Do nothing

Chapter 22

With Xiao Xianrou blocking the knife, everyone really stopped paying attention to Yan Ke.Everything gradually calmed down, and the flight incident faded out of sight.Yan Ke's daily life is back on track, and the only problem is his father.

His mother had already returned to China, and she called him every now and then to ask him when he would be home.When Yan Ke thought of his father, he resisted very much.Fortunately, the uncle also helped to find the steps, saying that he has never left home since he was a child, and this time he will use it as a training, and only after suffering will he know how happy he is at home.The mother thought about it, so she happily said: Then I won't pay him living expenses.

If the rent of the apartment is not counted, Yan Ke's salary is completely sufficient, but he can't spend as much money as before.Corey's uncle and uncle are not stupid after all, Yan Li must be furious when Yan Ke makes such a big noise this time, so it is reasonable for him to be short of money.After all, everyone is from the same sect, and they are very considerate to this youngest nephew, and they all understand not to ask.

Everything is going in the right direction.

Yu Cheng's new project has also been approved.This time he is doing primary cell culture, and he needs to get materials from animals instead of buying ready-made cell plates.Yu Cheng plans to do his first experiment this Saturday, going into the ultra-clean bench, and ask Yan Ke to be his assistant.

The ultra-clean bench is a clean and sterile negative pressure workbench that has been sterilized by ultraviolet rays. Yan Ke entered the laboratory with his uncle when he was an undergraduate.

Of course he was very happy to be alone with his uncle, the only thing he was worried about was the onset of headache.He didn't want to step off the stage to take the medicine in front of his uncle, and he didn't dare to take it in advance, for fear that his unclear mind would affect the operation.

Such a small matter actually made him anxious to the point of insomnia.

On Friday night, Yan Ke went to bed early, but tossed and turned.He had already taken two sleeping pills, but he still couldn't fall asleep, and his mind was full of scenes where he added the wrong liquid with his own brain, or knocked something over with a trembling hand.Just thinking about it makes my heart beat faster and I feel restless.

Do you want to take some sleeping pills again?

No, no, I also took three tablets at the last commendation meeting, and I overslept the next morning, and my spirits were not good all day long.

But keep on falling asleep like this...

Seeing the clock pointing to twelve o'clock, Yan Ke became more and more anxious.He let out a long sigh, but the distress in his chest did not relieve.So I got up and went to the balcony to blow the air, trying to relax my brain a bit.

The October nights are starting to get cooler.The moon is very large tonight, and leaden gray clouds float slowly in the night sky, and the boundaries of the clouds can be clearly seen.

This is the 27th floor. From the balcony, you can see the vast lake and the street market with lights.He saw cooking smoke on the street, and the supper stalls were at their busiest time, but they were far away from here.

Suddenly I wanted to talk to someone.

But it was already so late, the uncle must have rested, and besides, he didn't know what to talk about with the uncle.

As for Zhang Xingduan?Walking genitals are not considered at all.

As a rich second generation with strict family education, he only understood the importance of good friends and good friends at this time.At least at times like this, there is a group of people who can be summoned by money and nightlife to waste time with him.

Bored, he scrolled through Moments, but he didn't expect that the latest status was the postgraduate entrance exam review materials forwarded by Ling Lu.

And it was 1 minute ago?

Is the deer still up so late?After all, young people, today is Friday again...

Yan Ke has the urge to chat with Xiaolu, but he feels that it is not good to disturb others at this point.So I left a sentence "So hardworking" in that state, and then put down the phone.

The phone vibrated in his pocket.

Yan Ke was a little surprised, but happy.Take it out and see, it really is a deer.

"Actually, I'm not reviewing..."

Are you going to sleep then?

The short-lived joy was soon overwhelmed by disappointment, Yan Ke was a little reconciled, and was reluctant to send this sentence.

Fingers were still moving on the send button, but Xiao Lu quickly sent another message: "Xuanxuan is in a bad mood, I've listened to her talk all night, and I just finished chatting."

So you're not sleeping yet, are you?

Snapped.The idea was like a little firework, lighting up a small patch of night sky.

There was a smile on his face that he didn't even notice, and he happily replied: "What's the matter with her?"

Ling Lu sent an embarrassing expression: "She has a crush on my roommate, and I just found out today that he has a girlfriend..."

"what?"

The screen showed that the other party was typing, but the message didn't come, so it must have been a long conversation.Yan Ke felt that it was not appropriate for him as a teacher to inquire about students' gossip, but he couldn't help but look forward to it.

