Chapter 1310: Better Not

Mu Anhan replied, "No matter what Lu Lu is thinking, it doesn’t matter to me anymore."

Gu Xiaozhan’s face turned dark again, "She’s always had ulterior motives towards me, and you don’t care?"

Mu Anhan laughed, "Mr. Gu is so clever now, how could she possibly win him over? Other than me, who else could do it?"

Gu Xiaozhan felt a bit aggrieved, "Yet I don’t see you winning me over either. Han Han, it’s been a long time since you paid me any attention..."

Mu Anhan was drinking water from her glass when she heard this and suddenly choked.

She coughed, her eyes teary, and when she glared at him, there was no threat in her eyes.

Gu Xiaozhan gently patted her back, "See! Not paying me any attention, it’s karma! Even drinking water makes you choke."

Once Mu Anhan caught her breath, she patted his shoulder, "Why do you sound like a nagging wife, always whining?"

"Are you calling me a woman?" Gu Xiaozhan seemed to catch onto something. "Then be the man at night, and teach me a good lesson, the kind that leaves me unable to get out of bed!"

Mu Anhan laughed uncontrollably, eventually managing to stop, "Alright, I’ve been a bit busy lately, I think we shouldn’t indulge too much."

Why did Gu Xiaozhan feel this was familiar? Oh right, it’s what he had said to her after getting the chip implanted!

This world is indeed difficult to deal with both petty people and women!

The ancients were truly wise.

"I need to get busy for a while." The implication was that once she turned on the computer, she’d have no time for him.

She then started working at the temporary desk, using her lunch break to continue her tasks.

Gu Xiaozhan glanced at her, thinking about how he’d deal with her that night!

Mu Anhan returned to the R&D department in the afternoon and showed the team the new progress.

Unexpectedly, Wang Kangyan came back.

He wouldn’t say where he had been, only mentioned taking a long rest.

He’s still the project leader and after holding a meeting, he left new employee Mu An in the office.

Once everyone had left, he closed the door and respectfully said, "Hello, President Mu! It’s been hard work for you during this time!"

Mu Anhan smiled, "You’ve worked hard too! My issues have caused Mr. Gu to lash out at you, I’m really sorry."

"Mr. Gu was just concerned for President Mu, I indeed didn’t consider things carefully." Wang Kangyan responded seriously, "Luckily, Mr. Gu has agreed for President Mu to continue researching the chip; now we can all be at ease."

Mu Anhan went through all the progress with him.

During the team meeting, Wang Kangyan pointed at the progress of two groups and pointed out bluntly.

"Vice Manager Lu, why has your group’s progress stalled? Is it lack of dedication to research or lack of ability?"

Lu Lu, who is considered a seasoned researcher abroad, didn’t expect to be outdone by a fresh graduate upon returning home.

She might look down on Ma Bin, but Mu An truly taught her a lesson.

"How do I know if Mu An’s progress is genuinely fast?" Lu Lu asked.

Wang Kangyan responded coldly, "You don’t need to know whether it’s true or not, once the second phase chip results come out, we’ll know who the real champion is."

After the meeting, everyone wanted to celebrate Wang Kangyan’s return.

They planned to go out to eat and drink after working overtime.

Mu An became the center of attention, with everyone eager to have him join.

But no one expected that Gu Xiaozhan would also attend the evening gathering.
