Chapter 202: Chapter 202: Undermining
“After you’re done asking, you can leave.”
Li Hanzhou had come down from upstairs without them noticing and was tapping his finger on the banister, unceremoniously showing the guest out.
Shen Qi: “…”
So he really did treat him like a tool.
Shen Qi felt wronged but dared not speak up.
Qiao Yun cast a disapproving glance at Li Hanzhou. How could he treat a friend like this?
Li Hanzhou, however, strode over and sat next to Qiao Yun.
The scent of his masculine pheromones wafted over her, making Qiao Yun’s breathing somewhat unnatural.
Too close.
Without changing her expression, Qiao Yun shifted a little. She wasn’t used to being this close.
Li Hanzhou seemed not to notice her slight movement and said impassively, “I also have a question to ask you.”
On hearing this, Qiao Yun lifted her eyelids to look at him.
Li Hanzhou casually picked up a book from the table and flipped to a random page, “Here, I don’t understand this.”
Qiao Yun looked at the problem Li Hanzhou was pointing out and hesitated for a moment, “I’m not really the right person to help you with this issue.”
Shen Qi was shocked. What??
There was actually something Professor Qiao didn’t understand.
He peeked at the book, only to see it read.
“How to prevent premature ejaculation.”
Shen Qi: ????
Li Hanzhou: “…”
Qiao Yun suggested calmly, “Maybe you should go see a doctor?”
Li Hanzhou: “…”
His face darkened instantly, and he closed the medical book with one hand, pretending the incident didn’t happen.
“If there’s really a problem, you have to face it and solve it,” Qiao Yun worried over her good friend.
Li Hanzhou pinched the bridge of his nose, “Stop overthinking, I’m fine.”
Qiao Yun gave him a look that said, why don’t you listen.
Li Hanzhou didn’t want to dwell on this issue with Qiao Yun, as he really couldn’t prove that he was fine.
He tactfully changed the subject, “How about joining Li Group?”
“No.”
Qiao Yun refused instantly.
Without a moment’s hesitation.
Li Hanzhou frowned, “Why not?”
He thought Qiao Yun would at least consider it, but she rejected it outright.
“Why would I go to Li Group?” Qiao Yun didn’t understand.
“Why not come? What do you make in a month at Tianqi Research Institute? I’ll double it for you,” Li Hanzhou persuaded gently.
It’s safest to have the little rabbit under one’s own wings, plus Qiao Yun was indeed talented.
Shen Qi was also shocked at first that Master Li wanted to poach a talent.
But thinking about it, if Professor Qiao really came to Li Group, he could consult her anytime.
It would be perfect.
And considering the many scientific products Professor Qiao had researched, which generated much benefit for Shengqiao Group, poaching such a talent would be worthwhile.
Shen Qi, convinced, began persuading her, “Professor Qiao, you won’t be shortchanged here, definitely a better deal than what Tianqi Research Institute gives you. I mean it, everyone Li Group has poached from Shengqiao is treated better.”
Qiao Yun: “…”
Qiao Yun: “Oh, that’s how it is.”
Shen Qi: “Yes, yes.”
Li Hanzhou smiled, “Won’t you help a friend?”
“I don’t want to go,” Qiao Yun still shook her head.
Li Hanzhou meant well, but she was wasting her friend’s kindness.
And she didn’t want to tell him that she was working for herself.
So she could only look at him with clear, beseeching eyes, begging him not to ask any further.
The little bunny’s eyes were both dark and bright, looking troubled.
Li Hanzhou said without hesitation, “Then let’s forget about it, let’s go have lunch.”
He teased the little rabbit too harshly, afraid she might cry.
Qiao Yun then realized, unknowingly it was already noon, and nodded in agreement.
She didn’t refuse his kindness this time.
“There’s one more thing,” Li Hanzhou suddenly said, “That person is not so much a teacher as a traitor.”
A very childish way of putting it.
Qiao Yun: Hmm, a bit shocked.
