Chen Gu was astonished. "Teacher is so rich?"
"When Teacher was younger, he road the world with the Principal. He had participated in hunts for super life forms alone on three occasions. His family’s wealth is very substantial," Bai Shengyuan said with a smile.
"Moreover, all of Teacher’s research topics are Star Nation’s top-secret key projects, allowing access to many influential people. These research topics also greatly help professionals broaden their horizons and solidify their foundations. It can be said that staying with Teacher for three years will bring imasurable benefits to your future developnt!"
All the way there, Bai Shengyuan kept introducing the various facilities while also praising Teacher’s abilities and status to Chen Gu.
However, he only briefly ntioned so of Zhong Yuanbei’s "minor flaws."
Chen Gu still felt: I’ve been duped by Bai Yunpeng!
Finally, Bai Shengyuan brought him to a laboratory deep beneath the palace. A short, stocky, and slovenly middle-aged man with dark skin and a ssy mop of hair was bustling between several huge instrunts, busily carrying out various operations.
Before Bai Shengyuan could speak, they heard Zhong Yuanbei roar, "Idiot! Why did you waste so much ti just picking soone up? Co and help ! If you dare to slack off again, watch out, or I’ll smash your head!"
"Yes, Teacher!" Bai Shengyuan tensed up and quickly returned to his position, beginning to cooperate with Teacher on the research.
anwhile, Chen Gu was "forgotten" to the side.
Zhong Yuanbei hadn’t said a word to him.
He didn’t know what to do, but having already gotten a sense of Teacher’s temperant, he just waited obediently to the side, not daring to do or touch anything.
This wait turned into a whole four hours. By the ti it ended, it had already gotten dark outside, and Bai Shengyuan was exhausted. Zhong Yuanbei finally recorded the last piece of data and let out a breath. He then commanded Bai Shengyuan, "Go get so food. We’ll continue after dinner."
"Yes, Teacher."
The weary Bai Shengyuan, who also doubled as Zhong Yuanbei’s "servant," dragged his feet out of the room.
He was already at the Fifth Energy Level, yet a single afternoon of experints had thoroughly exhausted him. It was clear how demanding the experintal tasks were.
Suddenly, Zhong Yuanbei noticed there was another person in the lab and imdiately glared, bellowing, "Who are you? How dare you enter my laboratory without permission!"
Chen Gu: "..."
Bai Shengyuan quickly explained, "Teacher, this is the new junior, your new student."
Zhong Yuanbei beca even angrier. "Nitwit! We were short-handed all afternoon, and you just stood there doing nothing? Don’t you know to co and help proactively?"
Chen Gu: "..."
Bai Shengyuan urgently signaled Chen Gu with his eyes, telling him to apologize to Teacher.
But Chen Gu was completely baffled. What the heck? You left hanging here all afternoon, and now you’re the one blaming ? With that attitude you showed at the start, who would dare interfere with your experint?
This unreasonable, foul temper! I’m not putting up with him anymore!
Chen Gu promptly said, "I want to change ntors..."
"What did you say?!" Zhong Yuanbei flew into a rage. A terrifying aura burst from within him, crashing toward Chen Gu like an unstoppable force. "You’ve entered my Yuanbei Hall, and you think you can just leave?"
Chen Gu complained internally, Is this a den of bandits or sothing?
Then, under the overwhelming aura of his ntor, he snapped to attention and declared loudly, "Teacher, I was wrong! My loyalty to you is absolute!"
Bai Shengyuan gave Chen Gu an appreciative look. Good junior, very promising!
Zhong Yuanbei strode over, hands on his hips, his large, bull-like eyes glaring as he sized up Chen Gu. "You’re not exactly pri material, but you’ll do."
"From today on, you’re in charge of my and your senior brother’s living needs. You must be on call at all tis, and any request we have must be fulfilled within ten minutes!"
"Yes, Teacher, I guarantee I’ll complete the task!" Chen Gu agreed loudly. Damn, if I don’t agree, he’ll really smash my head and personally drag to the hospital for ergency treatnt...
Zhong Yuanbei waved dismissively. "Go get us sothing to eat."
"Yes!" Chen Gu turned and rushed out like the wind. However, when he reached the canteen, he had missed alti; all the stalls had closed.
He looked around in confusion and grabbed a chef at a stall that was closing slowly. "Is there any food left?"
The chef rolled his eyes. "None!"
I’m done for... Chen Gu wailed internally. Teacher will definitely smash my head...
Hearing this familiar phrase, the chef shuddered and asked, "Whose student are you?"
"Zhong Yuanbei."
The chef imdiately nodded frantically, like a chicken pecking grain. "Yes, yes, there’s still food! What do you want? I’ll have it ready in five minutes, guaranteed!"
"Hmm?" Chen Gu realized sothing and looked at the chef. It seems... Teacher is quite infamous throughout the school!
Interesting!
If that’s the case... then don’t bla for using his fearso reputation to my advantage.
Chen Gu quickly ordered a large amount of food, enough to ensure he himself would get full.
The chef’s face fell. "I can’t prepare that much in such a short ti."
Chen Gu said very "amicably," "Just prepare so for now. I’ll take it to Teacher and Senior Brother so they can start eating. Then I’ll co back for the rest."
"Alright, alright," the chef hastily agreed. "Please, little sir, say a few kind words for to Master Zhong. It’s not that I’m delaying on purpose; I genuinely have practical difficulties."
