The Chosen System: Counterattack with Husband

At the same time in China, the sky of Lucheng, the capital of Hui Province, was completely different.

After properly placing all the instruments and equipment, He Jiayin, wearing a standard white coat, breathed a sigh of relief, carefully locked the door of the instrument room, and went to the women's locker room to change out of the clothes she wore almost every day.

After changing my clothes and taking out my bag and mobile phone which I had put on silent mode in the locker, I noticed that the screen showed several calls from unfamiliar numbers with unknown locations.

After a busy day, He Jiayin felt that the probability of receiving harassing calls from the same number was not very high, but after a day's work, no matter how focused she was on her work, she felt a little tired, so she did not do much about this strange number, but skillfully added it to the blacklist.

When walking out of the door of Wangwei Technology Company, He Jiayin looked up at the sky that had been dyed dark blue, and then he realized that he had worked overtime for several hours without realizing it.

Before Chairman Xu left Hua Xia for Yidali, he had explained that Wangwei’s main research direction could currently focus on the research of high-precision lithography machines.

During the days that Xu Yiyu was away, He Jiayin had been assisting his colleagues in the same research group in their research work day after day.

As a person with a science and engineering background, He Jiayin has always been extremely serious and rigorous in his attitude towards scientific research.

There was only one thing that had troubled her a little lately.

——He Jiayin, the ultimate i-person who was not good at handling interpersonal relationships, really didn't know how to get along with Yu Yan, a great senior whom he hadn't seen for a long time.

Although she was slow to react to things other than her professional work, she was aware that both Yu Yan's colleagues and her own colleagues were intentionally or unintentionally putting her and Yu Yan on the same track and leading the topic in the same direction.

She asked herself if she rejected these things, but the answer was always no.

Having just ended a failed relationship, she didn't seem to be averse to contacting this senior whom she had a vague crush on during their student days.

He Jiayin was absent-minded for a moment because of thinking about these things, and in a trance, he felt as if someone was calling him not far away.

"He Jiayin? He Jiayin!"

He Jiayin subconsciously looked in the direction where the voice came from with a dazed look in his eyes, but what he saw was a face that had appeared in his mind a moment ago.

——It’s Yu Yan.

Seeing a hint of worry flash across Yu Yan's eyes, who usually had no expression on his face, He Jiayin suddenly became completely sober.

"Ah, sorry, senior. I was lost in thought just now and just heard you calling me."

After coming to his senses, He Jiayin did not immediately ask Yu Yan why he appeared downstairs of Wangwei Building at this time, but instinctively apologized to Yu Yan for his distraction.

"…It's okay, as long as you're okay."

The worry in Yu Yan's eyes flashed away, as if it had never appeared. The hand that had just been raised to protect He Jiayin also slowly fell down.

Just now, He Jiayin almost missed the step because of her distraction. He guessed that He Jiayin was working overtime today. If he hadn't walked here by some unknown reason and happened to see this scene, he might not have called her name so eagerly.

His junior schoolmate has always been a slow-tempered person, and he doesn't want to scare her with his recklessness.

"Why are you here today, Senior? Is there any work that needs to be done nearby?"

He Jiayin, who had just finished overtime, had a slightly slow brain reaction. It took him a while before he remembered to ask Yu Yan why he was here.

She didn't think too much when she asked, and she didn't consider the fact that Yu Yan came here specially as a possibility for his appearance at the door of Wangwei.

"Yes."

At the moment, Yu Yan was actually quite grateful for his icy face which usually had no expression. Besides being able to use expression to directly repel those who approached with ulterior motives, it also allowed him to conceal his guilty conscience and lies from others.

He Jiayin, whose brain's information processing speed had finally returned to normal, looked at Yu Yan, who was standing not far from him with a briefcase and no expression on his face, and suddenly realized something.

"Um...senior, if you don't have anything to do, would you like to take a walk together?"

Showing up here so late at night, as a technical worker, the possibility of Yu Yan having a job nearby is actually close to zero. He Jiayin just realized this.

Yu Yan, who had already been thinking of sending He Jiayin home, felt the kindness emanating from his schoolmate. His face froze for a second, and he nodded expressionlessly, letting He Jiayin move to the inside of the sidewalk very naturally.

Although he has recently resumed contact with He Jiayin and they meet occasionally, Yu Yan's attitude remains the same as usual. Even though he will subconsciously take care of this junior, he will hide this "care" very deeply.

He himself is not a person who likes to be pushed forward by others. Everyone has his own pace to adapt to, and naturally he will not do things to others that he dislikes.

He was also aware that an invitation like He Jiayin's today was already the limit of what this junior schoolmate could do given the current closeness of their relationship.

He Jiayin also realized this. As she walked side by side with Yu Yan, her cheeks were slightly flushed even under the cover of night.

Ever since she reunited with her senior, she could vaguely feel that the atmosphere between her and Yu Yan was different from when they were in school.

But she couldn't quite put her finger on what the difference was.

Two people with their own thoughts were walking slowly in Lucheng at nearly ten o'clock. They talked and chatted in a sporadic manner. The atmosphere did not cool down, but it was not particularly warm either.

This "casual walk" that neither of them wanted to end so soon finally came to an end when He Jiayin looked up and saw the gate of his building.

"Senior, I..."

"Hey, I was wondering why I didn't see anyone after waiting for so long, it turns out she was having a sweet date with another man."

He Jiayin wanted to say something, but her words were abruptly interrupted by a voice with a hint of sarcasm.

Yu Yan glanced coldly towards the apartment building where the sound came from, and slowly moved two steps towards the direction of the apartment building, blocking the sight of He Jiayin who was looking over there.

People like Chen Ze are not worth He Jiayin spending even a little bit of energy to deal with.

He Jiayin's memory was evoked by this deeply familiar yet deeply disgusting voice. Although her view was blocked by Yu Yan, she almost subconsciously tiptoed and looked over Yu Yan's shoulder to see clearly the person and face walking out of the apartment building.

When Chen Ze saw He Jiayin being protected firmly behind Yu Yan, he smiled sarcastically, walked forward a few steps, and stopped when he was only about two meters away from the two of them.

The moment He Jiayin met Chen Ze's gaze, her stomach and intestines suddenly felt a reflexive cramp, and she subconsciously had the urge to dry heave.

"Go away. I don't want to say it again."

Ever since his true identity was exposed by Xu Yiyu that day, Chen Ze and Qian Wen were kicked out of the company in disgrace, and He Jiayin hasn't seen him for a while.

The moment Yu Yan saw this shameless guy walking out of the apartment building, he almost couldn't resist the urge to punch him in the face.

How dare this scumbag appear in He Jiayin's sight!

He should disappear completely from He Jiayin's life like a qualified scumbag ex.
