Quick Wear: The soft cannon fodder turns into a heartthrob and seduce

Chapter 509 The Blind Girl Bound by Gratitude (2)

The air conditioning in the laboratory was very cold, and as soon as Mu Zhou got close, the cool air made him breathe a sigh of relief.

Because she hadn't been out for a long time, she looked pale and haggard, but the sun exposure gave her a healthy glow.

The weariness she once looked has faded considerably.

Mu Zhou held a white cane in one hand and rested the other hand naturally on Lan Ze's arm.

The contrast between the slender, fair fingers and the dark shirt is striking.

Lan Ze glanced down, his eyes flickering slightly.

Mu Zhou used to never touch him unless he was a germaphobe.

Even after she lost her sight, she didn't dare get too close to him, for fear of upsetting him.

Lan Ze was indeed somewhat surprised by Mu Zhou's proactive approach.

However, he didn't dodge it.

After all, Mu Zhou is blind at this moment, so he must feel insecure and will instinctively move closer to him.

He slowed his pace and gently led Mu Zhou to the office.

The office was large and quiet. Mu Zhou felt uneasy after sitting down, his fingers gripping the strap of his bag tightly.

Am I bothering you?

she asked.

Lan Ze shook his head, paused, then realized something and added:

"No, you wait for me here. I'll start my lunch break in two hours, and then we'll have lunch together."

After saying that, he left without hesitation.

Mu Zhou was the only one left in the office.

Lan Ze has always been a person with high IQ but low EQ. Or rather, he disdains to communicate with others and doesn't care about others' dissatisfaction with him.

Not to mention taking care of people.

For example, leaving Mu Zhou, who is blind, alone here for two hours.

After Lanzer returned to the lab, his assistant came to ask him:

"Director, has your wife arrived? Then you don't need to take a break with us at noon."

The assistant glanced up at the clock on the wall:

"There are only ten minutes left before you get off work. You should go have dinner with your wife."

Their lab has a lunch break schedule. Occasionally, if someone's friends or family members come over, they can just let everyone know and skip the schedule, often spending time with their friends earlier.

That's why the assistant said that.

Moreover, Lanze is the technical lead, so he doesn't need to be on the same shifts as them.

But to my surprise, Lanze refused in a calm tone:

"No need, just follow the normal schedule."

The assistant was stunned.

She remembered that her sister-in-law seemed to be blind...

Is it really okay to leave her waiting alone for two hours?

But Lanze was never talkative and didn't seem easy to get along with, so she didn't dare to ask any more questions.

After that, Lan Ze became completely absorbed in his work and forgot all about Mu Zhou, who was still waiting in the office.

On the other side, Mu Zhou, after sitting quietly for an hour, couldn't help but grope her way to stand up.

It wasn't completely dark in front of me; there was a blurry shadow.

Even so, she still stumbled around in the relatively unfamiliar office.

"hiss……"

As soon as she touched the door frame, her shoulder bumped into the shelf by the door, causing her to gasp in pain.

Just then, footsteps sounded ahead, and a figure was approaching.

Mu Zhou instinctively grabbed the person in front of him:

"Brother Lanze, you've finally arrived."

Without a word, she took his arm, looked up at him, and said:

"You haven't come back yet. I want to contact you but I'm afraid of bothering you. I need to go to the bathroom. Can you take me there?"

Fu Hanji froze, looking down at the girl who had suddenly leaned closer.

The girl tilted her head slightly, her small face with delicate and charming features, and a slight blush still lingering on her fair cheeks.

Her long hair was piled up at the back of her head and held in place with a wooden hairpin, with a few playful strands falling down her neck.

But those beautiful eyes were dull and lifeless, their gaze fixed straight ahead, as if lost in the void.

Fu Hanji, who was about to instinctively shake off the person, stopped himself from doing so.

He raised his other hand and waved it in front of the girl's eyes.

The girl actually grabbed his large hand:

"Brother Lanze, at this level I can see things waving in front of me."

Although she appeared to be smiling easily, her expression seemed somewhat strained.

Fu Hanji regretted his actions and for a moment forgot to tell her that she had mistaken him for someone else.

The girl spoke first:

"I think the restroom is on the right-hand side."

Fu Hanji hummed in agreement. Mu Zhou didn't notice anything unusual; she simply took his arm and was led to the bathroom by him.

Just then, Lan Ze's assistant, Yang Xue, returned from her meal and looked up to see a couple looking very intimate in front of her.

The man was tall and stood very upright.

Despite his handsome features, his eyes and brows conveyed a serious and cold demeanor, and his dark eyes were deep and detached.

His black shirt was thin but neatly pressed, with the buttons fastened to the top, giving him an air of seriousness.

The girl stood beside him, only reaching a little above his shoulder.

She wore a light pink plaid dress, looking fresh and elegant.

Unlike men, she had a fair and pretty face, and when she smiled, she was even more beautiful.

After seeing the two people's faces clearly, Yang Xue stood there, completely stunned.

If she wasn't mistaken, the girl was indeed Lan Ze's wife, Mu Zhou.

The man was Fu Hanji, the big boss of their laboratory and a legendary figure at her alma mater.

What, how could these two people...?

Yang Xue's gaze was fixed on Mu Zhou's arm linked with Fu Hanji's.

In her memory, this big boss, like her boss Lan Ze, didn't like to interact with people and always seemed to keep people at arm's length.

She stood there, somewhat disheveled by the wind.

On the other side, after arriving at the restroom, Fu Hanji suddenly realized that the girl next to him was blind.

In this situation, can she really manage on her own?

His handsome brows furrowed, and he was about to ask a question when he noticed a girl standing not far away.

She appears to be a lab assistant.

So he raised his hand to signal the other person to come over.

Pointed to by the big boss, Yang Xue hesitated before stepping forward.

Mu Zhou instantly smelled a familiar Chinese herbal scent:

"Yang Xue?"

She called out tentatively.

"Sister-in-law, it's me. Are you going to the restroom? Let me help you in."

Yang Xue looked at the restroom in front of her and realized what was happening, so she quickly said...

Mu Zhou waved his hand:

"No need, I've been here before, I remember the layout, I can manage by myself."

Yang Xue hesitated, then saw Fu Hanji's indifferent gaze sweep over her. Startled, she quickly said:

"It's alright, it's alright, let me help you inside."

Without saying a word, he grabbed her arm.

Mu Zhou could only smile and thank him, "Thank you for your trouble." Then she said to the man beside her, "Wait for me a moment."

Fu Hanji, who was about to leave, stopped in his tracks as if possessed.

He thought that he hadn't explained yet that he wasn't Lan Ze, so it was normal for her to come out.

With that thought in mind, he stood at the door of the women's restroom.
