Chapter 136: Life is like a play, all depends on acting skills

  Wu Tian pulled Zhuo Wenjun to the experimental area. Although they had arrived, Wu Tian still didn't let go of Zhuo Wenjun's soft and cool little hand. On such a hot summer day, having such a small hand in his grasp was so comfortable, even more comfortable than air conditioning.

  In the lounge outside the laboratory, you can see the situation inside the laboratory through the glass window. The members of Wu Tian's R&D team are conducting experiments and are completely immersed in their research, without noticing that there are two more people outside the window.

  "See?" Wu Tian pointed to his subordinates in the laboratory and said, "They are conducting itemized experiments based on the descriptions in the X Plan experiment records. In addition to verifying the content of the experiment records, they are also distinguishing between the X Plan and our A project...!"

  Zhuo Wenjun appeared to be indifferent on the surface, but in reality, her eyes were carefully observing everything in the laboratory. Although she was the head of Donghua and a manager, she still had some knowledge of medicinal chemistry. This was her characteristic: when entering an industry, she would investigate it thoroughly, even if she couldn't master everything, she would at least understand its basic principles. After joining Donghua, she often went to the R&D department to learn from the elites there, not only to enrich herself but also to enable herself to better understand the value of various plans and make accurate judgments about whether they were worth continuing.

  "They look very busy." Zhuo Wenjun said lightly.

  "Yes. Professor Huo Zhenlin's experiment records brought them too many new and unknown things, they are all science maniacs, seeing that thing is like being possessed by a demon, not figuring out the things on the experiment record, they can't sleep soundly." Wu Tian said with a smile, "They have been working continuously for half a month, eating and sleeping here, resting only two or three hours a day, it's common for them to go without rest for two or three days. Actually, I'm the same, if Miss Zhuo hadn't come, I'd still be inside now."

  "Miss Zhuo didn't make an appointment in advance, I'm afraid we've disturbed Mr. Wu." Zhuo Wenjun apologized to Wu Tian, but her eyes never left the laboratory, where she was trying to infer what experiment might be underway based on the instruments being used by the people inside.

  Actually, the purpose of each instrument is very single-minded. If you don't know about the research project, you can't guess what experiment is being conducted at all. However, Zhuo Wenjun now knows that Project X is for researching new compound entities to inhibit cancer cell proliferation. Based on this point, an old hand can basically judge what test or experiment the instrument is doing.

  Zhuo Wenjun was still quite familiar with these instruments. When the staff came to help with the 'maintenance' earlier, they reported back to her afterwards, so she had a clear understanding of each instrument's name in her mind. Of course, as a beginner, although she knew the names and purposes of the instruments, she didn't know what specific experiments were being conducted inside. So now she could only remember each instrument and the actions of everyone inside, then go back to the company and study with the R&D department to decipher them.

  "Miss Zhuo, look at what you're saying, we're among ourselves, what's the fuss about?" Wu Tian said, "You came, and I'm just relaxing, being tense all day, my face has become stiff. Just now when I came out of the lab, they said I looked like a zombie, do you think so?"

  Zhuo Wenjun smiled faintly and didn't respond. It wasn't because Wu Tian now looked like a zombie, but because she was drawn to something inside.

  She saw one of the researchers pick up a notebook from the table, looking at it seriously, with an expression that kept changing, sometimes puzzled, sometimes thoughtful, sometimes excited, and sometimes dazed, looking like a madman. But as someone who had dealt with researchers before, she was very clear in her heart that this was a manifestation of the research institute being completely immersed in the content written in the notebook.

  What's on this book that makes the research institute so obsessed?

  "What is he looking at? So silly!" Zhuo Wenjun asked Wu Tian with a naive expression.

  Wu Tian looked in the direction that Zhuo Wenjun pointed, then said, "Oh, it's the experimental records of Plan X. I made a copy of those records, now everyone has one. This way, it helps to improve work efficiency. Otherwise, so many people would be fighting over one copy, what a hassle."

  Copied?

  When Wu Tian's words were heard, Zhuo Wenjun's eyes lit up and then immediately hid again.

  "You've copied so many, aren't you worried they'll take them out?" Zhuo Wenjun asked. "You should know that the experimental records of X Plan are very important to many people. If they spread out, it will be very unfavorable to your Tianzheng's research. So for this kind of thing, the fewer the better."

  "Spread out? Hehe, how can it spread out? These people have followed me for so many years, they won't betray me." Wu Tian said confidently.

  "Oh? Really?" Zhuo Wenjun smiled slightly.

  That's not necessarily the case... Zhuo Wenjun thought to herself. In her opinion, there is nothing absolute in this world. If someone insists on something, it's only because the price isn't high enough to move their heart. If a suitable, or even extremely high price is offered, Zhuo Wenjun doesn't believe that no one would be moved. In her intelligence department, there are many examples of this kind, and it can even be said that such things happen every day, every moment.

