Chapter 159 Chu Mingzhou Seeks Help
Su Nuannuan looked at the two large bags in front of her and puffed out her cheeks.

Just as she was worrying about how to bring them back, a familiar figure appeared in front of her.

It is Chu Mingzhou.

Su Nuannuan's eyes lit up, and she quickly waved to Chu Mingzhou and called out.

"Hi, Chu Mingzhou."

Chu Mingzhou was thinking about the experimental project he needed to work on today when he heard someone call his name.

He looked toward the source of the sound and saw Su Nuannuan almost engulfed by the two packages.

Chu Mingzhou pursed his lips, suppressing the urge to curl them into a smile, and walked towards Su Nuannuan.

Seeing Chu Mingzhou approaching, Su Nuannuan's eyes lit up even more.

As the other person approached, Su Nuannuan spoke to Chu Mingzhou.

"Mingzhou, could you help me take these two packages home?"

After saying that, Su Nuannuan put her hands together and looked at the other person expectantly.

Chu Mingzhou lowered his eyelids and responded in a low voice.

"it is good."

Su Nuannuan was overjoyed to see that Chu Mingzhou had agreed.

However, Su Nuannuan didn't let Chu Mingzhou carry everything. She picked up a smaller package herself. But carrying the package completely blocked her view, making it impossible for her to see the road ahead.

Seeing Su Nuannuan struggling to walk, Chu Mingzhou frowned and snatched the package Su Nuannuan was carrying.

To Su Nuannuan's astonishment, he picked up another package with his other hand.

Su Nuannuan looked at Chu Mingzhou in disbelief and said.

"Mingzhou, you're so strong!"

Chu Mingzhou didn't think much of Su Nuannuan's shock.

"Yeah, I've practiced."

When the two returned to Su Nuannuan's place, Su Nuannuan poured Chu Mingzhou a glass of water.

To express her gratitude, Su Nuannuan asked the other party to take two cans of fruit with her.

Before leaving, Chu Mingzhou said to Su Nuannuan.

"There's something I need your help with."

Su Nuannuan stopped drinking water and looked at the other person with a puzzled expression. Remembering Chu Mingzhou's previous help, Su Nuannuan answered without hesitation.

"Okay, I agree."

Su Nuannuan's answer earned her a surprised look from Chu Mingzhou.

Chu Mingzhou's deep eyes revealed doubt, as if to say: How could you be so decisive?

This was the first time Su Nuannuan had seen Chu Mingzhou look like that, and she was instantly charmed by the boy's cuteness. Su Nuannuan realized that although Chu Mingzhou didn't talk much, he had a lot on his mind. And all of this was hidden in his eyes.

Hearing Su Nuannuan's clear and melodious laughter, Chu Mingzhou felt a little embarrassed and turned his eyes to the other side.

Knowing that the boy was shy, Su Nuannuan stopped laughing and explained the doubts in his mind.

"I trust you won't make me do anything difficult."

Chu Mingzhou's eyelashes trembled, and his pale ears turned red where Su Nuannuan couldn't see.

The boy's emotions were fleeting, so fleeting that Su Nuannuan didn't even notice.

At this moment, Chu Mingzhou revealed what he wanted Su Nuannuan to help him with.

"I've heard your English is very good. Could you help me translate some documents?"

After he finished speaking, Chu Mingzhou added something else.

"I can give you money."

Su Nuannuan smiled and said softly.

"Of course. But you don't need to pay, you've helped me a lot before."

Su Nuannuan felt that accepting money for this small matter would be too hurtful to their relationship.

Chu Mingzhou pursed his lips, nodded, and said, "Okay, I understand."

Su Nuannuan was a little confused as to how Chu Mingzhou knew she was good at English. Thinking this, she voiced her question.

How do you know my English is good?

Chu Mingzhou didn't hide anything and spoke directly to Su Nuannuan.

"It was Comrade Pang Pang who said it. He said you are an intermediate-level English translator and that you translate materials for Xinhua Library every month."

After speaking, Chu Mingzhou lowered his voice, sounding somewhat embarrassed.

"I've seen your translated documents before, and they're very well written."

Every translated work published by Xinhua Library is credited to the translator after it is printed.

After learning that Su Nuannuan was doing translations for Xinhua Library, Chu Mingzhou read her works. Whether it was classic stories or scientific anecdotes, Su Nuannuan translated them very accurately.

That's why Chu Mingzhou sought Su Nuannuan's help this time.

After Su Nuannuan agreed to Chu Mingzhou's request, Chu Mingzhou brought a stack of documents in the afternoon.

Some of the materials were printed, while others were handwritten. There was a lot of material, so much that it reached Su Nuannuan's calves when placed on the ground.

"so much?"

Su Nuannuan was somewhat incredulous. She now regretted agreeing so readily that morning.

Chu Mingzhou touched his nose sheepishly and said.

"Don't worry, I'll translate it with you."

Su Nuannuan was surprised to hear Chu Mingzhou's words.

"You can understand this, why do you need me to translate it?"

Chu Mingzhou's expression remained unchanged as he explained.

"These materials are all related to my research topic. They are intended for other people to see."

Hearing Chu Mingzhou's words, Su Nuannuan realized what was going on. These were research materials that Chu Mingzhou wanted to show to the members of the research group. Their English level wasn't high enough to read them directly.

Su Nuannuan nodded and agreed to help Chu Mingzhou with his translation.

There was nothing she could do; she had spoken too sweetly that morning. Now that it was her turn to redeem her promise, Su Nuannuan didn't want her integrity to crumble in front of this handsome young man, Chu Mingzhou.

Su Nuannuan led Chu Mingzhou to the living room, and the two sat together to begin translating.

After sitting down, Su Nuannuan focused all her attention on the documents. These documents were all about antibiotics, with research on penicillin and cephalosporins dominating.

At this time, penicillin had already appeared in China, but cephalosporins had not.

The information was too disorganized. Su Nuannuan guessed that Chu Mingzhou was going to research a topic about antibiotics, but she didn't know which aspect it was.

After reviewing the materials, Su Nuannuan began translating them.

As Chu Mingzhou watched Su Nuannuan translate intently, an idea came to his mind.

As the sun began to set, Su Nuannuan and Chu Mingzhou realized that more than four hours had passed. By then, their stomachs were growling loudly with hunger.

Chu Mingzhou's voice rang out, his face flushed, and he stood up to speak to Su Nuannuan.

"Let me treat you to dinner."

Su Nuannuan nodded.

The two put away the translated materials. Completely absorbed in their work, Su Nuannuan translated five articles. Chu Mingzhou was equally impressive, translating six.

After putting the documents away, Chu Mingzhou said to Su Nuannuan.

"Nuan Nuan, would you like to join my research group?"

After learning about Su Nuannuan's English proficiency, Chu Mingzhou's first thought was to recruit her into his research group.

Upon hearing this, Su Nuannuan quickly waved her hand and shook her head.

"No, no, I don't have time."

Just kidding, Su Nuannuan is already incredibly busy, she doesn't have time to go to Chu Mingzhou's research group.
