117: Chapter 117 This inspector is quite the actor!

Time passed just like the water in a toilet; with a gentle press, 'whoosh,' and it was gone.

In the blink of an eye, a month had passed.

On this day, Xu Hao was in his office organizing materials related to the 6th Generation Stealth Bomber.

The phone on his desk suddenly rang.

He picked it up and saw it was a call from General Manager Lu Zhiguo.

Xu Hao answered the phone, "Hello, General Manager Lu!"

Before he had a chance to ask what it was about, General Manager Lu Zhiguo said happily:

"Engineer Xu, the LG-Turbofan Engine is finished!"

It was clear that General Manager Lu Zhiguo was very excited, as his voice was exceptionally loud.

Xu Hao was slightly surprised; clearly, he hadn't expected Jiangnan Aviation to finish building the engine so quickly.

"General Manager Lu, your construction speed is quite fast!"

Xu Hao praised.

Only a month had passed, and they had already finished building the engine.

The speed was truly fast!

After all, the LG-Turbofan Engine involved many cutting-edge technologies.

Just grasping those technologies and theoretical knowledge would require a certain amount of time.

"Haha... We were just thinking of finishing it as soon as possible so Engineer Xu could check it over and see if the engine we built is qualified."

"Engineer Xu, do you have time to come over and inspect it?"

General Manager Lu Zhiguo asked.

With twenty hours of non-stop research and development day and night, it was naturally built fast.

However, this month was indeed tiring.

This short month seemed to take him back to the days at the Research Institute.

Now that the LG-Turbofan Engine was built, everything was worth it!

Xu Hao said: "I wouldn't call it an inspection."

"However, I happen to have time, so I'll come over today!"

Anyway, the Underground Research Institute had Professor Shen and the others keeping watch, and some technical knowledge had already been taught to them.

Xu Hao didn't have anything else to do, so he might as well go see how the engine they built turned out today.

"Alright! Then I'll wait for you at the company."

General Manager Lu Zhiguo laughed, exceptionally happy.

Hanging up the phone, Xu Hao called Wang Qian, and they went to Jiangnan Aviation together.

"Jiangnan Aviation? Is their engine finished?"

Wang Qian asked, carrying her small bag and following behind Xu Hao.

"That's right. General Manager Lu just called to say the engine is finished and asked me to go take a look."

Xu Hao replied.

He turned and glanced at Wang Qian.

She was dressed a bit differently today than usual.

Ever since Xu Hao told her she didn't need to wear professional suits every day, Wang Qian had been wearing all sorts of skirts in different styles.

Today, she was wearing a gray pleated skirt.

The hem slightly covered the top of her knees, revealing her two fair, straight, long legs.

She was also wearing nude-colored stockings, which made her legs look even fairer.

Xu Hao's eyes lit up slightly.

At this moment, Wang Qian looked a bit like the female lead of a youth campus idol drama—a beautiful, incredibly lively, and cute girl.

Xu Hao noticed.

Ever since he took Wang Qian out for an outing last time, she had become much more cheerful and lively, and the smiles on her face had become more frequent.

This comforted Xu Hao quite a bit.

She was just a young girl!

She should smile more; she was only cute and pretty when she smiled.

A cheerful heart brings good luck!

There was only one thing that Xu Hao couldn't quite figure out.

Recently, whenever this girl stood beside him, she would occasionally zone out, with a somewhat cute yet silly smile on her lips.

It made Xu Hao wonder at one point if she had been traumatized by something...

Arriving at Jiangnan Aviation, General Manager Lu Zhiguo came to the main entrance in person to welcome Xu Hao and Wang Qian.

They exchanged a few pleasantries and headed straight to the Jiangnan Aviation Research Institute.

Inside the Research Institute, the few researchers who developed this engine were already waiting there.

Having heard from General Manager Lu that a big shot would be coming today to inspect the engine, they immediately thought this might be the engine's designer.

They were originally about to get off work and rest, but suddenly they lost all interest in going home.

They eagerly stayed in the Research Institute early, waiting for the arrival of the designer.

Not long after.

The Research Institute's security door opened, and General Manager Lu Zhiguo led Xu Hao and Wang Qian inside.

The several researchers inside the Research Institute were stunned when they saw this.

The researchers: ???

Wasn't there supposed to be a big shot, a designer?

Why are there two young people?

Although these two young people—the man looking sunny and handsome, and the woman looking fresh and charming—were attractive, they were waiting for the designer of this engine!

Why did General Manager Lu bring two young people in?

And he even went to the company entrance to welcome them personally.

It looked like the girl was the man's assistant.

"Could this young man be the designer?"

The researchers thought to themselves.

However, they immediately dismissed the idea.

A designer this young? Who are you kidding?

If he could design an engine with such excellent performance, then they, as researchers, would have wasted their lives.

After thinking it over carefully, they guessed the identity of this young man.

"Probably an inspector."

The few researchers looked at each other and nodded.

A designer would certainly not travel thousands of miles just to come see the engine you built.

Being able to send an inspector over was already pretty good.

Thinking of this, the researchers immediately lost much of their enthusiasm.

They had given up their rest time, originally intending to see the true face of the designer.

Unexpectedly, all they got was an inspector, and feeling dejected, they had thoughts of leaving.

But thinking that they were already here, and since the person had traveled a long way, leaving now would be too disrespectful.

So, they had no choice but to stay in the Research Institute to accompany the inspector.

However, they couldn't muster much energy.

They had been busy all night and were already exhausted.

Now that they hadn't seen the designer, sleepiness washed over them, and they yawned from time to time.

General Manager Lu Zhiguo didn't know what the researchers were thinking.

He knew clearly that whether Jiangnan Aviation could participate in the subsequent R&D of the LG-Turbofan Engine depended entirely on whether Xu Hao approved of the engine they had built.

Therefore, he enthusiastically led Xu Hao to the newly built engine.

"Engineer Xu, this is the engine we built!"

General Manager Lu Zhiguo introduced, a fawning smile on his face.

This scene was seen by the researchers, which instead left them a bit confused.

"It's just an inspector, is it really necessary for General Manager Lu to act like this?"

The researchers whispered.

The others also nodded with disdain.

General Manager Lu was so polite and enthusiastic, yet this young man had a calm expression.

Looking at him, someone who didn't know better might think he was the designer of this engine!

"What a show-off!"

The researchers shook their heads.

He sighed softly, feeling a bit uncomfortable inside.

Sigh...

The real designer doesn't get this kind of treatment, but these so-called inspectors get all the respect and adulation.

Just like right now, this 'inspector' is being warmly served by General Manager Lu, with kind words, treated like an idol.

And that inspector still looks like it's taken for granted.

"Sigh, the life of a researcher is hard!"

Seeing this, the researchers felt a complex mix of emotions.
