Addicted to My Cutie and Sweetie-Chapter 981: The Friendship Boat Holds Steady!

Ji Weitian’s vacation wasn’t wasted.

With the pressure off, her mind became especially clear.

Returning to the lab, what she felt was no longer pressure, but a strong sense of teamwork and a passion for the experiments.

Leng Jian made her a cup of coffee and placed it in front of her, "It seems Qin Nanyu knows you well. After a vacation, you’ve come back different."

"He’s indeed very attentive." Ji Weitian took a sip of the coffee without hesitation and winked at Leng Jian.

"You’re not bad either. If it wasn’t for the extensive research you did initially that laid the groundwork, I wouldn’t have had the chance to perform."

"..."

Leng Jian was stunned for a second, then laughed openly just like Ji Weitian.

Some things, when you want to let them go, aren’t as difficult as you’d imagine.

After the friendly exchange of compliments, everyone returned to their respective tasks.

Ji Weitian’s words were not just pleasantries. Her proposed idea had potential, but verifying this potential required a lot of manpower, resources, and time...

The thing they lacked most now was time.

When quitting time came, no one left. Everyone independently chose to stay and keep working.

For several days in a row, Liu Pan, the team leader, was no longer the one reminding everyone to go home. Instead, he regularly ordered takeout for everyone and reminded them to eat before continuing their overtime work.

"Teacher Ji, you’ve practically been living in the lab these past few days. How about going home early for some rest today?"

Everyone said they were working hard, but none was as diligent as Ji Weitian.

They couldn’t recall if Ji Weitian ever went home.

No matter when they arrived, Ji Weitian was there.

No matter when they left, Ji Weitian was still there.

Even an iron body couldn’t withstand such a workload.

Ji Weitian looked much more haggard these days, and everyone noticed, secretly feeling for her.

"I’m fine."

Ji Weitian was used to it, reached out to rub her neck, stretched to relax, and with the corner of her eye, glimpsed Zhang Lingying sitting next to her, she couldn’t help but sigh.

"Youth is great, even with late nights your skin still looks so fresh."

Zhang Lingying had just finished her tasks. Upon hearing her words, she mysteriously pulled out a box of Nature Hall Niacinamide Brightening Serum Masks from her bag.

"Don’t be fooled by my youth; good skin is cultivated. The Nature Hall’s Niacinamide Brightening Serum Mask has a high concentration of niacinamide, repelling dull skin and fine pores. It’s simply the savior for tired skin from late nights. I even restocked it today after running out!"

Ji Weitian: "..."

We agreed to both suffer from late nights, yet you secretly put on a face mask!

The boat of friendship can capsize at any moment.

"Don’t look at me like that. If you want to try it, I can generously give you this box. You’ll know once you try." Zhang Lingying handed the mask to Ji Weitian.

Ji Weitian accepted the mask without a word and didn’t forget to remind Zhang Lingying.

"Next time you have good stuff, speak up sooner!"

"Okay." Zhang Lingying readily agreed.

Remembering something, she turned to ask Ji Weitian, "Do you have time later? The app you gave me, I tried running it, but the result isn’t very smooth. I modified it several times, but it didn’t help. I’m not sure where the issue is."

Zhang Lingying is now learning computer science with Leng Jian. Besides physics experiments, for computer experiments, Ji Weitian is also trying to let her take over.

She just started and already did quite well, though her experience isn’t yet on par with the veterans.

Given time, she will surely become independent.
