The afternoon passed quickly, and everyone was tidying up in an orderly manner, and basically everything was done. When it was time to get off work, Lu Xun came to the door of the laboratory and asked, "Xiao Zhi, do you need me to take you home? This place is a bit far from your home."

Gu Shanzhi felt embarrassed for bothering Lu Xun for the whole day, and hurriedly said, "Thank you, Brother Lu Xun, for your kindness, but Uncle Li will come to pick me up later. This place is indeed far from home, so Mom bought an apartment nearby. I will live nearby in the future, so I don't have to ask Uncle Li to pick me up every day."

Suddenly she remembered something and said hurriedly, "Brother Lu Xun, Mom said she wanted to thank you for your help in Country F and would like to invite you to our house for a meal. Do you have time?"

When Lu Xun heard this, even the sky falling could not stop him from going to Gu's house for dinner: "Of course, Xiao Zhi can arrange the time."

Gu Shanzhi thought for a moment and said, "How about the day after tomorrow, Saturday? Let's have lunch. I have to decorate the apartment with my aunt in the afternoon."

Lu Xun nodded: "Okay, I'll be there on time." Not to mention lunch, he's also willing to have a midnight snack.

Although Lu Xun couldn't personally send Gu Shanzhi home, he learned that Gu Shanzhi would be living nearby soon and that he could go to Gu's house for dinner. He suddenly felt that the weather was really good today.

Not long after, Uncle Li drove a low-key Mercedes to the door to pick up Gu Shanzhi, and Lu Xun began to think about how to spend time with Gu Shanzhi reasonably.

Friday ended quickly, and Lu Xun finally welcomed the Saturday he had been looking forward to for a long time.

Early on Saturday morning, Nan Nan and Liu Zhiyi took Aunt Chen to buy groceries. It was obvious that Nan Nan valued Lu Xun, her savior.

Gu Shanzhi and her brother followed Grandpa Gu early in the morning to "fight" with Grandpa Gu next door.

Seeing Grandpa Gu from a distance, Grandpa Gu said, "Old Gu, you brought helpers with you today. That's not very kind of you."

Grandpa Gu looked very proud: "I'm afraid you're cheating, so I have to find a witness."

Grandpa Gu pouted and said, "You talk as if everyone has no grandchildren."

After saying that, he took out his cell phone and called his grandson: "Hey, Yan Kai, what are you doing? Come to the pavilion by the lake near my home quickly. Your grandpa is being bullied."

Looking at Grandpa Gu who looked like a child complaining, Gu Shanzhi and Gu Shannai wanted to laugh, but they tried their best to hold it back and almost pinched their thighs.

Grandpa Gu sneered, "Hey, Old Gu, don't bother your grandson if he's busy. Didn't he say before that he was busy with a project?"

Grandpa Gu waved his hand and said, "It just ended two days ago. I've been catching up on sleep at home these days. I've been very idle."

Gu Shannai felt sorry for Gu Yankai for thirty seconds: "Grandpa Gu, Brother Yankai is still catching up on his sleep. It's not good for you to wake him up. Xiaozhi and I won't be partial."

Grandpa Gu said, "To be fair, we also need a notary."

Gu Shanzhi smiled and took out a thermos and a few small cups from the bag his brother brought over. He poured a few cups of tea on the stone table and handed them to Grandpa Gu first: "Grandpa Gu, please try this. This is a new tea I made to nourish the yin and benefit the lungs. The weather is cold now, and you and Grandpa often go fishing outdoors. It's easy to get a cough from the wind. Drinking this will be good for you."

Then he took another cup and placed it in front of Grandpa Gu, and then in front of his brother and himself.

Grandpa Gu was very satisfied and liked Gu Shanzhi. Why did he pull his grandson out of bed in such a cold weather? It was because Old Gu brought his granddaughter over today.

Grandpa Gu took a sip and commented, "Not bad, ginseng, asparagus, rehmannia root, and a scented tea."

Gu Shanzhi marveled at his grandfather's ability to tell the ingredients in just one sip: "Wow, grandpa is amazing."

Grandpa Gu had an expression on his face that said "I need to keep a low profile". He drank his tea slowly, and sighed in his heart that his granddaughter was becoming more and more capable.

