Wild Sweet Temptation

Chapter 172: Minister, is he going on a date?

Silence became the best answer.

She entangled her fingers together and tried to think of some compromise solutions for him, but they were all rejected one by one.

"The several foreign PhDs who were sent here before will all go, and then some of my domestic and overseas projects will be split, and you will no longer have to do much docking."

She grabbed his wrist anxiously. "Then don't we have to do it ourselves? This won't work."

“The basic structure is there, but the subsequent directions are still different. You will find out when you go abroad.”

There is a joint research going on here that is kept secret by the domestic military, and they don’t want anyone from outside the country to get involved, for fear of leaks.

Ji Fanxing was a little confused, but Su Muchen didn't think it was a big deal. Children learning to walk always have to abandon their walkers.

"A good father will have a good daughter. Uncle Ji is so capable. You don't have to be so unsure of your own abilities."

He showed her the fiscal year data and test results.

"Under your leadership, the results are pretty good now. This was the expectation made by the old guys at the time, and it has been exceeded."

"Please prepare for this for a while. I may be busy with the internal affairs of the Su family in the next few days. I will set off after I finish my work."

Everything was arranged very tightly, and Ji Fanxing felt a little uneasy. The next day, he went back and called a meeting with all the people from domestic and foreign departments.

These senior colleagues gave high praise to her work and told her not to be nervous and that she could stand on her own.

Qiao Yu submitted the latest batch of data, looking a little flustered.

"Minister, there were some problems with the system positioning of our A-type missile during the test today. The results of the current experimental model are quite different from the initial design. Do we need to redo it?"

After Ji Fanxing arrived at the scene, he personally reviewed and checked it.

"It's okay, don't be so nervous, there's no need to overturn it. There must be a problem at this stage. Which group is responsible for this?"

"Call the circuit construction and coordinate positioning data group to hold a meeting for discussion. Everyone else should follow the procedures first and don't panic. Problems in the model stage are minor matters."

After arranging this little episode, she continued to integrate the data and planned to go downstairs to have a cup of coffee and get some fresh air.

In fact, she has grown a lot during this period of work. At least she is no longer as flustered in emergency response as before.

She sat by the window with her coffee and daydreamed for a while. A tall figure in a gray trench coat was reflected on the glass. He stood behind her for a while, then pulled out a chair and sat next to her.

After looking at each other, Ji Fanxing grinned. "Eh? Xiao Yueyue."

Back then, Yue Gouzhe was the first team leader assigned to do experiments with her. Later, because they were a good partner, they did many research and competition experimental projects together. After a long time, she jokingly gave him the nickname Xiao Yueyue.

In fact, it doesn’t quite fit, as Yue Gouzhe is a serious person.

The two sat in the coffee shop, slowly chatting about the past and their current situation.

Today, Ji Fanxing tied her hair up, wearing a warm and simple outfit, which made her look intellectual and beautiful.

Yue Gouzhe couldn't help but slightly curl his lips when he saw her pursed lips and smiling.

"I heard that you are no longer an assistant but a department boss. Congratulations. I thought you were going to be an assistant for life."

"Oh no." Ji Fanxing curled her lips. "Everyone will stumble in this life, it's not too late, it's not bad to finally be able to do what I like."

"You are only doing optimization. Don't you think it's a waste of your talent? You were the best student in our college back then. The teacher talked about this for a long time."

Ji Fanxing shook his head with a smile in his eyes, without revealing the real direction of his work.

"A man of honor never brags about his past achievements. I haven't worked in this field for two years. If I were to start R&D right away, it would be too tiring. I don't have the ability to take on the responsibility. How about you? What are you doing recently? Why did you suddenly come to Beijing at this time?"

"I'm here with my family this time. I'm fine now, just helping out at home."

Yue Gouzhe picked up the coffee and took a sip, then glanced at Ji Fanxing who was smiling with a hint of sarcasm.

"How about I start my own business? Will you join me?"

Ji Fanxing smiled, revealing her little white teeth. Her smile looked particularly warm and pleasant, and quite healing.

"Okay, if you really want to start a business, I'll be your founder. Are you free tonight? Come to my house for dinner? It's nearby."

"Well... where should I wait for you after get off work?"

"At the entrance of the company."

After agreeing on a time, Ji Fanxing looked at her watch, exclaimed, and immediately grabbed her coffee and ran back. Yue Gouzhe picked up his phone. "Let's postpone the game tonight and talk about it tomorrow."

Ji Fanxing hummed a little tune as she asked her aunt to prepare the meal. She was filled with bubbles of happiness when she got off work. Yue Gouzhe could be considered as her mentor. If he had not dragged her to participate in various competitions and experimental demonstrations, she might not have achieved so many results.

She was the only girl in the experimental group, and especially after she became famous for her dance in the cheerleading team, they treated her like a flower, so everyone took good care of her when Zhou Jae-ze came or when she needed to leave.

Qiao Yu felt the bubbles flying on her face, and seeing her lively little face, she also became happy. "The Minister is in a good mood today."

"Yeah~ I have an appointment today, bye~"

Qiao Yu waved and watched Ji Fanxing walk towards a man in a gray windbreaker in small steps. The two of them walked away side by side, talking and laughing. He touched his chin and talked to himself.

"Bull, you're on a date, so you're happy like this?"

"Hey, who is it with? Did you find out?"

Qiao Yu was frightened by the sound behind him and shrank his neck, smiling awkwardly and secretly backing away.

"I don't know, Mr. Su, I'm just guessing."

Su Muchen always has a faint smile on his face, and it is difficult to tell whether he is angry or not.

"You're just a greenhorn."

"Yes, it's just a guess. It's not a guaranteed ripe melon."

"Then remember to bring it to me when it's cooked."

He grinned and patted Qiao Yu on the shoulder. Qiao Yu felt like he was almost knocked to the ground...

Qiao Yu: Mr. Su is so terrible every day! Why do people like him have smiling lips? 〒▽〒

As Yue Gouzhe entered the door, he was blocked by Caesar and barked at him. Ji Fanxing touched the dog's head and told it that he was a guest, so Caesar obediently made way.

"This dog is quite human."

The food was ready, as was a bottle of wine, with just the right amount of alcohol.

"Yeah, Lu Jinhuan gave it to me. It's a bit lonely living alone, so it's nice to have a dog to keep me company."

The two chatted briefly about recent developments while having dinner. She kept her mouth shut about her work, and when asked about it she just said lightly that she was doing some insignificant work. Yue Gouzhe asked her if she would go if other research institutes offered her an olive branch.

Ji Fanxing picked up a piece of food and chewed it, pretending to think about it.

"It depends on the situation. After all, I don't want to be too far away from home. Look at me, I am a little useless person every day. I guess my family will be worried about me alone."

The main reason is that she can't bear to part with her cub and she really loves that naughty thing.

After clinking his glasses, Ji Fanxing narrowed his eyes slightly, "By the way, are you now? Single?"

Yue Gouzhe's hand holding the chopsticks paused imperceptibly, but soon returned to normal.

"Why? You want to introduce me?"

Ji Fanxing tilted her head and looked at him with a smile. "If you need anything, I can help you keep an eye out for it. Can you not be too specific about the gender?"

Yue Gouzhe shook his head helplessly. "Then I'm afraid we'll have to get a little more stuck. What about you? Any other ideas?"
