Six years later, I and my four cubs blew up my ex-husband's house

Chapter 2462: Really Got Hit

later.

After finishing the work at hand, Ma Xi went to Zhou Si to find him first.

When Zhou Si saw her coming, he immediately stood up and asked gently, "Are you done?"

Marcy smiled and said, "Well, I'm done."

Zhou Si rubbed her head and said lovingly, "Let's go. I'll take you back to the dormitory."

Marcy nodded and said, "Okay, wait a moment, I'll clean it up."

After saying that, she went back to the operating room, tidied up a bit, and picked up her bag.

Before leaving, Ma Xi said goodbye to Senior Ya Si and said, "Senior, I'm going back first. You should come back early too."

Senior Ya Si smiled and waved, "Okay, see you tomorrow."

When the two came out, they found that it was raining outside.

Seeing this, Marcy exclaimed, "Oh no! How can I get back home without an umbrella?"

Zhou Si looked up at the rain. It wasn't heavy, but it soaked the ground.

Without a word, he took the suit jacket from his arm, quickly opened it, and placed it firmly over Marcy's head.

The fabric of the coat was so large that it almost blocked Marcie's vision.

Zhou Si whispered, "Let's go back like this."

Marcy raised her head slightly and found that her whole body was tucked under the coat, and her nostrils were filled with his familiar scent.

There was the pleasant scent of perfume and the faint aroma of medicine that I gave him to help him sleep, which was elegant and warm.

This sudden protective attitude made Marcy's heart beat out of control, and it beat faster and faster, as if it was about to jump out of her chest.

She almost subconsciously took a step closer to him, her shoulder lightly touching his arm.

Zhou Si was stunned, looking at the person who took the initiative to move himself into his arms, and was unable to recover for a while.

Until Marcy spoke, her voice soft but full of concern, "You should come in too, or you'll get wet in the rain."

Zhou Si finally came back to his senses, a smile appeared on his lips, and he replied, "Okay."

After saying that, he also leaned closer to Marcy and held the other half of the coat on his head.

Marcy was very satisfied with what she saw and said with a smile, "Let's go!"

Soon, the two of them were heading towards the dormitory, holding up their suit jackets.

The raindrops hit the coat, making a slight sound.

During the process, cold wind mixed with raindrops inevitably splashed in.

Zhou Si almost covered Ma Xi's head with his entire coat, trying his best to protect her.

Half of his body was soaked, and the rain soaked his shirt.

About ten minutes later, the two finally arrived at the dormitory building, and the sound of rain gradually stopped.

The hem of Marcy's skirt and shoes were wet, but Zhou Si protected her body and head well, so they were almost not wet.

As for Zhou Si himself, his clothes were almost all wet, his shirt stuck to his muscular body, and so was his hair.

Seeing this, Ma Xi couldn't help but frown and said, "Didn't I tell you to hold on together? Why are you getting so wet? You'll catch a cold."

Zhou Si smiled lightly, raised his hand to wipe the water droplets off his face, and said calmly: "I'm fine, I'll go back and take a shower later.

I'm in better shape than you, so this little rain is nothing."

Marcy snorted in dissatisfaction and retorted, "That's not necessarily true. I've been strong since I was a child. I often move around in the woods and get a lot of exercise.

Besides, my family has a lot of medicinal herbs, and my father has always taken good care of my health! Therefore, I rarely catch a cold, and getting caught in the rain is even more common.

You might be weaker than me!"

Zhou Si rarely took these words lightly.

He is a grown man, he can't lose to a little girl.

But he couldn't compete with her.

He wrung the water out of his suit jacket, and the water droplets splashed onto the ground, making a splashing sound.

Then he looked up at the gray sky and said, "Okay, go back and take a hot shower, don't catch a cold."

Marcy rubbed her cold arms and nodded in agreement.

"it is good."

It was uncomfortable to have wet clothes, and even walking was difficult.

She glanced in the direction of the boys' dormitory and suddenly suggested, "Why don't you stay on campus tonight? It's better than rushing back in the rain."

Zhou Si originally thought that it was not impossible.

But when he was about to make the decision, he remembered that there was an urgent document that he had to go back to deal with.

That document is quite urgent and needs to be used early tomorrow morning.

Just put them in the car.

He talked to Marcy and finally said, "So, we have to go back and stop living here."

Ma Xi had no choice but to remind him the same thing, "Then remember to take a shower when you go back. If you feel something is wrong, take some medicine in advance as a precaution."

Zhou Si nodded obediently and responded, "Okay, go up quickly!"

Then he said to her, "Good night."

After watching her go up, Zhou Si went back.

……

When he returned to his residence that night, he followed Marcy's instructions, took a hot shower, dealt with the documents, and went to bed early.

I didn't feel any obvious discomfort in my body.

Business as usual.

But when I woke up the next morning, I felt a slight dryness and itching deep in my throat, and it even felt a little tight and uncomfortable when I swallowed.

Could it be that what that girl said came true?

Really got caught?

Although my throat was not feeling well, I remembered that there was an important meeting to be held at Lantus headquarters in the morning.

He hurriedly ate breakfast, then pulled himself together and went out, heading straight to the headquarters.

By the way, submit the contract signed with Xiaobai.

At the meeting, after reading the contract, David slammed the copy on the polished table and his voice suddenly rose.

With undisguised anger, he demanded, "Zhou Si, why didn't you ask for permission before signing this contract? Do you have any respect for the rules?"

He pointed at the contract terms, his fingertips turning slightly white from the pressure. "This kind of high-tech stuff requires not only a huge amount of R&D funding upfront, but also years of investment in the R&D cycle. The technical and market risks involved are difficult to estimate.

Most importantly, whether it can eventually become as intelligent as a real person is a completely unknown mystery!

You are simply gambling the very foundation of Lantus on an uncertain future!"

The old man sitting next to the main seat also came to listen today.

At this moment, his brows were furrowed, and his dry fingers tapped unconsciously on the mahogany table.

As a leader of the older generation, he is naturally cautious and conservative towards this emerging thing with an unstable foundation and uncertain prospects.

Zhou Si's gaze swept across his father's flushed face, and finally fell on the old man's worried expression, but a cold arc appeared at the corner of his mouth.

He leaned back slightly in his chair, and replied in a clear and sharp voice, "I'm in charge of an emerging industry. Because of your stubbornness, Lantes has been losing ground in the market and is starting to go downhill.

High-tech products are the future trend.

Besides, what are you afraid of by cooperating with the Fu Group?

Fu's research and development technology has long been far ahead of the industry.

Do you really think he's as incompetent as Lantus?"

He deliberately emphasized the last two words, and they were clearly heard in the silent meeting room.
