“Little Yi, this isn’t a matter of whether you destroy it or not. There’s nobody who will do it.” Peng Xingguo said with difficulty.
“Your current career is developing quite well. If you make a mistake, it will have a big impact on the two of you.”
“Why isn’t this allowed?” Zhang Shumin said, “Little Yi already said that the medicine will be destroyed on the spot. What could go wrong? I think you’re afraid that she’ll take the fall for him.”
“Why are you dragging her into this again? I didn’t mean it that way.”
“Then get it done.” Zhang Shumin said. “Qingyan’s my student, and she’s just like my granddaughter. Don’t try to weasel out of it.”
“Then I’ll give it a try.”
Peng Xingguo looked at Lin Yi. “Is it urgent? If it’s not urgent, I’ll find some time to bring you guys over.”
Before Lin Yi could say anything, Zhang Shumin interrupted, “What do you mean it’s not urgent? Little Yi and the others aren’t in class anymore and they came here in a hurry. It must be urgent. Go do it now.”
Seeing the old couple bickering, Lin Yi and Ji Qingyan sat quietly at the side. Neither of them dared interrupt.
“The two kids are still here. Keep your voice down. You’re already so old. Aren’t you afraid of being laughed at?”
“If they’re not embarrassed, then what’s there for you to be embarrassed about?”
“Alright, alright. Let’s not talk about this anymore,” Peng Xingguo said.
“I’ll make a call and ask if she’s at the hospital.”
Peng Xingguo held his phone in one hand and flipped through his contact list with the other. He found a person named Zhao Dongmei and turned on the public display to show his innocence.
“Dong… Director Zhao, this is Old Peng.”
“Senior Brother, I have your phone number. We’ve known each other for so many years, why are you still being so polite?”
Peng Xingguo felt a little embarrassed by her calling him senior brother. He chuckled a few times to cover up his embarrassment.
“Um, are you busy now?”
Peng Xingguo didn’t directly state his purpose and was polite first.
“There’s a meeting later which I’m preparing the materials for. Senior Brother, if you have something to say, just say it. Don’t be so formal.”
“It’s nothing. I have a student who wants to ask you some questions about Huaxian medicine. Since you have something to do, let’s make an appointment to meet tomorrow.”
“Why push it to tomorrow? This is not an important meeting, so I just won’t go.” Zhao Dongmei said, “Senior Brother, bring your guys over. I’ll wait for you in the office.”
This sentence, “I’ll wait for you in the office”, made the polite atmosphere become awkward and stuffy.
“That’s not good. This isn’t anything urgent. You go to the meeting first and don’t delay your matters.” Peng Xingguo said with a smile, “We’ll come over tomorrow.”
“Senior Brother, you think I don’t know your character? You don’t easily ask for help. If you are calling me now, it must be for something important. Come over.”
“Okay, I’ll bring my group over now.”
“Okay.”
After hanging up, Peng Xingguo pretended to be calm. “She’s in the office. I’ll bring Yanyan and Little Yi over.”
“Hurry up.”
Lin Yi and Ji Qingyan looked at each other and felt a deep sense of guilt. Did they just push Teacher Peng into his lover’s arms?
Peng Xingguo got up and went to the bedroom to change his clothes. He went out with Lin Yi and Ji Qingyan and drove the Maserati towards Zhonghai Huaxia Medical Hospital.
“Teacher Peng, will Teacher Zhang force you to sleep on the couch tonight because of this?” Lin Yi asked with a smile as they drove.
“Are you kidding me?” Peng Xingguo said nonchalantly. “I just gave her some face because you guys were there. She wouldn’t dare to say anything if there was no one else at home.”
Ji Qingyan smiled as she learned forward.
“Teacher Peng, what’s the deal with that deputy director? Is she really Teacher Zhang’s love rival?”
“She’s not really a love rival. When I was young, she washed my clothes a few times and gave me instant noodles a few times. It wasn’t a big deal. Your Teacher Zhang just grabbed onto this matter and didn’t let it go.”
“That’s it? That’s not a big deal.”
“Maybe it’s because the environment was different.” Peng Xingguo said.
“Back then, instant noodles were a precious item. Even so, she gave me a whole box of it. It’d be like giving a pig to me right now.” Peng Xingguo said.
“I understand now that you put it that way.”
“Plus, we’re both born in the year of the horse. She gave me a wooden horse sculpture similar to one she owned. Your Teacher Zhang still remembers that after all these years.” Peng Xingguo said.
“That’s not right,” Lin Yi said. “If you’re both born in the year of the horse, and you’re already retired. Why is your junior sister still the deputy director?”
Schools were different from hospitals.
Professors in schools could be hired back if their performance was outstanding, just like Zhang Shumin was.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t have instructed Ji Qingyan during her doctorate studies.
However, a hospital was different. Due to the intensity of the work and the competition for jobs, very few people were ever rehired.
“She’s young, right? Even though they share the same zodiac sign, it doesn’t mean that they’re the same age.”
Lin Yi and Ji Qingyan looked at each other in the rearview mirror and thought of an extremely terrifying possibility.
“She’s not younger than you by ten years, right?”
“Ho ho ho…” Peng Xingguo proudly smiled, “Try two decades.”
“Damn! Teacher Peng is awesome!”
At this moment, the way Lin Yi looked at Peng Xingguo changed. This man was the leader of all scumbags!
He had to pour tea for the leader. contemporary romance
“So much younger.” Ji Qingyan suddenly realized. “No wonder Teacher Zhang was so aggitated.”
“She always had that temper. In reality, nothing happened between us.” Peng Xingguo said. “At that time, I was already in my forties, and this senior was about to go to university. How could she do such a thing? This is such an embarrassing thought.”
Ji Qingyan covered her mouth and laughed lightly. “Maybe Teacher Zhang was too sensitive.”
“Yes, yes, yes, she was too sensitive.” Peng Xingguo said. “Go back and talk to her. She’s already an adult, and she won’t let go of this matter. Isn’t it embarrassing?”
This was true, but Lin Yi was still in awe of Peng Xingguo.
He didn’t know if he would be able to receive such treatment when he was in his forties.
It was exciting just thinking about it.
Soon, the three of them drove to Zhonghai Huaxia Medical Hospital.
They took the elevator to the director’s office.
In the office sat a middle-aged woman in her fifties. She had taken off her white coat and was wearing a knitted top and linen embroidered pants.
The middle-aged woman wasn’t ugly. She was even a little beautiful as her every move was elegant.
“Senior Bro, you’re here.”
Seeing that Peng Xingguo had brought someone in, Zhao Dongmei stood up to welcome him.
“Let me introduce her to you. Her name is Ji Qingyan, a student of our university. This is her boyfriend, Lin Yi.”
“This is my junior sister, Zhao Dongmei. You can call her director Zhao.”
“Hello, Director Zhao.”
“You are my Senior Brother’s students, so you can be considered my students. Don’t call me director, just call me Teacher Zhao.”
“Teacher Zhao, you are so beautiful. You don’t look like a fifty-something-year-old person at all. At first glance, you look like you could be Teacher Peng’s partner.” Lin Yi said with a smile.
