Chapter 100 The Darkness Under the Lights

Seeing the signboard of the pizzeria appearing in front of him, and also seeing Chen Can standing under the signboard, Wei Zexi put his arm around Cheng Jialu's shoulder, "I'm going to meet you for a drink when I have something to do today, so let's go first. "

Unexpectedly, when he got out of the car, Chen Can ran to the side of the car in surprise, and bowed to Cheng Jialu inside: "Dr. Cheng, hello!"

Wei Zexi looked at her in surprise, then at Cheng Jialu: "Do you know each other?"

Cheng Jialu didn't say a word, just nodded to Chen Can, signaling the driver to drive.

Chen Can hurriedly waved to the car, and shouted with a happy smile: "Goodbye, Dr. Cheng!"

Wei Zexi pointed at the car suspiciously, and then at Chen Can: "You know Jialu?"

"I just want to know why you are with Dr. Cheng, who I admire the most!" Chen Can looked at him with disdain, not to mention admiration, "Aren't you a famous rich second generation with a mixed degree? Climbing up to Dr. Cheng, a biochemical master at Columbia University?"

"What kind of attributives are you talking about? I'm just a jerk, and he's a top student. Anyway, I'm also an Ivy League graduate, okay?" Wei Zexi stretched out his hand depressed, "What to bring to your mother? Give it to me, Wei I can't come here temporarily because of something."

"What's the rush? We've made an appointment. I haven't seen Sister Weiran for a long time. I still want to talk to her more." Chen Can muttered, picking up a bag of vitamins next to him and handing it to him dissatisfied. .

"Vitamins? Let me go. You are still a student. Do you know how much vitamin raw material China exports every year? Last year, the United States sued China for dumping vitamin C!"

"Stop talking nonsense, do you think I'm bothering sister Weiran? Could it be that I asked sister Weiran to find a pharmacy after returning to China, and buy me a bottle of vitamins with Chinese medicine standards for two yuan for my mother?"

"Tsk, IQ tax." Wei Zexi hooked the bag of vitamins with his fingers, "You don't seem to be short of money."

"Of course it's not bad. I'm lucky. Dr. Cheng took care of me and let me work as a recorder in his laboratory. I get a lot of money every month."

"No, Jialu will take care of a silly girl who just came to the United States because of Chinese descent?" Wei Zexi sized Chen Can up and down with critical eyes, with doubts of "how can he be?"

"Everyone says I'm lucky. When I went to Columbia University, Dr. Cheng recommended me." Chen Can smiled like a flower, with a proud face, "I went to the research room a few days ago. The senior sister told me that Dr. Cheng was very touched after reading my resume, and said that it was really not easy for me as a girl from an orphanage, so he recommended me. Later, he asked me about the Zhaohui Orphanage. !"

There are too many girls from orphanages.Wei Zexi thought to himself, for example, the same goes for Unran.But it's rare to live a sunny life like Chen Can's. Her adoptive parents are really amazing.

Undyed personality is not so fun, but there is no way, she lives in this world and has carried too much past, so she can only be more tired and difficult than others.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but raised his hand to pat the back of Chen Can's head, and said, "Come on, sunshine girl, I hope you will be as lucky in the future as you are now."

"Yeah, I also feel very lucky to have come all the way to the present." Chen Can said, then turned his head to look at the direction Cheng Jialu left, and asked quietly, "Well, Young Master Wei, are you familiar with Dr. Cheng? "

"What do you mean by familiarity? We are friends by fate, okay? I caught him when he was fishing and drowned in elementary school. In middle school, we did experiments in groups of two. In the end, it exploded and burned. I was the one who dragged the injured him to escape. It came out! If it weren't for me, you biochemist Dr. Cheng would not be in this world long ago!"

Chen Can looked at him suspiciously: "Even in middle school, how could someone as powerful as Dr. Cheng fail the experiment and explode and burn?"