  Actually, during this period of time, she had been sending people to get close to the members of Wu Tian's R&D department. However, for such a long time, not a single member came out of the Tianzheng Building, which made it impossible for her subordinates to take action. If they didn't come out of the Tianzheng Building, how could they get close? And if they couldn't get close, how could they 'talk business'?

  Even if we can't get the lab records themselves, we need to get the contents of those records out of these people's heads. This was the task that Zhuo Wenjun had given her intelligence department, but so far they had nothing to show for it.

  However, after seeing Wu Tian's confident appearance, Zhuo Wenjun not only didn't feel distressed but also felt much happier. This way, even if they were to get on the bridge, no one would suspect them. At that time, she could reap the benefits of the fisherman's gain!

  Zhuo Wenjun looked at the people in the laboratory and a meaningful smile appeared on his face.

  "The body is the capital of revolution, Mr. Wu needs to rest more and not overwork himself. After all, a laboratory like this is full of radiation, which is bad for one's health." Zhuo Wenjun suddenly showed concern and said to Wu Tian, "Don't be too desperate."

  "Ah, I know. Thank you for your concern, I'm so happy." Wu Tian tightly grasped Zhuo Wenjun's hand and put it to his lips, with a grateful expression on his face.

  Zhuo Wenjun smiled and this time did not struggle.

  Adhering to the principle of "not taking advantage of a good thing is stupid", Wu Tian continued to knead Zhuo Wenjun's small hand, and even the fortune teller didn't examine it as carefully as Wu Tian did.

  Zhuo Wenjun was still unaccustomed to this situation, Wu Tian being the first man to hold her hand. Originally not used to it, she had been enduring it all along, but now with Wu Tian's caress, she felt even more uncomfortable. This discomfort wasn't just in her hand, but also in her heart.

  Today, she had asked and looked around, Zhuo Wenjun was ready to leave. So, she secretly exerted her strength, preparing to shake off Wu Tian's hand, then bid farewell, and return to discuss with the R&D department of the company about everything she saw today.

  Just as she was about to make an effort, Wu Tian spoke up.

  "Come, sit down, I'll tell you about the experimental process of the project."

  Zhuo Wenjun heard and slightly stunned, the force in his hand immediately relaxed, letting Wu Tian hold it.

  Wu Tian pulled Zhuo Wenjun to a nearby table and sat down. When he saw the various books spread out on the table, he frowned tightly and looked at Fang Hua standing outside the door, "What's going on? It's such a mess?"

  "Boss, this is the material you used for the meeting this morning. You didn't say anything, so I didn't dare to take it," Fang Hua said quietly. "Besides, according to your rules, except for people from the R&D department, others are not allowed to enter the laboratory, and even the rest room is not allowed."

  "What's going on here? Still talking about rules? Haven't you seen Miss Zhuo arrive? Hurry up and come in, put these things away!" Wu Tian said sternly.

  "Yes...yes..." Fang Hua replied with a bowed head, his face full of grievance.

  Materials for this morning's meeting?

  Zhuo Wenjun's eyes glanced at the notebook on the desk after hearing Wu Tian and Fang Hua's conversation, and he was stunned.

  Is that... an experiment record?

  Zhuo Wenjun slightly straightened her back, carefully looked over and although she was not certain if it was the experimental records of X Plan, but based on the experimental records she had seen in her own company, the way things were recorded on the desktop, as well as various supplementary writings and drawings, they were basically the same as what she had seen.

  She was very clear about the situation here at Wu Tian, and the research content had only one, Project A. In other words, no matter what was on the table, whether it was an experimental record or not, it was all related to Project A and Plan X.

  At this point, Zhuo Wenjun stood up and said to Wu Tian, "Don't bother Miss Fang anymore, let me do it." With one hand held by Wu Tian, Zhuo Wenjun used the other hand to help Wu Tian 'organize' the documents on the table.

  "That's troubling Miss Zhuo." Wu Tian said with a smile, then turned his face cold and shouted at Fang Hua, "Look, look how hardworking Miss Wu is? She's a guest, yet she helps us tidy up the table. Where should I put my face as the boss? Hmm? Are you ashamed or not? Let me tell you, from now on, whenever you see a messy place, clean it up immediately, got it?"

  "Yes, boss!" Fang Hua pouted, her eyes red and on the verge of tears.

  "Huh? You still feel wronged, huh? Let me tell you, Fang Hua...!" Wu Tian pointed at Fang Hua and began to lecture her, mentioning all the hardworking women from ancient times to the present, while also citing many negative examples for Fang Hua to take as a warning. He then proceeded to give Fang Hua a thorough ideological education on two major points, six minor points, and twelve even smaller points. Only when Fang Hua burst into tears of grievance and stormed out did he finally stop lecturing.

  Zhuo Wenjun also relied on his super strong memory and memorized more than a dozen pages of content.
