Chapter 85 Chapter 85 Indifference

Early the next morning, as soon as he woke up, he called Chen Qiudi's house, but there was no one in her house.So he went to the laboratory restlessly.He first went to Xu Mei and told her about Jiang Gu's leave. When Xu Mei heard that Bai Guo had bowel cancer at a young age, she looked very sorry. She asked Wu Xiaotian to tell Jiang Gu that he should also pay attention to his health, so that he would not be dragged down by then.Then she said: "Jiang Gu usually doesn't work very hard in experiments. He always sits in front of the computer and surfs the Internet all day long. Now that his wife has an accident, he is too busy. The experiment must be delayed again. You You know, there are a lot of people in our lab, if I favor anyone, the situation will be difficult to manage."

She usually speaks English in the laboratory, but these words were spoken to Wu Xiaotian in Chinese to show affection.She paused for a while and then said: "Well, you tell Jiang Gu to take good care of his wife, don't worry, I will still pay him the salary for December, if he can't come to work as usual in January next year, Then I will stop his salary here, and I will leave him his position for two months. Starting from March, he has to change the laboratory, and we will recruit another person here. His project cannot be put on hold Well, I'm still counting on him to produce results, so that I can apply for Grant with more weight, who knows..."

Wu Xiaotian said: "If this is the case, the pressure on Jiang Gu will be too great. In just a few days, he has already lost a lot of weight." Xu Mei sighed and said, "The ancients said: Dong Zige, Xia Ziqiu. The so-called preparedness. I also blame Jiang Gu himself for being too lazy. The new project has no clue at all! Now that we are in trouble, it is useless to be anxious." She fiddled with her glasses and said, "Also, I've read your application for Fellowship. The listed materials are not sufficient, and the background is not compelling. You'd better take the time to write it again and include the plan in it."

When Wu Xiaotian left Xu Mei's office, he was secretly worried for Jiang Gu. He knew that Jiang Gu would definitely put most of his energy on Bai Guo in the next three months. According to Xu Mei's intention, he would either work harder in the lab to give Xu Mei a good impression, or So he had to find another way out while caring for Bai Guo wholeheartedly.Both prospects are undoubtedly difficult for him.But Wu Xiaotian also understands Xu Mei's approach, because no boss wants his subordinates to be idlers, which will increase their expenses.One of the reasons why Xu Mei asked Wu Xiaotian to apply for Fellowship was to reduce the pressure on laboratory funding.Scientific research units are not charities after all.But if Xu Mei really wanted to let Jiang Gu go, then objectively, it would be worse for Jiang Gu.

Because of Chen Qiudi's absence and Jiang Gu's matter, Wu Xiaotian seemed absent-minded when doing experiments all day.He originally wanted to call Jiang Gu, but was worried that if he told him what Xu Mei said, it would increase his psychological pressure, so he might as well wait until Bai Guo's illness improved a little before telling him these things. Stacy asked him what happened to Jiang Gu?Wu Xiaotian told her about Ginkgo's illness. Stacy's eyes widened in surprise, and she said, "Impossible, it's absolutely impossible! How could Bai have cancer! She looks so healthy and sweet!"

After returning home at night, the first thing Wu Xiaotian did was to call Chen Qiudi's home.This time it was her mother who answered the call. He struggled to understand her mother's Mandarin with a strong Hokkien accent, to the effect that Chen Qiudi didn't listen to her very much. He got into a fight with her this morning and now ran away in a fit of anger. Went to the home of her former classmates in junior high school. Wu Xiaotian hurriedly asked her for the phone number of Chen Qiudi's home, but she refused and said she didn't know.Finally she asked Wu Xiaotian: "Who are you?"

Wu Xiaotian said: "If Xiaodi comes back, tell her that I am the one who eats with her every day." No one knew Chen Qiudi's temper better than him, so he was not surprised that she ran away from home in a fit of anger, but what caused her to have trouble with her mother?However childish she was, she could not offend her mother during the mourning period of her father's recent death.Although Chen Qiudi told him before that the relationship between her and her mother was very loose and normal, but he felt that she was still a little ignorant this time. So he immediately sent an E-mail to Chen Qiudi, asking her to call him immediately after receiving the letter.

He randomly ordered two packs of instant noodles and ate them, then lay on the sofa and waited for Chen Qiudi's call.He was sure that Chen Qiudi hadn't received his call for two days, and she would definitely call him.Therefore, not only did he not dare to surf the Internet, he even had to hold a microphone in his hand when he went to the bathroom. He watched a funny soap opera restlessly and fell asleep without knowing it.Suddenly he heard a piercing phone ringing, he immediately sat up like a conditioned reflex, and grabbed the receiver. He glanced at the TV and found that it was past eleven o'clock. He didn't expect that more than two hours had passed after such a sleep.

The call was from Jiang Gu, asking him about asking Xu Mei for leave. Wu Xiaotian thought for a while, and finally decided to tell him what Xu Mei said.Wu Xiaotian said: "You don't have to worry about the laboratory this month. You'd better take time to talk to Xu Mei again at the end of the month, and tell her your thoughts in detail. I think as long as you make some achievements Come on, she can't be cruel. Now you take care of Bai Guo first, as long as she is a good person, it's no big deal!" Jiang Gu said: "Today I discussed with Bai Guo, she wants to invite her parents to visit her relatives, and take care of her for a while. I didn't want her parents to know about her, but I couldn't persuade her, so I had to obey her." .”

Wu Xiaotian said: "Does she have the energy to prepare invitation materials now?" Jiang Gu said: "I want to send the invitation in my name." Wu Xiaotian pondered for a while and said: "That's fine, if her parents are here, she can also have a little more spiritual comfort. Parents are parents after all!"
