Chapter 135: The one who knows me is Wen Jun!
Zhuo Wenjun has every reason to be angry!
According to normal etiquette, she came to apologize and brought some pastries as a gift. The other party should have opened the door, welcomed her in, and treated her with courtesy. But Wu Tian was not normal, seemingly only having eyes for the pastries, forgetting her existence. Obviously, this "seeing but not seeing" and "refusing at the door" was extremely impolite, she had never been treated like this before. However, she couldn't just leave like that, or else today's apology would have no meaning.
Besides, what Wu Tian did to her, does it have other meanings?
If the other party does not accept her apology, then so be it. But if the other party deliberately doesn't want to let her in, that's a different story altogether. Is there something important that they don't want her to know? Is there some secret that can't be seen by outsiders?
These days, she learned from her own intelligence department that the security measures of Tianzheng Building have been significantly strengthened, with 24-hour patrols by security guards. Not to mention sneaking in secretly, even if you park your car on the side of the road, the security guard will stare at it until you leave.
Was everything just a training exercise? Zhuo Wenjun didn't believe it. Moreover, in the past half month, no intelligence about the X Plan experiment records had been collected, which made her come to Tianzheng and enter the tiger's lair to investigate. Unexpectedly, as soon as she arrived at the gate, she encountered this situation.
Something's going on!
"Oh?" Upon hearing Zhuo Wenjun's words, Wu Tian was taken aback for a moment. He suddenly slapped his forehead and said to Zhuo Wenjun with a face full of apology, "Look at me, I was so focused on smelling the fragrance that I forgot to invite Miss Zhuo in. Sorry, really sorry." Then, Wu Tian turned to the security guard on the side and said loudly, "What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and open the gate! You must remember, from now on, when Miss Zhuo comes, don't need to report, just let her in directly, got it?"
"Yes, boss!"
The safety door slowly opened, Wu Tian walked to Zhuo Wenjun's side, stretched out his hand and pointed to the Tianzheng Building, smiling and said, "Miss Zhuo, please ~~!"
"Thank you!" Zhuo Wenjun said lightly and walked in with a expressionless face, "Excuse me."
"Don't disturb, don't disturb, from now on Miss Zhuo can come every day, it's okay even if she lives here. Anyway, we're all one family sooner or later, haha!" Wu Tianhou said with a thick face, whenever he saw Zhuo Wenjun, he always took advantage of her kindness.
Zhuo Wenjun seemed to have gotten used to it, she didn't say anything and walked straight into the building, but her eyes were like a scanner, looking at everything within sight.
Wu Tian took the elevator and went straight to his office on the top floor. He opened the bag of pastries and placed it on the tea table, then pointed to the sofa and said, "Miss Zhuo, please sit down. I'll make you a cup of tea. What kind of tea do you like?"
"A cup of coffee, thank you!" Zhuo Wenjun said, also splashing Wu Tian.
"Coffee? That's great! I just so happen to have some top-grade coffee beans here, Miss Zhuo will definitely like them."
Wu Tian took out the coffee beans and ground a cup for Zhuo Wenjun. After placing the coffee in front of Zhuo Wenjun, he sat down across from her. Fang Hua did not sit, standing off to the side from start to finish, highlighting Wu Tian's status here!
Zhuo Wenjun picked up the cup, placed it on her lips and blew gently, took a small sip, then put it back on the tea table, looked at Wu Tian and said, "Actually, Wenjun had wanted to come and apologize to Mr. Wu for a long time, but was worried that Mr. Wu would be too busy and wouldn't have time to see her. Didn't I disturb you today, Mr. Wu?"
"No. Didn't I say so? Miss Zhuo is welcome to come anytime." Wu Tian said with a smile, taking out a box from his pocket and opening the lid, revealing four square-shaped Western-style pastries that looked very delicate, no less than those in a professional cake shop. "Ah, they look great! I can't help myself!" Wu Tian picked up one of them, took a bite, and his eyes widened immediately, "Delicious, really delicious! Melt-in-your-mouth, full of flavor~~! Better than the ones made in cake shops."
Zhuo Wenjun heard this and smiled slightly. She was still quite confident in her craftsmanship, otherwise she wouldn't have come to 'show off'!
"But...!" Wu Tian glanced at Zhuo Wenjun, then casually added a sentence, "Compared to Chen Chen's cooking, it's still slightly inferior. When I have time, I'll let her make a few dishes for you to try."
Zhuo Wenjun's smile stiffened on his face and then quickly retracted, saying faintly, "Okay."
In the past, when Wu Tian met Zhuo Wenjun, he had a lot to say, like a loudspeaker. However, today, he didn't have much to say, and it's unclear whether the loudspeaker ran out of battery or if the cake was so delicious that it blocked his mouth. In short, he didn't say anything and just kept eating cake.
For a moment, the room was quiet, with no one speaking, only the sound of Wu Tian eating pastries.
