35: Chapter 35: The Research Institute Causes a Sensation

"Hey, Wang Yun, you guys are here too?"

Chu Ge carried two trays of food and sat down next to Dilireba Nazha.

"Yeah, Academician Chu, we're here to get a close look at the big star on the screen."

"Haha, come on, Nazha, try the food at our Research Institute."

"Hmm, okay, Aca-de-mi-cian Chu!"

Dilireba Nazha stared at him, enunciating every word clearly.

"Ha, haha."

Chu Ge looked at Wang Yun and laughed awkwardly; Wang Yun secretly stuck out her tongue.

Of course, Dilireba Nazha wasn't actually angry. She shot Chu Ge a glance and turned to whisper to Wang Yun.

By the end of the meal, everyone at the table had quickly become familiar with each other.

"Old Chen, is that Little Chu's girlfriend?"

In the distance, Academician Chen and several veteran figures from the Research Institute were eating together.

"Yeah, she's a big star. I asked my grandson about her; she seems to be crowned as the head of the Four Dan Actresses of Huaxia. She's a girl with a pretty good reputation."

"Oh, then she's quite a good match for our Little Chu!"

"Hey, Old Jiang, I thought you all would object, after all, Little Chu works in a unit like ours, while the other party is in the spotlight."

"Times have changed. Who says that modern scientific workers must remain anonymous?"

"Look at those famous physicists in the US, which Nobel Prize winner isn't a socialite?"

"That's true, Old Jiang, you've hit the nail on the head!"

"At first, colleagues from the Security Bureau tried to seal Chu Ge's personal information."

"Later, the big boss's meaning was that with the way Chu Ge is going, it's only a matter of time before he's a household name, so they decided not to bother."

"Of course, public opinion guidance is still needed; we definitely have to manage anything unfavorable to Little Chu."

"Exactly! Tell them, whoever bullies Little Chu or ruins his reputation, I, Jiang Donglai, will be the first to not let it slide!"

"And me!"

Well, just a bunch of protective professors.

Over on Chu Ge's side, the two finished eating quickly and rose to leave.

On the way out of the cafeteria, they kept greeting people around them until they reached the door.

"Sister Dilireba Nazha is truly beautiful!"

At Wang Yun's table, the youngest one, a boy who looked like a student, watched their disappearing figures and exclaimed.

"What do you mean 'Sister'? In the future, you have to call her Sister-in-law!"

"Ah? But, I'm still her fan. Won't 'Sister-in-law' feel a bit awkward?"

"What's the matter? Student Wang, are you saying that since you saw our Academician Chu win over your goddess, you're going to stop being a fan?"

Several slightly older researchers began to tease the young boy.

"No, no, not only will I not stop being a fan, but I'm an even bigger fan now. The boyfriend she picked is also my idol! Two idols in one!"

"Haha, look at you, acting like Ultraman, 'two in one'!"

"She is worth being a fan of!"

Wang Yun said leisurely from the side.

"Hmm?"

"What she said earlier about not knowing Academician Chu's status is true. I can tell she wasn't lying!"

"So, it must be true love!"

After Wang Yun finished speaking, she got up and left, leaving behind a few confused colleagues.

"Sister Yun's words are quite profound; I didn't understand them at all!"

The young boy wondered aloud.

"You're still young, little Ultraman cub!"

"..."

Chu Ge and Dilireba Nazha walked out of the Research Institute gate.

"Your colleagues are quite enthusiastic; it's not quite what I imagined."

"What did you imagine?"

"Just stiff, very serious types!"

"That was before. Now, with the continuous addition of fresh blood, the Research Institute keeps up with social trends."

"By the way, that kid who asked for your autograph just graduated and was hired this year; he's not even as old as you or me."

"Oh, really! Just a little brother!"

Dilireba Nazha laughed.

"What's the plan for the afternoon?"

"There's an event tonight where I need to perform on stage. Sister Li said it's very important, so I have to go rehearse the dance this afternoon!"

An unfriendly image appeared in Chu Ge's mind—a little hot dance, I like it.

"I'll accompany you; anyway, I've taken leave!"

"Great, great."

Dilireba Nazha happily linked her arm with Chu Ge's.

30 minutes later, at a rather large dance center in Yanjing, Chu Ge and Dilireba Nazha registered and pushed the door open to enter.

"This dance center has connections to many famous dance teachers. The sponsors are in a rush and demand high quality. There's no choice but to spend a lot of money!"

Dilireba Nazha pouted as she introduced it to Chu Ge.

"Especially regarding the dance instructor, Sister Li said they were specially hired from abroad!"

"Hmm, an afternoon is indeed too short. The backup dancers must be very professional to get results quickly."

Chu Ge said, appearing to understand but not quite.

"My Nazha, you're finally back. Quick, go get familiar with tonight's backup dancers first!"

Agent Sister Li walked over quickly. She was stunned for a moment when she saw Chu Ge, but then greeted him enthusiastically.

Chu Ge found a comfortable spot to sit down, prepared to enjoy the scenery.

"Nazha, you go get familiar with them first. The dance instructor hasn't arrived yet; the flight is probably delayed. I'll go out to meet them."

"Okay, Sister Li, you go ahead."

After saying that, Dilireba Nazha ran to the backstage, changed into clothes suitable for dancing, and walked onto the stage.

Canvas shoes, small hot pants, paired with a loose T-shirt. Dilireba Nazha's chestnut wavy hair was tied up casually, and she wore a black baseball cap on her head.

Beautiful and enthusiastic.

Dilireba Nazha was a beautiful sight on stage, and Chu Ge watched with great enjoyment from below.

Time flew by.

Dozens of minutes later, Sister Li returned.

Behind her followed a group of people. The leader walked in front with an imposing manner, followed by men and women dragging large black suitcases.

The newcomers all looked arrogant.

Chu Ge took a look; the leader had a square face, wore glasses, had squinting little eyes, and yellow skin.

"Don't know if he's from the Republic of Korea or R-Island, he's so sleazy." Chu Ge felt disgusted inside.

Sister Li waved at Nazha.

Dilireba Nazha jogged over. While running, she managed to sneak a glance at Chu Ge. Seeing this, Chu Ge quickly pursed his lips, but Nazha glared back at him.

"Teacher Cui, this is our Nazha. Please take care of her today."

Sister Li pulled Dilireba Nazha over and said to Yanjing.

"Hello, Teacher Cui, I am Dilireba Nazha. Please take care of me."

Dilireba Nazha bowed slightly, very politely.

"Hmm, I have heard of you back in our Republic of Korea. Ms. Nazha is very beautiful. Don't worry, I will definitely make you shine brightly tonight."

"Our Republic of Korea's stage directors and dance instructors are the best in the world. Compared to your China, it's not just a little bit stronger... We are a developed country..."

Listening to the translator nearby babbling these nauseating, arrogant words, Chu Ge couldn't sit still anymore.

He touched his cigarettes, got up, and walked toward the door. While passing by the crowd, he didn't forget to tease them.

"Mhm, mhm, seumida, everything you have is awesome, it's just that you guys are not that great..."

After saying that, he winked at Nazha and the others, and ran out to smoke.

Dilireba Nazha held it in, not daring to laugh, her lips pressed until they turned pale.

The translator, who didn't know if he was from Huaxia or the Republic of Korea, just glared at Chu Ge and turned back to continue translating Yanjing's "mysterious confidence."
