Lantern Sister is still very capable.

Chapter 149 Origin

"What does your father do for a living?" Chu Deng casually started a conversation, taking Shang Yan's hand as they walked towards the medical room.

Shang Yan didn't dare to break free. The scene of the young lady in front of him punishing the crazy man was still vivid in his mind. He obediently let Chu Deng hold his wrist. "My father studies biology."

"Oh, that major is quite relevant to this place." After all, there are parasites in the Southeast Sea. "What's your dad's name? Which research institute does he work at?" I'll have someone check his background later.

Faced with Chu Deng's questions, which were as if he were checking his household registration, Shang Yan answered fluently, "My father's name is Sheng Shixiong, and he works at the Canaan Research Institute."

Isn't his surname Pei?

A hint of disappointment flashed in Chu Deng's eyes. She looked down at the child and thought: Is it really just a resemblance?

Raindrops suddenly began to fall from the sky. The weather in Guangdong Province in June is always unpredictable, and it started to drizzle at this time.

Chu Deng grabbed Shang Yan, forcing his feet off the ground. Shang Yan looked up at Chu Deng in alarm, asking, "What...what does it have to do with me?"

One of them couldn't hold back and even let slip a bit of his local accent.

"It's raining, let's hurry." Chu Deng replied calmly, dragging the child along as they rushed towards the medical room. A moment after they stepped into the medical room, a torrential downpour began.

But the two people who had just entered were not paying attention to the weather outside, but were drawn to the conversation in the medical room.

Shang Yan sniffed and whispered, "My mom."

Chu Deng glanced at his timid appearance, thinking, "If only he had known this would happen, he wouldn't have done it in the first place."

"Excuse me, everyone, I apologize on behalf of these three children. It's really too much trouble for you. This is just a small gift, Ah Zhu!" In the medical room, a woman in a suit spoke softly. She was charming, graceful, and spoke with propriety. Her long, slightly wavy black hair was loose, and she wore a magnolia flower as an ornament in her hair, giving her the charm of a Hong Kong beauty.

"Sister Hong." A short man standing behind her responded when he heard the woman call him.

"Quickly distribute the gifts to the doctors," Sister Hong said with a smile. "Doctor, I'll go check on the two children first. Please call me when Shang Yan returns."

"Okay, okay." Cai Zhizhi, who had been forced to accept a gift by Ah Zhu, replied repeatedly, scratching her head in a sorry state. She watched Sister Hong enter the isolation room inside, and after she left, she quickly stuffed the gift back into Ah Zhu's hands, "I'm sorry, Mr. Ah Zhu, we have a rule that we don't accept gifts."

Ah Zhu clearly understood and didn't try to give her anything more. Instead, he placed the gift on the table next to him and said tactfully, "Okay, could you please tell us your organization's official account number? We'll arrange for someone to deliver the banner later."

This is something I really can't refuse.

Cai Zhizhi quickly gave Ah Zhu the contact number of the person in charge of publicity, unable to suppress her smile, "Thank you in advance."

Her best friend probably won't have to worry about promotional materials for a long time. This matter can be promoted in various ways for half a year, and it will be posted on the official website of the Guangdong Provincial Superpower Base for at least three months.

"Of course," Ah Zhu said politely, then turned to see Shang Yan at the door. "Xiao Yan is here. Your mother is inside looking after Xiao Wang and Xiao Meng. She'll be out in a bit."

Shang Yan opened his mouth as if to say something, but Chu Deng pressed his head down, saying, "Let's do the examination first."

Cai Zhizhi led the two away, and Azhu could only watch the three of them leave.

Because the equipment was complete and the inspection was quick, Chu Deng didn't have time to communicate with Cai Zhizhi, nor did he have time to ask Shang Yan about his mother's background.

Logically, Chu Deng should have gone to her shift after the examination was completed, but because she had something on her mind, she didn't leave and sat in the medical room drinking the tea that Cai Zhizhi had poured for her.

The aroma of tea filled the medical room. Ah Zhu twisted his neck to look at Chu Deng, who was holding a teacup, and abruptly asked, "Madam, if I may ask, what kind of tea are you drinking? It smells really good. To be honest, I also love drinking tea. This aroma is really strong; it's really awakening my craving."

The man spoke politely and used extremely courteous language, which sounded somewhat stiff to Chu Deng. She looked back at him uncomfortably, but was shocked by the almost overflowing greed in A Zhu's eyes.
