Chapter 6 Shower, and Then

  • Liang Keke was a typical young lady who was born with a silver spoon in her mouth. Besides the frustration she had pursuing Huo Ciyi, she never experienced any obstacles in life.
  • Liang Keke had never seen so many jars and bottles in her whole life. As she flirtatiously hugged Huo Ciyi's waist, she deliberately acted intrigued by asking about everything.
  • Naturally, Huo Ciyi wasn't going to explain, so Jiang Mucheng had to be troubled to do it.
  • The more Jiang Mucheng seemed unbothered, the more it infuriated Liang Keke. This damn woman! Three years ago, she definitely utterly defeated her and Huo Ciyi undoubtedly feels nothing but hate for her. But then, how is she able to live completely fine?
  • "What's this thing?"
  • Liang Keke pointed at the object under the microscope. Her finger was just about to touch it.
  • The microscope was extremely expensive. Jiang Mucheng's heart tensed up.
  • "It's a microscope used specifically for neurosurgery. You're pointing at the microscope objective. It's something that you mustn't touch."
  • Liang Keke was already in a bad mood but when Jiang Mucheng said that, she got even angrier. "Who the hell are you? You dare talk to me like that?" She said, pointing at Jiang Mucheng's nose.
  • Jiang Mucheng felt bewildered by Liang Keke's sudden outburst.
  • "I was just giving you a kind reminder. If you don't care, then forget it. If you must touch it, then do so. Besides, you don't care about things worth hundreds of thousands. It's something you can get by acting cute or sleeping with someone," she retaliated swiftly.
  • "You!" Liang Keke instantly got so mad that she became speechless.
  • In contrast, Huo Ciyi stood to one side and couldn't help but chuckle, as he watched Jiang Mucheng effortlessly attack Laing Keke with words.
  • From what he remembered, she wasn't this articulate and aggressive.
  • Interesting.
  • Jiang Mucheng glanced intensely at Huo Ciyi, and didn't say anything more. She spun around and continued to walk deeper into the lab.
  • No one knows where the shoe pinches, but he who wears it.
  • Huo Ciyi followed her deeper and Liang Keke hurriedly caught up. They took one turn, and finished three laps.
  • A few more turns and it was about time they left. In the end, the three of them toured several times around the lab but Huo Ciyi showed no intention of leaving.
  • Eventually, Liang Keke got bored, so she hugged Huo Ciyi's arm and flirted with him. "Let's go Ciyi. It's really boring here. I want to go home, take a shower, and then..."
  • She sounded so incredibly flirtatious that it disgusted Jiang Mucheng.
  • But, she also sighed in relief.
  • These troublesome people were finally about to leave.
  • Huo Ciyi saw Jiang Mucheng relax.
  • What? Was it going to make her that happy for him to leave?
  • "Keke, be good. This investment isn't a joke. I can't take this lightly."
  • Having not achieved her objective, Liang Keke held her anger rather than dare speak up. She was mad but she pretended to give Huo Ciyi some space.
  • Huo Ciyi smiled at Liang Keke but didn't reach his hand out to hold hers.
  • Thereafter, the three of them walked inseparably.
  • With everything that happened all early afternoon, Jiang Mucheng was also a little tired and inevitably a little distracted.
  • Liang Keke wandered off on hew own to the corner of the lab.
  • Then, she looked at the row of labelled reagents above.
  • Beside being rather advanced in their research, Renxin Hospital was also the best in plastic surgery.
  • She read the labels on the reagents with curiosity. From their brief descriptions, she learned that they were pure celery juice extracts in the petri dishes. It was a new kind of experiment on skin whitening.
  • Then, she spun around and looked over at Jiang Mucheng, who was tidying something up. She couldn't help but smile.
  • Her eyes were transfixed on the bottle with the corrosion label. That entire row had empty test tubes that were sterilised and unused.
  • She couldn't forget how Jiang Mucheng embarrassed her earlier.
  • She always competed with Jiang Mucheng.
  • She competed for Huo Ciyi and always hoped that she could crush Jiang Mucheng. Better yet, make it so that Jiang Mucheng never had the chance to come back.
  • The light green celery juice shimmered. Whilst nobody was paying attention, she took the chance to gently and carefully grab the cotton bud and wiped a little onto her hand. A tiny part of her skin instantly turned red.
  • She was allergic to celery. This happened to prove that it was real celery juice.
  • After she confirmed what it was, Liang Keke quickly dipped the celery juice into the corrosion test tube.
  • Then, she silently turned around and deliberately walked in the direction where Jiang Mucheng was concentrating to face her for a moment.
  • Jiang Mucheng didn't know that Liang Keke had something in her hands, but immediately turned towards her as she walked over.
