Micro-check

Zhong Li and Ye Yiheng didn't go to Zhou Ning's house together, because Zhou Xun invited him separately. They didn't know that Zhou Xun invited each other at the same time. They checked the address and walked to the gate of the community, and only then did they meet each other.

Seeing the other party, Zhong Li, as a teacher, sighed in his heart, nodded weakly to Ye Yiheng, and asked, "Did Zhou Xun call you?"

Ye Yiheng said: "Well, the little uncle asked me to come over for dinner, saying that it was to celebrate moving, so I can't come."

Seeing that he was carrying a box in his hand, Zhong Li realized that he had just come here without bringing anything, which was really shameful, so he couldn't help asking: "What did you bring?"

Ye Yiheng said: "It's two cans of tea. I think my uncle likes to drink tea. It's more practical to give him tea. He can just drink it."

Zhong Li said: "Hey, I forgot to bring something, I'm going to buy some fruit."

Ye Yiheng said: "Let's just say that this tea is given by the two of us."

Now Zhong Li is most afraid of hearing his ambiguous words, and feels uncomfortable when he hears them, so he hastened to say, "You go first, I'm going to buy some fruit."

Seeing him walking quickly to the fruit shop at the gate of the community, Ye Yiheng stood there waiting for him.

Zhong Li has been in the United States for eight or nine years, and the place where he is located is one of the first states in the United States to pass gay marriage laws. Many of his former colleagues are gay, so he naturally has nothing against this kind of people and these things. Exclusion has long been as normal as heterosexuality and heterosexual marriage.

But because of his good looks, and the homosexual magnetism that he didn't understand at all, when he was still in the United States, he was also pursued by the same sex. No, it should be a date, but he refused.But things are not as simple as he thought. He was drugged once at a bar party, and he was almost raped by the same sex. Swallow blood, and never do anything to make the other party take legal responsibility, at most secretly retaliate.Although he was rescued later, he still felt disgraced and couldn't stay any longer. This was also one of the opportunities for him to return to China.

He thought that everything would be fine after he came back, and he would even forget the things that embarrass him to the extreme, but he never thought that the student he liked and relied on the most would actually sexually harass him.Although the other party hasn't done anything out of the ordinary so far, he just teases him with words from time to time and moves a little closer, but he still feels embarrassed.

It's not just embarrassment, but also troubles, and he even began to doubt his own character.

Although he was annoyed by Ye Yiheng, he knew that he had no reason to blame Ye Yiheng.Ye Yiheng was originally a directional student jointly trained, so it can be said that he just came here to get a doctorate degree. After getting the degree, he will naturally return to his original place to work and then get promoted. Zhong Li is not ignorant of the various rules of Chinese officialdom.

But Ye Yiheng worked on projects for him in a down-to-earth manner. Ye Yiheng had already finished half of his previous doctoral project and was willing to give up, because he had a new big project. Ye Yiheng would rather give up the previous project for him to do this urgent big project. Starting from scratch, I am willing to do things for him for another three years.

Ye Yiheng was willing to pay so much, and Zhong Li naturally understood the reason.

Zhong Li had to admit that he was using Ye Yiheng's feelings for him, let him stay by his side to do things, and then waited for him to work hard to finish the work, and he himself went through the most difficult period of starting a business at the beginning, and finally waited for Ye Yiheng After graduating, kick him away, and never have anything to do with him again.Of course, it is not irrelevant anymore, after all, they used to be mentors and apprentices, and the two of them can still cooperate on projects where it will be useful in the future.

Although he used Ye Yiheng in this way, Zhong Li only wanted the two of them to maintain the purest teacher-student relationship, and there must be no other things, otherwise it would be hard to tell in the future.

He is really despicable, every time Zhong Li saw Ye Yiheng working in the laboratory at eleven or twelve o'clock in the evening, he would think of himself this way.In fact, when he was studying in the past, he also worked so hard to do experiments day and night, and made the laboratory his home. Every one of his tutors valued him very much, but for him, the importance of his tutors was enough for him. It's the work of a dog and a horse, but Ye Yiheng thinks more about Xiao, Zhong Li will feel that Ye Yiheng is too much.

But in the end, Zhong Li only felt that he had gone too far, and while pressing Ye Yiheng every step of the way, his conscience was condemned at the same time.

If he was really aboveboard and blameless, then he should let Ye Yiheng go back to his mentor at the Academy of Military Sciences to complete the follow-up part of his doctoral project, and stop being by his side, which would be good for everyone.

But he couldn't do it, because the laboratory couldn't do without Ye Yiheng, and without Ye Yiheng, the goal in the five-year contract he signed with the school would never be fulfilled.

Zhong Li felt more and more powerless. He bought a big watermelon and a big cantaloupe in the fruit shop, and asked the clerk to cut them up and put them in boxes. He wasted a lot of time here. Stand there and wait for him.

It was as hot as a steamer outside in August, and Ye Yiheng was sweating all over his brow standing there, but he still stood like a javelin.

After coming out of the military academy, it was really different. He had to train with the national defense students for half a day every week, and he was busy with so many laboratory work. Zhong Li felt sorry for him again. He was like a worried old hen. He has to worry about every student.Obviously he doesn't like children, and he doesn't want other people to distract him from his research, but in the end, he still loves children here.

Zhong Li called Ye Yiheng, "Let's go, I told you to go upstairs first, why don't you listen, isn't it hot standing here?"

"It's okay." Ye Yiheng said, wanting to pick up the fruit in Zhong Li's hand, "Mr. Zhong, let me carry it."