After several minutes, a big green frame finally popped out.

The story goes like this: When Xuanxuan was still in school, she often met a boy who was studying alone.Seeing each other a lot, the two of them recognized each other as familiar faces.Once she left something behind, the boy deliberately went to the self-study classroom every day in order to return it to her.It happened that Xuanxuan was not feeling well during that time, and the boy went away for many days before meeting her.Xuanxuan was particularly moved, so she had a good impression of the boy.Afterwards, the two added WeChat to each other, and Xuanxuan began to bring snacks to the boys, and the boys would lend her umbrellas when it rained, and run back in the rain by themselves.

But the relationship between the two is nothing more than that, and there is no further progress.

Just when Xuanxuan thought that this relationship was about to end because of their respective internships, she was surprised to find that both of them were assigned in City A, and what's more, he was Linglu's roommate.Xuanxuan didn't pluck up the courage to ask Ling Lu about her roommate until she was out of the department, and only then did she know that her roommate already had a girlfriend.

"Actually, there's nothing wrong with it until the end, it's just a common lack of communication that leads to the failure of the secret love... But I find it very strange, because it wasn't Qixi Festival before..."

"Ok?"

"Xuanxuan said that she wanted to confess to my roommate on Qixi Festival, but the roommate said that she had made an appointment with me to go to the library. In fact, it was his girlfriend who came all the way from Guangdong to see him that day... I don't understand why he wanted to Lie to Xuanxuan. If he had confessed to Xuanxuan that he is not single, Xuanxuan would not be so sad as now."

"It's not easy? I want to catch Xuanxuan."

"But he's not like this kind of person. My roommate has a good temper and works hard at school, but he's a bit sullen and shy when he meets strangers, but he's a bitch when we get to know him well. He doesn't usually like to go out to play, mainly The activity is to go to the library... In short, it has nothing to do with Playboy."

Yan Ke smiled: "It is not necessarily a playboy who is in two boats. Maybe it is because he is not attractive, and now there are two girls who like him at the same time. He thinks the opportunity is rare, so he wants to pick and choose?"

The other party is typing.

blank.

The other party is typing.

blank.

The other party is typing.

It seemed that Ling Lu was struggling. He repeatedly deleted and typed the text, and then deleted it again and again, so that it took several minutes before he sent a short sentence.

"Well, you're right."

Yan Ke imagined Xiaolu's annoyed expression when he typed this jargon, and couldn't help raising the corners of his mouth.

Xiaolu said again: "Oh. Let's not talk about him, let's talk about something else."

What else can we talk about?Yan Ke was still thinking, Ling Lu quickly asked: "Uh, teacher, are you still awake?"

Yan Ke remembered that he was also struggling with this matter a moment ago, and suddenly found it very interesting.So he replied with a smile: "Don't sleep. Can't sleep."

Ling Lu sent a happy expression: "What a coincidence, I also suffer from insomnia."

The mood suddenly brightened, and even the night sky became less lonely.

After that, the two chatted all over the world.Schools, hospitals, work and study, games, sports, news, gossip...all the topics you can think of.

Of course, they also talked about their respective romances.

Out of a certain tacit understanding, they didn't want the other party to know who "that person" was, so they switched positions at key points, so that Yan Ke thought that Ling Lu had a crush on Passerby A, and Ling Lu thought that Yan Ke had a crush on Passerby B. .

congratulations.

In addition to encouraging each other, the goodwill of each other has also increased.

"By the way, do you want to go out to play tomorrow? Tickets to the zoo are half price!" Ling Lu sent a big smile.

Are you a child?

Yan Ke couldn't help laughing, and suddenly remembered that there was still an experiment tomorrow: "It won't work tomorrow, something is wrong. The day after tomorrow?"

"Uh, I'll work the night shift the day after tomorrow...how about next Saturday?"

"can."

Yan Ke looked up, and saw that the night sky had become light, and the sky was soft white, he hurriedly said: "It's already four o'clock, go to sleep."

"Well... I'm a little dizzy too. Good night, teacher."

Yan Ke also typed the word "good night", and before he could send it out, Xiao Lu quickly added: "No, it's already dawn, we should say good morning!"

Yan Ke smiled and re-typed: "Okay, good morning."

Ling Lu: "Hey."

Yan Ke waited for a while, but no more news came, so he turned and went into the house.Lying back on the bed, he felt extremely heavy.The long-lost sweet sleepiness enveloped him heavily.