Gu Shanna also took a sip and touched his sister's head: "Not bad, the scented tea neutralizes the taste of other herbs. My sister has made progress recently."

Although Gu Shanzhi is a doctor, he is less than 20 years old after all, and he is as happy as a child when receiving praise from his relatives.

Grandpa Gu also fell in love with the taste and finished a cup in no time. "Xiao Shanzhi, do you have any more of this tea? Can you sell me some?"

Gu Shanzhi smiled sweetly: "I only give this tea away, I don't sell it. I'll bring some to your house later. Don't be polite, Grandpa Gu."

Grandpa Gu smiled even more happily, and he really liked Gu Shanzhi no matter how he looked at her: "Okay, okay, I'll ask Yan Kai to go to your house and get it later."

As soon as he finished speaking, Grandpa Gu's grandson Gu Yankai hurried over. Seeing a large group of people, he knew that he had been deceived by his grandfather. He was full of helplessness: "Grandpa, how do you look like you are being bullied?"

Grandpa Gu slapped his grandson on the head and said, "All you do is sleep. Look at Shanzhi and Shannai from next door. They accompany Lao Gu out fishing early in the morning, but you sleep until the sun is high in the sky."

Gu Yankai really can't wash himself clean even if he jumps into the Yellow River. God knows his company just finished a project and he stayed up all night for more than a month, sleeping only three or four hours a day. If he doesn't make up for the sleep, he's afraid he'll die suddenly.

"Grandpa, I'm just adjusting my work and rest schedule reasonably. Grandpa Gu, look at my dark circles, are they getting heavier again? I feel really wronged that you, grandpa, keep accusing me like this." As he spoke, he looked at Grandpa Gu with a wronged look on his face.

Grandpa Gu had often heard Old Gu talk about how hard his grandson had been working recently, so he quickly said, "Yankai, just ignore your grandfather. He just can't sleep and has to find someone to accompany him. You look a lot worse than before. Come and have a cup of Xiaozhi's new tea. I just said I'd send some to your house. It's just right for you to drink now."

Hearing this, Gu Shanzhi quickly poured another cup and handed it over: "Brother Yankai, have a try."

Gu Yankai felt like he had found an ally and took the cup: "Thank you, Sister Shanzhi."

Grandpa Gu began to take charge of the situation: "Stop talking so much, Old Gu. Your notary is here too. Let's compete to see who catches the most fish. We have guests coming for lunch, so we can't stay too long."

Grandpa Gu responded heroically: "Who's afraid of who? Come on."

Before the game, while picking up tools, he said to Gu Yankai beside him: "Yankai, I have a crush on Xiao Shanzhi, you have to get her back for me."

Gu Yankai was even more helpless: "Grandpa, Sister Shanzhi doesn't like me. She is the youngest doctor of medicine in Jinghua University, and I am just an undergraduate, and I am seven or eight years older than her."

Grandpa Gu was furious: "You are an outstanding graduate of Cambridge University. Our two families have similar family backgrounds, so we are a perfect match. Besides, you grew up together and have been childhood sweethearts. Don't you like the little girl?"

Gu Yankai was silent. In fact, he also liked Gu Shanzhi, but he always felt that there was not only an age difference of seven or eight years between them, but also a mismatch in educational background. He could only play the role of a neighbor's brother.

And Tani Shanzhi always seemed to treat him the same as Tani Shannai.

"I'll try my best." This was the only way Gu Yankai could respond to Grandpa Gu.

Grandpa Gu snorted at his grandson, then happily walked towards the lake with his tools in hand. He wanted to compete with Lao Gu today.

The remaining Gu Shanzhi, Gu Shannai and Gu Yankai sat in the pavilion and acted as silent cheerleaders.

"Dear contestants, the competition lasts 90 minutes. The countdown starts now." Gu Shanzhi was responsible for giving orders. She then sat back next to her brother and started playing with her cell phone. Then her eyelids couldn't help but droop.

Seeing her sister's sleepy appearance, Gu Shannai asked, "Xiao Zhi, did you sleep very late last night?"

