On the way.

Pei Yunge received a call from Zhong Shenglin and the rest, telling her that this was not forced. Lin Lanjun had petitioned for it.

“Ge’er, Grandma is also very concerned about the north of Continent K. Previously, when I came into contact with cases on the front line, Grandma’s students were infected and died.”

Lin Lanjun stood up and grabbed Pei Yunge’s hand, her tone soft. “How can these children have the research experience of a large-scale virus infection…”

Pei Yunge suddenly broke the silence. “You know that I don’t want you to go.”

Stunned, Lin Lanjun looked up and met with Pei Yunge’s pretty eyes, looking clear and serious.

The grandfather and granddaughter had never been in such a deadlock.

Seeing this, the Principal fell silent.

He knew that at Lin Lanjun’s age, as long as she went to the front line, her chances of contracting the virus would be much higher than others.

However, Lin Lanjun’s achievements in this aspect were recognized overseas and they desperately wanted Lin Lanjun to join a research organization.

Pei Yunge licked her lips. Her voice was a little dry and her tone was filled with unprecedented pleading. “Grandma, can’t you accompany me?”

Her memories of this world were of Lin Lanjun sacrificing her life for the country in her previous life. The original protagonist hid in her room and cried bitterly.

Before, Pei Yunge thought that she had stopped this from happening, but she found that the truth was not what she wanted.

“Ge’er, everyone has their own beliefs. What do we researchers believe in?” Lin Lanjun smiled at her.

Pei Yunge was silent for a long time.

She let go of Lin Lanjun’s hand. “What else can I say?”

“Ge’er, the laboratory will take safety measures,” the Principal comforted her from the side.

Pei Yunge took a deep breath unconsciously and hummed softly in annoyance. She turned to leave.

Behind her, Lin Lanjun asked her anxiously and carefully, “Ge’er, will you come and send me off?”

Pei Yunge only stopped in her tracks. “When the time comes, will Director Lin still lack people to send her off?”

With that said…

The atmosphere was cold.

Even the Principal did not expect to see Pei Yunge in a bad mood and throw a tantrum.

And the person she was upset toward was Lin Lanjun.

Lin Lanjun’s eyes were dark as she clasped her stiff hands together, worried that Pei Yunge would really hate her.

…

Outside the door.

The person who had a cold and ruthless expression just now was now squatting against the wall. Her wide hoodie covered her head, making her look very helpless.

She rubbed her head impatiently as a portion of her cold and fair wrist appeared from the sleeve of her hoodie. One could hear the regret in her low and cold voice.

“What are you acting for? Why are you throwing a tantrum at Madam Lin?”

If Huo Shidu didn’t come, he wouldn’t have thought that his child would squat by the wall and humiliate herself as if she had done something wrong.

It was funny and heartbreaking.

At this moment, the corners of the man’s lips curled up unconsciously as he walked out of the Principal’s office. He watched as a certain someone performed a self-splitting performance art…

Although I was very arrogant, this did not stop me from scolding myself.

“Little kid, if you continue blaming yourself, Older Brother’s heart will ache.”

Before Pei Yunge could react, she saw the man bend down carelessly and reach out to pull down her hat.

“…”

Pei Yunge never thought that the man would see her doing such an embarrassing thing.

However, before she could change the subject…

Suddenly, she heard him chuckle softly, as if he didn’t need her to hide any emotions. He only said, “Are you throwing a tantrum, my little girl?”

Before she could react, the man had already squatted down and suddenly hugged her gently, rubbing her head comfortingly.
