Walking back to the hotel with heavy steps, Qiao Ruowei lay on the sofa as soon as she entered the door.

She was so tired that she couldn't do it, and her heart was more tired than her physical tiredness.

Open the phone and take a look, the WeChat has not been replied to, does Qi Mucheng really think that the recipe was leaked to Fu Ye by her?

Qiao Ruowei didn't believe that a person as smart as Qi Mucheng could be deceived by such inferior means.

She looked at the chat interface, hesitated for a long time, and said, "What are you doing now?" ”

However...... After thinking about it, I deleted it.

At this time, Qi Mucheng should be asleep.

Qiao Ruowei endured the feeling of soreness all over her body and got up and walked to the bathroom, and after taking a shower, she fell directly on the bed and fell asleep.

The next day, at around three o'clock in the morning, Qiao Ruowei was woken up by the ringing of her mobile phone.

She had only slept for less than three hours, her brain was dizzy and very uncomfortable, she raised her hand and fumbled on the bedside table to pick up her mobile phone, and her tone was a little impatient when she answered the phone: "Who?" ”

"Hello Dr. Qiao, I am a news reporter from the Imperial Capital Daily, I would like to interview you......"

Directly pressed and hung up, she frowned and put the phone back, but as soon as she closed her eyes, the phone began to quarrel again.

Simply so! These people still don't let people sleep!

Qiao Ruowei was angry, turned over and sat up from the bed, picked up her mobile phone and was furious: "Are you all finished, didn't Fu Ye say that I did this, then call him to interview him, I don't know anything at all!" ”

Overworked every day for a week, worked diligently under the pressure of a mountain every day, but was framed as a thief instead, and even now, even the people who slept at midnight were unwilling to give it to her!

She couldn't help but explode!

"If you are ......"

His voice was still low, but it was much softer than usual.

Qiao Ruoyu reacted almost instantly, who was the person on the other end of the phone.

"Qi Mucheng...... Why are you calling me at this point? ”

Reading the man's name, her voice was astringent, and she was not without grievances in her heart.

Qi Mucheng's voice was also very tired: "I've been busy these days, I just saw the WeChat you sent me, I didn't want to wake you up, but I just ...... Miss you. ”

I miss you and want to hear your voice.

Qi Mucheng didn't say anything in the second half of the sentence, Qiao Ruoyu's heart softened, holding the phone and not knowing what to say.

At three o'clock in the morning, sitting in a high-rise room in the hotel, the world was so quiet that only the sound of her breathing could be heard.

After waiting for a long time, she said slowly: "I didn't do that. ”

"yes, I know."

Qiao Ruowei was stunned, she didn't even have a word of explanation, did Qi Mucheng believe her words?

The fingers holding the mobile phone tightened, and Qiao Ruoyu said, "But what are you going to do about this matter?" ”

Qi Mucheng said: "I called you to tell you that please don't worry about this matter for the time being, I will take care of it." ”

Hearing him say this, Qiao Ruowei was also relieved.

Qi Mucheng has always done what she says, she doesn't have to ask too much, even if the world says she is a liar, as long as Qi Mucheng believes her, then all gossip will not hit her.

Thinking of this, Qiao Ruowei suddenly froze.

When did she start to trust this man so much?

Clearly...... At the beginning, she was still so wary of Qi Mucheng, and even when she went to live at his house, she had to check the door lock several times at night.

When did she rely on Qi Mucheng? Is it time for earthquake relief?

Or was it that earlier, when he faced everyone's doubts, he surrounded her behind him?

Or was it that time in the fire, he desperately rushed into the raging flames to save her?

The more she thought about it, the more dazed Qiao Ruowei became, she suddenly found that along the way, she and Qi Mucheng had experienced too much, and every critical moment, he didn't leave her alone.

"Why did you suddenly stop talking? Asleep? ”

When she heard this, she swallowed like a fish, her nose was sour, and she endured it for a long time before she couldn't help crying and said, "No, I was thinking about things just now." ”

Qi Mucheng is not stupid, as soon as she heard Qiao Ruoyu's voice, she knew that she was going to cry, it was the first time she had experienced such a big difficulty since she was a child, Qi Mucheng was also exhausted, holding his mobile phone, he sighed lightly and said: "Don't think about it, don't worry, I can handle it." ”

After calming down her mood for a while, at the end, Qiao Ruoyu asked, "Then what are you going to do?" ”

“…… I can't tell you for the time being, anyway, you need to know, stay in the southwest region, if you can develop a vaccine formula for the virus, it is the best, if you really can't do it, it doesn't matter, you know? ”

"yes, I see."

Qi Mucheng pursed his lips, he hadn't seen her for so many days, and now when he heard her so well-behaved voice, he really wanted to pinch that pink face.

The call was quiet again, Qiao Ruowei held the mobile phone, listened closely to his even breathing, gradually, her eyelids became heavier and heavier, and finally she couldn't help but fall asleep sleepy......

Early in the morning of the second day.

went to the research institute, Qiao Ruowei has always been the earliest one.

It wasn't until half past eight that the other colleagues arrived one after another.

Meng Xiang walked up to Qiao Ruoyu and saw that she was writing a research report with a serious face, and he hesitated and didn't know whether to move forward.

However, Qiao Ruowei didn't raise her head, still staring at the experiment report in her hand, and suddenly asked, "What's the matter, is there something wrong?" ”

Meng Xiang was startled by her sudden voice, and secretly thought, I didn't make a sound when I walked over just now, did this Doctor Qiao have eyes behind his back, how did he know that he was standing behind her?

