After exiting the video chat, Mu Shaoling subconsciously turned on the monitoring.
Nian Mu is no longer in the office, he seems to be doing research.
There was nothing interesting in the empty office. Mu Shaoling turned off the surveillance camera, picked up the already cold lunch on the side, took a few bites, and then stopped eating.
The lunch that originally tasted good changed its taste after it cooled down. He, who was always picky about food, naturally did not eat it anymore.
Mu Shaoling threw the lunch box into the trash can, took a sip of the cold coffee, and continued working.
Half an hour later.
Dong Zijun appeared at the door of the laboratory. He did not go in, but stood there and said to the people inside: "Hello, can you please help me call Professor Nian?"
One of the researchers heard this and said to Lei Zhong: "Assistant Lei, Assistant Dong is looking for Professor Nian."
Lei Zhong raised his head from the microscope and saw Dong Zijun at the door. He immediately stood up and said, "Professor Nian is in the training room. Dong Te will help you wait a moment. I will call her out now."
"Okay." Dong Zijun nodded and did not enter the laboratory.
Lei Zhong walked into the training room and told Dong Zijun that he was looking for her.
Without thinking, she walked out and saw Dong Zijun standing at the door of the laboratory. She took off her protective clothing, walked over and asked, "Assistant Dong, do you have anything to do with me?"
"Professor Nian, could you please take a step to speak?" Dong Zijun did not explain his purpose.
Nian Mu nodded and looked back at the researchers in the laboratory. They seemed to be busy doing research, but in fact, their ears perked up, just wanting to know why Dong Zijun was looking for Nian Mu.
.
Seeing her turn around, several people seemed to have received a warning signal and focused on her.
"Then go to my office and talk?" Nian Mu said. Although the office is under surveillance, Dong Zijun must have Mu Shaoling's permission to come to him.
Dong Zijun nodded, and the two of them walked towards Nian Mu's office. Before they reached it, he pulled up her sleeve.
Nianmu expressed doubts about his sudden action.
"Professor Nian, there's no need to go back to your office. Come with me." With that said, Dong Zijun turned and walked towards the elevator.
Nianmu could hear the anxiety in his tone, "What happened?"
"You will know later." Dong Zijun did not say.
Although Nian Mu was confused, she still kept up. She couldn't help but ask: "Then you should tell me where the folk songs are taking me, right?"
"President's office." Dong Zijun said, pressing the elevator button.
Nian Mu stopped following, firstly because they had reached the elevator entrance, and secondly because of his words.
What are you doing in Mu Shaoling's office?
When the elevator arrived at the floor, the elevator door opened. Dong Zijun walked in and turned around. Seeing that Nian Mu had no intention of coming in, and even had doubts on his face, he said: "Professor Nian, the boss needs you."
He didn't say what happened to Mu Shaoling, but said that he needed him. Nianmu had no choice but to walk into the elevator and watched Dong Zijun press the floor. It was indeed the floor where Mu Shaoling's office was located.
Looking at himself reflected in the steel of the elevator, Nian Mu felt not only confused but also worried.
The worry in Dong Zijun's eyes was true, so what happened to Mu Shaoling to need him?
The moment she was thinking about it, the elevator reached the floor and the door slowly opened.
There was no one outside the elevator. When Nian Mu walked out, he originally thought Mu Shaoling would be there, but she and Dong Zijun were the only ones in the entire corridor.
She looked back at Dong Zijun.
Dong Zijun explained: "Professor Nian, the boss is in the office now."
Nian Mu knew where the pastor's office was, but this was her "first time" on this floor, so of course she couldn't show her familiarity with it.
She looked at Dong Zijun and said, "Please lead the way."
Dong Zijun nodded, walked out of the elevator, and led the way.
When he arrived at Mu Shaoling's office, he knocked on the door, then opened the door and walked in.
Nian Mu followed him and walked into the office. She subconsciously looked at the desk, but did not see Mu Shaoling. Her eyes instantly fell on the sofa, and she saw Mu Shaoling lying there.
"What's wrong with Mr. Mu?" she asked.
Mu Shaoling heard her voice, raised his eyelids slightly, and then closed them again. He knew that Dong Zijun would make it clear to him.
Dong Zijun explained: "The boss has a stomach problem. Professor Nian, you know medical skills, can you help me?"
When Nian Mu heard that Mu Shaoling was ill, her heart clenched and she wanted to go forward to check, but she stopped abruptly.
If she steps forward now, will she show too much concern for him?
Nianmu resisted the urge to step forward to check and asked, "Did Mr. Mu not have lunch?"
"I don't know." Dong Zijun shook his head. He had brought him lunch, but I guess Mu Shaoling didn't have anything to eat. They had been having video conferences and he didn't see him eating.
It's too embarrassing to just say that my boss has a stomachache because he didn't eat lunch.
Nian Mu didn't hear Mu Shaoling's answer, so she had an idea in her mind, and asked again: "Do you have any stomach medicine?"
"The boss has taken stomach medicine half an hour ago, but it seems to have no pain-relieving effect. Professor Nian, please see if there is any way to help him relieve the pain. If not, he will go to the hospital." Dong Zijun saw her reaction and was surprised.
Don't be anxious and persuade me quickly.
"I'm not going to the hospital." Mu Shaoling said immediately when he heard that he was going to the hospital.
Listening to his stubborn words, Nianmu felt that he was in terrible pain, yet he refused to go to the hospital for the sake of his own dignity.
She sighed inwardly, leaned forward slightly, and placed her hand on his pulse.
Mu Shaoling felt a warmth and opened his eyes slightly. He happened to see her beautiful face, focusing on taking his pulse.
He closed his eyes again.
Nian Mu stood up straight and said: "Taking medicine can't relieve the pain, so I can only change to another medicine. But I just removed the medicine and it is not good for me to change to another medicine now. How about this, Dong Te will help you go to the pharmacy."
Help me buy a pair of needles."
"Needle?" Dong Zijun was stunned.
Nian Mu nodded, "Acupuncture needles are available in pharmacies. Buy the Huatuo brand ones."
"Okay." Dong Zijun nodded, immediately turned around and walked out of the office. There was a pharmacy nearby, and it would only take him ten minutes to buy it back.
"Mr. Mu, you haven't eaten today, have you?" Nian Mu stood up straight and sat on the single sofa on the other side.
Mu Shaoling did not open his eyes and just said "hmm".
Nian Mu asked again: "In addition to not eating, did you also drink coffee?"
Coffee is a necessity to maintain Mu Shaoling's physical strength. She knows that, so she just wants to confirm it.
