Quick Wear: The Heirless Boss Wants to Get Close to Her Every Day

Chapter 817 The Capitalist's Daughter vs. the Tough Guy Military Officer (49)

Li Donghai was extremely worried. He pinched his brow and said, "Xiao Shu, you're pregnant. Don't get agitated. If I still had feelings for her, why would I have proposed to you in the first place?"

"Let's stop arguing, or the neighbors will come over and laugh at us."

Xiao Shu patted her belly and said, "Li Donghai, I'm warning you, don't be fickle, or my parents won't let you off the hook."

Li Donghai nodded, but a sense of frustration welled up inside him.

The Xiao family clearly had power, yet they didn't help him out, and he was even demoted because of Xiao Shu's influence.

Thinking about all this, Li Donghai felt it was unfair.

If he had more money, he could do things on his own, so why would he need to ask his father-in-law for help?
When Shen Shuyi heard 66 repeat Xiao Shu and Li Donghai's words, she only said, "Oh well, let this crazy couple be tied together forever."

"It seems Li Donghai is up to something. I need to find a way to catch him."

"That's it! I can invent a surveillance system."

Since Li Donghai wanted to steal state secrets, she installed surveillance cameras to expose him.

[Host, what you're doing is terrifying! It's way too ahead of its time.]
Shen Shuyi chuckled softly, "Even though I don't do surveillance, I'm still way ahead of my time, okay? In other people's eyes, I'm not an ordinary person~"

It's meaningful that she accumulates knowledge across so many dimensions, applies her achievements to benefit humanity and the nation.

Shen Shuyi didn't pay much attention to outside affairs, focusing all her energy on research and development. Apart from that, she kept an eye on Yan Zheng's situation.

System 66 told her that he was not in immediate danger and to put her mind at ease.

There was still some time before Yan Zheng's mission ended. She placed her hand on her stomach; after taking the fertility pill, she was already one month pregnant.

She gathered all her thoughts and continued the research with her team.

Inside the research institute's conference room, Engineer Yang stared at the data on the screen, his brow furrowed.

"The energy loss of the electromagnetic catapult still exceeds the expected 12 percent. If this continues, the carrier-based aircraft will not be able to take off at full load."

All eyes were fixed on her. Shen Shuyi stepped forward and her fingers flew across the keyboard. "It's not a problem with the catapult."

"The main problem is that there is a conflict between the cushioning structure of the carrier-based aircraft's landing gear and the resonance frequency of the catapult trajectory."

Those present listened intently to her insights, and after spending time with her, they did not feel that she was unqualified or lacked experience.

On the contrary, everyone respected her opinion.

The chief engineer's voice was urgent, "Comrade Shen, what should we do?"

Shen Shuyi didn't keep them in suspense and immediately drew a three-dimensional model.

"You see, the landing gear pneumatic rod travel is designed according to steam catapults. Now that electromagnetic catapults are used, the speed curve is steeper, causing stress superposition on the hydraulic rod within one second of contact trajectory."

"Therefore, we can redesign a buffer spring, and with the helical angle in conjunction with the damping mechanism at the end of the track, we can control the loss to within three percent."

As the model rotated, the originally contradictory data points miraculously connected into a smooth curve.

The chief engineer was visibly excited. "Make a prototype immediately!"

"Comrade Shen, thanks to your invention of this 3D model machine, our simulations are much faster!"

This greatly improved design efficiency, and with the monitoring in the laboratory, Shen Shuyi is now the pillar of their research institute!
Faced with everyone's praise, Shen Shuyi simply smiled.

She calculated the time and took leave to go home on the day Yan Zheng returned.

Back in the family compound, she looked at the thriving vegetables and blooming flowers in the yard and felt quite pleased. She took out some brown sugar, malted milk powder, high-quality flour, and candy from her spatial storage and packed them into two bamboo baskets before heading to Chen Lian and Lin Chan's house.

