Chapter 927: Chapter 927 Intimate Humanistic Care

In the presence of so many leaders, Professor Wang knew he had played with fire and had to face the consequences.

His eyes rolled back, and he feigned fainting.

Even without acknowledging his wrongdoing in front of so many leaders, everyone knew what his future would hold.

No matter how powerful his connections were, they wouldn’t be able to save him.

Moreover, his connections could not possibly surpass those present at the scene.

"We owe it to your son-in-law, Old Fan, without him we would have ended up harboring a villain," the leader said to Fan Huang.

Fan Huang waved his hand dismissively.

"It had nothing to do with me, I just happened to be passing by."

What a coincidence of just passing by.

"Jingting, once you two are done with your business, go have tea with the uncles together. Since Xiaosu is busy with work, let him be; when he’s finished, he can come to our house. I’ve kept some good tea for him," Fan Huang said casually, sending a signal to everyone there that Su Zhe was one of his family and not to be treated like a weed that anyone could trample.

The group of leaders arrived hastily and left just as quickly, leaving Yu Jingting and his wife to say a few words to Su Zhe.

Su Zhe looked at Professor Wang lying on the ground feigning unconsciousness, then back at Yu Jingting and his wife.

If it hadn’t been for the couple’s strong support, he might have been outwitted, and all his years of hard work could have been stolen by someone using underhanded methods.

At that moment, Su Zhe looked at Yu Jingting with eyes full of emotion; having such a couple as friends was indeed a great fortune in his life.

Yu Jingting patted his shoulder with a chuckle.

"This is the wedding gift my wife sent you—hey, look at this little lady. I did all the work, and she just came up with a bad idea, yet the gift seems to be from her."

Overwhelmed with gratitude, Su Zhe missed the implication of Yu Jingting’s words, that he also had a wedding gift for Su Zhe.

It was only after getting married and moving into the apartment assigned by the university with his senior sister that Su Zhe saw the wedding gift from Yu Jingting.

It turned out to be an imported cassette video recorder.

Weighing 5 taels, it was something you couldn’t buy without connections.

With a market price close to 4,000 yuan, given the current salary levels, it was already considered a top luxury item.

Knowing that his senior sister enjoyed watching movies and Su Zhe wasn’t often free to accompany her to the cinema, Suizi and his wife thoughtfully procured the video recorder from abroad as a wedding gift for them.

It was supposed to be a gift from the couple, but when Suizi saw Yu Jingting holding the box secretly without letting her see, she became curious. She sneaked a peek when Yu Jingting went to the toilet.

If there was a video recorder, there had to be cassettes, and Yu Jingting included a box of films from Yueben Country.

That kind of film for two people.

Upon seeing the covers, Suizi’s eyes nearly popped out. This was it?!

Having been caught, Yu Jingting admitted it openly, yes, it was his gift. Professor Su was already thirty and had yet to experience the scent of a woman; wasn’t it right to offer him some heartfelt cultural care?

Isn’t it a reasonable thing to say, "Ignorance asks shamelessly, studious humility, and in the boundless sea of learning, ’films’ are our boats"?

This shameless logic somehow convinced Suizi, who readily agreed to let him give the gift, on the condition that he sign his own name and not involve her.

After all, Suizi still carried the burden of being somewhat of a cultured person.

As for the mood of Su Zhe and his wife while watching the films, that remains unknown.

Having said goodbye to Su Zhe, Yu Jingting and his wife joined Fan Huang at the Tea House for a while and didn’t get home until almost twelve o’clock.

Everyone at home had already gone to bed, and after Suizi finished her washing up, she started discussing Professor Wang with Yu Jingting.

The couple both felt that once Professor Wang awoke and faced the accountability from above, it was highly likely that he would claim all of today’s events were due to his own "lifestyle issues."

Faced with the choice between admitting to lifestyle issues or framing Su Zhe, Professor Wang would choose the former, preferring to acknowledge a nonexistent son and keep the problem at the level of character rather than expose his coveting of Su Zhe’s project.

But no matter what he chose, after making such a scene in front of so many leaders, it was impossible for him to continue at the Research Institute. He was only a few years from retirement, but now he had tainted his last years with an ethical violation involving his personal life. Not only would his name be excluded from the G5 project, but his future retirement benefits would also be affected.

"One really shouldn’t harbor insidious thoughts; had he not messed up, he might have been commended for the project even if he wasn’t the one leading it,"

Suizi felt this was a classic case of greed stretching beyond one’s reach.

"He deserves it. Insisting on using such low tactics, claiming to have a son? He’s downright despicable. Kicking him out of the research team is the right call," Yu Jingting cursed.

The phone rang. Suizi, being nearest to the extension, picked it up.

"Hello?"

"Is Yu Jingting there?" The voice on the other end was a woman’s, and it sounded quite coy.

Suizi glanced at the clock. It was exactly twelve.

"Who are you?" Suizi had just finished asking when the call was disconnected.

"Who was it?" Yu Jingting asked.

"A woman, looking for you, sounded rather young."

That time of the night wasn’t very pleasing.

Yu Jingting was puzzled, what woman would call him in the dead of night?

"Could it be something happened to the second brother in the Special Zone?" Yu Jingting said, but then he thought it unlikely. Even if something had happened to them, they wouldn’t have women make the call, as their girlfriends weren’t with them.

"I don’t know which nutcase that was. We’ll check it out tomorrow."

Just as the couple was about to go to sleep, the phone rang again.

Yu Jingting sat up cursing, and before he could get out of bed, they heard a "Hello?" from the living room.

Wang Cuihua got up to go to the toilet when she heard the phone ringing and picked it up.

The house had a main line in the living room, and Suizi’s bedroom had an extension; they were interconnected.

Wang Cuihua, still bleary-eyed, answered the phone, only to hear a woman’s voice on the other end: "Looking for Yu Jingting~"

"What?" Wang Cuihua was muddled and didn’t catch on immediately.

"You must be Chen Hansui, right?"

Wang Cuihua was more awake now and sensed something was off. Without hesitating, she responded, "I am. What do you want?"

"I’ve slept with Yu Jingting."

"..." It took Wang Cuihua 5 seconds to process the statement.

The woman on the other end of the phone patiently waited for her reaction.

"I curse your rotten bloody insides!" Wang Cuihua, her anger boiling from her core, started cursing directly.

"Flustered and exasperated, are we?" The woman on the phone seemed to be in a good mood, not realizing that the person she was speaking to wasn’t Suizi.

"You stupid idiot, where are you at? Don’t be a coward, speak up!" At this point, Wang Cuihua was raging, her blood rushing to her head.

She wanted to track down this arrogant woman and give her a beating.

Calling their home like this was just too brazen!

Wang Cuihua couldn’t even imagine what would have happened if the call had been answered by her "frail" and "gentle and quiet" daughter-in-law; what then?!

"I will call you again," said the woman before hanging up.

Enraged, Wang Cuihua picked up the receiver, ready to smash it.

A strong hand with distinct knuckles held her back, and the furious Wang Cuihua turned to see Suye striding towards her from behind.

Hearing Cuihua curse, Dada perked up.