I was surprised in my heart, but Meng Xiang still remembered the matter, and said cautiously: "Hehe, Doctor Qiao, Dean Zheng called you over just now, saying that he had something important to tell you." ”

Qiao Ruoyu nodded when she heard this, put down the document in her hand and said hello.

Meng Xiang didn't leave much, he still had a bunch of work in his hands to finish, so he said hello to Qiao Ruoyu and left.

Qiao Ruowei didn't waste too much time, and walked out of the laboratory less than a minute after Meng Xiang left.

Outside the door of the Dean's office.

Qiao Ruoyu raised her hand and knocked on the door.

"Enter."

Compared with Dean Zheng's kind attitude when Qiao Ruowei came on the first day, Dean Zheng at this time had a straight face, and his eyes were also very cold when he looked at Qiao Ruoyu.

Qiao Ruoyu knew that it was mostly because of the news released by Fu Ye.

Sitting opposite the dean with an unchanged face, Qiao Ruowei asked, "Dean Zheng, do you have anything to do with me?" ”

Dean Zheng nodded, took out a document from the drawer and handed it to Qiao Ruowei, coughed before saying, "What about this confidential document, I hope Dr. Qiao can sign it, this is also taking into account the interests of the company, and it is also explained by the above to sign." “

Qiao Ruowei's face was slightly cold, and other people in the company came to participate in the project, and no one had signed this document, of course, she hadn't signed it before.

It is estimated that it is also because of the news exposed by Fu Ye, worried that she will do something to "sell formulas".

Qiao Ruowei sneered in her heart, sure enough, even if Qi Mucheng believed her, these people didn't believe her.

But Qiao Ruowei didn't care, she nodded and took the document, and roughly read the content on it.

It's quite reasonable, except for asking her to keep her research results confidential, there are no other special excessive requirements.

Eyes fall on the last one.

In case of breach of contract, Party B must obey the company's allocation and compensate 300% of the project fund.

That's three times as much.

Qiao Ruowei picked up the pen on the table and signed her name.

Handing it to Dean Zheng to read it, Dean Zheng checked it and felt that there was no problem, so there was a smile on his face: "Doctor Qiao, don't blame me for letting you sign this document, after all, this matter is not in my charge, and I also listen to the above arrangement." ”

Qiao Ruowei nodded with a smile: "It's okay, Dean, if there's nothing to do, I'll go out first." ”

"Go, go, go, go back."

Qiao Ruoyu got up and walked out of the dean's office.

As soon as I went out, I happened to bump into a person.

"Oops, you didn't open your eyes when you walked!"

Qiao Ruowei hurriedly apologized softly: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" ”

She raised her eyes and saw clearly that it was Sister Mandarin.

I have been coming to the Southwest Research Institute for a while, and Qiao Ruoyu also knows that this sister Mandarin's real name is Xu Yuan, and her name is very good, but I heard that her personality is not very good, Qiao Ruoyu is very busy every day, and naturally she has no time to contact this Xu Yuan.

Counting, except for the one time she met Xu Yuan when she came, she didn't contact Xu Yuan later.

"Who's that...... How did you get here? Xu Yuan's willow eyebrows furrowed slightly, and she looked at Qiao Ruoyu suspiciously and asked.

Qiao Ruowei wanted to leave directly, but Xu Yuan took the initiative to talk to her, and she said to Xu Yuan politely: "Dean Zheng asked me to come for something." ”

"Oh." Xu Yuan nodded, and at the end, he remembered something and looked at Qiao Ruoyu and said, "I have heard about the recent incident, don't take it too seriously, this matter can be seen by anyone with brains." ”

I didn't expect Xu Yuan, who was not easy to get along with, to comfort herself, Qiao Ruoyu was slightly surprised and smiled at Xu Yuan: "Thank you." ”

"I still have something to do, I'll go first."

Xu Yuan waved his hand, still turning around and leaving with a straight face.

Back in the laboratory, Qiao Ruowei continued to busy her work.

The number of cases has increased again in recent days, and she can't remind herself of those messy things, she must focus on her work and research out the vaccine formula as soon as possible!

……

After the shareholders' meeting, Imperial Pharmaceutical was in chaos.

Director Wang even issued a document overnight, demanding that Qi Mucheng remove Qiao Ruowei and ask Qiao Ruoyu to publicly apologize.

"Impossible."

Qi Mucheng directly refused.

As soon as he said this, the shareholders who were already pretending to be angry all started a war of scolding like a cannon battle that had been ignited.

Director Wang said: "Mr. Qi, we have been with you for so many years, even rabbits will bite!" We are shareholders of the company, don't we even have this right! ”

"Of course there is, but this matter was not done by Qiao Ruowei, why did she apologize and resign?"

The remaining shareholders listened and whispered angrily: "I think Mr. Qi is really confused, just for a woman, he doesn't even care about the company's reputation!" ”

"Yes, now all walks of life are judging our company, even if this matter is really not Qiao Ruoyu's doing, someone has to come out and take the blame!"

Director Wang took the lead in speaking: "Mr. Qi! Can you hear what everyone has to say! If you don't give us an explanation for this matter, we won't leave today! ”

Qi Mucheng snorted coldly, giving a look to the bodyguards standing at the door, and more than a dozen tall bodyguards immediately came in to catch people up.

"Mr. Qi, how can you be like this!!"

The shareholders who were driven away were even more angry, but they were all a bunch of middle-aged greasy uncles who never exercised, and a few bodyguards were in a column, and they couldn't get in at all!

A group of people had to leave angrily!

Before leaving, a few of them were still standing at the door of the office and scolding.

Zhou Shuo hurriedly went to close the door.

The world is pure.

Zhou Shuo frowned, walked up to Qi Mucheng, and asked worriedly: "Mr. Qi, do you really plan to let these shareholders go like this?" ”