Gu Shanzhi simply fell on Gu Shannai and said painfully: "Don't mention it. My 68th experiment failed yesterday. There is no love anymore. I have been thinking about what went wrong all night."

Tani Shanna looked at her sister in her arms with sympathy: "I will sympathize with you for one minute."

Gu Shanzhi sighed heavily.

Gu Yankai sat quietly beside him. Only when his family was around would Gu Shanzhi show this cute and confused side. He would always politely call himself "Brother Yankai".

Gu Yankai was also sighing in his heart, "When can I get close to Sister Shanzhi's heart? When can I let her act coquettishly in front of me?"

Tani Shannai's big hands frantically ruffled Tani Shanzhi's hair: "You will succeed next time. R&D is like this, no one knows how many times you will succeed. You have been too successful in the past. No one can guarantee that everything they do will go smoothly from beginning to end. Don't give up, just try a few more times."

Gu Shanzhi turned around and asked Gu Yankai: "Brother Yankai, have you ever tried and failed so many times?"

Gu Yankai was suddenly stunned, and said with a smile: "To be honest, I have failed before, but not so many times. In the past two months, I stayed up until midnight every day for a project. It was because many problems arose. But as long as you don't give up, you can always do it well."

“Although I was very tired after I succeeded, I felt a great sense of accomplishment.”

After hearing what Gu Yankai said, Gu Shanzhi seemed to feel a little better, but was still unhappy.

Gu Yankai saw this and started to liven up the atmosphere: "How about I tell you two a joke?"

Hearing a joke, Gu Shanzhi got excited and stood up from Gu Shannai's arms: "Tell me quickly, the joke my brother told last time was so bad, it wasn't funny at all."

Gu Shannai pinched her brows and said, "Xiao Zhi, you can't step on one and praise the other."

Gu Shanzhi's big watery eyes stared at Gu Yankai motionlessly, as if a little girl saw her favorite candy. Gu Yankai's heart was shocked. Every time he looked into Gu Shanzhi's eyes, he felt his heart fluttering. This little girl's eyes seemed to have magic.

Clearing his throat, Gu Yankai spoke: "Do you know what frogs will definitely choke on if they eat it?"

The brother and sister thought for a moment and shook their heads. Gu Yankai revealed the answer: "Pumpkin."

Gu Shanna asked quickly: "Pumpkin? What's wrong?"

Gu Yankai laughed: "It's hard to say, quack quack quack."

Gu Shanzhi burst out laughing.

Seeing that the effect was good, Gu Yankai continued, "Here's another one. One day, Triangle, Square, and Circle agreed to go shopping together. Square and Circle both arrived. What is this situation called?"

Gu Shanzhi raised his hand: "I know, let's gather."

"No, guess again." Seeing that Gu Shanzhi was in high spirits, Gu Yankai suddenly became motivated.

Taniyama Na said weakly, "It can't be that there are three missing one."

"No." Gu Yankai smiled and shook his head.

"Brother Yan Kai, tell me the answer quickly," Gu Shanzhi urged.

"Well, I told you, the answer is congruent triangles." The moment Gu Yankai announced the answer, the brother and sister were as quiet as statues.

Tani Yamana said unconvincedly: "This is just a brain teaser, how can it be a joke?"

Gu Yankai said confidently: "Isn't it funny?"

Tani Yamanna was silent. There was some truth to it, but not much.

"The last one, one day, a rich man was walking with his dog in the park, and suddenly a killer appeared with a gun, "bang bang" killed the rich man's dog. The rich man asked in confusion, why did you do this? The killer said, someone gave me 20 million to kill your dog."

"Hahaha, I can't help it. Brother Yankai, are you really working properly? How do you know so many boring and funny things?" Gu Shanzhi laughed to tears at the last paragraph.

Gu Shannai was helpless at the moment, and said to her sister: "Xiao Zhi, your sense of humor is a bit double-standard, why do you laugh so hard when listening to Brother Yan Kai's jokes?"

Gu Shanzhi said calmly: "Then you need to reflect on yourself. Why can't you even tell funny jokes?"

It's another heartbreaking day for Tani Yama Na. He suddenly misses his soft sister from childhood. Can he return the grown-up sister?