Zhong Li said, "That's it."

The community is not too big, and the two quickly found Zhou Xun's unit and went upstairs.

Zhou Xun opened the door to greet the two, brought slippers for them, and said, "Is it hot outside? Come in and turn on the air conditioner."

Zhong Li gave the gift to Zhou Xun, and Zhou Xun said, "Senior brother, you don't have to be so polite, you can't finish the fruit at home, and you have to bring some back to the laboratory for the students to eat later, otherwise it will be bad if you leave it alone." gone."

Ye Yiheng handed him the tea, and after looking at it, he said: "Yiheng, you are too polite, you are still a student, don't spend this money, come in quickly."

Zhong Li paid a visit to Zhou Xun's house, and was very envious in his heart, because the house is so well-maintained, and the school teachers' apartment is naturally not as good as it should be, so he also admired sincerely: "Zhou Xun, your house The house is nice."

Zhou Xun brought the two of them some fruit from the refrigerator, and said, "Come and eat some fruit to quench your thirst. This house is managed by Zhou Ning, who is more aesthetically pleasing."

Zhou Xun did not shy away from his relationship with Zhou Ning, and Zhong Li did not show any discomfort, so he went to the kitchen to greet Zhou Ning. Seeing Zhou Ning wearing an apron breaking up the boiled purple potatoes, he said: "I have eaten so many things from you for nothing, let me do my job now, is it enough to break up the purple sweet potatoes?"

Zhou Ning originally wanted to be polite, but seeing that he was in high spirits, she left this matter to him.

Ye Yiheng was teasing the big cat Taotao in the living room, and Taotao obediently turned over his belly for him to touch. After seeing Zhou Xun also helping in the kitchen, he felt embarrassed to sit there and eat fruit, so he let Taotao go into the kitchen to help .

Fortunately, the kitchen is relatively large, and there is enough space for four people to perform their duties.

Zhou Xun handed over the big flower crab to Ye Yiheng. Ye Yiheng didn't expect that the flower crab's legs were so sharp that they could pierce his finger, and blood came out instantly.Zhong Li's eyes were sharp, and he saw it at a glance, and immediately said, "Hurry up and run on the water."

Ye Yiheng was stunned for a moment, "It's just a drop of blood, it's fine."

Zhong Li frowned and pulled him to the side of the sink, ran water to rinse the wound, and said, "There are often pathogenic bacteria on seafood, what if there is Vibrio vulnificus? Why are you so careless."

He was talking about Ye Yiheng, Ye Yiheng fell silent, let Zhong Li hold his hand to flush the water, Zhou Ning went to get the iodine wine and Band-Aid, Zhou Xun also came over to check the situation, and said sorry, he shouldn't be let Ye Yiheng handled the flower crab.

After washing the wound for a few minutes, some blood was squeezed out, and then it was disinfected with iodine again, and a band-aid was put on it.

Zhong Li wanted to take over from Ye Yiheng's shift to deal with the flower crab, but Zhou Xun called him away.

Zhou Xun put on gloves and finished handling the flower crab, saying, "I often handle this, and I'm pretty good at it."

Because Ke Mei and her husband came later, Xiao Yuan came even later, and it was nearly one o'clock for lunch. After the meal, Xiao Yuan went back to the hospital. The bed let him sleep, he, Zhou Ning, Ke Mei's husband, Lao Xie, and Ye Yiheng started playing mahjong, Zhong Li couldn't play mahjong, and seeing the sun was very hot outside, he didn't want to go back to the laboratory at this time, so he had to sit and watch them Playing cards is simply boring.

Zhou Ning was lucky, Zhou Xun helped him everywhere, and he won a lot in a short time. Lao Xie is a very stable person, and he doesn't talk much, so he doesn't say anything. Ye Yiheng is also a calm person, but after all Young, couldn't help but say Zhou Xun afterwards: "Little uncle, can you stop dismantling the cards yourself just to stop my cards. Let me win a round too."

Zhou Xun pretended to be stupid and said, "This is how I should fight. Brother, come over and see if this is how I should fight."

Zhong Li came over to take a look, and he who only knew the most basic rules said, "Well, yes."

Ye Yiheng touched the cigarette and said, "Mr. Zhong, I am your student, so you should face me."

The tone was almost coquettish, and Zhong Li instantly got goosebumps. Seeing that he was going to smoke, he immediately grabbed him and said, "There is a pregnant woman here, why are you smoking?"

Ye Yiheng was helpless, could the cigarette he was smoking float into the bedroom through a door?

Although he looks calm, he is actually very competitive, and since he was a child, has he ever lost?Zhou Xun and his wife kept pressing him to play mahjong. He couldn't get angry, so he said, "Mr. Zhong, come and help me play this game. I want to go out and smoke."

Zhong Li said, "I'm not very good at it."

Ye Yiheng raised his eyes and stared at him, seeing Zhong Li short of breath, so he had no choice but to go and sit in his seat.

Ye Yiheng went to the balcony outside the living room to smoke. Although the outside was also sealed with glass windows, the window was open to allow the plants on the balcony to breathe, and there was no air-conditioning, so it was extremely hot. Ye Yiheng looked at the living room through the sliding door glass while smoking. Zhongli.Zhong Li is not too young, but he still has a ignorant youthful air, probably because he is relatively fair and has peach blossom eyes. In short, he does not have the majesty of a doctoral supervisor. , I am more afraid of Ye Yiheng than I am afraid of Zhongli.
