Chapter 555: Chapter 549: Jumping into the Yellow River Won’t Wash It Clean Chapter 555: Chapter 549: Jumping into the Yellow River Won’t Wash It Clean Jiang Xin knew the dicine bottle she had could not possibly be the important pharmaceutical missing from the Biotechnology Laboratory, but the dicine had already been taken there for inspection. When she went to cooperate with the investigation, she had said that the substance was not hers, and now it was simply a matter of reiterating that fact.
So, by now, the dicine bottle must have been under inspection. Those in the lab were all tech moguls; determining what the inspected dicine truly was should be a matter of minutes.
If they discovered what this dicine was, not only would she be unable to remain at the base, but she would also never be able to hold her head high again.
Director Lin didn’t ask further, simply nodding and saying, “We’ve inconvenienced you today. You can go back once we have identified what the substance is.”
He then had bedding and toiletries delivered. Jiang Xin’s expression darkened, but she was powerless and unable to contact the outside world.
The identity of the dicine was quickly confird by the Biotechnology Laboratory.
When Director Lin went to retrieve the test results, he was indeed surprised. Therefore, when Director Lin held the identification results and the dicine bottle, his expression was quite peculiar.
That evening, he secretly said to his wife, “It’s really surprising, I never would’ve thought Jiang Xin was this kind of person, to have such dicine at hand. Is it for her own use or for Han Chengfeng?”
“Why do you care who it’s for? That woman is just trouble. There are plenty of beautiful and talented won out there, but relying on her looks, she expects everyone to fawn over her. She just rubs the wrong way.”
His wife had no good impression of Jiang Xin, so when she heard about the situation, she imdiately had a lot to say. Director Lin hurriedly whispered a warning, “Don’t talk about this to anyone.”
Director Lin’s wife scoffed, “Even if you told to spread the word, I’d be too embarrassed to.”
Jiang Xin was quickly released; Han Chengfeng had stepped forward to claim that the dicine bottle had been unintentionally left in Jiang Xin’s dorm by him.
As for why he possessed such dicine, Han Chengfeng’s explanation was that a friend had deceived him…
Regardless, his story was full of holes, but as he persisted with his version, no one could do anything about it.
But Jiang Xin truly loathed Han Chengfeng now.
She had insisted that she knew nothing about the item, ready to claim that soone had frad her. With an opportunity, her family could intervene and smoothly settle the matter without anyone being the wiser.
However, Han Chengfeng’s intervention made it impossible to clear her na even if she jumped into the Yellow River.
Moreover, their supposed relationship was now labeled, seemingly impossible to tear off.
This was not what Jiang Xin had intended.
The dicine was not yet regulated by the state to be forbidden for personal possession and use, so it was returned to Han Chengfeng.
Holding the dicine bottle, a hint of jealousy flickered in Han Chengfeng’s eyes, yet he said nothing and instead made a call to Beijing.
Half a month later, both he and Jiang Xin were transferred.
Tenghai Research Base was never short of talent in any field, so soon enough, candidates for the director and deputy director of the Cultural Palace were selected.
Then, the incident involving Jiang Xin also ca to a complete conclusion.
It was only when Jiang Xin was leaving that she found out everyone knew about the matter.
Her departure was quite embarrassing.
Perhaps she would never return to the research base in her lifeti?
As for the important lost dicine, no one cared by now. The martial law had been lifted, which must an it had been found.
Everyone covertly enjoyed discussing the matter.
Qiao Qingyu also hadn’t expected the issue to be resolved in such a way, but it had to be said that this outco was the best.
For her and He Xiuyu, nabbing people with bait and toying with law enforcent were actions only fools would undertake.
Once tainted with a man-woman scandal, the stain was indeed impossible to wash away.
Besides, this wasn’t ant for experints.
…
Wang Laogen drove the horse-drawn cart, loaded with lons, straight to Qiao Qingyu’s house. He was now a worker at the Tenghai Research Base and no longer needed to call ahead; he simply brought the cart directly to her front door.
The waterlons were a new variety, also promoted from Qiao Qingyu’s Space Laboratory.
Thanks to the long hours of sunlight, coupled with favorable weather this year, the more than a thousand acres of waterlon yielded a bountiful harvest.
There was no need to haul them out for sale, as many people took advantage of their off-work or holiday ti to go directly to the waterlon fields to buy the fruit.
Because of this, Old Xie had specially placed soone there to manage the paynts and keep the accounts.
Waterlons were seasonal, and the ti was just these few days.
But in just these few days, this area of the waterlon field sold for quite a sum.
Wang Laogen hurriedly brought over a cart of waterlons; otherwise, the first batch of ripe lons would be snatched up entirely, the second batch sowhat less so, and all that remained now was the underripe ones.
That night, Little Chaoxuan ate a bit too much waterlon. He lived with his mom and dad, and in the morning, the little guy cried out with a “wah,” startling both Qiao Qingyu and He Xiuyu, who quickly sat up in bed.
To prevent catching a cold in the stomach, the child was always dressed in a vest for sleep.
They then saw a wet patch on the vest wrapped around his butt.
He Xiuyu looked at the bed and saw what looked like a drawn map. Little Chaoxuan was crying miserably, pointing at He Xiuyu with an aggrieved expression, “Mama, Papa wet the bed.”
He Xiuyu, “…”
Seeing the child cry so pitifully, Qiao Qingyu quickly picked up Little Chaoxuan and skillfully removed the urine-soaked vest, while also saying, “Don’t cry, look, Papa wet the bed and he isn’t crying…”
He Xiuyu watched mother and son in stunned silence.
He had sothing to say initially, but it unexpectedly turned into his own doing.
It just goes to show that “bear children” aren’t about whether you teach them; it’s in their bones.
From that day on, He Xiuyu arranged study tasks for Little Chaoxuan.
He originally wanted to wait a bit longer, but with the child’s energy so abundant, his little head whirling with idle curiosity all day, wasn’t it necessary to find him so tasks?
Recite ancient poems, count 12345, phonetics aoe…
Then He Xiuyu and Qiao Qingyu discovered that the child already knew dozens of poems by heart, understood phonetics and numbers, and could do arithtic within ten.
The couple looked at each other, and Qiao Qingyu asked her son in amazent, “Who taught you all this?”
She was ho every day, and under her watchful eye, the child had learned so much without her knowing.
And why hadn’t the child ever shown off his poetry recitation skills to them?
“Brother and sister taught ,” Little Chaoxuan answered nonchalantly, then eagerly asked, “So can I go out to play now?”
He Xiuyu waved his hand, “Go ahead.”
The little guy cheered and ran out to et up with Xiao Hu and Rongrong.
Wu Qianyun was also astonished and asked the parents, “You really didn’t know?”
Qiao Qingyu asked Wu Qianyun, “Mom, did you know beforehand?”
Wu Qianyun looked at the two helpless individuals, “I thought you two knew all along.”
