Chapter 67 Engagement
byChapter 67 Engagement
In the blink of an eye, it is winter again, a new year is coming, and half of the school year of Kang Zhuoyan II has ended.
Some time ago, the college just had a project that would allow postgraduates to go to country D for exchange and study for half a year next semester. Kang Zhuo applied immediately and passed quickly. Today, he came to Liu Ming to sign a leave application, and then he had to give it to the counselor.
"D is very good. If you meet Professor Keller, remember to say hello to me. We are old friends."
Liu Ming smiled and signed the leave request form. Kang Zhuo was a student he was very satisfied with. He returned the leave request form to Kang Zhuo, pushed his glasses and looked at him, but he couldn't help but say, "Although I know you know what you're doing. , but I still nag a few words, fall in love and fall in love, we still have to focus on learning and scientific research."
Kang Zhuo blushed suddenly, and his right hand subconsciously touched the engagement ring on his left middle finger: "That's for sure, I know."
The relationship between Kang Zhuo and Quan Huachen is no longer a secret in the laboratory. They got engaged during the summer vacation half a year ago. Quan Huachen prepared a generous gift for everyone in the laboratory, especially for Liu Ming. , donated a new cryo-transmission electron microscope to the laboratory.
Speaking of engagement, although it has been half a year, Kang Zhuo still feels embarrassed when he thinks about it, especially when a group of familiar elders gathered around to discuss their wedding, and even mentioned the matter of having children.
In fact, Kang Zhuo has no concept of marriage at all. He is only 21 years old after the new year, and he is still one year away from the legal marriage age of omega. Now, apart from Quan Huachen, he can only engage in scientific research.
However, on the night of Kang Zhuo's 20th birthday, Quan Huachen suddenly proposed.
Kang Zhuo had just returned from a meeting with Liu Ming that day. He was exhausted from the high-speed train ride for most of the day, and he had no intention of celebrating his birthday at all.
In the evening, Quan Huachen saw that he had no appetite, so he took him out to eat something light, but the cake was a large size pre-ordered and there was no way to change it. Quan Huachen cut a small piece for him, and said that for his birthday, he would take a bite of the cake.
Kang Zhuo picked up the fork and started to eat the cake according to his words, but as soon as he inserted the fork into the cake, he felt that something was not right. The fork seemed to be stuck in something hard. Kang Zhuo opened the cake strangely and saw that it was a ring.
"That's mine. I put it in the cake for you to see. Just put it in there and don't worry about it. Yours is with me."
With a smile on his lips, Quan Huachen walked in front of Kang Zhuo, knelt down on one knee naturally, and held a delicate ring box in front of Kang Zhuo.
"Baby, would you like to marry me?"
Kang Zhuo was stunned, his gray eyes like crystal beads were full of shock and confusion, but he would not refuse Quan Huachen. Although he was not in a situation, he obediently handed his left hand to Quan Huachen and said: "willing."
Kang Zhuo’s state of confusion continued for several days, until Kang Shicheng came home on the weekend and asked Kang Zhuo which day they were planning to arrange the engagement banquet, so that he could arrange work and free up time.
Only then did Kang Zhuo really realize that he was going to get married.
"It's not marriage, it's engagement." Quan Huachen corrected him, "I just put a sign on you first, saying 'This omega already has a heart, please don't disturb', that's all, don't be afraid."
Quan Huachen knew that Kang Zhuo was still young, and he didn't want to bind him with marriage so early, but he couldn't bear Yin Dongfan's harassment again and again.
Just last month, while Quan Huachen was away, Yin Dongfan came to Kang Zhuo's house to look for him when he was very drunk. Kang Zhuo didn't let him in. , Fortunately, aunt Zhu was at home that day and helped to pull people away, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous, Kang Zhuo called Quan Huachen crying for the first time to complain.
Quan Huachen rushed to Quan Xiao's house early the next morning, looking for Yin Dongfan from room to room with a sullen face, and cursed at the first sight of him. Just got started.
At the engagement banquet in the summer vacation, Kang Zhuo didn't want to be too public. After discussing it with Quan Huachen, he decided to only invite the parents of both parties to meet for a simple meal. Of course, they also invited Quan Xiao's family. Quan Huachen specifically requested that they must be allowed Take Yin Dongfan and apologize to Kang Zhuo.
Quan Xiao knew that he was wrong and pressed Yin Dongfan's head to force him to apologize, calling him Aunt Kang Zhuo.
Yin Dongfan was reluctant at first, but was frightened by Quan Huachen's look, and said sullenly, "Auntie, I'm sorry."
Kang Zhuo was about to have PTSD towards him, and he immediately stayed away from him after he responded.
Yin Dongfan knew that he was unpleasant here, so he left without taking two bites, and Quan Xiao and Yin Jie didn't care about him.
Zhou Yuan liked Kang Zhuo very much. As soon as they met, she saw him laughing non-stop, and even gave him a big red envelope. Quan Xiao was not to be outdone, and took out the red envelope prepared in advance. The thickness was not the same as Zhou Yuan's. up and down.
Kang Shicheng spoke frankly, and he was not afraid that Zhou Yuan would be unhappy. He said seriously to Quan Huachen: "Let's make it clear first, you can get engaged. A lifetime mark is absolutely not allowed, let alone a child!"
Quan Huachen nodded: "That's for sure, Dad, don't worry, I know what to do."
Kang Shicheng's face improved a little: "I'll talk about this when Kang Zhuo graduates and you get married."
