Chapter 98: I'm Back

Chapter 98: I'm Back

Zhang Jue's return to Site-17 once again caused a considerable stir. Those who were already reluctant to let him go hurriedly ask him about his situation.

"Advisor Zhang, I heard that the plane you were on crashed? No injuries, right?" These were the words from normal people.

"Advisor Zhang, my experiment has failed again. When can you come and guide me?" This is what those who are focusing themselves on research only.

"Advisor Zhang, come and play in my dormitory at night." These are the people who are looking for trouble.

"Advisor Zhang!" Experiment supervisor Clement ran all the way from the distance, hugged him, and looked at him for half a minute, and confirming that he was okay, he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Advisor Zhang, it's great that you're still alive. We saw the news on TV that the plane you were on was lost. I can't even explain how worried we were. Several of our male colleagues wanted to go jump off a building."

Hearing the first half of Clement's sentence, Zhang Jue had been somewhat moved, but his face was left with only a few black lines once that last sentence was out.

Kareena tugged at Yang Xue's shirt, "Sister Yang Xue, why is he so popular?" Yang Xue laughed, remembering those colleagues in Site-14.

The reason for Zhang Jue's popularity was naturally because of the information in his head at first, but after getting along for a long time, there was another reason. As a person, he seemed to have some kind of magic, although sometimes annoying, but you would always unconsciously approach him.

"Kareena, as long as you work well. One day you will be like him, to be recognized by everyone." Yang Xue said.

"Mmm!" Kareena, who is only a teenager at heart, nodded, "But why would a male colleague want to jump off a building?"

"Well..." Yang Xue thought for half a minute and could not understand the reason why. She shook her head, "I'm not sure about this. Probably Advisor Zhang had helped them."

Kareena was thinking about the reason for this when Zhang Jue suddenly greeted her, "Kareena, come here." The young girl didn't know what he wanted, but she walked over anyway.

Zhang Jue didn't look at her. Instead, he said to Clement, "This is the neighbor of my seventh granduncle's third niece. She will do some odd jobs here in the future. She is rather stupid, so you can guide her if you are free. If you are busy, just let her watch from the side."

Let's not mention how Zhang Jue used English to express this complicated kinship, but Kareena grunted at his words, probably because he had hit a sore spot with his "dumb" comment. Clement looked at Kareena and then at Zhang Jue, speculating on the relationship between the two. nove(l)bi(n.)com

Seeing that Zhang Jue looked serious and did not look like he was joking, he also looked solemn and said, "Don't worry. I will try to bring her with me when there are experiments."

After a few pleasantries, Zhang Jue took Kareena to the office of Dr. Bright, Head of Personnel. Kareena and Yang Xue were surprised to see that a monkey was sitting in front of a computer working.

It wasn't surprising to see anything in the Foundation, so neither of them raised a question.

Zhang Jue introduced them to each other, and only then did Kareena realize that this was one of those four big-name doctors.

"Will you ever come back here?"

"Of course." Zhang Jue said, "I still have a sister here."

"I heard that she fell into a coma. Do you need my help?"

Zhang Jue quickly waved his hand, "No, no need. Just act nicely and avoid any trouble."

Kareena asked again, "This afternoon, why did you introduce me to so many people? Is it because you are afraid that I will be bullied here?"

"All I can say is that you think too much." Kareena stopped talking and looked at Zhang Jue with a special look. Goosebumps crawling all over Zhang Jue's body. "What exactly do you want?"

Kareena untied her backpack and took out the contents. "This is for you."

Zhang Jue recognized that that was none other than the special version of the Scranton Reality Stabilization Anchor she was using.

He rubbed his hands together, his eyes glowing, "Hehehe, you wanted to give it to me?"

"Don't come closer! You're drooling, and it's disgusting, you know." The little girl stuffed the stuff into Zhang Jue's arms, then walked away without looking back.

"Hey, you really don't want it?" Zhang Jue shouted.

The little girl's head waved her hand in annoyance, "No, just give it to a stray dog if you don't want it. Remember to come to see your sister!"

Zhang Jue took the object in his hand and sighed. A few moments later, Yang Xue came from a distance, saw what he was holding, and couldn't help but smile.

Zhang Jue spread his hands, a helpless face, "I told you long ago, I'm too handsome. It's really a burden to be in my position."

The next day, Zhang Jue took one last look at Shirley and then stepped on the flight back to China with Yang Xue. Harvey and Hael came to see him off, and Kareena said she was experimenting with Clement, so she didn't come.

The little girl has some talent and love to learn, not to mention her parents' achievements. But it's more than enough to be a senior researcher. Zhang Jue wasn't worried about her future as long as she was safe. He hadn't been in Europe for very long, but there was always a sense of urgency, and he hadn't stopped for a moment.

With Yang Xue by his side on this return trip, he completely dropped his guard and slept on the plane until it landed. Yang Xue slapped him awake and wiped the saliva from his shoulder, and only then did Zhang Jue come to his senses.

Zhang Jue was in a good mood as he stepped back onto the land of his country. He faced the sky and opened his arms wide like someone who hadn't met their family in a long time.

I'm back!
