Chapter 2473 I want to be with her
Zhou Si looked at the old man with a resolute look in his eyes and replied, "I'm sorry, I can't do that. Besides, her background is not ordinary, she is not what you see on the surface.
Grandpa, I like her, but I didn’t tell you clearly before.
But now, I feel it is necessary to tell you.
I must have her, and no matter what you say against it, I will not change my mind, and I hope you will not interfere in this matter."
The old man was very angry and shouted, "Why are you so stubborn?"
Zhou Si remained unmoved, his tone calm but firm, "Whatever you say, but some people and some things are hard to change once they are determined, and I don't want to change either.
She is the person I want to be with in my life.
As for Lantes's matter, I will handle it myself.
You don’t need to worry about anything else, just take good care of yourself and enjoy your retirement.”
The old man was very angry, his chest heaving violently, as if he was about to explode at any time.
He took a deep breath, suppressed his anger, and said in a low and stern voice, "Okay, you like her and want to be with her. I understand your feelings."
He paused and reminded, "But don't forget your current responsibilities. Those enemies in the dark have not been completely defeated yet, and every step you take is like walking on thin ice.
Can you guarantee that she will remain safe until those people are completely brought down?
Don't forget your stepmother. There is a very powerful force behind her that keeps hunting you down.
If I hadn't secretly neutralized it, you wouldn't have survived until today."
At this point, Mr. Zhou became a little emotional, "How dare you fall in love before everything is settled? This is not a joke, you are gambling with your life!
I advise you, if it's really for her own good, you should stay away from her.
Keep her away from this bloody storm, otherwise it will only harm her."
Zhou Si lowered his eyes, his fingers trembling slightly, a trace of struggle flashed in his eyes, but it quickly turned into determination.
He raised his head and looked directly at the old man, his voice calm but with unshakable determination, "I understand what you said, and I have always kept those dangers and responsibilities in mind.
But I don't want to leave her. This relationship is my support and gives me courage in the darkness.
I have made up my mind. Even if the road ahead is full of thorns, I will protect her. You don't need to persuade me about this matter in the future."
Mr. Zhou was so angry that he slammed the table, shaking the teacups on the table so much that they jumped up.
He knew that his grandson always had his own ideas, and once he made a decision, ten oxen could not pull him back.
He pointed at Zhou Si angrily and shouted, "You!!! Fine, fine, I can't control you anymore. I'm not coming here today for nothing."
After saying this, Mr. Zhou left in anger.
After the people left, the living room suddenly fell into silence, with only the rustling sound of leaves in the wind outside the window.
Zhou Si leaned back in his chair tiredly, raised his hand and pinched his eyebrows, feeling a little headache.
The assistant began to comfort him, saying, "Young Master, the old man is also concerned about you and is afraid that innocent people will be implicated."
There was worry in his tone and he looked at Zhou Si with concern.
Zhou Si looked out the window with deep eyes and said coldly, "You're overthinking it. He actually wants to force another woman on me."
Although he doesn't live with the old man very often, the old man has been secretly helping him find the right person."
He has always known it, but he just didn't expose it.
But he will never compromise on this matter.
The assistant was speechless for a moment.
Zhou Si packed up and went to school.
At the same time, Mr. Zhou was sitting in the car on the way back, his face still ashen, and the depressed mood in his chest had not dissipated at all.
The more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was impossible, so he gave up.
Finally, he couldn't help himself and ordered the housekeeper, "Find a time and ask that girl to come see me. I want to talk to her."
The housekeeper hesitated and said, "If the young master knew about this, I'm afraid..."
Old Master Zhou snorted heavily and slammed his cane on the floor. "I'm afraid he'll find out. The worst that can happen is a quarrel!"
The butler looked at the old man's resolute expression and knew that it was futile to persuade him any further, so he could only bow his head in agreement.
……
Marcy had just finished a long theory class and was rubbing her sore neck as she walked out of the classroom side by side with Charlene.
When the draft in the corridor blew through, she sneezed loudly several times without warning, which almost made her cry.
Xia Lin immediately asked with concern: "What's wrong? Are you okay?"
Marcy sniffed and waved her hand, "It's okay."
As soon as she finished speaking, she caught a glimpse of a familiar figure under a tree not far away - Zhou Si was waiting for her there.
Her eyes lit up, and the discomfort she had just felt was instantly forgotten.
Like a cheerful little bird, she ran over in a few steps, her tone filled with undisguised surprise, "You really came? Are you feeling unwell?"
Zhou Si shook his head and replied, "No, I just happened to be going to the lab. Want to go together?"
Marcy agreed and said goodbye to Charlene.
When he sent her there, Zhou Si said to her, "Come over for dinner tonight."
Marcy responded and watched him leave.
Everyone in the laboratory noticed the two people, and Anya naturally saw them too.
Thinking of that night, Zhou Si's ruthless scolding and indifference, she almost crushed the glass test tube in her hand.
Anger burned in her chest, and she swore to herself: I will never swallow this humiliation. I will make that woman suffer and live a life worse than death!
Marcie didn't know any of this.
When she arrived, she went straight to Senior Yas and asked, "Senior, you said at noon that you had some data to discuss. What was it?"
Senior Yas pushed up his glasses, handed over a data report, and said, "The previous formula may not be effective and needs to be revised."
Marcy carefully read through it and pointed out a few key points: "The solvent ratio here seems to be too high, which will cause precipitation."
Senior Yas nodded, and the two of them immediately started discussing.
The discussion lasted for half an hour before it ended.
When Ma Xi was about to leave, Senior Ya Si suddenly called her, "Junior, wait a moment."
He quickly chased after her and stuffed a delicate little gift box into her hand. With an apologetic look on his face, he said, "This is an apology gift from our professor. It's for you."
Marcie was surprised.
Isn't that thing over?
Why bring it up again?
Senior Yas smiled and said, "He's still brooding over the mistake at the research institute that caused you to faint. He feels bad about it."
Marcy shook her head slightly, not wanting to accept it.
Senior Ya Si said, "This is a gift made by our professor himself. He asked me to give it to you. You must accept it.
You must not refuse, otherwise I will not be able to report to you."
Marcy was hesitant and still didn't want to accept it.
Senior Yas opened the box and handed it over.
Marcy looked closely and saw that it was a stone seal, very small, about the size of her little finger.
The top is made of wood, and the seal is made of jade, which is inlaid into it.
Senior Ya Si spoke with a smile in his eyes, "The professor's biggest hobby is carving, jade, and wood carvings, and he likes to give them as gifts.
Almost all members of our institute have one.
He made one for you, saying it was a token of his appreciation. The words on it are 'benevolence and honesty', which symbolizes your profession, a doctor's compassionate heart."