But Zhou Yuan was a little worried: "We, Xiaozhuo, will definitely study for a Ph.D. after graduating with a master's degree. It will take many years for him to graduate with a doctor's degree. In-law, you should think about Huachen's age."
Kang Zhuo was so embarrassed that he wanted to leave, but when he heard this, he couldn't help laughing, Quan Huachen was so angry that he secretly squeezed his hand under the tablecloth.
At the same time, Quan Xiao was laughing together, and it was very happy to see Quan Huachen deflated.
Seeing that Kang Shicheng was unmoved, Zhou Yuan began to tell him the importance of the problem from the child's point of view, saying that if the alpha was too old, it might affect the health of the future child, and Kang Shicheng was shaken.
In the end, Quan Xiao came out and said that these private matters should be left to the young couple to consider. It is better for the parents not to interfere too much. Several people felt it was reasonable, so they finally avoided the topic.
Although it was indeed selfish to go to country D, Kang Zhuo thought about it and decided to explain to his mentor: "I did not apply to go to country D for Quan Huachen, he has recently handled the branch office's affairs in a similar manner. stay in the country."
Liu Ming laughed at him: "Teacher, I was young too, I still don't understand your little couple."
"hey-hey."
"It's good to have someone take care of you over there, remember to dig some more D-caliber real talents for me to learn."
"Um."
The two said a few more words. Kang Zhuo was about to leave. Before leaving, he remembered something and asked Liu Ming excitedly, "Professor, has the PMA been handed over to Quanhe?"
"They said they will send someone to pick it up tomorrow," Liu Ming smiled at Kang Zhuo again, "but now that you are the boss' family, you can take it now if you want."
Kang Zhuo's eyes lit up: "Can I take a look first?"
PMA is a new type of omega estrus inhibitor developed by Liu Ming's laboratory team. It is made of a special pheromone molecular adhesive extracted from the male Aibo comet moth.
Because compared with other drugs for intractable diseases, omega estrus inhibitors have the widest market, and this is only an improvement of the original drug, the cost is lower, and it is relatively easy to develop. Therefore, when Liu Ming and Quan Huachen discussed, the two sides agreed that this substance can be used to produce a new type of inhibitor first.
So after more than half a year of efforts in the laboratory, a new omega inhibitor of PMA was produced, which has undergone a series of tests such as preliminary pharmacology and toxicology, and will be handed over to Quanhe for subsequent trials and clinical studies.
Liu Ming took out a suitcase from the safe built into the wall of the office. After entering the password at the top, the suitcase opened automatically, and there lay three tubes of light blue reagents.
"This is not a life-saving medicine. I'm not worried about someone coming to grab it, but I'm afraid it will break. This box is distributed by the school. It looks weird, but it can't stand a few falls, so be careful."
Since Liu Ming said this, Kang Zhuo is welcome. The suitcase looks very simple, with the logo of A, which is inconspicuous. There should be no problem, so he left the laboratory building with the suitcase.
Kang Zhuo thought that PMA was more important, and decided to hand in the leave application tomorrow. He drove to Quanhe first, and then went to see Quan Huachen while taking the inhibitor. He was happy when he suddenly found that the tire was flat before getting in the car. .
This reminded Kang Zhuo of his car being splashed with paint last year, but it had been too long, and he quickly ignored it. It was common for the tires to be punctured by glass or nails.
The car couldn't be driven, but because Kang Zhuo still had an inhibitor in his hand, he didn't dare to call a taxi easily, so he could only call Quan Huachen. Quan Huachen finished his work and drove to pick it up. He, it takes about an hour on the road.
Quan Huachen was afraid that Kang Zhuo would be bored, so he didn't hang up the phone. The two chatted for more than half an hour until Kang Zhuo said that the phone was about to run out of power and would be turned off.
"I'll wait for you at Ximen now." Kang Zhuo said, "Just a little closer to you."
"Okay, if I haven't arrived yet, you can wait for me at the door of the security room. Don't run around."
"Know it."
More than 20 minutes later, Quan Huachen arrived at the west gate of A, but did not see Kang Zhuo. He asked the security guard. The security guard said that he did not see any students standing nearby. The west gate is relatively remote, and there are usually few students coming and going. The security guard said that if he saw a student standing nearby, he would definitely notice it.
Quan Huachen called Kang Zhuo's cell phone, and it turned off. He restrained some bad fantasies in his heart, and after thinking for a while, he parked the car at the door, asked for the phone number of the security room, and entered the campus himself, hoping to follow the road. I could meet Kang Zhuo, but until Quan Huachen found Kang Zhuo's car, he didn't see Kang Zhuo himself.
In the subzero temperature of winter, Quan Huachen was sweating anxiously. He first called Liu Ming and then Kang Zhuo's counselor. After asking for Chu Weilin's mobile phone number from the counselor, he immediately contacted Chu Weilin..
However, no one knows Kang Zhuo's whereabouts.
Quan Huachen was anxiously spinning beside Kang Zhuo's car. Holding the last ray of hope, he called the Ximen security room. Just when the call was connected, Quan Huachen's hand inadvertently waved over the bushes and green plants on the side of the road.The pain was cut open by a sharp branch.
Quan Huachen stared blankly at the bleeding wound. A certain nerve in the back of his left brain suddenly began to throb. The migraine that had subsided for nearly a year returned, and the ominous premonition reached its peak.
"Master, is anyone waiting beside my car?"
"I've been watching, no one."
