Ma Xiaoquan didn't take the train back to Phoenix because it was too slow.
So he and Yue Ting went to the underground world, and quickly transferred him to Phoenix City through the underground world's transmission device.
The whole process took less than an hour.
When Ma Xiaoquan opened the door, she saw Zhao Minglan following Aunt Hong with a spatula and learning how to cook. Seeing Ma Xiaoquan come back, she was stunned for a moment, then dropped the spatula and stepped forward to hug Ma Xiaoquan.
"Alas, men and women cannot be intimate~" Ma Xiaoquan pushed Zhao Minglan away.
Zhao Minglan pursed her lips and said dissatisfiedly: "It's not like we came back in advance to make a surprise attack."
Ma Xiaoquan smiled and said: "I'm afraid you don't want me to watch you learn to cook? That's right, your cooking is so unpalatable~"
"You still said~" Zhao Minglan raised his hand to hit Ma Xiaoquan, but Ma Xiaoquan shrank his head and said, "Okay, let's be serious, you have been back not long ago, right? How are the preparations for Wanzhuo Laboratory?"
Zhao Minglan frowned and said: "What do you mean, I finally came back. The teacher wanted to go to the market to ask for policies to at least solve the problem of the laboratory space for us, but the market has been shirk-free. I have searched several times.
They say it’s really annoying to continue researching. According to me, it’s better to cooperate with Professor Edward. They provide us with equipment, personnel and technology for free from abroad..."
Ma Xiaoquan smiled bitterly. In this era, everything needed to be approved for work efficiency. Not to mention the lengthy procedures, dozens of departments had to agree just to get a stamp. Under normal circumstances, if there were no special requirements, it would take half a year to complete such a thing.
rise.
"But it's okay. Yang Lei and I also feel that our knowledge is particularly lacking. The teacher also said that we should stay here to sort it out during this period, and it is also just in time to continue to guide us."
Ma Xiaoquan said: "Then you can't go to college?"
Zhao Minglan pouted and said: "You still have to go to college. I have figured it out. It's not like there are no universities in Phoenix. Although it is much worse than the capital, I am close to the teacher. Many people who don't understand can just ask the teacher directly.
Besides, when I was in the capital, I was an auditor at Capital University because of my participation in the experiment. Now it’s better. The teachers at our university in Phoenix are easy to handle and gave me an internal recruitment. I didn’t even have to take the exam, hehe.
, how about it, I have time at home now."
"Okay, okay, you are at home, I can go back to the dormitory to stay~"
Zhao Minglan pursed her lips: "Why are you always against me? Why can't you coax me?"
Ma Xiaoquan chuckled: "Sister Lanlan, actually I have noticed that Yang Lei seems to be interested in you, why can't you consider him?"
"I don't~" Zhao Minglan immediately refused, "Yang Lei's sister is that Zhao Haitang. Isn't it enough that she bullied Yuan Lan and me? When Yang Lei and I find a partner, aren't we just falling into the tiger's mouth?"
"That's true~ But I think that guy seems a bit paranoid. I suggest that if you really don't like him, reject him immediately and don't give him any thought, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous."
"I know~"
Zhao Minglan claimed to know, but in fact he didn't take Ma Xiaoquan's words seriously at all, which directly led to what happened to her later and almost destroyed her.
At this time, Aunt Hong brought the cooked dishes to the table, and the aroma instantly filled the entire hut.
Ma Xiaoquan snorted and reached out to the table to grab it. "Pah!" Aunt Hong hit the back of Ma Xiaoquan's hand with a spatula and said angrily: "Wash your hands~"
...
The next day, Ma Xiaoquan reported to the factory.
Inside Zhao Jianshe's office.
Looking at the pile of bills on the table, Zhao Jianshe didn't say much. He made a phone call and arranged for the accountant to come and take away the bills. Then he lit a cigarette, put his feet on the desk and started smoking.
"Ma Xiaohu, right..." Zhao Jianshe vomited and murmured, "Ms. Yue Ting, is she really your girlfriend?"
Ma Xiaoquan scratched his head: "Yeah, what's wrong?"
Zhao Jianshe said sourly: "What's so good about you kid? How can an overseas Chinese like you? How do you know me?"
Ma Xiaoquan narrowed his eyes and asked, "Director, why are you suddenly so curious about me?"
Zhao Jianshe raised his eyebrows and said, "What's wrong? Can't I ask a few questions? Anyway, I'm telling you, treat me well and send some imported tools to our factory tomorrow."
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhao Haitang came.
Zhao Haitang walked in arrogantly wearing the white tiger fur coat. When she saw Ma Xiaoquan, she frowned.
"Okay, stop nagging for now, I have something to tell you!"
Zhao Jianshe put down his foot and put out the cigarette butt: "What's the matter?"
Zhao Haitang glanced at Ma Xiaoquan.
Zhao Jianshe understood and said to Ma Xiaoquan: "Okay, Ma Xiaohu, you go to work first."
Ma Xiaoquan said oh, glanced at Zhao Haitang, and walked out of the office.
After closing the door, Ma Xiaoquan put his ear to the door and listened.