Until the sun hit his face, he woke up leisurely, looked at the bright sky, and suddenly wondered why the alarm clock hadn't sounded yet.

Picking up the phone to look at it, he was so shocked that he almost hit his face.

It's nine o'clock!

Didn't you set the alarm clock for 07:30?How could I not hear it! ... There are still missed calls, it really is the uncle! One each at 08:30 and [-]:[-]!

Missed calls are marked in red.Yan Ke looked at the three words "Little Master Uncle" in red, and his mood suddenly turned into a collapsing iceberg, crashing into the water with a bang.

Why did you oversleep again?Uncle Shi must have thought that he didn't take the experiment seriously, maybe he simply forgot the agreement between them... Has the experiment started yet?Uncle alone?It must be inconvenient to be alone in the table... Will he find someone else instead?

Get up quickly, go out quickly, maybe there is still time, go wash your face and brush your teeth!

Yan Ke stumbled and got up.I didn't know how to take off the slippers last night, but I couldn't find one of them.He simply ran to the bathroom barefoot, and just as he stuffed the toothbrush into his mouth, he suddenly heard the phone ringing on the bed.

Is the alarm clock going off at this time?

He was brushing his teeth indiscriminately, but suddenly realized that the music was not an alarm but an incoming call, so he quickly spit out the foam in his mouth, wiped his mouth and ran back to the bedroom.

It's my uncle.

His palms were all sweaty, and he suddenly didn't dare to answer the phone.But the phone kept vibrating, and he could even imagine the worried and helpless expression of the uncle on the phone.

I am sorry.

The toothpaste was not spit out, and the mouth was cold and astringent.

Quickly answer the phone.

The palm of my hand was numb from the vibration of the phone, but I couldn't press the answer button for a long time.

Pick up the phone, trash.He says he likes Master Uncle, but he is late even for his experiments.Even being scolded by him now is justified.

Quickly answer the phone.Master will be angry.

Quickly answer the phone.

……

"..." Yan Ke finally plucked up the courage and put the phone to his ear, but no sound came out.

"Ake, have you arrived at the laboratory?" The uncle seemed to be walking, and his breath was unsteady in his words, "I just got the mouse. Have you had breakfast?"

"..."

"This experiment will take about five or six hours. You'd better bring some snacks to cushion your stomach... Ake?" The uncle finally noticed something was wrong.

Yan Ke almost squeezed out a word: "...um."

"You're not still in bed, are you?" The uncle's voice was smiling, "Little slob, the sun is drying your ass, get up quickly."

I'm already up.

but……

The tip of the nose was sour, and hot tears rolled down.

"Little Master..." Yan Ke suppressed his sobs.

"Ok?"

"Can I...not come?"

"What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

"No... I... stayed up late last night..."

The uncle sighed: "No wonder I didn't answer your call just now. Forget it, you go to sleep."

"I'm sorry..." After saying the last word, the voice could hardly contain the tears.

"It's okay. But you really have to stay up less late in the future, otherwise you will be more prone to insomnia...Let's not talk, I'm in the laboratory."

"Um……"

Yan Ke covered his mouth to prevent himself from crying, until there was a beep from the phone, and then fell silent.

The little uncle must be disappointed in him.

It is rare to have the opportunity to participate in the experiment, not to mention that this is still a subject of my own name.What's the use of him if he can't even do this little thing?

Rubbish.

Uncle Shi shouldn't waste time cultivating people like him.

Rubbish.What are you still doing alive?

Although no one would see it, Yan Ke still held back his tears, unwilling to cry out by himself.He went back to the bathroom alone, picked up his toothbrush again, and finished brushing his teeth while sobbing.

At the same time, Yu Cheng walked into the laboratory with the mouse box in his arms.Today, he is the only one doing experiments here. The ultra-clean table has already turned on the ultraviolet disinfection lamp in advance, and the whole laboratory is soaked in a cold and quiet atmosphere.

Yu Cheng thought about it, and sent Ling Lu a WeChat message.

"The lonely old man is doing experiments in the hospital, are you interested in visiting?"

Ling Lu replied almost instantly: "Yes!"

Yu Cheng sent over the location of the laboratory building.Then I opened my mobile phone mailbox and wanted to send him the bidding document for this experiment.

... No, forget it.

Yu Cheng couldn't help sighing when he saw Yan Ke's name on the first page of the tender.Put the phone back in your pocket and start sterilizing the rat.
