I Am A Boss Mommy That Wants To Slack

406 Professor Z!

The award ceremony would be held at night, and it started at 6 p.m.

Now, Shen Ruojing was in her bedroom. She had her head lowered as she checked out the time on her phone. It was currently 4 p.m.

She would still be on time if she left at 5 p.m. Hence, she could still laze about for an hour or so.

The moment she thought of this, a knock rang out.

Shen Ruojing lazily spoke, “Enter.”

The bedroom door was pushed open, and Chu Cichen and Chu Qianshu were standing outside.

Chu Qianshu immediately saw Shen Ruojing.

Shen Ruojing basically didn’t seem like a mother of three children. No one would suspect anything if she was introduced as a student at the university. At this moment, Shen Ruojing was seated on a bamboo recliner chair at the balcony with a book in her hands. She was currently very immersed in reading.

There was a teapot at the side, and a few black and red-colored wolfberries could be seen inside the transparent glass teapot. All of this constituted a very pleasant-looking scene!

Chu Qianshu suddenly doubted herself. Did she misunderstand her?

Although her eldest sister-in-law didn’t have an official job, she was still reading daily to nourish her own knowledge.

When she thought of this, she saw Shen Ruojing placing the book in her hands on the table. Feeling curious, Chu Qianshu took a glance and saw that the book’s title was: [Boss Life After Retiring From Marriage: She’s Sassy and Beautiful.]

With just a single glance, she could tell this book was a brainless web novel!

Chu Qianshu. “!!”

She knew she was right. This eldest sister-in-law of hers was a slacker!

Her lips twitched and she took the initiative to stride into the room. Her tone was rigid as she said, “You are reading such books every day? If you like to read, you can actually read some famous novels.”

Although Chu Qianshu was more fond of reading scientific research theories such as physics and math books, Shen Ruojing probably wouldn’t be able to understand these things, right? At the very least, she should read some famous novels, and that would be so much better than the trash she was reading now! Shen Ruojing shouldn’t be a mere vase that looked beautiful but knew nothing!

Shen Ruojing lifted her peach blossom eyes and calmly replied, “Oh. Those books are tiring to read. As for web novels like this, you can enjoy the content without needing to use your brain!”

Chu Qianshu. “…”

She truly couldn’t stand watching people waste their lives away. Hence, she took a few deep breaths and suppressed her impulse to reprimand Shen Ruojing.

She didn’t even want to glance at Shen Ruojing anymore.

There was only a thought in her heart. Her older brother was like a fresh flower, but why was it planted on a bed of cow dung?

She snorted. “I’ll wait for you guys downstairs.”

After that, she turned and walked out.

She would probably be angered to death if she continued waiting here.

After she left, Chu Cichen smiled. “She hates seeing people being ignorant the most. Why are you teasing her?”

Actually, as long as he revealed one of Shen Ruojing’s sock puppet accounts to Chu Qianshu, it would be enough.

Even if that other identity was Anonymous or Qing Dai, Chu Qianshu would immediately not feel any contempt toward her.

Chu Qianshu was someone who respected the various top characters of each industry very much. However, she still felt that scientific research ranked the top in her heart.

Shen Ruojing stretched lazily. “Don’t you feel she looks very adorable when she is angry?”

Shen Ruojing actually admired Chu Qianshu a lot.

From the first time they met, Shen Ruojing could sense all the inner qualities a scientist ought to have from her. She was serious and had rigor and conviction in her beliefs.

Scientific research was a very dry and boring job. As long as one could persevere, regardless if one had any achievements or not, that was already a feat worthy of others’ respect.

In fact, she could see a shadow of an adult Chu Xiaomeng from her.

Chu Xiaomeng’s personality was one that could fully immerse herself in researching the world. When she grew up, her character would probably be similar to Chu Qianshu’s, right?

Chu Cichen smiled in a doting manner. “Let’s go?”

Shen Ruojing started slightly. “Go where?”

“To the award ceremony,” Chu Cichen said. “I got Chu Qianshu to bring us in.”

The award ceremony that the scientific world organized this time around only sent invitations to scientists and reputable characters. Although Chu Qianshu was here representing her teacher, she also had a very high status in this field. This was why she could bring people in.

When Shen Ruojing heard this, her peach blossom eyes regarded Chu Cichen seriously.

She hadn’t expected that Chu Cichen could guess her thoughts.

