Chapter 124: It Seems My Face Is Still Somewhat Useful
After Sheng Qingyang finished talking with Gu Yue, he took his people back to the county town.
Song Chu took a nap and returned to the office, where she rarely saw Gu Yue in a daze.
After the breeding farm got on the right track, the two moved their offices here. Since Gu Yue often needed to read in her space, they shared an office.
“Gu, the Academic God, what are you thinking about so deeply?” Song Chu walked in and gently pushed him.
Gu Yue had noticed her when she came in. “I’m thinking about the vacuum compressor.”
Song Chu’s eyes lit up, and she pulled a chair to sit beside him. “Can the vacuum compressor be manufactured now?”
Gu Yue looked at her bright eyes and smiled. “Yes, the new material from the Steel Factory has been successfully tested and is just right for manufacturing the compressor.”
“Gu, the Academic God, you are indeed amazing.” Song Chu held his arm and shook it.
A layer of smile appeared in Gu Yue’s cool eyes. “It’s also thanks to the materials in your space.”
Song Chu smiled and said, “Although the materials are quite helpful, you are still more capable.”
The materials about the vacuum compressor in her space could not be produced using the technology of this era.
However, Gu Yue was able to first research new materials and then redesign the structure of the compressor to make it compatible with the current level of productivity. This was not something ordinary people could do.
Gu Yue chuckled. “Now you know how good I am.”
Song Chu shook his arm again. “Yes, yes, Gu, the Academic God, you are the best. You are my lucky star.”
If she hadn’t met Gu Yue, many of her ideas would not have been realized.
Hearing this, the smile in Gu Yue’s eyes deepened. “Then be nicer to me from now on.”
“Aren’t I nice enough to you!” Song Chu rolled her eyes at him.
Gu Yue found her eye-rolling inexplicably cute and couldn’t help but reach out to pinch her cheek. “You can be even nicer.”
By the time Song Chu reacted, Gu Yue’s hand had already been put down. This guy actually pinched her cheek. “Gu, the Academic God, you’re taking advantage of me.”
Gu Yue was at a loss for words. “Pinching your cheek is taking advantage of you?”
“Of course.” Song Chu also reached out to pinch his cheek. “No, I have to get back at you.”
She didn’t think too much about it, only that Gu Yue was teasing her.
Gu Yue could have dodged, but he still let her pinch his cheek. “That’s enough.”
Song Chu acted shamelessly. “No, I need to pinch the Academic God’s face more to get some good luck.”
After pinching, she also touched it. “Wow, Gu, the Academic God, your skin is really good.”
This guy’s skin was not only fair and resistant to tanning, but also very smooth and delicate to the touch. This was too much.
Having his face touched, Gu Yue’s ear tips turned slightly red. He grabbed Song Chu’s still-mischievous hand. “It’s natural, no need to be envious.”
“Gu, the Academic God, you’ve also learned to be bad.” Song Chuw anger him with a look.
Gu Yue smiled at her. “I learned it from you!”
Song Chu rolled her eyes again. “You don’t learn the good things, only this. Gu, the Academic God, you’re really something.”
The two joked for a while longer, and Gu Yue said, “By the way, Sheng Qingyang talked to me before he left today.”
Song Chu propped her head on her arm and looked at Gu Yue, asking, “What did he talk to you about? Don’t tell me he wants to poach you?”
She thought that if Sheng Qingyang really wanted to poach her Gu, the Academic God, she would blacklist him.
Gu Yue smiled with a bit of teasing. “Not poaching me, but poaching you.”
Song Chu pointed to herself. “Poaching me? Does he want to poach me to work in the county?”
◈◈◈
Gu Yue nodded. “Yes, he wants to establish an Economic Office and thinks you are a talent in this area, so he wants to poach you.”
Song Chu thought for a moment. “It does sound a bit interesting. Do you think I should go?”
“If you want to go, go. Although Sheng Qingyang is not very reliable as a person, he is quite reliable in his work.” Gu Yue knew she would be interested, which is why he brought it up. He respected her thoughts and decisions.
Song Chu asked with a smile, “What do you mean by not very reliable as a person?”
Gu Yue replied truthfully, “He likes to fool around with women, otherwise he wouldn’t have been sent to Nan County.”
He felt it was necessary to let Song Chu know about Sheng Qingyang’s womanizing nature first, lest she be deceived by him as well.
Song Chu chuckled. “I can see that. That guy has a playboy look, not a fuel-efficient lamp.”
“As long as you know what you’re doing and don’t get charmed by him.” Gu Yue said jokingly.
Song Chu raised her eyebrows and joked as well, “With a great beauty like you constantly around me, how could I be charmed by others?”
Gu, the Academic God, surpassed Sheng Qingyang in terms of appearance, temperament, and ability.
A smile formed at the corner of Gu Yue’s mouth. “What nonsense are you talking about? You are the great beauty. Don’t ruin my reputation.”
“Don’t worry, I won’t ruin your reputation. Although you are a great beauty, I won’t covet you or eat the grass at my doorstep, so you can rest assured and work for me. When you get married in the future, I’ll give you a big gift.”
Song Chu explained, fearing that Gu Yue would misunderstand that she had improper thoughts about him and then run away.
Hearing this, the curve of Gu Yue’s lips flattened.
In the past, he would have been relieved, but now he suddenly felt a little stuffy and uncomfortable in his heart. His voice turned a bit colder. “You don’t need to worry about that.”
He also had a strange feeling of having dug a hole and now burying himself in it.
Seeing that he seemed a little unhappy, Song Chu stopped joking. “Let’s get back to the main topic. If I go to the County Economic Office, what will you do?”
Gu Yue asked back, “What does this have to do with me?”
“Of course it does. You are my capable technical consultant. I can’t do without you now, Gu, the Academic God.” Song Chu said truthfully.
Many of the things she wanted could only be realized with the help of Gu, the Academic God.
Gu Yue’s mood, which had been a bit stuffy and depressed, instantly improved a lot after hearing this. He raised an eyebrow. “Are you saying you can’t do without such an easy-to-use technician?”
Song Chu chuckled. “Gu, the Academic God, you see through it but don’t say it out loud.”
Seeing his face darken a bit, she quickly added with a strong desire to survive, “Of course, I also can’t do without you. You are so pleasing to the eye. Seeing you every day makes me feel good while working.”
“When a man and a woman work together, the work is not tiring.” She and Gu, the Academic God, had a lot in common, and it was indeed easier and more comfortable to get along and work together.
Gu Yue laughed, “It seems my face is still somewhat useful.”
Song Chu patted his shoulder. “Of course, you have to remember that from ancient times to the present, it has always been a world that values appearance. You should be glad that you have such a handsome face.”
Gu Yue chuckled. “Then I really should thank heaven and my parents for giving me such a face.”
It seemed not bad to use his face to keep this woman by his side, better than her staring at other men because of their faces.
“You really should be thankful.” Song Chu nodded with a smile. She had always been a face fanatic.
She changed the subject and asked, “So, Gu, the Academic God, if I go to the County Economic Office, will you come with me?”
