Chapter 62: Chapter 62 How Are You So Amazing
Chapter 62 -62 How Are You So Amazing
Time passed day by day, whether it was the company, the marriage, or even the emotional issues between Xu Jinzhi and Xie Yanchuan, everything was proceeding in an orderly fashion.
The sweltering summer gradually faded away, and by the time October came, there was unexpectedly a bit of chill in the air both morning and night in City A.
Xu Jinzhi and Xie Yanchuan had recently been quite busy, especially Xie Yanchuan. Xu Jinzhi felt it wouldn’t be good to bother Xie Yanchuan for meals without a good reason.
She was so understanding and naturally supported Xie Yanchuan unconditionally.
During the National Day holiday, Xie Yanchuan was busy in the lab, while Xu Jinzhi was away on a business trip.
However, Xie Yanchuan was already busy, and now with Xu Jinzhi traveling abroad for work, they also had the issue of a time difference, which made their contact even rarer.
In the morning,
Xu Jinzhi woke up around eight or nine o’clock local time.
But due to being busy with work for the past few days and still not fully adjusted to the time difference, Xu Jinzhi felt completely unrested and exhausted.
After lying in bed for a while longer, Xu Jinzhi finally turned over and picked up her phone from the nightstand to take a look.
There were no calls, just a lot of messages.
Without getting up, Xu Jinzhi lay there and started checking her messages. She saw Xie Yanchuan’s name, which was pinned at the top of her list. The first thing she saw when she opened it was a message from Xie Yanchuan.
Even though her body felt terribly tired, Xu Jinzhi couldn’t help but smile, and without the urge to check other messages, she read Xie Yanchuan’s first.
“Jinzhi, the experiment was a success.”
“Well, it’s not exactly a success, just that we’ve achieved some interim results.”
Xu Jinzhi didn’t know the details of Xie Yanchuan’s experiment, but if he specifically told her about it, it must be something worth being happy about.
Xu Jinzhi replied to Xie Yanchuan’s message, but just after she sent it, Xie Yanchuan immediately started a video call. Xu Jinzhi was surprised; with the time difference, wasn’t it very late and time for Xie Yanchuan to rest?
But at that moment, Xu Jinzhi didn’t have time to ponder; she quickly answered the video call. However, immediately after connecting, there was a moment of regret in her heart.
After all, she was still lying in bed, not yet up, and to appear so disheveled before Xie Yanchuan made Xu Jinzhi a bit embarrassed.
Yet Xu Jinzhi was accustomed to putting on a facade, and although she felt a twinge of regret inside, her expression remained nonchalantly calm.
“Jinzhi,” Xie Yanchuan’s voice was gentle, but his face carried a smile he could hardly conceal.
“Why haven’t you gone to bed yet?” Xu Jinzhi asked.
Xie Yanchuan fell silent, not quite knowing how to answer. After a while, he said, “The lab here has made some interim progress.”
He was very happy today and wanted to share the joyous occasion with Xu Jinzhi, which is why he hadn’t gone to bed.
“Is that what you wanted to tell me?” Xu Jinzhi asked in an even tone.
The excitement initially filling Xie Yanchuan gradually calmed as it seemed Xu Jinzhi didn’t share his joy.
After a brief silence of a few seconds, Xu Jinzhi suddenly spoke with great delight, “Xie Yanchuan, how could you be so amazing!”
Xie Yanchuan was first taken aback, then laughed and said somewhat sheepishly, “It’s a collective effort.”
“Humph, don’t try to fool me. Your Dean had already told me, in the project you’re working on now, you’re the main person in charge,” Xu Jinzhi said.
Xie Yanchuan didn’t refute; indeed, he had taken on the brunt of the project. But no matter what, the most important thing was the success of the experiment.
“Wait till I get back, and I’ll celebrate properly with you!” Xu Jinzhi said earnestly.
Xie Yanchuan had intended to share this joy with Xu Jinzhi, but hearing Xu Jinzhi mention celebrating made him feel a bit embarrassed.
After chatting for a while longer, Xu Jinzhi looked at the time on his phone and, converting it to local time, realized it was already past two in the morning. He urged Yanchuan to get some rest.
Once the call ended, Jinzhi rose to start his day’s work.

After the deafening applause, Xie Yanchuan returned to his seat and continued to listen to the leaders’ speeches on stage.
When the seminar ended and the lab staff left together, Xue Hang whooped, “The professor is paying today; I’m going to eat my fill!”
Tao Xueyan looked at Xue Hang as if he were a fool, “I’d like to see you try to eat the professor ‘poor’!”
“That’s right; even if you stuff yourself to death, you can’t make our junior go broke.”

“No worries, let him try; I want to see that too.”
The group couldn’t help but burst into laughter, and Xue Hang took their teasing in stride.
Yanchuan merely smiled faintly as the group headed to the restaurant they had booked in advance.
Initially, most of them hadn’t planned on drinking, but somehow, as the evening progressed, everyone got drunk.
Even Xie Yanchuan had drunk too much, although he hadn’t actually consumed a lot. Unfortunately, he couldn’t hold his liquor, and after a few drinks, he began to seem a bit dazed and confused.
Fortunately, Tao Xueyan and another female colleague hadn’t had anything to drink. At the end of the night, they asked the waiter to help everyone downstairs.
Yanchuan had driven there and insisted on finding a designated driver to take him back, telling Tao Xueyan not to worry about him.
But Tao Xueyan wasn’t at ease and only left after giving the designated driver thorough instructions.
On the way back, Yanchuan sat in the back seat, feeling dizzy and a bit uncomfortable, so he rolled down the window. The cool breeze that flowed in made him feel much better.
After the brief hustle and bustle, it became quiet again, which left Yanchuan feeling unexpectedly lonely. He couldn’t help but think of Xu Jinzhi.
He checked his phone for the time, realizing that Jinzhi probably hadn’t woken up yet.
So, Yanchuan put his phone aside and just gazed out the window.
Upon arriving home, he took care to ensure that the others had all gotten home safely before he could finally relax.
Even though it’s not recommended to bathe after drinking, Yanchuan felt somewhat uncomfortable and decided to take a shower before lying down in bed.
The bedroom was quiet. He closed his eyes and lay there for quite a while, but sleep eluded him.
Feeling thirsty, Yanchuan got up from the bedroom and went to get some water. As he did, he keenly picked up on a slight noise.
Instinctively, he glanced toward the entrance, his senses on alert.
Then he confirmed it wasn’t just his imagination!
However, because Yanchuan had been drinking, his reaction was somewhat sluggish. Before he could respond, the door had already been opened.
