Chapter 915: Chapter 915: Too Graceful
Su Zhe arrived on time half an hour later, and Suizi handed him the medicine, seeing that he was also carrying a thermos flask, she nodded in satisfaction.
"You’re pretty thorough, remember, make the note sincere, let the girl see your earnestness—or should I write it for you?"
Suizi doubted Su Zhe’s ability to express himself, given his wooden expression.
Su Zhe shook his head, signaling his refusal.
He took the paper and pen from Suizi, flipped through the medicine she had prepared, and with his back to her, scrawled out something quickly.
Suizi really wanted to crane her neck to see, curious about what style a note from Professor Su would take.
But Su Zhe was in the way, and she saw nothing.
Ten minutes after Su Zhe left, a very drunk Yu Jingting returned.
"What was Su Zhe doing at our place?"
Suizi told him about the day’s events, and it sobered Yu Jingting up.
With a chuckle, he made to leave.
"I’m going to watch the fun~"
Suizi held him back.
"Why are you joining the hype? Don’t mess it up for them, drink the hangover soup first."
It was the same liver-protecting, stomach-guarding routine as the day before, but listening to the gossip about Su Zhe, Yu Jingting found the hangover soup less bitter.
Touching her chin thoughtfully, Suizi mused.
"I always feel that the way Su Zhe looks at me is a bit off, just that sort of look." Suizi mimicked the expression.
She always felt that Su Zhe was different from usual today, looking at her with a deep and almost amused expression.
Little did she know, now when Su Zhe saw Suizi, his mind was filled with the children’s nickname "Dada", and he couldn’t face Suizi straight anymore, wanting to laugh whenever he saw her.
"But if this match between Su Zhe and the senior sister works out, it would be a good deed for our family, not in vain for our two Little Luobos pulling strings."
Propping her chin, Suizi imagined the touching scene of Su Zhe delivering medicine to the senior sister at midnight, tsk, it was even a bit romantic.
"Didn’t you check what he wrote? Or what he put in the thermos flask?" Yu Jingting was not as optimistic as Suizi.
He had some understanding of Su Zhe, his wife was too romantic in her thoughts, which were not at all like Su Zhe’s style.
"Writing a note to a girl, you have to choose soft and warm words, wouldn’t you put porridge in a thermos flask rather than water?" Suizi disparaged Yu Jingting with a look.
"Normal people would say it like you do, but is Su Zhe a normal person?" Yu Jingting thought Su Zhe was the strangest person he had ever met, without equal.
Of course, Su Zhe also thought Yu Jingting was the most damaging person he had ever met, without equal.
"I’ll ask the senior sister tomorrow, and if this couple makes it, I’ll submit their story to ’True Story’, I’ve even thought of a title."
The devotion hidden behind a small packet of medicine, the Lame Professor and the Innocent Research Student’s Undying Love—
Just for that title, Suizi thought she might earn a significant fee.
Yu Jingting shook his head at the silly, smiling face of Suizi, his wife knew nothing of Su Zhe’s stiffness.
The next day, Suizi, driven by her gossipy nature, headed straight for the Laboratory.
There she saw the senior sister as vibrant as ever, showing no signs of having had too much to drink, holding a big thermos flask with a straw in it, taking sips from time to time.
That thermos flask looked very familiar; Suizi remembered, wasn’t that the one Su Zhe was carrying when he visited her home?
"Senior sister, did Su Zhe come to see you last night?" Suizi asked.
The senior sister nodded, straw still in her mouth.
This action made Suizi realize that the situation was not simple.
"Can porridge be drunk with a straw?"
"This isn’t porridge, it’s a homemade liquid nutritional supplement made by Uncle Su." The senior sister slurped a big mouthful, then sighed, "It’s really nasty."
A huge question mark slowly appeared in Suizi’s mind.
She had thought that Su Zhe, carrying a thermos, was delivering a comforting porridge from afar, but instead he brought a bucket of liquid supplement?
What was this all about?
"Here, Uncle Su explained very clearly, look." The senior sister took out a list from her pocket.
Suizi leaned over for a look, Su Zhe’s handwriting was wild and unrestrained.
"Oral berberine tablets, one tablet at a time, three times a day, an appropriate amount of the liquid supplement..."
Beneath it was the detailed process for making the liquid supplement, sodium chloride, potassium chloride, glucose... accurate to the gram!
So many grams of water, so many grams of materials, they only lacked listing the chemical formulas.
The more Suizi looked, the more speechless she became.
He was asked to deliver some comfort, but who asked him to showcase his professional skills?
The note had no trace of the warmth Suizi had imagined. To the uninitiated, it might even look like a prescription from a doctor.
When Su Zhe visited last night, he hadn’t even seen the senior sister; he only left the items with the Dorm Manager and took off.
Had Little Luobo written this note, God knows how flowery the language would be, but with Su Zhe, it was just a prescription.
Suizi regretted trusting the scientific oddball Su Zhe too much. Why didn’t she snatch it and write it herself?
"Though the liquid supplement is hard to swallow, it’s really effective. I don’t feel weak at all today; his formula is so precise," the senior sister, holding the thermos, said with admiration, "He’s way more reliable than my dad!"
"My dad used to make liquid supplement for me too, but he just winged the proportions. How could he be as precise as Uncle Su? A university professor is indeed more impressive than a middle school homeroom teacher."
Seeing her reaction, Suizi felt there might still be some hope.
Could it be that Su Zhe’s bizarre style might just hit the mark by sheer luck?
"Senior sister, may I ask what impression you have of Su Zhe?"
"Precision, elegance."
"Elegance?" Suizi looked at the thermos. Homemade liquid supplement in a thermos? Where did that elegance come from?
"Think about it. Wearing a lab coat, with a sharp gaze, holding test tubes, making liquid supplement with the air of conducting research—that’s elegance, isn’t it?"
"..." Suizi thought that compared to Su Zhe’s odd style, her senior sister’s peculiar taste was also quite "elegant."
"My dad always said, ’When looking for a partner, you should find a man who studies chemistry. They’re extremely practical.’ Even when cooking, he uses a scale. The seasoning is precise to the point of transcendence."
Upon hearing this, Suizi promptly joined in praising Su Zhe.
"Exactly, just take Su Zhe for instance. Whoever marries him would be lucky. He’d be excellent at washing dishes! Washing all those vessels in the Laboratory every day is no joke. Not even a professional dishwasher could match his expertise."
Suizi added to herself, of course, that’s provided this guy has time to cook.
Su Zhe was so busy that he didn’t even have time to eat, let alone cook.
The senior sister nodded in agreement. It made sense; her dad was especially good at washing dishes.
"My dad even tried to make a Diamond for my mom but failed. He understood the theory, but the equipment wasn’t up to par. I think Uncle Su would definitely succeed. He’s much more professional and capable than my dad. Those aunts really don’t know what they’re missing."
"So, senior sister, hypothetically, if you were choosing a spouse in the future, would you consider someone with a personality like Su Zhe’s?" Seeing the conversation turn this way, Suizi got straight to the point.