Inside the house, Zhao Jianshe asked: "What's the matter, are you so anxious?"
"What's the matter? It's not all about the Yuan Lan you have been thinking about."
"Ah? What's wrong with Yuan Lan?"
"What? When I told Yuan Lan, did you feel distressed?"
"Look what you said, tell me quickly, what's wrong with Yuan Lan?"
"No problem, why does she have a white tiger fur coat exactly like mine?"
"What, he has it too?"
...
Hearing the quarrel between Zhao Jianshe and Zhao Haitang in the house, Ma Xiaoquan was stunned and thought to himself, Yue Ting, Yue Ting, you are really not a fuel-efficient lamp.
Inside the house, Zhao Haitang said: "I don't care. I don't care where her coat came from. In short, whether you destroyed it for me or snatched it away, I don't want to see it again."
Zhao Jianshe made a loud noise: "You wear yours, and she wears hers. You two have nothing to do with each other, so why bother targeting her all the time?"
Zhao Haitang said: "Do you want her as a person?"
"This... okay, I'll get it done for you as soon as possible~"
...
After listening to the conversation between the two, Ma Xiaoquan was so angry that he did not go to work in the factory, but found an excuse to take half a day off.
He quickly rushed to Yue Ting's residence and kicked the door open.
Inside the house, Yue Ting was making tea. When she saw Ma Xiaoquan walking in aggressively, instead of being angry, she said calmly: "You're here. I knew you couldn't bear to leave me."
"Yue Ting, you bastard~" Ma Xiaoquan yelled, "Did you give the other white tiger fur coat to Yuan Lan?"
Yue Ting made an exaggerated surprise, then blinked her eyes and said innocently: "Ah, how did you know? The one I gave to her before was not snatched away by that Zhao Haitang. I was thinking about it, otherwise
Give her one, why, isn’t this okay?”
Ma Xiaoquan said angrily: "Do you know how passive you will make Yuan Lan when you do this? Do you know that Zhao Haitang is a crazy woman?"
Yue Ting put down the tea set and sneered: "Of course I know~"
"Then why are you still doing this?" Ma Xiaoquan asked Yue Ting.
Yue Ting raised her head, stood up, walked slowly to Ma Xiaoquan, and said, "I have to ask you this, my dear leader of Fenghuo?"
Ma Xiaoquan was stunned: "You know everything?"
Yue Ting smiled, the kind of person who smiled softly and said: "How could I not know that I gave you a chance to confess to me, but you didn't say it? Do you think that the situation you and Huang Chi set up was seamless?"
Ma Xiaoquan fell silent.
Yue Ting exhaled and said: "I don't understand, I am so sincere to you, but you don't turn to me? Is this how my Yu family makes you miserable?"
Yue Ting was right. Since she met Yue Ting, her Yu family has never posed any threat to her. Moreover, this time the entity traveled to the 1980s, it was still the Yu family that took the lead. Although Ma Xiaoquan initially
He was unhappy, but now that he thinks about it, the Yu family has indeed not done anything excessive to him.
"What do you want? Do you want me, or do you want my Yu family? Say it, say it?" Yue Ting grabbed Ma Xiaoquan's collar and shouted.
The next moment, a woman's voice suddenly came from Ma Xiaoquan's body, and it was very harsh.
"Let him go~"
Yue Ting was slightly startled, and when she lowered her head, she saw that Ma Xiaoquan's chest suddenly lit up with a light blue flame.
Yue Ting quickly let go of her hand and took two steps back alertly.
Xiaoshuang slowly emerged from Ma Xiaoquan's body, and then stood lightly in front of Yue Ting.
Yue Ting had met Xiaoshuang, but that was more than three hundred years ago. At that time, Xiaoshuang had not yet condensed into feet and was still suspended in the air. But now, Xiaoshuang looks like an ordinary woman.
Standing upright in front of her, of course, Xiaoshuang's "clothes" were still flames.
"You are... Fire Spirit Xiaoshuang..." Yue Ting looked at Xiaoshuang with wide eyes.
Xiaoshuang ignored Yue Ting. She turned around and asked Ma Xiaoquan: "Do you want to burn her to death? But she is very strong, so I have to put in some effort."
Yue Ting was startled and quickly took a step back.
Ma Xiaoquan shook his head: "No need Xiaoshuang, Yue Ting is my friend and my lover."
Yue Ting was stunned for a moment. She looked at Ma Xiaoquan with mixed feelings in her heart.
Ma Xiaoquan sighed and said: "The Yu family has never done anything wrong to me, but do you know that what you want is not what I want. I promise to help you, but I want to use my own way,
Instead of giving me a predetermined version, do you understand?"
Yue Ting closed her eyes, exhaled and said: "I understand, what do you want to do? Do you know that the fight for the Beacon Fire Order is imminent. If we don't take the next step, I'm afraid the Yu family will not be able to save it."
Ma Xiaoquan actually had a plan. He sighed: "You help me get Zhao Jianshe and Zhao Haitang, and I will help you get an alliance with the royal family."
Yue Ting laughed: "Deal! By the way, I will also help you with your leave in the factory, so that you will not be accused of being absent from work all the time."
