Chapter 1196: Chapter 1195: Scheming Thoughts

Hey, speaking of which, I haven’t asked you yet. How did you provoke your dad at that time, making him so angry that he froze all your credit cards? Qi Feng asked.

Oh, don’t mention it. My dad dislikes that I only know how to play and don’t conduct research. Back then, he forced me to study in the research department, and now he wants to keep pushing me to stay in the institute doing research. Why should I? Zhao Shuai rolled his eyes and said, ”I must say, you’re ungrateful for the blessings you have!” Qi Rongfeng said to Zhao Shuai.

Zhao Shuai studied research-related subjects? Jiang Cheng was somewhat surprised about this.

”Haha. Can’t tell, right? He studied in the research department at Imperial University, the best school with the best department in the country.” Qi Rongfeng said.

How do you say such a thing, Rongfeng? Why wouldn’t you be able to tell? Do I not look like a research person? Zhao Shuai looked at Jiang Cheng with a sense of injustice. ”You say, Lin, do I not look like a research guy?”

Yes, if you don’t look closely, you do look like one.” Jiang Cheng found it amusing; he didn’t expect Zhao Shuai to study in the best research department.

Hahahaha, didn’t expect Lin to be so humorous too.” Qi Feng said.

Oh dear, you all just know how to tease me. That’s why I’m really not research material; my dad is just pushing me.” Zhao Shuai said with annoyance on his face.

By the way, I’ve always thought Wu Shan looks a lot like my university classmate, but I can’t remember clearly.

Zhao Shuai said.

Classmate? How many lectures did you attend at that time? All the beauties are your classmates, right? Qi Rongfeng teased Zhao Shuai.

Really, the moment I saw her I found her very familiar. I just suddenly remembered she should be my classmate; back then she was the campus belle.

Zhao Shuai said.

But do you know where Wu went? Jiang Cheng suddenly remembered he hadn’t seen Wu Mu.

”She went home, just came out from Mantasha. Maybe she was frightened, being a girl after all.” Qi Rongfeng said.

While speaking, the waiter brought out the prepared dishes. They saw a table full of all kinds of liver, steaks, and various foods.

Whoa, Zhao Shuai, are you setting me up? So much, can we finish it? Qi Rongfeng said.

Oh, don’t be angry. This is a newly opened place, you haven’t tried it either, right? It’s just right to taste, anyway, you don’t lack money, enjoy life, brother.” Zhao Shuai picked up a piece of foie gras and said.

The three slowly finished this sumptuous dinner. The next day, Lin, Zhao Shuai, and Qi Rongfeng were together. Jiang Cheng also bought a phone here, and the day before heading to the Imperial Capital, Jiang Cheng met the director of the town’s research institute.

”Who is this, Lin? Why pick up you? We can go by ourselves,” Zhao Shuai and Qi Rongfeng learned Jiang Cheng was going to the conference and wanted to go together.

This is the director of the town’s research institute. We had agreed to go together before.” Jiang Cheng said.

The director then walked up to Jiang Cheng and said, ”Scientist Lin, how have you been resting recently? We are doing quite well here.” The director asked Jiang Cheng with a smile.

”Pretty good. Shall we head to the Imperial Capital now?” Jiang Cheng didn’t want to communicate much with the director.

Then we can go together, director? Your car seems pretty nice, didn’t expect the town’s research director could drive such a good car.” Zhao Shuai seemed to imply something while examining the director’s car.

Ah, just where, we can definitely go together. Scientist Lin’s friends are my friends too. Haha.” The director said with a smile.

Jiang Cheng and the others sat in the director’s car. ”Lin, what’s going on with this director? Where’s the money to buy this car? This car’s cost might not even be affordable with his salary.” Zhao Shuai whispered to Jiang Cheng.

Who knows, I don’t know either, but I also feel that this director isn’t someone seriously dedicated to research. Having little motives is one thing, but there isn’t any major problem.” Jiang Cheng said.

”Yeah, since someone sent us, why think so much?” Zhao Shuai lay on the backseat of the car again.

Jiang Cheng also admired Zhao Shuai’s carefree nature, never keeping things on his mind for long.

Jiang Cheng felt after two hours they had arrived at the Imperial Capital, which seemed closer than he imagined. Seeing Zhao Shuai asleep beside him, Jiang Cheng couldn’t help but chuckle, ”Hey, Zhao Shuai, wake up, we’ve arrived.” Qi Rongfeng patted Zhao Shuai’s face and said.

Hmm? Hmm, arrived? So fast,” Zhao Shuai drowsily looked around, rubbed his eyes, and asked, ”Where is this?”

Jiang Cheng at this time also looked outside the courtyard and saw it was just an ordinary hotel.

The director then said, ”Scientist Lin, let’s rest here now and head to the conference tomorrow.”

But, director, do you have the invitation? A conference requires an invitation.” Qi Rongfeng said.

I have two invitations here, but are you guys also going?” The director asked Qi Rongfeng and Zhao Shuai, thinking these two are just hitching a ride to the Imperial Capital rather than attending the conference.

What? Can’t we attend?” Zhao Shuai looked at the director with disdain.

Exactly, since we came here at this time, of course we want to attend too. Qi Rongfeng was also a bit angry. This director isn’t very capable but somehow looks down on others.

The director saw both were angry and quickly said, ”No, no, I only have two invitations here.”

Since I’m going, I’ll find a way to get an invitation, forget it, Lin, see you tomorrow, I want to go home first.” Zhao Shuai felt this director was really something, so he pulled Qi Rongfeng to get off the car.

”Then Lin, we’ll go first. See you tomorrow.” Qi Rongfeng said to Jiang Cheng.

Hmm, you guys go ahead, see you tomorrow.” Jiang Cheng said.

After seeing Zhao Shuai and the others walk away, Jiang Cheng asked the director, ”Director, why didn’t you mention the invitation thing earlier?”

Oh, such a small matter, what’s the point in telling you, besides, I just happen to have two invitations.” The director said with a smile. ”Forget it, you probably are tired in the car. Let’s go inside and rest?” The director pointed at the hotel ahead and said.

Jiang Cheng nodded and followed the director into the hotel. Jiang Cheng watched as the director booked two rooms, the reception lady asked Jiang Cheng for an ID, and he suddenly remembered he didn’t have an ID for this country. ”Uh, sorry, I forgot it.” Jiang Cheng said with slight embarrassment.

The director then took out his ID and said, ”Just book two rooms under my name.” Jiang Cheng quickly paid, not wanting to owe the director anything. However, seeing the numbers on the bill made him wonder, the director’s lifestyle seems very luxurious. He thought to himself he should have less contact with him in the future.

”Hey, what are you doing, Scientist Lin? You’re with us this time as part of the research institute, the accommodation here should be covered by us.” The director said.

Oh well, I’m not really part of the institute, keeping things clear is better.” Jiang Cheng said.

Alright, alright, let’s go.” The director said helplessly. Jiang Cheng followed the director and the hotel staff to the two rooms, where he was surprised when entering. This room was completely like a presidential suite. Jiang Cheng always felt the director had a luxurious lifestyle, not quite like a research scientist, and didn’t expect his daily life was like this, undisguised.

The director saw Jiang Cheng’s surprised look and thought to himself, ”No matter how advanced your research is, you still haven’t seen the world. Looks like you haven’t seen such a room before.” But he said, ”Scientist Lin, have a good rest, I won’t disturb you, haha.”
