. She then looked at the master bedroom with a gloomy face. "You went in?"
Dong Xuebing quickly lied. "No, no. I had only cleaned up the living room."
Zhong Lizhen looked through the crack of the door, and her expression softened. She sniffed the air. "Why is there the smell of laundry detergent? Did you wash the clothes? "
"Yes. You are very sick, and I don't think you have time to wash your clothes. So, I washed them for you." Dong Xuebing laughed. "Do you feel better after this arrangement?"
Zhong Lizhen replied casually. "It's alright."
But Dong Xuebing could tell from Zhong Lizhen's expression that it's not alright. From her expression, she should feel better after arranging the things neatly. Sometimes, arranging things neatly will affect a person's mood. This is an attitude towards life.
Dong Xuebing and Dong Xuebing sat on the sofa.
Zhong Lizhen paused for a while. "Thank you for your hard work today."
"You had made great contributions to the country's research, and it's my duty to take care of you." Dong Xuebing laughed. "Please don't be mad at me for shouting at you earlier."
Zhong Lizhen replied calmly. "I know you are doing this for my own good. I feel better after taking the medicine and taking a nap."
Dong Xuebing nodded. "You must take care of yourself. If you collapse from exhaustion, you will not be able to continue your work, and no one can replace you."
Ring … ring … ring … ring …
Dong Xuebing's phone rang.
Zhong Lizhen looked at the phone and answered. "Hello, who is this?"
It's a young man. "Professor Zhong, I'm Xiao Zhang. My leader asked me to ask you how is the research base going? Also, your health … "
Zhong Lizhen replied calmly. "I am fine, and I can start work tomorrow. That research project is almost done and only needs some theoretical calculations to support it. I will try my best to complete it today."
"Ok. What about the location of the research base?"
"It's not possible in Beijing. The research is dangerous, and it must be kept confidential. It's best to be in a remote place. The environment is … mountainous."
"It must be mountainous?"
"Not necessarily. I will discuss with my teacher after I collate the data. We need to wait for the theoretical calculations, and there's no rush."
"Ok. Take care of yourself."
"Thank you. I will. That's all."
After hanging up, Zhong Lizhen took a few sips of warm water.
Dong Xuebing, who was sitting beside her, heard the conversation and asked. "Professor Zhong, what research base? The project you are in charge of? "
Zhong Lizhen looks at Dong Xuebing. "It's one of the projects I am in charge of. What's wrong?"
Dong Xuebing replied. "Nothing. I am just asking. Err … why do you need to choose the location personally? It's such an important project. "
Zhong Lizhen nodded. "Yes."
"What is it about?" Dong Xuebing asked.
"It's confidential."
"Huh? Where will this research base belong to? The Chinese Academy of Sciences? Or the Provincial Branch Hospital? "
"It belongs to the Chinese Academy of Sciences. We are in charge of it. Why are you asking? It has nothing to do with you. "Zhong Lizhen also doesn't know why Dong Xuebing is interested in this project.
Dong Xuebing is not good at other things, but he is good at getting political achievements. When he heard the phone call, he knew this project will be successful. He recommended himself. "You should know that I am a government official, and I am working in Zhen Shui County now. Our County's economy and environment are not good, and we can't do anything. But our County is very remote, and it's a very poor county. There are not many people in the county, and the surrounding mountains are huge. Do you think our County is suitable?"
Zhong Lizhen asked. "Your County?"
"That's right. I think it is suitable for your research base. Also, I am working there, and I can help you." Dong Xuebing replied.
Zhong Lizhen kept quiet. "I still have not prepared the data. Although the funds for the research base had been allocated, it will take some time before it can be settled." Dong Xuebing laughed.
Dong Xuebing laughed. "It's fine. Just think of our County."
Zhong Lizhen doesn't understand. "This is our Chinese Academy of Sciences' project. What has it got to do with the grassroots level? Why are you so excited? "
Dong Xuebing cleared his throat and said. "You had just returned to China and had been doing research. You might not know the situation at the grassroots level. Even if you are from the Chinese Academy of Sciences, as long as you set up your research in our County, it will be related to the grassroots level. You all will not coordinate with us, and who will you look for? You must look for our grassroots leaders to coordinate with them. Land? Building site? It's all our business. Moreover, as an experimental base directly under the Chinese Academy of Sciences, your research projects will definitely not be small. If there are really breakthrough results, our county will definitely benefit from it. Moreover, it will also promote the development of our county's technology industry. In the end, it might even increase our county's reputation, just like Jiuquan. This will be a great benefit. Forget it. To put it bluntly, this is all political achievements.
Zhong Lizhen: "… …"
Dong Xuebing added. "Of course, I am not doing this for myself. I am doing this for the people in our County. I also hope everyone can live a good life and get rid of the label of a poor County."
Zhong Lizhen looks at Dong Xuebing. "You are in charge of technology?"
Dong Xuebing paused for a second. "No. But if you can help me get this location, I will go back and arrange for the technology department!" Dong Xuebing does not want this credit to fall into someone else's hands. He must get it himself.
Zhong Lizhen: "… …"
Dong Xuebing asked. "Can you tell me what to do?"
Zhong Lizhen hesitated for a second. "I will ask for you when we decide on the location in a few days."
"Do you think it's possible?"
"I am the main person in charge of this project. If your county really meets the requirements, I will recommend it. The higher-ups will definitely consider it, but I don't know if it will be approved. I am a researcher, and I can only provide the location and suitable environment based on the data. I don't have the final say in the decision."
Dong Xuebing laughed. "It's fine. Thank you in advance."
"Don't thank me so quickly. I can't guarantee it will work."