Zhuo Wenjun took advantage of drinking coffee to secretly glance at Wu Tian opposite him, using this opportunity to observe Wu Tian.
It's clear that today's Wu Tian is different from before. Apart from not wanting her to enter the Tianzheng Building, he also doesn't take the initiative to talk to her, which is another unusual behavior. Also, taking this snack as an example, he ate very quickly, as if he couldn't wait to finish eating and have her leave quickly.
Zhuo Wenjun realized that Wu Tian was acting strangely today. If this continued, he might have to leave after finishing his cup of coffee.
"Recently I haven't seen Mr. Wu, I don't know what Mr. Wu is busy with?" Zhuo Wenjun asked, and in the case of Wu Tian's silence, she chose to take the initiative.
"What can I be busy with? Just being busy for nothing!" Wu Tian said while lowering his head to eat.
"Still groping in the dark? Mr. Wu has now obtained the experimental records of Plan X, will he still be groping in the dark?" Zhuo Wenjun said calmly, "Mr. Wu has been dedicated to the research of Project A for many years, and Project A and Plan X have many similarities, I think Mr. Wu is no longer groping in the dark, but rather working with his eyes open."
"Haha, that's true." Wu Tian said with a smile, "However, although I got the experimental records of the X plan, it will still take some time to digest. After all, this is not like memorizing texts for elementary school students. There are many things in here that I need to experiment with before I can fully understand the content. In short, it's very complicated and tiring."
"It's actually a good thing to be busy, it's much better than having nothing to do." Zhuo Wenjun said, "I see Mr. Wu has a tired look on his face and dark circles under his eyes, didn't he sleep well last night?"
"It wasn't just last night. Since I got the experiment records, I haven't slept much. Last night I only slept for two hours and then got up to work again." Wu Tian pointed to his own head, "You know, in our line of work, once you have an idea in your mind, you can't sleep all night, and if you don't finish it, you won't be able to rest easy."
"Mr. Wu should take good care of himself and get plenty of rest, after all, one's body is the capital of revolution, don't exhaust yourself." Zhuo Wenjun said to Wu Tian, "However, seeing Mr. Wu so tired and busy, there must be some major breakthrough in the project, right? I think you look like you're too excited to sleep!"
"Haha, the one who knows me is Wen Jun!" Wu Tian said with a smug face, sucking his fingers and looking at Zhuo Wenjun. "You can't say that, after getting the experimental records, my A project has made some progress. Professor Huo Zhenlin won't be an expert in this field, but his simple words often make me suddenly enlightened, just like a bright lamp suddenly lit up on a dark night road, and everything becomes clear before my eyes. Unfortunately, Professor Huo left too early, otherwise I would have to chat with him for ten days and nights."
"Really?"
"Of course," Wu Tian said, then looked at Zhuo Wenjun with a puzzled expression. "What, Miss Zhuo doesn't believe?"
"No." Zhuo Wenjun took a sip of her coffee and said lightly, "Mr. Wu is a genius, how could I not believe him?" But her face was extremely cold.
Wu Tianyi took a look and became anxious. He wiped his hands with a paper towel, stood up, and said loudly to Zhuo Wenjun, "Come on, follow me to the lab, I'll let you see how far Project A has progressed, guaranteed to surprise you."
"Boss," said Fang Hua, who had been silent until now, "isn't this going too far? The lab is the company's most important place, and even I..."!
"What's wrong with that? Miss Zhuo isn't an outsider. You, how can you compare yourself to Miss Zhuo?"
"But...!"
"There's no room for argument, I'm the boss, what I say goes!" Wu Tian said coldly.
Fang Hua lowered his head and said nothing more.
Zhuo Wenjun looked at Wu Tian and then at Fang Hua, opening his mouth to say, "Mr. Wu, Wenjun still won't go, don't make things difficult for Miss Fang."
"It's nothing difficult." Wu Tian shook his head and pulled Zhuo Wenjun's hand to walk outside, saying as they walked, "Let's go, to the lab."
Zhuo Wenjun's body trembled, she struggled hard for a few times, but failed to break free. Just as she was about to speak, she saw Fang Hua lowering her head and gazing at her with jealousy, as if she had snatched away her precious treasure. Zhuo Wenjun wasn't stupid, she immediately understood the implication in Fang Hua's eyes. So, she stopped struggling and allowed Wu Tian to pull her out of the office.
"Bang!" The door closed, and Fang Hua was left alone in the office.
Fang Hua stood alone for a while, slowly took out a mirror from her pocket, looked at it, and when she saw the flushed and angry woman inside, she suddenly burst out laughing.
Hehe~~!
She laughed for half a minute, and finally put away her smile. She smoothed out the hair in front of her forehead, then made various expressions in front of the mirror: anger, indignation, grievance, pitifulness, and so on. Finally, she settled on jealousy. Satisfied with her current expression, she put away the mirror and left the office.
