"Is the group leader in a particularly good mood because of some happy event?"
After Luo Yanqing left the lab, a researcher surnamed Wang nudged He Wei with his shoulder and asked.
"I bet it’s because Comrade Kang is visiting the institute."
He Wei said importantly, "Do you still remember that time before the New Year, when the group leader was in an especially good mood all afternoon and even let us off before 7:30?"
Researcher Wang thought about it and had a sudden realization, "Ah, that’s why!"
"It’s most likely that. Come on, let’s go back to the dorm to get our lunch boxes. We might just see Comrade Kang in the canteen," He Wei said with a smile, signaling to Researcher Wang to leave with him and also calling out to Wen Siyuan, and the three of them left the lab.
The canteen.
Having got their meals, He Wei and his colleagues were about to head to the table they had their eye on when they saw Kang Li smiling and talking to Luo Yanqing, entering the canteen with ease.
"You really hit the nail on the head!" Researcher Wang looked at He Wei as if he were a celebrity and said, "With such accurate predictions, you’re practically a psychic. If you set up a fortune-telling stall under the bridge, you’d probably do good business."
He Wei’s face changed, "Don’t jinx me!"
Researcher Wang, "What do you mean?"
He Wei whispered fiercely, "Are you pretending to be clueless? Haven’t you heard that the country has been cracking down on feudal superstitions for the past few years?"
Upon hearing this, Researcher Wang immediately showed contrition, "It’s my fault, my fault. I shouldn’t have spoken out of turn."
"That’s fine, we can talk about these things in private, but we must be more careful in public." He Wei said and added, "I’m no charlatan. It’s just that I like to observe and reason, which is how I guessed why the group leader was behaving unusually."
Wen Siyuan took a seat and had not said a word, focusing solely on his meal.
"In your institute, besides me coming to visit you every now and then, are there other family members who also come to bring warmth to their other halves?"
Having dinner at the canteen, Kang Li followed Luo Yanqing back to the dormitory and asked casually.
Luo Yanqing put away the lunch boxes and said, "There are, but very few."
