Was he just calling Xia Sanghuan?
Jiang Zimo walked in and saw an old man with a somewhat fierce face fiddling with the instruments in front of him.
Presumably, he was Professor He Jianyu that Leng Chuanjin had told him about.
He walked over respectfully and bowed to He Jianyu.
"Professor He, hello."
Professor He had his back to him at first. When he heard a deep male voice instead of the familiar voice of the girl, he was startled.
"Ouch, you scared me to death."
He patted his chest and glared at the young man in front of him.
"Who are you? Who let you in?"
Jiang Zimo was a bit confused. "Isn't this the project team led by Young Master Leng that's researching the Black-bone Spiritual Treasure?"
Hearing this, Professor He's already wide-open eyes almost popped out.
"Shh! Who did you hear that from?"
"Could it be that stinky girl...!"
Seeing that Professor He misunderstood, he quickly waved his hand.
"No no no, it has nothing to do with Classmate Xia. Brother Leng asked me to come."
"He said there were difficulties in the research progress of the project team and asked me to help follow up."
After understanding his purpose, Professor He finally felt relieved.
He said rather grumpily, "Remember to knock on the door next time you come in. I'm an old man. If you scare me like this a few more times, I'll probably die of a sudden heart attack here."
Jiang Zimo smiled apologetically and promised to knock on the door properly from now on.
Just as the two were introducing themselves to each other, Xia Sanghuan came in carrying a box.
After she pushed the door open and saw the scene in front of her, she was stunned for a moment.
Why is he here?
Seeing her reaction, Jiang Zimo quickly repeated the explanation he had just given to Professor He.
After hearing his explanation, she finally felt relieved.
After all, not just anyone could enter this research laboratory.
She turned to Professor He and said, "Professor, I'll go to the break room to change my clothes first."
Saying that, she carried the box into the break room that was specially built for her and He Jianyu to take a lunch break in the research laboratory.
According to the plot of a novel she had been dragged to read by her classmates in junior high school, she originally thought Leng Chuanjin would send her a very gorgeous evening dress. But when she opened the box, there was only a white women's suit lying inside.
Although the style was very simple, she reached out and touched the fabric.
Based on her years of experience in sewing clothes, she guessed that just this fabric must be very expensive.
She took out the suit with a complicated mood. While worrying that the clothes might come apart at the seams, she put it on.
To her surprise, it fit perfectly.
She walked up to the floor-length mirror in the suit and twirled around. The more she looked at herself, the more she liked it.
This suit perfectly accentuated the lines of her arms and waist, magnifying all the advantages of her body.
If you ignored her slightly childish face, she would look like a powerful female CEO in the business world at this moment.
She walked out of the break room somewhat shyly. Under the surprised gazes of the two people outside, she asked shyly,
"How do I look?"
Professor He nodded approvingly. "Very nice, girl. People who don't know might think a female CEO has come."
Jiang Zimo beside her held back for a long time before blushing and saying, "It suits you very well."
Xia Sanghuan wasn't the kind of person who liked to dress herself up or liked others to praise her appearance.
But she had to admit that she was also a little girl who was very receptive to praise.
Especially since she was wearing the clothes sent by her second brother.
She happily twirled around on the spot.
Jiang Zimo watched the girl's little face flush with happiness and was momentarily stunned.
It wasn't until Professor He beside him spoke.
"It's almost time for lunch. What did Leng Chuanjin say? Will he come to pick you up, or do you eat in the school now?"
She paused for a moment, took out her phone from her pocket, and said, "I'll ask my second brother first."
Before her call got through, Professor He pulled Jiang Zimo away, claiming that he was so hungry that he couldn't wait.
So Xia Sanghuan was left alone in the research laboratory.
"Hello."
A cold voice came from the phone.
"Did you receive the clothes?"
She replied with a little excitement, "Yes, I did. The clothes are very nice. Thank you, second brother."
"Second brother, when will the bidding meeting start? Should I stay in the school for lunch, or..."
Leng Chuanjin pondered for a moment. "I'll go pick you up now."
"But there'll only be time to have a boxed lunch in the car."
"Can you... accept that? If not, I'll..."
Xia Sanghuan quickly interrupted him. "It's okay, second brother. I can accept anything."
She had mostly eaten brown rice in Qingshanpo. How could she dislike a boxed lunch?
"Should I go out and wait for you now?"
As she spoke, she packed her schoolbag and prepared to walk to the school gate.
"Okay, I'll be there in about ten minutes."
After hanging up the phone, Leng Chuanjin checked his appearance in the mirror one last time before leaving the cloakroom with Yun Ye.
He wasn't a person who paid special attention to his appearance. To be precise, he didn't pay attention at all. As long as his clothes were appropriate for the occasion, he didn't care what his appearance was like, especially for a relatively serious event like a bidding meeting.
But this time, he inexplicably spent a little more time on preparing his appearance.
He was a bit looking forward to seeing the bright look in the girl's eyes when she looked at him.
Yun Ye watched his young master's behavior and couldn't help but wonder in his heart.
What's wrong with the young master? Could he really be in love with Miss Xia?
Otherwise, why would he act so abnormally?
But he only dared to think about it in his heart and didn't dare to show it at all on the surface.
It was just that this time, with Xia Sanghuan, who basically knew nothing, tagging along, he had more things to take care of.
It was a bit of a headache.
They drove to Fernos Academy, and Xia Sanghuan was already waiting at the gate.
She got into the back seat of the car and sat next to Leng Chuanjin.
The moment he saw her through the car window, he was amazed.
The girl had a neat high ponytail, and the white suit she was wearing perfectly accentuated her temperament, making her look like a blooming white rose.
While the girl was getting into the car, he quickly came back to his senses and made himself look normal.
He handed her the boxed lunch that he had just heated up in the company. The dishes in the boxed lunch were personally selected by him from the employee cafeteria.
Fortunately, he usually treated his employees well. The meals were prepared by top-notch chefs, which now came in handy for him.
Xia Sanghuan took the still-warm boxed lunch, lifted the lid, and started eating.
Leng Chuanjin watched the girl's chubby side face as she ate and resisted the urge to poke it with his finger.
She swallowed a mouthful of rice and turned to ask,
"Brother Chuanjin, what should I do when we get to the venue?
"Do I need to carry your bag or something to make you look... more 'high-class'?"
