Chapter 693: Painter

Hearing this passionate shout, the corners of Shen Li’s eyes twitched. She looked up at the laboratory and saw Yan Qiu and the other two looking at her with excitement, as well as at Shen Zhijin who had followed her in.

“Boss!”

Shen Li, “…”

She was sure that this was the most enthusiastic that they had called out “Boss” since she had come to the laboratory.

“Senior Brother.”

She walked in and greeted the three of them one after another.

It was as if Yan Qiu and the other two were seeing her for the first time. Their eyes kept darting back and forth between her and Shen Zhijin.

Normally, they would not have the guts to look at their boss so impudently.

But now, it was different.

In just a few days, their boss and the Little Junior Sister had become biological father and daughter. How could they be indifferent to such a big matter?

Shen Zhijin seemed to be more tolerant than usual. He did not say anything about their reaction and merely nodded to them.

He looked at Shen Li. “You can think more about what Professor Yang said just now. If you have any questions, feel free to ask me.”

Shen Li nodded.

Shen Zhijin then walked further in and entered his office.

Shen Li came to her seat. Just as she sat down, Yan Qiu and the other two quickly surrounded her.

“Junior Sister! When you left with the boss, did you go to investigate this matter?”

“Please tell me quickly, what happened exactly?”

“I thought the boss would never post something like this in his WeChat moments. I didn’t expect the first post to be so, so…”

Yan Qiu was racking his brain to think of a phrase when the office door opened again.

Shen Zhijin walked out with a book in his hand.

Yan Qiu and the other two immediately fell silent and stood properly.

Shen Zhijin placed the book on Shen Li’s desk. It was the experiment record book that she had left at home earlier.

“Thank you, Father.”

Shen Li said.

The moment she said that, Yan Qiu and the other two held their breaths.

Knowing was one thing, but seeing it with one’s own eyes and hearing it with one’s own ears was another!

Just a few days ago, Little Junior Sister had still been addressing him as ‘Teacher Shen’ along with them. However, in the blink of an eye, the way she addressed him had changed. How could this not be exciting?

“Yes,” Shen Zhijin replied. Then, his gaze fell on Yan Qiu and the others, and froze for a moment.

The three of them immediately became nervous.

Ah, had their questions just now been heard by the Boss?

Could it be that he felt that they were too gossipy and idle…

Just as they were full of worry, they heard Shen Zhijin say, “Your allowances will be doubled this month.”

Yan Qiu subconsciously said, “Yes, Teacher… Shen?”

He finally realized what Shen Zhijin had said, and the last syllable that he said suddenly rose. He was dumbfounded and shocked.

What had the boss just said? Their allowances would be doubled?!

This, this… So suddenly?!

Fu Niannian was momentarily stunned, but he immediately gave a response.

“Thank you, Teacher Shen!”

Tang Yi followed closely behind.

“Thank you, Teacher Shen!”

Shen Zhijin lowered his chin slightly, then turned around and returned to his office.

Until the door closed again, Yan Qiu and the others were still in a state of shock, unable to regain their senses.

After a long while, Yan Qiu could not help but ask, “… Junior Sister, what’s going on?”

Their Junior Sister had become the boss’s daughter, and now the boss suddenly wanted to double the allowance?

Shen Li thought for a moment and smiled.

“Consider it as a red packet for all three of you Senior Brothers. Speaking of which, we have to thank all three of you Senior Brothers for this matter of our recognition.”

Then, she briefly recounted the entire incident to them.

“… So, that’s basically it.”

Yan Qiu came to a realization.

“In that case, it’s fortunate that we asked a few more questions that day, and that Teacher Shen happened to overhear it. So, that’s why Teacher Shen started to suspect your identity?”

Shen Li pondered for a moment, and a faint smile flashed across her lips.

Actually, he should have noticed many hints from a long time ago.

That included her appearance, her allergy to peanuts, her talent in physics and painting…

However, for various reasons, he had not dared to entertain his suspicions.

Until Ning Haizhou had gotten a heart attack.

“So, I have to thank my Senior Brothers.”

Tang Yi suddenly clapped his hands.

“I knew it! I told you that Little Junior Sister and Teacher Shen looked alike. At that time, I thought that she was the boss’s relative. I didn’t expect–”

To think that she was actually his biological daughter, a blood relative.

Yan Qiu looked at her with a complicated expression.

“… Is that so? At that time, I even said that Little Junior Sister and the boss look exactly the same when they are angry…”

Father and daughter, how could they be different?!

“No matter what, for Little Junior Sister and the boss, it can be said that everyone is happy!” Fu Niannian rubbed his chin and chuckled, “In the future, if the boss gets angry, we can just send little junior sister to face him at any time. What’s there to worry about?”

Shen Li, “…”

“That’s right!” Tang Yi’s eyes lit up. “In the past, the boss took special care of Little Junior Sister, but in the future–”

He looked at Shen Li with gratitude, as if he could already see the bright days ahead.

“Little Junior Sister, thank you, thank you! Originally, I thought that I wouldn’t be able to graduate. But now, don’t you think that the boss will definitely let me graduate smoothly because of this matter?”

Shen Li, “…”

She glanced at the laboratory table behind him and reminded him seriously,

“Senior Brother Tang Yi, your data seems to be running. Don’t you… need to keep an eye on it?”

The smile on Tang Yi’s face instantly disappeared. “Oh!”

…

At 10 pm, Shen Li and Shen Zhijin left the laboratory together and returned to their home in Skyleaf City.

After Shen Li had washed up, she sat on the chair and dried her hair, bit by bit.

The phone on the table lit up. She looked at it and her gaze froze.
