Cannon had been starving for a long time, but he was a workaholic. Even though he was desperately hungry, he still had to read the letter first.
The letter was from Gu Qingyao.
Dear Senior, have you missed me, your rich Junior, lately?
I heard that you blew up the laboratory and were sent packing. Oh, that old fellow is just too mean… Actually! He’s too poor. He doesn’t have enough laboratories for you to blow up!
Why not look me up?
I’ll provide you with the best laboratory and the best house to live in. I’ll cook good food for you every day. It doesn’t matter even if you blow up the laboratory!
Perhaps, I might even be able to find a pretty wife for you!
Come and help me make some medicines, all right?
Very simple drugs to treat illnesses! I guarantee you will know how to do it.
A laboratory he could blow up, a pretty wife, a big house, good food…
…
There was an address written below.
Cannon was elated to discover that the letter was from his own Junior!
She was rich!
Very, very rich!
He had blown up the laboratory twice previously, and Teacher had almost chased him away, but Junior had settled it for him.
Every time the laboratory ran out of funding, the old fellow would ask Junior for money. He had seen it several times.
A laboratory, a pretty wife, a big house, good food!
These were very attractive to him. Cannon glanced at the address. Although he had never been to Beijing, since Junior was there, he would certainly go too.
Life without his Junior was just too difficult!
Cannon was wild with delight. He used the money that Qiao Xinming had given him to have a good meal, then went back to his dilapidated house to stuff his mess of books and papers into a bag. He stuffed three big bags full, then dragged them to the address that Qiao Xinming had left him.
Qiao Xinming almost fell over in fright when he saw the man. He was especially upset to hear that this fellow was his younger cousin’s Senior!
Since when did his younger cousin have a crazy Senior like that?
He was like a barbarian. Would the man frighten his younger cousin?
Qiao Xinming read the letter to confirm that this fellow was his younger cousin’s Senior and he was to bring him back to China in a few days.
Qiao Xinming ordered someone to clean up Cannon. He was really afraid that this fellow’s looks would terrify his delicate younger cousin.
If Gu Qingyao were there, she would have told him that she was used to it!
When she was with the medical group, she had seen Cannon in an even more frightening state.
Ten days later, at the capital’s airport.
Cannon and Qiao Xinming got off the plane together. Gu Qingyao was already waiting for them. Cannon was wildly excited to see Gu Qingyao. He grabbed his big bag and rushed towards Gu Qingyao.
“Junior! Junior…”
Cannon was flushed with excitement by the time he reached Gu Qingyao. “Junior, am I handsome? I’m so handsome! I’m really too handsome now, hahahaha!”
Qiao Xinming had especially gotten someone to dress him up. This was the first time Cannon looked so handsome.
Gu Qingyao smilingly said, “Yes, you’re very handsome! Senior, you’ve always been handsome. In the past, you were handsome in your own unique way!
“Let’s go! I’ve already prepared the place for you to live in. We’ll get you settled in, then I will cook for you personally and give you a good meal.”
Cannon could barely contain his excitement.
“Yes, yes!”
Gu Qingyao had already prepared the house. It was a little two-storey house, with a small laboratory.
“Senior, there is a small laboratory upstairs. You have to be careful not to blow it up!”
“Oh, don’t worry! I will never blow up my own home!”
Gu Qingyao: “…”
Qiao Xinming: “…”
