Chapter 243 Li Qiao is sick and Shang Yu is angry
In a blink of an eye, another three days.
Li Qiao has been in the laboratory for the past few days, except for necessary activities, she basically never leaves.
Their experimental project has progressed considerably, with detailed array detections of several common and uncommon arsenic compounds.
Among them, there are two kinds of pathological reactions, which are quite similar to Guan Mingyu's symptoms.
In the afternoon of that day, Li Qiao leaned her head on the back of the chair and closed her eyes to rest her mind. Half asleep and half awake, the phone in her coat pocket seemed to be vibrating.
She took out her mobile phone and slowly opened the corner of her eyes, it was Li's father who opened the phone.
Li Qiao breathed a sigh of relief, swipe to answer, "Dad."
Li Guangming's gentle voice came, "Daughter, are you still in the laboratory?"
"Well, yes, Dad wants something from me?" Li Qiao rubbed her forehead with obvious tiredness on her face.
Hearing the sound, Li Guangming babbled a few words in distress at first, then cleared his throat, and got to the point, "Girl, please arrange some time this weekend and go out with Dad."
"Where are you going?" Li Qiao was a little dizzy, and she felt heavy even when she woke up this morning, so she asked lazily.
Li Guangming didn't make a fool of himself, and explained: "The weekend is the internal family meeting of the five giants of Nanyang. You attended it once when you were young, do you still have any memories?
Dad wants to take you there this year, what do you think? "
Oh, the Big Five meet.
To put it bluntly, it was an internal business exchange meeting in the name of money interests.
After all, they are the five major families at the end of the Nanyang pyramid, restraining each other and achieving each other.
Moreover, there are countless industries under each subsidiary, and a slight disturbance in the economic market can affect the income changes of each family.
Therefore, the five giants will gather at a specific time every year, probably to close the door to discuss the direction of making money next year.
Li Qiao half-closed her eyes, subconsciously declined, "Dad, I won't go, the lab is very busy and I don't have time."
Immediately afterwards, Li Guangming began a lengthy persuasion: "Tsk, no matter how busy you are, you won't be short of a weekend.
Daughter, you have hardly appeared in front of members of the Big Five these years.
After all, she is the only young daughter of our family. Now that the world is peaceful, it's time for you to go out and show your face. "
Back then, Li Qiao had been hiding behind the family's back because she was terrified of the kidnapping when she was seven years old.
Fifteen years have passed now.
The status of the Li family is becoming more and more stable, and the three sons of the Li family have achieved their own successes. With the power of the family in Nanyang, protecting Li Qiao is naturally a no-brainer.
On the other end of the phone, Li Guangming seemed to be very persistent, and he couldn't help telling: "Girl, Dad has a meeting first, you are ready to prepare, remember to ask for leave from the laboratory."
Li Qiao looked at the screen of the hung up phone, lowered her eyelids, and sighed heavily.
Is there any need for her to attend the internal gathering of the five giants in Nanyang?
Li Qiao was too lazy to think deeply, she left her phone on the table, leaned against the back of the chair, and planned to sleep for a while.
As a result, I fell asleep at half past two.
Li Qiao opened her eyes again and was woken up by Lian Zhen. She stretched her eyelids lazily, feeling dizzy.
Lian Zhen leaned over worriedly, looked at Li Qiao's slightly pale face, and asked, "Xiao Li, are you feeling unwell?"
Li Qiao drooped her cheeks listlessly, and her mind was extremely dull.
"Do you need to go to the hospital? Your complexion is not very good. You may be tired and sick because you have been so busy recently."
Lian Zhen frowned, and wanted to reach out to feel the temperature of her forehead, but because of the differences between men and women, she called out to a nearby female researcher.
The female colleague came over, touched Li Qiao's forehead carefully, touched herself with the back of her hand, shook her head, "I don't have a fever."
Li Qiao waved her hand weakly, and stood up on the table with a sigh of relief, "I don't need to go to the hospital, I just have a headache, I'll go back to the dormitory to sleep for a while, and come back later."
Lian Zhen immediately stopped her, "Don't come here, take a good rest first, I'll keep an eye on the progress of the experiment, and I'll let you know if there are any changes."
Li Qiao was really uncomfortable, but she didn't try to refuse anymore.
After she left, Lian Zhen temporarily took over part of the work she was doing.
...
Li Qiao returned to the dormitory, when the door was closed, her legs softened, and she directly pressed her forehead against the door panel.
Splitting headache, sore eye sockets, typical performance of lack of sleep.
Li Qiao supported the door frame to slow down, walked to the bed with heavy steps, and threw the quilt over her head.
The curtains were not closed, but she gradually fell into a sound sleep.
In fact, recently, in order to get up early every day, Li Qiao would not draw the curtains at night when she went to bed.
Because the blazing morning sun in the early morning can wake her up immediately.
This time, Li Qiao fell asleep for five hours.
At eight o'clock at night, the dim room can only see the halo of street lights dimly lit downstairs.
Li Qiao knocked on her forehead, and her headache eased a lot.
She sat up, hugging her knees and staring at the night window in a daze.
Recently, she didn't go back to the dormitory until two or three o'clock in the middle of the night every night, and went to the laboratory before seven o'clock in the morning.
Going back and forth like this, plus having to deal with all kinds of complicated chemical formulas during the day, is really exhausting physically and mentally.
The night outside the window was exceptionally quiet. Li Qiao sat quietly for a while, then reached out to touch her phone under the pillow, not knowing what time it was.
It was getting dark, and she had been sleeping all afternoon, but she forgot to contact Shang Yu.
But before he touched the phone, there was a sudden noise from the door of the dormitory.
Li Qiao frowned and turned her head away. She couldn't see well in the dark room. She lifted the quilt with one hand, and before she could leave, the door was kicked open with a "bang".
Li Qiao was on alert all of a sudden, squinting at the figures against the light at the door.
Breaking into the dormitory of the laboratory building at night is not a small courage.
The next moment, the lights in the dormitory were turned on, and the bright light made Li Qiao squint her eyes uncomfortably, and the sharply curly figure in her vision also gradually came into view.
Li Qiao was stunned, with a rare expression on her face.
At this time, Shang Yu strode into the room, and Liu Yun and the other three were still standing outside the corridor.
Under the bright light, shadows surged in the man's eyes, and thick shadows engraved on his cheeks.
Li Qiao just sat on the bed, her bloodshot deer eyes were still a bit sleepy.
Shang Yu paused, looking at her for a moment, with a serious and gloomy expression.
The little girl may have just woken up, the ball on the top of her head is crooked, and her hair is messily spread around her cheeks.
And she still maintains the gesture of embracing her knees with one hand, and her once bright and delicate face is covered with morbid haggardness, without her flamboyant and free and easy look, Shang Yu feels depressed.
At this moment, Li Qiao regained her composure, and before she could speak, she heard a man throwing her a cold question from the air, "If I don't come, will I have to hide my illness from me?"
Li Qiao opened the corner of her mouth and licked her dry lips, "No..."
When the words came out, she realized that her voice was hoarse.
Well, it was completely confirmed that she was sick.