She lowered her eyelids. “My maternal grandfather refuses to acknowledge our relationship because he believes that once he does so, huge trouble will come my way. He once said that this trouble would cause us to break up.”

Chu Cichen clenched his fists tightly and looked at her seriously. “As long as you don’t want to break up with me, we will never break up. Jingjing, no matter what happens, I will never leave you.”

He had never been afraid of external pressure. He was only afraid that Shen Ruojing would push him away.

It was like six years ago when she decided to fake her death in the organization…

Back then, if she was willing to tell him her troubles, there wouldn’t be a problem to kill Dugu Xiao if the two of them joined hands!

Shen Ruojing had actually felt some guilt toward Chu Cichen for going to the award ceremony this time around.

After all, if she went and proclaimed her identity, the troubles that might occur would definitely involve Chu Cichen. But now, Chu Cichen’s words caused her to smile as the burden in her heart disappeared.

Yes, why was there a need to split things so evenly?

He was the father of her three children, and it was normal for him to take on the unknown danger together with her! At most, she would come back from her retired life and help Chu Cichen to strengthen the Chu Corporation!

Shen Ruojing stood up. “Let’s go then.”

The two of them went down together and saw Chu Qianshu currently talking on the phone. Her face was filled with joy as she asked, “You are saying that Prof. Z would be attending the award ceremony this time? I’m such a big fan of his research projects! If he could share his insights with me for just a little while, I would surely benefit endlessly! Oh, he was invited to give a speech by the organizers? That’s excellent! Hehehe, I’m really excited!”

It was unknown what the other party’s reply was. Chu Qianshu excitedly hung up the phone.

When she turned and saw Chu Cichen, her eyes brightened. She was about to speak, but Chu Cichen interrupted her, “Let’s get in the car.”

Hence, Chu Qianshu suppressed her excitement and entered the car. After the engine started, she looked at Chu Cichen, only to see that he already had his earphones in and was on a call to handle business matters.

Chu Qianshu’s suppressed excitement was almost bursting out.

In the end, she could only glance at Shen Ruojing, the only person who was idling in the car. She prodded her arm. “Oi, do you know who Prof. Z is?”

Shen Ruojing. “…Hmm?”

She gave a small uncommitted reply, and Chu Qianshu immediately gushed excitedly, “Prof. Z can be considered the leader of scientific research when it comes to biomedicine. A few years ago, the petri dish he developed became the world’s most advanced technology. My elder brother depends on that to grow the bacteria needed for the special medicine…Say, don’t you feel Professor Z is impressive?”

“…” These words caused Shen Ruojing to feel somewhat embarrassed. “Just normal I guess.”

Chu Qianshu. “?”

Her eyes immediately turned round from anger. “You are not capable, but why are you looking down on others? Don’t you know how awesome Professor Z is? Forget it, you won’t understand even if I talk to you about these things!”

Once again, she turned her head away angrily, and no longer looked at Shen Ruojing.

There was finally some peace and quiet.

Shen Ruojing curled her lips and looked at Chu Cichen. She could tell that he wasn’t busy at all. It was all an act!

…This was too over the top!

He clearly knew that his cousin was very naggy, so he actually ignored everything and let Shen Ruojing handle his cousin alone!

The car soon arrived at the award ceremony’s location.

Shen Ruojing and Chu Cichen followed Chu Qianshu and entered the banquet. Chu Qianshu then pointed at the seats outside. “The seats ahead have nameplates on them. My status isn’t high enough, so the family members I brought can only sit at the back. You guys should casually find your seats.”

After saying that, Chu Qianshu cast another warning glance at Shen Ruojing. “Also, this place is the award ceremony for the scientific world, not a place where you can randomly make a speech. I know you wish to proclaim something using the stage, but you better not act recklessly. Just forget it if there isn’t a chance to do so.”

After saying that, she hurried forward.

Chu Qianshu’s seat was in the third row.

Although she was impressive, she was still young after all, thus the number of projects she had participated in was limited.

Just when she got seated, she saw a nameplate of one of the seats in the first row – Professor Z.

Chu Qianshu’s eyes brightened.

The distance between her’s and Prof. Z’s seats was so close!

Ahhhhh~

She really had to thank the organizer!

She would be able to observe Prof. Z from all angles this way! She could also take a look at what this top scientist looked like! Would his head be bigger than normal people’s due to his brain? After all, his brain capacity was much larger compared to theirs!

Although Chu Qianshu was a top scholar, the difference between her and Professor Z was like heaven and earth. The disparity was too great!
