1970s: Hot wife accompanies the army, cold-faced rough man is not easy to tease

Chapter 342 Ordinary people don't have the ability to make her angry.

After arranging tomorrow's tasks, Lu Youyou noticed that Duan Mingjuan and Niu Dazhuang hadn't gone back, so she came over with a smile.

"The weather forecast says there will be thunderstorms tonight, so you two shouldn't stay out too late."

"Okay, Ms. Lu, I'll go back as soon as I finish what I'm doing," Duan Mingjuan said.

"Don't worry, Teacher Lu, I brought an umbrella. I'll make sure to get my senior sister back to her dorm safely later," Niu Dazhuang immediately replied.

Duan Mingjuan's face flushed slightly, and she subtly nudged Niu Dazhuang with her elbow. Really, why was she shouting so loudly!
Lu Youyou didn't notice the subtle exchange between the two of them. Before leaving, she reminded them, "Check everything before you leave, and remember to lock the door."

"Okay, don't worry!"

The two spoke in unison and looked at each other simultaneously.

After Lu Youyou left, Duan Mingjuan immediately took a big step to the side, her face still flushed: "Who asked you to see me off? And why did you call me 'senior sister' so loudly so that Teacher Lu could hear!"

Niu Dazhuang chuckled: "Didn't you say you started earlier and were ahead of me? What else should I call you if not senior sister?"

Duan Mingjuan, usually quick-witted, suddenly found herself speechless. If it weren't for Niu Dazhuang's naturally honest and simple face, she... she...

Duan Mingjuan couldn't describe how she felt, only that her face and hands were hot. It was during the late spring chill, and her palms were sweating.

Lu Youyou was unaware of the subtle pink bubble between the two students. At that moment, she was rinsing her mouth in the washroom, having just spat out, and her throat felt incredibly sore.

She's gotten used to vomiting lately, and knows that it helps for a while afterward. She braced herself against the edge of the sink, waiting for her breathing to gradually return to normal.

Suddenly, a small bump appeared on her stomach, and a moment later another bulge appeared next to it. Even though Lu Youyou was still in pain, she couldn't help but laugh.

She gently tapped the two mounds: "You two are too lively, can you be quiet for a while?"

Whether they heard her words or not, the two little ones really stopped moving, and the bulges slowly subsided, as if they were the two gentle and refined children who had just been punching and kicking.

Lu Youyou took a few deep breaths, feeling better in her stomach, then quickly washed her face and turned to leave.

After walking a few steps, a person came out of the office next to the stairwell, glanced in this direction as if by chance, and then turned and walked towards us.

"Comrade Lu, are you about to leave work? Are you feeling unwell? You don't look too good."

"Thank you for your concern, Comrade Wei. I'm fine."

The speaker was Wei Dong. Lu Youyou had only nodding acquaintances with him, but she remembered that Wei Qiaosheng had mentioned his name, so she took a second look.

"Comrade Lu is pregnant but still has to worry about work. It's really tough."

Lu Youyou smiled and said, "I'm not the only one who stayed at my post while pregnant, so it's not hard work."

Wei Dong chuckled twice and said, "It's not easy, after all. If you're not feeling well, it's fine to rest for a few days. You can ask another teacher to cover your classes for a couple of days. The college will definitely agree."

If it weren't for Wei Qiaosheng, Lu Youyou might not have thought much of it, but she and Wei Dong had never really interacted, so what could be the reason for her sudden concern?
Lu Youyou smiled and thanked him again, then fell silent. Now it was Wei Dong's turn to get anxious.

While his abilities might not be top-tier, they were certainly no less than those of Kong Fansheng, and he didn't think Lu Youyou would look down on him.

He's been working on a project for over a year now, and there's been very little progress. He's very busy, but in terms of results, it's like he's wasting his time.

In contrast, Lu Youyou's situation was bright. He didn't know the specific progress, but he saw papers being published one after another, reports one after another, and he heard that a new funding application had been approved. In comparison, the bigwig he was working with, apart from his prestigious reputation, couldn't compare to Lu Youyou in any other way.

It's also his fault for misjudging the situation back then; he chose someone with more seniority based on reputation and missed out on this lucrative opportunity.

Now everyone envies Kong Fansheng for his good eye and quick action. Regardless of why Kong Fansheng was determined to choose Lu Youyou from the beginning, he won't gain anything from asking, right?
Now is the crucial time for him to be promoted to associate professor. What he lacks is seniority. If he can gain experience in Lu Youyou's group, it will increase his chances by at least 20%.

Unfortunately, there was no follow-up from the vice president. Wei Dong was anxious, but there was nothing he could do.

Lu Youyou is not sociable and is a young and beautiful woman. He has no idea how to please her, even though he has a mouth all over his body.

Wei Dong kept thinking about what to do. He finally met the person in question today, but the person wouldn't respond. What should he do?
Actually, Lu Youyou had no problem with Wei Dong. Everyone has their own ambitions, and it wasn't a mistake for him not to choose her back then.

But she really doesn't need any help right now; she slowed down the pace on her own initiative, not because she was too busy.

Moreover, leading a team is not like fighting alone; you also have to consider the feelings of the team members. It's unnecessary to have a few more people with connections sharing the pie for no reason.

Wei Qiaosheng is only the vice dean; it's impossible for him to force someone in without her consent, so there's even less reason for him to agree.

The two went down from the third floor to the first floor, but Wei Dong still couldn't find a way to start. He was even thinking of volunteering himself, but before he could speak, a "wall" appeared in front of him.

Gu Qingye could tell from Lu Youyou's face that she had probably just vomited. Then he noticed a man next to her who was talking incessantly, so he immediately went over.

Although there was no imposing figure blocking their path, the 1.9-meter-tall burly man suddenly blocked their view, causing Wei Dong to instinctively take two steps back.

He had to look up to see the man who was almost half a head taller than him.

Gu Qingye didn't speak, but just looked at Wei Dong with his deep, sharp eyes.

Wei Dong knew Gu Qingye. The discussion about the young couple being a perfect match was not only circulating among the students, but also among the faculty and staff who would take a second look when they met them.

I heard this man is a soldier? His eyes are terrifying!

Wei Dong was unaware that Gu Qingye had already pinned the blame for making Lu Youyou uncomfortable on him. If it weren't for his status, he would have already unleashed his full power.

Even without anything happening, Gu Qingye's expression was very serious. As he grew older and his position changed, few people could remain unmoved when Gu Qingye stared at them silently.

Wei Dong couldn't say much more, so he forced a smile, greeted Lu Youyou, and took his leave.

"Is that your colleague?" Gu Qingye took the bag from Lu Youyou's hand and slowly walked forward, supporting her waist.

"Hmm." Lu Youyou looked at his straightened lips and pulled up two fingers slightly. "Relax, there's no danger at school."

Gu Qingye turned his head to look at her. Although he didn't say it out loud, the meaning was clear: there was no danger, but he couldn't make her angry.

Lu Youyou's laughter was light and cheerful; most people wouldn't have the ability to make her angry.

"Okay, let's go home. I want to eat loquats."

"Okay, I'll buy it for you on the way."