During her absence, she was fortunate to have her neighbors help take care of the vegetables and flowers in her yard.

Seeing that Lin Chan's belly was getting bigger and bigger, Shen Shuyi took her pulse and said with a smile, "The fetus is very healthy. Just eat and drink well, there's no need to worry too much." When Lin Chan and Chen Lian saw the things she brought, they quickly said, "Oh my Shuyi, these things are so precious, please take them back."

Shen Shuyi put down the basket. "While I was away from home, I'm really grateful to you for taking care of all those flowers and vegetables in that big yard. I usually eat at the research institute, so these are going to expire soon. Please accept them. Don't be so polite with me."

She also gave Lin Chan a separate set of clothes for the baby to wear after birth, including a hat, socks, and two onesies.

"Sister Chan, please take this. It's a gift for my child."

"Oh, Shuyi, I don't know how to thank you enough." Lin Chan held the clothes, her eyes brimming with tears.

Chen Lian chimed in, "This is a token of Shuyi's affection, so please accept it."

Shen Shuyi laughed, "Don't think it's ugly. I just learned how to sew and tried to make it. It's not as exquisite and beautiful as the clothes sold in department stores."

"This is so cute! I love it, I love it so much!" Lin Chan was very grateful to Shen Shuyi. If it weren't for her, she wouldn't have had this child.

Shen Shuyi then took out a few canvas schoolbags and gave them to Chen Lian, saying, "These are for the children to carry their books to school."

"This backpack is made of special materials that are waterproof and fireproof."

"My goodness, this amazing backpack is one of a kind!" Chen Lian exclaimed, admiring the backpack with obvious delight.

Chen Lian's child is already in elementary school, and she couldn't be happier to receive such a beautiful schoolbag.

Finally, Shen Shuyi gave each of them a set of sun protection skincare products. The sun is still very strong in the autumn on the island, so sun protection is necessary almost all year round.

In this day and age, few people pay attention to this, and there are no good sun protection products available, or if there were, they wouldn't spend money to buy them.

Having a jar of face cream is already quite good.

When Shen Shuyi returned, Chen Lian and Lin Chan followed to see if they could help in any way, since the house hadn't been lived in for a long time and needed to be cleaned and tidied up.

Chen Lian told Shen Shuyi and Lin Chan to stay aside while she did the washing and cleaning.

Shen Shuyi chuckled, "Sister Lian, no need. We can wait until Brother Yan comes back to do it. He's a big man, and he works quickly and efficiently."

"Oh, it's alright, I'll finish this little job in no time."

"Alright then, I'll go cook. You can all stay for dinner tonight before you go back."

“I brought back a chicken from the research institute’s cafeteria. I’ll stew it now; I can’t finish it all by myself.”

"Let me show you my chicken stew with mushrooms."

"That's great! We all want to try your cooking." Chen Lian and the others had taught Shen Shuyi how to cook, but only some simple dishes. They hadn't taught her a more elaborate dish like chicken stew with mushrooms yet.

Lin Chan's belly was getting bigger, and it was inconvenient for her to do the washing and scrubbing, so she went to the kitchen to help out.

Shen Shuyi asked her to help soak some dried mushrooms and pick some scallions to chop up, but didn't ask the pregnant woman to do anything else.

The chickens in the cafeteria are very big, each weighing five pounds. She divided them into two portions: one for chicken soup and the other for braised chicken with mushrooms.

The chicken soup contained only spring water, a small handful of goji berries, and a few red dates, nothing else.

Besides braised chicken and mushrooms, there was also blanched bok choy, blanched shrimp, and stir-fried pork belly with green beans. The portion was enough for three people.

Lin Chan helped bring out the ceramic pot of stewed chicken soup, and Chen Lian could smell the aroma from afar when the lid was lifted.

She sniffed as she walked over, "Oh my, this smell is absolutely irresistible! What's stewing that smells so good?"
