Pamper your waist

Chapter 111 Failure
The teacher was very enthusiastic when he saw her. He pulled her and asked her with concern.

"Yanyan, how are you doing recently? Is everything going well for you?"

"I heard that you have now taken over your father's position and continued his research?"

An Yan felt somewhat ashamed when she mentioned her father's research project.

"Yes, but since I took over, there have been no new breakthroughs."

"I'm really afraid that my father's life's hard work will end in vain in my hands."

The teacher patted her shoulder gently to comfort her.

"Don't say that. Compared to your peers, you are really outstanding."

"That's the nature of research and development, it's a trial and error process."

"It may take more than ten years for a project to make a breakthrough."

"When you eliminate all the wrong answers, the only one left is the answer you want."

"So, people who do R&D are destined to be lonely. They must be tough and patient."

"Good boy, don't give up. You've done a great job. Don't underestimate yourself."

"All people engaged in R&D survive step by step like this. The rainbow after the storm is the most beautiful."

An Yan smiled and nodded.

I have to say that the teacher's words really comforted her and made her feel warm in her heart.

The two chatted for a while, and the teacher seemed to suddenly think of something.

"By the way Yanyan, your uncle Zhang Xun has been here on a business trip these days, and he is here today too."

"You should still be in contact, right? Would you like to go over and say hello to him?"

As he spoke, the teacher pointed in one direction.

An Yan looked over and saw Zhang Xun in the crowd at a glance.

The last time she met Uncle Zhang was on a business trip.

Sheng Chuhong asked her to invite Uncle Zhang back to the Sheng family, but Uncle Zhang clearly refused at that time and his attitude was very firm.

Probably because he doesn’t want to get involved in the muddy waters of the past anymore.

But putting aside these official matters, Uncle Zhang had a good relationship with her father in the past, and he was an elder she respected very much.

An Yan was always very polite, so since she met her, she naturally wanted to go over and say hello.

She told the teacher and walked over there.

"Uncle Zhang, long time no see."

An Yan called softly, with a courteous attitude.

Zhang Xun smiled and nodded when he saw it was her.

"It's Yanyan. I didn't expect to meet you here. I thought you might not be willing to come to such an occasion."

The two found a quiet place to chat for a while.

Zhang Xun looked at her and asked suddenly.

"Yanyan, do you really plan to stay in the Sheng family?"

"Actually, you can think about it and live a different life."

"Your grades were so good when you were in school. Your father said at that time that he wanted you to stay in school and teach as a teacher."

"As a girl, if you stay in a university and work safely, that would be great, wouldn't it?"

"If you are willing, I and your teacher can help you. It shouldn't be too difficult."

An Yan is not the kind of person who doesn't know what is good or bad.

She knew that the reason why Uncle Zhang made such a proposal was really for her own good and he was thinking about her.

But... there are some things she has to do, and there are some responsibilities she has to shoulder. "Uncle Zhang, thank you for your kindness."

"But this project was my dad's biggest lifelong dream. He devoted his whole life and all his efforts to it."

"Now, if I leave again, I'm afraid all of this will really be in vain..."

"To be honest, I'm really unwilling to give up, so I want to keep persisting. When I can't hold on anymore, maybe I can give up willingly..."

Zhang Xun looked at her with a bit of heartache and sighed softly.

"You kid, your temperament is exactly the same as your father's. You are very stubborn."

"You spent all your youth on it, it's not worth it... That project isn't worth it, and the Sheng family... it's even less worth it..."

"Their family..."

Zhang Xun hesitated to speak, and did not continue speaking, leaving only a helpless sigh.

An Yan wisely did not ask further questions.

Everyone has some secrets, and people will naturally say what they want to say. There is no need to ask for details about what they don’t want to say.

Zhang Xun changed the topic, and the two chatted for a while. They both tacitly pretended that what just happened never happened.

This gathering was indeed a rare opportunity. Taking advantage of this opportunity, everyone met many old friends whom they had not seen for many years and had a great time chatting with each other.

Therefore, everyone is somewhat excited.

Zhang Xun is usually a relatively restrained person, and he couldn't help but drink a few more drinks today.

When we just chatted, An Yan already knew that he still had work, so he would leave early tomorrow morning.

She thought for a while, got up and left the farewell party, preparing to go out to buy something.

When she came back with large and small bags of things, she happened to meet Zhang Xun at the gate who was about to leave.

She handed the thing in her hand over and smiled at him.

"Uncle Zhang, when you came home to drink with dad, your favorite was Bi Fuxuan's sauce. At that time, you always asked me to help you run errands to buy it back."

"You can take these back to eat. They now have vacuum-packed ones. The shelf life is much longer than before. Just put them in the refrigerator and they won't go bad."

"But it's a bit late today. Several items have been sold out. I will bring them to you next time I have a chance."

The familiar smell of a century-old brand hits your face.

Zhang Xun looked at the things in his hands, and scenes from the past could not help but come to mind. His chest felt a little clogged, and even his voice was choked with sobs.

"Yanyan...actually Uncle Zhang..."

As soon as he opened his mouth, a group of people came from behind and interrupted his words.

Those people chatted with him and pulled him to talk.

An Yan didn't say anything, smiled at him, waved her hand, and left first.

……

A weekend goes by in the blink of an eye.

On Monday, the company will hold a regular meeting as usual, and An Yan must attend.

At the main seat, Sheng Chuhong sat there upright, listening to the reports from the department heads. He showed no expression throughout the whole process, and it was not clear whether he was happy or unhappy.

He was a little unhappy because he failed to succeed at the racecourse that day and allowed Sheng Yanchen to leave safely.

But after thinking about it, he didn't lose much. After all, there will be many opportunities in the future.

If he can escape, the monk cannot escape from the temple. This time, he is lucky and let him escape. It may not happen next time. After all, the days are still long.

Thinking about it this way, he didn't take this defeat too seriously.

It was understandable that Sheng Chuhong was calm. What made An Yan feel uneasy was that Sheng Yanchen, who was sitting next to him, was also unusually calm today.

She had refused three times before, so he must have been unhappy.
