Chapter 226 You've Actually Acted Like a Human Being Today (Night White)
"Then what should we call it?" Su Ye had a gut feeling that there was some bad trick waiting for him.

But just because the other party was Shen Zhaoyi, he was still willing to take the bait.

"Teach me."

"Tell me the tune you were singing earlier," the woman's voice was full of expectation, "and remember to use Cantonese."

I've known Su Ye for so long, but we've never talked about it except when we're singing.

You should know that the reason Shen Zhaoyi was attracted to him back then was precisely because of this. If they had sung something else at the time, the two of them might not have had this kind of interaction now.

Su Ye complied with her lover's requests, but also felt somewhat helpless.

In this world, there is something called "native language embarrassment".

Sometimes, when he says something in front of strangers that they can't quite understand, he feels out of place.

But there is no way.

Since Shen Zhaoyi wanted to hear it, she had no choice but to comply.

He opened his mouth and uttered a perfectly ordinary "BB".

But because the people they were facing were different, there was an indescribable focus and tenderness in their expressions.

"Yes, yes, that's exactly the taste!" Shen Zhaoyi was very satisfied. Why didn't she think of letting him call her that back then?

Some people's voices are naturally suited to speaking other things.

Ever since this "BB" opened the door to a new world, Su Ye's bedtime routine has evolved from singing to live audio.

Shen Zhaoyi lay on the bed, closed her eyes, and enjoyed her personalized experience.

Until the middle of the night, I had a hazy, beautiful dream. My legs had just touched the blanket when I suddenly opened my eyes and felt a familiar sticky sensation on my lower body.

well.

My aunt, who had run away from home, finally came to visit.

I never expected Su Ye's voice to have this function.

She got out of bed grumbling and made a fuss in the bathroom. After changing into clean pajamas, she went straight to the next room to rest.

This little incident caused me to wake up half an hour late the next day.

If nothing unexpected happens, Cheng Yubai should already be downstairs by now.

As if to confirm her suspicions, the moment her phone was unlocked, frontline reporter Xu Meng sent a report: "[Zhaoyi, that person is here again!!!]"

The three exclamation marks were enough to show how wary his nanny was of him.

Shen Zhaoyi replied that it was okay to ignore it, and then began to wash up and get ready.

My lower abdomen aches slightly, but thankfully, I've gotten used to it by now.

After adjusting his state and going upstairs, Cheng Yubai's gaze lingered for a moment on her already made-up face, seeing right through her.

"You're not feeling well, why don't you rest at home today?"

“No need.” Shen Zhaoyi sat down in the dining chair he pulled out. “I’m not that fragile.”

My main purpose in going to see Director Zhao today was to review the diagnostic report. If it weren't for Grandma Mu's situation, she certainly wouldn't have put on such a brave face.

But the elderly person's condition cannot be delayed.

Cheng Yubai naturally guessed what she was thinking and didn't try to persuade her any further.

However, today was unusually quiet; from the time he ate until he left, he didn't say anything "shocking".

This made Shen Zhaoyi feel somewhat uncomfortable.

Once inside the car, she glanced at Cheng Yubai, who was about to drive off, and remarked, "You're actually behaving like a normal person today."

The man was focused on the rearview mirror, adjusting the direction while reversing, and didn't think carefully about the meaning of those words.

I casually asked, "Who does he look like?"

"No, I was just talking nonsense." Shen Zhaoyi looked away, leaned back in her chair, and closed her eyes to rest. The rest of the journey was unusually quiet. Perhaps to accommodate her feelings, Cheng Yubai changed routes, avoiding the most congested intercity highway and choosing to take a side road to the suburbs.

Forty minutes later, we stopped outside the rented space for the laboratory.

"You must have spent a lot on gas this month."

Shen Zhaoyi looked around at the scenery and felt that it was really unnecessary to spend money on breakfast.

Sensing the hidden meaning in her words, Cheng Yubai locked the car and led the people inside.

Whether it's necessary or not, we'll find out soon enough.
Having received the news early on, Director Zhao did nothing all day but stayed in his office, waiting for Shen Zhaoyi to arrive.

This is a big boss!
Other people's projects need to attract several investors to get started, but in his case, Ms. Shen took care of everything.

They're generous with money and never question it.

Even if you visit every temple in the world, you might not be able to obtain such a good opportunity.

Who among his former colleagues wouldn't be envious upon hearing this?
Just as Director Zhao was looking at the hands of his watch, wondering why the person hadn't arrived yet, there was a knock on the door.

He immediately sat up straight and replied, "Come in!"

The next second, the door was pulled open, and two figures came into view.

One of them is Cheng Yubai.

The other one was Shen Zhaoyi, whom I had a brief encounter with at the banquet last time. She was still so beautiful that it was impossible to look away.

"Miss Shen, it's been a long time." Director Zhao quickly stood up and extended his hand to her.

Shen Zhaoyi gave him a light handshake and said politely, "Director Zhao, thank you for your help with the project."

"Not at all, I haven't thanked Miss Shen yet!"

Once this topic is brought up, Director Zhao can't stop talking.

He started by talking about the initial motivation for starting the project, the difficulty of attracting investment, and then, in a roundabout way, praised Shen Zhaoyi, the investor.

The words don't repeat at all.

In the past, his words might have received a response.

But today, being a special day, Shen Zhaoyi felt her head buzzing.

After pouring each of them a cup of hot tea, Cheng Yubai steered the conversation toward business, saying, "Director, when Miss Shen and I came over just now, we ran into the aunt from the neighboring village again at the door."

When Shen Zhaoyi heard him say that, her hand holding the teacup paused almost imperceptibly.

We haven't seen a single person along the way...

But Cheng Yubai seemed confident that he wouldn't be exposed, and then brought up the matter of changing the test site.

Director Zhao looked at Shen Zhaoyi's expression with some embarrassment.

Why does this newbie have to bring up such a sensitive topic? Bringing it up in front of people, isn't it obvious he wants money?
He was about to explain himself and smooth things over when he saw Shen Zhaoyi put down her teacup and agree, "It really needs to be changed, otherwise it will affect the project."

Her words stemmed from a self-interest perspective.

It left Director Zhao with no choice but to agree.

“But,” he said, mustering his courage to voice his concerns, “Miss Shen, the equipment we’ve purchased are all precision instruments. If they get damaged during transport due to negligence, then…”

"Just buy another one if it breaks." Shen Zhaoyi's "rich" demeanor completely shut him down.

Director Zhao also knew that moving away would definitely have its advantages.

At least I won't be bothered by those aunties outside.

But where to move to?

The project team, including staff borrowed from hospitals and schools, is quite large; a small place simply can't accommodate them all.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have chosen this clinic that had been replaced.

But it was clear that someone present had come prepared.