Wei Zexi looked up at the sky: "Well, did someone miss..." Of course he wouldn't say that he was the one who missed.

"Then let me ask you something." Chen Can approached him and asked expectantly, "Who is Dr. Cheng's girlfriend?"

"..." Wei Zexi never expected that he would be stopped by her question.

He rolled her eyes and asked angrily, "Isn't the outside world talking about him and Fang Aili?"

"No, my brothers and sisters told me that Dr. Cheng's ex-girlfriend is also a Chinese girl who came out of an orphanage, and it is said that she also studied projects with him."

"Really? A female doctor of biochemistry?" Wei Zexi suddenly appeared in front of Wei Zexi, wearing a white robe and a black frame, with an alcohol stove in his left hand and a beaker in his right.

"No, he was commissioned to research the product, but it seems that he has participated in a lot of content."

"It's really not easy. Jialu always only studies the projects he chooses." Wei Zexi was quite surprised, and asked, "What about the girl now?"

"I don't know. It seems that there was an accident in the research at the end of last year, and the girl never showed up again. Dr. Cheng was also seriously injured and didn't return to the laboratory until a few months ago. Are you his friend? Don't you?" Do you know that he got up from the wheelchair these days because of serious injuries?"

"What? He was injured so badly?" Wei Zexi then remembered, no wonder Cheng Jialu had been sitting and didn't drive by himself.In other words, the umbrella he had on hand should be used as a crutch.

Chen Can looked him up and down suspiciously, and asked, "Young Master Wei, don't say you don't know all of this!"

"I really don't know..." An indescribable and inexplicable panic slowly spread in his chest for some reason, as if Chen Can's words hid secrets that he dared not touch.

But he didn't know what those were, so he could only ask blankly: "What's the name of that girl he likes...?"

"It is said...it seems to be called Violet."

Wei Zexi called the driver and asked him to come pick him up.When the car arrived, he threw Chen Can's bag of vitamins in the back seat, got in the car and left, and asked the driver to take a taxi back.

After starting the car and driving for less than 500 meters, his eyes flicked across the roadside scenery, and a sharp white light suddenly flashed in his mind, which made him subconsciously slam on the brakes, and stopped abruptly.

brother.

Biochemical Laboratory.

The same girl from the orphanage.

Commissioned research projects.

Golden Retriever Glauber.

The fiancée's family is doing related business.

There was an accident at the end of last year.

……

A slight sense of fear turned into a huge uneasiness, which caught his throat.He felt that he couldn't drive anymore, so he could only turn off the car, sit in the car, and force himself to think carefully about the ins and outs.

It's really dark under the lights!I always thought it was a bastard foreigner, but I didn't expect that person could be him.

He thought of Cheng Jialu's weird words and expression, the expression that suddenly changed because he revealed the news about Unran, and what surprised him the most was Cheng Jialu's words——

"When I get her back, I'll introduce you to each other."

At that time, he was still secretly laughing at this sentence in his heart, thinking that it was meaningless for him to be too persistent.But at this time, it sounded again in his ears, like a thunderbolt in the clear sky, making him sit there for a while, without exhaling a breath for a long time.

It wasn't until the traffic police knocked on his car window, urging him not to obstruct the traffic, that he started the car again, drove to a place where no one was around, and stopped, forcing himself to calm down.

After a long time, he was barely sure that he could think normally, so he took out his cell phone and called Yan Weiran.

But the phone was clearly connected, Yan Weilan was pinched again, and only replied on WeChat: "Is there something wrong? International calls are very expensive."

Wei Zexi was so angry that his seven orifices smoked.He is suffering here, and he has no master, but she wants to save this little money, can this woman get better!

But what about WeChat?It's a long story with a lot of clues, he doesn't even know how to start, how to talk to a mobile phone?Isn't that the same as being a fool?

All kinds of thoughts were tossing and turning in his heart, and he was chaotic. In the end, he only sent her four words: "I'll find you."
